Chapter 4242
No one expected James to suddenly save them. Many more lives would be lost if he had
chosen not to interfere. Since it was a tournament, James would have a greater chance of
winning if there were fewer opponents.
Everyone's attention was on James, trying to figure out what he was thinking.
Did he really save them because of Princess Leilani?
While figuring out his intentions, everyone was also in awe of James’ strength.
The Light of Acme came into being after the death of someone who was at least at a Terra
Acmean. Even a powerhouse like Deshawn was forced to flee to survive.
However, James was not celebrating that he was able to temporarily seal the Light of
Acme. Instead, he wore a solemn expression and was worried about how the Light of Acme
seemed to have developed sentience. Perhaps the Light of Acme had already been refined
and was being used by another creature as a weapon.

The possibility emerged in James' mind, and as soon as he thought about the formation,
he strongly felt that everything was a conspiracy.
Not only was James proficient in the various Path of heaven and earth, but he also had an
excellent intuition. He looked at the surviving creature and asked, "What did everyone
think about the Light of Acme?"
Many of the creatures were unable to come up with an answer to his question.
"W-What do you mean?”
"It's just a Light of Acme. What else is there to say? Did you notice something strange?”
The creatures exchanged puzzled glances, unsure why James would ask such a strange
question.
James looked at Deshawn. On the surface, Deshawn was the strongest individual present.
He was the first in the
Chaos Ranking's Gold Rank that detailed the ranks of all the Quasi Acmeans. His spot at

the top of the Gold Rank meant he was the strongest Quasi Acmean around.
"Why are you looking at me?" Deshawn was slightly taken aback.
After giving it some thought, Deshawn said, "Actually, it does seem a little strange..."
James looked at him, waiting for an explanation.
Deshawn continued, saying, "Under normal circumstances, a Light of Acme would not
attack living beings, nor would it approach us carelessly. However, the Light of Acme just
now seemed to be self-aware and was actively hunting us down. In addition, it even knew
how to hide within space and attempt to ambush us. It was as if someone was controlling
it."
Everyone’s expression immediately changed at his words.
'That's impossible, right? Who could possibly control a Light of Acme?"

'Yeah, Don't scare us."
'The Light of Acme disappeared earlier. Could it still be hiding and waiting for a chance to
attack?"
Many of the creatures immediately went on their guard.
James looked at Deshawn and praised him, saying, "As expected from the Gold Rank's top
cultivator, your analysis is pretty good."
Deshawn looked at James and asked, "Did you also notice something abnormal?"
James scanned the surroundings, trying to sense the Light of Acme that had vanished. At
the same time, he nodded gently and said, "From the moment I entered the Sky
Islands, I felt like something was amiss."
Curious, Yente asked, "What do you mean something was amiss?"
Leilani was also curious about his implication.
A handsome-looking young man sneered and said, 'You're overthinking things, Wyot. What
could be wrong with this place?"
James looked at the creature that spoke. It was a young man from the Soul Race.
