The Almighty Dragon General novel Chapter 1553

Chapter 1553

He had suspected that it was either Thea or Thomas all along.

However, he had no conclusive evidence.

It never occurred to him that Celestial Sect’s leader would really be his wife, Thea, the woman who had endured so much suffering in the past.

“By the way, you said that Thea sent a letter of challenge to Tobias?”

“Yeah.”

“News of it has already spread in the ancient martial world. What’s going on? Weren’t you with Thea?” said Maxine.

“There were some unexpected circumstances.”

James briefly explained what had happened while he was recovering.

“Grandpa felt that the Spirit Turtle’s blood in Thea’s body showed great promise. He wanted to force Thea to experience an Energy Deviation so that she’d fully utilize the Spirit Turtle’s blood. Has anything major happened in the ancient martial world since then? Do you know if there has been any internal discord within Celestial Sect?”

Before Maxine could explain, Bennett interrupted their conversation and said, “Nothing has happened. The ancient martial world has been relatively peaceful. However, many martial artists had their True Energy absorbed by Tobias in Malgudi.”

“What’s the current situation regarding Tobias? Do you have an idea how strong he’s gotten since he’s absorbed my True Energy as well as that of other martial artists?” asked James concernedly.

Bennett shook his head and said, “I don’t know. Tobias hasn’t made an appearance since the battle in Malgudi.”

“Where’s Lucjan and the First Blood Emperor?” asked James.

Bennett said, “After Celestial Sect’s leader took you away, I rescued some other martial artists. Afterward, we fought against Lucjan and the First Blood Emperor. Both parties were injured during the battle and eventually fled…”

He went over what transpired after Thea took James away.

Although Lucjan had not been killed, the Gu Sect suffered heavy losses.

Lucjan had not shown up since the battle in Malgudi.

During this period, things in the Capital had been relatively peaceful, and there was no further activity by the Gu Sect or Orient Commerce.

Hearing this, James sighed in relief.

However, he still had not found out Thea’s whereabouts.

The only news about her was that she had challenged Tobias to a duel to the death at Mt. Thunder Pass.

Tobias absorbed not only James‘ True Energy but also the True Energy of many other martial artists. Yet, no one knew what rank he had reached after having done this.
