“But…”
Suddenly, the door was pushed open again, and Gloom walked into the study.
Seeing that Mia was also present, he quickly said, “I’ll come back later.”
After speaking, he proceeded to leave.
“Go ahead and report.” The King stopped Gloom from leaving.
He turned to Mia and said, “Mia, go outside first. I’ve some business to settle.”
“Okay.”
Mia cast a glance at Gloom and turned to leave.
After she left, the King asked, “What happened for you to come to me so late?”
Gloom’s expression darkened as he explained, “News had just come in that the Red Flame Army has been dispatched.”
“What?”
The King stood up in shock and asked, “The Red Flame Army has been dispatched?”
“Yes.”
Gloom nodded and said, “One thousand Red Flame Army soldiers were dispatched. James recruited these soldiers from the Southern Plains.
After several seconds, the King sat down and asked, “Who’s James targeting?”
Gloom shook his head and said, “I don’t know.”
The King said slowly, “Tonight won’t be a peaceful night in the Capital. You go and keep an eye on the situation. If you get any news, inform me immediately.”
“Understood.”
Gloom turned and left.
After he left, the King’s expression became increasingly solemn.
Was James finally about to make a move?
Who was his first target?
How would the Gu Sect and Orient Commerce fight back?
The King was both anticipating it and afraid of the outcome.
The news of the Red Flame Army dispatching troops had gone viral throughout the Capital. All the major forces, families, and wealthy figures knew that the Red Flame Army had dispatched soldiers.
Many people in the Capital stayed up and waited for the latest news.
Meanwhile, James was sitting in a military vehicle.
Before leaving, he had notified people from the Celestial Sect to stand on guard secretly.
