“Celia, have you heard David mention someone named Pearl?” Mindy asked.She had been following the updates on East League Capitals and she had noticed this woman early on.She had also looked closely at Pearl's profile.Mindy found that she was just someone who came out of a poor rural area and she had relied on a powerful person like David to transform into a businesswoman worth tens of billions of dollars.Moreover, this only took a few months.She was now the general manager of East League Capitals, the second most powerful person in the trillion-dollar company East League Capitals, after David himself.Mindy was very concerned about the women around David, for fear that someone better than his daughter would steal David away.Where else could she find such a handsome, rich, and good-natured son-in-law?One could only come across such things serendipitously.“No, what's wrong?” Celia asked curiously.“Oh, you, why don't you care about this kind of thing? Pearl is the gener
After Mindy and Jon left, Celia said apologetically, “David, don't mind them. My mother is like thhat, she is just very curious.”“Silly girl, what’s there to be angry about? Mrs. Young is just concerned about me,” David said with a smile.He still had no idea what was on Mindy’s mind. He thought it was because he had not come here in a long time and Mindy thought that there was some conflict between himself and Celia, and that was why she was asking so many questions.Frankly, no one could get angry with a woman like Celia.“David, how long are you going to stay in Capital City this time?” Celia asked.“Um… A day or two.”“So short?” Celia asked, feeling a little lonely.She thought that David could spend more time here and accompany her to go around. She did not expect David to leave so soon.“I have no choice. The class reunion is coming soon, and I have to go back early since I promised to go. Plus, I have to go back to see Aunt Sally and Aunt Diana as well. But I'm going t
“But we can’t leave him to continue behaving like this, right? The more you indulge men, the more out of line they become.”“Stop bringing this up. We have no evidence, so are we supposed to forbid them from interacting even if it is for work? David is the boss of East League Capitals and he took the general manager and employees to develop abroad. This is normal.”“But…”“No buts, let's go. Go buy some food with me. We should give them some alone time.”After dinner at night, the family sat in the living room.Eventually, Mindy managed to hold herself back and did not continue to question David.“Mrs. Young, Mr. Young, I'm going back to South River Province tomorrow. I have a high school reunion in a few days and I want Celia to accompany me there. We’re on break now and we have nothing much going on. Plus, she’s also our high school friend,” David said to Mindy and Jon.“Okay, you can take Celia out to relax. We don't feel at ease if she goes alone but we will feel more reliev
The next morning, David and Celia flew straight to River City in South River Province.After getting off the plane, David took Celia back to South River International Residence.Although he had not been back for a long time, housekeepers would come in to clean every week, so his house was still very clean.On the way, David called the Golden Leaf Hotel to have them deliver lunch to South River International Residence.He was too lazy to run around anymore, and since he had the power, he should just use it.After entering South River International Residence, David said to Celia, “Celia, if you are tired, you should rest and I will call you when lunch arrives.”“I'm not tired. David, is this where you live? It's so beautiful,” Celia asked, looking around the house.“Yeah, I used to live here. If you like it, we can stay here for the next few days. If you want to stay in a hotel, we can do that as well. There is an eight-star hotel here that belongs to me too.”“No, I don't want t
Sally and Diana’s families were also well-known in Shu City now. In their words, they were honoring their ancestors.These were given to them by David.What the two families did was just help David at his most difficult and pitiful time and took him in to stay with them.From Sally and Diana's view, they were David's relatives and also David's elders, so they should help David as a matter of responsibility.However, David gave them so much in return.Of course, David had the same idea. Since they were family, he should help them if he had the ability to do so.On the contrary, David's Uncle Bobby and Uncle Leslie, as well as his uncle, were at odds now because of the compensation from David's parents. To this day, David had not given them any benefits.The two families still remembered the envious eyes of those people when they went back. They were begging Sally and Diana’s family to help them find a way for them to also come to develop in River City.However, Sally and Diana b
The next day, David brought Celia to visit both his aunts Sally’s and Diana’s families.Celia received four different presents, as it was a tradition David’s family followed to bestow their blessings. As David’s elders, the adults decided to bestow their blessings in the form of presents, but how expensive each present was depended on the adult’s financial ability. Celia was elated, not because of how many presents she received since she did not care too much about that, but because she had been accepted by David’s elders. This was the most important thing of all to her. David had plans to bring Celia back to Shu City. Their high school reunion was in three days, and he thought about taking that chance to visit the school they had once attended.At the same time, they could also take the opportunity to walk around Shu City as they had many memories of that place. When Sally and Diana found out that David was going to Shu City, they packed their things to return with him as
