“Mr. Lee, the head of the Johnstons, Sullivans, and Lees have personally visited today, saying they’re planning to deal with James in three days.”“Mhm.” Mr. Lee nodded.The King said, “James was planning to kill Mr. Gabriel. Logically speaking, Mr. Gabriel wasn’t supposed to pay much attention to James. However, James’ strength was exposed. How did it get exposed? I’m sure someone must’ve told Mr. Gabriel, causing him to have his guard up. Thus, he approached the three families’ heads to unite and eliminate James.”Mr. Lee replied, “That makes sense. Do you think we should save him or not?”The King said, “The plan was to let the Ancient Four fight among themselves and exhaust them to give us an opening to get them all simultaneously. Now seems to be a good chance. My guess is that Tobias will step forward to protect James. After all, James is no longer the person he was a month ago.“As for Mr. Gabriel, we never planned to get rid of him so soon. However, James proposed to do it

Thomas was the one that founded the Sacred Fire Figs.After absorbing and refining it, one’s True Energy could be converted into True Yang Energy, which was the key to the cultivation method on the Moonlit Flowers on Cliffside's Edge. However, he had been too busy to refine it.He nodded and said, “Alright.”James waited in the Emperor’s Mansion for it to arrive.Before sunset, the Sacred Fire Figs had arrived.James looked at the red fruits inside a room in the Emperor’s Mansion and asked, “How do I absorb them, Maxine?”Maxine replied, “Just eat it directly and circulate your energy to absorb the energy within it. Your True Energy will slowly transform afterward. These few fruits are enough to transform your True Energy.”James picked one up and put it in his mouth.The fruit looked ordinary, but it felt like fire bursting within his mouth upon biting it. James endured the heat and swallowed it.He felt a hot surge of energy spreading from his throat throughout his body.Ja

“The Johnstons, Sullivans, and Lees? They have death wishes!” With a grim face, Tobias roared furiously.He stood up angrily but then quickly sat down again.Tobias knew he could not act impulsively.James was overpowering and the strongest among the Cadens’ youngsters. There was a possibility he would surpass Tobias in a few more years. Despite his promising future, Tobias had no confidence in saving James from the three families. If he were to stand up for him now, the Ancien Four would fight to the death.Tobias hurried to the backyard. Tobias stood outside the wooden house and shouted, “Grandpa, it’s me, Tobias. I wish to see you right now.”Creak!The wooden house door opened.An old man that radiated an unearthly aura walked out with his hands behind his back. He looked at Tobias and asked, “You look flustered. Did something happen?”“James was appointed the Emperor, and the succession ceremony will be held today. However, I got the news that the Johnstons, Sullivans, a

Under the watchful eyes of audiences across the country, James’ succession ceremony was conducted.Everyone watched as James walked to the front in his Red Flame robe. At that moment, he was incredibly mesmerizing.He stepped onto the stage and looked at the crowd.There were quite a few people gathered, including the King.The people seated below the stage were influential figures in the governmental factions. The ones standing in the distance were those from the business world.Suddenly, Raelynn came up with a microphone and handed it to James.After she handed the microphone to James, she murmured, “I’d like to see what you’re going to say in front of the whole country after you threw away the script that I carefully prepared for you.”James wore a serious expression. After he took the microphone, he suddenly grinned.The audience in front of the television found his sudden smile hilarious.“This hat is incredibly uncomfortable to wear.” James smiled, took off his hat, an

“Who told you that I practiced the cultivation method on the Four Great Paintings?” James questioned. “Stop talking nonsense!” Hades snorted, and a powerful aura erupted from his body.He took a step forward, and his body turned into an afterimage. His actual body appeared in front of James in a blink of an eye, and he thrust his palm forward with lightning speed.James only caught a glimpse of a figure flashing by, and a palm suddenly appeared in front of him.Their palms collided, and two intense energies crashed into each other.James felt powerful and scorching True Energy sweeping over him. It pushed him several meters back.Hades was also pushed a few steps backward.After testing the waters, James knew that the head of the Johnstons, Hades, was a grandmaster of the sixth rank and was almost reaching the seventh rank. His True Energy was comparable to James' True Energy.“Is that all the head of the Johnstons can do?” James wore a calm and disdainful smile.Hades was sh
