In the suburbs of the Capital…
A convoy stopped at the foot of a hill.
Three people got off the convoy. They were James, Thea, and Maxine.
James pointed at a courtyard at the foot of the hill and said, “This is the Sullivans’ residence. Let’s get moving.”
Then, he walked toward the Sullivans’ residence with Thea and Maxine following close behind.
Soon, they arrived at there.
Before they even knocked on the door, the door opened, and a twenty-year-old-looking man walked out. He was Skylar Sullivan, a disciple of the Sullivans’ main branch and Maxine’s suitor.
Skylar was playing around with a pair of car keys in his hand. Noticing there was someone by the door, he unconsciously lifted his head. Upon seeing James and the others, a shiver ran down his spine. He stumbled back into the courtyard and screamed at the top of his lungs, “Help, James is here!”
News of James defeating the Johnstons’ Patriarch had spread.
Now, they knew of James’ unrivaled strength.
Hearing Skylar’s scream, the Sullivans gathered at the front door armed to the teeth. Some were carrying long swords; some were carrying rifles; some were holding heavy weaponry.
“Who do you think you are?” a roar came.
A fat man walked out.
It was Zaiden, Patriarch of the Sullivans.
He was around forty years of age.
Looking at James and the others, Zaiden’s face darkened, and he said coldly, “How dare you make your way here to the Sullivans, James?! Do you seriously think that you’re invincible?”
James froze.
Hearing this, Zaiden fell silent.
He was contemplating whether or not to reveal the truth to James.
As the Patriarch of one of the Ancient Four, he had a certain understanding of the dynamics of the outside world. He knew that the faction Yaroslav was a part of opposed the King. Meanwhile, as the Dragon King of the Southern Plains, James was on the side of the King and the nation.
After a moment, he said, “It’s Yaroslav.”
Maxine asked, “Are you referring to Mr. Gabriel who’s behind the previous Emperor?”
“Yes.” Zaiden nodded.
Hearing this, Maxine shot James a look, as if saying that she had been right all along.
James asked, “Could you provide me with more details about Mr. Gabriel?”
