“Also, I think you should bring Thea to the Capital.
“While this is all going on, you’ll have to ensure that everything in Cansington is operating safely. You’llbe fighting in the front line but at the same time, you can’t let your rear end catch on fire. Desperatepeople will do anything to save themselves when they’re forced into a corner. It'd be best to leave somepeople from the God -King Palace in Cansington to protect Quincy and the others.”
Maxine conducted a simple analysis and carefully presented her thoughts on every part of their plan.
“Mhm.” James nodded. It was a well-thought and sensible plan. He picked up the phone and calledBlake.
“James, it’s good to hear from you, brother! I’ve got good news to share with you. I succeeded incultivating my True Energy.”
Blake’s joyful exclamation was the first thing James heard when he answered the call.novelbin
James was shocked.
Blake progressed at an astonishing speed. He managed to cultivate his True Energy in slightly over amonth.иσν???вσσк.￠σм This seemed totally natural for a descendant of the Gu Sect.
“I’m in the Capital and I’ve got a new mission for you. Come here and I'll brief you on the details inperson.”
“Alright.” Blake agreed without hesitating.
Afterward, James called Thea and asked her to secretly make her way to the Capital.
“Also...”
After James had made the two phone calls, Maxine spoke again, “If I were Mr. Gabriel or the factionthat was behind him, I’d take extreme measures if I was cornered.”
Maxine explained her rationale, “Mr. Gabriel's death would mark the beginning of a battle between thetwo factions. Once the Gu Sect realizes there’s no hope of winning, they'll try to attack and seize Sol byforce using Gu.
“Over the years, they’ve been pouring funds into researching Gu. The result is an artificial virus that’sable to modify a human’s body structure, which can make an ordinary person incredibly strong. We’llneed to take this into account while preventing a battle from breaking out.
“You can contact several of your general friends. However, there’s no guarantee they aren't from theGu Sect. The only people we can trust are the Black Dragon Army. They must be deployed to theCapital to protect the city.”
James made a groan of disagreement. “If I dispatch the Black Dragon army, wouldn't that move alertour enemies instead?”
“I’m not asking you to do it now. I mean after Mr. Gabriel’s death. The Black Dragon Army has to enterthe Capital and join forces with the Red Flame Army to keep the other faction in check. As long as wecan prevent them from taking action, everything else will be resolved quite easily.
“After all these things are settled, the next thing to worry about will be the Mount Thunder Conference.Whoever becomes the new Great Grandmaster will be able to command all the martial artists in Sol.We can’t let someone from the Gu Sect snatch the title. Otherwise, all our efforts will go to waste.”
“Huff.” James took a deep breath.
Everything was so complicated. Fighting on the Southern Plains was much simpler.
James picked up another cigarette and lit it.
Maxine eyed the cigarette and chided him, “Also, you should smoke less. It’s only been a short whilesince your last one and you've already smoked so many.”
James ignored her advice and pretended not to hear it.
“The Ancient Four and the countless ancient martial artists have always avoided involving themselvesin political quarrels. After the new Great Grandmaster is selected, will it finally spur them into action?”
Maxine nodded affirmatively. “Yes, definitely. Ancient martial artists don’t acknowledge anyone elseother than the Great Grandmaster. A hundred years ago, the Great Grandmaster from the MountThunder Sect stepped forward and called for support.
Only then did other ancient martial artists join the battle. After his death, all sects and martial familieshid in seclusion. They vowed never to interfere with worldly matters again. This is why the position ofthe Great Grandmaster is crucial.
“Moreover, I suspect Mr. Gabriel is confident he’ll obtain the position since he proposed the MountThunder Conference right when the Ancient Four was about to have a go at each other. He wanted toprevent the Ancient Four from conflicting. Otherwise, the situation would be out of their control.”
As he listened to Maxine speak, he opened his mouth to ask her a question, “In your opinion, who’s thestrongest person in the world currently? Who's the most likely to win the position of GreatGrandmaster?”
Maxine shot him an incredulous look. “How would I know? It depends on whether the eighth-rankgrandmaster decides to participate or not. It'll be a fight between the seventh-rank grandmasters if he
doesn't join in.”
