The Almighty Dragon General novel Chapter 1159

Chapter 1159

As James looked at the women, he could see that their complexions were good and still in good mental condition. It was evident they had not been tortured in the past few days.

"Let them go”

Lucjan shrugged and waved his hand dismissively. "Of course, I can let them go, James. They're all free to leave any time, but just listen here.

You've killed Mount Thunder Sect's leader. I;m sure you're aware of the implications of killing someone of that status in the ancient martial world?"

James went silent and did not reply.

Lucjan continued. ‘The Mount Thunder Sect is highly respected in the ancient martial world. Their sect leader 100 years ago was the Great Grandmaster, and Mount Thunder Sect stood at the helm of all the ancient martial artists. Not to mention, they're also the main force behind the King. Do you think you can still return to being the Dragon King and Emperor despite all this?

Quincy frowned uneasily upon hearing Lucjan’s lengthy monologue.

"James ... What exactly have you done?"

Although she had no idea who or what the Mount Thunder Sect was, it was not hard to tell that James had killed an incredibly prominent figure.

James did not spare Quincy a glance.

"Let them go first."

"I'm afraid I can’t do that just yet.” Lucjan shook his head dramatically.

He was not stupid. James was young but already possessed immense strength. If he let them go that easily, he would have nothing to use against James and the man would immediately turn against him

Lucjan took out a pill and slid it over to James. "Eat it. I'll release them after you swallow it."

James took the pill on the table.

The black and odorless pill was the size of an olive.

"Don't do it, James! Don't eat it!"

"James, don't be fooled!"

The women pleaded as they tried to prevent James from consuming the pill.

James hesitated for a while. Then he promptly opened his mouth and swallowed the pill.

"No..."

The faces of the women turned pale instantly.

After swallowing it, James asked nonchalantly, “What's this?"

"It's called Soul Eating Pill.”

Lucjan smiled and replied, ‘This unique poison is the specialty of the Owen family. No matter the strength of your martial arts, the poison will take effect the moment you consume it. You'll have to take an antidote once a month. If you miss a single dose, the poison will spread and you'll feel as if a thousand tiny insects are feasting upon your heart. The pain is said to be so unbearable that you wish you were dead.
