Each faction tried to guess the other’s thoughts.The Gu Sect decided not to take action.Lance, the leader of Orient Commerce, also did not take action.James’ journey with Graydon to the courthouse went very smoothly.Graydon was pushed out of the car.Seeing the courthouse gates, he slightly panicked and hurriedly shouted, “What’re you doing, James? What’re you doing?!”Walking ahead of the troops, James stopped and walked toward Graydon. He said with a faint smile, “What else can I bring you to the courthouse for? The courthouse is used to trial influential figures. You should be proud to be sentenced in the courthouse.”“Who do you think you are to trial me? Let go of me! I want to make a phone call! Give me a phone. I need to make a call!”Graydon panicked.He knew if he did not call for help, it would be too late if he were brought into the courthouse and convicted. “You want to make a phone call? Who can you call to save you now?”James smiled faintly and ordered, “

“Eight years ago, you had a lover that got pregnant. She planned to give birth to the child, but you secretly got some people to abort the baby. Here’s the information on your lover’s treatment records in the hospital. We also have a DNA report of the unborn child.“Five years ago, you secretly took down a consortium and made a ten billion-dollar profit. Here’s the relevant evidence.”…Francesco looked at the presented evidence and read them out one by one.Hearing this, Graydon’s face paled. He roared, “Impossible! This is impossible! I’m being framed! I didn’t do this! I didn’t do any of it! I want to see Lance! I want to see the King!“You’re not qualified to trial me, James!“I’m a three-star general, James! You need an approved document from the King to arrest and put me on trial! Where’s the document? Without a document, you have no right to convict me!”Graydon panicked and kept shouting.James got up, walked toward Francesco, and picked up the large stack of documents.

Lance said indifferently, “That’s your problem. Go to the courthouse as soon as possible. I need to know what’s happening in there and what James is trying to accomplish.”Lance contemplated for a long time and decided not to get rid of James just yet.There would be no one to keep the Gu Sect in check and maintain a balance if James was gone.Lucjan was not a pushover.Lance was not confident in an absolute victory against Lucjan.Therefore, he could only use James to suppress Lucjan.Who James targeted was not important.He could easily promote another person in seconds. Thus, James’ actions were not of concern.“Understood. I’ll get going right now.”Tobias did not say anything more. He turned around and left, heading to the courthouse with the Phantom Army.“We’ve new intel that the Phantom Army has been dispatched.”“The commander, Tobias, is leading members of the Phantom Army to the courthouse.”The news spread like wildfire as soon as the Phantom Army was dispatched

Following Henry’s order, the soldiers surrounding the courthouse immediately evacuated. Henry also returned to the military region.James, Tobias, and several members of the Phantom Army were left in the courthouse.Inside an office room of the courthouse, James and Tobias sat opposite each other.The two looked at each other, and the atmosphere was slightly tense.“What are you planning to do next, James?”Tobias spoke first and broke the silence.James fell into thought.His next step was to promote a new chief justice to take complete control over the courthouse and prepare for the subsequent trials of other prominent figures.He would need the approval of several parties if he wanted his candidate to take office.It would not be effective if only the King agreed to it.He looked around before setting his gaze on Tobias. After a while, he said, “Next, I’d like to take control of the courthouse. I need a new chief justice to take over. Go back and tell Lance that if he wa

“This old man has been controlling everything from behind the scenes for a hundred years. I’ve been dissatisfied with him for a long time.” Sky looked at Lance's lifeless body on the ground.“I’ve already helped you kill him. Where’s the thing you promised?”“Don’t worry. I’ll definitely give you what belongs to you.” Sky cast a glance at Tobias.“That won’t do. You promised to give it to me immediately after killing him. Are you going to go back on your word?”With a hostile expression, Tobias drew his sword and pointed it at Sky. He said coldly, “Don’t force me to attack you.”Sky said calmly, “Come with me.”Tobias put away his sword and followed Sky.Sky led Tobias to an underground basement in the backyard.There was a mechanism in the secret underground basement. Sky unlocked it and took out a box.He opened up the box, and there was a lump of meat.It was the size of a fist and was stained with blood that had already dried up.Seeing the core, Tobias was ecstatic.Sk
