The Almighty Dragon General novel Chapter 6995

“Surprise, surprise!” Lesia announced.

James curled his lips as he took in the shocked expression on Xanthakos’ face. “Do you still want to keep up with the act?”

Beside him, Lesia smiled enigmatically as well.

“You!” Xanthakos glared at Lesia. “Alas, you decided to complicate things! There I was thinking you’d be smarter than this!”

Lesia replied flatly, “On the other hand, it was exactly because you were so clever that you were blinded by greed.”

Xanthakos threw his head back and laughed scornfully upon hearing her words.

As the cynical smile on his face disappeared, Xanthakos stopped laughing and asked, “Frona, didnʼt those incidents happen just as I told James earlier?

“Without my help, could a mere human like him ever be able to amount to what he is now?”

Lesia sighed and looked at James. “Do you believe the things he said?”

James shrugged. “He was telling the truth. I didn’t detect any signs of illusion during our conversation. So, I think his statement isnʼt false.”

“His statement is not false.” Lesia nodded. “However, it is still highly questionable.”

“I see,” James responded enthusiastically.

On the contrary, Xanthakosʼ face hardened. “Whether it was as Emperor Jabari or Franciscus Yuelan, this guy did help you with many things.”

Lesia went on to explain, “However, his true intentions are to prepare you so that he can use you to achieve his goals.”

Lesiaʼs gaze fell on James again. “In other words, you are just one of his pawns.

“Everything he did so far was to create the impression that you might be the late Waitara Pathʼs Soremsia.

“Your status as a Chosen One was the result of his constant effort in making the divine beings become convinced that you might be the Waitara Pathʼs reincarnation.

“When the time comes, he can reveal all the things he has done for you and claim to be your benefactor. Moreover, he knows that the Yin governor is your biggest weakness.

“With all those factors combined, he could then pressure you into helping him reign over all worlds for as long as he wanted.”

“That’s a brilliant plan.” James gave an approving nod. “How come he changed his plans later on, though? Why instruct Yehria to disrupt my plans time and time again?”

Then, James cast a meaningful glance at Xanthakos.

Xanthakos was having a hard time controlling his expression after being exposed by Lesia. He appeared furious and flustered. “There were changes to his plans because of my appearance.”

Lesia gave Xanthakos a sidelong glance. “Of course, Yehriaʼs arrogance and recklessness have also ruined some of his plans. Remember the Forladtt Land? That place was the last of the fortunes intended for you in his attempt to control you.

“However, he didnʼt expect that you would actually succeed in gaining control of Emperor Yardenʼs Yonderverse Tower and becoming the lord of the Forladtt Land.
