Chapter 1771
Bernard figured David might choose to silence all of them.
Thus, he yelled immediately. “Watch out, everyone! There might be traps here! David killed Cornelius and is now
holding Master Archi hostage, so he’ll never reconcile with the Lightfoot family! He’s taking us for fools! He might
want to kill all of us now that he’s telling us the truth!”
Bernard’s words made everyone alert. Then, they all looked at David with hostile gazes.
“Not bad, old man. You know I’m taking you all for fools, but you shouldn’t say that I want to kill you. You chased
after me to kill me and then got killed yourselves. How can you say I want to kill you? Cornelius died this way too.
He was inviting trouble unto himself,” David said with a half smile
“D-David, i-if you kill me, you will be forever entangled with my family. Are you sure you want to do this? We have
grandmasters at Saint Realm in the family. The family will surely ask the grandmasters to avenge me once I die.”
Archimedes was still struggling.
Now, even he knew David was pretending to be stupid.
David had become the Lightfoot family’s sworn enemy the day he killed Cornelius.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtTherefore, the possibility of him letting Archimedes go was very low.
However, Archimedes was unwilling to wait for his death like this.
He still wanted to try to convince David to let him go.
“Archimedes, do you think I can still reconcile with your family after this?” David asked, feeling amused
Indeed, a human’s desire for survival was very strong.
Archimedes knew he could not escape but he still did not want to give up
“David, let me be honest with you. I am here to investigate Cornelius’ death. If you don’t kill me, I can pretend this
never happened and I will not tell the family that you killed Cornelius. This will benefit us both, what do you think?”
“No. You might not reveal this after I let you go, but you will surely reveal it after some time after you forget the
fear of death. I don’t want to create more trouble for myself. Only the dead can keep secrets. Plus, how will anyone
know that I killed you all?”
“David, are you sure you can kill all of us? As long as one of us escapes, you will be pursued and killed by the family.
Plus, you can’t understand a Saint’s techniques. The grandmasters have a lot of ways to find you.”
“Oh? Are Saints omnipotent? Why do I find it hard to believe you?”
“You…”
When Archimedes saw how indifferent David was, he changed his strategy and yelled at Bernard and the others at
a distance, “Uncle Bernard, once David kills me, don’t avenge me immediately. You should escape and tell the
seniors of the family what happened. Ask them to get the grandmasters to avenge me and Cornelius.”
“We will, Master Archi!” Bernard answered.
“Don’t worry, Master Archi. We will surely convey your message back to the family,” another late Sovereign Ranker
answered as well.
“You want to run? Didn’t you say that Saints are amazing and powerful? Do you think you have the chance.
to escape from a Saint?” David mocked.
‘How to escape a Saint?
‘Saint?
‘Where?
‘Who here’s a Saint?”
These were the questions in the hearts of the Lightfoot family members.
They did not know what David meant.
“D-David, did you ask a Saint to come here? Impossible! How would Saints take action so casually? You’re lying. If
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthere truly is a Saint here, tell them to come out!” Archimedes said in a shaky voice.
“He’s right in front of you. I am the Saint,” David said pretentiously.
“You? A Saint? Hahaha!” Archimedes started laughing.
He thought David managed to get a Saint to come over.
Since David could fight him with more than ten trillion Star Dollars, his identity was surely extraordinary.
Hence, it would not be astonishing if he had a master at Saint Realm.
If David did manage to get his master to come here, everyone from the Lightfoot family would be killed.
However, David claimed he was a Saint.
What a joke!
Was this possible?
Impossible!
David might not even know what a Saint is!
Among all the Saints in Star Kingdom, which one of them was not a grandmaster?
The youngest one had been alive for at least ten thousand years.
Even though there was no age limit after one reached Eternal Realm and one would need to look at their bones to
know their actual age, anyone with a discerning eye could tell the general age of a person.
