The Strongest Man in the Universe

The Strongest Man in the Universe
Chapter 546



Alba stared blankly at the smiling face in front of her, her expression a little confused. At the same time, his heart skipped a beat, and his breathing also began to weigh heavily. After living for so many years, this was the first time she felt unexplainable feelings towards a man. One should know that Alba never felt this way even when she was with her fiance, the man who charmed many women in Star Kingdom. Alba did not feel David was annoying the first time she met him, and she did not feel that way now that she saw David's smiling and contagious face so close to her. Instead, he began to unconsciously like her. Alba was never an emotional person, and she was always very rational. He will think twice about everything. Love was never a necessity in his life. He has his own aspirations and aspirations. Alba has never lost her mind even though the fiance arranged for her by her family is one of the nicest young men in Star Kingdom and is adored and sought after by many women in Star Kingdom who want to get married with him. However, after calmly analyzing her family situation and the situation she would experience after marrying him, she secretly tried to escape from the situation.


However, the man was too strong and his family was one of the few top powers in Star Kingdom with Saints. Therefore, Alba never had a chance. Since the Fellowes' families were on the weaker side, they did not have the right to break off the engagement. Otherwise, their family's death would have accelerated if they humiliated the other party. Therefore, after Alba found out that David allegedly had a Holy Saint behind him, she thought he had a little hope. This was the only hope he had seen after all these years. Without the Holy Saint as support, the Fellowes family would never have publicly severed ties with that family. Alba wanted to cry when she heard David's calm greeting. He has borne too much burden. He wants to change his fate but at the same time, he wants to prove himself and help his family out of their predicament. Even the combined youth and heirs of the Fellowes family would not be as important as Alba. Sometimes Alba thinks she doesn't have to care and doesn't think about anything because she's a woman her family doesn't appreciate.


He felt that he had to follow the path set by his family. He doesn't care what happens to his family. She just needs to know her place and become a dutiful wife after she gets married.


Alas, Alba is more eager to get ahead in life than most men, but she is destined not to be able to do that. Because her family does not appreciate her, she insists on proving herself.


Alba wanted to see what the elders and grandmasters of her family would look like if she changed the situation of the Fellowes family and helped them out of their current predicament.


After David asked that, he felt something strange with Alba. Not only did he not speak, he also looked at her with a sad expression.


‘What happened?‘


He watched Alba closely, so he was sure he was not hurt. If Alba was in danger, he would have acted much earlier. He won't wait until the end.


'Is he scared?


It seems like this is already a little overkill!'


After all, Alba was the third young mistress of Treasure Trove! How could he be intimidated by a rookie Sovereign Ranker?


He should have seen more than one Saint master, what a Sovereign Ranker meant.


David would never believe it if the Fellowes family said that they did not have a Sacred Saint because they could control the Treasure Trove, one of the top five trading companies in the Central Sacred Continent. Although David had doubts, he did not think too much about it.


David asked again, “Nona Fellowes? Is something wrong? Are you hurt?"


The second question finally brings Alba back to the real world. He also felt like he was embarrassing himself. He had only known David for a few days and did not know him very well. How could he show such emotions?


No matter how great of a mistake he had suffered in the Fellowes' family these years, he never thought of crying. However, he suddenly had this urge in front of David, whom he had just met a few days ago. This was something that this strong woman could not accept.


Alba quickly turned her head, reset her emotions, and replied, "I'm fine!"


"That's great. Don't worry, Miss Fellowes. No one can hurt you when I'm around" David said confidently.


He originally planned to look for an opportunity to show off his skills in front of Alba and make her help him wholeheartedly. This sudden event was a blessing from the Gods.


Only then did Alba remember. David actually blocked the novice Sovereign Ranker who wanted to capture him and save him.


‘Did David have the power of a Sovereign Ranker, or did he rely on the means given by a Sacred Saint master?’


If that's the last one, Alba understands. After all, a Sacred Saint was not someone an ordinary person could understand. Although Alba was the third young mistress of the Fellowes family, she had never met a Sacred Saint.


“Who are you? How dare you interfere in the Lightfoot family business? Let me go if you are smart and hand over the third young mistress of the Fellowes family. If you do that, I can pretend this never happened. Otherwise, you will not be able to bear the consequences."


David grabbed the old man's wrist, and the old man could not move. Knowing that the other party was stronger than himself, the old man could only threaten David with their hidden supporters, hoping that David would not interfere in his affairs.


“Older, you don't have to threaten me. Now that you make a move, I will protect Miss Fellowes. As for the Lightfoot family, I have never heard of them. If you want revenge, just come to me. I'll block everything you throw at me." replied David without hesitation.


