James watched the battle from a distance.The intense battle lasted for more than three hours.For the past three hours, both the Omniscient Deity and Wilbur had displayed many unique sword techniques that James had never seen before.James was greatly inspired by what he saw.Although he had seen the First Sword Art in King Quavon’s Mausoleum, the requirements to practice the sword technique were extremely rigorous. He barely achieved the requirements to learn it.After watching the fight between the two, he reached a new understanding of the First Sword Art.Three hours later…Bzzt!!!A flash of Sword Light cut through the sky.The Omniscient Deity sped toward Wilbur with the Primordial Dragon Blade and pressed the sword against Wilbur’s neck.However, the Omniscient Deity did not proceed past that point.He quickly pulled back the Primordial Dragon Blade and tossed it at James.James quickly grabbed onto it.The Omniscient Deity stood on the sea's surface with his hands
In Cansington, at the Callahans’ villa, it had been a day since Thea had returned.She fought with the Thunder King on Mount Ludis, and her arm had gotten injured during the battle.After returning to Cansington, Thomas treated her wound. He wrapped her arm in gauze. Since she had strong True Energy, her body’s recovery abilities were also robust, so the injury on her arm had almost healed.Thomas also stayed in the Callahans’ villa.The Callahans knew Thomas was James’ grandfather. As such, they treated him with great respect.At that moment, Thea and Thomas sat in the villa’s living room after everyone else had left the house.Thomas looked at Thea and asked, “Thea, do you have any plans or thoughts on how to go about slaying the dragon?”Hearing this, Thea frowned.She had no intention of slaying the dragon.Her objective was to find James and to ascertain whether he was dead or alive.However, Thomas was James’ grandfather, which meant he was also her grandfather-in-law.
Xavi from the Lees also followed suit. “I’m definitely coming. I’d like to see what the dragon looks like and whether it's as the legends make it out to be.”Tanner, who used to be a member of Gu Sect’s three major families, stood up and said, “I’ll participate.”Callan said with a smile, “I must go. I believe James is still alive. I have to go check on him.”Sylvan Sect’s Master Maha, Heaven and Earth Sect’s Spirit Master, and some international martial artists began sharing their thoughts.All of them expressed willingness to embark on the journey.Ultimately, Thea fixed her eyes on Donovan from the Blithes and walked toward him.Donovan stood up immediately.He could not behave arrogantly in front of Thea.Not only was she Celestial Sect’s leader, but she was also now the Great Grandmaster of the whole martial community. She currently holds an immense amount of prestige.“Ms. Thea, why’re you staring at me like that? Please stop. You’re making me anxious,” Donovan said afte
Thea had a flashback to when she first reencountered James.James brought her to the House of Royals and treated her wounds. She remembered how he meticulously took care of her.“Wedding? Will that day ever come?”Thea’s face filled with sadness.Sky said James was dead.She knew James was likely dead but kept deceiving herself.Henry consoled her, “Thea, that day will surely come. I believe James isn’t dead yet. He’s surely alive.”Thea wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes and took a deep breath to compose her thoughts. Then, she replied, “Please help me settle the matter on the high-tech weapons as soon as possible. I’ll be heading out next Monday.”“Mhm. I’ll do my best.”After making the request to Henry, Thea left.Meanwhile, Henry quickly left Cansington and headed back to the Capital.One day later…Tyrus reunited with the Prince of Orchid Mountain in the underground palace deep within the Southern Plain’s forest.“Father, many major events have occurred rece
A cruise ship was already docked at Cansington’s port before sunrise on Monday.A group of people approached from a distance. The person in the lead was a woman dressed in black with long black hair. She had an excellent figure and gorgeous looks. In her hand was a long black sword.She radiated an extraordinary aura.It was the Great Grandmaster of the whole martial community, Thea.Following behind her was Thomas.Several other masked men with long swords also followed behind Thomas.The Meranian Psychics were right behind them. Next were Polaris’ Sect’s Archbishop, the Blood Race’s First Blood Emperor, and the Werewolf King.Last in line were some powerful martial artists— including Sky, Callan, Simon, Bennet, Tanner Davis, Xavi Lee, Donovan, Spirit Master, and Master Maha.Almost all the well-known powerful martial artists from Sol were present.Even eighth-ranked grandmasters who had not shown up before joined to slay the dragon.The group boarded the cruise ship und
James waited on the island for a long time, yet Sky had not shown up with any martial artists.Now, he was slightly distraught.He missed Thea, who was far away in Cansington.He sat on a rock by the seat and looked at the crashing waves with a slightly sorrowful expression. After a while, he sighed and stood up.“Sky will surely come soon. Even if he doesn’t, Thomas will be coming. I should use this time to check on the dragon.”James made his way back into the Dragon Abyss.Wilbur was still inside Dragon Abyss.James walked inside and saw a pile of weeds inside the cave.Wilbur was seated in a lotus position among the weeds, and a dazzling light was surrounding his body.When he saw James approach, he stopped cultivating and stood up.James stretched out his hand, and a powerful force beamed from his fingertips, scribbling a sentence on the ground. “Do you know where the dragon is? I’d like to have a look for myself.”Wilbur looked at James and wrote. “Don’t do it. The dra
Her breathy voice was pleasant to the ears, making one feel at ease.She stood beside Thea, and the sea breeze tousled her long hair.Maxine stretched out her slender fingers to tidy up her long chestnut-colored hair that was blown by the wind. She looked into the distance and sighed. “I hope you don’t resent me.”“I don’t resent you.”Thea was expressionless and replied very calmly.Although she did not show any emotion, her tone was very cold and sounded very distant.“Haah.”Maxine sighed.She knew Thea was angry with her.After all, her interference caused so many unexpected situations.“I didn’t expect James' love for you to be so deep. After searching a year for you and learning you were alive without your memories, he traveled this vast ocean to investigate the dragon’s whereabouts. I, too, hope that James is still alive.”“I’m a little tired. I’ll head back inside to rest.”Thea turned around and left.Maxine’s words about hoping James was alive had struck a nerve.
Thea knew these martial artists that came to the island with her had their own motives and were eyeing the dragon’s spoils.She did not want to see a fight break out.She planned to bring everyone back home safely.However, there was nothing she could do if things went beyond her ability to handle them.Thomas looked at Thea. Seeing her pitiful appearance, he felt sympathy for her.He sighed. “Thea, you’re still too naive. Putting everyone else aside, Sky and the Thunder King aren’t going to defer to you. They’re obeying your commands right now just to slay the dragon.“Once the dragon is dead, they will take action.”Hearing this, Thea went silent.Right now, she could not care less about the ancient martial world’s affairs.She only cared to ensure the soldiers on the cruise ship got to return home alive and in one piece.As for these ancient martial artists who decided to quarrel for the dragon blood, it had nothing to do with her.She did not say anything more.The boat
