Chapter 1346

Maxine knew that Thea would surely take action.

Thus, Maxine wanted to know more about what she had in mind so she could provide any assistance if

Thea needed it.

“Thea, you don’t have to be so hostile toward me. I’m just here to see if there’s any way I can help

you,” said Maxine.

In James’ presence, Thea treated her with grace and generosity.

However, when they were alone, Thea was prickly and cagey towards Maxine. It was as if she had

some deep-seated grudge towards her.

Thea looked at Maxine and said, “We’ll talk inside.”

She turned around and went back inside the room.

Maxine followed after her.

Inside the room, Maxine asked, “You’re carrying the Malevolent Sword, so I’m assuming you must be

planning quite the journey. What are you planning to do?”

Thea replied in a straightforward manner, “The ancient martial world is in disarray. James is already

biting off more than he can chew. He cannot afford to spend time on unnecessary distractions.

Therefore, I plan to help him restructure the ancient martial world and make them submit to the

Celestial Sect. I plan to

head to Mount Thunder Sect and force them to surrender to me.”

Maxine’s jaw dropped when she heard Thea speak so casually about her plans.

“Are you planning to go on a killing spree?”

Thea looked at her and said, “I’m aware of the principles, so I promise won’t kill innocent people. I’ll

only use the Celestial Sect to put some pressure on Mount Thunder Sect. I’m not planning to massacre

them.”

If Thea decided to go all-out and use force against Mount Thunder Sect, there was a low chance that

anyone could stop her.

In fact, Mount Thunder Sect would not be the only one who would be unable to oppose Thea. As it

stands, there is hardly anyone in the entirety of Sol who can probably go toe-to-toe with Thea.

“Is there anything I can do to help?”

“You’re incapable of helping with anything, so just continue on with whatever you were doing before,

and don’t worry about the rest.”

Thea did not need Maxine’s assistance. As long as Maxine stayed out of trouble and did whatever

James required of her, Thea was not bothered in the least about what she did.

“Fine, then. Pretend I never visited.”

Maxine got up and attempted to leave.

“Also, you had better keep your mouth shut about what you heard… Or else…”

Before Maxine could leave the room, Thea suddenly threatened her.

Maxine stopped in her tracks for a few seconds. Then, she continued walking away and left without

looking back.

After Maxine left, Thea promptly left to get started on her plans as well.

Meanwhile, James arrived at the military region.

Last night, Henry notified the army stationed in Southern Plains, and the general there selected

hundreds of elite soldiers from the Black Dragon Army. They rushed to the Capital that very night.

Henry also selected a few elite soldiers from the Red Flame Army.

James held the itinerary for the military exchange in Durandal in his hands and read through it.

The entire military exchange between the two countries would last for a week.

Each day they were there had different things planned out.

James casually skimmed over it and tossed it on the table. His real reason for going to Durandal was to

investigate Delilah’s whereabouts. As such, he could not be bothered about the military exchange that

had been planned.

Knock! Knock! Knock!

There was a knock on the door.

James answered, “Come in.”

The door opened, and Henry entered the room wearing a Red Flame robe with three shining stars on

his shoulder.

“Emperor.”

Henry walked over, saluted, and reported, “100 Black Dragon Army soldiers and 100 Red Flame Army

soldiers are ready to depart. When shall we set off?”

“Right now.”

James did not want to waste another second. He wanted to head to Durandal and settle the issue as

soon as possible so that he could return quickly.

“Understood.”

Henry nodded and said, “I’ll relay the order immediately.”

Then, he turned and left the room.

He quickly ordered the Black Dragon Army and Red Flame Army soldiers to board the plane.

James also left his office.

Today, he was not dressed in casual clothes but wore his Black Dragon robe with ten stars on his

shoulders.

He was the only commander to ever exist in Sol’s history that held a military rank of ten stars. His

badges were the country’s affirmation of his military exploits.

The 200 people boarded the plane and immediately took off.

James finally embarked on his ten-hour flight to Durandal.
