“You’ve wasted so much of my time, f*cker. I’m not going to let you leave without paying me three hundred dollars first.”The driver was getting impatient.At that moment, he started getting sick of arguing with James and was tempted to simply let him go.However, the thought of having wasted so much time dealing with James and not getting any money out of it vexed him.So, he decided to teach James a lesson.He pulled out his phone and made a call.After a few minutes, a dozen taxis came and surrounded the car. Dozens of people got out of their vehicles.“Hey, man. I’m giving you one last chance. Give me the f*ckin’ money right now, or else…”James did not take the driver’s threats seriously.He looked at the time. Henry should be arriving soon.Sure enough, military vehicles appeared from the distance at that moment and were driving closer to them.When the military vehicles got close to the airport entrance, a man wearing a Red Flame robe with three stars on his shoulder

James soon arrived at the gate of the Cadens’ mansion.The guards at the gate saw the military vehicles and immediately approached them.As they were walking over, James had already gotten out of the car.“J-James…”The guard addressed him nervously.James’ appearance caused both guards to lose their composure.James asked bluntly, “Is Maxine home?”“Y-yes, she's home…”Before the guard could finish speaking, James had already barged into the Cadens’ mansion.Right then, Maxine was speaking with Zaiden, the head of the Sullivans, in the living room.“Mr. Sullivan, I’ve spoken about this at length. You should reconsider.”As Maxine said that, James walked into the living room.Seeing James, Maxine immediately stood up and gasped, “J-James.”James glanced at Zaiden, who was sitting on the couch and spoke in a steely tone. “This doesn’t concern you. You can leave for now.”Zaiden looked quietly at James. Then, he simply stood up and left.“J-James. You’re back?”James look

He had suspected that it was either Thea or Thomas all along.However, he had no conclusive evidence.It never occurred to him that Celestial Sect’s leader would really be his wife, Thea, the woman who had endured so much suffering in the past.“By the way, you said that Thea sent a letter of challenge to Tobias?”“Yeah.”“News of it has already spread in the ancient martial world. What’s going on? Weren’t you with Thea?” said Maxine.“There were some unexpected circumstances.”James briefly explained what had happened while he was recovering.“Grandpa felt that the Spirit Turtle’s blood in Thea’s body showed great promise. He wanted to force Thea to experience an Energy Deviation so that she’d fully utilize the Spirit Turtle’s blood. Has anything major happened in the ancient martial world since then? Do you know if there has been any internal discord within Celestial Sect?”Before Maxine could explain, Bennett interrupted their conversation and said, “Nothing has happened. T

For half a month, Thea’s True Energy had been increasing as the days passed.She had already ascended the Skyward Stairway’s Fourth Stair.She managed to almost completely assimilate the power from the Spirit Turtle’s blood.However, she had not reached her full potential yet.There was still some remaining energy within the Spirit Turtle’s blood.Thea was in a closed-door meditation.During this period, a piece of information had become the new hot topic in the ancient martial world.“The latest news is that Celestial Sect’s leader is actually Thea.”“What?! Thea?”“Who’s Thea?”“She’s James’ wife. She used to be known as the ugliest woman in Cansington. The woman that saved James from the fire that claimed his family.”“No way. How could it be that same Thea? What kind of joke is this?”It was unknown who had spread the news.However, every martial artist within Sol now knew that Thea was the Celestial Sect’s leader.Meanwhile, James had arrived in the Southern Plains M

Swoosh!All of a sudden, a figure flew up the cliff.The person landed firmly on the ground.“Master,”Tapio immediately stood up and addressed him respectfully.The person that flew up the cliff was a youthful-looking man, probably around his 30s.He had long hair and was dressed in a white robe. The man had a calm demeanor as he crossed his hands behind his back.“What’s the situation?” he inquired.“Master, Celestial Sect’s leader, has challenged Tobias to a duel at Mt. Thunder Pass. In the past few days, news had spread that Celestial Sect’s leader is actually James’ wife, Thea.”“Celestial Sect’s leader is Thea?”Upon hearing this news, the man in his 30s was surprised.During this period, he also tried to investigate the identity of the Celestial Sect’s leader but to no avail.After composing himself, he asked, “Who spread the news?”Tapio replied, “I’m not sure. By the way, according to reliable sources, James appeared in the Capital. After he visited the Cadens’ ma

James had never seen this person before nor heard of his name.However, it seemed this person named Tyrus had known him for a long time.James looked at the man before him with flinty eyes This man was extremely strong and was on par with him in terms of cultivation base.He had ascended the Fifth Stair's peak and was on the verge of entering the Sixth Stair. He had assumed he was the strongest in the world, but all of a sudden, this man shows up and demonstrated strength that was at least equal to his.The world was indeed full of hidden masters.It proved that as one climbed higher, one would also come into contact with similarly remarkable people.“Who exactly are you, Tyrus?” James questioned him with narrowed eyes.However, Tyrus did not answer his question. He simply stared at James, shocked that James’ strength had exceeded his expectations.He practically watched James grow up.Ever since James was drafted into the Southern Plains ten years ago, he had secretly watch

James had no words to dispute his statement.It was not that his martial art comprehension was poor, but that his opponent was too powerful.What kind of martial arts was he practicing?He had never seen or heard of this technique before.“What…What kind of martial art technique is that?” James stared at Tyrus incredulously.“It’s not an advanced martial art technique. I simply flicked my finger. You’ll only be able to use this to your advantage when you truly comprehend the way of martial arts. Your True Energy is the core of your strength, and maximizing the power of your True Energy is the real essence of martial arts,” explained Tyrus.It sounded like he was boasting about his own skills but it also seemed to be a lesson meant for James.He spoke literally and his words were simple enough to understand.However, it was difficult to grasp from a martial artist’s perspective.“We’ll meet again.”Tyrus left the conversation there and began to move away.“Take this!!!”Jame

When he was alive a millennia ago, it only took him a mere ten years to ascend the ranks and be able to take on the Prince of Orchid Mountain’s men. Through this, he was able to gain power that was second only to the Prince of Orchid Mountain.Even though his cultivation base had been abolished, he was still regarded as a legend for being able to create the Nine Scriptures of Ordeals.The martial arts he left behind were all first-rate techniques from a thousand years ago.James planned to study hard and practice them.However, he did not have the leisure of doing so currently.It would take several years, perhaps decades, or even longer to fully understand and master each one.This would not be the case for geniuses though.However, James did not think himself to be a genius.While immersed in his thoughts, he made his way up Mt. Thunder Pass.James sat in a lotus position and waited.He was going to wait until Thea appeared.Meanwhile, a man was also seated in a lotus posi
