Chapter 1059
Maxine continued. “The only eighth-rank grandmaster we know of is the Great Patriarch of the Blithe
family. They’re demonstrating great ambition and will definitely attend this conference. If the Blithes are
part of the Gu Sect, that’ll be troublesome for us.”
Maxine was worried.
James had no supporters.
It was not feasible for James to face an entire faction all on his own.
“It’s no big deal. The King will lend me a hand if the situation turns dire. After all, it’s a battle between
two factions and not mine alone.”
“I’m relieved, but…”
Maxine glanced at Jams and said, “If the eighth-rank grandmaster doesn’t attend, then the Great
Grandmaster will be selected from the seventh-ranked grandmasters. You’ve already stepped into the
sixth rank, and with your Invincible Body Siddhi, you have a chance of standing against a seventh-rank
grandmaster. There’s a real possibility of you winning the title of the Great Grandmaster. Even if you
don’t fight for it, you still have to…”
“What do I still have to do?” James looked at Maxine and cocked his brow.
“You’ll have to sabotage the conference,” Maxine smirked.
“Now, with everything laid out, we need someone to sabotage the conference so it can’t proceed
smoothly.”
“Oh, what’s your plan?”
“I don’t have one yet. I’ll have to see how everything unfolds first.”
James and Maxine discussed the details of their plan in the Emperor’s mansion.
Meanwhile, Madelyn arrived in the Capital and made her way to an independent suburb courtyard to
look for Mr. Gabriel.
“Mr. Gabriel, the situation has changed. The King may be planning to take action soon.”
Madelyn looked at the middle-aged man warming himself by the fire with a worried look on her face.
Mr. Gabriel asked calmly, “What did you hear, pray tell?”
“James has been appointed as the new Emperor.”
“That’s not a surprise. The position has been vacant for some time now, and someone had to be
appointed eventually. Unfortunately, our side did not manage to garner enough votes,” Mr. Gabriel
replied offhandedly.
Madelyn tooka breath before continuing, “Maxine was kicked out of the Cadens. These two incidents
aren’t a coincidence. The three families from the Ancient Four are targeting the Cadens. Now that the
relationship between the Blithes and the Cadens has fallen apart, the Cadens don’t have any allies.novelbin
The only way for them to protect their family is by allying with the King.”
“That cunning fox Tobias knew that if he declared his allegiance right now, other families would follow
suit and start picking sides. The forces will be clearly divided, and a battle will break out. Thus, he
kicked Maxine out of the family so she could help James without involving the Cadens.”
Madelyn explained her view on the situation.
Mr. Gabriel did not seem the least bit perturbed and said indifferently, “So what? What can James do?”
It was all part of his plan to force the Cadens into a corner where they would have no choice but to ally
with the King.
When that happens, the other three families that show resentment toward the Cadens would naturally
choose an opposing side.
He waved his hand and said, “Go back to Cansington. Our time is running out. We need to speed
things up.”
“Understood.”
Madelyn silently and reluctantly left the room.
She specifically rushed back to Cansington to warn him, but Mr. Gabriel seemed entirely unbothered. It
was as if this was all part of his plan too.
After leaving the room, Madelyn murmured with a serious expression, “Could it be that Mr. Gabriel is
holding onto a trump card? I wonder who or what it is.”
Madelyn was unable to figure it out and stopped thinking about it. She shook her head and left the
courtyard.
At the same time, James and Maxine were waiting for Blake and Thea’s arrival.
The two rushed over to the Capital once James had called them.
At noon, Blake arrived at the Emperor’s Mansion.
“Tsk, tsk! James! You were already Dragon King of the Southern Plains, and now you’re also the new
Emperor in charge of the Red Flame Army? You are only second to the king in terms of power in Sol!”
Blake began to ramble after sitting down.
