Quintus paused, then nodded with a smile.
“Human?” Thea asked again.
Quintus’ face twitched. “Young Lady, do you mean to discriminate against us living beings like those Alcide beings do? Don’t forget, your husband is also a human.”
Thea chuckled upon seeing his near outburst. “Why are you so anxious? I didn’t say anything about you being a living being or a human.”
“You…” Quintus was about to speak when Emperor Qadeer interrupted him with a wave.
He turned to Thea and asked with a smile, “Yin governor, although you are an Alcide being, you have never looked down on or bullied living beings. You have even shown kindness to them. That’s why we treat you differently from other Alcide beings.”
“Is that so?” Thea smiled slightly. “Is that why, during the gathering, instead of stoking hatred and seeking justice for the dignity of all living beings, you put on a self-pity act?”
Thea’s words cut sharply. Even Emperor Qadeer, with his thick skin and deep scheming, found it hard to maintain his composure.
Quintus frowned and asked, “Yin governor, what are you trying to say?”
“Whether it’s living beings or Alcide beings, I don’t want to get involved,” Thea said as she picked up her teacup again. “I only care about my husband. When will you release him?”
Emperor Qadeer, Quintus, and Quentyn exchanged glances.
After a while, Emperor Qadeer smiled slightly as he held his teacup. “Yin governor, you should cooperate with us if you truly care about your husband.
“You are now the Young Lady of the Wyrmscale Source. If you lead the Wyrmscale Source to assist me, I can sign a soul contract with you right here, ensuring that you and your husband attain high status and enjoy the reverence of all living beings forever.
Thea glanced at the furious Quintus and then said calmly, “Emperor Qadeer, can you control your dog?”
“You...” Quintus started again.
“Quintus,” Emperor Qadeer interrupted once more. He turned to Thea and said, “You should know, that both you and your husband will suffer if we fail. Facing Lord Goyo’s faction alone, you stand no chance of winning.”
Thea stood up slowly and smiled. “You want to enter the Gate of Mystery, right? Discuss it with my husband first, and then decide.”
With that, she turned to leave. At that moment, Quintus unleashed the Bohnwer Light to seal the palace door.
Thea stopped and turned back. Her expression was cold. “Do you want to use this trick on me too?”

The readers' comments on the novel: The Almighty Dragon General
"Good things take time" Lol yeah, a hundred and fifty trillion years, apparently....
How was Sheldon Jame's first disciple? Wasn't the Black Eagle King the first? Where has he disappeared to all this time?...
Unbelievable... I thought James was rid of the annoying "honey, darling" Thea by going to the Demonic Realm, but now she's gone there too *puke*...
This Thea is the most narcissistic woman of all, constantly interrupting James's cultivation, getting in the way of his plans and slowing him down. He was well rid of her but the author went bonkers a few hundred chapters into the story and decided to pair her back with James.. Yuck!...
Thea doesn't deserve James, it so sad he loves her...
Thank you so much for all the effort. I love all the stories I've read. I hope to continue reading "The Almighty Dragon General" story. 😊...
