The Almighty Dragon General

Chapter 2149
Laelia quickly left with her family.
It did not take long for them put distance between themselves and the Soul Beast Mountain Range, where the Dark Keep’s base
was located.
Laelia shed tears of joy after they left the mountain range.
“I’m so happy that you’re alright, Father. It’s fortunate nothing happened to you. The entirety Tabalham was brutally massacred. I
thought you...”
“Sobs...”
Thinking of everything she had experienced recently, Laelia began to weep.
Laelia was a princess that grew up in royalty and had never been hunted down before.
Her suppressed emotions burst out as she recalled her escort guards sacrificing themselves for her one after the other, laying in
pools of blood while she fled.
“Laelia.”
Zoe embraced her in his arms and gently comforted her, “You’ve been through a lot.’
“What’s going on, Laelia?”
“How did you get us out of the Dark Keep?”
“Did you hand over our family’s jade pendant to the Dark Keep?”
Some of her other family members surrounded her.
Only then did Laelia begin to explain everything that happened up to this point. She told them in detail about how James rescued
her while she was being pursued, how they headed to Tabalham, and finally ended up in Liberty City.
After hearing her tale, the Targwyns were at a loss for words.

Surprised, Zoe asked, “When did such a powerful young man appear in the Land of Tabal?”
Laelia explained, “Father, he’s not a cultivator from the Land of Tabal. He came from beyond our world; from Earth. He came to
the Land of Tabal in search of food supplies because Earth is experiencing natural disasters.”
“I see.”
Zoe came to a sudden realization.
At that moment, a deafening explosion sounded in the distant mountain, causing the ground to shake as if the end of the world
had arrived.
Soon, a man appeared.
It was none other than James.
James rushed over and descended from the sky, landing firmly on the ground.
“James.”
Laelia took a few steps forward.
Her family members regarded James warily. They learned from Laelia that he was a powerful man who was not of their world.
Even a powerhouse like the Dark Keep’s Master stood no chance against him.
James approached with a smile and said, “I’vedestroyed the Dark Keep. From today onward, the Dark Keep no longer exists in
the Land of Tabal.”
“Thank you, Sir.”
Zoe walked over with a grateful smile and said, “My family would’ve been doomed if it weren’t for your help, Mr. Caden.”
James slightly waved his hand and said, “I’m doing it for myself too. I saved your family in exchange for food. Now that the Dark
Keep has been destroyed, when will I be able to collect the food?”
Zoe immediately replied, “There’s no need to rush. After we head back to Tabalham and repair the city, I’ll immediately order my
people to gather provisions from all over the country for you.”

“James, where’s my jade pendant?”
Laelia looked at James expectantly.
James was taken aback.
He indeed had the jade pendant and should have returned it to Laelia long ago. However, he wanted it for himself and had not
handed it back to her. He thought she would have forgotten about it by now and did not expect her to bring it up.
After a brief shock, he took out the Targwyn’s heirloom jade pendant from the Celestial Abode and handed it back to Laelia.
“Here you go. I was keeping it safe for you.”
“Thanks.”
After returning the jade pendant, Laelia’s pretty face beamed with gratitude.
James simply stayed silent.
Although he wanted the jade pendant, it was not rightfully his and belonged to the Targwyn family.
“Let’s head back first,” said Zoe.
“Alright.” James nodded.
The group confidently left the mountain.
