Chapter 1134
James smiled and said, “I''ve known about Mr. Lee for quite some time, and I finally got to meet him
today.”
The King smiled and asked, “What can I do for you this time?”
“It''s nothing major. It''s just that I''ve attacked the Tuckson family this time, and there will undoubtedly be
arge number of people involved. Besides that, mercenaries appeared in the Capital and were even
using military weapons. There’s something fishy about that. I''m afraid there will be a major upheaval in
the military region, so I specifically stopped by to give prior notice,” said James.
The King nodded and said, “Well, that''s to be expected. Go ahead. Abide by the rules regardless of
who is involved. It''s time for a clean-up and for a significant recement of personnel. In fact, I''ve been
wanting to take action for a while now, but there haven''t been any opportunities. In addition, I was also
concerned that if I took action against these people, the Capital would descend into chaos.”
Mr. Lee did not say anything. He just looked at James. He was also contemting and specting.
‘What kind of a person is James, exactly?’
Was he truly a hero for his nation and his people, or was he just a man with ambition?
The King continued, “Do what you have to and I’ll take care of the rest. I''ll look for suitable candidates
as soon as possible to fill some of the vacant positions so that there won’t be a mess.”
James felt relieved after hearing the King''s words. He stood up, looked at Mr. Lee, and said, “Mr. Lee,
I’ll take my leave now.”
“Hmm.” Mr. Lee then nodded gently.

James did not linger and quickly left.
After he left, the King then looked at Mr. Lee and asked, “What are you thinking about, Mr. Lee?”
Mr. Lee responded, “I was wondering what James was thinking about. Sometimes I can''t see right
through him. Everything he does is for the nation and its people. He puts on an admirable front of
devotion to righteousness and ack of fear. However, you can’t judge a book by its cover. I’m unable
to infer what he’s really thinking.”
“Aren’t we going to ascend him to the throne?” asked the King. “If we’re having doubts about him now,
what will happenter?”
Mr. Lee gave a small wave of his hand and said, “He’ll have no trouble taking the throne. It''s just that
someone in a high-ranking position must consider the big picture. James was too rash in light of the
incident today. He did not take the repercussions into ount. He seems to act independently and
make decisions without consulting anyone else.”
The King nodded gently and said, “You’re right. Fortunately, it was sessful. If there had been a slip-
up, the upheaval it would have caused would have been enormous. Even though he hadplete
faith, it was still a bit of a gamble. As a high-ranking official, he can’t make such a choice. He can’t
gamble with his decisions.”
“Yes. It appears that we’ll need to train someone else. If James is really interested in this position, he’ll
find a way to get rid of the newly revealed candidate and solidify his position in Sol. If he has no
interest, then he''ll work with the neer and sort everything out.” Mr. Lee said nonchntly.
“James currently controls the military. It''s not difficult for him to ascend to the throne if he wants to. If
the ck Dragon Army joins forces with the Red me Army to surround the Capital, he’ll be able to
ascend to the throne,” said the King.
“That’s a bad n,” said Mr. Lee. “That’s just him being ambitious. He’ll only do something like that if
he loses the election. Let’s first wait and see. James did not make a move against Yarov this time,
but now the Tucksons have been met with disaster. Among those involved with the Tuckson family,
there must be someone from Gu Sect. We’ll see what Gu Sect does next.”
Mr. Lee stood up as he said that. “I’ll be going back, then.”
Leaning back on the couch, the King lost himself in thought.
Mr. Lee had the idea of putting James on the throne very early on. He, however, only wanted James to
remove the dissidents. James would be useless to him once he got rid of them. He wanted to get rid of
ancient martial artists, but he was an ancient martial artist himself. Moreover, behind him was also a
group of ancient martial artists.
The King watched the back of Mr. Lee as he left, and his brows began to furrow.
James, on the other hand, was also ruminating and contemting after he left Peace Mansion. He was
thinking about Mr. Lee’s identity and his background.
However, he did not know anything about Mr. Lee at the moment, and could not make any educated
guesses yet. He took a deep breath and put his thoughts aside. Then he took out his phone and
contacted Madelyn Gabriel.
Soon the phone was connected and Madelyn''s voice rang out, “Emperor, I’ve spoken to you about the
incident today. I must say, you have a lot of guts. The Tucksons have been well-established in the
Capital for a century and they’re connected in an intricate web of rtionships. When you make a
move against the Tucksons, many people and families in the Capital will get involved.”
“I don''t need instructions from you on how to do things. I just want a list of the Gu Sect members''
names.”
James was about to make his move, but first, he needed to know how many of the individuals
connected to the Tuckson family were actually members of Gu Sect.
“The list of the names is ready, so I’ll send it to you. Please remember to check it. Also, before you take
any action, you have to kill Mr. Gabriel first. Otherwise, when you act, you’ll be affecting the interests of
many people, and it’s impossible for Mr. Gabriel to not intervene. Now all he wants to do is fake his
death, hide, and stop caring about these things.”
“Alright. I''ll work out a detailed n as soon as possible.”
After James ended the call, he immediately rushed to the Emperor''s Mansion. He needed to meet with
Maxine to discuss and devise aprehensive n.
