Thea was also shocked by the sight.What was going on?“W-Who are you people?” Thea looked at the people kneeling on the ground.The man in the lead said respectfully, “Ms. Thea, the Dragon King has given us the order to escort you to the villa.”Thea was stunned and quickly questioned, “James? Where is he?” “Please come with us, Ms. Thea. You’ll know once we arrive at the villa.”Maxine walked toward Thea, cast a glance at her, and asked, “You don’t believe their nonsense, right?”Obviously, Thea did not believe them. She was not that stupid.However, James was being controlled, and meeting up with him would be challenging. Still, it was necessary to meet up with him to discuss the situation.Thea replied, “I’ll come with you.”Maxine quickly pulled her back and said, “Are you stupid? James went through so much trouble to rescue Quincy and the others. You’ll be walking into a trap if you follow them. Wouldn’t you be causing him more trouble if they captured and used you to

The master of Medical Valley, Medical Saint, looked at James, who was sitting on a rock with his sword stuck in the ground. He walked over with his hands clasped and said, “Medical Valley has an appointment in Mt. Thunder. Why are you blocking our path?”James slowly stood up and picked up his long sword stuck in the snow.He pointed his sword horizontally at the party from Medical Valley.“I’m here to claim your lives.”The disciples from Medical Valley were shocked by his words and backed away upon hearing them.News that James had killed the Mount Thunder Sect’s leader, Jackson, had spread throughout the ancient martial world.The Mount Thunder Sect had already issued a global wanted order for James.“James, don’t be presumptuous! Do you think you’re invincible?” An elder from Medical Valley opened his mouth and criticized his behavior.“As the Dragon King of the Southern Plains and commander of the Red Flame Army in the Capital, how can you be helping the evildoers do evil?

Jackson nodded and said, “However, I hadn’t shown up since, so James has already been stigmatized. Unfortunately, he has to endure the ridicule for now to eliminate the Gu Sect once and for all.”Hearing this, the Medical Valley disciples immediately understood the situation.Jackson asked, “Medical Saint, have you passed out the medicine to the others?Medical Saint wore a serious expression and said, “I didn’t have much time and lacked contacts. However, I’ve passed it on to all the people I trust. As for those that didn’t have firm stands, I didn’t dare to give it to them as the Gu Sect’s moles must have already infiltrated them. I didn’t want to let the cat out of the bag.”“Is the medicine reliable?”“Mhm, of course. It’s a unique formula from Medical Valley. After taking it, one will see no signs of life and be no different from a dead person. No one will be able to find anything abnormal. I believe that James is a smart person and will understand that those who don’t fight

“Understood!” The people escorting Thea quickly chased after her.Bryce looked at James and patted his shoulder, saying with a smile, “You’re pretty wise, James. You understand the current situation and know that we’re the only ones who can protect you and Thea. Don’t worry. If you follow Mr. Owen, he’ll protect you and the Callahans. No one will dare to touch them.”James looked at him but said nothing in return.He sat down on a rock and took out a cigarette.Just as he was about to take out a lighter, Aphrodite, who was behind him, took out a lighter and quickly approached him to light his cigarette.James took a deep drag, and smoke billowed into the air.“I hope Lucjan will send Thea back safely. If not, there’s no need for me to continue on with this cooperation.”James feared nothing but Lucjan holding Thea as a hostage.This would affect his whole plan.Bryce replied with confidence, “Don’t worry. That’s for sure. Mr. Owen cherishes talents/ He definitely won’t make th

James did not believe Bryce's nonsense.He stood aside and gestured for the Blithes to go on. “Go ahead.”The people from the Blithes did not leave because Donovan did not move.Donovan had doubts in his heart.He was unsure of James' relationship with the old man that defeated him in Mount Littleroot.“I have a question for you, James. What’s your relationship with the old man who defeated me in Mount Littleroot that day?”James smiled lightly and avoided his question. “What’s wrong? You don’t want to leave? If that’s the case, how about we have a match?”Suddenly raising his hand, the Blade of Justice shot up to the sky, and James accurately caught it.Whoosh!He drew the Blade of Justice out of its sheath.“Forget it. You win.”Donovan chose not to fight with James and left with the Blithes. After leaving, an elder of the Blithes said, “Donovan, that young man killed the Mount Thunder’s leader. They’ve issued a wanted order for his head and will reward anyone who kills
