Chapter 1501


    James nodded slightly.


    Yasmine did not linger for long and hurriedly headed to the underground basement in the courtyard to look for Xavi.


    “Grand Patriarch.”


    Upon arriving at the underground basement, she lowered her head.


    “Is something else the matter?” Xavi asked coldly.


    Yasmine said, “Here’s how it is, Grand Patriarch. You ordered me to sell the family’s businesses, but | believed that money was


    worthless to us. So, | contacted James and informed him of my wish to sell the businesses to him. Here’s what | think—we can


    give him our family’s lucrative businesses in exchange for the secret of the four paintings left behind by the Prince of Orchid


    Mountain.”


    Upon hearing this, Xavi’s face lit up.


    The four paintings left behind by the Prince of Orchid Mountain...


    They were passed down a millennium ago. Rumors say that they concealed the secret to immortality.


    However, the Lee family’s painting was stolen by none other than Thomas. Xavi would have made his way to the Cadens already


    if not for the fact that he stood no chance against him. Back then, during the Mount Thunder Conference, not even thebined


    forces of the three families could defeat Bet and Tobias. In the end, James showed up and even killed the Johnstons’ family


    head. Only then did the other three families quiet down.


    “| wish to see him in person.”


    Xavi stood up and left the underground basement.


    In the Lees’ living room...


    Quincy was chit-chatting with Xiomara. Meanwhile, James was conversing with Maxine in whispers.


    Soon, a fifty-year-old-looking man walked in. He was wearing an ancient white robe with a lifelike dragon embroidered onto it.


    “Hahaha... James!”


    Before Xavi even approached them, his voice boomed.


    Then, he walked over to the sofa and took his seat. Looking at James, he praised, “Though you’re young, you managed to cross


    into the eighth rank. In the future, you will definitely reach the ninth rank.”Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org.


    James had seen Xavi before. However, thest time they met, Xavi looked like his life was hanging by a thread. Now, however,


    he was much more youthful, and he looked more energetic and spirited than ever.


    “You tter me.” James smiled.


    Xavi cut to the chase and asked, “I heard from Yasmine that you intend to purchase the Lees’ businesses?”


    “That’s my n.”


    Xavi’s expression turned grim, and he said, “James, my conditions are simple. | need you to return the painting that was stolen


    from us by the Cadens.”


    Upon hearing this, James smiled bitterly, and he said, “I’m afraid I’m incapable of aplishing such a feat. After all, it was my


    grandfather who stole the painting, not me. Besides, | can’t locate his current whereabouts at the moment.”


    Looking at James, Xavi uttered word by word, “In that case, have you seen the Four Ancient Paintings?”


    James shook his head, “No, I’ve only seen the Cadens’ Moonlit Flowers on Cliffside’s Edge.”


    “Then, have you unraveled the secret of the Moonlit Flowers on Cliffside’s Edge? Has your grandfather unraveled the mystery of


    the Four Ancient Paintings?”


    James nodded his head and said,


    “Yes, | have. Rumors say that by

    Xavi listed out his demands.


    James was lost in thought.


    After a while, he said, “Since | don’t
