Chapter 1486


    Tobias’ current strength was within James’ expectations.


    Back then, he was already a seventh-ranked grandmaster.


    After ambushing Bet and snatching the Spirit Turtle’s core, he disappeared for over two months.


    Since he appeared now, he must have refined the core and already stepped into the eighth rank. As for the Skyward Stairway he


    had ascended, James could not be sure.


    James never expected Tobias to take refuge in Orient Commerce.


    He used to be the mighty and superior family head of the Cadens.


    Yet, he served someone else now.? 2024 N?v/el/Dram/a.Org.


    James looked at Tobias, who appeared at the courthouse gate with members of the Phantom Army. He walked over and said


    coldly, “It’s you, Tobias. | was wondering who had shown up. Do you finally dare to expose yourself again? Aren’t you afraid of


    Bet looking to take revenge against you?


    Tobias smiled and replied, “You must be joking, Emperor. Why would Grandpa need to take revenge against me?”


    “You can drop the act. The Cadens know you ambushed Bet and injured him to obtain the Spirit Turtle’s core. What''s wrong?


    You don''t dare to return to the Cadens now?”


    James did not give Tobias any face.


    Those that betrayed their own would face the wrath of everyone.


    Tobias was not infuriated by him. Instead, he smiled brightly and said, “What do you mean | don’t dare to return to the Cadens? |


    simply want to give the younger generation a chance.”


    Tobias was not worried since Bet had not shown up after such a long time.


    Although he never saw the corpse, he concluded that Bet must have been dead.


    Otherwise, he would not have stayed hidden for so long.


    Moreover, Tobias was now part of Orient Commerce and themander of the Phantom Army.


    “What is it you’re here for? Did you bring an army to stop me?” James said coldly.


    “Why would | stop you? We''re family, and I’m here to help you.”


    “Help me?” James was taken aback.


    ording to his predictions, Tobias would show up with people to stop him.


    Otherwise, it would be to inquire about the situation.


    However, he was saying that he showed up to help.


    James frowned and asked, “What exactly are you trying to do?”


    Tobias said earnestly, “The Phantom Army was established to maintain the peace in the Capital. | learned that you arrested


    General Zabelst night. In fact, our Phantom Army already had eyes on him. Thus, our army would deal with him even if you


    didn’t take action. Moreover...”


    He paused and continued, “I have a list of people with problems. Let''s work together to eliminate these threats for the country


    and our people.”


    James was unable to react after hearing Tobias’ words.


    The Phantom Army wanted to help him?


    The person behind the Phantom Army was Orient Commerce''s leader, Lance.


    Lance had been scheming to create an empire of his own since a hundred years ago.


    What was he trying to aplish now?


    After thinking for a while, James looked at Tobias doubtfully and asked, “The list in your hand consists of people from the Gu


    Sect, right? Lance wants to borrow my hands to eliminate these people from the Gu Sect so that Lucjan will resent me and fight


    me while Lance benefits from it all, right?”


    Tobias shrugged and answered, “I don’t know about that. Anyway, I’m here to help you. Let me know who you''d like to arrest,


    and I''ll help you.”


    After speaking, he ordered the army behind him.


    “Heed my order! Take over the Red me Army’s post and surround the courthouse.”


    After giving the order, Tobias looked


    at James and said with a smile


    “James, the R eee

    Tobias walked over and wrapped his


    arm around James’ shoulder, saying,


    “I''m really here to-hele-yiu. I ero

    prominent figures. With my help,


    you''ll get twice the results with half

    His arms were still around James’ shoulder.


    Those who did not know them would think they had a good rtionship.


    “Emperor, this...”


    Henry looked at the Phantom Army members about to take over the Red me Army’s duty with a troubled expression.


    James fell into thought.


    Now that Graydon was dead, his first blow had been dealt.


    All that needed to be done now was to elect a new chief justice of the courthouse as soon as possible.


    Since the Red me Army had nothing else to do, it would not hurt to allow Tobias to stay.


    “Dismiss the soldiers and ask them to get some rest.”
