Chapter 967
The Almighty Dragon General
After a short while, Thea felt a warm and comfortable energy spreading throughout her body.
The warmth seemed to come from the points where James had placed his needles.
James carefully inserted energy-infused needles into her body.
In an instant, there were already seven placed in various places on Theaâs body.
After the eight needles, his True Energy was almost spent.
With this technique, a portion of the poison in Theaâs body had been successfully expelled.
However, there was a limit to using Crucifier this way.
Thus, James could not completely eliminate all the poison in Theaâs body.
"Wait a while, Thea.I'll go get some acupuncture needles."
"Alright."
Thea was lying on the sofa.She felt much better and was relieved that she was not going to die.
James hurried off to get some acupuncture needles and returned to the office just as quickly.
Then, he closed the door and started using acupuncture needles to expel the rest of the inside Thea.
Within a few minutes, Theaâs body was completely clear of the poison that plagued it. After regaining
her strength, Thea quickly picked up her clothes and got dressed.
James immediately started chastising her, "That was completely irresponsible of you! I already told you
not to act impulsively.You wouldnât have made it if I were even a few minutes late!"
"I-I didnât have the time to think of something else.I thought I could suppress the poison in my body and
expel it.I made a mistake while circulating which caused the poison to spread normally.The poison then
made its way through my body.I was flustered because of the stress of the situation and lost complete
control over the poison."
Thea lowered her head and sulked like a child who had been caught doing something wrong.
James did not further berate her for her actions.
Fortunately this time, nothing had happened.
"Donât ever act so recklessly again.You're not always going to be this lucky.I canât save you every time."
"Okay," Thea murmured dejectedly.
"By the way, do you know have any idea where Quincy is?" James asked Thea about Quincyâs
whereabouts yet again.
The current situation was looking rather dire.
Not only that, he was naturally not business savvy.
Thus, he could not step up and take charge of Messiah even if he wanted to.He needed Quincyâs help
to manage the company.
Thea lowered her head dispiritedly.She was not expecting James to still long for Quincy.
Thea was aware of Messiah Corporation's situation.
With so many unexpected incidents, someone capable was needed to keep the company afloat in hard
times.She looked at James and said firmly as she put her hand on her chest, "Honey, I can do it.Iâm just
as good as Quincy.If you give me a chance, I'll surely be able to save Messiah."
"Thea, this isnât a garne we're talking about here."
James took a deep breath and pinched the bridge of his nose in exasperation.
"There isnât enough time for you to learn to manage the company.There isnât any room for mistakes
right now.One wrong move and weâre doomed.I hope you can think of the big picture and stop acting so
petulantly.Things are bigger than your discomfort against other women."
"But Iâm not trying to be childish!!!"
"Then tell me where Quincy is.I need to bring her back.Sheâs the one who established Messiah, and
the company is locked ina stalemate without her authority.Scarlettâs ability is limited, and she wonât be
able to care for the company alone," James said grimly.
Thea fell into silence.
The last thing she wanted at this moment was for Quincy to show up.
Thea believed she could help him.
However, James was not convinced her words contained anything other than empty promises.
James reached out and put his hands on Theaâs shoulders.
He looked her straight in the eye and said, "Thea, you've been with my grandfather for some time, so
you should know what happened a hundred years ago and why Centennial Corporation exists
today.Theyâre trying to accomplish what they couldnât a hundred years ago.Do you know the
consequences if theyâre able to successfully use Gu to control the world?"
Thea did hear Thomas mention something about it before.
"I really donât know where Quincy and Tiara are.Believe me, James! Iâll inquire with the Four Great
Protectors and give you an answer tonight," Thea raised her head and replied.
"Alright."
James drew in a sharp breath.It was plain to see that Thea knew where Quincy and Tiara was and was
only trying to back up her previous lies.
