Madelyn had found Thea and called out to her.The moment Thea turned around, Madelyn swiftly struck out with her palm.Taken by surprise by the sudden attack, Thea quickly channeled her True Energy into her palms to defend herself.Their palms collided.An intense force swept toward Madelyn, pushing her several meters away. Her pretty face turned pale, and her arms felt rubbery.She hid her hands behind her back and stared at Thea. After a few seconds, she chucked and walked over with a smile. “Wow, Thea. You’ve certainly surpassed my expectations.”Thea’s face tensed up as she on as Madelyn approached her. She squinted her eyes. “Who are you?”Madelyn said with a beguiling smile, “I’m from the Cadens. My name is Madelyn Caden. I heard Maxine speak of you before. She said you were a beauty who managed to become a grandmaster in a very short amount of time. I didn’t believe her and came to have a look for myself. Seeing you in person, you’re way better than she had described.”H

Hearing that Quincy would return soon, James let out a sigh of relief. Then, he replied with a smile. “Thank you, Thea.”“Honey, you have to promise me that you won’t look at any other women besides me,” Thea said bitterly.She felt threatened by Quincy.Quincy was not only pretty but also had a good eye for business. Most importantly, she was skilled at utilizing her charm. Thea was scared that she’d tempt James and lose him to Quincy if she was not careful.James cooed reassuringly, “Nonsense. I only need Quincy back to manage Messiah. It’s impossible between the two of us. If I was set on being with her, I would’ve agreed to do so a long time ago. There truly isn’t anything between the both of us.”Although Thea found it hard to believe that James and Quincy were completely innocent, she still felt relieved that James bothered to explain because it meant he was worried about her feelings.She believed that as long as she worked at it, James would come to love her eventually.

Both James and Blake felt that it was a fair trade.Blake had tried for decades to obtain a cultivation method to become a grandmaster but to no avail.“James, I’ll give you all my wealth in exchange for the cultivation method.” Blake stood up and looked at James ecstatically. “Alright, deal.” James smiled brightly.He took out a notebook he had written in long ago and handed it to Blake, saying, “I’ve had it ready all along.”Blake took the notebook and opened it, quickly scanning through the text. Indeed, there was a cultivation method jotted down in the book.Blake’s hands trembled with excitement. It had been twenty years. He finally acquired a cultivation method after twenty years of hard work.At last, he could avenge his family. He wanted to scream to release his pent-up emotions.“You got the cultivation method. So, the money?”“I’ll transfer the money to you from my overseas account right away. As for the remainder of the treasures, we’ll retrieve them bit by bit. Gi

After bidding farewell, Blake hurried off.James picked his phone up to call Thea. He wanted to confirm Quincy’s arrival.As soon as he raised his phone, Thea called.He answered the phone.“Honey, are you coming home today?”“No. I’m going to Cynthia’s place since my medical book is there. I have to practice the Invincible Body Siddhi technique.”“I’ll come to you, then.”Thea did not say anything more and hung up the phone.James wanted to ask about Quincy, but Thea had already ended the call. He decided to wait till they met at Cynthia’s house to ask about it.He left the company and went straight to Cynthia’s house.When he arrived, he found Thea chatting with Cynthia. Thea stood up upon seeing James. She pulled him close and said, “Honey, I’ve decided to train in the military region for a while.”James frowned and said, “Didn’t I tell you not to? You won’t be able to endure the training.”“I can do it,” Thea said with resolution.“Fine.”James thought for a while a

James was relieved to have Quincy back in the company.With both Quincy and Scarlett around, the company could operate smoothly. After explaining the overall situation, James went back to his room.Meanwhile, in a particular villa in Cansington…Madelyn's residence in Cansington.She had seen Thea today and was surprised to learn that Thea possessed a significant amount of True Energy that was even higher than hers.Madelyn could not comprehend how an ordinary person could become a grandmaster of the third rank in such a short period.She leaned back on the sofa and pensively propped her chin on her slender arms. Suddenly, a young man walked toward her.The man was in his early twenties with flowy shoulder-length hair. He was dressed in a buttoned shirt and had a distinctive temperament.“You’re here?”Madelyn returned to her senses and looked at the young man beside her.The young man sat down, crossed his legs, and looked at her. “Madelyn, sinc

“Alright.”Madelyn hung up the phone. Then, she started thinking about possible reasons why James was getting in contact with Blake at this time.Blake was the founder of a killer organization. Although he was strong, he was nothing in front of a grandmaster.The night passed by silently.The next morning. James woke up early.In the living room of Cynthia’s villa.A few people gathered.Quincy said, “James, I already called Scarlett last night to fire the moles. I’ll head to the company and use our company’s funds to try and talk to a few of the small factories threatened by Centennial.”“Mhm.” James nodded. “Be careful, and don’t turn off your phone. I’ll have someone tracking you, so call immediately if anything happens.”“Alright. I’ll head out.” Quincy bid farewell and left the villa.Thea looked at James and asked, “Honey, are you going to the military region?”“Yeah. Let’s go.”James stood up and looked at Cynthia and Tiara, saying, “I won’t be in Cansington for so

James realized he had lost his composure and sat down again, asking, “Blithe King, is this news confirmed?”The Blithe King replied, “Of course, it’s true. Although I’m of a collateral lineage, this news has spread throughout our entire family. I also heard the Blithes are planning to reveal themselves to the world. I’m telling you this because you’re from the Cadens and are also acquainted with Maxine.”“Huff!” James sighed.He never expected the Cadens to have a marriage with the Blithes, and the Blithes’ background surprised him even more.The Blithe King looked at James. “James…” James noticed his hesitant expression and said, “Go ahead.”“Although I’m from the Blithes, I’m not qualified to cultivate True Energy. I’m old and don’t expect to master Internal Martial Arts, but I have a son who’s turning eighteen this year. Since you’re from the Cadens and have cultivated True Energy… Could you possibly give him a few pointers?”The Blithe King had never asked anyone for anythi

These rules were the reason martial arts had died down.However, it was also a good thing for society. It would be difficult to manage a country if everyone practiced martial arts.The Blithe King opened his heart to James, sharing about his wife’s incident.James listened attentively to him.Soon, Blake arrived.In the military region, dozens of helicopters were ready in an open field.James looked at Blake and asked, “So, where are your treasures, Blake?”Blake replied with a smile, “It’s in a natural cavern in Mount White. I spent a lot of effort to move everything there.”James nodded and looked at the Blithe King with a smile. “Blithe King, I need one more favor from you.”“With our relationship, you can just tell me, and I’ll do my best to help.”James said, “Thea wants to undergo military training for some time. Could you arrange for that?”“Thea?”The Blithe King turned to Thea in disbelief.Thea had delicate and fair skin, and she looked incredibly fragile. The