“Do you remember me, Mr. Lowell? I’m David, I’m here to visit you.”David brought the two bags of goods into the security room with Celia following behind him as he spoke and placed them on the small table inside.Mr. Lowell took a good look at David. The young man looked familiar.After some thought, he finally remembered who the young man was.It was David Lidell, Shu City High’s ex-student. The reason why David felt familiar was that the young man used to deliver food to him during breaks. After some time, the two became familiar and close with each other. Mr. Lowell actually had a great deal of respect for this young man.While the other students studied and played around, David was usually out doing part-time jobs.What truly solidified that respect, though, was how despite doing part-time, David’s results had never faltered and he was always among the top two in his grade. David was one of Shu City High’s prized students, as he got enrolled in SRU after graduating three
Mr. Lowell got up and walked to the table to take David’s gifts only after David and Celia entered the campus.Mr. Lowell took a glance at its contents and was shocked.He quickly opened both the bags and was stunned by what he saw.One bag had ten high-quality cigarettes. It was a luxury cigarette brand, and Mr. Lowell had never tried a cigarette so expensive before.One cigarette of this brand cost a few thousand dollars, meaning ten of those cigarettes cost a total of a few dozen thousand dollars.The other bag had a box of expensive branded brandy.One bottle of this liquor costs more than ten thousand dollars, so a box of six meant another few dozen thousand.The two bags from David could amount to at least a hundred thousand. Mr. Lowell stared at them dazedly.It took a long while before Mr. Lowell could come out of shock.It had only been a few years since they last met and David was already successful enough to gift someone something so expensive.Coupled with the fac
The Overlords felt it the most intensely.Without the suppression of the curse, the Metaverse would inevitably usher in a huge batch of new Almighties.The Super Sky Demons who survived the explosion were stunned.This was the first time the Sky Demons had encountered a counterattack from a lower cosmic plane.That had never happened before.The self-detonation was so powerful that not even the Super Sky Demons could withstand it.Although not fatal, it seriously injured them and made them lose most of their combat power.One explosion could seriously injure those Super Sky Demons in the center. If it happened again, even a Super Sky Demon would die.David was fighting the Sky Demons alone.Blaze and the others could only just watch. They could not even get close, let alone help David. Moreover, they did not want to distract David while he was fighting.At that moment, they finally realized the kind of genius that had appeared in the Metaverse.The news that the Sky Demons h
Rush out?Blaze hesitated when he heard what David said.Even if they could break the seal, they would still have to face the main force of the Sky Demons.Outside the Metaverse was an army of Sky Demons. They were constantly monitoring the movement of the Metaverse and the surrounding universe.The Super Sky Demons were in at least double digits.However, when he recalled David’s performance just now and how he killed two Super Sky Demons, he felt relieved again.“Are you sure?” Blaze asked.“Let’s give it a try. How will you know if you don’t try it?” David replied.“Okay, we’ll take a gamble with you! The Sky Demons will attack us sooner or later anyway, so it’s better to fight now. What do you think?” Blaze said and looked at everyone.“Let’s kill them!” All the Almighties shouted in unison.After being trapped here for so long and watching the comrades around them die one by one, everyone had long been suppressing the anger in their hearts.Now that they finally had the
However, they killed so many Sky Demons this time without any losses, which was unimaginable before.“Blaze, do you like this gift?” David smiled.“Haha! Of course! I love it! David, you gave me a big surprise. We were already in despair. We only hope that we can one day break the seal and send some young people out so we can still have some hope, but at this critical moment, you showed up. It seems that God doesn’t want us to die just yet.” Blaze laughed.David was also a little confused at this time.Some things were too coincidental.Did the system show up at this time so he could give the Metaverse some hope?What if he had died on the way?Or what if he was careful and did not grow so quickly?Wouldn’t the Sky Demons have already invaded the Metaverse by now?Who created the system?Now, it seemed that it was not a product of the Metaverse.If someone in the Metaverse could create such a heaven-defying thing, why would they be sealed by the Sky Demons and trapped for su
