The Almighty Dragon General

Chapter 7143 Zdravko drew a long breath and said, "Everybody has both good and evil tendencies, and the line between good and evil is often thin.

"For instance, take Xanthakos-before ascending as one of the Five Path Emperors, he wasn't inherently malicious. As one of the earliest beings to enter Zymurgy, he represented the epitof virtue, striving for selfimprovement and reaching the zenith of cultivation." James squinted and murmured, "So good and evil are essentially contextual and based on circumstances, environment, power, status, and identity?" Zdravko looked at James and nodded in response.

James asked, "Are you saying I might follow in Xanthakos' footsteps? I will becself-serving, manipulative, power-hungry, and eventually abandoned by my loved ones?" Zdravko lowered her gaze and bit her lips, offering no response.

James sighed and said, "I must admit, I do resort to deceitful tactics in power struggles as well. However, that's only against opponents.

"If I had the choice, I would never oppress or exploit other living beings. I will not lose myself to the allure of power." James looked at Zdravko and said firmly, "You needn't fear I will beclike him." Zdravko agreed, "I trust you. otherwise, you wouldn't have grasped your own Daoism.

"However, you haven't stated your real purpose in participating in the fight over the Forty-Ninth Heaven's control." James laughed, "There's no doubt that you're indeed Lyla. You're aloof but very observant and wise." Zdravko was at a loss for words.

James said calmly, "You must also be doubtful of my actions. However, you need to understand if I do not get involved, the Forty- Ninth Heaven's situation will never improve. Goyo and Xanthakos are very scheming individuals. Withoutgetting involved, they would not have had a confrontation as I would be the sole winner." Zdravko looked at him in shock. "Weren't you always uninterested in being the Chosen One and taking over as the SuprPath? Then, why fight to becthe ruler of the Forty-Ninth Heaven?" James said calmly, "You're no longer the Timaeus Sect's Elder or Jaemora Empire's Commander. Right now, you're the Greater Realms' Path Emperor. Surely you're not that naive, right?" Zdravko parted her lip but could not find any words to refute him.

James said, "The others may not have heard of the Leere Tribulation, but as one of the Path Emperors, you surely know about it, right?" Zdravko's eyes widened in shock. "Are you here to resolve the Leere Tribulation?" James shrugged and answered, "What else? I've already secured the Greater Realms' Spiritual Providence, captured Yehria, and partitioned the Tai Chi World and Great Historical Land away from Zymurgy. My family has been reunited, and I can finally live carefree. Why else would I forsake such a good life and get involved in Zymurgy's affairs?" Zdravko asked, "Can you really prevent the Waitara Path's Soremsia from returning? Can you stop the Leere Tribulation?" James shrugged and replied. "I don't know. However, if the Waitara Path returns and the Leere Tribulation happens, my wife and my second body will die. I will also be in big trouble. The worst is that the Greater Realms will be in chaos." Zdravko took a deep breath.

James solemnly, "Between Goyo, Xanthakos and me, I'm the one that doesn't have tto choose.

"I had to get involved in their battle. Only by seizing the Wuia Palace and obtaining the Path Designation Bead will I becthe second SuprPath. It's the only way I can fight the Waitara Path's Soremsia." Zdravko looked at James for a while, then closed her eyes. Ultimately, he did not really have a choice.

For Goyo and Xanthakos, their conflict remained a power struggle, while James and Zymurgy engaged in their battle over Daoism.

Even if Goyo and Xanthakos fought fiercely to the end, the worst outcwould be the return under the Waitara Path's command. However, James, being the Chosen One, would not even have the chance to submit to him.

That was the main reason James had to seize control over the Wyrmscale Source and merge them with Xanthakos' Marauder Army before launching an attack on Goyo's Daonus Realm.

As soon as Goyo Daonus Realm is attacked by James' forces, Goyo and Xanthakos will also engage in a decisive battle centered around the conflict.

Zdravko suddenly opened her striking eyes after it dawned on her.

"You lead the Wyrmscale Source's forces to attack Goyo's Daonus Realm. I'll return to my Daonus Realm and mobilize troops to strive from behind." James waved his hand and said, "No. As one of the Five Path Emperors, you can't reveal your stance yet." Zdravko asked puzzledly, "Why not?" James sighed and explained, "You have a more important task. I need you to reach out to Emperor Cosimeon and Emperor Stavros, who also each have a Daonus Realm. The three of you should establish a new alliance." Zdravko looked at James and said, "I might be able to convince Emperor Cosimeon, but Emperor Stavros...

"He won't listen to you. After all, his Soremsia is your archenemy." James replied smilingly, "I'm aware it's Xayvion. However, that's precisely why he's more dependable now." Zdravko looked at him perplexedly. "Why is that?" "Because he is smart," James stated, then turned away.

Zdravko stood there, stunned by his words.
