Thomas had told him to wait a few days in Cansington for his father to show up.

I won’t send you off.”…After James bid farewell to Cynthia, he contacted Maxine.Maxine was still in Cansington and had not returned to the Capital.As a wise woman, she knew James and Thea would get remarried after Thea recovered her memories.Thea had always wanted to live in seclusion.Now that Sol was in peace, there was a high chance James would remarry Thea and live in seclusion with her.She had been waiting for James to say goodbye.Thus, she was very calm upon receiving James’ call.“Alright. I’ll head out right now.”Maxine hung up the phone and headed to where she had agreed to meet with James.Their meeting place was in the city square. James sat on a chair in the square and smoked a cigarette.Click! Clack! Click! Clack!High heels could be

One by one, James bid farewell to everyone.Then, he went to see Callan and said his goodbyes.After that, he met up with the Blithe King and had a few drinks.In one day, he had settled everything.Now, he had nothing else to do.He had never felt so relaxed before. Feeling at ease made him much happier.Henry carried a suitcase down the stairs of the House of Royals. He smiled and greeted James, who was sitting in the living room smoking a cigarette. “James, are you not leaving yet? Whitney and I are leaving on a trip. By the way, where are you two planning to go? We’re going to Dream City first.”James looked at Henry and Whitney who were approaching. Then, he said with a smile, “I’ll stay in Cansington for a few more days. You two go ahead. As for our destination, I don’t know yet. We might not even have a destination and will just go with the flow.”“Alright. Goodbye.”Henry carried the suitcase out and left with Whitney in hand.After the two left, Thea held James' hand

Meanwhile, Thea sat beside James and remained silent. After some time, James looked at Thomas and Nicholas and said, “Grandpa, Dad, I’m not interested in participating in your plans. However, I promise I won’t get in your way. Do whatever you wish. Thea and I will be living in seclusion from now on.” Upon hearing this, Thomas was dismayed. “James, I really wish you can lend me a hand. You’re the only one closest to crossing into the ninth rank. Not only that, but the Cadens are besieged by enemies on all sides—the Prince of Orchid Mountain, the Omniscient Deity, and the Blood Race. We’ll all benefit greatly from slaying the dragon. Soon, many powerful martial artists will emerge. Without your help, it’ll be impossible for us to achieve our goal.” Thomas continued, “James, I really hope you can lend me and the Cadens a helping hand. With you and Thea by our side, it’ll only be a matter of time before the Cadens dominate the world.” Still, James was unimpressed. He looked at
Chapter 1792
Three years later, on a mountain in Sol… A man carrying a pack basket was traversing the landscape. Holding a sickle in his hand, he wore a simple sackcloth and a pair of straw sandals. His pack basket was full of herbs he uprooted from the ground. “Huh, what’s this herb?” Suddenly, he saw a glimmering green light on a cliff in the distance. Although the light only glimmered for a split second, the man with impeccable eyesight could see the herb even from a hundred meters away. As he murmured, he leaped into the air and flew toward the cliff. Standing in mid-air, he simply stared at the herb.The herb, which looked like an orchid from the outside, had bloomed a beautiful red. At that moment, he could even smell the fragrance of the herb.The man was James, who had been living a life of seclusion for three years. Over the past three years, he had been collecting herbs in the mountains whenever he was free. In fact, he had planted all sorts of herbs around the village. All thes

“By the way, Thea…” Upon thinking about the herb he picked in the mountains, James immediately took it out of the pack basket and handed it over to Thea, saying, “Look what I found.” Thea took it. The moment she made contact with the herb, she was stunned. “What powerful Empyrean Spiritual Energy!” “Indeed.” James said, “I’ve been collecting herbs for three years. This is the first time I’ve encountered a herb that possesses such majestic Empyrean Spiritual Energy. However, there are no records of this herb in the Medical Book. What about the Book of Malice?” Thea scrutinized the herb for a moment before shaking her head slightly, saying, “No, I don’t know what this herb is either.” “In any case, we should plant it.” “Mhm.” Thea returned the herb to James. James immediately headed to the backyard, dug a hole, and planted the herb. Then, he watered the plant. After planting the herb, he returned to the courtyard. Thea was sitting on a swing caressing her tummy. Upo

After having a simple meal, Thea returned to her room and continued her prenatal education. Meanwhile, James and Callan continued drinking. After watching Thea leave, James leaned over to Callan and asked, “What happened in the ancient martial world?" As James had not kept up with the ancient martial world’s affairs, he had no idea how much had changed. Over the past three years, he simply researched the Medical Book, martial arts, the Lunar and Terra Art, and the natural principles of the world. In essence, he had been living a life of leisure. However, it was boring and uneventful. Reinvigorated, Callan turned to have a look at the house before whispering, “I haven’t been paying close attention to the events in the ancient martial world too. A few days ago, I heard some rumors on the street while I was out for a walk.” Hearing this, James’ curiosity was piqued. He hurriedly asked, “Oh, just tell me about it already!” “Calm down… This is a long story…” Callan smoked his

However, he did not expect his grandfather to be a part of this. “Apart from that, many powerful martial artists and sects have emerged in Sol. You know Maxine Caden, don’t you?” James looked at Callan and asked, “What happened to Maxine?” “Huh…” Callan said, “She’s an impressive woman, I must say. Though she also obtained the Dragon Essence and the dragon’s blood, she’s kept a low profile over the past three years. She’s been in closed-door meditation all this while and seldom left her residence. Just three months ago, she suddenly appeared and announced her separation from the Cadens. She’s now known as just Maxine to the outside world. Not only that, she even established Floret Palace. She’s now known as Master of Floret Palace to the ancient martial world.” Upon hearing this, James was lost in contemplation. The fact that Maxine left the Cadens and established Floret Palace deeply stunned him. “What else is there?” James looked at Callan. Callan continued, “Japura h
Chapter 1796
Hearing this, James could not help but be stunned. He never expected there to be such drastic changes in the ancient martial world in just three short years. It seemed everyone had benefitted greatly from slaying the dragon three years ago. Things were even more chaotic now than they had been back then. “By the way, what about the Blood Race? What have they been up to over the past three years?” James asked. Callan said, “They’ve been keeping a low profile all this while. Apart from the First Blood Emperor who would occasionally show himself once in a while, the rest almost never appeared in public. They might be intimidated by the Solean ancient martial artists.” “I see…” James said. Then, holding the wine glass in his hand, he said, “What’s the point of knowing all this? I’m now living a happy and carefree life. I’m not getting myself involved in this.” “But, can you stay out of it?” Callan said, “Many powerful martial artists have emerged. You’ve cultivated the Lunar
