Chapter 1711
As he spoke, he looked at James and asked, “Did they mention a specific location?”
James shook his head and said, “Nope.”
Sky scrutinized the map for some time before saying, “In that case, we should return for now and use a satellite map to search for the location. This shouldn’t be too hard.”
“Let me see James reached out.
Sky handed the map over to him.
However, James did not look at the map but instead stored it away, saying, “T’ll keep the map in safe custody for now. We’ll figure it out once we’ve returned.”
Sky could not care less. Even if James learned of the dragon’s whereabouts, he would not be able to slay the dragon by himself. Only by mobilizing every single martial artist from Sol could they stand a chance. After some time, a member of the Blood Race appeared with an apparatus for storing blood in his hands. James opened the equipment carefully and poured half of the dragon’s blood into Sky’s bottle. Then, he said with a smile, “Now that I’ve given you the dragon’s blood, I no longer owe you anything.”
Sky held the apparatus carefully in his hands. “D-Dragon’s blood… A-At long last, I can finally cross into the ninth rank.” His voice trembled with emotion.
James, on the other hand, only smiled faintly. Although he did not know the authenticity of the blood given to him by the Blood Race, what he gave to Sky was a fake.
“Alright now, please return to your room if there’s nothing you require of me. I need some rest. I’m a little fatigued after the fierce battle during the day.”
“Sure.”
Sky did not linger for long. He could not wait to refine the dragon’s blood.
The moment Sky left, James left his room with the real dragon’s blood in hand and headed to Thomas” room.
Thomas was sitting in a lotus position in his room.
“Grandpa…” James greeted him.
Thomas opened his eyes slightly and asked, “What’s wrong? Is something the matter?”
James hurriedly handed over the real dragon’s blood to him, saying, “Grandpa, this is the dragon’s blood given to me by the Blood Race. I will hand it over to you for safekeeping. Return to Sol and wait for me. Once I’m back, you can return the blood to me.”
“Sure.”
Thomas put the dragon’s blood away.
James did not linger for long and turned to leave.
After he left, Thomas stood up and left the room. Then, he pulled out his phone and called a number.” Retreat for now.”
James hurriedly returned to his room. After returning there, he began putting on an act by scrutinizing his own blood.
Boom!
Soon, the door of his room was blasted open.
An enraged Sky walked in. “Do you take me for a fool, James?!”
James looked at him and asked in confusion, “What’s wrong?”
“The dragon’s blood is fake.”
“Impossible!” James stood up and said, “This was given to me by the Blood Race. How can it be a fake?”
“I’m telling you the truth. Nothing happened after I consumed the entire bottle.”
“Damn it!” James cursed. “We’ve been tricked.”
“F*ck!” Sky cursed, and he exuded a terrifying aura. “Let’s settle the score with them!”
James pulled him back in time and said, “Do you have a death wish? This is the Blood Race’s territory, not to mention they have ninth-rank martial artists among them. Do you really think you stand a chance against them?”
Smash!
As he said that, he threw the bottle in his hand on the ground.
Sky asked, “What should we do now?”
James sighed. “Now that it has come to this, we have no other choice but to endure.”
