David doesn't know that he nearly exposed himself for killing Cornelius. Others could not detect the smell of blood.
Archimedes's overbearing words made David understand that he was here to cause trouble. Even if David retreated, Archimedes would not have left him alone. Moreover, David would never hand over the Evil Splitting Sword and the Beautiful Grape of Hundred Flowers and Fruit. David would not hand over those items even if he had to show his strength and fight a late stage Sovereign Ranker.
"Surge!" david said in a heavy voice.
He was not in the mood to talk nonsense with the other party. Archimedes ignored what David said. He continued to stand in front of David to stop him from leaving. Time passed slowly and the atmosphere became more tense. The spectators around them all had excited expressions on their faces.
“They will finally fight.”
At the same time, they murmured inwardly, 'Son, don't be a coward, fuck him! Then what if they're from the Lightfoot family?
No matter how extraordinary they were, one could still kill their second heir, Cornelius, yet the murderer was still nowhere to be found. Someone must have challenged the astonishing authority of this great family so they stopped acting arrogantly the entire time as if they owned the place.'
"Are you sure you're not going away?" ask David again. At this moment, he was on the verge of anger.
"What if I don't want to?" Archimedes asked casually.
He was not at all bothered by what David said. David raised his right leg and took a step forward. When his feet landed on the ground, there was an explosion of energy emanating from his body.
Boom!
The novice Sovereign Rank energy spread throughout the room with David as the center. The entire 9th floor of the store shook like it was in the middle of a storm. If David doesn't stop him in time, the place will collapse.
Archimedes was only a partial Sovereign Ranker and David was after him. Therefore, under his powerful energy, he was like a small boat in the middle of the ocean that would be swallowed by the waves at any moment.
Tap Tap Tap Tap!
Archimedes was forced to retreat. He finally stopped when Bernard regained his senses and caught him quickly. If Bernard did not act in time, Archimedes would probably be thrown out of the 9th floor by David's energy.
As for the other Sovereign Rankers, they immediately acted after David showed his strength to protect the people around them.
After David pushed Archimedes away, he continued walking forward as there were no more obstacles in front of him. David reached the stairs, where the 9th floor was calm again.
“Uncle Bernard, catch him. I want to crush his bones!” Archimedes shouted furiously.
At this moment, his face simultaneously turned pale and dark. He's obviously angry. He would never have imagined someone who looked so young to have such great power. The energy he showed was at the Sovereign Rank.
One should know that the first heir of the Lightfoot family like him was only a partial Sovereign Ranker. Although he was not far from the Sovereign Rank, he was still not up to that stage. How old is this young man in front of him?
Archimedes had no time to care about any of this. Even if this child had a Saint as his master, he would still have to be taught a lesson.
The Lightfoot family also had Saint Realm masters. In addition, the Ginger family also supports the Lightfoot family! It was the strongest family among the top six powers.
Meanwhile, Bernard had already acted right after Archimedes said that. As Cornelius' patron who had been with him for many years, Bernard knew the temperament of his master. Now that he had suffered such a huge grievance, he would never allow the child.
Bernard quickly approached David to take him down before handing him over to Archimedes. To him, David was just a rookie Sovereign Ranker. Even if he was extremely talented, he was still undeveloped. Maybe he will have a promising future if he is given more time. Unfortunately, he won't have a chance.
A novice Sovereign Ranker could not escape the hands of a late stage Sovereign Ranker. Will a dead genius still be considered a genius?
David was about to descend but Bernard approached him from behind. David did not need to look to know that there was a Sovereign Ranker who would attack him. Normally, David would not mind fighting a late stage Sovereign Ranker, and would fight without any restrictions to test the limits of his strength. However, he couldn't do it today because David didn't want an accident to happen.
This auction was too important to him. Therefore, he must be quick. David did not turn around and immediately took out the Evil Splitting Sword from his back. Dense piercing energy shot out from the cracks of the sheath. Some of them were used to block Bernard while the rest turned around and headed straight for Archimedes. If David wanted to delay this old man, the best way would be to attack Archimedes directly.
Bernard could sense the energy coming from the sword. What surprised him was the sharpness of his energy. A late stage Sovereign Ranker like him could even feel the pain in his skin in front of this energy. He could not let the energy touch his body.
Bernard waved his hand and stopped the sword energy coming at him with his own strength.
“Thank God! Even though his energy was piercing, his power was not very strong. Otherwise, it would be very dangerous.'
