The Strongest Man in the Universe

The Strongest Man in the Universe
Chapter 548



It is unknown when David appeared behind the old man. While the old man was restrained by the power of his mind, David stabbed the old man's body while he was unable to move. At the same time, the Evil Splitting Sword started wreaking havoc on the old man's body with countless energies.


Immediately, the old man's body slowly disappeared as he looked at David with horror in his eyes. In the end, not even a hint of his ashes remained. The old man had no idea who had made him so helpless all along.


David was invincible in battles where his opponent had the same level as him if he was helped by the power of his mind and the Evil Splitting Sword. He could even fight or kill someone some rank above him.


This was mainly due to David's powerful mind power and the amazing first-rate Soulbound Weapon, the Evil Splitting Sword. Of course, even more amazing is the super luxurious system. This was because his system was the one that gave him the power of his mind and sword.


After he got rid of the two novice Sovereign Rankers, David began to turn his gaze to the Lightfoot family ship in the distance. Currently, David was standing in the void while holding a long red sword. He was emitting a dazzling light, like a God.


Cornelius. Just now, he was about to ask a novice Sovereign Ranker to return to protect him. However, the old man was killed without a fight, and his body also disappeared into the void. He's really dead.


Now, the old man's killer was staring at him. The opponent shot a murderous gaze at him, and Cornelius inevitably shuddered. As the second heir of the Lightfoot family, this was the first time Cornelius had truly felt the danger of death after living for so long.


Cornelius tried to calm himself down and asked loudly, "Are you planning to kill me?"


"What do you think?" David asked back.


"Do you know who I am?"


“I don't care who you are, I just know that anyone who interferes with my plans deserves to die.”


“I don't know what your plan is. Plus, we don't know each other and there's no hostility between us. I just want to invite Miss Alba Fellowes to have a drink with me on board, that's it.”


“Nona Fellowes is a very important figure in my plans, and I will not let anything happen to her.”


“Because that's the problem! Today, I, Cornelius Lightfoot, admit defeat and I promise I will not cause any more trouble for you and Miss Alba. Let's leave this, how?”


“Do you think I will trust you? I have seen many direct descendants from extended families like you. Even if you bow your head now, you will soon find a way to reply to us once you are safe.”


“I swear on behalf of the Lightfoot family that as long as you let me go, I, Cornelius Lightfoot, will never trouble you and Miss Fellowes from now on."


David shook his head with a smile and said, "I don't believe you!"


"So what do you want?" Cornelius asked with a frown.


At this moment, he was very calm on the surface, but his heart was racing. He was sweating profusely and the clothes on his body were almost drenched.


He clenched his fists tightly and his nails sank into his flesh. As he faced a death crisis, it was useless even if he had a very high status.


“I want you dead. In my opinion, only the dead can't speak.” replied David.


His words caused Cornelius' heart to stiffen. He was so afraid that David would take action even if there was a slight disagreement.


After taking a few deep breaths to calm down, Cornelius said again, “If you want to kill me, you should think clearly. I am the second heir of the Lightfoot family and I play an important role. Not only does my family have two True Saints and three Pre-Saints, but we also have an inseparable relationship with the Ginger family, he said, that had a Sacred Saint and was also one of the top six powers in the Star Kingdom. Never think of escaping Star Kingdom if you kill me.”


David was also a little surprised after hearing this.


‘His family has two True Saints and three Pre-Saint people, and even has an inseparable relationship with the Ginger family who has a Sacred Saint?


This guy did have the capital to be so arrogant. Probably not many people with strong backgrounds in the entire Star Kingdom!’


However, Cornelius' words strengthened David's determination to kill him. What is the least David now?


That is time! If he was given enough time, he would not be afraid of a Sacred Saint.


If he let Cornelius go, he would definitely take revenge on himself judging by his personality. If he managed to persuade his family to send the Pre-Saint, David could only be slaughtered in his current state at the Sovereign Rank.


He might be able to buy more time if he killed Cornelius. Cornelius had no idea that the more he talked about how strong his background was, the less likely David would save him.


"Is that true? Who would have known if I killed you now and then killed everyone you were with?” David narrowed his eyes.


The killing intent in his heart had already begun to seep in. He could act at any time to silence everyone on the Lightfoot family ship.


“You can't imagine a Saint so don't risk it. My grandmaster has many ways to discover what is happening here. You'll be found wherever you hide."


Cornelius seemed to see a glimmer of hope as he watched David remain silent. His desire to survive had greatly increased.


