The Almighty Dragon General

The Almighty Dragon General Chapter 5940
Everyone's attention was on Lyla. Her one word could decide the outcome of the situation,
Lyla raised her head, took a deep breath, and said, “Apologize and compensate them, Mr. Zared."
Zared was dumbstruck. He mumbled surprisedly, "Elder Lyla..."
Before he could finish his sentence, Lyla cast him a cold glance.
He immediately averted his eyes. Then, he gritted his teeth and said, "You're something, young man. Fine. I'm sorry for this
matter."
James said calmly, "No. I'm not the only one you should apologize to. You must apologize to Mount Martialis and also
compensate my friends."
Zared growled, "My son is in a bad condition because of you."
Thea interrupted and said, "He asked for it. Forty-nine isn't even acquainted with him. He started ridiculing Mount Martialis's
disciples first. He mocked and humiliated them in various ways. Even going as far as to make an arrogant bet with them."
As soon as Thea brought up the bet, the surrounding living beings began to whisper and point fingers.
Anyone with discerning eyes could easily determine who caused the incident. Zared was the master of Mount Elixir, a
powerhouse at the Yuraeceon Daelm Rank's Ninth Tribulation. Yet, he indiscriminately abused his power and wanted to punish
others without finding out the truth. Ultimately, he lost the battle and humiliated himself.

Hearing the condescending discussion around him, Zared immediately realized his stupid son had dug a grave for them.
The cultivator from Mount Martialis had a weak cultivation base. However, the Yuraeceon Genesis Bell chose him as its master.
That was enough to prove how much potential he had. Not only could he withstand the aura and attacks of a powerhouse at the
Yuraeceon Daelm Rank's Ninth Tribulation, but he could absorb one's Genesis by striking the Yuraeceon Genesis Bell.
The fear and pain of being trapped inside the Yuraeceon Genesis Bell was still fresh in Zared's memories.
Naturally, James only succeeded because he had the help of two powerhouses at the Yuraeceon Daelm Rank. Otherwise, even
with his Golden Body, he would have zero chances against Zared.
Even so, the results were beyond everyone's expectations. Perthacus, who had always been the cowardly and incompetent
leader of Mount Martialis, actually stood up and fought for Forty-nine.
The mysterious saintess of Mount Martialis, Lucille, also took the initiative to fight alongside Forty-nine.
With Zared's strength, he was not afraid of them. However, the Timaeus Sect's Saintess was a powerful existence he feared.
It would be fine if he had won the battle. He could have easily made an excuse before the sect leader. However, he had lost so
embarrassingly, and things were out of his control.
To make matters worse, the most terrifying and ruthless elder of the Timaeus Sect, Lyla, was present. Besides the sect leader
and a few older seniors, nobody would dare to stand up against her. If he were to offend her, Mount Elixir would be in danger.
After weighing the consequences, Zared made a reluctant decision to compromise and do as they asked.
“Alright. I'll apologize to Mount Martialis and make necessary compensations. However, you must release my son."

James shook his head and said, "I can't let him go yet. He must come with me and fulfill his end of the bet."
Zared said furiously, "You're going overboard, Forty-nine!
James refuted, "I'm merely acting according to the rules of our bet. What do you mean I'm going overboard? He initiated the bet
but can't keep it?"
Zared said coldly, "Fine! Give me a price! How many elixirs do I have to give you to redeem him? Mount Elixir can afford
whatever you ask!"
James snorted, "No. He must uphold his bet. You apologize and make the compensation. There isn't any room for negotiations."
Faced with James' stubbornness, Zared was inwardly fuming. However, he was disadvantaged and had no control over the
situation.
