The Almighty Dragon General

Chapter 1316
Almost three months had passed since the Mount Thunder Conference. Those who had obtained the Spirit Turtle’s core should
have finished refining it and were about to emerge from hiding to wreak havoc on Sol. Meanwhile, there were only around six
months left until the election in October. James would have to resolve everything before then.
The women looked at James in anticipation. James, on the other hand, catalyzed Ataraxia and suppressed his desire. Looking at
them, he said, “I’m worried that the Capital will descend into chaos. I should leave Cansington and head to the Capital
immediately.”
“So soon?”
Quincy was dismayed.
Although James was here for the past two months, he had been in closed–door meditation the entire time and would frequently
abstain from eating. There were few opportunities for them to spend time together, so Quincy wanted to use this chance to at
least have a meal with him. However, she did not expect him to leave in such a hurry.
“Mhm.” James stood up and said, “It’s been more than two months, and I don’t know the situation in the Capital. I have to head
there as soon as possible.”
“Alright, then.” Quincy did not protest. She stood up and fixed James‘ crooked collar. Looking at him with a caring expression,
she said, “Although I’ve never been to the Capital and know nothing about the situation there, I suspect that the situation will be
grimmer than anticipated. Be mindful to be on your guard at all times.”
As she fixed James‘ clothing and looked at him with such warmth and care, James had the urge to embrace her. His arms were
near Quincy’s waist. However, he suppressed the desire at the most critical moment.
“I will.”
James pulled back his arms. Then, after saying his goodbyes, he opened the door and left.
Once he left Cynthia’s house, he pulled his phone out and called the Blithe King.
“Hello there, James. I haven’t heard from you for the past two months, but I heard that you aren’t back in the Capital yet. What
are you busy with?” the Blithe King said.

James replied, “I’ve been in closed–door meditation for the past two months and have not been in contact with the outside world.
Now, I need to hurry over to the Capital. Please arrange a private plane for me.”
The Blithe King said, “Sure, no problem.”
After hanging up the phone, James headed over to the military region. At the same time, he called Thea.
In a courtyard in the Capital...
It was a courtyard purchased by Thea after arriving in the Capital. She had been residing there for the past two months.
Just as she was resting on the sofa, her phone rang. Upon noticing that it was her husband who called, she answered the call
and greeted in a tender voice, “Darling.”
James asked, “Thea, why didn’t you contact me at all for the past two months? How’s the situation in the Capital now?”
Thea replied, “It’s complicated. Darling, have you refined the Spirit Turtle’s core? Also, have you left your closed–door
meditation?”
“Yes, I have. I’m now heading over to the military region to take a private plane to the Capital.”
Thea looked at the time. It was already 11 p.m. James would need two hours to arrive in the Capital from
Cansington.
“I’ll tell you more about it when you arrive.”
“Got it.”
James hung up the phone. Meanwhile, Thea casually tossed her phone aside.
Knock! Knock! Knock!
A knock came on the door.
“Come in,” Thea said as her face turned cold.
Then, a man opened the door and walked in. Wearing a black overcoat and a hideous–looking mask, he knelt on the floor.

“Master.”
