James tossed the sword aside.
Then, he glanced at Hades, who was lying on the ground motionless.
He knew that a sixth-rank martial artist like Hades would not die so easily. Since Hades came here looking for trouble, he would have to make an example out of him. Otherwise, trouble would only keep coming.
He walked toward Hades.
Clack! Clack! Clack!
Every step he took sent shivers down the spine of the other three families of the Ancient Four.
Even Zaiden and Yasmine were shocked.
They had predicted that Hades could be defeated by James, considering that the latter had defeated Donovan Blithe at the Western Border. However, even if he was defeated, they assumed that they would be on even footing, not a landslide victory by James.
Seeing that James had defeated Hades, Tobias’ expression turned grim. He was worried that Hades’ death would enrage the Johnstons.
The Johnstons were not as simple as they seemed to be. They were a family that had existed for thousands of years, after all. Once they set their sights on revenge, hell would break loose.
He wanted to stop James.
However, after thinking about it, he chose to do nothing.
After all, James was no longer a Caden. His actions had nothing to do with the Cadens.
Now that James’ crisis was averted, there was no need for him to show himself anymore.
James walked toward Hades.
Although Hades was still alive, his life was hanging by a thread. Lying on the ground, his face was pale. He sat up with great difficulty and tapped a few acupuncture points on his chest.
Then, lifting his head, he met James’ gaze. A vein popped out in his neck, and he said coldly, “What are you trying to do, James?”
“What am I trying to do?” James looked at him and said, “Kill you, of course.”
“You dare? Do you know who I am? I’m the Patriarch of the Johnstons! If you kill me, the Johnstons will hunt you to the ends of the earth!” Hades threatened.
“Trying to intimidate me?” James smiled coldly. Then, powerful True Energy gathered in his palm.
From afar, Zaiden and Yasmine looked at one another.
Yasmine shook her head. “He’s too strong. Even if the both of us join forces, we won’t stand a chance against him.”
Zaiden nodded, seemingly in agreement with Yasmine’s opinion.
