The Strongest Man in the Universe

Chapter 214

"Grandfather.."

Julia tries to say something, but Mason stops her.

"David, I know what you mean, but I'm dead, and it's magical that I survived this time. I am lucky to be able to live another day. I don't care how much longer I can live. I just wish you could grow up faster and bring Somerland together when I'm gone" Mason said.

"Old Master Stefani, don't worry! I'll try my best!"

"Good! I'll get rid of some of the power lurking around Somerland before I go to lighten your load as much as possible!"

David was silent for a long time. He did not know what to say to the old man who put Somerland above his own life. He could only try his best to increase his strength even faster. He only needs to make himself stronger before Mason completes his plan, so he won't have to risk his life.

"Old Master Stefani! I'll be home and back tomorrow!” said David.

"Thank you then! Julia, accompany David!”

"Yes! grandpa!"

Julia led David to the gate.

"David! Thank you! My grandfather would have died if it wasn't for you" Julia spoke sincerely.

“You don't have to thank me! I'm happy to help Old Master Stefani. He has done a lot for Somerland! I'm the one who should thank him. Without him, we wouldn't be able to live peacefully!”

"Anything, thank you for everything! Accept my thanks! I'll pay you back if I have the chance."

Julia bowed to David as soon as she finished speaking. David quickly helped Julia up and said with a sad smile, "No need! Don't make yourself a stranger, okay? Aren't we friends? How can we be friends if you keep going like this?"

"All right! David, I'll take care of grandpa first. Take your time and come early tomorrow."

"okay!"

David got in the car and left. Afterwards, Julia turned around and went to the residence to look after Mason. As soon as she got in, Julia saw Mason coming out.

"Grandfather! Why are you out?” Julia rushed to Mason's aid.

"My body is rusty after lying in bed for a few days, so I want to go for a walk."

“Grandpa! What do you want for dinner? I'll have them prepare and send it!”

"David is gone?" Mason asked.

"He has gone! I asked her to come early tomorrow." Julia replied.

"Julia! You should stay close to David! He's not an ordinary man! He also knew techniques to defy heaven and change destiny. He probably got to where he is now due to some of Somerland's ancient heritage. Heroes are made in tough times, and David is probably the hero of our time" Mason said earnestly.

"Grandfather, why are you bringing it up again? David told me he had a girlfriend!” Julia said blushing.

"So what if she has a boyfriend? Of all the influential families in the Capital, every patriarch had some savings. One wife is not enough to grow an influential family."

"Grandfather, I'll stop talking to you if you say that again!"

"All right, I'll stop talking. But remember, you will never find a man as good as David if you miss this opportunity. David is the best man I've ever seen after living over a hundred years.”

It was past 4pm when David left Mason's place. Instead of returning to Celia's house, she prepared to spend the night at a nearby house. The property is spread throughout the capital. The key is in his car, and each key has a property address written on it.

After a casual dinner on the street, David goes to a well-equipped house. David lay in bed after he took a shower. It was a long day for him. Although cultivating herbs seemed simple, David had to go through the entire process with a strong mind.

Using the power of his mind with such a high intensity had a huge impact on him, even though the strength of his mind was strong.

Looking at the system panel in front of him, he saw that his luxury points had exceeded 9,000 points. It is at 9,147 points. It was a level he had never reached before.

David was excited too. At this rate, it would only take two or three days for him to surpass 10,000 points. Once his luxurious points exceeded 10,000 points, he would make a breakthrough with his body first. Once he made a breakthrough with his body, he would reach God Rank and become a Guardian.

While the East League Capitals have been hindered by their aimless expansion over the past week or so, it is okay as long as they improve. Once he settled the matter with Old Master Stefani, he would slowly solve it one by one.

As David thought about his luxury points exceeding 10,000 in two or three days, the phone rang. David took it and looked at his identity card. It was Hugo, the head of the East League Capitals branch.

"Hello!" David pressed the answer button and said.

"Mr Lidell! Hello, this is Hugo!” Hugo greeted respectfully on the phone.

"I know! Is there a problem that needs my help?" ask David.

"Mr Lidell! I have something to report to you!" said Hugo.

"East League Capital development has stopped?"

"Yes!"

"Leave first! I don't have time today. I'll deal with that when I'm done in a few days."

"Mr Lidell, this is serious!”

"Oh? Whatchu mean?"

"We brush the other person's part as it grows!"

“'Isn't that normal? The market is just that big. We will clash with other forces if we want to grow. Didn't I tell you at the meeting that you should be confident and move on?"

"But this time it's different. After much research, we found that they were one of the four leading families in the Capital. They're pretty strong.

With the current strength of East League Capital, we are no match for them. I wanted to ask if we could give up market share to reduce the tension."

“'Have you spoken to them?"

"Yes!"

"'How much do we have to sacrifice?"

"Who are they?"

"We only competed on a regular basis, while they were one of the four leading families in the Capital that would try to stop us with some dirty tricks."

"Don't mind them! Compete with them as usual for a week and I'll handle them myself after that."

"Mr Lidell! We're..."

David interrupted Hugo before he could finish, "Just do what I say!"

"Yes! Mr Lidell!”

David hangs up Hugo's phone and ignores his problem. He didn't know much about offending any of the four leading families in the Capital, but should he be afraid of them?

Once he made a breakthrough to God Rank in two or three days and became a Guardian, no prominent family could intimidate him because he would be the best.

In addition, he has a Somerland legend, Mason, as his backer. As long as he was on the right side, he was not afraid of anyone in Somerland.

