James stopped the Omniscient Deity from leaving.However, the Omniscient Deity did not stop. He turned around and left the Black Dragon Palace.James touched his chin and murmured, “What kind of sword is it?”He had heard of Divine Sword Villa.Some time ago, Callan had brought back Excalibur and headed to Divine Sword Villa, requesting them to help reforge the sword.However, Divine Sword Villa refused to help.Therefore, Callan fought with the owner of Divine Sword Villa.After defeating him, Divine Sword Villa finally agreed to reforge Excalibur.Another legendary weapon was about to be born from Divine Sword Villa.Moreover, it was a sword forged for more than a thousand years.What kind of legendary weapon was worth being forged for more than a thousand years?James was intrigued by the sword.On top of that, Lucjan had headed to Divine Sword Villa. Therefore, he would also need to visit them to retrieve Crucifier.After thinking for a while, James sat down.He looke
Henry exclaimed.“The Celestial Sect’s leader. That’s one of the strongest figures to exist in the ancient martial world. I never expected Thea, who still needed to be protected just some time ago, to become so strong in just half a year. I feel so ashamed that I’ve only just cultivated my True Energy. I’m only a first-ranked grandmaster. Thea could kill me instantly with just one move.”Henry felt ashamed.He was no match for her at all.“Huff.”James sighed.“What’s the matter, James?”“Nothing.”James closed his eyes, putting everything behind his mind.In the backyard of the Cadens’ mansion.Maxine was lying on a bed in a room.Inside the room, Bennett took out a jug of wine and poured a glass for James.James asked, “How’s Maxine?”Bennett sighed. “Her condition isn’t looking too good. Every day, I have to use my True Energy to prolong her life.”“Let me take a look.”James got up and went to the bedside.Maxine was wearing white pajamas, lying on the bed. Her eyes
Callan invited James and Thea into the room to sit down.“James, Thea, what would you like to drink?” asked Quincy.“Anything is fine,” Thea replied softly.Quincy asked again, “What about you, James?”“Anything for me too.”James was not here for a casual visit but to ask Callan about some things.Callan sat down and went straight to the point. “James, I know you won’t visit for nothing. There must be something up if you’re here to see me. You can cut to the chase.”James nodded and said, “Mhm. There is indeed something I need from you. I’d like to inquire about Divine Sword Villa.”“Oh?”Callan’s curiosity was piqued. He looked at James with curiosity and asked, “Why are you suddenly asking about Divine Sword Villa?”James did not hide anything and told him about the information he had gotten from the Omniscient Deity.“Is that so?”After hearing this, Callan fell into thought.“A legendary sword is about to be born from Divine Sword Villa? Why have I not heard of this?”
After thinking for a while, he said solemnly, “The situation is very complicated. She has a problem with her blood. Not only has she absorbed the Spirit Turtle’s blood, but her blood has also mutated. This would’ve been difficult enough to treat even if her blood had not mutated. I’m afraid that even modern medicine can’t get the job done.”James asked, “Is there no other way?”“She can only go through an exchange transfusion.”Callan thought for a while and said, “She’ll have to replace her current blood with new blood. Her organs have already adapted to the Spirit Turtle’s blood, and they’re depending on it. Ordinary blood won’t be good enough for her.“Only blood stronger than the Spirit Turtle’s will work. Even so, there’s no guarantee that this’ll succeed. After she goes through an exchange transfusion, she might face complications like her blood being unable to regenerate or it being incompatible with her body’s organs, which will lead to death.”Callan explained his underst
To be honest, James was not confident in his abilities to cure Thea either.There were no records in the medical book about conditions similar to Thea’s.His only hope was for Crucifier to perform a miracle.The two returned home together.At home, James accompanied Thea for the rest of the day.He initially planned to leave for Divine Sword Villa the next morning.He remembered the information he had obtained from the Omniscient Deity. He would have to look for the King if he wanted to know about Xavion’s whereabouts.James pondered for a while and decided that he should settle this matter before heading to Divine Sword Villa.Early in the morning, he bid farewell to Thea and left the house. He headed to Peace Mansion and met with the King.The King had had his power stripped from him. Apart from his nominal title, he had no absolute authority, nor was he needed in any meetings. All matters, regardless of their importance, were handled by the candidates running for the title
The King said, “We don’t have much time.”“I’ll solve everything as soon as possible. I’ll try to get it done one month before the general election.”“Then, you still have a month and a half left.”“Mhm. I’ll have to leave the Capital for a while. When I return, hand Xavion over to me. I’ll handle things.”The King shrugged and said, “If you’re confident that you can solve everything, then I won’t stop you. After all, I’m about to retire. I’m gonna enjoy the rest of my life without worrying about these tedious matters.”The King looked indifferent.“I still have some stuff to settle, so I’ll take my leave.”James did not say anything more and stood up to leave.After James left, the King’s expression gradually became solemn. Gloom, who was standing by the side, asked, “Do you really trust James? Do you think James can win the fight against Orient Commerce and the Gu Sect?”“Certainly.”The King nodded and said, “In the battle of Malgudi, the Gu Sect suffered a heavy blow. See
Divine Sword Villa was a low-profile but powerful sect.The sect hardly paid any attention to worldly affairs. Even a hundred years ago, when Sol was in dire straits, no one from Divine Sword Villa Sect exposed themselves, nor did they support Sol in the war.Callan learned about Divine Sword Villa by chance.This would be his second time visiting them.James looked at the steep mountain devoid of human traces.He nodded and said, “Mhm. Let’s go check out Divine Sword Villa.”“We should head this way.”Callan pointed in the right direction.Then, he strode ahead and quickly led the way.James followed closely behind him.The two quickly moved through the dense mountain forest.The mountain roads were steep.However, this did not affect the two of them.About an hour later, a few historical-looking buildings appeared on a mountain ahead of them.A white mist surrounded the top of the mountain. From a distance, these buildings looked like heaven on earth.“It’s right ahead
“Ha!”Hearing this, the young man in the white robe snickered.He looked at Callan with a sneer, then his face darkened, and he said coldly, “Who do you think you are? How dare you speak to me in such a manner? It doesn’t matter who you are in the outside world. When you’re in Divine Sword Villa, you go by our rules. We’re not accepting any guests right now. Leave, or else…”“Or else what?”Callan glanced at the man in the white robe.“Die.”The man in the white robe suddenly pulled out the long sword hung around his waist.Bzzt!He swung his long sword, and an invisible Sword Energy swept forward.Callan raised his hand and stretched out two fingers, easily stopping the long sword.His robe fluttered because of the invincible Sword Energy.“What?”The young man’s expression changed immediately.He wanted to draw back his long sword but could not, no matter how hard he tried. Callan exerted a little force on the sword.Clank!The long sword broke in half.The broken b
