David brought Pearl to a Porsche dealership.

When the two of them walked through the door, a beautiful saleslady walked over to them.

She spotted the two of them got out of a Benz G-Class, and judging from what David was wearing, he looked like a rich kid.

Thus, she asked enthusiastically, “Sir, Miss, are you here to buy a car?”

“Yes!” David replied.

“May I know what model you’re looking for?”

“Do you have stock for the Porsche 911?”

“We do.”

“Take us to have a look.”

“Please come with me, sir.”

The beautiful saleslady brought them to a Porsche 911.

“We have two of them right now, one in red and one in black. May I know which one you want to look at, sir?”

David scanned the cars nonchalantly and answered, “I want the red one. Get me the invoice now.”

“Huh?” The beautiful saleslady was stunned. He did not even look at it and was buying it? He was so rich that it was insane.

“Sir, are you not going to take a look at it first?”

“I did. The red one is pretty nice.”

The beautiful saleslady had been working here for so long and this was the first time she was seeing someone buying a car like this. He only glanced at the exterior. He did not even look inside before asking for the invoice.

“Alright, sir, please come with me.”

Then, the saleslady led the duo to the front desk and started telling David the performance of the car.

“Sir, this red Porsche 911 is the latest sport’s car with the highest specs. It is equipped with a six-cylinder flat twin-turbocharged engine…”

“Before she could finish, David interrupted her, “Alright, enough. No need to say anything more. Just tell me how much it is.”

“May I know what setting you want?”

“Just get me the best one.”

“Alright, please wait. I’ll calculate it for you.”

Two minutes later…

“Sir, the total is 3.28 million dollars.”

After he paid, David and Pearl sat on the sofa to wait for the staff to go through the procedures.

Pearl figured since David came to buy a car, he should want her to drive the car for him. After all, he could not drive two cars back on his own. Even though she did not know why he chose red, she still suggested, “Darling, I don’t think red suits you. Why not the black one? I think the black one suits you more.”

“It’s not for me. It’s for you. I think the red one suits your temperament, Miss Pearl,” David answered with a grin.

“For me? Darling, are you joking?” Pearl asked in shock.

“Do I look like I’m joking? This is for you.”

“No way, this is too expensive. I can’t accept this.” Pearl quickly rejected.

“Miss Pearl, since you’re calling me your darling, you shouldn’t be so modest with me. You also know this money means nothing to me. It’s just a meal or two. If you reject this, then can we still have fun together in the future?”

“Um… Alright. Thank you, my dear David!”

Pearl was ecstatic. She was currently driving a 100 thousand dollar car, while her annual salary was only 5 or 600 thousand. Her rent every month, her clothes, and her makeup would take up half of her pay. Furthermore, she still had a little brother who had just graduated and was still unemployed, so she would send all of her remaining money back home.

Thus, even if she looked beautiful and polished outside, she did not have a lot of savings. She could never afford a luxury car like this also. Besides, any woman would like a red Porsche 911.

The beautiful saleslady walked behind them and heard their conversation. Right now, she was looking at Pearl with envy. She also wanted someone who was as extravagant as David who could give her a luxury car worth more than three million dollars without batting an eyelid.

“Sir, please give me your identification card or your identification number. We’ll help you apply for insurance and register for it.”

“We’ll just use yours, Miss Pearl.” David looked at Pearl and said.

“David, this isn’t appropriate, right?”

Even though David was buying this car for her, Pearl thought David would only let her drive it around. She did not think he would register the car under her name.

If that was the case, the car would belong to her. At this moment, Pearl was a little light-headed from this sudden surprise.

“Didn’t I say I’ll buy it for you? Do you think I’m joking?”

“Well, okay then. Darling, thank you so much!” ‘Pearl handed her identification car to the beautiful saleslady.

About ten minutes later…

The beautiful saleslady walked over again.

“Sir, it’s done. This is the key and the document. You can drive it away now.”

“Miss Pearl, take it. Let’s go.”

After David said that, he got up to leave.

When Pearl got the document and key, she went over to the car.

The two cars drove on the road next to each other.

Not long after, David, who was in front, received a call from Pearl.

“Darling, where are we going now?”

“Should we go back to the hotel for lunch now? But I’m not that hungry.”