Capital, Lovewoods

Grant, Fred, and two elders were assigned to the guest room. Meanwhile, Lorraine went to her grandfather's room. A wrinkled old man with gray hair was lying on the bed. Jim Lovewood, Lorraine's grandfather and Elliot's father. Lorraine sat on the side of the bed, with Elliot and Eve standing nearby.

"Grandfather! don'worry. I'll find a way to cure you!” Lorraine said with red eyes.

Lorraine is Lovewoods eldest granddaughter. He remembered that his grandfather Jim loved him very much since he was a child. He never hated her because she was his granddaughter. His grandfather was still excited when he returned ten years ago. Who would have thought he was bedridden for three years just a decade later.

"Lori! I'm happy to see you one last time before I die, but there's something I want to ask you.” Jim said.

"Please, Grandpa!"

“I'm so old that it doesn't matter whether I live or die. But you have to save your brother. He is innocent and has a long future ahead of him" Jim said.

"Don't worry, Grandpa! I'll save my brother, and I'll make them pay." Lorraine said furiously.

As a disciple of the third elder of the hidden sect Krums Somerland, he would give double punishment to anyone who dared to persecute his family.

"NO! Forget about revenge. They're so powerful that I just wish you and your brother were safe."

“Grandfather, rest first! I'll go first, and see you tomorrow." Lorraine left the room after she finished. He needs to know what's going on.

"Dad! Rest first!”

"Dad! We will also be out!”

Elliot and his wife followed Lorraine out of the room after she was done.

"Dad! What the hell is going on? Why is grandpa hurt? Why is my brother in jail?” Lorraine finally asked after they reached another room.

"Lori! This is what happened..."

Elliot explains what happened three years ago to Lorraine. It turns out Lorraine's brother, Jeremy Lovewood, got into a fight at a nightclub with Tanya Gooding of the Gooding family. One of the four prominent families of the Capital three years ago.

Because, Tanya refused to accept that Lorraine was making a scene in the Capital, which caused two of the Capital's top bachelors to fall in love with her at that time. Tanya has a crush on Stan Warmer for a long time, but Stan likes Lorraine. This makes Tanya hold a grudge against Lorraine.

Tanya has been slandering Lorraine ever since she left the capital and returned to Krum ten years ago. However, this does not bother Lovewoods. After all, the two families were too different in strength, and they didn't want any trouble.

Three years ago, Tanya met Jeremy at a nightclub and insulted Lorraine in front of him and his friends. Jeremy who is young and stubborn, can not stand others insulting his brother. He had been holding it for a long time, so, he exploded. He was the cause of the conflict, which eventually turned into a clash between two families.

Lovewoods were only a first-rate noble family at the lowest level. They were very different from respected families like the Gooding family. Jim comes to bring Jeremy back with a gift of some goodies but is beaten all out by the Gooding family.

He has been bedridden for three years now, and Jeremy has been imprisoned until now. Since that incident, the Gooding family has started targeting Lovewoods from all angles. If the Warmer family and the Zimmerman family did not interfere, the Lovewoods would be expelled from the Capital.

After Lorraine heard the entire story, the anger in her chest should dissipate, and she took a deep breath before calming down.

"Lori! Take your brother from there. But the Gooding family is at the peak of their success in Somerland now. Don't bother them." said Lorraine's worried mother, Eve. All she wanted was for her children to be safe.

"Mother! Worry not! I'm going to save my brother, and I want the Gooding family to bring him to me on their own" Lorraine said.

"Lori..."

"Mother! Worry not! The sect has sent Grant, Fred, and the two elders to return with me on a mission. Since the sect will be announced to the public, we need to find some families to work with. The Lovewoods will be our first partner. Our sect is also the best among all the hidden sects. The Gooding family did not dare offend us no matter how hard they tried." Lorraine said confidently.

"Is that true?" ask Elliot excitedly.

“Of course, Dad! don'worry. I'll make sure the Lovewoods stay on top" Lorraine said firmly.

"Lori! What is the name of your sect? How strong are Grant, Fred, and your two guests?” ask Elliot.

“Dad, my sect is called The Krums! You should at least become a Dragon Ranker to serve as an elder in The Krums! Grant and Fred might not be as strong as the elders, but they had the highest status among the sect members. Grant is a student of the Krum family head, while Freddy is the granddaughter of the senior head. Both of them are the only Guardian God Rank for our sect."

"'What? Guardian God Rank?”

Elliot felt his head turn. He did not expect the two polite youths to have such a strong background. After all, there were only three Guardian God Rank in Somerland.

Of course Somerland got to where they are today because Mason was a. Technically, Mason alone can fight more than ten people. However, the news said that Mason was dying. Somerland hasn't been very peaceful lately either. If a team had two Guardian God Rank, it could keep the peace and scare the others.

Lovewoods could make rapid progress in their careers if they could connect with Krums. The Gooding family was at the peak of power because they had family members who were members of the Somerland parliament.

Frank Gooding, who is also the grandfather of Tanya and Jenson Gooding, joined the organization more than ten years ago. This has led to the rapid development of the Gooding family in recent years.

If the Lovewoods are related to the Krums, the Gooding family will be afraid of messing with them, and returning Jeremy himself is not impossible.

"So you don't have to worry. Strong krum. Gooding's family is nothing. Tomorrow I will invite Grant, Fred, and the two old men to meet with the Gooding family to see if they can choose to fight me and the Krum family.”

News of Lorraine's return to the Capital spread quickly. Everyone in the upper class society in the Capital knew about it. They were waiting for Stan and Clinton to react. Many people were waiting to see what kind of action the two would take.
