Chapter 845 

The four masked men in black robes were secretly stalling for time. 

James recognized this and knew it was the perfect opportunity to set his plans into action. Once Kennedy catches his breath, it would be nigh impossible for James to kill the Emperor. 

“Search the premises.” 

Clutching the Blade of Justice, James charged toward the center of the courtyard. 

Gravely injured from the earlier counterattack, Kennedy’s henchwomen lay helplessly on the ground. They were unable to assist him. 

 

Seeing the fully-armed Black Dragon Army, the Johnstons’ guards were conflicted. If they continued standing in their path, the Black Dragon Army would certainly turn them into swiss cheese. The best course of action was to lay low and wait for the storm to pass. At the end of the day, these guards valued their own lives.

The Emperor rested quietly in the room. 

He was fully aware of the chaos that had befallen the 

estate outside the room. 

Though he knew that James had come bringing the might of the Black Dragon Army, he was unafraid. Ultimately, he was still a Johnston. Even though this was not the family’s headquarters, he would be safe as long as the sect elder was willing to protect him. If the King himself was unwilling to move against him, why would he be afraid of a nobody like James. 

He winced as he grasped his chest. His injuries had not yet recovered. Everything that had happened recently only served to exacerbate and worsen his injuries. 

Trying to channel some strength into his voice, he called out for one of his men. 

The door opened, and a servant walked in and asked respectfully, “Is something of concern, sir?”
