Female Novel
Chapter 1193
The power disparity in True Energy between a sixth-rank and a seventh-rank martial artist was huge.
James was confident he could defeat anyone below the eighth rank.
He descended from the sky and landed steadily on the ground.
A group of people walked toward him. In the lead was Lucjan, who said smilingly, “Congratulations,
James. You managed to reach the seventh rank at such a young age. You’re perhaps the first to do so
in centuries.”
Looking at Lucjan, a grin crept up on James’ face.
When his grandfather gave him the elixirs, he told him to do what he must.
James’ grin sent shivers down Lucjan’s spine. He had no idea what James was thinking about.
Bryce said, “Congratulations.”
“How strong… You’ve reached the seventh rank before the age of thirty. You’ll be the top martial artist
in the world in another few decades.”
“You’re invincible.”
The Twelve Zodiacs showered James with praise.
Meanwhile, James asked, “How many days do we have till the Mount Thunder Conference?”
Lucjan composed himself and said, “Three days left. Some of the most powerful ancient martial artists
of Sol have already gathered at the Mount Thunder Sect.”novelbin
James asked, “What’s your next plan?”
Lucjan said, “While you were in closed-door meditation, the Gu Devil visited me and told me that the
Supreme Leader has arrived at the Mount Thunder Sect. He wanted me to head over there as soon as
possible.”
Hearing this, James frowned. “Is Callan not afraid of being attacked on all sides at the Mount Thunder
Sect?”
Lucjan laughed. “That won’t happen. This is a gathering of all ancient martial artists, after all. Before
the conference commences, no one will dare to make the first move. Besides, as the Supreme Leader
wears a mask at all times, no one will know his true identity.”
“Oh!” James continued, “In that case, let’s head over to the Mount Thunder Sect too. But, will I be
attacked if I simply go without any preparations?”
James was slightly concerned.
After all, he had murdered many people there. Although it was all an act, the disciples of those sects
and the families were not in the know. They could be enraged upon seeing him.
“I’ve already prepared a mask in advance.” Saying that, Lucjan clapped.
Aphrodite and Venus walked over to James. Glancing at James with a look of admiration, one of them
handed him a black mask.
James took it and said, “Let’s go.”
Saying that, he turned and headed in the direction of the Mount Thunder Sect. Lucjan, Bryce, the
Twelve Zodiacs, and Lucjan’s subordinates all followed close behind.
Along the way, Lucjan said, “James, this year’s Mount Thunder Conference will be extraordinary. This
is the first time every ancient martial artist in Sol has gathered in centuries. For hundreds of years, the
ancient martial artists have been at each other’s throats. First, there was the grudge between the Gu
Sect and the others. Then, there was the power struggle between the Ancient Four. Things might turn
ugly at this conference.”
However, James was unconcerned. He only wanted to know which martial artists would be present.
“Who will be there at the Mount Thunder Conference?” He asked.
Lucjan said, “I don’t know either. Most ancient martial artists perished in the battle against the Gu Sect
a century ago. No one knows who exactly has emerged in their place. Perhaps Winston Blithe of the
Blithe family can be considered a newly emerged contender. Also, let’s not forget the powerful figures
of the Ancient Four. They’re all seventh-rank martial artists, after all. Maybe…”
He paused for a brief moment.
“Perhaps the founder of Sol is still alive.”
“What?” James exclaimed.
“Yes, Lance, the founder of Sol. He was only fifty years old when he was the first King of Sol. Not only
that, he’s a fifth-rank martial artist. With the explosion of technological advances in the past decades,
extending one’s lifespan is a piece of cake. If everything went well, he would be around a hundred and
fifty years old this year. If he’s still alive, reaching the seventh rank shouldn’t be a problem for him.
Perhaps he’d even made a breakthrough into the eighth rank.”
“Mhm.” James nodded slightly.
