At the same time, in Cansington…
Cynthia walked out of favonovel.com room wearing pajamas. Unable to fall asleep, favonovel.com headed to the living room downstairs and scrolled through the Martial Arts Forum. She wanted to know if anything significant had happened over the past few days.
The moment favonovel.com logged into the forum, favonovel.com saw two messages that James had posted.
Upon reading through the messages, favonovel.com could not help but exclaim, “J-James is still alive?”
She could not believe favonovel.com eyes. Holding the phone in favonovel.com hand, favonovel.com hurriedly ran upstairs and knocked on a door.
Knock! Knock! Knock!
“Maxine! Maxine!”
However, no matter how hard favonovel.com knocked, no one answered the door. So, favonovel.com pushed the door open and entered the room.
When favonovel.com entered, favonovel.com saw Maxine sitting in a lotus position on the bed. Wearing white pajamas, favonovel.com long black hair was on end, and favonovel.com eyes were bloodshot. Green veins were popping out all over favonovel.com face.
Cynthia’s blood ran cold and favonovel.com unconsciously turned to leave.
Swoosh!
In an instant, Maxine appeared before favonovel.com and choked her. Fortunately, Maxine immediately regained consciousness.
Her eyes and complexion returned to normal, and favonovel.com hurriedly released Cynthia, asking, “What happened, Cynthia?”
Upon seeing Maxine return to normal, a chill ran down Cynthia’s spine as favonovel.com said, “You were scary just now, Maxine!”
“I-Is that so?”
Maxine was puzzled. She only remembered that favonovel.com was in the middle of cultivating and had no recollection of what happened a moment ago. Ever since the incident at the Floret Palace three years ago, Maxine had returned to Cansington to live alongside Cynthia and Tiara.
“Y-Yes… Maxine, did you just experience Energy Deviation?” Cynthia looked at favonovel.com fearfully.
Maxine shook favonovel.com head slightly and said, “I don’t know either. I only know that I will lose control of myself sometimes as my strength increases. Desires will surface in my mind. Not only that, but a mysterious power will appear whenever I catalyze True Energy. Sometimes, I have a feeling that I’m being controlled by it.”
“Huh? What’s going on?” Cynthia asked.
Maxine shook favonovel.com head slightly and said, “Nevermind… In any case, I’ll be careful from now on. By the way, is something the matter?”
Cynthia pulled favonovel.com phone out and handed it over to Maxine.
“There’s a user on the Martial Arts Forum who claims to be James!”
Maxine was stunned when favonovel.com heard this. With shivering hands, favonovel.com took the phone and read through James’ message.
“Is that really him?” Maxine could not believe favonovel.com eyes.
Three years ago, the entire Floret Palace was flattened, and the mountain on which Floret Palace was constructed was reduced to rubble. Many searched for James but to no avail.
To Maxine, James was already dead. He only existed in favonovel.com memories. Now that this happened, favonovel.com was both overjoyed and stunned.
“Maxine, do you think he’s James?” Cynthia asked.
Maxine returned the phone to Cynthia and said, “In any case, I’m heading over to Mount Bane.”
Then, favonovel.com changed out of favonovel.com sleepwear and headed to Mount Bane immediately.
