Chapter 1760


    Thea had a shback to when she first reencountered James.


    James brought her to the House of Royals and treated her wounds. She remembered how he


    meticulously took care of her.


    “Wedding? Will that day evere?”


    Thea’s face filled with sadness.


    Sky said James was dead.


    She knew James was likely dead but kept deceiving herself.


    Henry consoled her, “Thea, that day will surelye. I believe James isn’t dead yet. He’s surely alive.”

    Thea wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes and took a deep breath topose her thoughts.


    Then, she replied, “Please help me settle the matter on the high-tech weapons as soon as possible. I’ll


    be heading out next Monday.”


    “Mhm. I’ll do my best.”


    After making the request to Henry, Thea left.


    Meanwhile, Henry quickly left Cansington and headed back to the Capital.


    One dayter…


    Tyrus reunited with the Prince of Orchid Mountain in the underground pce deep within the Southern


    in’s forest.


    “Father, many major events have urred recently. Rumors are saying that James is dead.”

    “What?” Langston stared at Tyrus.


    “He’s dead?”


    “Yeah.”


    Tyrus exined, “It was reported by Sky. He headed overseas with James, but only Sky returned from


    the journey. Sky said there was a person who lived for more than one thousand three hundred years on


    an overseas ind. This person was a ninth-ranked grandmaster, and he was incredibly powerful.


    James somehow antagonized him and was killed as a result.”


    Langston calmed himself down and asked, “Anything else?”


    Tyrus continued. “The other news is that Thea has absorbed the phoenix’s blood and has be


    significantly stronger. Although she hasn’t reached the ninth rank yet, in her maddened state, her


    strength can surpass the Skyward Stairway’s Ninth Stair and enter the pre-ninth rank. She has also


    be the Great Grandmaster of the whole martialmunity.


    “There’s also one more thing. That is, Thea will be leading martial artists from all over the world to y


    the dragon next Monday.”


    Hearing this, Langston stood up abruptly and started stretching his limbs.


    “I never expected a ninth-ranked grandmaster to be hidden overseas. Things are bing more


    interesting. It seems there will be many immortals in Sol after the dragon is in. It won’t be long


    before more ninth-ranked grandmasters appear. It’s time I head outside and make an appearance.” 1


    “Father, are you going to leave the mountain?” Tyrus said excitedly.


    “Mhm.”


    Langster nodded gently and said, “I’ve lived in seclusion here for so many years, and it’s getting a little


    lonely. It’s time I head outside to meet the Omniscient Deity and the Blood Race’s immortal.”


    “Huff!”


    Tyrus took a deep breath.


    The world was bound to be turned upside down after his father left the mountain.


    Back when his father was a prince, he failed to win the fight for power. Thus, he embarked on a martial


    art journey.


    Although thousands of years had passed, his father’s dream of bing the ruler had never changed.


    After his father had gathered powerful martial artists from across the globe and was prepared to


    overthrow the king of the past, he discovered the Omniscient Deity’s existence.


    So, he feigned his death. Over the years, he had stayed in seclusion within the mountain and rarely


    walked outside.


    The outside world was about to face a huge storm now that his father was preparing to leave the


    mountain.


    “Father, what’s the first thing you n to do after leaving this ce?” asked Tyrus.


    Langston smiled and said, “Naturally, I’m going to the ind to watch the martial artists of this


    generation y the dragon.”


    “Do you n to secretly help them?”


    “Of course not. The dragon’s blood is a rare treasure, but the Dragon’s Essence is even more valuable


    than that. If I can obtain the Dragon Essence, my strength will climb to even greater heights.”


    “Then, I shall congratte you in advance.”


    Langston did not respond anymore. With his hands behind his back, he left the dark and damp


    underground pce.


    It was Monday in the blink of an eye.


    These few days, Henry had been working very hard.


    He met up with the old King and gained his support to convince the new King and some bigwigs of the


    military department. Ultimately, he was able to obtain some lethal high-tech weapons.
