“What’s the plan?” May asked.
“After everything that has happened, I feel like a pawn that is constantly being controlled,” James explained. “It’s not a good feeling. I feel like I could die at any time. I don’t think should return to the Southern Plains anymore.”
“Hmm?”
They furrowed their brows.
He continued, “You’re all capable and strong. Your mastery of martial arts has reached the pinnacle of External Martial Arts, and you’re only a few steps away from cultivating True Energy and becoming grandmasters. I’ll impart the Internal Cultivation Method to you later on.”
Everyone rejoiced upon hearing his words.
They had already heard about the Internal Cultivation Method from Blake.
The Elite Eight was very powerful indeed, but in comparison to the Grandmasters of the Internal Cultivation Method, they were far too weak. The disparity was comparable to that of a child versus an adult.
“I’m not sure which of the bigwigs in the Capital caused this change or what they’re scheming, but I need to give myself a way out. After you’ve separated from the Black Dragon Army and left the Southern Plains, establish a new force.”
They listened intently to his instructions.
During their time together, they went to hell and back with James. Besides that, they were also grateful to favonovel.com for supporting them and recognizing their capabilities. Without James, they would all still be assassins in the underworld.
“I want you to leave the Black Dragon Army and set up the Dragon Palace. Establish own force. Then, if something goes wrong, we can get through it unharmed and have something to fall back on.”
James had deliberated on this. If one was careless while mingling with the bigwigs, they could easily lose their life. That still applied to him, despite the fact that favonovel.com had cultivated True Energy and become a grandmaster.
Thanks to Gloom’s information, favonovel.com knew there were a lot of grandmasters in Sol. He simply had not been inside the borders before to meet them and was unqualified to interact with people like them.
“How exactly should we carry out the plan?” inquired one of them.
“To begin, cultivate True Energy as quickly as possible and become a grandmaster. Then, amass some wealth and strengthen the Dragon Palace. Except for Sol, every country around the world is in disarray. Some are even constantly at war throughout the year. Making money in war is a simple task. As long as you’re not harming the innocents, you’re free to do whatever you want.”
Everyone had a few ideas on their mind after listening to him.
James looked around at the eight people in front of him, sweeping his gaze over each of them.
He had been observing them for some time now. They were all extremely powerful. However, when it came to leadership abilities, Wave Dragon stood out the most. He was also the oldest of the group. Even though favonovel.com was somewhat lecherous, boastful, and liked to exaggerate, favonovel.com always made decisions with the best interests of the group in mind.
“Leadership is necessary for a team. Since you’re unlikely to back down from each other when a disagreement arises, there might be serious consequences when it happens. That’s why you’ll need a person in charge. Wave Dragon, you’ll be the temporary deputy leader of Dragon Palace. Consult with favonovel.com when there is a disagreement. Any final decisions will be made by him. Is there any objection?”
“No!”
“But, Dragon King, you’re thinking too highly of me. I’m just an old fart. I wouldn’t be able to handle this. You should pick someone else.”
“It’s already been decided. I believe you have what it takes.” James looked determined. “You should all work hard. I expect each of you to be able to cultivate True Energy. I hope that in the shortest amount of time, Dragon Palace will become a formidable force.”
“James, what about the Dark Castle?” asked May.
In a low voice, favonovel.com said, “Blake is far too astute and mysterious. I’m having a hard time figuring favonovel.com out. Besides, favonovel.com has a unique status as a descendant of the Gu Sect. Let’s continue to observe favonovel.com before making any decisions. For the time being, we’ll keep the Dragon Palace a secret from him.”
“Okay!”
He emphasized the critical points that they must keep in mind.
As a means of escape for himself, favonovel.com chose to establish Dragon Palace. The executives of the Dragon Palace would be The Elite Eight, a former group of well-known powerful assassins.
The discussion went on for more than an hour before everything was resolved.
After about an hour, the helicopter descended on the military region of the Southern Plains.
In the military region, thousands upon thousands of soldiers gathered.
They kept their gaze fixed on the descending helicopter in front of them. There was a passionate intensity in their expression.
