The Almighty Dragon General novel Chapter 1042

Chapter 1042

Maxine was afraid that if it came down to it, Tobias would force an answer out of her.She was worried she’d fold under the pressure and reveal that the elderly man was, in fact, James.

If she did, it would force James to go on the defensive and limit his movements.

A serious expression crossed Tobias' face as he sat in silence.

The only time he had ever lost to anyone was 20 years ago to an elite member of the Blithe Family.

His Thirteen Heavenly Swords technique was no match for the Blithe Fist of Abomination.

This loss had haunted him ever since.

He was now worried that another person had mastered the Blithe Fist of Abomination.

If the person happened to be Thomas Caden, then he’d have another formidable enemy that could threaten his family.

"Maxine, enlighten me.

What do you think Thomas’ scheme is? Why did he pretend to be an ordinary person in Cansington for the past 20 years? His family was burned to death, yet he did nothing.

Why did he hide for ten years only to suddenly kick his plans into action? What is he trying to accomplish? " Tobias dug out all the doubts that had been plaguing him and recited them as if they were items on a grocery list.

"Grandpa, I don’t have the answer for this either.My apologies." Maxine shook her head despondently.She genuinely had no idea what Thomas was up to.

He stayed hidden for so long and secretly established God-King Palace, only to hand it over to Thea.

Why did he fake his death again? Who was he trying to confuse? Maxine was unable to see through the series of actions that comprised his grand scheme.

"Thomas..." Tobias wore a sad expression.

"He mastered all the Cadens’ martial art skills a few decades ago.Now, he’s even learned the Blithe Fist of Abomination.He seems to have amassed many different martial art techniques in the last ten years."

Tobias was convinced that the elderly man that fought against Donovan in Mount Little Root was really Thomas in disguise.His thoughts only caused his various worries to grow.

"Sir, James is here to visit you." A disciple approached the two respectfully and announced James’ arrival.

"Got it.You may let him in." Tobias waved his hand.

"Understood." The disciple bowed and left.

Tobias looked at Maxine and said, "That’s enough.You can get up."

Maxine slowly got up.Her knees were slightly numb after having kneeled for an extended period of time.