Bernard shivered and had no time to care about David. His body disappeared from where it stood before reappearing beside Archimedes.
At this moment, Archimedes was terrified. Countless piercing energies surrounded him. He could sense the death threat from that energy. It was no joke, and he was really in danger of death. The Evil Splitting Sword could slash through everything in the universe, so how could it possibly be a joke?
Even if it slashed at a Saint, it would also easily split the body of a Saint. Archimedes stood on the floor feeling terrified. His body trembled violently and there was a puddle of water under his feet. He had lived for thousands of years, and this was the first time he felt so close to death. So he wet the bed out of fear.
Bernard came to his master and stomped his feet. His own energy spread out and fended off the sword energy around them.
After the energy from the Evil Splitting Sword lost David's guidance, they disappeared into thin air. The danger of death also disappeared along with the sword energy.
Archimedes soon returned to the real world. His eyes immediately turned to David, who was on the stairs. Unfortunately, David was long gone.
“Uncle Bernard, where is the boy?” Archimedes asked with a dark expression on his face.
“Master Archi, he's gone.” replied Bernard.
When he returned to save Archimedes, Bernard had already sensed that David had left. He had no time to stop David at that moment. David attacks Archimedes to delay Bernard so he can escape. He didn't really want to attack Archimedes. If he does not hold him immediately, Archimedes will be severely injured even if he survives.
"Hmm? What's this smell? What a disgusting smell!" Archimedes suddenly smelled stinging urine and quickly pinched his nose.
Then, he looked around to find the source of the smell. Finally, when he looked down, he saw a puddle of water under his feet. 'Is this ... mine?'
Then, he raised his head to look at everyone's shocked face. Archimedes' face turned pale. He was the first heir of the Lightfoot family and the future head of the family. However, he wet the bed after being feared by an unknown random brat in front of so many people.
At this moment, the grievances and anger in Archimedes' heart instantly shot to his head. His eyes were red, and he almost fell down after tripping over. He can't accept this. As soon as news of this spread out, how could he still have the face to become the Lightfoot family's first heir?
How will his family look at him in the future?
How would outsiders look at him?
This would not only embarrass himself, it would also humiliate the entire Lightfoot family. Even if he were to become the head of the family in the future or even become a Sacred Saint, the fact that he once wet the bed in a public place would never be erased. It will follow him forever and be the greatest shame of his life.
'What should I do?' Archimedes asked in a panic.
'If news of this comes out, my life will be over. NAY! I can't let this happen.'
Archimedes wanted to kill everyone on the scene and leave no one behind. That way, none of what happened today will come out. However, he rejected this idea after a second. Not because Archimedes had a guilty conscience and could not do so.
After all, Bernard was only a late stage Sovereign Ranker, so it was impossible for him to kill so many novice Sovereign Rankers and the two Mid-Sovereign Rankers on the scene secretly.
Moreover, this place was very close to Treasure Trove. If Treasure Trove were to hear it, the news of him wetting would be known throughout the entire Sacred Continent Center tomorrow. Then, it would also spread throughout Star Kingdom. If that happens, there will be no turning back. He's gonna be the latest gossip in town. Archimedes would never let this happen.
David only used a very short time to force Archimedes to retreat, unleashing his Evil Splitting Sword energy, and instantly blurred.
Now, everyone on the 9th floor was still in shock. The young man whom they considered to be the least important and weak not only escaped the hands of the late stage Sovereign Ranker of the Lightfoot family, he even scared the first heir of the Lightfoot family into bedwetting.
He had challenged everyone's worldview on the scene. The Lightfoot family is a big family. They were ranked top even in Star Kingdom, let alone in the Central Sacred Continent. However, their first heir and the future head was so cowardly. He would become a laughingstock if news of this came out.
At the same time, everyone was lamenting how powerful David was Even if that sword energy did not target them, they could still sense how dangerous it was. If it could scare the first heir of a large family into bedwetting, it would definitely not be that simple.
Several young women on the scene watched blankly as David left. They feel sorry! If they knew how powerful David was, they would approach and tease him. However, he had already left by now, and they did not even get his name, let alone his contact details. Where are they going to look for him?
Too bad.
Angelica Dolce, Eamon's junior sitting next to her, stared at the stairs. An expression of excitement appeared in his eyes. He muttered in his heart, ‘This guy is very handsome and very strong. I want to know him and be his friend.”
David is long gone.
