The Almighty Dragon General novel Chapter 1267

Chapter 1267

James looked at the woman pushing the wheelchair but did not pay much attention to her remarks.

He truly had no interest in being the family head and would normally not involve himself in the Cadens‘ family affairs. He was only here out of respect for Bennett who had personally taught him in the past and even brought him back to heal his injuries.

James remained silent and waited patiently for the disciples and other family members to look for Bennett.

Lorenzo’s eyes lingered on James with a solemn expression on his old face.

Soon, the disciples and family members gradually returned.

“I couldn’t find the Grand Patriarch.”

“I’ve also searched the entire backyard, but he was nowhere to be seen.”

“I tried checking all the surveillance footage in our mansion but wasn’t able to find anything unusual.”

James‘ lips curved into a deep frown as he listened to the search reports.

Everyone else unanimously agreed with Maxine’s speculation on what had happened to Bennett.

They believed that Tobias attacked Bennett over the Spirit Turtle’s core and escaped after realizing that Bennett survived his ambush.

Standing behind them, Callan said, “Bennett is an eighth–ranked grandmaster. Even if he was injured or had exhausted his True Energy, he isn’t so weak that an ambush would be enough to take him out. He must’ve escaped to a safe spot by now, so you don’t have to worry too much about him.”

James took a deep breath and said, “I hope so.”

“James, are you really unwilling to be the family head?” Lorenzo asked once again.

James replied firmly, “Sir Lorenzo, I’m not fit to be the family head. Moreover, I’m injured, which further impedes my ability to lead the family. You should choose someone else.”

“Sir Lorenzo, since James is unwilling to be the family head, you shouldn’t force the matter.”

“Yeah, we have other more suitable members for the position. Plus, his grandfather was excommunicated from the family a long time ago. That alone should immediately disqualify him.”

“Sir Lorenzo, I think it’s best to choose a new family head from the younger generation. The seniors in the family should enjoy their retired life instead of being troubled by family affairs. What I’m trying to say is… The elders and seniors to give us youngsters an opportunity.”
