Chapter 1467
However, she did not refuse her father’s wishes.
James was a powerful martial artist as well as a man of outstanding character.
At least for now, she had not found any shortcomings in James.
Any woman would fall for a man like him.
She was no exception.
Whether it was for her own personal motive or for the sect, she wanted to get closer to James.
James also contemplated the idea.
Delainey made a good point.
Since Tapio was Delainey’s eldest brother and a former disciple of the Mount Thunder sect, he would surely appear
again if Delainey stayed in the Capital.
Using Delainey’s relationship with him, he could find out more about the person who had dispatched him.
Tapio was immensely powerful, so the person behind him was definitely…
James could not imagine, nor did he dare to think about it.
Thinking of these, James could not help but shudder and take a deep breath.

“I’d also like to figure out the identity of the person behind Tapio. I can tell he isn’t a cruel person.
Otherwise, Delilah would have been handed to me in a worse state. If you’re in the Capital, perhaps you could meet
him again, and we could find out the person he serves.”
Hearing this, Delainey replied ecstatically, “Then it’s settled. I’ll head back to Mount Thunder Sect to inform my
father first. I’ll meet up with you in the Capital afterward.”
“Alright.” James nodded.
“I shouldn’t delay, so I’ll head back first.”
“Go ahead.” James waved his hand to permit her to leave.
Delainey did not stay a moment longer. She got up and hurriedly left the Black Dragon Palace.
James chose to remain in the Black Dragon Palace and not leave immediately.
He waited for Delilah to wake up.
Delilah slept for a while.
When she woke up, it was already the following day.
James brought her out for breakfast, then headed to the military region to board a private plane back to the
Capital.

Before noon, James returned to the Capital.
“Delilah, do you mind staying at Thea’s place for now?”
James looked at Delilah and asked for her opinion.
“Okay.” Delilah nodded.
After getting her approval, James brought Delilah back home.
As soon as he entered the yard, he saw Thea and Maxine chatting in the gazebo.
When they saw James enter the yard, the two stood up almost in unison.
James walked over to them.
Thea glanced at Delilah and asked, “You found her? Did anything happen while you were at Mt. Thunder Pass in the
Southern Plains? Who’s the person that challenged you to a duel?”
“It’s a long story. I’ll tell you everything while we sit down.”
James sat down.
He recounted the events that happened at Mt. Thunder Pass.
“What?! The son of Mount Thunder Sect’s leader?”
Thea was baffled.
She had traveled to Mount Thunder Sect and watched the battle but was unable to identify the person who
challenged James.

Thea did not expect the challenger to be a disciple of Mount Thunder Sect.
“Yeah.”
James sighed and said, “It’s Jackson’s eldest son, Tapio. However, he left Mount Thunder Sect ten years ago and is
now serving someone else. I couldn’t find who the person behind him was, though.”
While speaking, James suddenly remembered something.
“By the way, Thea, do you remember Spiritual Art?”
“Mhm.”
Thea nodded and said, “Sir Caden taught it to me, but Maxine said that it was a fiendish technique, so I stopped
practicing it.”
James said, “The reason Jackson and Tapio fell apart was because of the Spiritual Art’s manual. Mount Thunder Sect
had kept a manual of the technique. When I fought with Tapio, he struck me with a palm attack. The attack was
unusual, so I suspect it’s the Spiritual Palm technique from the Spiritual Art manual.”
Hearing this, Thea also recalled something.
During her fierce battle against Simon, he also performed Spiritual Palm.
Back then, she was confused as to why Simon knew the technique.
Hearing James’ explanation of the events, she came to a realization.
Thomas learned the Spiritual Palm from Simon.