“I’m not either,” replied Pearl.

“Do you want to go to my house?” David asked.

“Okay!”

The two of them drove to South River International Residence. After they parked the cars, they walked to Block 1.

Of course, Pearl had heard about South River International Residence. Plus, it was near to her work, so whenever she walked past this place, she would look at this place with envy. She could only dream about owning a house here.

Even though this dream was very far away, it would be good enough to come in to have a look.

When they got into the elevator of Block 1, they went straight to the 27th floor.

Even though Pearl was mentally prepared before she walked in, she was still stunned by the extravagance in front of her.

There was a brilliant chandelier above her and one of the walls of the lobby had been into into a huge french window facing River Leeds. Furthermore, the sofa, the television, and the painting were all incredibly luxurious.

Pearl would be willing to lose ten years of her life just to live in such an extravagant house.

“Please sit,” David asked Pearl to sit before pouring her a glass of water.

“David, darling, your house is so beautiful. River Leeds at night must be very beautiful from this angle, right?” Pearl asked while pointing at the french window.

“It’s fine. You can come anytime you want if you want to look at it.”

“Really?” Pearl asked in disbelief.

“Of course! Right, where are you from, Miss Pearl?”

“I’m from Cloud City. I’ve been working in River City for three to four years.”

“Have you bought a house here yet?”

Not yet. The housing prices here are so expensive. I don’t even know when I can afford it,” Pearl sighed ruefully.

“I think you should be able to get a mortgage on a house in River City with your salary, right, Miss Pearl?” David asked curiously.

“Actually, my salary is not that high, and I still need to take care of my parents and little brother. I need to pay rent, and my clothes and makeup are not cheap, so that’s why I can’t save much money,” Pearl said in a sad voice.

    “Do you want to move in with me then? I can’t stay in such a big house by myself. This way, you can even save on rent.”David did not know why he said that. Rationally, he had only known Pearl for two days and it was so sudden for him to invite her to stay with him. However, since he said it, he still felt a little longing in his heart.Actually, David did not know how petty and low he was when he was with Sarah. He would always listen to Sarah, and he rarely had the right to speak.However, it was different with Pearl. Pearl would let him make the decision when they were talking or going on about something, and she would also ask him for his advice about anything.Of course, all men would have some machismo. Who would not want a woman who would treat them like a leader? Therefore, David was fond of Pearl’s way of talking and behaving, and subconsciously liked being around Pearl.“Is this… appropriate?” Pearl asked, a little hesitant.Even though she was saying that, she was very

    At this moment…On the 33rd floor of the Golden Leaf Hotel.Inside the chairman’s office.The general manager of Golden Leaf Hotel Sean Caldwell was standing opposite a man who was in his thirties.The man was sitting on the chairman’s seat. He was reclined in the chair and his legs were on the desk.This man was Golden Leaf Hotel’s chairman Hugh Greene. At the same time, he was also the biggest shareholder of the hotel.“Sean, did anything happen in the hotel recently?” Hugh asked.He came to South River Province for business, so he dropped by while he was at it. This occasion was purely by coincidence. Normally, he would only drop by once or twice a year.“Mr. Greene, everything’s great in the hotel. The business is rising steadily and there’s a 20% growth compared to the same quarter last year,” replied Sean.“Not bad. Sean, you did a good job. Your bonus at the end of the year will be doubled and the staff’s bonus will increase 50%.”“Thank you, Mr. Greene!” Sean bowed an

    David was eating the most exquisite food in his private room.It was great having money.This was the food that he never dared to dream about eating. Now, he was eating half of it and throwing the rest away.As he was enjoying himself, the door was pushed open.David thought Pearl was here, so he said, “Miss Pearl, come and have some.”When he turned his head, he saw a man in his thirties walking over. Pearl was walking at the back while in front of him was a man in his forties or fifties. Aside from Pearl, he did not know the two men.However, Pearl looked off-color and her eyes were slightly red. Therefore, David knew what was going on.“Mr. Lidell, hello. I am the boss here and my name is Huge Greene. May I know if you’re happy with the food and service provided here, Mr. Lidell? If you need anything, you can tell me and we’ll definitely fulfill your request,” Hugh said modestly after he approached David.He was very interested in David. He must be a rich kid from a rich fam