With David's cautious character, he would not take risks himself.If something went wrong, it would be too late for regrets.Wouldn’t it be better to use a clone?He could summon another if it got injured or died. Moreover, it could also self-detonate to injure the enemy at critical moments.So, right after the battle, he quietly summoned a clone.The one holding the Evil-Splitting Sword was just a clone.Meanwhile, his main form was watching this with the other Almighties.When Blaze and others heard David ask them to watch the show, they did not ask any questions and stared at the battlefield curiously.They wondered, ‘Did this kid really just become an Almighty?‘Moreover, that sword is not simple. It can actually restrain Sky Demons.’David's clone was facing the siege of countless Sky Demons and two Super Sky Demons. Then, he found the right moment and threw the Evil-Splitting Sword in his hand at one of the Sky Demons.When the Sky Demon saw the Evil-Splitting Sword co
The best result that Blaze and others could think of is to open a gap in the seal and send some young people out so that the Metaverse’s bloodline could continue.They never thought they could beat the Sky Demons; it was almost impossible.The Sky Demons were so strong that only ten Metaverses at their peak could defeat them.The current Metaverse should just forget about this.“Hahaha! You? Do you know who we are? We have destroyed countless low-level cosmic planes like yours, and you are the first one who dares to threaten us,” the Super Sky Demons laughed.The other Sky Demons also laughed.“I’m not threatening you. Aren’t you very strong physically? Let’s see if you can recover the part of your body that my Evil-Splitting Sword chopped down.” David smiled slightly.When he killed dozens of Sky Demons just now, he discovered that his Evil-Splitting Sword seemed to have a very strong ability to restrain the Sky Demons.Since it was deadly against Sky Demons, Super Sky Demons
The Sky Demons sent out two Super Sky Demons this time, hoping to annihilate the Almighties in one fell swoop and completely take over the Metaverse.They had spent a long time weakening the Metaverse.They reduced the Almighties from more than a thousand to less than a hundred. This was the moment they were waiting for.Those Almighties who had survived were all the elite of the elites. Even the lowest strength among them were at mid-Origin Realm. Therefore, it was easy to kill them.Hence, that was why the Sky Demons dispatched two Super Sky Demons to kill them with one blow.At first, neither Super Sky Demons paid much attention to the Metaverse.After all, the only two peak Almighties were seriously injured and were no match for them.As long as they dealt with Blaze and Eros, it would be much easier for them to deal with the mid and late Almighties.However, as time passed, the two Super Sky Demons gradually realized something was wrong. The Sky Demons they brought with th
“Got it!” David replied loudly.Although he was a little dissatisfied, he still agreed with the other party’s plan.This was a good time to see how strong the Super Sky Demon was and make sure it would be appropriate to summon some of his clones.“Go!”Blaze took the lead, jumping up from the ground and shooting into the sky.The rest of the Almighties followed, with David hiding among them.At this time, countless huge black shadows descended from the sky, and two Super Sky Demons were in the lead.“Surrender! Otherwise, you will die!” The ferocious-looking Super Sky Demon opened his terrifying mouth.“F*ck you!” Blaze yelled.They originally lived a peaceful life in the Metaverse and were at peace with the surrounding universe.However, these scoundrels showed up and sealed the Metaverse. Then, the Origin Realm Almighties died one after another to protect their homeland.From more than a thousand people, the number of the Almighties dropped sharply to less than a hundred.
“Leave one of the Super Sky Demons to me. You and Eros can deal with the other one.”The moment David finished saying that, he got the Evil-Splitting Sword, and his whole temperament changed drastically.He seemed to fuse with the Evil-Splitting Sword and become a decisive and sharp-edged weapon.The Evil-Splitting Sword, combined with the energy emanating from David, caused even the Almighties standing next to him to take a few steps back unconsciously.After they came back to their senses, they blushed and stared at David in disbelief.They were experienced Almighties, yet they were actually shocked by a newcomer. How could this be possible?At this time, everyone’s eyes were focused on David, including Blaze and Eros.As peak Origin Realms, the two felt it more deeply than others.After David and the sword in his hand merged, they formed an extremely terrifying force that even made Blaze and Eros feel a strong threat.One must know that they were the strongest in the Metave
As Blaze finished speaking, four figures quickly descended from the sky before he could act.Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!In the blink of an eye, they fell to the ground.Then, four ragged Almighties rushed over and landed on the platform.The four were responsible for monitoring every move of the Sky Demons, and they tried to come back to report the situation when they noticed something was wrong.However, in the end, they still could not escape the Super Sky Demon’s attack. So, all four suffered varying degrees of injuries.However, it was not easy to kill Almighties, even if a Super Sky Demon did it.“Are you four okay?” Blaze asked.“Don’t worry, Blaze, I won’t die so soon. The Super Sky Demon is so powerful! He seriously injured four of us with just one move,” one of the middle-aged men replied, spitting out a mouthful of blood.“A Super Sky Demon is equivalent to a peak Almighty. You are only in mid-Origin Realm, so naturally, you are no match for him! How many Super Sky Demo
