The Almighty Dragon General novel Chapter 7531

James and Thea stared intently at the sealed energy ball hovering in the air.

Meanwhile, Xezal and Rebella wore blank expressions as they stared in the same direction, as if petrified.

After a moment, James grasped the sealed energy ball and took a deep breath.

“You wanted to save her but ended up helping that wench,” Thea said, her dissatisfaction evident.

James lowered his head and sighed. “I just wanted to know why.”

“Fine. If that’s what you say…” Thea turned and looked him in the eye. “Is the guilt eating away at you, then? Do you feel sorry for her?”

James remained silent.

Thea fixed her gaze on him. A few seconds later, she extended her hand.

“...Huh?” James was confused.

“Give it to me,” Thea said coldly. “Let me handle it if you meant every word you said.”

James paused briefly. “We need to put this inside the Caeloros Supreme Scepter. We can’t leave it unattended in the Haleth Realm…”

“Give me the Caeloros Supreme Scepter too, then.” Thea cut him off. “Power-wise, I’m stronger than you now.”

James smiled wryly and transmitted his thoughts to Thea.

“The scepter is currently in Lesia’s possession. Once we meet her, I’ll get it back and…”

Before he could finish, Thea snatched the sealed energy ball from his hand.

“Okay. Then, I’ll keep this for now.”

James was at a loss for words. Anything he said could sound out of place.

If Thea detected any reluctance in his voice, she would surely fly into a temper.

Xezal took a deep breath and got down on one knee. “Thank you for showing me mercy, Emperor Caden!”

“I haven’t decided whether I should kill you or not,” James said. “But you need to tell the person behind you to focus on managing the Jademora Empire’s internal affairs and choosing the right people to employ.

“Everyone needs to work together to convince the impostor that we’re moving according to their plan.

“In the end, how much you and that person can extract from the impostor is up to your abilities.”

Xezal lifted her head. “What about Waitara’s reincarnated Soremsia…”

“You don’t have to worry about that,” James said, shaking his head. “I came back specifically to handle it.”

Xezal fell silent.

James turned his gaze to Rebella and smiled.

“Have you decided whether I’m the real thing or not?”
