James opened the door and leaped into the passenger’s seat. Thea slammed on the gas and had no intention to stop. Unconcerned about James’ safety, she rebuked him upon seeing him in the passenger’s seat, “What are you doing here? Why don’t you go find Maxine?” “Thea, this is really just a misunderstanding,” James explained. “I don’t know what happened to her today. I visited her to discuss our future plans. All of a sudden, her personality changed, and she began saying weird things. In the end, she even embraced me tightly…” James narrated the chain of events that took place. Although Thea was mad, she listened to him intently. When she heard that Maxine confessed her feelings to James, Thea scowled. “I was confused. Weird images began surfacing in my mind, but I hurriedly catalyzed Ataraxia to suppress those thoughts. That’s why I couldn’t push her away in time. “Thea, I’m telling you the truth. I only see her as a little sister.” “Hmph!” Thea long knew that Maxine had

”You are the commander-in-chief of the Red Flame Army and a good friend of the Blithe King. The father of Whitney Walker─Henry’s girlfriend─is the Centurion of the Northern Border. Your connections are terrifying. “You now control the vast majority of forces of Sol. Who would dare go against your wish if you want to become the King? “As for the ancient martial world, you have the support of Maxine, the family head of the Cadens. Not only that, you’re close friends with Jackson Cabral, the Sect Leader of the Mount Thunder Sect. You even have Callan in the Capital to assist you. “Even the heavens wish for you to be the King,” Thea said. James scratched his nose, saying, “Seems like it, yeah. But I’m really not interested in becoming King. The greater the authority, the greater the responsibility. I don’t think I can manage a country well.” Leaning on the chair, he pulled out a cigarette and lit it. “I like a peaceful and uneventful life. I cherish the time when I was married

Since everything was fine with Thea, James was assured. However, he still reminded Thea, “In any case, you should be more careful. I still think you should throw the sword away.” “Everything’s fine, Darling.” Thea stood up and held the Malevolent Sword in her hand, saying, “This sword is sharp and indestructible. It can even cut through metal with ease.” James glanced at Thea. Although she was still the usual Thea from the outside, her words sounded strange to James. ‘I thought women like beautiful clothes or cosmetic products. Why is she so interested in an ice-cold sword?’ However, he dismissed those thoughts. “Thea, I plan to ask Quincy to come to the Capital and form a Chamber of Commerce. Then, we’ll pull in businesses to deal with the chaotic situation that could occur.” James discussed this with Thea. If Thea rebuffed his idea, he would have to think of something else. “Sure.” Putting down the Malevolent Sword, Thea took a seat and said, “Quincy’s a competent per

These insane thoughts surfaced in her mind despite her already comprehending the Ataraxia. She found it hard to imagine what would happen to grandmasters who absorbed the Spirit Turtle core without learning the Ataraxia. She took a deep breath and picked up the Malevolent Sword. Then, she stood up and left, driving toward the Cadens’ residence. After James left, Maxine was sitting in the living room, lost in thought. Soon, an hour passed in the blink of an eye. She only recollected herself when she heard footsteps approaching. Lifting her head, she met Thea’s gaze. Upon seeing Thea’s arrival, Maxine was not surprised at all. Composed and expressionless, she pointed at the sofa and said, “Please have a seat.” Thea sat down and put the Malevolent Sword on the table. Glancing at the Malevolent Sword, Maxine grinned slightly. “Did you know I would come?” Thea looked at her. “Hehe~” Maxine smiled slightly, “Thea, you’ve been here in the Capital for two months. In the meantim

Maxine was not at all surprised by Thea’s arrival. Based on her calculations, Thea would surely be here to confront her because she already knew about Thea’s identity as the Sect Leader of the Celestial Sect. With Thea’s current prestige and strength, how would she sit idly by as she watched her beloved be embraced by another woman? Now, however, she found it hard to fathom Thea’s thought process. “It’s nothing.” Thea spoke gently, “I came here to tell you to help James to the best of your ability. Since I have the power to make you the family head of the Cadens, I can also remove you from your position.” Then, she stood up and left. When she reached the front door, she stopped and turned to look at Maxine. “By the way, stop seducing my husband. Otherwise, don’t blame me for what happens next.” After she said that, she turned to leave. As Maxine watched Thea’s retreating figure, her expression turned grim. Although she speculated that Thea was the Sect Leader of the Cel

The corporation went into bankruptcy because it made a research breakthrough on a technology. The Tuckson family took notice of it and drove it into bankruptcy. The corporation's owner, Xavion Zachary, on the other hand, vanished.Judging by how the Tucksons continued to bother Delilah, Xavion was still alive. He was simply in hiding with the technology that the corporation had developed.“Yes, I'll go right now.” Henry nodded and hurriedly left the office.After he left, Henry used the Red Flame Army's authority to begin investigating Blue Tech Corporation.James did not leave either and waited at the military region headquarters. It was a two-hour wait.After two hours, Henry came back with a document. He handed it to James and said, “Mr. Caden, this is all of Blue Tech Corporation's information, including specific information about Blue Tech Corporation’s owner.”“Okay.” James took it and said, “Henry, look into another person.”“Who?” asked Henry.“Travis’ daughter, Delilah

Halvor pushed against the iron gate and growled in anger. Even though he was incredibly old, his voice was clear and powerful.In an effort to get out, he tried shaking the iron gate as hard as he could, but it remained immovable.James grinned slightly as he looked at the furious Halvor in the cell. “Halvor, are you still unaware of the current situation at this point? Do you really believe the people outside will get you out?”As he said that, he gestured at the soldier behind him and said, “Unlock the door.”The soldier behind him approached and unlocked the iron door. As soon as the door opened, Halvor dashed over, and the soldier behind James raised his weapon in an instant.Halvor came to a halt immediately and looked at James with a face filled with resentment.“Stand back,” the soldier barked coldly.Halvor backed off, and James entered the cell.A Red Flame Army soldier carried over a chair. James sat down, took out a cigarette, and lit it. Smoke filled the air in the

James’ words gave Halvor quite a shock. He did not expect James to be so bold.“Can you handle the aftermath, James? Do you understand the consequences of striking these people? These are Sol officials who have demonstrated exceptional merit and service. Even though they are guilty, they made significant contributions to the construction of Sol. Sol will be in chaos if they are captured.”“You don’t need to worry about that. I have the courage to do this. Naturally, I have strategies for handling the fallout,” said James nonchalantly.Upon hearing that, Halvor took a few steps back slightly. It took a few seconds before he calmed down.“You wouldn't dare, James, you certainly wouldn’t. You don’t know how complicated the situation is. You’re an ancient martial artist, so you would know about Orient Commerce. If you persist on this, Orient Commerce won’t let you get away.”“Orient Commerce?" James furrowed his brows.‘What the hell is this Orient Commerce?’“I honestly don’t know.
