Chapter 1709


    “How wise of you, Father.”


    “Go. You’re already exposed. Now that the Solean martial artists have noticed you and found this


    ce, we shouldn’t remain here for long. We will quickly leave this castle, while you will remain here


    and guard the ce. I want you to stay calm no matter what happens. If the ninth-rank martial artists


    from Sole knocking, simply feign ignorance. In any case, you must not allow them to make a move


    against us.”


    “Understood, I will keep your words to heart.”


    “Go.”


    Kaiden waved slightly.


    Sergio did not linger for long and hurriedly left.


    At the same time, James was resting in a room. After consuming the elixir Thomas gave him, his True


    Energy gradually recovered. However, since all of his True Energy was depleted, he needed at least a


    few days topletely regain his strength.


    Knock! Knock! Knock!


    A knock came on the door.


    James stood up and answered the door.


    Standing by the door, the First Blood Emperor smiled. “James, the Grand Patriarch of the Blood Race


    is inviting you to the apse.”


    “Mhm.” James nodded and returned to his room. Holding the Primordial Dragon de in hand, he


    followed close behind the First Blood Emperor.


    Before they could leave, Sky suddenly appeared out of nowhere. “Let me tag along.”


    The First Blood Emperor squinted his eyes and said, “Only James is invited.”


    James said with a smile, “Don’t worry, Sky, I’ll hold up my end of the bargain. Once I obtain the


    dragon’s. blood, I promise we will each have half. I will also tell you about the dragon’s whereabouts.”


    However, Sky distrusted James. After all, he had been fooled once.


    “But can I trust you, James?” He red at James.


    James said, “Well, it’s not like you have a choice now.


    The First Blood Emperor said coldly, “Out of the way.”


    Sky knew he was deep within the Blood Race’s territory, so he did not dare disobey him.


    He red at the First Blood Emperor and muttered silently under his breath, “One day, I will surely get


    rid of you.”


    Then, he looked at James and threatened him, “James, I hope you keep your promise. Otherwise,


    don’t me me for what happens next.”


    James looked at Sky. As long as this man was still alive, he would continue to pose a threat to him. He


    nned to annihte him the moment he seized an opportunity.


    Though a malicious thought surfaced in his mind, he still wore a bright smile, saying, “Don’t worry, I’ll


    keep my promise.”


    After he said that, he left alongside the First Blood Emperor.


    Under the First Blood Emperor’s guidance, James arrived at the apse of the castle.


    In a room in the apse..


    Hand was sitting in a lotus position on the floor.


    The First Blood Emperor walked in with James and greeted him respectfully, “Grand Patriarch, I’ve


    brought him.”


    It was the first time the First Blood Emperor came here.


    Hand waved slightly and said, “You’re dismissed.”


    “Understood.”

    The First Blood Emperor turned to leave.


    Hand lifted his head to look at James and pointed at an empty spot on the floor, saying. “Make


    yourself at home and have a seat.”


    James sat in a lotus position opposite Hand.


    Hand looked at James and asked, “Young man, who is your master?”


    “I don’t have one. He’s already dead,” James said.


    He never had a master. The only teacher he had was Spencer Blithe who had already passed on.


    “How impressive… You manage to possess such strength at such a young age despite not having a


    master to guide you.”
