James asked, “Are you here on Xachary's behalf?"
Lyla sighed softly, "He's stronger than Timaeus Sect's Leader, Xachary, now. He's probably trying to win us over to help him overthrow Xachary.
James immediately looked sat Lyla and said, "Win us over? If he has enough to offer, why not?"
Lyla was speechless. After a while, she said, "The Timaeus Sect is not like it used to be. Now that Xachary has dropped to the Yuraeceon Daelm Rank's Ninth Tribulation, chaos will break out pretty soon."
James exclaimed, "Wait a minute. What did you just say? How is he still the sect leader when his cultivation rank dropped?"
This time, James did not communicate telepathically. Instead, he said it out loud for Gladwin to hear as well.
Before Lyla could answer, Gladwin smiled and said arrogantly, "You're right. The Timaeus Sect's Leader must be at the Quasi Daelcon Rank. Now that his cultivation rank has dropped, he should surrender his position.
"Moreover, he schemed to have you enter the Forladtt Land and seal you away to be killed by the Galeat Wind so you can never reincarnate. It was a cruel and vicious plan."
James looked at Gladwin and said, "Weren't you also part of it, older man? You sent us into the Forladtt Land."
Gladwin said slowly, "That's right. However, I was deceived by Xachary. He believed you were from the Dark World and had to be eliminated.
"Although I'm the Timaeus Sect's Great Protector, my position is below him. Thus, I could only obey his orders."
Gladwin looked at Lyla, sitting beside James, and said, "Didn't he also deceive you? He asked you to select a few powerhouses at the Yuraeceon Daelm Rank to enter the Forladtt Land, then ordered you to kill Forty-nine. Fortunately, he was strong enough and had encountered great boons. Otherwise, the consequences would've been unpredictable."

Lyla looked at Gladwin and said coldly, "You don't have to waste time trying to win me over. You two are birds of the same feather."
Gladwin replied calmly, "I know you're disappointed in Xachary, and it made you disgusted with the Timaeus Sect. However, there's a secret I'd like to tell you."
James and Lyla exchanged glances without saying a word.
Gladwin sighed, “Do you remember Goldwein City? Xachary told you that a group of Dark Beings from the Dark World massacred everyone in the city, and you were the only one that survived. He said your whole family died at the hands of Dark Beings. He couldn't bear to see you freeze and starve to death, so he brought you back to the Timaeus Sect. He repeatedly claimed he was the reason for your success, right?"
Lyla looked at him and said indifferently, "Stop beating around the bush."
Gladwin said solemnly, "Dark Beings didn't massacre the city. The main perpetrator was Xachary."
Lyla immediately stood up and shouted, "Do you have proof?"
"Are you familiar with this?" Gladwin raised his hand, and a round jade pendant appeared.
Lyla's eyes widened after she saw the pattern carved onto the jade pendant. In disbelief, she said, "That's my family's heirloom, the Taen Pendant."
Gladwin nodded, saying, "Your whole family and citizens died because of this pendant. All because there is a trace of Historial Power within it."
Lyla was aghast by the information.
James frowned and asked, "So, to obtain the Historial Power within it, he killed an entire city?"
Gladwin nodded, saying, "It was a massive city with millions of citizens. Your father was Goldwein City's Lord. However, the city's overall cultivation rank was too low, and they were located at the edge of a Micro Genesis World."
James looked at Lyla and asked, "For the sake of some Historial Power, he took millions of lives. Is that what someone righteous would do?"
Lyla glared at Gladwin and said, "Give it back!"
Gladwin smiled faintly, then waved his hand, allowing the jade pendant to float toward the colorful lights.
James reached into the barrier, took the jade pendant and examined it.
The jade pendant was beautiful, and its pattern was extremely eye-catching. Moreover, he could sense the majestic Historial Power contained within it.
James raised his head and met with Lyla's gaze. Seeing her expression, he quickly handed it over.
