After contemplating for some time, Jackson decided to side with James.
He made the decision after careful consideration.
After Delainey got permission, she immediately said, “Alright. I’ll immediately lead the disciples to the Capital and meet up with James.”
“Okay, go.”
Jackson slightly waved his hands.
Now, he could only watch James handle the situation.
“I hope you don’t let me down, James,” Jackson murmured.
…
Meanwhile, James, in the Red Flame Army base in the Capital, smiled at Nathaniel and Henry after calling Delainey.
He said, “It’s settled. The Mount Thunder Sect will send one thousand disciples to support me soon. These one thousand disciples are all martial artists and can surely stand against the Phantom Army.”
His expression darkened, and he said coldly, “If the Phantom Army dares to stop me, I’ll get rid of them.
Henry and Nathaniel looked at James.
They knew James meant business this time and that he was not just joking.
James took a deep breath and ordered, “You’re dismissed. Get ready and be prepared for action. I’ll head back first.”
After speaking, James stood up and left.
Soon, he returned home.
Maxine had already left.
Thea and Delilah were the only people at home.
Delilah was weak and had fallen asleep in her room.
Thea had nothing to do, so she sat in the gazebo of the courtyard, drinking tea leisurely.
“Honey.”
Seeing James return, she quickly stood up.
In a flash, James appeared in front of Thea and sat down beside her.
In the room, James was leaning back on the bed with his hands behind his head, staring at the ceiling in a daze.
Thea came over, took off her shoes, and climbed into bed, leaning against James’ chest.
“Don’t worry, Honey. Everything will be fine. However, you’ll have to make plans as soon as possible regardless of whether you want to be the King yourself or simply support the King.”
James could not help but cast a glance at Thea, who was lying beside him.
Thea continued, “The election is getting closer, and the factions within the Capital are slowly becoming apparent. There are several factions right now—the Gu Sect, Orient Commerce, and the current King.
“In addition to the candidates from these three factions, there are several other strong competitors.
“Which side are you on, Honey? Are you still standing on the King’s side?”
James fell into deep thought.
He simply wanted to clean up the situation, resolve the internal conflicts within Sol, and allow everyone to have a fair chance in the election rather than there be manipulated candidates.
“Thea, I really haven’t thought much about it. I simply want to resolve our nation’s internal conflict and restore peace. I want the election to be fair and square, not a puppet show controlled by other forces. After I resolve this, I’ll take my leave with these matters. I don’t want to bother with such tedious things anymore.”
Hearing this, Thea fell silent and did not say anything more.
