Chapter 7068 Thea asked curiously, "So you made an excuse and took a risk just to tell me this?" Youcef nodded and replied, "Yes. I wanted you to know that if my father threatens you with James, you don't have to worry about it. James has already taken control of the Gate of Mystery. He can leave whenever he wants.” After hearing his words, Thea immediately formed a plan. She looked at him and said, "I'm starting to doubt whether you're really Xanthakos’ biological son." Youcef took a deep breath and said calmly, "He has been blinded by power and is already too far gone. Since I can't stop him, I can only try my best to try at least to save his life." Thea’s vigilant glare gradually eased. Then, she remarked, "You're different from your father. My husband was right about you." Youcef turned around with his hands behind his back and said, "There is no time to lose. Use this opportunity to leave. If my father discovers that James isn't trapped within the Gate of Mystery, he'll definitely capture you and use you to threaten James.

"I know how much you weigh in James' heart. If anyone dares to touch you, James will not stop until he has revenge. What's more terrifying is he actually has the strength to wipe out an entire sect. "I'm not just doing this to save my father but also the Qadeer Sect and myself." Thea looked at him and said smilingly, "But if I leave, you'll be blamed for it." Youcef replied calmly, "I've long been deemed a rebellious son in his heart. Getting scolded one more time isn’t a big deal. I hope you remember this act and throw in a few good words in front of James to sway him to spare my father and the Qadeer Sect." Thea squinted at his words. Youcef gestured and said, "Go ahead." However, Thea did not move an inch. This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

Youcef said anxiously, "Time is of the essence! If you don't leave now, my father will read James’ message. By then..." Thea interrupted him, "I trust you. However, I won't leave. Now that I know James is safe, I can make arrangements for him using my identity as the Wyrmscale Source’s young lady." "As for your kind gesture, I've noted it and will definitely repay you in the future." While speaking, she waved her hand, and a dazzling, multi-colored light was released. Her Primordial Spirit in the void was immediately defeated under the assault of Youcef's Primordial Spirit. Thea spat out a mouthful of blood, then quickly merged with her defeated Primordial Spirit. Youcef looked at her in disbelief. The next moment, he quickly fused with his Primordial Spirit. After the match concluded, the two returned to the Qadeer Palace. Xanthakos, who had been closely monitoring the battle, finally felt relieved when he saw them appear before him again. 'Thanks for going easy on me." Youcef bowed to Thea. "You reckless and rebellious son. How could you harm my guest!" Xanthakos suddenly became enraged. "Go to the Punishment Hall immediately, endure three thousand divine whips, and be imprisoned for ten epochs." Youcef did not argue. He looked meaningfully at Thea, then turned and left. Only then did Xanthakos hurriedly approach Thea. "I apologize. My son is obsessed with cultivation. It's thanks to your mercy that he wasn't injured. If you had cast your Three Treasures, he definitely wouldn't be a match against you." Thea smiled at Xanthakos' flattery and said, "I think your sanctuary is a pretty suitable place to cultivate. Can I borrow it to recuperate?" Xanthakos was slightly startled but responded smilingly, "Sure! I wouldn’t hesitate to demolish this place if you asked." Ignoring Xanthakos, Thea floated onto the cushion Xanthakos had just vacated. Then, she sat cross- legged and slowly closed her eyes.

Watching the lotuses blooming behind Thea, Xanthakos parted his lips to speak. However, after a brief hesitation, he swallowed his words and turned to leave.
