The Almighty Dragon General novel Chapter 1197

Chapter 1197

‘Why is Maxine trying to kill me?’

James was puzzled.He believed that this was unusual of her.

Maxine was an intelligent woman and would tackle a problem from all aspects. If even Maxine believed that he had turned evil, that meant he had successfully fooled the world.

However, he dismissed those thoughts. Maxine must be up to something. However, he could not figure her out at the moment.

"D-Darling, please tell me that everything I saw was just a pretense. There must be more to things, right?” Thea looked at James pleadingly.

"It's a long story."

Since they were alone, James told Thea the whole truth.

"After arriving at the Mount Thunder Sect, Lucjan ordered me to assassinate Jackson Cabral, Sect Leader of the Mount Thunder Sect. I had no choice. However, I didn't actually kill him for real. As I knew that the Mount Thunder Sect was filled with spies from the Gu Sect, I offered to cooperate with Jackson after defeating him."

James narrated the chain of events that unfolded.

Upon hearing this, Thea was delighted.

She knew that James was a good guy.

"I'm sorry for wronging you..."

"Sigh... Thanks to you, my plan is ruined.” James sighed deeply. Then, he began treating his injuries.

After his organs were pierced by Thea's sword, his life was now hanging by a thread. He would have been dead if he had not reached the seventh rank. His injuries were also aggravated after leaping off the cliff to save Thea. Now, he required medical attention. Otherwise, he would be in mortal danger.

Outside the Mount Thunder Sect...

Lucjan and the others froze upon witnessing James leaping off the cliff.

Lucjan cursed, "What the hell? Did he just sacrifice his life for a woman? What a piece of trash!"

He was exasperated.

"His body was already pierced by a sword. Now that he's leaped off the towering cliffs, there’s no way he’s still alive."
