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.
“Do you know how much money that will bring in once the research is done?“You have no idea. You won’t be able to imagine the profits from this.”Halvor became more passionate as he spoke. He stood up, pointed at James, and said loudly, “James, I advise you to let me out quickly, or else you’ll be in trouble. Big trouble.”James turned around and left, ignoring him. After he left, a Red Flame Army soldier retrieved the chair and locked the iron door.“James! Get back here!”From behind him, Halvor’s enraged roars could be heard.“You’ll regret this. You’ll definitely regret this! You don’t know who established Orient Commerce. The members are all true bigwigs, and you can't afford to offend them.”When James heard these words, he furrowed his brows slightly. Ancient martial artists were involved in this. The waters were deeper than he had anticipated.Still, he had no fear. No matter who was involved, he would remove them all at once this time.He left the prison and returned
Huff!Mr. Lee took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down.Now was not the time to hold anyone accountable. He sat down and looked at the King across from him.“Teacher is already quite displeased with you. They wanted me to tell you to perform your duties well in the following six months and to take care of the succession. Don't concern yourself with the rest, and don't be meddlesome, or else…”Mr. Lee said these words, then turned around and left.The King’s expression began to turn solemn.James had arrived at the Peace Mansion in a hurry. As soon as he got out of the car, he saw Mr. Lee walking out furiously. Mr. Lee gave James a glance and was slightly taken aback. However, he did not greet him. After being stunned for a moment, he turned around, walked away, and got into a nearby black car.Watching Mr. Lee, who was leaving, James rubbed his chin and muttered, “Mr. Lee disappeared for over two months, but he shows up now and even pays the King a visit. This is definit
The King began to talk about Orient Commerce.“At the time, the country was falling behind in every way. There were still a lot of impoverished people in the country. Many were cold and hungry. Electricity was not yet available in many places.“Lance founded Orient Commerce for two purposes.“First of all, he was concerned that the ancient martial artists led by the Ancient Four would meddle in the affairs of the country. So he founded Orient Commerce, drew these families and ancient martial artists in, and led them to fortune. Furthermore, they made an agreement not to interfere with the country's major affairs.“There was another purpose, and that was to guide the people of the country toward prosperity.“The Great Four, as well as some martial artists, emerged from this and established themselves in the Capital. Over the last few decades, Sol’s economy has experienced tremendous growth. The ancient martial artists, led by the Ancient Four, gained control of Sol's economy as wel
Soon after, he arrived at the Red Flame Army military region.In the office...“According to the investigation, Mr. Caden, over two months ago, when you left the Capital for Mount Thunder Sect, someone went looking for trouble with Delilah and her mother. Delilah, however, is very smart and seemed to be aware of this. She had left with her mother before they were discovered,” said Henry.James asked, “Where are they now?”“According to information gathered from the Red Flame Army's intelligence network, she went to Eyrothia and stayed in a small town in one of the Eyrothia countries. But soon after that, she was captured. Who took her and where she is now is still being investigated,” said Henry.James' expression was grave when he heard that. He pondered for quite a while and asked, “Is there any news about Quincy's stepfather, Xavion?”“Not yet. He disappeared shortly after the company declared bankruptcy and has not been found. Many forces are searching for him right now, but
