The Strongest Man in the Universe

Chapter 544

He had not expected Cornelius, the second heir of the Lightfoot family, to be such a bastard. She implied that she would not let him go if she did not eat with him.

‘What should I do?’ At this moment, Alba was confused.

He tried to contact the Fellowes' family but it turned out that the signal had been cut off by Cornelius. He can't do this. If he boarded the Cornelius ship, he would be accused of infidelity once the matter was revealed. It doesn't matter what he's actually doing there. Even his family will be involved.

The moment the man came out, what awaited him and the Fellowes family would be a crushing blow. Judging from the man's ego, how would he accept such a thing?

Alba even felt Cornelius came up with preparations to hasten the death of himself and the Fellowes' family. However, when he thought about it, there was something strange.

'How could Cornelius dare to do this?

How could he contain the man's anger?

Possibly ...' Alba was surprised and a cold light flashed in her eyes.

'Was there someone who instigated this?

Who'sis that?

Is that the backstop behind the Lightfoot family?

This was the only reason why Cornelius was so brave.'

It is said that the two families are at odds with each other. So, it is not impossible for someone to want to play tricks behind the scenes. One had to admit that Alba was one of the most famous talented women in the Central Sacred Continent.

He's pretty smart. He managed to analyze the general context of the situation from Cornelius' actions today. If there was no one behind this, Cornelius would never dare to do such a thing even if he was given all the courage in the world.

However, even though Alba knew what was going on, she did not have a good solution. Cornelius obviously came with preparations, so the person he brought with him should not be weak. Meanwhile, Alba did not expect such a thing to happen at all so she only brought a few servants and guards.

From his point of view, no one dared to do anything to him in the Central Sacred Continent. At the same time, he was also the fiancee of the famous man. Therefore, he did not expect to see Cornelius behave so boldly. If Cornelius had committed violence, Alba would have been powerless.

He thought of all the possible factors and was still unable to resolve his urgent predicament. The only way out here is David. It's a pity David can't reveal his identity. Even if his identity was revealed, Cornelius probably wouldn't believe it.

He was just a random person who claimed to be a disciple of the Sacred Saint People. Maybe no one will believe it.

‘What should I do?

Am I going to fall into the hands of bastard Cornelius today?’

According to Alba's prediction, Cornelius only needed to force him onto his ship and release him later. He doesn't even have to do anything to her. As soon as the news came out, it would be over for him and the Fellowes family. There will be no chance to change their fate.

At that time, even if David, a disciple of the Sacred Saint master wanted to help him, it would be extremely difficult.

While Alba was thinking of a way out of this, Cornelius became impatient. It would be best if Alba came and stayed with him for a while. If he did not want to, Cornelius would have to force Alba to come.

This time, he was completely ready. He also knew that the guards around Alba were only Immortal Rankers. So, in order to avoid the unwanted, he brought along two novice Sovereign Rankers to ensure that his plan would be 100% successful. As for the consequences, Cornelius did not care about it.

He did not control the life or death of Alba and the Fellowes' family. He only knew that he had to find a way to please his master. Only this way could he have the chance to compete for the position of the head of the Lightfoot family.

“Nona Alba, what do you think? As long as you come and drink with me, I, Cornelius Lightfoot, promise on behalf of the Lightfoot family that I will never touch you, how?”

“Cornelius, just give up! I'm not going to go to your ship." Alba refused.

“So, you mean you won't do it for me, right, Miss Alba? You are a very gentle woman so don't force me to be violent. Since I know of your whereabouts, I also know that some of the guards you are with are only at Immortal Rank. Their strength is still far from enough.”

“Cornelius, I know your intentions. If you dare to act today, I'll kill myself in front of you and see how you'll explain my death." Threatened Alba.

After pondering for a long time, this was the only approach he could take. If Cornelius dared to take action, then he would kill himself. This is the only solution.

Once he died, no matter what rumors surrounded him, it would be self-defeating. Cornelius also had to endure the wrath of the Fellowes' family and the man.

Alba does not want to die. However, he had no choice. He also bet that Cornelius would not dare to do this.

“Nona Alba, why are you doing this? I just admire you and want to drink with you. I'm saying that as long as you come, I'm not going to touch you at all. Why do you have to go to extremes to solve this problem?" Cornelius said calmly.

Although his tone was calm, Cornelius was already standing up from the chair at the moment. The expression on his face was slightly distorted and he was angry inside. After careful calculations, the only thing Cornelius did not consider was that Alba committed suicide.

If he really killed himself, then all of this would be destroyed. At the time, not only did he fail to please his employer, but he also had to be held accountable by the Fellowes' family and Alba's fiancee. How would Cornelius bear all that without the support of his employer?

“Cornelius, I've guessed what you think. Someone must have instigated you behind your back! Since you want to stir up public opinion to disappoint my fiancee, please whoever is behind you, and make the Fellowes' family feel bad, I'll kill myself to make you suffer the consequences. Try it if you don't believe me!" Alba gritted her teeth after saying that.

He actually revealed Cornelius' plan. However, Cornelius did not plan to admit it. He's pretty strong. Although he was exposed, and his fists clenched tightly, he was still able to answer calmly.

“Nona Alba, you wrongly accused me. Everyone knows I admire you. I know you will soon be married to someone else and I will never have a chance with you again. Can't I have a drink and a meal with you before you get married?"

“Fuck with it! Cornelius, this is my final decision no matter what you say. If you let me go then I'll pretend nothing happened, or you take action and I'll kill myself here. I'd like to see if you can bear the consequences. Please select!”

The scene went silent before a loud laughter sounded.

"Ha ha ha! Ha ha ha ha!" The source of this laughter was none other than Cornelius.

