Chapter 4557
James knew the aura he sensed before was not from
Madenia. He was slightly puzzled by the situation but did not press her about it.
"Whether you're Waleria or not, you must get away from here as soon as possible. It's very
dangerous. I'll take my leave first."
After giving a kind reminder, James was about to leave.
However, Madenia tugged his arm and said, "You can't leave."
James stared at her and asked, "Why not?”
Madenia said sternly, "You have to protect me. I'm still very weak right now and can't
travel through the Endlos Void yet. I need you to protect me for a while. Naturally, I'm not
asking you to do it for free. I'll give you whatever you need as payment. Whatever
Supernatural Power, Empyrean herbs, or legendary weapons you need, I'll give to you."
"Really?" James looked at her dubiously.

Judging from Madenia’s aura, she had just entered the Ancestral God Rank. How would
someone at her cultivation rank have what he needed?
Despite his doubts, James knew there was something unusual about Madenia since it was
impossible for an Ancestral God to enter a shattered universe and set up such
a powerful formation.
James suspected that even if she was not Waleria, she might be someone closely related
to Waleria.
'What do you need?" Madenia stared at him.
Although Madenia looked young, she had a mature demeanor.
James rubbed his chin and replied, "I need a lot of Empyrean herbs. The higher the quality,
the better. If you have Acmean herbs, I would appreciate it more."
"Deal."
Madenia agreed without hesitation. Then, she said, "From now onward, you’ll be my

bodyguard for a while. I’ll give you an Acmean herb for now. After some time, I’ll give you
more."
After speaking, Madenia casually waved her hand, and a red fruit appeared before James.
The fragrant fruit exuded a red glow and powerful aura.
'This is an Acmean Berry that contains abundant Acme Power."
Madenia causally tossed the fruit over to James.
James accepted it ecstatically and put it away. Then, he said smilingly, "You sure are
generous. You gave me an Acmean Berry without much hesitation. You have yourself a
deal. I'll protect you from now on. Tell me what you need me to do."
"I just need you to follow me and help me deal with some enemies when necessary," said
Madenia.
She knew James was not very powerful. However, his physical strength was at least
comparable to the Caelum Acme Rank. She was in a tough spot and needed a powerhouse

like him to move around more safely.
Her strength would eventually recover as long as she could buy enough time. She might
even reach a higher cultivation rank than before casting the Forbidden Art. If that were to
happen, even the Daemonium Sect’s Leader would not be a threat to her.
James leaned over and whispered, "Are you Waleria? The Daemonium Sect’s powerhouses
have already left. Since I've already agreed to protect you, you should at least tell me the
truth, don’t you think?"
Despite her youthful appearance, Madenia had an outstanding figure. James was slightly
distracted by her faint fragrance when he got close.
"Get lost."
Madenia placed her palm on James' face and shoved him away. After creating distance,
she said calmly, "Remember who you are. You're my bodyguard and should stay three
meters away from me. You're not allowed to get close to me."
"Yes, yes. You’re the boss and have the final say,” James replied nonchalantly.
Major sects and families hogged most quality Empyrean herbs. Therefore, James was
willing to accept and endure her behavior since he could acquire Acmean Herbs and
Berries.
