Montemar Empire, The Chinese City, in a eting room.
Lisa, who was with the Divine Powerhouse from the Haldrem Empire, sat on the left side of the eting room.
Seth and the young people from the Guardian Villages were on the right, talking quietly.
As for the chanical Domains, they found a corner and stood silently.
The old leader sat in the center of the room, looked at Aiden and Caron, then slowly glanced at everyone else, and let out a quiet sigh.
No matter if it was the strong people from the Haldrem Empire, the young people from the Guardian Villages, or the chanical Domains, they all stood apart, not working together.
Only Johnnie could control all these strong people. If anyone else tried, they wouldn’t be able to bring them together.
The old leader took a deep breath and spoke in front of everyone.
"According to our information, the Six-Ard Demon in the Dark Forest is about to act again. This ti, their target is definitely us."
Lisa, who was closest to the old leader, nodded. Her expression was serious, and there was a hint of hatred in her eyes as she replied.
"We still don’t know why the Six-Ard Demon Borg returned to the Dark Forest."
"Johnnie hasn’t co back yet. If the Borg attacks suddenly, we’
ll have to temporarily give up the Montemar Empire and The Chinese City."
Hearing Lisa’s words, the others fell into deep thought.
They had all seen how powerful the Six-Ard Demon Borg was. If it wasn’t for Johnnie using the Immortal Art, they would have been seriously injured—or even killed.
Seth said in a low voice."I believe in our savior. Maybe when he cos back, we’ll find a way to deal with this crisis."
As soon as he finished speaking, Aiden sneered and let out a cold laugh.
Everyone’s eyes imdiately turned to him.
Aiden spoke slowly."Johnnie? We don’t even know where he’s hiding now. By the ti he shows up, maybe the whole Montemar Empire is already destroyed."
Seth took a deep breath, looked at Aiden, and frowned as he asked.
"May I ask, do you have a better idea?"
Aiden smiled. His eyes were full of greed as he looked at Seth and the others.
"Since you haven’t accepted Johnnie as your master, why not follow ? I can lead you to a safe place, help you get stronger. Then, in the future, we can find a way to deal with those Six-Ard Demons."
Honestly, Aiden was pretty jealous of Seth and the others.
These young people from the Guardian Villages were still young. With proper training, they could all beco strong.
Plus, Aiden and Caron had seen clearly when Johnnie fought. These young people could use a special formation that boosted Johnnie’s power.
If Aiden and Caron could control them, they would beco much stronger.
When the powerful Six-Ard Demon Borg showed up, Aiden and Caron had actually watched from the shadows for a long ti.
They didn’t want to take the risk of fighting the Borg, and they also didn’t want Johnnie to die.
After all, if Johnnie died, they would lose a perfect soul transfer partner.
At first, Aiden and Caron had planned to interfere with the Borg. But they didn’t expect the Borg to give up on killing Johnnie and instead return to the Dark Forest.
That’s why Aiden and Caron ca to this eting — they wanted the old leader to give up the Montemar Empire, so Johnnie wouldn’t be killed by the Six-Ard Demons in the near future.
"What do you think? Think carefully — following Johnnie isn’t as good as following us." Aiden said with a smile.
But Seth didn’t even look at him. Instead, he spoke firmly to the old leader.
"Wherever Johnnie is, that’s where we are."
Lisa sighed. She had already sworn loyalty to Johnnie and signed a soul contract. As long as it wasn’t broken, she couldn’t go against him.
So Lisa also said."I’m with you too."
As for the chanical Domains, they had no choice at all — they were completely controlled by Johnnie.
At this point, seeing that everyone else in the room was waiting for Johnnie to co back and make a decision, Aiden’s expression turned dark.
He spoke coldly."A bunch of fools. When that Six-Ard Demon called Borg shows up, it will kill all of you. Then it’ll be too late to regret!"
"Waiting for Johnnie to make a decision? That’s a joke. When he cos back, he’ll probably just order you to run away. Why waste ti?"
Caron nodded silently and said."You’re right. Even if Johnnie cos back, he might not be able to stop the Six-Ard Demon. It’s better to start thinking about a retreat now."
The old leader hesitated. The power of the Six-Ard Demon Borg was truly terrifying — even beyond his expectations.
It hadn’t been long since the last attack on the Montemar Empire. Even with Johnnie’s talent, it would be hard for him to beco strong enough in such a short ti.
