In actuality, Callan had just learned about the birth of a legendary sword after hearing about it from James.As soon as he entered Divine Sword Villa, he sensed something was wrong, so he deliberately threw out a bait to test the waters.He specifically said they met half a year ago.The truth was that he had met the owner of Divine Sword Villa just recently, and it was not half a year ago.Now, he was sure the person in front of him was an imposter.Although they looked the same, he was not the actual owner of Divine Sword Villa.Therefore, he specifically talked about the birth of the legendary sword to fish out more information.James knew what Callan was trying to do as soon as he heard the conversation.He was aware Callan had met with Divine Sword Villa’s owner recently and not half a year ago.“Oh, you meant that.”The old man in the cyan robe replied, “Mr. Maverick, don’t blame me for pretending not to remember. After all, the sword is very precious to us, and I don’
“That’s a given. Your name was James, right?”“Yeah, that’s right. I’m James.”“James, it’s not that I want to brag, but Divine Sword Villa has a collection of the world’s legendary swords. The Dragonslayer that is to be unleashed is very special. Our sect has spent more than a thousand years on it. More than ten generations worked on forging the sword. Once it’s revealed to the world, it’ll definitely cause an uproar.”Childe began bragging about his sect to James.He was enthusiastic as he spoke of the Dragonslayer.James listened attentively to him.However, he simply praised the Dragonslayer and gave no more information.“Mr. Giovanni, could you bring me on a tour around the villa? I’d like to have a look around.”Childe’s expression immediately darkened, and he said coldly, “James, I’m warning you not to walk around the villa casually. Things are tense right now. The Dragonslayer is about to be released to the world, and we’re on high vigilance. If you walk around without
James and Callan left Divine Sword Villa together and entered the dense forest.Outside Divine Sword Villa, James sat on a rock in an open space in the virgin forest. He took out a cigarette, threw one to Callan, and asked, “What’s the situation on your side?”After Callan took the cigarette, his expression gradually became solemn. He said, “I was brought to the place where the sword was forged and got to see the legendary sword. However, my goal wasn’t to see the sword. It was to bait something out.”James asked, “What is it?”Callan said, “I found out the owner was real. However, he was being controlled. Lucjan was controlling his words and actions with Gu venom.”“But, I met with Childe of Divine Sword Villa and had a brief conversation with him. Judging from his words, he didn’t seem fake since he kept bragging about Divine Sword Villa’s legendary sword. How could that be?”James was slightly confused.He looked at Callan and asked, “Could it be he’s real? Was he trying to s
The First Blood Emperor did not refute him. The Grand Patriarch of the Blood Race had indeed crossed into the ninth rank. However, ever since he reached such a realm, he never once intervened in worldly affairs. There were several times in history when the Blood Race was almost eradicated. However, not once did the Blood Race’s Grand Patriarch intervene. It was impossible to convince him to slay the dragon alongside them. “There’s no need to rush things.” Ezekiel waved his hand slightly and said, “He chose not to intervene as he was unsure of his chances of winning. Once we obtain Dragonslayer, there’s no way he’ll continue to turn a blind eye to our cause. “This is a dragon we’re talking about! There are treasures all over his body. We just need a little bit for ourselves. By then, the Blood Race would benefit the most from it. I’m confident that he would join us in creating a new world order.” The more Ezekiel said, the more excited Lucjan got. Even the First Blood Emperor
James and Callan infiltrated Divine Sword Villa in search of the prisoners. Based on Callan’s observation, a fierce battle had just occurred on the premise. Everyone else apart from a handful of survivors had been killed. Meanwhile, the survivors should be imprisoned inside Divine Sword Villa and under the control of Gu venom. Neither of them knew the exact location. After going separate ways, James and Callan swiftly went on the move. In the blink of an eye, James appeared on the roof of a building, contemplating his next course of action. He believed that it would be highly impossible to search for the prisoners in Divine Sword Villa, which was heavily guarded. After some contemplation, he decided to search for Childe Giovanni to learn more about the current situation. During the day, Nehemiah had bragged to him about the immense power of Dragonslayer. James believed that it was most unwise of Nehemiah to boast about the emergence of Dragonslayer at such a critical moment. Nehemi
Upon hearing this, Nehemiah’s expression darkened. After a while, he nodded slightly, “Yes.” James asked, “What happened?” Nehemiah had boasted about Dragonslayer during the day to attract James’ attention. James’ return was within his calculations. He knew that James and Callan were not here to have a glimpse of Dragonslayer but for something else. Unable to leave Divine Sword Villa, he had no way of seeking help from the outside world. So, he answered James’ question honestly. “About a week ago, unknown men stormed Divine Sword Villa and killed almost every disciple inside. The Sect Elders, on the other hand, were imprisoned. These men’s objective was the forthcoming Dragonslayer. I don’t know who they are. I only know that they are strong. Even the owner of Divine Sword Villa was instantly subdued.” As he said that, he looked at James. “Your reputation precedes you, James. I hope you can save Divine Sword Villa.” Nehemiah’s words corroborated Callan’s speculation. Ja
After formulating a plan, James and Callan decided to conduct a night operation. They would go their separate ways. James would draw the attention of the guards and Lucjan away, while Callan would sneak in and save the prisoners. In the dead silence of the night, almost all the lights in Divine Sword Villa were extinguished. On the road to the mountain… Fwoosh! A figure descended from the sky and landed steadily on the ground. It was James. James’ appearance immediately attracted the attention of the disciples of the Gu Sect. “Who’s there?” Immediately, many brandished their swords and charged toward James. As they were all at least fourth-rank grandmasters, their movements were agile. In the blink of an eye, they appeared before James. James waved his hand, and powerful energy gathered in his palm. Then, the energy struck the disciples of the Gu Sect, who were immediately sent flying. They collapsed to the ground and writhed in pain. “Intruder alert!” Someone y
Even if he did hand the things over to James, there was no guarantee that he would be spared. Thomas who was disguised as Ezekiel looked at Lucjan and said, “You don’t have a choice. Haven’t you witnessed James’ strength? Not even Tobias who absorbed the power of so many martial artists stood a chance against him. Do you seriously think the three of us combined can defeat him?” The First Blood Emperor’s expression turned grim. He knew about James’ strength. He just could not figure out how he managed to restore his strength in such a short amount of time. “How did he manage to regain his strength…?” Rumble! A fierce battle raged on outside the cavern. “I’ll fight to the bitter end.” Holding the Blade of Justice in his hand, Lucjan charged out. Upon seeing this, the First Blood Emperor tried following along. However, Ezekiel stopped him in time and said, “Do you have a death wish?” “What should we do, then?” The First Blood Emperor asked. After brief contemplation,
