Female Novel
Chapter 1476
During this time, Maxine had deliberately gotten closer to the other family heads.The Cadens, Lee, and Sullivans out of the Ancient Four were the stronger families.
As for the Johnstons, their Grand Patriarch, Yaakov, was killed by James, and their family had taken a serious blow in terms ofstrength.
Moreover, one of their elders, Kennedy, was killed by Thea. The Johnstons were horrified and had been keeping a low profile.Maxine also knew it would be impossible to recruit them, so she did not bother wasting her time.
The Lees and Sullivans were the two families she could try to win over.
Maxine spoke for a long time.
“I've already said enough. You two should think about it yourselves.”
Yasmine stood up first and said, “I'll seriously consider it. I’ll take my leave for now.”
With that said, she turned and left.
Zaiden also stood up and said, “We'll meet again.”
The two left together.
Zaiden asked, “What do you think, Mrs. Lee?”
Yasmine thought for a while and said, “The current situation isn't looking optimistic. There’s the Celestial Sect that suddenlyshowed up. Moreover, the Gu Sect and Orient Commerce have been making big moves recently. Many families and sects havestarted taking sides. We won't be left unharmed even if we try to avoid it.”
“Yeah.”
Zaiden sighed. “In this upcoming battle, winning is the only option. We'll end up like the Gu Sect a hundred years ago if we lose.We'll have to be incredibly cautious in making a decision. Even if we don’t take action, we'll have to express our stance.”
The situation was chaotic, and no one could stay out of it.
Even if they tried, once the situation settled down, their outcome would be the same as the Gu Sect a hundred years ago.Ultimately, they would still be wiped out.
The two walked out of the Cadens’ mansion together.
As soon as they arrived at the gates, they saw a military vehicle approaching from the distance. Soon, it stopped at the gate ofCadens’ mansion.
James and Thea got out of the car.
Seeing Yasmine and Zaiden at the door, James walked over and said with a smile, “What a coincidence to bump into you twohere.”
Yasmine and Zaiden exchanged looks with each other.Both of them turned to James simultaneously.
Yasmine said with a smile, “It’s you, Emperor. | haven't seen you in a while. You're looking so much younger. It seems yourcultivation has improved again.”
James smiled and replied, “I was lucky enough to obtain a core and step into the eighth rank.”It was no secret that James was an eighth-ranked grandmaster.
Zaiden clasped his hands together and said, “Congratulations!”
Then, he turned around and left.
Yasmine took a glance at James and also congratulated him. Then, she turned and left too.
James did not bother with the two of them and entered the gates of the Cadens’ mansion.
The servants led James and Thea to the reception hall.
Maxine had not left yet.
Seeing James and Thea arrive, she stood up with a smile. “James, Thea, what brings the both of you here?”James sat down and said, “I’ve got a question for you.”
Maxine sat down and gestured for them to sit too. “Sure, go ahead.”novelbin