But if they gave up the Montemar Empire, it would an all their previous efforts were in vain. It would also let the Six-Ard Demon take more land.
And it would be much harder to take back the Montemar Empire later.
The old leader looked tired and kept thinking.
Just then, Dylan ran in excitedly and shouted to the old leader.
"Johnnie is back!"
The old leader’s eyes suddenly lit up, and he looked toward the door.
Seth and the others looked just as excited. Lisa didn’t show any emotion on her face, but Aiden and Caron looked at each other and gave the slightest nod.
Soon, Johnnie stepped into the eting room.
He first looked around at everyone in the room. When he saw Aiden and Caron, his eyebrows imdiately furrowed.
"Why are you two here?" Johnnie asked, clearly annoyed.
Back when he was fighting with Lisa and the others, it was Aiden and Caron who had interfered and tried to stop him at every turn.
Also, during the attack by the Six-Ard Demon Borg, the two of them didn’t show up at all.
Johnnie was already really annoyed with Aiden and Caron. He was looking for the perfect chance to get rid of the two of them once and for all.
"Hmph, why couldn’t we be here? Johnnie, you’re back just in ti. Everyone is waiting for you to decide to give up the Montemar Empire." Aiden said.
Johnnie looked at him and replied coldly."Give up? Who said I want to give up the Montemar Empire?"
"People like you, who run away when there’s danger — I think you should just leave far away. Otherwise, you’ll bring down everyone’s morale."
Johnnie wasn’t holding back. If Aiden and Caron were people who fought for Earth and protected humans, he would have respected them.
But they weren’t.
"You! Are you crazy?" Aiden looked shocked, but he quickly figured it out.
"Johnnie, it’s fine for young people to care about their image, but you should know when to act. Right now, if you just order everyone to run, no one will bla you." Aiden said in a lecturing tone.
Johnnie didn’t even want to waste ti talking to him. After dealing with the threat from the Six-Ard Demon in the Dark Forest, it would be Aiden and Caron’s turn.
Seeing everyone’s eyes on him, Johnnie made his plan clear.
"The enemy is strong, but not strong enough for us to just give up and run."
"We won’t run. Instead, we’ll attack them when they least expect it." Johnnie said firmly.
He had already made up his mind on the way back.
The Borg had suddenly left, and it was clearly connected to the Dark Hollow Cave under the Haldrem Empire.
He needed to find out what was going on. Because Johnnie felt that both the Bio-Humans and the Lizardn had clear goals.
The Lizardn first appeared for the Dragon Pulse, then joined the Six-Ard Demon to destroy the Divine Stele of the Way of Heaven.
The Bio-Humans wanted to destroy the Thunder Pool and take over the Thunder Realm.
Also, Johnnie clearly knew his most important attack thod was the newly mastered Thunder Cultivation — Destroying the Evil.
He had to kill enough Six-Ard Demons before fighting Borg directly, so he could build up the power of Thunder Cultivation — Destroying the Evil.
And repairing the Evil-Slaying Thunder Sword also required killing a lot of Six-Ard Demons.
If they just tried to defend, and when Borg showed up, Johnnie couldn’t use Thunder Cultivation — Destroying the Evil, that would be the stupidest move ever.
Also, Johnnie was sure that the Six-Ard Demon Borg definitely didn’t expect him to attack first.
"What?" Aiden looked shocked.
He spoke without holding back."Johnnie, are you crazy? You almost got killed by Borg before."
"How can you have the courage to say you want to attack first?"
Aiden didn’t want Johnnie, his soul transfer partner, to be killed by the Six-Ard Demons.
Was Johnnie hit by sothing and lost his mind?
Aiden was a little nervous now. He looked at Caron and saw the sa worry in his eyes.
Johnnie waved his hand and said to the old leader."I think so people who don’t matter should leave this eting room."
"Otherwise, if the enemy finds out our plan, it’ll be a problem."
As soon as he finished speaking, Aiden’s face turned dark. He didn’t need to think twice — he knew Johnnie was talking about him and Caron.
At this mont, Aiden wanted to stop Johnnie from acting recklessly, so he took a few deep breaths and tried to calm himself down.
"Johnnie, don’t be reckless. The most important thing now is to stay alive. Only when you get stronger later can you take revenge." Aiden said urgently.
Johnnie stared at Aiden for a while, and then suddenly said.
"Do you really care about my safety?"
