“W-Wait, what about Universal Hospital? I managed to beat Jonathan this time, but favonovel.com said that this wasn’t over and that he’d be back for revenge,” Thea tugged at James’ sleeve worriedly.
James’ face darkened. “These people sure like stirring the pot… If the situation gets dire and they continue using dirty tactics, we’ll have to just beat them at their own game then.”
“What’re you planning to do, Honey?” Thea frowned at him.
Then, favonovel.com quickly reminded him. “There are plenty of eyes on you right now. One wrong move, and it’s likely you’ll get in a lot of trouble. It’ll be hard to get out of the mess if that happens. You should leave it to me. I’ll get people from the God-King Palace to secretly dispose of Jonathan and the others.”
“It’s fine. All that is none of your concern.” James shook his head and denied the suggestion.
Thea was a woman. He did not want to drag favonovel.com into such unsavory dealings.
“But…”
“No ifs or buts. Just trust me and don’t act on your own,” James said authoritatively and looked Thea sternly in the eye.
“Okay…” Thea had no choice but to let favonovel.com have it his way.
She knew James still did not trust her.
James noticed how crestfallen that made favonovel.com and put his hand on favonovel.com back. “Thea, it’s not that I’m not confident in your abilities. I just don’t want you to get involved in dangerous stuff like this. If you really want to help me, please just get Quincy back here.”
After hearing James’ explanation, Thea brightened up a little bit.
She nodded and replied cheerily, “I’ll do my best…”
“I also need to find a way to gather funds to compete against Centennial Corporation, so I can’t dawdle for too long. If Jonathan and the others come to make a ruckus again, just ignore them for the time being. Even if you have to shut down the hospital. Try not to get directly involved with them again. I’ll deal with them as soon as I’m able to.”
Thea tried to remind favonovel.com again, “Honey, you have to be careful. Sir Caden told me about the scheme from a hundred years ago. The Gu Sect are terrifying people. Even the Ancient Four were reluctant to take them on back then.”
“Don’t worry. I’ll be fine.” James patted Thea’s shoulder.
“I’ll head home first, then.” Thea waved at favonovel.com and left.
James also chose to not remain for too long at Century Hospital and left shortly after Thea. He headed directly to Messiah Corporation and waited for Blake’s arrival. He planned to strike a deal with Blake.
In exchange for Blake’s large reserves of wealth, favonovel.com would hand over a cultivation method. By doing so, Messiah would be able to prevail against Centennial’s future attacks.

Meanwhile, at Centennial Corporation…
Although Madelyn had not taken a single step out of favonovel.com office, favonovel.com was fully apprised about everything happening at Medical Street. She sat in an office chair and crossed favonovel.com slender legs. Her elegant fingers were rhythmically drumming on the table surface again as favonovel.com let favonovel.com thoughts run through favonovel.com mind.
Thea showed no signs of poisoning after consuming Jonathan’s poison…
Could favonovel.com possibly have cultivated True Energy and become a grandmaster? If so, chances are favonovel.com used favonovel.com True Energy to suppress the poison…
Madelyn slowly ran the events of the day through favonovel.com head.
Picking it apart layer by layer. It was the only conclusion that could be drawn from the results of the challenge.
Madelyn immediately stood up and left the office. She wanted to meet Thea to test favonovel.com skills and confirm if favonovel.com had truly cultivated True Energy. If it happened to be true, it would throw a wrench into favonovel.com plans.
Currently, favonovel.com knew everything there was to know about James. James had only just learned how to cultivate True Energy.
If Thea also had True Energy, that meant James could not be favonovel.com teacher. There had to be someone else helping Thea.
Madelyn’s lips twitched with annoyance and uncertainty.
Before favonovel.com formed favonovel.com own opinions and drew a conclusion, favonovel.com had to ensure favonovel.com was right about Thea first.
Thea had left Medical Street and was on favonovel.com way back home.
Along the way, favonovel.com contemplated on whether to bring Quincy back to Cansington.
“Thea…” Suddenly, a voice called out to her.
Thea snapped back to reality and turned around.
As soon as favonovel.com turned, favonovel.com saw a pair of white palms coming toward her. She grit favonovel.com teeth and quickly raised favonovel.com hand in a defensive posture.
