Chapter 2312
Unable to withstand any longer, James roared. At the same time, he appeared before Quintina and raised his hand,
his powerful Palm Energy made the enemy stagger backward.
“What the hell?”
The Protector’s face darkened as he said coldly, “Do you have a death wish? Get lost!”
Looking at the Protector who was enraged, James said, “Master Protector, do we really have to sacrifice so many
people to resurrect Lucifer?”
“Yes.”
The Protector said, “Master Lucifer is a once-in-a-lifetime genius. Once resurrected, he’ll overwhelm the cultivators
of the Three-Thousand Worlds. This is an order from the higher-ups. Which department are you from?”
James took a deep breath. He knew that his identity was about to be exposed. However, he could not just simply sit
back and watch Quintina die.
He forcibly calmed himself down as he looked at the Protector. Then, a black token materialized in his hand. As he
catalyzed the Demonic Energy inside his body, the token radiated an overwhelming power.

“What?”
The Protector was stunned. The moment he faced the token, his legs trembled.
Thump!
Unable to withstand it any longer, his knees gave way. Everyone else knelt on the ground as well.
Quintina and the others were dumbfounded.
“What?”
As she looked at the token in James’ hand, she could not feel any pressure at all since she did not have any
Demonic Energy. The token only targeted the Demon Race and those who cultivated the Demonic Arts. However,
she felt she had seen it before.
“Oh, yeah!”
She suddenly stood up.
When the Ancient Clan encountered a great crisis, someone appeared with this token in hand and resolved the
matter.
“M-Master…”

The Protector knelt on the ground, his body shivering.
James never thought that the token given to him by Marcello would be this terrifying. Even a powerful figure as the
Protector would kneel upon sight.
James took a deep breath and said, “Release them now.”
“L”
The Protector was in a bind.
“Master, we went to great lengths to resurrect Master Lucifer. Now that we are about to succeed, how can we
simply give up?”
James never thought that the token could only bring him this far. After some thought, he asked, “Do we really need
fresh blood to resurrect him?”
Kneeling, the Protector said, “Back then, His Majesty the Demon Emperor knew that his life was coming to an end.
Before his demise, he used his supreme Demonic Energy to seal away his own blood kin, Lucifer Menachem.
“As time passed, the seal’s power gradually weakened. However, the seal cannot be undone easily, so we learned
an arcane art. With their blood, we can break the seal and resurrect Master Lucifer.”
Hearing this, James roughly knew that Supreme Demonic Energy was needed to release the seal. However, as they
did not have enough power, they needed the blood of all these cultivators.

Supreme Demonic Energy?
He thought about his body that was formed using the Demonic Lotus. Meanwhile, the Demonic Lotus was
a priceless treasure of the Demon Race which possessed unbelievable Demonic Energy.
After thinking for a moment, he said, “I’ll try releasing the seal. Do not kill them for now.”
“Master, you…”
The Protector raised his head to look at James. He did not know James’ identity, nor did he understand why
someone among his subordinates would carry a token that held such terrifying Demonic Energy. Although he had
no idea what the token was, he only knew that a truly powerful figure of the Demon Race was worthy of possessing
it.
“I’ll go give it a try. Kill them only if I have failed.” Holding the token in his hand, even his volume was louder now.
“Understood.”
The Protector did not dare disobey.
James said, “Alright now, stand up and talk.”
The Protector stood up.
James turned and glanced at Quintina. Then, he did not linger long and turned to leave.