Alba frowned as she listened to Cornelius' crazy laughter, and at the same time, her heart skipped a beat. He's got a bad feeling.

Does he not know what kind of consequences he would have to bear if I killed myself and exposed him?

Not only did he have to endure the pressure from the Fellowes family, he even had to endure the pressure from the man.'

After laughing, Cornelius said in a very gloomy voice, “Alba, you are so smart! As expected of a famous talented lady in the Sacred Continent of the Center, you can think of such a thing and threaten me with suicide. Too bad you underestimated me. If I dare to come here, then I have done enough preparation. Believe it or not, even if you kill yourself here today, nothing will be revealed, and I, Cornelius Lightfoot, will still be able to live comfortably.”

“Cornelius, wall has ears. Sometimes overconfidence is not a good thing!” Reply Alba.

Cornelius' words made him sigh in relief.

'Is this guy trying to silence everyone?

There was a direct disciple of a Sacred Saint on board!'

Alba did not believe that David, the direct disciple of the Sacred Saint master, would have no way of saving his life.

"Is that true? Then I really want to try, and I can't believe you're going to kill yourself."

“You don't believe it? Then let's prove it! I'll make you believe it."

Both sides were silent again. Cornelius waged a fierce battle in his heart. He wanted to bet that Alba would not kill herself. Meanwhile, Alba also bet will not dare to do anything.

Both will gamble now, and the winner will take it all. Cornelius felt that even though he lost the bet, what happened today would not spread as long as everyone under Alba's command was silenced.

This time, he only brought people he could truly trust. If he wins the bet, he can gain the trust of his employer. Then, he would get a guarantee when he competed for the head position in the future.

Alba was also very nervous at the moment. After all, this matter was considered his survival. His forehead and palms were already sweating. Several servants and guards surrounded him, ready to fight to the death.

“Nona Alba, don't worry! If the opponent moves later, we will immediately take out the Blood Bursting Pill and use our lives to fight to the death to try to create a gap for you to survive" said one of the strongest guards.

“Nona! Just run later, and we will do our best to block the enemy for you" said another servant as well.

A bitter smile appeared on Alba's beautiful face under the veil. Cornelius was ready to come. If they were to really fight, how could he escape?

“No! If Cornelius moves, you'd better escape on your own! If you can escape by chance, go back and tell the Fellows family what happened so they can avenge me."

“Nona..”

“Stop talking! Cornelius came with preparations this time, so it's possible none of us got away." Alba is thinking about David.

‘Why has the Sacred Saint disciple not come out yet?’

There's no way David didn't hear what he said to Cornelius. Cornelius also declared that he would silence everyone.

‘How can David sit still?’

The tense atmosphere did not last long. Just as Alba was wondering what David was doing now and why he didn't show up. Two old men suddenly came out of the Lightfoot family's luxurious spaceship, They were extremely fast and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

One of them came to the back of the Fellowes family merchant ship to prevent anyone on board from escaping. The others went straight ahead. Stretching out his right hand, a gigantic golden arm appeared and grabbed the merchant ship. If one was at the Eternal Realm Sovereign Rank, one could use the Eternal Golden Body at will and selectively only use a certain part of it.

In other words, every part of the Sovereign Ranker's body could instantly transform into an Immortal Golden Body and also control its size according to a certain situation. It was unlike Ruler Ranker who could only turn their entire body into a golden giant if they wanted to use the power of the Eternal Golden Body.

At this moment, the old man turned his right hand into the form of an Immortal Golden Body. The rest of his body remained unchanged. That way, it will be more flexible in combat and can be pulled back freely. At the same time, he could concentrate his strength in one place without being scattered. The size of the golden palm was fitting, and it was large enough to take out the Fellowes family merchant ship. Alba was shocked when she saw the old man.

‘Oh no! They were Sovereign Rankers. That bastard Cornelius actually wanted to take action. What should I do?’

None of the people he had brought along on this trip could stop these two Sovereign Rankers. Does he really need to commit suicide to maintain his innocence and the stability of the Fellowes' family?

Alba isn't going to die yet. Even though she is a woman, she is ambitious. Ever since she was young, Alba was the best of her generation in the Fellowes family. However, since she was a daughter, the elders from the Fellowes family never appreciated her. No matter how good he was, he still could not be the heir to the Fellowes family.

Alba is not happy with this, so she wants to change the status quo. He wanted to make the dinosaurs of the Fellowes family regret not taking him seriously. However, now that he met that bastard today, all his ideas and aspirations were shattered.

Alba now only has two ways to proceed. One was to commit suicide before Cornelius captured him, which could also ensure the temporary stability of the Fellowes' family. Others were forced onto Cornelius' ship. In the future, not only would he be accused of cheating, but the Fellowes' family would also suffer from it.

Those people had always been eyeing the Fellowes family, so they would definitely not let go of this opportunity to completely annex them. During Alba's brief internal struggle, the old man's golden giant holds a merchant ship.

They turned on the merchant ship's defenses to block the giant golden hand from outside. When the old man's gigantic golden hand was blocked, he smiled contemptuously.

“They want to block the Eternal Golden Body of the Sovereign Ranker with this small power?

What wishful thinking!’

The old man slightly tightened his giant golden hand.

Brakk!

A voice that frightened everyone on the merchant ship could be heard. Then, the entire ship's defense system collapsed completely. The merchant ship's defense was so vulnerable in front of the old man that it was easily broken.

After destroying the merchant ship's defenses, the old man did not continue to destroy it. If he wanted to kill these people, he would destroy his ship without hesitation. After this blow, no one on the merchant ship would survive.

However, the old man's travel goal was to capture Alba, the third young mistress of the Fellowes' family, instead of killing everyone. He withdrew his giant golden hand and rushed into the control room of the merchant ship in an instant.
