The Strongest Man in the Universe

Chapter 556

The argument of the two men caught the attention of everyone on the 9th floor. Everyone watched with ridicule on their faces. Most of them were invited by Treasure Trove to participate in the auction, so they were quite prestigious people. They are tired of waiting, so it is quite interesting to watch a show like this.

Although Louie is an idiot and cannot read the room, her cousin Eamon still knows how to weigh the pros and cons. After all, he was someone from a sect who had undergone training.

Therefore, he immediately stood up and said, “Friends, forgive me. My cousin always stayed home, so she was spoiled by her family. He has never seen the outside world so please forgive him if he has offended you. I apologize on his behalf. Hospitality makes you rich. The same goes for the others here. I, Eamon Lehman, will pay everyone here today, so I hope everyone will tolerate us."

When Louie heard it, she was not happy. The Newhouse family is very strong in this super large trading zone, and they have a close relationship with Treasure Trove. With Treasure Trove as support, the Newhouse family was like a fish in the water.

Therefore, Louie made this place his territory. How dare that outsider shout at him in his territory?

How would Louie accept such a complaint?

She yelled unhappily, “Eamon, why are you apologizing to her? He interrupted our conversation so that he should apologize to us! They are just dogs barking. How dare they act so haughtily in my territory? How sloppy!”

"Louie Newhouse, shut up!" Eamon's expression changed and he scolded.

"Eamon, you..."

Louie only wanted to retaliate but when she saw how Eamon looked at her, she swallowed the words back into her stomach. He was weak, and he was used to being arrogant. Therefore, he did not realize what was wrong today. However, she believed that her cousin would not hurt her, hence she stopped talking.

Junior Eamon, Miss Dolce, looked at Louie and frowned with her sweet brows. Clearly, he was not happy with what Louie was doing. He thought, 'How did this idiot survive to this day?

Eamon even took me out for a walk with a cousin like this. How unexpected.'

“You're Louie Newhouse, right? Listen to me, you're in big trouble. There are people in the Central Sacred Continent who dare to shout at me and tell me to leave, but you are not worthy of being one of them." the young man Louie shouted said in a deep voice.

"Who do you think you are? Why can't I yell at you when you have the courage to yell at me? So what if I yell at you today? What can you do to me?” snapped Louie.

He couldn't stand others acting so pretentiously around him. Usually, he did that, so no one else could do the same to him.

"If I tell you who I am, you might need to change your pants."

"Sweet, anyone can say arrogant. Show me if you have the guts. If I'm scared, I don't deserve to be a Newhouse!" Louie said indifferently.

The Newhouse family had the backing of Treasure Trove, so how could he be feared by a name?

Moreover, judging from those people, they did not look like someone from most powerful families in Star Kingdom.

“Truly? Listen carefully, my name..” When the young man was about to mention his name, someone came upstairs and cut him off.

David felt something and looked. He saw a man in his thirties walking over. Behind him was an old man. David's brows furrowed as he looked at the old man.

‘Sovereign Ranker final stage!'

This old man was a late stage Sovereign Ranker, and he was on the same level as Celeste.

One had to know that Celeste was an elder of the Iridescent Sect, so she had quite a high status value. If the old man was of the same level as Celeste, he should also have an extraordinary identity. Of course, the man in front of the old man was even more extraordinary.

If he could have a Sovereign Ranker as his protector, he was definitely the heir of a great power. When the two appeared, they suppressed the entire scene. Everyone's eyes were on them.

Even the young man who was about to say his name fell silent upon seeing them. It was because both of them had a powerful energy around them. The Sovereign Rankers, including the two Mid-Sovereign Rankers on the scene, stared at the old man with shock in their eyes.

They never expected to meet a late stage Sovereign Ranker here. Experts masters like this would not have a low status in any strength. Moreover, it was evident that the man walking in front of him had a higher status judging from their position.

The two men who ascended to the top were Archimedes, the first heir to the Lightfoot family, and his patron, Bernard. Archimedes was sent by his family to investigate Cornelius' death. Coincidentally, Treasure Trove held their auction, so how could he miss a meeting that would involve most of the expert masters around here?

Archimedes had just passed by on his way to Treasure Trove, but he heard someone arguing upstairs. Therefore, his interest was piqued, and he decided to go upstairs to take a look. He still had time before the auction.

