Cynthia had no business meddling in James' affairs.
Upon seeing Thea, she had the urge to say something but swallowed the urge.
Thea walked toward the sofa and sat opposite Cynthia. Then, she looked at James. “Honey, what are you planning on doing next?”
James also sat down. He shook his head and replied, “I’ve no plans for now.”
He was like a blind man that was not able to see the path ahead.
“We’ll stay in Cansington for the time being and observe the overall situation. Right now, there isn't much to do. All I can do is hone my skills and continue to improve my strength as much as possible.”
Maxine had made James aware of how far beneath the Ancient Four's strength he was.
As he was, he was too weak to achieve anything.
He was nothing compared to the Ancient Four.
Unless he reaches the fifth rank, he would essentially be a sitting duck for his enemies.
Regardless of his rank, he would still end up doomed if the Ancient Four were really determined to eliminate him.
“Honey, can you send me to the military region? I’d like to train there for a while,” Thea asked unexpectedly.
She had no actual combat experience despite having achieved the third rank of True Energy cultivation. In order to be of use to James, she had to accustom herself to the True Energy within her body as soon as possible. Her physical strength also needed to be built up to cope with sudden changes as well.
Going to the military region for special training would kill two birds with one stone.
“A military training regiment will be difficult. I fear you won't be able to handle it,” James looked at her with worried eyes.
To him, women were beings that needed protection and were supposed to be pampered.
Military training was not something he wanted Thea to undergo.
It was enough that she could protect herself at critical moments with her True Energy.
“But, I want to help you…”
James interrupted her with a wave of his hand. “The best way to help me is to stay safe and sound. I’m not discussing this any further. It's been a few days since you arrived in Cansington, and the Callahans are worried about you. I suggest you head back and let them know you’re safe.”
“Are you coming with me, honey? ”
“I can’t leave just yet.”
James had no plans to return to the Callahans' villa. He planned to stay at Cynthia's house for a while longer.
