Chapter 4689
A few core members from major families, sects, and races had already arrived at the
Verde Academy.
Most of those that showed up were from the Verde District. Meanwhile, only a handful of
powerhouses from different districts attended.
In the Verde District, there was a relatively powerful universe close to the district's central
region. The occupants in the universe were pretty strong, and they had many Caelum
Acmeans.
A mysterious woman sat in a tavern inside one of the universe's cities. She wore a black
dress and a bamboo hat with a veil covering her face.
"Cough, cough."
The woman covered her mouth as she coughed. She lowered her hand and saw her palms

stained with blood. Her hidden face was white as a sheet.
"James will become the new Head of Tempris in another hundred years. The Verde
Academy has been keeping a low profile, and it's the first time in so long for them to hold
such a public event. I heard they've also sent invitations to powerhouses from the other
districts."
"Who’s James? What’s his origin? Why have I never heard of him before?"
Many customers sat in the tavern and discussed the Verde Academy's grand event that
would take place a hundred years later.
The woman sitting in the corner was shocked to overhear the name in their conversations.
Shocked, she thought to herself, 'James is about to become the Head of Tempris? Could it
be him?'
The woman was none other than Saachi.

After Saachi absorbed a portion of Xuri's Demonic Power in the Yhala Realm, Xuri had
been on a constant hunt for her life. Over the years, she had fled to many different
districts. However, Xuri could track her down no matter where she hid because of the
Demonic Power she had absorbed.
Even so, Saachi refused to release the Demonic Power she absorbed from Xuri.
Although her Damon Eyes were nearly perfect after absorbing the Demonic Energy, Xuri
was a powerhouse that had entered the Quasi Chaos Rank.
Xuri would have entered the Chaos Rank if Saachi had not intervened and absorbed some
of her Demonic Energy.
Despite her strength improving by leaps and bounds, Saachi could not face such a
terrifying powerhouse.
During this period, Saachi had several confrontations with
Xuri. However, every battle ended with fleeing with injuries. This time, she had suffered
severe injuries and had to hide to recuperate. Otherwise, she would die if caught by Xuri.

"If this new Head of Tempris is the James I know, I can go to the Verde Academy to ask him
for help. Although the Verde Academy has no powerhouses at the Chaos Rank, they have
quite a few at the Quasi Chaos Rank. As long as I enter the Verde Academy and get James’
protection, I’m sure Xuri will back off.
"I just need to hide for a while and treat my injuries. Then, I’ll cultivate to grow stronger.
By then, I won’t need to fear Xuri anymore."
After overhearing the discussions in the tavern, Saachi suddenly devised a plan.
She wanted to head to the Verde Academy for protection.
Saachi took out a Genesis Stone and placed it on the table as payment. Then, she
disappeared from the tavern.
She appeared in the starry sky and rushed to the universe where the Verde Academy was
located without hesitation. Even though she was far from the Verde Academy, she could
transverse through the void easily.
With her current strength, she could make it to Verde Academy before James’ succession
ceremony even without the help of the Verde District’s Teleportation Formation.
