Chapter 1760
Thea had a flashback to when she first reencountered James.
James brought her to the House of Royals and treated her wounds. She remembered how he meticulously took
care of her.
“Wedding? Will that day ever come?”
Thea’s face filled with sadness.
Sky said James was dead.
She knew James was likely dead but kept deceiving herself.
Henry consoled her, “Thea, that day will surely come. I believe James isn’t dead yet. He’s surely alive.” 1
Thea wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes and took a deep breath to compose her thoughts. Then, she
replied, “Please help me settle the matter on the high-tech weapons as soon as possible. I’ll be heading out next
Monday.”
“Mhm. I’ll do my best.”
After making the request to Henry, Thea left.
Meanwhile, Henry quickly left Cansington and headed back to the Capital.

One day later…
Tyrus reunited with the Prince of Orchid Mountain in the underground palace deep within the Southern Plain’s
forest.
“Father, many major events have occurred recently. Rumors are saying that James is dead.”
“What?” Langston stared at Tyrus.
“He’s dead?”
“Yeah.”
Tyrus explained, “It was reported by Sky. He headed overseas with James, but only Sky returned from the journey.
Sky said there was a person who lived for more than one thousand three hundred years on an overseas island. This
person was a ninth-ranked grandmaster, and he was incredibly powerful. James somehow antagonized him and
was killed as a result.”
Langston calmed himself down and asked, “Anything else?”
Tyrus continued. “The other news is that Thea has absorbed the phoenix’s blood and has become significantly
stronger. Although she hasn’t reached the ninth rank yet, in her maddened state, her strength can surpass the
Skyward Stairway’s Ninth Stair and enter the pre-ninth rank. She has also become the Great Grandmaster of the

whole martial community.
“There’s also one more thing. That is, Thea will be leading martial artists from all over the world to slay the dragon
next Monday.”
Hearing this, Langston stood up abruptly and started stretching his limbs.
“I never expected a ninth-ranked grandmaster to be hidden overseas. Things are becoming more interesting. It
seems there will be many immortals in Sol after the dragon is slain. It won’t be long before more ninth-ranked
grandmasters appear. It’s time I head outside and make an appearance.” 1
“Father, are you going to leave the mountain?” Tyrus said excitedly.
“Mhm.”
Langster nodded gently and said, “I’ve lived in seclusion here for so many years, and it’s getting a little lonely. It’s
time I head outside to meet the Omniscient Deity and the Blood Race’s immortal.”
“Huff!”
Tyrus took a deep breath.
The world was bound to be turned upside down after his father left the mountain.
Back when his father was a prince, he failed to win the fight for power. Thus, he embarked on a martial art journey.
Although thousands of years had passed, his father’s dream of becoming the ruler had never changed. After his
father had gathered powerful martial artists from across the globe and was prepared to overthrow the king of the

past, he discovered the Omniscient Deity’s existence.
So, he feigned his death. Over the years, he had stayed in seclusion within the mountain and rarely walked outside.
The outside world was about to face a huge storm now that his father was preparing to leave the mountain.
“Father, what’s the first thing you plan to do after leaving this place?” asked Tyrus.
Langston smiled and said, “Naturally, I’m going to the island to watch the martial artists of this generation slay the
dragon.”
“Do you plan to secretly help them?”
“Of course not. The dragon’s blood is a rare treasure, but the Dragon’s Essence is even more valuable than that. If I
can obtain the Dragon Essence, my strength will climb to even greater heights.”
“Then, I shall congratulate you in advance.”
Langston did not respond anymore. With his hands behind his back, he left the dark and damp underground palace.
It was Monday in the blink of an eye.
These few days, Henry had been working very hard.
He met up with the old King and gained his support to convince the new King and some bigwigs of the military
department. Ultimately, he was able to obtain some lethal high-tech weapons.
