Semua Bab The Almighty Dragon General: Bab 1271 - Bab 1280

James did not want to pay too much attention to the Cadens’ affairs.Although he was part of the Cadens, he had no affection for them.In the entire family, the only person he cared for was Bennett.However, Bennett’s whereabouts were unknown, so it would be useless for James to continue staying in the Cadens’ mansion.All he could do was secretly inquire and investigate.Callan followed James out of the Cadens' compound. Outside the mansion, Callan asked, “James, are you going back to Cansington?”James stopped, turned around, and looked at the wrinkled Callan behind him. Then, he said, “Yeah. Although there are plenty of things for me to tend to in the Capital, many martial art sects and families encountered severe casualties after the Mount Thunder Sect Conference. They’ll stay in hiding to heal and recover, hence things will be peaceful for the time being. I’m preparing to return to Cansington to recover from my injuries and make plans after the new year.”James knew that ma

In the Capital, dozens of people were gathered in the meeting room in the Cadens’ mansion.Maxine sat in the lead. She wore a golden robe, and her long hair was tied up, revealing her facial features. She had pearl and flower accessories in her hair and was wearing light makeup that made her look incredibly charismatic.“Dear family members, the main purpose of gathering everyone here today is to discuss the follow-up matters of the Cadens. Bennett, our Grand Patriarch, has been attacked by our family head, Tobias, and their whereabouts are currently unknown. Next, we have two important things to do. First, find the Grand Patriarch, Bennett, as soon as possible. Second, find the family head, Tobias, to get to the truth of this matter as soon as possible.”Maxine’s voice resounded.Dozens of people were gathered in the meeting room, but no one responded to her.None of these people accepted Maxine as their family head.In their eyes, Maxine was of low status and considered a ser

Maxine had never thought of becoming the family head.Now that she was appointed, she had to start thinking about her way forward.No matter what Lorenzo’s purpose was in making her the family head, she had to do something to strengthen her position.She headed to meet Yaroslav.Meanwhile, James had already boarded a private military plane back to Cansington.On the plane, Thea kept holding on to a black sword.James frowned and asked, “Is this the Malevolent Sword that Grandpa mentioned?”“Yeah.” Thea nodded.James continued, “Grandpa said that this was a wretched sword that would enchant a person’s heart. It would control its wielder.”“No.” Thea shook her head firmly.Thomas said holding the sword would cause one to develop the desire to kill.However, she did not have that desire.Thea looked at James and explained, “Honey, it’s not a wretched sword. Swords aren’t alive, so how can they be wretched? What’s wretched is the human heart. I’m holding the sword, but I don’t

Thea was slightly disappointed.She could not understand James. These people were merely friends. Yet, instead of returning to the Callahans first, he would rather see them before anything else.Although she was upset, she remained silent.A military vehicle drove up to her, and a soldier got out. He saluted and shouted, “Dragon King, please get into the vehicle. I’ll send you back.”“Mhm.” James did not refuse and got into the car.The military vehicle sent James to the villa district where Cynthia’s villa was located.Soon, they appeared at the door of Cynthia’s villa.James rang the doorbell.Soon, the door opened, and several women rushed out the door toward the gate.The iron gate swung open.“James!”“James…”Quincy, Tiara, and Cynthia looked at James with joy.They thought James would not make it back for New Year’s and were worried about his safety.Surprisingly, James returned before New Year’s.“James, quick, come in.” Cynthia invited James into the villa.Jam

Hearing this, Cynthia handed the core back to James. “You should have this back, James. It sounds precious. I can’t afford to break it.”James took it and put it away.“By the way, tomorrow is New Year’s. Where are you planning to celebrate, James?” Quincy changed to the subject and looked at James eagerly.“My house, of course.” Thea cast a glance at Quincy and took James’ hand. She raised her head proudly as if she was announcing that James was her man and that Quincy should not even think about it.James did not want to return to the Callahans because they were power-hungry.“I won’t return to the Callahans’ mansion,” said James.“Why?” Thea was immediately displeased.James said, “Regarding our official status, we’re divorced, so it’s unsuitable for me to return to the Callahans’ mansion. I plan to look for Newton and spend New Year’s with him.”James had plans to look for Newton.The main reason was that he wanted to learn some inside stories from thirty years ago.Newto
