Chapter 1085
The temperature in the room gradually dropped after James restrained his energy. Maxine felt much
better and walked over, saying, “James, your True Energy has become much stronger now.”
James nodded. “Well, it’s indeed a little stronger. By the way, what time is it right now?”
Maxine said, “Seven in the morning.”
“Then, I must rush to the military region as soon as possible.”
James walked out of the room.
In the yard, Thea was still cultivating.
She had been working very hard for the past two days. Apart from eating and sleeping, she was
cultivating.novelbin
When James came out, she stopped and walked toward him. She looked at James pleadingly and
said, “Honey, can I come with you?”
“It’s best you don’t. Those in attendance are from the military, government, and business circles. Why
would a woman like you go to such a place? You should stay at home in peace. I’ll be back soon.”
James refused.
“Fine.” Thea looked disappointed.
James turned around and left.
Outside the Emperor’s Mansion, a military vehicle was waiting for James.
James walked out, and the soldiers at the door immediately saluted him uniformly.
James got into the military vehicle.
The military vehicle quickly set off and rushed to the Red Flame Army base.
Meanwhile, the Johnstons' yard was filled with people, including the head of the Johnstons, the head of
the Sullivans, and the head of the Lees, Hades, Zaiden, and Yasmine.
Additionally, some martial artists from the three respective families were also present.
Yasmine said worriedly, “James’ succession ceremony is being held at the Red Flame Army base.
There will be many important people attending today. Most of them are people with reputations in the
Capital, and even the King will be there. The security is going to be incredibly strict. Plus, the Red
Flame Army base is heavily guarded with potent weapons. If a conflict were to break out and James
gave an order, it wouldn’t be easy for us to escape unharmed.”
Hades waved his hand and said, “You worry too much, Yasmine. Our target is James. The Red Flame
Army will not act rashly, and James won’t allow them to act recklessly either.”
Zaiden said, “That’s true. There are countless important people present. If a conflict breaks out and
people die during the ceremony, James will not be able to bear the responsibility. Thus, he will have no
choice but to follow us obediently.”
With that said, Yasmine was relieved.
Hades stood up and ordered, “Hear my command. We’re departing now!”
“Yes, Sir!”
Hundreds of martial artists replied in unison, causing a deafening sound wave.
The martial artists of the three families departed mightily to the Red Flame Army base.
While the three families departed to the Red Flame Army base, the King also departed from Peace
Mansion.
After walking out of Peace Mansion, he whispered to one of the guards behind him.
“Understood.” The guard nodded and left.
He quickly went to the Cadens’ mansion to meet Tobias.
Inside the reception hall of the Cadens’ mansion, Tobias sat and looked at the guard with a frown. He
asked, “What are you here to see me for?”
The guard replied respectfully, “Mr. Tobias, The King has instructed me to inform you that he’s received
information that the Johnstons, Sullivans, and Lees are taking action against James during his
succession ceremony today. They learned about James practicing the cultivation method in the Four
Great Paintings, allowing his strength to improve by leaps and bounds. They plan to capture and
interrogate James about the four paintings’ secrets.”
After the guard relayed the message, he turned around and left without waiting for a reply from Tobias.
Tobias' face immediately darkened.
He slammed the table and broke it into pieces.
