The Almighty Dragon General

Chapter 1323
James stood up and said smilingly, “I’ll be taking my leave. Call me if there’s anything.”
Callan stood up and sent James off.
After James left Callan’s residence, he headed straight to the Cadens‘ residence.
Soon, he arrived at the gates of the Cadens.
Upon seeing James, the guards froze before recollecting themselves and greeted him respectfully,” Emperor.”
Back then, the Cadens–including the servants, guards, and others–looked down on James. Ever since the Mount Thunder
Conference, James‘ name and prestige had spread far and wide in the ancient martial world. No one dared dismiss him as an
insignificant nobody anymore.
“Is Maxine here?”
“The family head is currently outside.”
“Alright then, I’ll wait inside.”
James walked straight into the Cadens‘ courtyard. At the same time, he pulled his phone out and called Maxine.
At that moment, Maxine was at a business conference in the Capital.
Seeing that James called her, she smiled brightly and answered the call, “Hello, James.”
“Congratulations on becoming the family head, Maxine,” James said while smiling.
“It’s all thanks to the Grand Patriarch.” Maxine smiled sweetly. Then, she asked, “Have you left closed- door meditation?”
“Yes, I’m now at the Cadens‘ household in the Capital. I have something I wish to discuss with you.”
“Alright, I’ll return at once.”
Hearing that James was in the Cadens‘ household in the Capital, Maxine left the business conference immediately and returned
home.

In just half an hour, Maxine was back. She was wearing a black overcoat and a white tight sweater inside. Her long hair was tied
up which revealed her forehead.
Upon seeing Maxine, James froze.
Although Maxine was always intelligent and shrewd, she gave him the impression of a pitiful figure. Now, she exuded the
charisma of a queen.
“James.” A smile crept up on Maxine’s face.
“Mhm.” James nodded.
Maxine walked over to him and took a seat. A servant immediately served them tea.
Looking at James, Maxine asked, “James, have your injuries recovered?”
“Yes, they have.” James nodded and said, “Maxine, I have something I wish to discuss with you.” “What is it?”
James asked, “How are the businesses of the Cadens doing in the outside world?”
He knew little about the business dealings of the Cadens with the outside world. He only heard that the Ancient Four was
insanely rich.
“They are doing fine, I guess,” Maxine said. “The Cadens are effectively a mega–conglomerate. We have many subsidiary
companies involved in all sectors of society.”
Upon hearing this, James was relieved. He said, “Next, I plan to make a move against some powerful figures and families of Sol.
Many businesses will have to close down. I don’t want the national economy to be affected by this. And so, I need someone to
properly deal with the situation. The Cadens are the only ones that came to mind. As the family head of the Cadens, it’s only
natural that I consult with you.”
“Sure thing.”
Maxine flashed a bright smile. After becoming the family head, she had announced that the Cadens would now be involved with
the outside world.

She recollected herself. She knew that James‘ future actions would implicate many rich and powerful people. The Cadens alone
would not be able to deal with the situation effectively.
“James, although the Cadens are formidable, I don’t think we can completely stabilize the situation. We have to work with
conglomerates with a clean background. Otherwise, should something unexpected happen during the implementation, all hell will
break loose. Many people will be unemployed and shouldered with heavy debts. I think we should review the situation calmly
and refrain from acting recklessly.”
“What’s your opinion on the matter?” James asked.
