Chapter 1598

“Sigh…”

Callan sighed deeply.

He was slightly crestfallen upon hearing news of Lucjan’s demise. Callan was once the Sect Leader of the Gu Sect,

and he swore to avenge his fallen comrades during the battle against the Gu Sect. Even now, deep down, he still

held a grudge. Sometimes, he thought about continuing his revenge. However, his resolve had wavered. He

thought of Lucjan as a confidant. Although he betrayed him in the end, he understood his reason for doing so.

“What’s wrong?” Upon seeing Callan’s melancholic expression, James asked.

“It’s nothing.”

Callan shook his head slightly and said, “By the way, what do you plan to do next?”

James said, “Now that I have regained control of Crucifier, I should return at once to save Thea. Maxine’s injuries

are grave too. They need my help.”

“Mhm.”

Callan nodded and said, “In that case, you should return at once. I will remain at Divine Sword Villa for a few more

days. After all, the First Blood Emperor and Ezekiel managed to slip through your grasp. I’m worried they will be

back soon.”

“I’m running out of time. I will depart at once.”

“Get going, then.” Callan waved.

James stood up and left after informing the owner of Divine Sword Villa.

He went to the place where he got off the plane and headed to the military region with a helicopter. Then, he

boarded a plane inbound for the Capital. By daybreak, he had arrived at the military region of the Red Flame Army.

He did not return home but instead headed to the Cadens’ residence. That was because Maxine was in a much

more precarious situation. Although Thea’s injuries were equally as grave, she should be fine for now. So, he

decided to save Maxine first.

By the time he arrived at the Cadens’ residence, it was already eight in the morning.

In a room in the Cadens’ courtyard….

Maxine was lying on the bed while wearing a white dress.

“Did everything go well?” Bennett asked.



“Mhm.”

James nodded and said, “Things went fairly smoothly, I’d say. I annihilated Lucjan, the Sect Leader of the Gu Sect,

and took back the Blade of Justice and Crucifier. Now that the Gu Sect is leaderless, I will

annihilate them all once I’ve saved Maxine.”

“Quick, save her. Her condition is rather serious.”

“Got it.”

James approached Maxine Looking at her pale face, he took out Crucifier from under his sleeve. After disinfecting it

with True Energy, he grabbed a needle and imbued it with True Energy.

At that moment, the needle began glimmering.

James flawlessly inserted the needle into Maxine’s forehead. Then, he grabbed the second needle. Soon, all eighty-

one needles were inserted.

Maxine’s body began shivering. At the same time, a warm current flowed throughout her body and healed her

gravely injured body.

After approximately twenty minutes, she regained consciousness.

James began extracting the needles.

“Th-Thank you, James.”

Maxine said with great difficulty. Though she tried to get up, she could not exert even a single ounce of strength.

James waved slightly and said, “You’re still too weak at the moment. Lie down and rest. I’ll be here to insert the

needles once more after a few days. By then, you should be completely recovered.”

“How magical…” Bennett exclaimed, “Though we the Cadens pride ourselves as practitioners of medicine for

generations, I could do nothing to cure her injuries. To think that a few needles from you would do the trick!”

James smiled faintly.

This was only the tip of the iceberg of what Crucifier could do.
