Chapter 1544

Thomas stood by the bed, looking at James, who had a pained expression.

At that moment, his expression became solemn.

He kept a close eye on James to immediately pull him out of danger if something were to go wrong.

With his proficiency in medical skills, he could still save James if he acted in time.

However, this ordeal would leave James a cripple even if Thomas were to rescue him in time.

This was not the way James‘ destiny was supposed to play out.

Thomas fell into silent contemplation.

“Oh right, he still needs one more push to help him over the edge.”

Thomas suddenly remembered something.

The founder of Polaris Sect created the Nine Scriptures of Ordeals out of desperation.

In addition to desperation, he had a dream.

He wanted to be the world’s greatest martial artist. He dreamed of defeating the Prince of OrchidMountain, who beat him and destroyed his cultivation base.

There was another prerequisite to master another person’s martial art and that is to have a similarenvironment and experience the same emotions as its founder.

Only by doing so will one be able to completely master others‘ martial art.

James also had dreams and ambitions.

However, he had not reached the same level of despair as the founder of Polaris Sect.novelbin

“What can I do to drive him over the edge?”

Thomas fell into thought.

Ten seconds later, he suddenly had a revelation.

“James, haven’t you always been curious about the identity of Celestial Sect’s leader? I can tell youright now if you want to know so badly. The Celestial Sect’s leader… Is your wife, Thea.”

Just when James was about to lose consciousness, a voice whispered into his ears.

Boom!

These words caused his mind to explode.

“What? Celestial Sect’s leader is Thea? Is it really her?”

James had a suspicion it was her prior to this but never had the evidence to confirm it.

“Impossible! That’s absolutely impossible! How could Thea be so strong? How could she wield thesword so expertly?”

“It’s true.”

Thomas continued in a nonchalant voice. “I’m sure you remember that the Spirit Turtle’s blood flows inThea’s body. The Spirit Turtle’s blood has untold powers, and she borrowed its power to increase herown.

“As for her swordsmanship, she practiced the Demonic Sword Art. It was found in the martial artsheirloom left within the Snow Cavern of Mount Thunder Sect by the Prince of Orchid Mountain’sstrongest subordinate, the Malevolent King. The Malevolent King created the sword technique while ina state of insanity.

“Your grandfather warned Thea that the Spirit Turtle’s blood was evil and that she should never rely onit.

“That day in the Snow Cavern, your grandfather also told her about the Demonic Sword Art, but heknew it was a malicious technique, so he warned her not to practice it.

“However, Thea secretly went to the Snow Cavern of Mount Thunder Sect and learned the DemonicSword Art.

“Everything I’m telling you is the truth.

“Thea has great ambitions and plans to dominate the world, to become the ruler of the ancient martialworld.”

“No, that’s impossible. Thea is not like that,” James refused to accept it.

“She may not have been someone like that, but the Spirit Turtle’s blood flows within her. It’ll influenceher, so it’s very likely that she’s changed since then. You’ve also refined the Spirit Turtle’s core yourself.Do you find yourself harboring intense desires from time to time?

“If the core alone is enough to awaken these desires in you, can you imagine how much worse it wouldbe with the blood?

“Thea is no longer the one you knew from the past. She’s just using you, that’s all.”

Thomas‘ voice kept echoed mockingly in James‘ ears.

James was utterly blindsided.

He had his doubts and suspicions about her.

Thea was the only one that could control the Malevolent Sword. He even questioned her before, butThea said she had passed the sword to Maxine.

Then, he asked Maxine about it.

However, Maxine said she had lost the sword.

“Ha!”

James cackled darkly.

It never occurred to him that the woman beside him would lie to him that way.

Moreover, she even secretly established the Celestial Sect.

James‘ heart sank into a pit.

The sorrow he felt after discovering that Thea was the Celestial Sect’s leader all along was moreprofound than when he divorced her.

Everything felt meaningless to him at that singular moment.

He wanted to resolve the issues plaguing the Capital and live an ordinary life with Thea.

However, it seems Thea had other plans all along.
