The Omnipotent Lord sneered, stood up, and looked down at James. He pointed at James and said, “I’ll give you two choices, James. You can either submit to me or die.”
James did not take the Omnipotent Lord’s threats seriously. He calmly looked at the Omnipotent Lord and responded, “Submit to you? I might consider it, if you can make it worth my while.”
“...”
The Omnipotent Lord was taken aback. He did not expect James to comply so easily and was prepared for James to challenge him in a fight to the death over the position of the new universe’s Lord.”
For a while, the Omnipotent Lord remained silent.
After a few seconds, he sorted out his thoughts and grinned. “Of course, I’ll make it worth your while. In the new universe, those with strength will be given authority. If you can defeat my subordinate, I’ll give you the position of the Deputy Universe Lord.”
The Omnipotent Lord called out, “Briscoe.”
“Yes, My Lord.”
Immediately, a man stepped forward. It was a middle-aged man about 1.8 meters tall. He wore a white robe and seemed quite refined. Despite his elegant look, he radiated an imposing aura.
The Omnipotent Lord looked at James and said, “This is the current Deputy Universe Lord, Briscoe Haldor. He’s been assisting me in managing the new universe. Also, for your information, he is a Nine-Power Macrocosm Ancestral God who’s almost at the peak of his rank.”
The Omnipotent Lord had two reasons for summoning Briscoe. Firstly, he wanted to test James’ true strength. Secondly, he wanted to see if James was really willing to comply with his orders.
In case he was wrong, and the Omnipotent Lord truly had improved his strength and raised many powerhouses using his own means, then he would be a very valuable ally and worth siding with.
James concluded that it was necessary for him to fight Briscoe. Moreover, he would have to ensure everyone knew about it to attract the Watchers’ attention. By doing so, he could get the Watchers to reveal themselves.
James briefly took stock of his strength. When he fought against the Watchers in the Dark World, he only displayed strength around the middle stage of a Nine-Power Macrocosm Ancestral God.
On the other hand, Briscoe’s cultivation rank was in the final stage of a Nine-Power Macrocosm Ancestral God. James planned to lose the fight and leave unhappily. The Omnipotent Lord would definitely try to recruit him despite the outcome.
After a brief thought, James said, “Alright. Since you think so highly of me, I won’t disappoint you. We can have the battle in a thousand years’ time.”
