Chapter 996
Sebastian wore a look of disdain on his face. “He’s just a dog of the Blithe family. It’s all thanks to the family’s
support that he’s managed to become the commander-in-chief of the Blithe King army. We can remove him from
his position anytime we want.”
Hearing this, James fell silent. From the brief conversation, he had a rough idea of where the Blithe King stood in
the family.
Looking at the courtyard before him, James walked in.
At a rest area of the courtyard...
A man and a woman were happily chatting away.
The woman was about eighteen years of age. She had long hair and fringe that was just at the right length. It
accentuated her childlike features.
The man was around twenty years of age. He had long hair and was wearing a big, white coat.
James recognized the woman.

She was Madelyn.
He momentarily froze. Then, he walked over to them and took a seat. Looking at Madelyn, James said smilingly,
“We meet again, Ms. Gabriel.”
Madelyn glanced at him and said, “I didn’t expect you to return so quickly. I thought you’d spend a few more days
at Mount White with your lover Maxine.”
James smiled.
Looking at the man in a white coat, he said, “You must be the young master of the Blithe family.”
Madelyn said smilingly, “Let me introduce Flynn Blithe, the young master and future head of the Blithe family.
Though he’s young, he’s a highly skilled martial artist who’s reached the fourth rank. His future is bright.”
Madelyn made sure to kiss Flynn’s *ss as she introduced him to James.
‘Fourth rank?’
James could not help but glance at Flynn, who was scrolling through his phone.
Though he looked at most twenty-five years of age, he possessed even greater strength than James.
No wonder the Blithe King said that the Blithe family was comparable to the Ancient Four.

Flynn was scrolling through his phone, looking at some pictures. Then, he lifted his head to look at James and said
calmly, “You’re James, the one who had a relationship with Maxine?”
James frowned.
He wanted to explain.
However, after thinking about it, he opted not to.
After all, since Flynn was currently sitting with Madelyn, there was no way James could get him to believe him.
Perhaps Mr. Gabriel had already won the Blithe family over to his side.
“Yes, I’m James. However, I must emphasize that I did not have sexual relations with Maxine. I’m not expecting you
to believe me, though.”
Flynn said coldly, “Did you know that word of the Blithe family’s political marriage with the Cadens has spread
among the ancient martial world? By having sexual relations with Maxine, are you trying to humiliate us?”
Smash!
Flynn smashed the table.
Instantly, the table collapsed.

Madelyn tried to calm Flynn down. “Quell your anger, Mr. Blithe. Maxine is simply unworthy of you.”
However, her words had the opposite effect.
Flynn’s face immediately darkened.
The ancient martial world had known of the political marriage between the Blithes and the Cadens. Now, the photos
Madelyn had taken were circulating among the circle.
He was deeply humiliated.
How would the Blithe family establish itself if it did not punish James severely?
Composed, James said calmly, “Flynn, don’t allow outsiders to sow discord among our families.”
“You’re not my teacher!” Roared Flynn, enraged. “How dare you humiliate the Blithe family?! We won’t let you off
the hook so easily. However, for Tobias’ sake, I’ll spare your life for now.”
“Get him, Genesis. Bring him back to the family. Also, tell Tobias to bring Maxine here to apologize in person,”
ordered Flynn.
Whoosh!
James could hear a gust of wind.
Before he could react, the acupuncture point on his back was struck. In an instant, his body went limp.
