Chapter 1322

Callan was the first to arrive in the Capital.

After James healed his injuries with the Crucifier, he left Cansington and arrived in the Capital with the

sole objective of seizing control of the Gu Sect in mind.

“Where are you, James?” Callan asked.

“I’m already in the Capital,” James replied…

“I’m now in closed–door meditation. I’ll send you my address. We’ll talk about it later.”

“Sure.”

James hung up the phone. Soon, he received Callan’s message.

Callan did not live in the city area. Instead, he was residing in a villa in the suburbs. It was a secluded

area full of villas and courtyards for the pleasure of the rich.

Soon, James arrived and rang the doorbell.

The door opened. A forty–year–old–looking man with a crew cut and wearing white clothing answered

the door.

It was Callan. He had cut his hair short. Now, he was more energetic–looking.

“You’ve arrived, James.”

Callan welcomed James in.

“Mhm.”

James walked in and sat on the sofa. Immediately, a beautiful maid walked over to him and asked

gently, “Sir, would you like coffee or tea?”

James said, “Water.” Then, looking at Callan who sat opposite him, he asked, “What’s the situation

over here?”

With a dejected look, Callan said, “After arriving in the Capital, I tried contacting my confidants in

secret. However, all of them have been bribed by Lucjan. Now that I’m no longer part of the Gu Sect,

my words have no power or authority.”

He sighed deeply.

“I didn’t expect Lucjan to have completely eroded my control over the Gu Sect while I was in closed–

door meditation.”

Seeing that Callan’s appearance had restored to his youthful looks, James asked, “Have you restored

your strength?”

“Mhm.” Callan nodded and said, “I have restored eighty percent of it. I’m currently at the peak of the

eighth rank.”

“What do you plan to do next?” James asked.

Callan’s face dárkened. “Exterminate the traitors.”

Hearing this, James breathed a sigh of relief. With Callan’s help, things would progress much more

smoothly. In the battle against the Gu Sect, he now had a chance at coming out on top.

“What about you?” Callan asked, “Have you refined the core? What’s your current strength? What do

you plan to do next?”

James smiled, “Next, I plan to do something about the complex web of relationships between powerful

figures and factions in the Capital. I’ll arrest all who violated the law so that Sol is purified of its filth.”

James leaned on the sofa wearing a look of anticipation on his face.

“I really hope that the day would come. I’m tired, you see. I really want to live an uneventful life of

seclusion and peace.”

“Mhm.” Callan nodded.

Though James‘ objectives were ordinary, it would be tough to execute them.

He was the Supreme Leader of the Gu Sect. Although he was in closed–door meditation, he knew

about the intricated web of relationships inside the Capital.

When Sol was founded a century ago, many established themselves here. After a century of

development, an intricate web of relationships was born.

“I’ll help you to the best of my abilities.” Callan said, “I hope I can see Sol prosper and develop in my

lifetime. By then, let’s hope we can find a secluded spot to live in and discuss martial art together.”

“Let’s hope we can both accomplish our mission.”