He added, “My friend, as long as you let me go today, I promise I won't take revenge on you, and I won't mention anything about what happened today. How?”


When Cornelius felt there was still hope, an untimely voice sounded.


“David, don't listen to Cornelius nonsense. Although I know nothing about a Sacred Saint, I know the Pre-Saint and True Saint are unable to do as he says, either, and they cannot know what is happening anywhere at any time. They are not almighty. The signal here is blocked, and we are in a remote place in the Central Sacred Continent. So the Cornelius family won't know even if you kill him here." naturally, Alba said this.


Cornelius wanted to destroy him and the Fellowes' family, so how could he miss the opportunity to kill Cornelius? Plus, it was exactly as Alba had said. A Saint is not a god.


"Alba, shut up!" Cornelius shouted furiously.


He still had a small chance of living, but Alba was jumping out to expose him. How did Cornelius manage his anger?


“My friend, listen to me…"


Cornelius wanted to explain but there was no sign of David's existence as far as the eye could see. Soon after, the impending calamity approached him.


Cornelius. 'Oh no! He's already moving! ****** that! That rat! Alba, you b*tch! If he does not expose me, he will not dare to do anything to me!'


"Enable the defense and retreat at full speed!" Cornelius cried out in fear.


After they heard Cornelius' terrified cry, everyone on the spacecraft immediately acted. They activated all the defense systems, and at the same time, they accelerated at full power.


Everyone wants to get out of this situation as soon as possible. Clearly, they were extremely traumatized and shocked by the deaths of the two novice Sovereign Rankers. An opponent could kill a Sovereign Ranker in a split second, let alone these people.


Even if they all rushed forward, it was like hitting a rock with an egg. They're all gonna die. When David heard what Alba said, he knew that Cornelius was lying to him. Therefore, he immediately acted without hesitation.


He approached the Lightfoot family spacecraft and swung his sword, causing a flash of red light. Under this red light, the spacecraft's defense system instantly opened up like a tofu beam, and even the spacecraft's body was instantly pierced by the red light and disappeared into the void.


Even so, the spacecraft was not particularly shaken. One could see just how sharp and dangerous this red light was. Just an ordinary swing of his sword alone could cause tremendous damage. It was a Sword that could cut through everything in the world.


Following the gap left by the red light, David stepped onto the spaceship and was behind Cornelius. Everyone did not dare to move in the control room of the Lightfoot family spacecraft. They widened their frightened eyes and looked at the man who had suddenly appeared.


Cornelius sensed something was amiss, so he turned around slowly. A very young face appeared in front of him.


'Wasn't this the person who killed a novice Sovereign Ranker in a split second?


H-How did he get here?'


As he looked at the face that was filled with killing intent, Cornelius' heart was pounding, and even his body began to tremble uncontrollably. He had lived for so long and this was the first time he had been so close to death.


“Si-Who are you? W-What are you trying to do?” cornelius asked, trying his best to suppress the terror in his heart. However, his trembling voice betrayed him.


“I want you dead. As long as you die, everything that happens here will be buried in the ground. No one will know the truth." replied David calmly.


“Te-My friend, to-please save me. If you let me go, I can promise you anything you want. Money, women, status, whatever you want I can give you."


“Sorry, I don't trust you. So, I can only kill you. You have to blame yourself for suffering such a fate.” David's words became the last blow that destroyed Cornelius.


Buk up!


Cornelius knelt before David. He really has an emotional breakdown. He is still young, and he has a promising future. He doesn't want to die here.


“Master, please don't kill me! Please don't kill me. I beg! If you let me go, I, Cornelius Lightfoot, will be your slave. I'll just listen to you. If you want me to go east, I will never go west.” Cornelius knelt before David and begged with tears streaming down his face.


At this moment, he did not possess the aura of the second heir of the Lightfoot family. He was facing a death crisis, so no matter how high his status was, he would be no different from ordinary people.


David did not sympathize with Cornelius' request. What greeted Cornelius was the red glow of the Sword of David.


As the red light flashed, Cornelius saw the scene before him constantly changing as if he was floating in the air. He did not know that he had been beheaded. However, since he was an Eternal Realm beginner Immortal Ranker, he would not die even if he was beheaded. If he wanted to recover, he needed a lot of energy. Of course, this is under normal circumstances.


David's Evil Splitting Sword had entered Cornelius' body while being filled with boundless energy, killing all the cells within.
