Chapter 1612
“By the way…
James was reminded of Thea’s request.
Looking at Quincy, he asked, “What are the current requirements for joining New Era?”
Quincy replied, “The requirements are rather strict. Only companies that have a market value of fifty billion dollars
and above are qualified for the application process. Not only that, but we even have a professional team to audit
their accounts. Only businesses with a healthy cash flow can pass the preliminary round.”
James nodded and said, “Here’s the case. The Callahans wish to join New Era Commerce. Could you do something
about that?”
Quincy said smilingly, “The chamber of commerce belongs to you, James. I’m only a manager helping you. Your
word has the final say.”

“If there’s nothing else, I’ll be taking my leave. I’ll arrange for someone to send Xavion here in secret. However, be
mindful that Xavion should be kept out of the public eye for now, or else he might be in danger.”
“I see…” After thinking for a moment, Quincy said, “In that case, I’ll head over to the Cadens’ residence
and have a discussion with him.”
“That works too.”
After the brief conversation, James returned home.
Upon returning home, Thea walked over to him and asked, “Did everything go smoothly?”
“Yes, it did. I told Quincy about the Callahans’ matter, and she’s willing to turn a blind eye.”
James leaned on the sofa and rubbed his temples, contemplating his next course of action. While strengthening the
Chamber of Commerce at the same time, he would annihilate the remnants of the Gul Sect as soon as possible. Not
only that, but he had one other thing to deal with-Centennial Corporation, which was established by the Gu Sect.
However, Centennial’s development had been swift, and it was now a multinational pharmaceutical corporation. If
he acted recklessly and shut down the business, many would be unemployed, thereby causing a media sensation
throughout the world. Now, the only available option was to take over Centennial silently.
James pulled his phone out and called a number.
“I want you to investigate Centennial Corporation. I want to know the shareholders and person in charge of the
company.”
After calling Henry, he tossed his phone aside.
Thea asked, “Darling, do you plan to make a move against Centennial?”
“Mhm.” James nodded and said, “Now that Lucjan is dead and the Gu Sect is leaderless, I have to seize control of
Centennial before the next Sect Leader of the Gu Sect emerges.”
After brief contemplation, Thea said, “Since Lucjan is dead, why didn’t Callan retake control of the Gu Sect? He was
once the Sect Leader, after all. He should be able to regain control easily, right?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Not a bad idea… However, Callan isn’t in the Capital right now. He’s still at Divine Sword Villa at the moment. He
won’t be able to make it back soon. Once he returns, I’ll discuss the matter with him,” James
said.
He believed that Thea’s words made sense. Rather than annihilating the Gu Sect, gaining control of it was a much
better choice. After all, the Gu Sect was rather formidable. If he could gain control of it, dealing
with Orient Commerce would be a less strenuous task.
Speaking of Divine Sword Villa, James wished to return to that place. Dragonslayer would soon be
created. It was a sword forged with the blood and tears of Divine Sword Villa over multiple generations. James
wanted to witness Dragonslayer with his eyes. However, since he still had matters to attend to in the Capital, he
could not leave prematurely.
For the whole day, James remained at home.
In the evening, the Callahans arrived. Lex, Howard, Benjamin, Tommy, and David stood outside the door “Hello,
please come in,” Thea greeted them.
