The Almighty Dragon General novel Chapter 1066

Chapter 1066

James had a sinking feeling that his grandfather, Thomas Caden, was still alive.

However, there was no way he could prove or confirm his suspicions.

Since Thea was close to his grandfather, naturally, the two must have been in contact at some point.

"Thea, please.I need to hear the truth."

James reached out his hand and placed it on Thea’s shoulder.

Thea looked at him and nodded sheepishly, "You're right.Grandpa is still alive.I did contact him before we came here, but only once.I couldn't reach him when I tried to contact him the second time.I really don't have a clue about his current whereabouts."

"Why did grandpa plan the ordeal in Mount Arclens and fake his death? Who is he trying to deceive?"

"Honey, I really don’t know...Grandpa was the one who brought me to Mount Arclens.I don’t know what he was trying to do.He told me after we arrived there that he was looking for the Sacred Fire Fig.While looking for it, we encountered a hundred-year-old fire snake.Grandpa killed it and refined its gallbladder for me to consume.That’s how I gained a third-rank True Energy."

Thea was unsure of Thomas’ plan.

However, Thomas assured her that he would not harm James and was only trying to help him.

That was the only reason she obeyed him, James frowned upon hearing her answer.He fell into thought.

After a while, he took a deep breath and sighed.

Then, he asked, "What’s grandpa’s current cultivation rank?"

Thea shook her head and said meekly, "I don’t know about that.Grandpa never told me, but I can tell he’s powerful from the strength he’s demonstrated in front of me.Plus, he knew the Moonlit Flowers on Cliffside's Edge’s secret all along.Yet, he did not bother using that cultivation method.This meant that he already was strong enough that the painting’s cultivation method wouldn’t change much in him."

James ran his hand through his hair and scratched his head frustratedly.He had trusted his grandfather all this time.

No matter what the world said about him, he was staunch in his beliefs that his grandfather was a good man.

For the first time, doubts about his grandfather loomed over his heart like dark clouds.

"Honey, Sir Caden isn’t a bad person.I trust him," Thea uttered softly.

"Mhm," James replied dismissively.

Thea nodded and said, "I’ve remembered the energy circulation route."

James stood up.

"Continue cultivating, and your True Energy will slowly convert into True Heavenly Energy.It’ll be possible for you reach the fourth rank or the fifth rank if you practice diligently.If you can do so, you'll be able to delay the aging of your cells and stay as beautiful as a flower even after decades."

Thea stood up and followed after James.

The two walked out of the room.

On the other hand, Maxine had already woken up a long time ago.She was dressed in a casual outfit, and her long chestnut -colored hair was tied into a ponytail.She finally started to look her age.

Maxine was sitting in a gazebo when she saw the two walking outside.

She stood up and a pretty smile formed on her face.

"James, early this morning, news came from the General Assembly Hall that the King held a meeting to announce your official appointment as the Emperor and commander of the Red Flame Anny.All three parties have signed their approval."
