Quincy quickly rolled out of bed and headed to turn on the lights.The moment the lights turned on, her acupoints wear sealed, and she could not move.Despite the lights being switched on, she could not see anyone.“Finn, this woman isn’t bad.“She’s James’ first girlfriend and seems to be one of James’ lovers. The two have a pretty good relationship.”Quincy could not see anyone but heard a voice inside the room.“Who are you, and what do you want?” she asked coldly.However, no one answered her.Her vision went black, and she was put into a sack.The Three Wanderers had captured Quincy and were continuing on with their plan.They kidnapped Quincy, Cynthia, Tiara, and Scarlett, who just came back after getting off work.The three were fourth-ranked grandmasters, so they could easily kidnap the ladies.Unfortunately, Callan’s True Energy had dissipated, and he was just an ordinary old man. Thus, he could not sense the intruders nor did he know that his newly accepted appren
While James was worrying about his physical condition, his phone suddenly rang, interrupting his thoughts.“Who’s calling so early in the morning?” he murmured.Then, he walked over to the bed and picked up his phone from the side table.The caller was Callan.He picked up the phone and asked, “What’s wrong?”“There’s a problem.” From the other end of the call, a worried voice sounded.James immediately got worried and asked, “What happened?”“They’re gone.”“Who’s missing?”“They’re all gone. Come over.”James was anxious. He hung up the phone, turned around, and was about to leave.“What’s the matter, Honey?” Thea was startled by the noise and woke up. She sat up on the bed, using the blanket to cover her body and only revealing her head.Her hair was messy, and there were a few hickeys on her neck.She had not completely woken up and was still in a daze.“Callan called saying something happened. The girls have disappeared. He asked me to head over. I’m not sure what ha
While speaking, they walked out of the villa.The two headed to the garage and drove directly to Cynthia’s place.Soon, they appeared outside Cynthia’s villa.Callan was sitting on the sofa in the living room.James walked into the house and asked, “What happened?”Callan said solemnly, “When I got up in the morning, I wanted to call them to practice. However, I knocked on everyone’s doors for a long time, but no one answered. I realized something was wrong and broke into the rooms, but they were all empty.”“They’re all gone?” James was taken aback.Callan nodded and said, “Mhm. Cynthia, Quincy, Tiara, and Scarlett, who came back at night, were all gone. I checked the rooms and found traces of intruders last night.”“Let’s head upstairs and have a look.”James turned around and headed up the stairs.Callan and Thea followed behind him.James went to Quincy’s room first.The balcony door was open, and the lights inside were on. There was also a book on the table.Callan sa
Thea proposed to travel to the Mount Thunder Sect to find Jackson.James was worried because Thea’s current situation was quite special.She had the Spirit Turtle’s blood in her body and could not have any mood swings. Plus, she could not use her True Energy and even had the Malevolent Sword with her.However, the Mount Thunder Sect had always stayed hidden from the world. None of the members from the sect used phones. Even if they had phones, there was no signal where the Mount Thunder Sect was located.James also could not call Jackson to ask him to rush over to help.Thea smiled and said, “Don’t worry, I’ll be fine. I know my limits. You can’t leave now, and I’m the only one available to run the errand for you.”James thought for a while and said, “Alright. I’ll contact the Blithe King to prepare a military plane to escort you to the Mount Thunder Sect.”“This matter can’t be delayed, so I’ll head out immediately.”Thea did not say much. She picked up the Malevolent Sword
James could not refine the Spirit Turtle’s core right now.He did not plan to refine it right now, anyway. He planned to make plans after completely recovering from his injuries and restoring his True Energy.James waited patiently at Cynthia’s villa.He firmly believed the person who kidnapped Quincy and the others would call again.While waiting, he did not remain idle.Using the privileges in his hand, he called the surveillance authorities of the villa district, but no one was captured on camera.Only the surveillance outside the villa captured a black vehicle.James immediately called the Blithe King and asked him to track the car's whereabouts with all his connections.In a blink of an eye, it was already noon.The Blithe King called back.“James, I’ve checked the vehicle information. After leaving Cynthia’s place, it headed to another villa. It stayed about another half an hour before leaving. Then, it left Cansington. I’m unable to pinpoint its current location.”“Wh
James could vaguely remember.When he was at the Cadens’ mansion in the Capital, his grandfather had mentioned Xyla.He said something about how they should not have threatened him with Xyla.As for what exactly happened, James did not know.Newton fell into silence.After a while, he replied, “Let’s wait until he personally tells you the whole story. It’s not my place to tell you.”James took a deep breath.Judging from Newton’s tone, he seemed to know about what happened thirty years ago.However, since he was unwilling to talk about it, James did not force it.“Do you know who kidnapped Serena?” asked James.Newton shook his head and said, “I don’t. I slept very soundly last night, and when I woke up, it was almost noon. I didn’t see Serena around and thought she had gone out, so I didn’t think anything of it. If you hadn’t come to inform me, I wouldn’t have known that she was kidnapped.”James did not inquire further since Newton did not know much about it.Now, he just
Thea arrived in the suburbs of Terentville and was not too far away from the Mount Thunder Sect. Looking at the Blithe soldiers behind her, she ordered, “Wait for me here.” “Understood.” They nodded. Holding the Malevolent Sword in hand, Thea lifted her head to have a glimpse of the snow mountain in the distance.Two days ago, a fierce battle had broken out here, and the entire region came under the relentless bombardment of combat aircraft. However, heavy snow had covered almost all traces of the battle that took place. Thea began walking in the direction of the snow mountain in the distance. Though she initially wanted to climb the mountain, she decided against it after contemplation. She would not be able to traverse tens of kilometers even if she took a whole day. Besides, the situation in Cansington was dire. She was worried that the enemy would call James, who would be provoked into action to save Quincy and the others. Not only that, James was in a weak condition. If
The Demonic Sword also went by the name of Demonic Sword Art, which was a sword technique. The sword technique was created by the Malevolent King in a state of insanity while he was trapped in the Snow Cavern for almost a century. Thea had no idea how powerful this sword technique would be. She only knew that the Malevolent King left a message, and that was to cultivate the Demonic Sword with the utmost caution. Though Thea knew that cultivating the Demonic Sword was a highly dangerous activity that could cause her to experience Energy Deviation, she could not suppress her desire. Like the impoverished who yearned for wealth and power, the desire came from the deepest parts of her soul. She lingered outside the Mount Thunder Sect for a while before finally spotting an opportunity to sneak into the underground passageway of the Mount Thunder Sect. As she entered the passageway, her heartbeat accelerated as she grew more and more excited.When she left the place last time, she h
