Chapter 2522
While Salem was hesitating, David said again, "Mayor Salem, perhaps there won't be any danger in just one day. It's
been five days and I don’t see the two families coming here to make trouble for me. They should still be making
preparations. You can get a favor from me without wasting any effort, so why are you still hesitating? Do you think
my favor is worthless?"
"No! You've misunderstood me. To be honest, I knew you had a promising future the first time I met you, so that's
why
I asked Arian to apologize to you. However, as a Birch family member, my actions represent my family and now
that the Campbell and Marche families are working together, my family is also helpless," Salem said with a bitter
smile.
David did not expect Salem to say no to him.
He thought that as the mayor, Salem would be pretty bold and he would not have so many considerations.
It seemed that he could not underestimate the collaboration of the Campbell and Marche families.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSince Salem had said this, David would not force him.
He could just delay for a few more days and wait for the two families' first attack to pass before leaving The Spirit
Cage for his breakthrough.
He was confident that his Ancient level 1 soul power was enough to deal with the two families.
Until now, the strongest person David met in The Spirit Cage was still that mysterious person.
However, it was unsure who would be the stronger one if he met the mysterious person now.
Moreover, that mysterious person was the one who ransacked the treasures of the eight main cities.
From this, David could deduce that the mysterious person was so strong that they could do whatever they wanted
in the eight main cities of The Spirit Cage. After the forces sent them the treasures, they did not even dare to make
a sound.
From this, David felt that he was also strong enough to do whatever he wanted in The Spirit Cage.
"If that's the case, I won't bother you anymore. Don't worry, Mayor Salem, I won't take this to heart and this won't
affect the relationship between us. So long!" David got up to leave after he said that.
After a few steps, Salem stopped him.
"Wait, David!"
"Is there anything else I can help you with, Mayor Salem?" David asked.
Salem thought about it and asked after bracing himself, "Are you sure you'll only be in seclusion for one day?"
"Of course! It will just be one day, maybe even less." David nodded.
"Alright, just use the mayor’s residence to go into seclusion. Even if the two families are here, I will also help you
delay for one more day."
In the end, Salem decided to bet on this. He was very optimistic about this young man.
He felt that David was not someone who would escape just before the battle. Perhaps he really needed this one
day.
"Mayor Salem, to be honest, you don’t have to force yourself. I don’t have to go into seclusion at this time. It won't
be too late for me to do it after the two families arrive," David said.
He did not need to go into seclusion at this time indeed.
He just figured that since he had enough lavish points, he should use them.
The more powerful he was, the more confident he would be, right?
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe did not expect that asking Salem to protect Pebbles for one day would be so hard for him.
David figured this was just a small matter, but to Salem, this was something huge.
This was the difference in perspective.
When two people had different perspectives, they would naturally consider different consequences for the same
problem.
"David, I have debated with myself a long time before agreeing, so please don’t reject me anymore."
'Well... Fine!" David stopped arguing too.
He would benefit from an early breakthrough too.
'When will you start?"
David opened his system to take a look. He already had 2.77 million lavish points.
He only needed 30 thousand more to get to the 2.8 million that he needed for his breakthrough.
"About an hour later."
"Alright, I'll ask someone to prepare a room for you."
'Thank you, Mayor Salem."
"You’re welcome! You're welcome!"
