Chapter 2006

At the same time, in Cansington…

Cynthia walked out of her room wearing pajamas. Unable to fall asleep, she headed to the living roomdownstairs and scrolled through the Martial Arts Forum. She wanted to know if anything significant hadhappened over the past few days.

The moment she logged into the forum, she saw two messages that James had posted. Upon readingthrough the messages, she could not help but exclaim, “J-James is still alive?”

She could not believe her eyes. Holding the phone in her hand, she hurriedly ran upstairs and knockedon a door.novelbin

Knock! Knock! Knock!

“Maxine! Maxine!”

However, no matter how hard she knocked, no one answered the door. So, she pushed the door openand entered the room.

When she entered, she saw Maxine sitting in a lotus position on the bed. Wearing white pajamas, herlong black hair was on end, and her eyes were bloodshot. Green veins were popping out all over herface.

Cynthia’s blood ran cold and she unconsciously turned to leave.

Fwoosh!

In an instant, Maxine appeared before her and choked her.

Fortunately, Maxine immediately regained consciousness. Her eyes and complexion returned tonormal, and she hurriedly released Cynthia, asking, “What happened, Cynthia?”

Upon seeing Maxine return to normal, a chill ran down Cynthia’s spine as she said, “You were scaryjust now, Maxine.”

“I-Is that so?”

Maxine was puzzled. She only remembered that she was in the middle of cultivating and had norecollection of what happened a moment ago.

Ever since the incident at the Floret Palace three years ago, Maxine had returned to Cansington to livealongside Cynthia and Tiara.

“Y-Yes… Maxine, did you just experience Energy Deviation?”

Cynthia looked at her fearfully.

Maxine shook her head slightly and said, “I don’t know either. I only know that I will lose control ofmyself sometimes as my strength increases. Desires will surface in my mind. Not only that, but amysterious power will appear whenever I catalyze True Energy. Sometimes, I have a feeling that I’mbeing controlled by it.”

“Huh? What’s going on?” Cynthia asked.

Maxine shook her head slightly and said, “Nevermind… In any case, I’ll be careful from now on. By theway, is something the matter?”

Cynthia pulled her phone out and handed it over to Maxine.

“There’s a user on the Martial Arts Forum who claims to be James!”

Maxine was stunned when she heard this. With shivering hands, she took the phone and read through

James’ message.

“Is that really him?”

Maxine could not believe her eyes.

Three years ago, the entire Floret Palace was flattened, and the mountain on which Floret Palace wasconstructed was reduced to rubble. Many searched for James but to no avail.

To Maxine, James was already dead. He only existed in her memories.

Now that this happened, she was both overjoyed and stunned.

“Maxine, do you think he’s James?” Cynthia asked.

Maxine returned the phone to Cynthia and said, “In any case, I’m heading over to Mount Bane.” Then,she changed out of her sleepwear and headed to Mount Bane immediately.
