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

Henry had always been following James.They had been comrades and brothers for ten years. He knew a lot about James, but he had no idea that James had quietly become a martial artist.While he was at Mount Thunder Sect before the end of the year, he was injured by Thea and taken to Medical Valley to heal. His new year was spent at Medical Valley.During this time, he finally learned about ancient martial artists and how powerful they were.“Mr. Caden…”After finishing a glass, he looked at James anxiously.“You’re holding something back. This isn’t like you.” James asked, “What’s the matter? Tell me. Don’t hesitate like a wuss.”Only then did Henry ask, “What’s the rank of your strength right now, Mr. Caden?”While he was at the Medical Valley, he talked with the Medical Valley disciples who were looking after him about a variety of topics related to the world of ancient martial arts. He also discovered how the strength of martial artists was classified.In order, it was from

“I really didn’t know,” said Thea while also smiling, “Quincy and I were best friends at the time, but I had no idea she had a boyfriend.”“Ahem!”James let out a few dry coughs. He did not expect them to talk about him, much less being so upbeat and lighthearted while doing so. This was not quite like the Thea he was used to.He quickly changed the subject. “Alright, let's stop gossiping. I just received some news today.”James began to speak, repeating everything Halvor had said. Then, he recounted the King’s words in detail.“This is the current situation of the Capital. The root of everything is Orient Commerce, and the circumstances surrounding Orient Commerce are extremely complicated. This involved a large number of people and consortia. Even the Ancient Four led by the Cadens and some ancient martial artists, as well as the President, Lance.”“It’s so complicated?” Thea was also taken aback when she heard this.Quincy furrowed her brows and said, “This is far too complic

They had gathered and were talking about Orient Commerce.Maxine was talking about the current members of Orient Commerce that she was aware of.The current Orient Commerce relied heavily on the Great Four of the ancient martial arts world. However, the Great Four had been doing their own thing for years and were rarely in contact with one another.Now, Orient Commerce was just for show. Despite that, it was not dissolved, given that there were always profits to be made.“Still, I think it's necessary to establish a chamber of commerce first.” After speaking for a while, Maxine looked at James once again and continued, “Once the chamber of commerce is established, we’ll recruit some foreign companies to compete with Orient Commerce.”“It’s too late for that,” said Quincy. “The election is only six months away. In the remaining time, the chamber of commerce won't be able to grow, and James intended to resolve everything before the election.”“Recruiting the Great Four would be the
