James looked coldly at the Black Snake and said, “Let them go.”
The Black Snake’s eyes stayed on James. He pointed at Thea and Quincy, who were tied up, and said with a playful smile, “I’ll only let one go. You have the final say on who that will be.”
“Let Thea go.”
James did not hesitate.
The Black Snake gestured to his subordinates.
Immediately, one of his men walked over and untied Thea’s ropes.
Thea quickly got up. Her limbs were numb from being tied up for so long, and she immediately fell to the ground. She stood up again and glanced at the fully armed assassins around her, and her face went pale.
Her lips trembled. “James…w-what are you doing? Let them release Quincy instead. I’ll stay with you.”
Quincy, who was tied to the chair, shouted, “Thea, what are you doing? Leave quickly. Do you not want to live?”
“Thea, leave!” James shouted.
“I-I’m not leaving!” Thea’s face went pale in fear. She knew that she would die if she stayed behind. However, she was unwilling to leave James.
“James, please let them release Quincy, please? I can die with you,” Thea pleaded.
James glanced at the Black Snake sitting before him with a playful smile. Then, he said coldly, “Black Snake, send off my wife immediately. If she loses even a strand of hair, I’ll make sure to destroy the dark castle even if I die.”
“Alright. Send Thea away safely,” Black Snake nodded and ordered his subordinate.
“I-I’m not leaving!” Thea shouted.
She was forcibly taken away.
“James! Honey…”
Thea’s cry became weaker until it completely vanished.
Quincy was still tied to the chair. However, she felt no fear at all seeing James. Instead, she was slightly happy.
‘Who is he?
‘Who are these people?’
These were the two questions keep popping up in her mind.
Black Snake stood with a playful smile. “There is a saying that women can cause a hero’s fall. As expected, the Black Dragon defeated the twenty-eight-nation martial arts gurus, and a one hundred thousand-soldier army is about to fall because of a woman.”
The Black Snake mocked and pulled out a gun.
Bang! Bang!
He fired two consecutive shots.
James was shot in both legs, and his body involuntarily slumped to the ground.
