The Strongest Man in the Universe

Chapter 570

“David, I told Grandpa Val about your cooperation. He needs to understand something about you. But don't worry, Grandpa Val is the person I trust the most in the family. He will never hurt me.” promised Alba carefully.

He was worried that he would make David angry. After all, this was between the two of them. Now, he had informed a third party of their secret without David's consent.

Of course, David wouldn't be angry. He was a Saint now, so he was more confident. David was at a disadvantage against Valerio. Now, he's the one in charge.

It would be good for the head of Treasure Trove to know this. With his help, David was confident the development of the East League Trading Company would accelerate. If they progressed faster, he would also spend money faster.

David looked at Valerio and said, “What do you want to know, Mr Valerio? You can ask me. I'll tell you everything I know.”

“David, I heard your master gave you the Soulbound Weapon when you came out." Valerio pondered before asking.

He decided to start with the first-rate Soulbound Weapon that Alba mentioned.

"That's right!" David answered directly.

"Can I see it? Don't misunderstand me. I heard Alba say that your weapon is very unique and I am very interested in Soulbound Weapons, so I am curious and want to see it. I don't mean anything else but that."

"It's okay." David got up after saying that.

Then, he placed the wooden sheath on the table. “Do not hesitate to see it. However, I have to tell you that you can only see and have no idea of this. My master gave this to me, so it's not for sale. My master won't let me if I sell it." added David.

"Don't worry. A noble will not steal. I just want to see it and I'll never have another idea about it" Valerio said.

“Please then." David pointed at Valerio.

Valerio carefully opened the scabbard.

The srek!

A long sword with a red light appeared before his eyes. At the same time, there was also a bone-chilling coldness as boundless piercing energies flowed before him.

'What is this?' Valerio was stunned when he saw the Evil Splitting Sword.

As the head of Treasure Trove, he had seen many treasures over the years. A normal person could not compare to Valerio in terms of knowledge and experience. Even Alba, who had been researching weapons since she was young, was miles away from Valerio.

'This is not wrong anymore! This long red sword in front of me is definitely a first-rate Soulbound Weapon! This was even the best among first-rate Soulbound Weapons!'

Valerio had seen two first-rate Soulbound Weapons that the Fellowes family had. Those two weapons were nothing compared to this Sword. This must be a weapon qualified for a Sacred Saint to possess.

Unexpectedly, master David gave it to her.

Since he could give such a valuable weapon to his students, Valerio could see how close they were.

It would not be an exaggeration to say that even fathers and sons would not have such a good relationship.

“David, may I know what this sword is called?”

“My master said it was called Evil Splitting Sword. That sword can cut all evil things and everything that exists in the universe.”

“Evil Splitting Sword's? What a name! Since your master can give you such a precious treasure, you must have a good relationship with him." Valerio lamented.

“Of course! I relied on the old man since I was young, and I was his only student. How can we not be close?” David said as if it was a normal thing.

Valerio smiled bitterly inside.

‘This child is simple-minded, so he may not know what this means. Even a father might not be so kind to their biological son. Not only did he give David trillions of Star Dollars before he came out, he even gave David a first-rate Soulbound Weapon that could represent his identity. Anyone with sharp eyes would not attack David once they saw this sword. It was because they would not be able to handle the rampage of the true sword owner.'

After the wooden box was closed, the chill from the Evil Splitting Sword disappeared and the room returned to normal. Valerio lamented in his heart. He had been the head of the Treasure Trove for so many years and he had seen so many treasures, but this word surprised him the most.

Of course, Valerio did not rule out the fact that David might have found this in ruins somewhere in the universe. However, this possibility was so low that he could ignore it.

It's not easy to go to the ruins. Destruction with first-rate Soulbound Weapons would definitely have a high civilization. Even calling it a narrow escape would underestimate him. If anyone below the Saint Realm went there, they would definitely die. It would be difficult to stay alive, let alone come out with treasures.

“Thank you for letting me see such a rare weapon, David. It opened my eyes. I have long been the head of Treasure Trove, but this is the first time I have seen such a precious treasure. This is very surprising. I'd like to meet your master if I have the chance." Praise Valerio generously.

“You're too good, Mr. Valerio. You should have a chance to meet my master in the future. I came out this time with a mission from him. When I left, he said that our sect had been hiding for so long and it was time for us to come out. Otherwise, Star Kingdom might soon forget us" David said casually.

