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 aserious blow in terms of strength.
Moreover, one of their elders, Kennedy, was killed by Thea. The Johnstons were horrified and hadbeen. 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?”novelbin
Yasmine thought for a while and said, “The current situation isn’t looking optimistic. There’s theCelestial Sect that suddenly showed up. Moreover, the Gu Sect and Orient Commerce have been
making big moves recently. Many families and sects have started taking sides. We won’t be leftunharmed 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 ahundred years ago if we lose. We’ll have to be incredibly cautious in making a decision. Even if wedon’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 ahundred 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 of Cadens’ 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 acoincidence to bump into you two here.”
Yasmine and Zaiden exchanged looks with each other.
Both of them turned to James simultaneously.
Yasmine said with a smile, “It’s you, Emperor. I haven’t seen you in a while. You’re looking so muchyounger. It seems your cultivation 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 youhere?”
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.”
James asked, “Have you heard of a person called White Eagle? His nickname is Eagle King.”
Maxine nodded gently and said, “This person made a name for himself thirty years ago. He wiped out awhole family in one night and has been wanted by the martial art world ever since. It’s rumored thathe’s a ruthless person that did not even spare a baby. What’s wrong, James? Why’re you suddenlyasking about Eagle King?”
James explained, “He’s the Left Envoy of the Celestial Sect. He came to me today and said theCelestial Sect is willing to support me to purge the Capital.”
Hearing this, Maxine could not help but glance at Thea.
Thea touched her nose and asked, “Why’re you looking at me? I’ve never heard of this man calledEagle King before.”
Maxine shifted her gaze and chuckled. “Recently, the Celestial Sect has been making bold moves.However, I’ve never heard of them doing anything unreasonable. It’s a good thing they’re willing tohelp. you, James. Don’t worry about it too much and make good use of the Celestial Sect’s influence.”
