Chapter 1470
Graydon stood with a dazed look for a few seconds before the situation sunk in for him.
He glanced at James and chortled haughtily, “Are you kidding me, James?”
In response to Graydon’s incredulous statement, James let out a smug chuckle.
He smiled brightly and said, “Henceforth, you’re no longer the deputy commander of the Red Flame Army.” “Haha...”
This time, Graydon laughed in response.
“James, have you not understood the situation yet? Although you’re the commander of the Red Flame Army, you’re just
occupying an empty seat. Who can you command in the Red Flame Army? Which of these soldiers will listen to your orders? In
the Capital, you no longer have the authority to enforce the law.”
Graydon was well apprised of the situation in the Capital.
The Capital had been divided into several factions.
However, among these factions, none of them stood by James’ side.
“You think too highly of yourself, James. Just because you’re the Dragon King and commander of the Red Flame Army, you
foolishly think you can do as you please and deal with whomever you like. I’m telling you, there’s no one you can touch in the
Capital.”
Graydon spoke arrogantly.
After speaking, he turned around and left discourteously.
His defiant attitude incensed James.
James eyes narrowed and glittered darkly. His rage was barely contained.
“Henry,” he shouted.
Henry walked in from outside the door. Upon seeing James’ dour expression, he said powerlessly,”
James, you see. He’s only the deputy commander but is acting in such a disgraceful manner. If the others were to follow suit, the
situation would only get more troublesome.”
“Get ready. This ends now.”
James could not let this insubordination slide any longer.
These people were lawless.
The Capital did not belong to just one person. It was the city of the people of Sol.
In the Capital, no sole person had the right to make decisions.
The people of Sol had the final say.
Henry asked, “How are you going to take action?”
“We’re going to start by cleaning up the Red Flame Army first. Call in General Carlson for me.” “Alright.”
Henry turned around and left immediately.
After a few minutes, Henry returned with Nathaniel.
James was unfamiliar with Nathaniel, but he seemed like a virtuous man and was willing to provide. information about all the
personnel in the army. James had kept the documents with him.
“Emperor.”
Nathaniel walked into the room, straightened up, and raised his right hand, saluting James.
“That’s enough.”
James waved his hand, pointed to the sofa beside him in the lounge area, and said, “Sit.”
Nathaniel walked over and sat down.
Henry sat beside him.
Nathaniel looked at James and said, “Emperor, did you call me because something is amiss?”
James steepled his fingers and said, “Of course. I’m planning to take action.”
“Huh? Take action?”
Nathaniel was shocked.
“Yeah.”
James nodded and said, “The information you gave me previously also contained some information about Graydon. Now that
he’s the deputy commander of the Red Flame Army, I’ll start with him.”
“Emperor, I implore you to reconsider your decision.”
Nathaniel fretted, “This isn’t a situation you can take lightly. Everything in the Capital is currently in disarray. Several factions
have emerged and joined forces. If you take action...”
Bang!
James slammed his palms onto the table, stood up angrily, and roared, “So what if I take action against him? I’d love to see who
would dare to oppose my decision!”
“But, the Phantom Army...”Nathaniel’s face was pale and his expression was rather severe.
Nathaniel was also aware of the Phantom Army’s existence.
They were no ordinary army and were primarily composed of ancient martial artists.
He was worried the Phantom Army would step up to stop James from laying down the law.
“Emperor, if you take action now, the Phantom Army will surely try to stop you. The Phantom Army isn’t
composed of regular citizens. They’re all powerful martial artists, and each one of them can take on several of our best soldiers
at once. How do you plan for this to succeed?”
“I’ll figure out the details.”
James rubbed his temples.
Even ancient martial artists joined the fray now.
