Maxine knew that Thea would surely take action.
Thus, Maxine wanted to know more about what she had in mind so she could provide any assistance if Thea needed it.
“Thea, you don’t have to be so hostile toward me. I’m just here to see if there’s any way I can help you,” said Maxine.
In James' presence, Thea treated her with grace and generosity.
However, when they were alone, Thea was prickly and cagey towards Maxine. It was as if she had some deep-seated grudge towards her.
Thea looked at Maxine and said, “We’ll talk inside.”
She turned around and went back inside the room.
Maxine followed after her.
Inside the room, Maxine asked, “You’re carrying the Malevolent Sword, so I’m assuming you must be planning quite the journey. What are you planning to do?”
Thea replied in a straightforward manner, “The ancient martial world is in disarray. James is already biting off more than he can chew. He cannot afford to spend time on unnecessary distractions. Therefore, I plan to help him restructure the ancient martial world and make them submit to the Celestial Sect. I plan to head to Mount Thunder Sect and force them to surrender to me.”
Maxine’s jaw dropped when she heard Thea speak so casually about her plans.
“Are you planning to go on a killing spree?”
Thea looked at her and said, “I’m aware of the principles, so I promise won’t kill innocent people. I’ll only use the Celestial Sect to put some pressure on Mount Thunder Sect. I’m not planning to massacre them.”
If Thea decided to go all-out and use force against Mount Thunder Sect, there was a low chance that anyone could stop her.
In fact, Mount Thunder Sect would not be the only one who would be unable to oppose Thea. As it stands, there is hardly anyone in the entirety of Sol who can probably go toe-to-toe with Thea.
“Is there anything I can do to help?”
“You’re incapable of helping with anything, so just continue on with whatever you were doing before, and don’t worry about the rest.”
Thea did not need Maxine’s assistance. As long as Maxine stayed out of trouble and did whatever James required of her, Thea was not bothered in the least about what she did.
“Fine, then. Pretend I never visited.”
Maxine got up and attempted to leave.
“Also, you had better keep your mouth shut about what you heard… Or else…”
Before Maxine could leave the room, Thea suddenly threatened her.
Maxine stopped in her tracks for a few seconds. Then, she continued walking away and left without looking back.
After Maxine left, Thea promptly left to get started on her plans as well.
