Chapter 5977

The Almighty Dragon General Chapter 5977-Lyla put James in one of the smaller halls located near the

main hall of Timaeus Sect’s headquarters.

She set up a formation surrounding the entire hall. Outside the hall, seven Yuraeceon Daelm Rank’s Fifth

Tribulation cultivators were stationed there to guard the entrance.

After settling everything, Lyla left James alone in the hall.

James sensed considerable hostility from Lyla. However, he could not recall any instances where he had

done something to upset her.

“Lesia, do you think we can break out of this place if something urgent comes up?” James transmitted

his voice to Lesia.

Lesia responded, “I’m busy absorbing the pills. Don’t talk to me.”

James paused momentarily. Then, he quickly channeled his Zen into the Golden Body.

To James’ horror, he found Lesia munching on pills as if she were eating snacks. After swallowing the

pills in her mouth, Lesia continued to stuff her mouth with more pills.

“Damn! Won’t the overflow of energy make your body burst at some point?”

James exclaimed.

Lesia snorted. “I need to grow my body. If I don’t eat a lot, how am I going to grow bigger and fight

better?”

“That… That’s not it.” James smiled wryly. “With how quickly you are eating these pills, how long can the

pills that we’ve raided recently last for your growth?”

“These pills are of subpar quality, and they taste bad.” Lesia shared her honest opinion. “They can help

me reach the Yuraeceon Daelm Rank’s Seventh Tribulation at most.

“The older batch of pills that you’ve stored in your spatial treasure was better.

Otherwise, I might have needed a longer time to awaken.”

James said in a raised voice, “You… You ate the pills that I’ve stored in my spatial treasure?!”

James hurriedly checked his spatial treasure.

Inside the space, he could only find pills that they had raided from Yaquis Sect’s three secret realms. All

of his top-grade pills were gone.

Those included the 100 Yuraeceon Daelm Rank’s Fifth Tribulation pills James received from Truett and

the pills Yegor offered as compensation to Xzavion and Stephen.

James finally realized what karma meant. He had gotten himself an exceptional fighter. Yet, at the same

time, he had to sacrifice large amounts of precious pills to sustain her.

He was not sure if he should just laugh or break down in tears at that moment.

Just then, James picked up the sounds of someone laughing softly.

He retracted his Zen and lifted his gaze. James found a spritely, elderly gentleman standing before him.

The elderly cultivator was looking at James with a smiling face.

“You are extremely calm even though things are getting rather chaotic outside.

You’re truly fearless.”

James pushed his face forward and stared at the old man’s hair. “Mister, your hair and beard have all

turned gray. You must hold a high position in Timaeus Sect’s headquarters, huh?”

The elderly cultivator took a step back and straightened himself. “Mr. Thornton sent me here to ask if you

would admit to your crimes?”

“Crimes?” James said flatly, “Were leaving the grounds of Timaeus Sect and attacking the members of

Yaquis Sect, who had a secret agenda against us, considered wrong?”

The elderly man chuckled softly. “You went ahead and admitted to those things so easily while the girls

had tried so hard to cover up for you.”

“Why do I have to cover up what I did?” James said nonchalantly, “I won, and I even got away

unscathed. I know the girls are worried that I’ll get punished, but I don’t mind it at all. I had fun kicking

those guys’ asses.”

Upon hearing his words, the elderly cultivator burst into laughter. “You have the valiant spirit of a fighter,

young man!”

Then, the elderly man sat in the nearby seat. “Tell me, then. What are the Yaquis Sect secretly planning

to do?”

James frowned slightly. “Mister, do you hold a high enough position in Timaeus Sect to meet Mr.

Thornton? Will he listen to you?”

The elderly gentleman grinned. “I’m just one of the elders, but Mr. Thornton does listen to my advice.”

“Great!” James sat in the empty chair next to the elderly cultivator. Then, he shared about how the

Yaquis Sect had started a new alliance to fight against the Timaeus Sect.

After listening to James, the elderly cultivator asked smilingly, “Did you eavesdrop on their

conversation?”
