Chapter 1413
The Almighty Dragon General
Meanwhile, Thea seized the opportunity and chased after Lucjan. James was no match for Lucjan after
being poisoned.
However, the Blood Emperor stopped Thea in her tracks once more.
âDamn it!â
She cursed.
Then, she performed another attack. This time, the Blood Emperor did not dodge. Instead, he deflected
Theaâs attack. His martial art was rather intriguing. Although Thea had concentrated True Energy, she
could not deal any damage to him.
The battle raged on in the sky.

James sat in a lotus position on a rock and inspected his condition. He realized that there was a Gu
inside his blood. Upon catalyzing True Energy, the Gu would begin tearing away at his flesh, which
caused him excruciating pain.
At that moment, Lucjan appeared before James.
He looked at James, whose face was pale, and a grin crept up on his face. âJames, I didnât want to
finish you off that early. However, you appeared at Mount Olympus and made an enemy of me. I have
no choice
His face darkened. âBut to kill you.â
Then, he lifted the epee in his hand and slashed at James.
Jamesâ face darkened, and he swiftly catalyzed Tue Energy. Withstanding the excruciating pain inside
his body, he managed to dodge in time.
The rock he was on a moment ago shattered into a million pieces.
James appeared a hundred meters away. However, unable to withstand the searing pain, he collapsed
to the ground and groaned in pain.
Though he practiced the art of medicine, he fell for Lucjanâs tricks regardless. He could no nothing
about the Gu.
âNot bad⦠You have great durability. To think that you could endure the pain,â Lucjan said.
Holding the epee in his hand, he walked toward James. Lucjan looked at James who was writhing in
agony on the ground and sighed. âI really didnât want to kill you, James. You are a talent who has
immense potential. However, since youâre determined to go against me, I can only get rid of you. What
a shame that you wonât be able to witness my future glory.
âFarewellâ¦â
At that moment, a figure charged toward him.
It was Thea, who had broken free of the Blood Emperor.
Before she even arrived, a terrifying Murderous Energy whirled toward Lucjan like a storm. Sensing the
impending threat, he swiftly dodged the attack. As he dodged, the area he was in exploded. The
ground shook, and the earth rumbled.
Thea charged toward James at great speed and grabbed him. Then, she swiftly left the area. Though
she wanted to use this opportunity and kill Lucjan, the Blood Emperor had arrived. So, she could only
give up on her objective. Or else, James could be plunged into danger.
Theaâs speed was extraordinary. Soon, she disappeared into the mountain ranges of Mount Olympus.
After she left, the Blood Emperor appeared before Lucjan.
âWhat the hell?â Lucjanâs face darkened, and he questioned him, âCanât you even stop a single
person?â
The Blood Emperor shrugged and said, âThe Sect Leader of the Celestial Sect is really powerful. She
possesses concentrated True Energy. Besides, her speed is not beneath mine. Thereâs no way I could
stop her.â
Lucjanâs expression turned grim, and he said, âIf we let him escape, heâll be a menace in the future.â
âThereâs much to do at the moment. We have to refine those we abducted today into puppets. That
way, our strength will reach even greater heights. By then, thereâs no need to be afraid of the Celestial
Sect,â said the Blood Emperor.
âI guess I have no choice, then.â
Since James was saved by the Sect Leader of the Celestial Sect, there was nothing much Lucjan could
do.
After saving James, Thea brought him to a safe spot and placed him gently on the ground, saying, âYou
wonât suffer pain if you donât use True Energy. You should leave first. I will return and exterminate
Lucjan and the Blood Emperor.â
Thea left James behind and turned to leave.
