Springfield!In an upscale apartment.Pearl was sitting on the couch in her pajamas, having just hung up on David, and was about to call her subordinates to hurry things up.David said on the phone that money was not an issue as long as they could get results. He probably wanted to do something urgently to show his family.'Didn't heirs of powerful families try to kill each other to fight for the patriarch’s position?''Maybe David's jockeying for a spot in his family? Is he in such danger too?'If so, she needed to speed up. She and David were in the same boat now. She would rise or fall with him.If David failed to grab the patriarch spot, her life would be miserable, and she still had some indescribable feelings about him.She did not want David to fail, so she had to work harder.Since money was not an issue, it was easier to get things done with half the effort.With that, she got off the phone with her subordinate after urging them to finalize the investment quickly. Th
The next day.David received a phone call from Charles early in the morning, asking if he had anything to do today and that Old Master Luther wanted to see him. After thinking about it, David agreed.Charles and his sister had invited him several times, but he had always been held up by other matters. He could meet them since he was free right now.After all, Charles had helped him on several occasions, so they were good friends.Ever since David donated one hundred million dollars to the school, his lecturer never called him to return to class again. It was the power of money.David followed Charles' directions to another affluent area in River City, South Mountain Villa Garden.Although the price per square meter of villas here was not as high as that of South River International Residence, the area was large!Every one of the villas started at 3,000 square meters and had a private garden and swimming pool.Besides that, the environment was beautiful, the air was fresh, and i
Charles was the successor Old Master Luther designated. Although others were a little unconvinced, they had no say in the matter. Old Master Luther called the shots in the Luther family.No one dared to oppose whatever he said. Even if you were unconvinced, you could only bury it in your heart.David followed Charles and his sister into the main hall.There was a wrinkled, elderly man sitting on a couch with a steaming pot of tea on the coffee table in front of him. Behind him stood four middle-aged men, two of whom had been seriously injured by Zachary's bodyguard, Mac, at Fuller Golden Sands."Grandpa!""Grandpa!"Charles and his sister cried out as they each sat on the right and left of the old man.The old man nodded with a smile and looked at David."Hello, Old Master Luther!" David greeted him politely.Rupert said nothing but sized up David carefully.It took about a minute or two before Rupert said, "Good! Good! No wonder you could defeat Zachary. You're young and cap
After Sandy left, David chatted with Old Master Luther. Then Old Master Luther asked Charles to accompany David, got up, and went upstairs.Sandy was blushing throughout the whole lunch. She also kept avoiding David, not daring to look at him.After lunch, David wanted to leave, but Old Master Luther called him to the study alone."Have a seat, Dave!" Rupert was sitting on the couch in his study as he spoke to David.David sat down, kept quiet, and waited for him to say something.Old Master Luther must have called him here for something else."Dave, how do you think the Luther family is doing now?" Asked Rupert."Celebrated!" David thought for a moment before saying.He had no idea why Rupert was asking that. However, as far as he knew, the Luther family was celebrated in River City and the whole Of South River Province."It was just a facade. If I were suddenly gone and no one from the Luther family could take on the burden, the Luther family would be a piece of fat meat tha
He thought Old Master Luther was someone strong, but he realized he was just an old man after meeting him.David's mind power was so strong now, but he could not sense the slightest threat from Old Master Luther.It was possible that Old Master Luther used to be strong, but was just an ordinary old man now.It was hard to imagine that a family currently in its prime was built by this old man.If the old man was suddenly gone, the towering Luther family would collapse."I don't understand. Please explain, Old Master Luther!" said David.It was not that he was curious or anything, but Rupert was naturally going to elaborate since he brought the topic up.He was just complying by asking.Sure enough, Rupert continued, "That's because I have another identity!""What's that?" David asked cooperatively."A retired member of National Special Task Force's Team B!""A retired member of National Special Task Force's Team B? What kind of organization is that?" David asked curiously."
David understood once Rupert finished speaking.National Special Task Force had to be some terrifying organization.Old Master Luther used to be a member of this organization, but he retired because of his injury. The organization would still ensure the safety of the Luther family as long as he was alive.However, this was on the premise that the Luther family themselves was innocent. If the Luther family wanted to cause trouble and offend others, the organization would not intervene.To put it simply, they had backup when they were innocent, but they were on their own when they were being unreasonable.Charles pulled out his firearm to take out Zachary's bodyguard, so he was being unreasonable and would die in vain.'However, why is the old man telling me so many things?'He even said he'd give me a big present.'Does he want me to join the National Special Task Force?''It would be nice if I could join, I would have status and backup. At the very least, I won't have to worry
He dared not unleash his aura on Rupert either. After all, he was scared he would kill the defenseless old man.David had no idea that people would not think of a system at all.You could only get stronger, step by step. There were no shortcuts or serendipity.Even the most gifted person need to start at an early age. They would only live a mediocre life once they were past their prime.Therefore, the rational assumption would be exactly as Rupert had said. It would be the same even if someone really did look into his background."Dave, don't be alarmed. We're friends, not enemies. You should thank me for looking into you. I concealed your identity after I finished my investigations. There have been at least three parties looking into you afterward, but they found nothing," explained Rupert.The aura David released earlier was strong!Although he did not direct it at him, as a former master in the Tiger Rank, he still had the perception even though his powers were gone.David w
Rupert added, "Special Task Force is a law enforcement department established against the martial artists in the country. Since we have a branch controlling those within, we have another one controlling the outsiders.""Outsiders? Is that for the martial artists abroad?" asked David."That's right! Countries aren't as peaceful as they appear to be, but they've agreed not to use weapons of mass destruction, lest lives are lost. Thus, they only test each other's bottom lines with weapons."The organization for martial artists abroad is called Falcon. If you can join both organizations, your data will be regarded as the highest level of classified information in the country. By then, no one will be allowed to read it except for a few people. As long as you don't commit treason, it's equal to having two assurances.""You can join both?" David asked again."Yes, but there are certain conditions."David got out of Old Master Luther's study, bid goodbye to Charles and Sandy, and left th
