Once James surfaced from the water, Sky appeared before him.At that moment, Sky’s hair was disheveled, and he was covered in injuries with blood dripping from the corners of his lips. He looked at James and asked, “Where‘s Thomas?”James gently shook his head and sighed. “I was too late. Grandpa has already sunk into the bottom of the sea. A shark appeared and swallowed him.”Sky was taken aback for a moment and said, “My condolences.”After offering a word of comfort, Sky left and rejoined the battle.In the sky, the fierce battle continued.Even though the dragon was injured, it was still powerful. Despite having strong martial artists in the battle, it would be hard to kill the dragon, even with the addition of Langston. If Langston had not joined, the battle’s current situation would be much different.They would have been defeated long ago if Langston had not joined them.Wilbur watched the fight play out in the distance.Seeing the fierce battle, the blood in his body
An eighth-ranked grandmaster died just like that.James finally realized the battle’s cruelty.The dragon was still full of energy.More people would die if the battle was prolonged.James did not pay much attention to the battle in the distance. The lives and deaths of these people had nothing to do with him. Instead, he hoped these people would die here so that no one would cause trouble in the future.The world would finally be at peace.He looked at Thea.Thea was injured by the dragon and had severe wounds all over her body as well as some internal injuries.Fortunately, he had mastered using Crucifier and could help treat Thea’s internal injuries.There were only a few physical injuries left.With Thea’s strength, those external injuries would not pose a threat.“Thea, don’t rush back into the battle. Restore your strength first. According to my estimation, the dragon isn’t going to die any time soon. We can’t predict how many more people will be killed by the dragon.
James rushed out quickly and caught the martial artist who had been tossed away.James brought him to a safe area, put him down, and asked, “Senior Cabral, are you alright?”Simon’s hair was disheveled, and there was a bloody wound on his arm with blood dripping from it.His face was pale as he replied, “Damn, that b*stard is hard to kill.”After saying that, he prepared to rejoin the battle with his sword in hand.James quickly tugged him and said, “You should treat your wounds first.”“True.”Simon realized the dragon was about to die soon. He had to quickly treat his wound, recharge his energy, and prepare to snatch the spoils.Bzzt!Bolts of lightning kept sweeping across the sky.The Thunder King stood in the distance and constantly generated lightning to attack the cyan dragon’s body where its scales had fallen. The dragon’s flesh was scorched upon being struck by the lightning.Langston held the Primordial Dragon Blade and appeared a hundred meters above the cyan drag
Thomas was domineering.He immediately demanded that he took the Dragon Essence.“Who do you think you are, Thomas?”The Thunder King was the first to stand up against him. He raised his hand, and lightning flickered in his palm. He glared at Thomas and threatened, “Who are you to take the Dragon Essence? It belongs to me.”As he spoke, several psychics approached and stood behind the Thunder King. They stared at Thomas and the three masked men warily. Once the Thunder King gave the order, they would take action.“Haha,” Thomas chuckled.He did not take the Thunder King seriously at all.If not because he needed the psychics' strength to kill the dragon, he would have wiped out the Thunder King and the other psychics long ago.“What’s wrong? Do you have objections?”Thomas looked at the Thunder King with a smile.“Die!”The Thunder King did not waste any more words. He raised his hand, and a bolt of lightning struck. Thomas stood rooted in place. He casually waved his hand
Thus, the dragon’s blood would not coagulate after being sealed.After getting the dragon’s blood, James turned his attention to the dragon’s scales.The dragon’s scales had powerful defensive quality. He could use it to make clothes and resist attacks from peerless martial artists.The other martial artists also began to collect other dragon spoils.Dragon meat, dragon bones…Soon, the dragon’s spoils were completely divided among the martial artists.Thea was relieved that the martial artists did not get into a fierce battle after slaying the dragon.James looked at Wilbur on the ruined island and wrote on the ground—Do you want to come back to Sol with me?After seeing what James wrote, Wilbur shook his head slightly and wrote on the ground—Forget it. I don’t want to leave. I’m used to living alone. I don’t like crowds and like the quietness here.James wrote again—After we leave, I’m afraid no one else will ever come to this island. Are you sure you don’t want to come with
The Dragon Essence was temporarily useless to him since he had no idea when he would be able to enter the ninth rank.It could take ten years, maybe decades, or he might not even enter the rank after a hundred years.Meanwhile, Maxine was ecstatic.She never expected to hold onto a piece of the Dragon Essence.With her strength, she was incapable of fighting for the Dragon Essence. However, Langston’s actions allowed her to get a share of the pie. Although the piece she grabbed was smaller than James’ and Thea’s, she was still satisfied.The Dragon Essence could significantly improve her cultivation.At the very least, she would enter the eighth rank.“Honey, what’s next after we return to Cansington?”Thea leaned into James, held his hand, and snuggled into his arms, not forgetting to cast a proud look at Maxine.Her expression seemed to be showing off to Maxine that James was hers and that no matter how hard Maxine tried, she could never have James.James said with a smile,
Thea had already informed the Callahans of their return in advance. Thus, as soon as the cruise ship docked, David appeared in a pickup truck. James immediately loaded the things they brought back from the island onto the truck.Then, James approached Thomas at the dock.“Grandpa, when will you bring me to see Dad and the rest of our family? Also, I’ve been wondering who exactly my mother is.”James had never seen his mother before.As far as he could remember, his family had never said anything about his mother.His father also remarried, and he had a stepmother—Rowena.However, his decision brought disaster to his family.Thomas smiled and said, “Stay in Cansington for a few days. I’ll bring your father to come and see you soon.”After Thomas finished speaking, he left. As for James’ mother, he did not mention anything about it.James was looking forward to it.Soon, he would reunite with his family.The Callahans had no idea what James and Thea had headed overseas to do.
All the Callahans had eaten the delicious dragon meat.After consuming it, they felt like a fire was burning within their bodies.However, the fire did not burn them. It simply made them feel as if there was a warm current surging through their bodies. It was very comfortable.It made them feel as if they were ascending to heaven.Soon, dinner was over.James and Thea returned to their room on the third floor.Thea showered and walked out of the bathroom with a thin towel wrapped around her body. Her body was covered in injuries from the dragon’s claw. Fortunately, the wounds had already clotted.She wiped her hair with another towel as she walked over. Seeing James sitting on the bed in a daze, she could not help but ask, “What’s the matter, Honey? What are you thinking about?”James regained his senses.“It’s nothing. I was just wondering why the Prince of Orchid Mountain and the Omniscient Deity would give you qilin blood and phoenix blood. Also, I can’t seem to understand
