Chapter 652


    “Really?” Cynthia was surprised. Bobby shook his head and said, “How would I know? It’s just a family


    myth. In ancient times, there were rumors of emperors searching the seas to search for immortal


    medicine and even offering sacrifices to the heavens to obtain immortality. The topic of immortality in


    Sol is endless.”


    Speaking of this, Bobby snorted coldly.


    “Why am I even sharing this with you guys?”


    Bobby sealed his lips and said no more.


    Meanwhile, James was deep in thought.


    He contemted whether the Emperor and Bobby were telling the truth.


    The atmosphere grew tense once again.


    Time passed minute by minute.


    More than half a day had passed in the blink of an eye.

    At this moment, Bobby’s phone rang, and he answered the call. “We’ve retrieved the chest.” Bobby did


    not reply. He simply hung up the phone, stood up, and left.


    James stood up and blocked him. “You’ve got what you wanted. Let Thea go. Otherwise, I won’t let you


    leave this ce today.”


    “You piece of trash, do you think you can stop me?”


    Bobby’s face darkened, and a terrifying aura exuded from him. He raised his unharmed hand and


    swung it at James.


    James raised his hand in an attempt to block his attack.


    “You trash, how dare you fight back? Do you want Thea to die?”


    Hearing this, James immediately withdrew his hand.


    James was hit in the chest. He took a few steps back and failed to keep his bnce, falling to the


    ground with a pained expression.


    He struggled to get back on his feet. Bobby walked toward him slowly.


    “What are you doing?”


    Cynthia stood up and blocked Bobby.


    “No matter what, he’s a member of your family. You should use words to settle things, not your fists.”


    Bobby nced at James, who stood up and said coldly, “I’ll spare you today, James. You better live


    vour best life. The Cadens’w enforcers will being for you sooner orter to eliminate the family


    traitors.”


    After saying that, Bobby turned and left. “Let Thea go,” James shouted.


    “Haha…”


    Bobby burst outughing. “That depends on whether you have the ability to save her. You might be


    able to save her if you rush back to Cansington right now. Otherwise, you’ll have to wait to collect her


    corpse if you’rete.” Bobby left with a smile. James clenched his fists tightly, and veins bulged on his


    face. He wore a furious and terrifying expression.


    “Bobby, I’m warning you. I’ll tear you into pieces if she loses even a single strand of hair.” James turned


    around and left.


    Cynthia followed him.


    The Emperor was still sitting in the gazebo when he watched them leave. Then, he poured himself a


    cup of tea and muttered, “It’ll be troublesome to get the chest back now that it’s with the Cadens.


    However, it’s better than leaving it with James.” James had to die.


    His n could not be executed if James was still alive. However, he could not kill James because the


    chest was with him. This was why he schemed the whole thing. He spread the news to the Cadens so


    that they would send someone to retrieve the chest. The Moonlit Flowers on Cliffside’s Edge was with


    the Cadens, and they should be able to unravel the secrets of the painting after retrieving the chest. If


    his n seeded, he would be able to find a way to steal the Moonlit Flowers on Cliffside’s Edge and


    the other paintings from the other families and unravel the thousand-year-old mystery left behind by the


    Prince of Orchid Mountain.


    “Immortality, huh? I’m looking forward to it.” The Emperor took a sip of tea and took out his phone to


    dial a mysterious number. “You can proceed with the n.” “Alright.”


    A hoarse voice sounded through the phone.
