Chapter 1135


    Outside the Emperor''s Mansion…


    A military vehicle was approaching.


    James got out of the vehicle, and the guards at the entrance saluted simultaneously. He gave them a


    small wave before walking straight into the mansion.


    Maxine and Thea were both sitting in the courtyard.


    Their rtionship appeared to have improved in the past few days. They were chatting without being


    cold to each other.


    They were very concerned today. They were concerned that things would spiral out of control on


    James'' side. Fortunately, there were no mishaps.


    “James.”


    “Honey.”


    When James approached, they both stood up at the same time.


    James walked over and sat down on a chair in the gazebo. “Thea, have youpleted all of the


    preparations for Cansington?” he inquired.


    “Yes.” Thea nodded and said, “I''ve already given orders for the God-King Pce''s elites to provide


    their protection covertly.”


    “Good.” James let out a sigh of relief.


    “What are you nning to do next?” asked Maxine.


    "First, put on a show with Mr. Gabriel. We’ll need toe up with aprehensive n. We can''t raise


    the suspicions of the Gu Sect members,” said James.


    James had agreed with Yarov. It did not matter to him whether Yarov lived or died. What was


    important to him was that he would get to know the people of Gu Sect as he wanted to take advantage


    of the opportunity and strike them all at once.


    The three of them gathered and starteding up with a detailed n.


    Meanwhile…


    In Lily City, the Capital. At the foot of a mountain…


    There was a detached vi in this area.


    In the courtyard outside the mansion, a man who appeared to be in his sixties was practicing Tai Chi.


    His movements alternated between swift and gentle, and his imposing bearing shifted with the rise and


    fall of his hands.


    “Sir, something has happened in the Capital.”


    A man was quickly approaching. He was about forty years old and dressed in a suit and tie.


    The elder who was practicing Tai Chi stopped. Two beautiful youngdies behind him quickly walked


    over, carrying towels.


    The old man took them and wiped his hands and forehead. He then asked calmly, looking at the


    middle-aged man standing in front of him, “Is there a problem?”


    “James has taken over as the Emperor. Heunched an attack on the Tuckson family today. The entire


    Red me Army was on the move and created quite amotion. Currently, the Tucksons have all


    been arrested. James is being far too brash. The Tuckson family has a long history in the Capital and


    they have aplicatedwork of connections. Now that he has made a move against them, he''s


    going to take on quite a few families and prominent figures in the Capital.”


    Hearing this, the old man frowned slightly and inquired, “What’s happening on Yarov''s side?”


    “He has yet to make a move,” said the middle-aged man, “I thought that Yarov was the target of the


    King''s n to have James ascend to the throne, but James chose to attack the Tuckson family directly


    instead of making a move against Yarov. Sir, now that James has gone straight past Yarov to


    target the Tucksons, he’d definitely attack the people connected to the Tuckson family next. Then, the


    forces we have nurtured for so long will undoubtedly be uprooted by James.”


    The elder remained calm and collected. “What’s the situation on the Supreme Leader''s end?” he


    asked.


    “The Supreme Leader is in closed-door meditation. Yarov tried to meet with him but was unable to


    do so. Currently, Thomas Caden is in charge,” said the man.


    “Thomas?”


    Lucjan Owens did not trust Thomas, but the Supreme Leader wanted to coborate with him. There


    was nothing he could do about that.


    “We can’t trust Thomas, Mr. Owen. Thomas is James’ grandfather. He must be paving the way for


    James. Thomas will undoubtedly turn against us once James seeds. He’s just trying to exacerbate


    our internal conflict.”


    Lucjan nodded his head gently and said, “Yes. I’ve never trusted Thomas. The Supreme Leader seems


    to have lost interest in all of this, though. Now he just wants to reach the highest rank. Still, we can''tOriginal content from N?velDrama.Org.


    just sit back and ept our fate…”


    He gave it a thought andmanded, “Frederick, hurry to the Capital. Capture Quincy, Tiara, and the


    entire Cahan family. Distract James so that he’s unable to make a move against the Capital. We


    can’t let this brat destroy thework of connections we have established over the years.”


    Lucjan Owens. He was a member of the Owen family from Gu Sect''s three major families. Currently, he


    was the Deputy Leader of the Gu Sect.


    Even though he did not reside in the Capital during these years, he was well aware of the situation


    there.


    The Supreme Leader was currently meditating in seclusion, but something was going to happen in the


    Capital. He could not just sit around any longer.


    “Yes, Mr. Owen. Where should we bring them?”


    Lucjan pondered for a while and said, “The Mount Thunder Conference is approaching. Bring them to


    Mt. Thunder. Until the Mount Thunder Conference is over and things have settled down.”
