Chapter 1302


    Finally, James regained his strength. He did not have to stay by Cynthia’s side any longer.


    “Darling, when are we going to the Capital?”


    Thea asked smilingly.


    She did not wish to remain in Cansington because many women there had an intimate rtionship with


    James. She wanted to leave with James to a faraway ce, away from those pesky women.

    “There’s no need to rush things.” James waved slightly and said, “Although I’ve restored my strength,


    I’m still a seventh-rank grandmaster. There are many eighth-rank grandmasters within Sol. Now that


    they have obtained the Spirit Turtle’s core, their strength will reach even greater heights once they


    finish. absorbing it. I’m not confident that I can defeat them.”


    James would have to return to the Capital. After all, there were many things for him to deal with.


    The head of the Tucksons was captured and imprisoned in a dungeon. Back then, James tried making


    a move on the Tucksons to lure out the ones affiliated with them. That way, he couldpletely


    eradicate all of their influence from the Capital. However, the n backfired, and he failed to properly


    manage the situation before it escted out of control.


    Thus, he had no choice but to head over to the Mount Thunder Sect.


    “Congrattions on restoring your strength, James,” Can stood up and congratted him. “Though


    you’re now able to refine the core of the Spirit Turtle, you’re prevented from doing so at the moment.


    Here’s what I propose. Try restoring my strength for now, and I’ll return to the Capital first. Meanwhile,


    you’ll stay behind and refine the Spirit Turtle’s core.”


    James nced at Can. Though he had promised Can he would help him regain his strength, he


    was unsure if it would work. Besides, Can was the Supreme Leader of the Gu Sect. Although they


    got along well, their friendship was based on the premise that Can’s True Energy was dispersed. If


    he helped him heal his injuries, he had no idea what Can would do.


    Wearing a grim expression, Can said, “I know you don’t trust me. I understand if you have some


    reservations about me.”


    James said, “I’ll try my best.”


    “Thank you for believing in me.”


    “Let’s head upstairs.”


    James turned to leave, and Can followed close behind.


    Meanwhile, Thea frowned. She could not bring herself to trust Can.


    Can was too renowned a figure. A hundred years ago, he was an eighth-rank grandmaster. He would


    be the most powerful grandmaster in the world if he restored his strength.


    If he turned against James, things would turn troublesome quickly. However, since James trusted him,


    Thea had no choice but to obey.


    “What are you thinking about, Thea? You seem lost in thought,” Quincy nced at Thea and asked.


    Thea shook her head slightly and took a seat. “It’s nothing.”


    After thinking for a moment, she asked, “Do you guys really trust Can?”


    “Yes,” they all said in unison.


    They had been together with Can for the past two weeks. They now epted him as their master.


    Can was an amiable old man who showered them with care and concern. He even taught them


    everything he knew about martial arts.


    Meanwhile, Can told them about many things-the chaos and disorder in Sol long ago, the battle


    against the Gu Sect, and the conflict which arose due to different concepts and ideas.


    Thea fell silent when she heard this.


    Holding the Malevolent Sword in her hand, she was lost in thought.


    Upstairs, in James’ room…


    Can was sitting in a lotus position on the bed,


    James stood by the side, saying, “Can, the dispersion of your True Energy caused your cells and


    your appearance to age. On that day, I managed to prevent your True Energy frompletely


    dispersing and saved your life.”


    “Mhm.” Can nodded. “Indeed.”
