The Almighty Dragon General

Gladwin was not expecting James to be so straightforward. He laughed and said, "You're quite forthright, aren't you? I'll cut to the
chase. If you two return to the Timaeus Sect and work with me, I can offer you three benefits. You can choose either one."
James smiled but said nothing. Meanwhile, Lyla seemed utterly uninterested.
Gladwin suppressed his smile and said seriously, "The first offer is the position as the Great Protector and law enforcement
elder. You can control the sect's internal affairs and dominate the Genesis Words with your strengths.
"The second offer is that I can provide you with enough resources and give all my support if you decide to create your own force.
"Lastly, you can rejoin Mount Martialis and become its master. I will also give my full support."
James looked at Gladwin, not masking his disappointment in the offers.
He seemed to be giving great benefits, but he was making sure they were still under him and could be used at his disposal.
Gladwin could sense James' disappointment, so he quickly smiled and said, "Of course, we can still negotiate this. There's no
need to rush..."
James nodded and said, "Sure, but talking while separated by a barrier doesn't seem sincere. How about you come inside, and
we chat over drinks?"
Gladwin was silent.
James put on a harmless expression and said, "You're already at the Quasi Daeclon Rank. Are you terrified two weaklings like
us can hurt you?"
Gladwin coughed in embarrassment and said, "I've never had any grievances with the two of you, nor do I hold any grudges. I
simply admire your talents, that's why—"
"That's why I'm inviting you inside," James interrupted him, saying, "The Forladtt Land contains countless treasures. Not just
anyone can come inside as they please."
"I." Gladwin was put on the spot.
Before he could finish his sentence, a loud noise came from the sky.

Gladwin raised his head, and his face darkened. Then, he said angrily, "She is causing trouble again. There's no end to it. Let's
talk next time. I have to deal with this first."
After speaking, Gladwin transformed into a golden light and rushed toward the Daemon Prison.
James said disappointedly, "What a pity. I must've pushed him too much. It would've been great if I could've gotten him into the
Forladtt Land."
Lyla was speechless after seeing James' wicked expression.
Not only did he imprison the Timaeus Sect's Saint and herself, but he also wanted Gladwin, a powerhouse at the Quasi Daeclon
Rank.
James looked toward the Daemon Prison and asked, “Why is he so nervous? What kind of being appeared in the prison?"
Lyla replied coldly, "It's the Dark Heavenly Path. She has been constantly coming to the Daemon Prison. Each time, fierce
battles would break out She had been growing stronger every time she visited. At the same time, she's been rescuing a lot of
Dark Beings. It seems Gladwin had become her sparring partner."
James was surprised by the information. Thea had not yet mastered the Dark Heavenly Path, but she was already so powerful.
He thought, 'Can't you slow down a little, Darling? You're making me feel incompetent.'
James said excitedly, "Let's go watch?"
Lyla immediately stopped him, saying, "Don't. She's a demon without morals now. She has been specifically absorbing
powerhouses at the Yuraeceon Daelm Rank's Ninth Tribulation. She has already devoured about ten recently.
"Moreover, Gladwin is in the Daemon Prison. Once we leave, he might never be able to return."
Thea was incredibly powerful. James felt shivers down his spine after recalling the two elderly cultivators he encountered in the
Forladtt Land.
