Chapter 1098
He looked at James and reprimanded him, "James, is it true that you've stolen the paintings of the other three
families and unraveled the secret behind them?"
Tobias was also curious to know how James managed to become this powerful in such a short amount of time.
However, James refused to tell him the truth.So, he was using this opportunity to pressure him into spilling the
beans.
James thought long and hard about it.
He knew that the Cadens would not shield him from the Johnstons’ Grand Patriarch if he did not provide a
satisfactory explanation.
"No."
After brief contemplation, he said, "When I was imprisoned in the Johnstons’ dungeon, I came across a man by the
name of Spencer Johnston.As he knew he wouldn't be able to live for long, he imparted his True Energy to me and

"Also, the elderly man who defeated Donovan Blithe, the Patriarch of the Blithes, at Mount Littleroot was me in
disguise.That's also how I came to learn the Blithe Fist of Abomination."
James told them the whole truth.
Now that his strength was known to all, there was no point in hiding anymore.
Once he spoke the whole truth, the Cadens would shield him from the Grand Patriarch of the Johnstons.
After all, even though he crippled Hades, it was Hades who made the first move.
Tobias looked at Yaakov and said smilingly, "That was how it went.He didn’t learn any martial art skill from the
paintings.Everyone knows about what happened on Mount Littleroot a month ago.Many martial artists of the
Johnstons were present too.You can easily verify the authenticity of his words."
Yaakov’s face darkened.He had come here personally to apply pressure on the Cadens to give up on James.
Now, however, he no longer had the leverage.
"You said that Spencer Blithe imparted his True Energy to you.But, how could you withstand such potent and
concentrated True Energy? Your body would’ve exploded on the spot.Are you taking me for a fool?"
Before James could speak, Tobias hurriedly explained, "To be honest with you, when James was here treating his
injuries after being crippled by the Johnstons, he used a rather special technique.By borrowing my True Energy, he
forcibly opened all his meridians.As he was already near the fifth rank by that time, he immediately made a
breakthrough once imbued with powerful True Energy."
"Hmph!"
Yaakov stood up and left.
Before he stepped out of the front door, he paused and turned to look at Tobias and James.
"We'll settle the grudge between our families at the Mount Thunder Conference."
Leaving this ruthless remark, he left.
Tobias breathed a sigh of relief.
Looking at James, who was sitting in a lotus position, he asked, "Are you alright?"
James shook his head slightly.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"I’m fine."
He had learned many cultivation methods that cured injuries from the Medical Book.
As such, such a minor injury was of no consequence to him.
Tobias took a seat.
Meanwhile, after some regulation of his body condition, James stood up. Tobias asked, "Did Spencer Blithe really
teach you everything he knew about the Blithe Fist of Abomination?"
Hearing this, James looked at Tobias.
Maxine had told him that Tobias was still bitter about losing to the Blithe Fist of Abomination twenty years ago.
"Ves,"
He did not deny it.
Tobias stood up and patted James’ back.
"James, you have potential.All this while, I’ve been trying to nurture you as a Patriarch of the household.Not only did
I treat your injuries, but I even allowed you to cultivate the family’s signature martial art skill.I have long heard of
the renowned Blithe Fist of Abomination.Surely a principled man like you would share what you’ve learned with
me?"
