Chapter 178
The Almighty Dragon General
âWhatâs going on? Wasnât everything fine just now?â âToday is my and girlfriendâs shared birthday. We
were planning to get our marriage certificate today. What happened?â Many people complained as they
left the Department of Civil Affairs.
Meanwhile, James was ecstatic.
It was a feeling happier than winning a battle. He walked to the roadside and got into Henryâs car. âLetâs
go, Henry.â âWhere are you going next, James? The House of Royals or the clinic?â James yawned.
âTo the clinic. I need to take a nap.â He had drank until very late the previous night and was still a little
drowsy.
âAlright.â
Henry drove to Common Clinic. Unable to get a divorce, Thea headed to the company to continue
dealing with company affairs
James slept until noon.
Outside Common Clinic, Nine Dragons Street-food stall. James put one foot on a bench and nibbled on
a chicken wing. âHenry, simply delaying the divorce isnât going to do. You have to help me come up with
something.â
âWhat can I come up with?â
âIâm not a relationship expert either.â Henry was depressed,
A thought suddenly popped into Henryâs mind. âOh right!
âJames, isnât it going to be Lexâs eightieth birthday soon? How about you do something to make him
look good during his birthday party? He will finally acknowledge you if he is pleased. Iâve heard that
Thea prioritizes the opinions of her family the most. Thus, if Lex refuses to let her get a divorce, sheâll
surely listen to him.â
Jamesâ eyes lit up, and he slammed the table. âGreat idea! Youâre the best friend ever! Youâve solved
all my problems! Now, hurry and tell me, how am I going to make Lex happy?â
âThe Callahans are very egoistic people. They will surely be pleased to have the Blithe King at Lexâs
eightieth birthday party. When they find out you were the one who invited the Blithe King, theyâll
definitely look at you with high regard!â Henry said enthusiastically.

Jarnes nodded his head. âThat does make sense.
âHowever, I just want to live peacefully and donât want everyone in the world to know of my identity.
Everyone would look at me respectfully and with admiration when Iâm outside if word spread. Wouldnât
that be counteractive?â
âWellâ¦I canât help with that.â Henry shook his head, picked up his chopsticks, and focused on eating.
James continued to think hard about how to boost Lexâs ego without revealing his identity as the Black
Dragon.
âIâve got an idea!â
A plan flashed across his mind. âIâll use the identity of the Cadens!â âHuh?â Henry glanced at James.
âApart from being the Black Dragon, Iâm also a member of the Cadens. Ten years ago, the Cadens
were the number one household in Cansington. There was no such thing as the Great Four in the past.
My grandfather had wide connections everywhere, so if I use my identity as a member of the Cadens,
the Callahans will surely be pleased. At the same time, I can also reveal to Thea my identity as the
ghost â masked man that saved her,â said James.
âYou have to rethink that plan, James. Youâre going to be settling your grievances with the Great Four
in a few days. Even though it might not be a bloodbath, youâll still end up killing a lot of people. Do you
think Thea would still want to be with you if she finds out that there is blood on your hands?â Henry
dissuaded him. James nodded.
âTrue. This wonât work, but what else can I do?â Henry shook his head. Out of these two people, one
was the Commander of the Southern Plains, who carried five stars on his shoulders. The other was a
one-star General of the Southern Plains. These two had never panicked in the face of thousands of
enemy troops, yet they were in deep water because of Thea. James was willing to do his best for Thea.
After lunch, he headed directly to the Callahansâ villa. He rang the doorbell.
The person who opened the door was Lexâs granddaughter, Megan. She immediately crossed her arms
when she saw James and said condescendingly, âI was wondering who it was. It turns out itâs James,
the person who lives off the Callahans. Whatâs up? What are you doing here?â James came to see Lex
and refused to waste time with Meganâs nonsense.
