The Almighty Dragon General novel Chapter 1464

Chapter 1464

“You lost?”

A surprised voice came from behind the curtain.

The voice was alluring and had a magnetic charm to it. It sounded like it could have either come from a woman or a gentle-sounding man.

“Tapio, you’ve already ascended the Third Stair of the Skyward Stairway and yet you still lost to James?” Tapio knelt on the ground with a frustrated and helpless expression clouding over his pale face.

“I don’t know what kind of martial art James was practicing. Not only did his body suddenly take on a bronze sheen, but his defenses also increased exponentially. He had a sort of Energy Wall covering the surface of his body, and my sword could not penetrate it even after putting all my strength behind the strike. The Spiritual Palm could only damage him to the extent of coughing up blood.”

He paused and continued as he selected his next words carefully. “Prolonging the fight would only be detrimental to us both. Your instructions were to test him and not kill him, so I admitted defeat.”

The person behind the curtain remained silent.

After a few seconds of silence, the person behind the curtain finally spoke again, “Alright, I got it. You’re dismissed.”

Tapio stood up and asked, “Sect leader, what do you need me to do next?”

“You don’t have to do anything. Just wait for the time being. When chaos arises, we’ll step up to clean up the mess.”

“Alright.”

Tapio turned and left.

A figure stood on the edge of a cliff deep in the dense forests of Mt. Thunder Pass.

This person was dressed in a baggy black coat, wore a hideous mask, and held a black sword in their hands.

It was none other than Thea.

After the battle between Tapio and James ended, Tapio made a hasty retreat.

Thea also made a move and secretly followed Tapio.

She followed him but lost track of Tapio’s energy after arriving at her current location.

Standing on the cliff’s edge, she looked in front of her.

Ahead of her was a bottomless, fogbound chasm. The thick fog obscured her vision making it impossible for her to see what was beneath the cliff.

She attempted to descend the cliff but discovered a Magic Circle beneath it.

When she tried to reach the bottom, she almost got caught in the Magic Circle and had no choice but to retreat. She stood on the edge and looked down pensively.
