“Huff!” Quintina heaved a sigh in relief. She turned to James and scolded him, “Do you have a death wish? Why would you joke about something like that?”James said with a playful smile, “What if I say it’s true, but I turned your father down?” “...” Quintina was stunned.She felt that James was not lying since her father had mentioned it to her before.“You turned him down? Why would you turn him down?”Quintina stared at James, then scanned herself, saying, “Is it because I’m not pretty enough? Or am I not charming enough? Or is there something about me that isn’t worthy of you?”Although Quintina did not have any feelings for James, she was slightly confused about why James would refuse to marry her.She was the daughter of the Ancient Clan’s leader. Countless suitors had come for her hand in marriage. Many people wanted to marry her and build a relationship with the Ancient Clan.Quintina stared at James and asked for an explanation. “It’s because I’m married.”Think

The Zaydons did not dare to do anything to Melany because she had become a disciple of the Welkin Academy.She would be doomed if she was expelled from the Welkin Academy and lost her status.“Don’t worry. I’m here for you. Even if the sky falls, I’ll hold it up for you.”With a nonchalant expression, James said, “Just because we don’t cause trouble doesn’t mean we’re afraid of trouble.”“Huff,” Melany sighed helplessly.She knew James was determined to avenge her, so it was useless to dissuade him, as she could not convince him no matter what she said.“Let’s set things straight first, James. If the situation gets out of hand, please don’t act tough. I don’t want to drag you down.”“It’ll be fine!” James gave Melany a big grin and pulled her away.As they left the ordinary disciple’s accommodation, James learned about the person who had robbed Melany and the others.His name was Yitzchok Griffin, and he was the younger brother of the United Alliance’s deputy leader.“From wh

Lochan immediately stepped forward and blocked James.With a gloomy face, he said, “I’ve already sent someone to look for him, James. Have a little patience. Don’t act recklessly. With your strength, I don’t think you’re strong enough to make an enemy out of the United Alliance. Our alliance isn’t one you can easily destroy.”James replied calmly, “I already warned you I’d destroy the United Alliance if he didn’t show up within ten minutes. Time is up, but he’s not here. So, don’t blame me for taking action.”Many disciples had gathered outside the United Alliance’s base.Hearing James’ words, they could not help but admire him for his guts.“He’s awesome.”“No one has ever dared to challenge the United Alliance since its establishment.”‘“His name is James, right? Did he just join the Welkin Academy?”“How is he so strong?”“Could it be he’s not happy to be an ordinary disciple and wants to cause trouble to get the attention of our elders or even the headmaster so he can beco

Thinking of this, he pointed at the arrogant Yitzchok and said coldly, “Today, he must hand over what he robbed, or else…”“Or else what?”Hayden’s face darkened, and he said, “The matter is already very clear. That woman beside you tried to take the elixirs for herself and injured the other women.”“Haha,” James smiled disdainfully and said, “She injured the other women? Are you kidding me? She hasn’t even reached the Herculean Rank, and those women just now are already Herculeans. How could she have taken on the three of them alone?”Hearing his remark, the spectators were shocked.“That’s true.”“It’s unreasonable.”“How can someone not even at the Herculean Rank take on three Herculeans? Could it be they really lied?”At that moment, many people began to stand on James’ side.Meanwhile, Yitzchok panicked and said frantically, “Sh-She threatened them that you were backing her up. They knew you’re a disciple of one of our elders, so they didn’t dare to fight back.”“Bullsh*

Quintina had a rough understanding of James’ strength.Although he had cultivated in the Pagoda of Flames for half a year, he was still not a match for Hayden. Hayden was Elder Waheed’s disciple and also the United Alliance’s deputy leader. His cultivation rank had already reached the Immortal Ascension’s Eighth Stair.She was worried James would lose and have to kneel for three days. Thus, she suggested, “James, just admit it’s your fault and let this go. Don’t make a big deal out of it.”Quintina came over because she heard James was causing trouble in the United Alliance’s base. She was worried James would be bullied, so she came to have a look.Standing aside, Melany tugged his hand and whispered, “J-James, forget it. I didn’t lose much anyway. I only sustained minor injuries and will be fine after cultivating for some time.”After speaking, she looked at Hayden. Then, she glanced at Yitzchok, who was being helped up by some other people.“I’m sorry, Mr. Hayden. W-We’ll lea
