The Almighty Dragon General

Chapter 1197

'Why is Maxine trying to kill me?’

James was puzzled.

He believed that this was unusual of her.

Maxine was an intelligent woman and would tackle a problem from all aspects. If even Maxine believed that he had turned evil, that meant he had successfully fooled the world.

However, he dismissed those thoughts. Maxine must be up to something. However, he could not figure her out at the moment.

"D-Darling, please tell me that everything I saw was just a pretense. There must be more to things, right?” Thea looked at James pleadingly.

"It’s a long story."

Since they were alone, James told Thea the whole truth.

"After arriving at the Mount Thunder Sect, Lucjan ordered me to assassinate Jackson Cabral, Sect Leader of the Mount Thunder Sect. I had no choice. However, I didn't actually kill him for real. As I knew that the Mount Thunder Sect was filled with spies from the Gu Sect, I offered to cooperate with Jackson after defeating him."
