Chapter 2599

Walganus rubbed his temples and said, "I can’t make a move against him at the moment.He’s the key

to obtaining the swordsmanship inheritance and the Curse Magic.I shouldn’t make a move against him

unless absolutely necessary."

"Will he suspect things?"

Yanina was worried.

Walganus lifted her chin and asked smilingly, "Why? Are you scared?"

"N-No, I’m not."

She pretended to be brave.

Walganus said smilingly, "Don’t worry. I'll hold up my end of the bargain. Once everything’s resolved,

you’ll be the Sword Master of the Crepe Myrtle Sword Pavilion.= If you wish, I can even make you the

Empress of Sangria."

"Thank you, Walganus."

Yanina was grateful for his deeds.

Walganus pointed at Xianna, whose life was hanging by a thread, and said, "Lock her up for now."

"Understood. I’ll personally bring her to the dungeon."

Yanina grabbed Xianna and took her to the dungeon.

Then, Walganus left.

After capturing the Sword Master and Xianna, he acted as if nothing had happened and returned to his

accommodation.

Meanwhile, James was clueless about everything that just went down.

After spending the whole day in his room, he believed he should discuss things with the Sword Master.

As the leader of the Crepe Myrtle Sword Pavilion, perhaps she might have some clues.He made his

way to the Sword Master’s residence, but she was nowhere to be seen.

"where did she go?" James furrowed his eyebrows.

Then, he went searching for Xianna. However, she too was nowhere to be seen.

"Where did they go?" James murmured.

However, he still did not suspect anything.

Then, he went searching for Walganus.

At the courtyard where Walganus was staying, Walganus sat in a lotus position on the ground,

cultivating in earnest.

Upon sensing James’ presence, he immediately stopped cultivating and stood up.Then, he walked over

to James and asked smilingly, "Did you find any clues, James?"

"Nope."

James shook his head and said, "I wanted to ask the Sword Master something.However, she’s

nowhere to be seen.Have you seen her?"

"Nope."

Walganus acted as if he knew nothing.

"Have you seen the Empress, then?" James asked again.

Walganus shook his head.

"That's too."

James furrowed his eyebrows and said, "How weird..Where did they go?"

Walganus said smilingly, "Maybe they went somewhere else to discuss something.Just wait for them to

return.I don’t think they’ll be gone for long."

"Mhm."

James nodded.

Walganus was right.

They must have headed somewhere to discuss something important.

"Sorry for bothering you."

James clasped his fists and turned to leave after saying goodbye.

After he left, the smile on Walganus’ face froze as he said coldly, "Do you seriously think you’d still be

standing here intact in front of me if you weren’t useful?"

Walganus made a move against the Sword Master and Xianna because he suspected that they were

hiding something from him.

Hence, he captured them in the hopes of interrogating them.

After learning their secrets, he would help James obtain the swordsmanship inheritance.

Once James obtained the inheritance, he would be dead meat.

James left, not knowing where the Sword Master and Xianna had gone to.He returned to his courtyard

and sat in a lotus position to summon his Yogacara.

At that moment, his pores opened up, and countless Sword Energies materialized, gathering together

to form a red Sword Energy.

The Sword Energy was a hundred meters in length and a few meters in width.

Like a dragon, it soared into the sky.

At that moment, all of the Crepe Myrtle Sword Pavilion could sense the majestic Sword Intent.

James looked at his Yogacara and nodded in satisfaction.

Like a dragon, it soared into the sky.
