The Almighty Dragon General

Chapter 1161
Only after Quincy and the rest had been sent back to Cansington did James feel slightly more relaxed.
He believed that Lucjan would no longer threaten him with the lives of others since he had already consumed the Soul Eating
Pill.
Lucjan too was incredibly confident that James would continue to work for him.
Lucjan stared at James in the villa with admiration and said, "I really like you, James. You're a very rare gem and you've
achieved such great strength at a young age. In a few more decades, you'll be practically invincible. With you by my side, well be
able to usher in a new era of unprecedented prosperity!”
James asked calmly, "I have no idea what the Gu Sect's objective is. Would you care to enlighten me about it?"
“Is that so?”
Lucjan looked at James and replied with a smile, "Most people chase strength and power throughout their lives. It's simply
human nature to be greedy and stand at the top of the world. If it weren't, there wouldn't have been so many wars in the past.”
"Are you guys trying to conquer the world?" James squinted at Lucjan.
"Haha!"
Lucjan smiled and did not bother to explain.
"James, you won't regret becoming one of my men. I plan to kill the Supreme Leader during the Mount Thunder Conference and
a few other prominent figures of the Gu Sect to take over the Mount Thunder Sect.
When the time comes, you'll be the deputy captain only below me but above tens of thousands of people.”
James smiled lightly, "I've already achieved what you're offering me, so why should I take the risk?"
"You killed Jackson and offended Mount Thunder Sect, Mr. Lee, and the King. They're not going overlook your actions any
longer."
Speaking of Mr. Lee, James’ curiosity was piqued, and he could not help asking, "Who exactly is Mr. Lee?"

James knew about his existence and that he had been working with the King since long ago.
30 years ago, he was the person that orchestrated everything and the cause of countless events that gave the current King the
power he had. Despite having known about him for so long, he was still clueless about Mr. Lee’s real identity and background let
alone know about his motives.
Lucjan continued to smile at James as he spoke candidly "He's a powerful martial artist and also an outstanding politician and
tactician. For decades, he's always hidden behind the scenes and assisted the King in rapidly developing Sol. As for his
identity..."
Lucjan paused for a while and continued. "Back then, there were four powerful men that stood with the King. They were called
Sky, Earth, Wind, and Thunder. However, these brilliant men were already more than a hundred years old back then. They're
probably long dead now.
"As for Mr. Lee, he was a high-achieving apprentice nicknamed the Sky Saint and had inherited Sky's martial techniques. His
strength is unknown since he rarely involves himself in fights. However, since Sky had favored him, he's definitely someone who
has great potential. Dozens of years have passed since then, so he definitely lies somewhere around the rank of a seventh-rank
grandmaster. I don't think he has reached the eighth rank yet since breaking into that rank is astoundingly difficult.”
Lucjan gave James a thorough explanation of Mr. Lee's background. He was the disciple of the leader of the four brilliant men
that supported the King. His full name was Asher Lee.
James listened carefully.
Although he had a brief understanding of the past events, he did not have all the details on the people who were involved.
All he knew was that the former Great Grandmaster was Mount Thunder Sect's leader and about the head of the Mavericks,
Callan Maverick.
As for the others, he had never heard of them before.
Lucjan suddenly changed the topic and asked, "James, you're a soldier, so you should know that you'll get beaten up if you fall
behind. Let me ask you a question. Let's pretend that Sol has been at war for a long time, and you possess military power. After
finally winning the war, many civilians suffered injuries, and countless lives were lost. Would you still seize the chance to destroy
the enemy's country and avenge the fallen soldiers and civilians?"

James was taken aback by his question.
He never expected such a question from Lucjan.
After thinking about it for a while, James did not have a definite answer.
If he was in the Southern Plains and had dealt with an enemy invasion that led to countless casualties, he would definitely send
troops to attack the enemy and avenge them.
An enemy that offended Sol would have to be punished no matter how far away they were.
This was the basic principle of a soldier.
A soldier's duty was to defend their country.
