The Almighty Dragon General novel Chapter 2144

Chapter 2144

Contrary to Cloyd’s assumptions, James was not a simpleton.

Although he was displeased, he did not let it show on his face. He looked at James with a smile and said, “Young man, do you understand what you’re saying? Have you any clue what kind of organization the Dark Keep is? Even I, myself, am not confident I can save Laelia’s family from them. Are you implying you have the strength to rescue them?”

“You don’t have to worry about that.”

James’ expression remained calm.

Although James had only just met Cloyd, he learned from Laelia’s description of him that he would protect anyone seeking shelter in Liberty City, even if they had committed heinous crimes.

Someone who would do something like this was definitely not a good person.

Cloyd smiled faintly and said, “Haha… I heard that the Dark Keep’s Deputy Master was killed while trying to assassinate Laelia. Does this perhaps have something to do with you, young man?”

James glanced at him and said coolly, “I wasn’t expecting you to be so well-informed.”

He did not deny it and said, “That’s right. I was the one who killed the Dark Keep’s Deputy Master, Saturio.”

Cloyd asked the question rather offhandedly. Thus, he was shocked when James confirmed his statement. He could not help but stare at James in bewilderment.

Saturio already reached the Immortal Ascension rank. Even Cloyd, himself, would find it hard to kill him. He did not expect Saturio to die at the hands of the young man before him.

‘Is this young man really that strong?’

Cloyd tried to analyze James’ strength.

However, James’ True Energy was hidden in a small energy reservoir within his meridian. Thus, Cloyd could not sense any energy nor infer James’ true strength.

After a brief shock, he smiled and said, “Indeed, many talented people in the younger generation exist. I never expected such a powerful human to appear on Earth since my absence. “Serve our guests some tea.”

Soon, a maid came into the room with tea.

Laelia picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said, “Lord Cloyd, please tell us about the Dark Keep.”

“What’s the rush?”

Cloyd smiled and watched as James sipped the tea.