He did not want to cause any trouble as this did not fit his low profile style. However, he had no choice.


If he wanted to get Alba's help, he couldn't just see her get hurt. Unfortunately, if he helped her, he would offend the family that was at odds with the Fellowes family. Even so, this was fine as long as he got Alba's help. He will soon be able to break through the Saint Realm. Therefore, David decided to perform wholeheartedly.


This kid is so strong. Hence, he had to take the chance and use the Lightfoot family background to suppress the other party. He wanted to scare the other party. Otherwise, it would be difficult for him to escape from this matter today.


David suddenly realized. It turns out that the Lightfoot family is the family behind Splendor. As the saying goes, people in the same field are enemies. Splendor and Tresure Trove were both ranked among the top five trading companies in the Sacred Central Continent.


The Lightfoot family and the Fellowes family each control a large trading company. Therefore, it can be understood that they do not have a good relationship with each other. However, it was not appropriate for the Lightfoot family to block and threaten the direct descendants of the Fellowes family like this.


‘Will the two families fight?


Didn't the merchants appreciate the harmony and believe that hospitality would make them rich?'


“David is a guest of the Fellowes family. You must first have the ability to make his life like hell in the Central Sacred Continent. After all, could Cornelius represent the Lightfoot family? I'm afraid he can't! He was only the second heir of the Lightfoot family. He should have only boasted once he surpassed Archimedes Lightfoot and became the number one heir!” Alba immediately revealed the old man.


“Nona Alba Fellowes, Mr. Cornelius came with preparations this time. He has made every possible preparation so that you cannot escape. Surrender obediently.” the old man began to threaten Alba again.


At the same time, he also tried to figure out a way to escape David's control. However, no matter how hard he tried, David's hand was like a big tang. He tightly gripped the old man's wrist, preventing him from moving.


"Miss Fellowes, what should I do to her?" david asked, looking at Alba.


"David, if I say to kill him, can you do it?" Alba asked back.


"Kill him? Just him or everyone outside?”


“Because we must kill, we must kill them all. Do you want to wait for them to go get help? If you don't mind the problem, you can let it go, but you should be careful in the future. I Can Protect You if You are within the territory of My Family, but if You leave, You can only depend on Yourself. Of course, I know you won't be afraid of them, but it might reveal your identity prematurely."


Alba's words provided much inspiration for David. If he killed all the members of the Lightfoot family, does that mean he won't be revealed?


Otherwise, when Cornelius returned, he would definitely find a way to take revenge on himself. David was still able to hold out for the first few tries. However, what if the Lightfoot family sensed something was amiss and directly sent a Saint master?


If he did not break through to the Saint Realm back then, he would only be slaughtered. As he thought about this, David gradually began to have a killing intent. Celeste is still waiting for him. Celia and the others were also waiting for her protection. No one could interfere with his plan to become stronger.


The old man also felt a sudden killing intent emerge from David. Hearts frozen. Without any more hesitation, he exerted all the strength in his body. With his free hand, he hit David with all his might. The blow came very suddenly.


The old man moved as soon as David showed his killing intent. If David doesn't let go, he'll have to endure the blow. The old man wanted to let David off guard. If he were to break away, he would not stay here but instead, he would immediately leave and go to join another rookie Sovereign Ranker. After that, the two will join forces against David.


David would naturally not let him get his wish. Now that he had decided to kill the old man, he would not waste any more time. With a burst of strength, he grabbed the old man's hand and pulled it hard. Then, with his other arm, he grabbed Alba and retreated quickly.


He was not afraid of the opponent's blow. But Alba was only a Peak Ruler Ranker. So David was worried that he would hurt her unintentionally. Therefore, he decided to retreat with Alba first.


He would wait until Alba was safe before killing the old man. David backed away while hugging Alba.


“Aahh!"


The old man suddenly screamed. His voice was deafening. Everyone in the control room had to cover their ears to hold it in. It turned out that the old man's arm was torn after David pulled it.


The severe pain from losing his arm made the old man howl loudly. An Eternal can regenerate their severed limbs, but that will take time.


Moreover, such pain was unavoidable, and it would also lead to a considerable decrease in combat effectiveness. David retreated to the corner and lowered Alba. Then, he disappeared in an instant and headed towards the old man at high speed.


At this moment, the old man was still gripping the area where his arm was lost due to being torn. He's in a lot of pain. He could feel David approaching.


At this moment, the old man no longer cared about the pain of losing his arm.