After the two appeared, they sat at an empty table. Archimedes crossed his legs and said casually, “Please continue! Aren't you guys pretty crowded? Why did you stop when we came in? Just do what you're supposed to do. I just came to rest my feet and have fun. Let's just say I'm not here.”

After a while, no one continued. Eamon had pressed Louie back into his seat by force. At the same time, he warned Louie with his eyes to tell her to shut up. Archimedes turned his gaze to the young man who was about to introduce himself.

“My lord, you're funny. I'm nothing compared to you. I will only embarrass myself if I say it." said the young man respectfully.

He was also warned by the Mid-Sovereign Ranker in secret not to offend the man. Plus, these two who had just appeared were definitely not to be taken lightly, and he was unlike Louie, a brainless idiot.

"Very boring!" Archimedes shook his head.

He wanted to have fun, but unfortunately when he showed up, everyone focused on him and indirectly stopped their conflict.

Archimedes glanced at everyone on the 9th floor. There were quite a number of Sovereign Rankers here, and there were even two intermediate Sovereign Rankers. Although the Treasure Trove position started to shake and slowly lagged behind the other four trading companies after the Palmore family's ambitions began to show, a lion slept stronger than a barking dog. Hence, they still had quite a strong summoning power.

This auction was the Treasure Trove's first big move after so many years. Maybe they are trying to excite everyone and win back their lost customers.

To be honest, Archimedes did not expect the Fellows to simply give up on handing over the Treasure Trove. If the Palmore family controlled the Treasure Trove, with the exception of Holy Root, who among the other top three trading companies would dare to strive to be the best?

This may not be good for Splendor. The best result was that the Fellowes family refused to give up and fought to the death with the Pamore family. However, this is clearly impossible. Once the Palmore family wanted something, the Fellowes family would not be able to fight them. Finally, they had to submit obediently and give away the Treasure Trove that had been passed down from their ancestors. Otherwise, what awaited them was the extermination of their entire family.

The eyes of Archimedes continued to wander. 'Hmm?' He noticed a figure that was different from the others.

Everyone on the 9th floor looked at him, but this person ate his food and drank his wine. Moreover, this person looked out the window as if he did not care about Archimedes. As the first heir of the Lightfoot family, Archimedes was always in the spotlight wherever he went as long as he did not meet those geniuses.

Today, he met someone who did not care about him at all, so his interest was piqued. He turned his eyes to the man. After he saw the person's face, he was a little surprised. 'That guy is so young! He doesn't know anything! Perhaps he was a direct descendant of a family and this was the first time he came out. He had never been bullied by society, so he thought he was everything and had never been bullied by anyone.'

Of course, Archimedes looked at David. David only glanced at Archimedes and Bernard when they first appeared. When he saw that Bernard was a late stage Sovereign Ranker, he was shocked. After that, he stopped paying attention.

Archimedes was not weak, and he had the protection of a Sovereign Ranker, so he must be someone from a great power.

'But why continue?

What does that have to do with me?

If they don't bother me, I don't fight them.'

Now, he only wanted time to pass so quickly that the auction would begin as quickly as possible.

Archimedes looked at David. At the same time, he attracted the attention of the others. Others are very curious about David. David was already here when they arrived. Even stranger was that most of them would sit together in groups of three to five or even seven to eight. David was the only one sitting alone.

He had a long wooden box next to him with something unknown inside. At the same time, there was also a small wine jar on the table. It was not the same as the other wine jars in the tavern. It looked so old that no one knew its age.

When everyone on the 9th floor looked at him, David frowned involuntarily. He had a strong perception, so he knew others were staring at him without looking. David was not interested in being the center of attention.

'OK, I'll go.'

He was not afraid of them, nor was he afraid of late stage Sovereign Rankers. If he were to engage in a fight with a late stage Sovereign Ranker, he might not lose because he had the power of mind and the Evil Splitting Sword, but he really did not like the attention. It would be the same no matter when and where he was.

‘If I can't stay here, I'll wait at Treasure Trove. It's almost time anyway.'

As David was about to get up to leave, Archimedes walked in front of him.

“My friend, you seem to be bored alone. Why don't we drink together?” ask Archimedes.

He wanted to see who this young man was and how dare he ignore him.

“Sorry, I'm busy. You can drink alone if you want, but I won't drink with you." David stood up after he said that.

He put his sword sheath on his back and grabbed to take the Beautiful Grape of a Hundred Flowers and Fruit before leaving.

Archimedes was stunned for a moment.