“May I know the name of the sect you belong to? Is it in the historical record?”

“Sorry, Mr. Valerio. I can't tell you for now. After all, I have just come out and I have yet to complete my mission, so he won't let me reveal too much about our sect. Otherwise, I'll be punished once he's out."

“Sorry, I shouldn't ask such a question. Please forgive me." Valerio said apologizing.

He made himself look very humble. It could even be said that Valerio treated David with a completely different attitude this time around. He had previously viewed David as a junior. Now he looked at David like he was Anders, heir to one of the top powers in the Star Kingdom.

Although David was still younger than Valerio, his status and identity were now completely different. Valerio did not dare to treat David like a junior or criticize him.

Since David could spend 11 trillion Star Dollars at auction just to defeat Archimedes, Valerio knew this kid was not simple. That's why he called David. But money means nothing.

Fellowes' families were indeed respected, but they still ended up in this part of the territory. If they did not find a way to save themselves, everything that the Fellowes family had would fall into the hands of others, and the glory of their family would also become history.

What Valerio saw about David at the moment was not only that he was rich, he also had a first-rate Soulbound Weapon. For a long time, this weapon was something that could not be bought or measured with money.

There were many high-level Soulbound Weapons auctioned off in Star Kingdom. However, no one had ever auctioned a first-rate Soulbound Weapon before. If a first-rate Soulbound Weapon was auctioned, it would definitely cause an uproar in all the powers in Star Kingdom, including the top six powers.

In the end, the only one qualified to purchase it was one of the six powers with the Sacred Saint. Others should not think about it. Because of David's identity, Valerio humbled himself as best he could to get on David's good side. He believes 80 to 90% of what Alba is saying now.

“You need not blame yourself, Mr. Valerio. I had the help of Miss Alba Fellowes when I came to the Central Sacred Continent, so I am very grateful. If you need me in the future, please let me know. I won't say no as long as it doesn't go against my principles. Plus, my teacher once said, I should have more friends. Now that I'm here, Miss Fellowes is my second friend and I treat all my friends sincerely."

David lied without even batting an eye. He kept trying to create a special identity for himself in front of Alba, that is, the identity of the disciple of a Sacred Saint. Only by doing so could he gain Alba's support in building and developing a new trading company.

Now, Alba almost completely trusted him. Even so, this is not enough. It would be best if he could help him develop a new trading company and spend trillions of Star Dollars. However, he did not know how long it would take. This meant that he could only help David earn millions of luxurious points to upgrade from Pre-Saint to True Saint at most.

Meanwhile, it took tens of millions of luxurious points to get to the Sacred Saint. It was almost impossible for him to achieve this in such a short period of time if he tried to use ordinary methods. Therefore, David immediately drew up a crazy and bold plan in his head.

He believed that the East League Trading Company would reach a certain scale by the time he reached True Saint Rank. When that happened, he would discuss the merger and acquisition with the grandmaster of the Fellowes family. Didn't they want to escape their current predicament?

After succeeding, David would become a Sacred Saint and become one of the strongest people in the Star Kingdom. Other than the strength of his mind and the God of Thunder Hammer, he would excel among Sacred Saint masters.

When that happened, it didn't matter if he didn't have a Sacred Saint master as a backer. This is because David will be his biggest supporter. If he wanted to make that plan come true, he would have to do this step by step. First, he had to make Alba and Valerio trust him 100% and dispel all their worries.

“Thank you, Mr. David. I'm honored to be your friend." Alba thanked David from one side.

“Don't say that, Miss Fellowes. Since we are friends, we should treat each other equally. It will make us sound like strangers if you say things like how honorable I am.”.

"I understand, Mr. David," Alba said in a small voice.

“David, may I know when your teacher will come here? I want to meet him on behalf of my family. If you think I'm not qualified enough, I'll ask the grandmaster to do it" Valerio said suddenly.

“What are you saying, Mr Valerio? There is no such thing as qualified or not. My master is very relaxed, so he doesn't have many rules. You can see him whenever you want if he's around, but I'm afraid now is not the time. I have to complete the mission before I can contact him" David said after pondering.

After he heard that, Valerio thought to himself, 'I think he's just relaxing with you! How will he be so relaxed with others?

If a Sacred Saint was not grumpy, would they still be a Sacred Saint?'