    Golden Leaf Hotel.Private Room 3.Pearl stayed behind and asked David, “David, are you sure you want to buy this hotel?”“Yes, I am. I’m just worried that your boss won’t sell it to me. Who is your boss?” David asked.“I am not sure either. Mr. Greene rarely comes to the hotel. Usually, he will show up during the annual dinners. I heard he has other companies too and Golden Leaf is just one of them.”“That mysterious? Then it might be a bit hard. He might not need this measly sum of money,” David said.This measly money? 20 to 30 billion was just measly to him? Was this the circle of the ultra-rich? This was so scary!Pearl was going numb. She had worked in the most high-end hotel in South River for three to four years and with her natural advantages, had met a lot of clients and made a lot of friends. Some of them had a net worth in the billions, or even tens of billions. She felt that she was almost reaching this circle.However, David taught her a lesson over these two days

    Ten minutes later…There was a knock on the door.“Come in. Sean, Pearl, you should come in too,” Hugh said.After the door was opened, Jack, Sean, and Pearl entered the room together.“Allow me to announce something. Mr. Lidell and I have reached an agreement. We’ll transfer Golden Leaf Hotel to Mr. Lidell for a fee of 20 billion dollars. Mr. Hansen, prepare to receive the deposit and draft an invoice. The transaction will be done within a week,” Hugh looked at the three of them and said.The three of their expressions were different when they heard this news.Jack was indifferent. He had been around Hugh for many years. Not only was he the head of financial affairs in the Golden Leaf Hotel, but he also held other jobs at other places. His workload would be reduced if Hugh sold Golden Leaf Hotel.On the other hand, Sean’s face turned gray. He was a general manager Hugh found using a headhunting company. Even though he lost a job here, it would be easy for him to find another jo

    In the evening, David walked into the Golden Leaf Hotel with his head high.“Hello, Mr. Lidell!”“Hello, Mr. Lidell!”Four beautiful attendants at the door greeted Lidell with admiration in their eyes.The news about David becoming their boss had spread throughout the hotel. Pearl had started handling the affairs of a general manager and the previous general manager Sean had already left.After David entered the hall, the four attendants started discussing among themselves.“Mr. Lidell is so young and handsome!”“Yes! He’s so handsome and rich! He’s the man of my dreams that I’ve been waiting for!”“Mr. Lidell won’t fall for you!”“How do you know? What if I’m his cup of tea?”“Tch, Mr. Lidell’s cup of tea is Ms. Warner.”“Don’t you know that you’ll get bored eating the same food? If Mr. Lidell wants a change of taste, then our time will come.”David did not hear the discussion behind him. After he walked into the lobby, Pearl came to him.“Miss Pearl, why are you still he

    After he got his sports car, David went back home.After he opened his brand-new laptop, he downloaded Whale Streaming and registered a new account using the username Lil Match. David had never seen Whale Streaming before because he could not afford a computer.Whale Streaming was the largest streaming platform on the computer while TikTok was the largest on mobile. The two basically dominated over 80% of their respective industries.After David entered the ID for his cousin’s stream, he saw that it was about 11 pm and that girl was having a lot of fun in her stream.After he entered the steam, Lily was thanking the people who bought her gifts. However, their gifts were small in size, and they only cost about eight or ten dollars. When David looked at the biggest amount gifted, it was only a little over ten thousand while the second-ranking was only a few hundred.David felt that he should tell this girl during Labor Day that her cousin was a quadrillionaire now and perhaps her gi

He’s much more generous than Don. Also, Don said he likes you but when we gave him your streaming ID, he only gave you a little over ten thousand bucks. He stopped following after a few dozen Super Rockets. This guy named Lil Match is so generous!”Lily was very confused too. She had no idea who Lil Match was, yet he immediately gave her 100 thousand worth of gifts the moment he came in.She just started streaming not long ago, and the people who supported her were all students from the same university. Most of them were her classmates. Don was her senior and he had always been Rank one in her stream. He was a year older than her, and was currently pursuing her.“Girls, do you think I should add him as a friend?” Lily asked.Streamers would usually add some of the nouveau riches as friends so that the

    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.
