Chapter 1178

“Understood!” The people escorting Thea quickly chased after her.

Bryce looked at James and patted his shoulder, saying with a smile, “You’re pretty wise, James. You understand the

current situation and know that we’re the only ones who can protect you and Thea. Don’t worry. If you follow Mr.

Owen, he’ll protect you and the Callahans. No one will dare to touch them.”

James looked at him but said nothing in return.

He sat down on a rock and took out a cigarette.

Just as he was about to take out a lighter, Aphrodite, who was behind him, took out a lighter and quickly

approached him to light his cigarette.

James took a deep drag, and smoke billowed into the air.

“I hope Lucjan will send Thea back safely. If not, there’s no need for me to continue on with this cooperation.”

James feared nothing but Lucjan holding Thea as a hostage.

This would affect his whole plan.

Bryce replied with confidence, “Don’t worry. That’s for sure. Mr. Owen cherishes talents/ He definitely won’t make

things hard for Thea. He’ll protect her well.”

James roared, “I want her sent back to Cansington!!!”

His sudden shout took Bryce by surprise.

Bryce was stunned for a moment. Then, he quickly recollected himself and said, “Alright. I’ll inform Mr. Owen.”

Bryce took out his phone and looked at the screen. There was a signal in their current location. Although it was

weak, it was enough to send out messages.

He sent a message to Lucjan, reporting Thea’s meeting with James.

Lucjan, who was in the suburb villa in Terentville, saw Bryce’s message.

“Haha…” He laughed out loud.

“James is quite sensible and understands his situation. He knows I’m the only person who can keep him alive and

the Callahans safe.”

He wore a big smile.

James was starting to waver. After he killed a few more people, there would be no going back for him.



After sending the message, Bryce smiled and said, “I’ve notified Mr. Owen. He replied that you should rest assured

that he will safely send Thea back to Cansington.”

James sighed in relief.

As for Thea, she ran a distance and finally calmed down.

She believed James was not a heinous person who would compromise to survive.

Instead of leaving, she stayed nearby and secretly observed him.

The night passed by without anyone passing through Romsdalen Valley.

The next morning, a group of people could be seen approaching from the distance.

The group consisted of seventeen to eighteen people. All of them were martial artists dressed in white robes with

the words “martial arts” engraved on them.

Seeing the approaching group, Bryce said, “These people are from Paragon Martial Arts School. The person in the

front is the principal. He’s sixty years old and is a fourth–rank grandmaster.”

“Mhm.” James nodded lightly.

Someone from the fourth realm was not a match for him.

The group from Paragon Martial Arts School noticed James blocking the path ahead.

When he saw these people, their expressions quickly changed.

“Mr. Gerald, it’s James.”

“It’s James who killed the Mount Thunder Sect’s leader. Why is he here?”

The Principal, Gerald, waved his hand and said, “Don’t worry. Let’s go and check the situation.”

Gerald walked over and stopped twenty meters away from James.

He clasped his hands together and asked, “You must be James?”

James replied, “Yes.”

“Why are you blocking the way?”

“To kill you.”

The Paragon Martial Arts School group wore shocked expressions and backed away slightly as soon as they heard

James‘ words.
