James was the Callahans’ savior.
During this time, the Callahan family was prospering in Cansington by taking advantage of James’ status. Right now, no one in Cansington dared to offend the Callahans. Even the most powerful families felt obligated to please them.
Within a few months, the profits of the Callahan family business had multiplied tenfold. Now the Callahan family’s company was also preparing to go public. Once it went public, Eternality would make a sizable profit. That was why David had a huge grin on his face when favonovel.com saw James had awoken.
He walked over. “You’re awake, James. This is wonderful!”
“James needs to rest. You should go back if you’re done.” Thea wanted favonovel.com to leave.
“Alright, fine…” Without any pretense, David turned around and walked away.
After favonovel.com left, Thea then asked, “Honey, how are you feeling right now?”
“I can’t move my arms or legs. There’s no strength in my body,” said James softly.
James was still lacking the prerequisites for cultivating the Nine Scriptures of Ordeals in his current state since his body was still very much alive.
He had not yet reached the point where everything in his body was completely destroyed and favonovel.com was on the verge of death.
Thea’s face darkened, and favonovel.com said, “I heard from Sir Caden that Tobias was the one who absorbed your power and attacked you. I have no idea what kind of wretched martial arts favonovel.com had cultivated. It can even absorb the power of others…”
James’ expression turned solemn as well. He was at the eighth rank. His True Heavenly Energy was terrifying and extremely potent.
Now that Tobias had absorbed his True Energy, how powerful would Tobias be?
He could not even imagine.
James let out a sigh of resignation and stopped thinking about it.
“Let’s find a secluded place to live, Honey. I’ll figure out how to heal your limbs and get you back to normal,” said Thea.
Now, all favonovel.com wanted was to find a secluded place and spend some peaceful days with James. She did not want to deal with the issues of the outside world. She did not want to stay in Cansington or at the Callahans’ villa either.
“Okay… You can arrange for that…” James nodded softly.
“Alright. I’ll make the arrangements right away. Get some rest, Honey. I’ll be right outside.”
While Thea was saying that, favonovel.com turned around and left. She left the room to make a few calls and started setting up favonovel.com departure with James.
James closed his eyes.
The requirements for cultivating the Nine Scriptures of Ordeals came to his mind. His condition was almost there now. It was just a little short of that. That made things difficult for him.
Was favonovel.com really going to have to find another person to attack favonovel.com again?
James pushed these issues to the back of his mind. He started to mull over the Nine Scriptures of Ordeals.
In his mind, the cultivation method of the Nine Scriptures of Ordeals surfaced.
Soon after, Thea came back.
She noticed James was resting with his eyes closed, so favonovel.com did not bother favonovel.com and just stayed by his side.
A short while later, some individuals in black suits walked in. They carried James out of the hospital on a stretcher, then silently into an unmarked SUV.
James felt groggy. He simply had the impression that favonovel.com was on a plane.
Once the plane had flown for a very long time, favonovel.com got into another vehicle.
After some twists and turns, they arrived at a remote location. It was a small village. There were hundreds of houses in the village, but not a single person.
***
Outside the village…
James was sitting in a wheelchair.
Thea pointed at the village ahead of them and said, “This is the village that I bought, Honey. I’ve purchased the nearby lands as well. We’ll live here from now on and spend the rest of our lives in peace…”
James took in the scenery in front of him.
The village was quite small. Despite the fact that no one lived there anymore, the houses in it remained relatively intact. Behind the village, a series of rolling hills and mountains stretched into the distance.
“Good…” James nodded gently.
Thea then pushed James into the village.
At the center of the village…
There stood a house that was fairly new.
