"Yes! I want to isolate myself here for a day. The Lord Ruler of Moonstone City only needs to ensure the safety of my sister for that long. After that, I'll owe you a favor. What do you think, Mister?" David asked.
'this………'
It was hard for Arion to resist. Frankly, he desperately wanted help from David. After all, he was a young man with a bright future. In the future, he would most likely control the top powers in Leila's domain. Making friends with people like this and getting help will definitely benefit him someday.
But if he offended the Clementine and Maven families for the sake of getting this help, his losses would probably outweigh his gains.
The point is that Arion does not know David's true intentions of alienating himself. In the end what he had to choose, Arion could not make up his mind for a while. Agree, that means a huge gamble.
Just as Arion was hesitating in his heart, David said again, "Master Moonstone City Lord, there may be no danger at all in one day. It's been five days, and I haven't seen the two great families of Clementine and Maven coming to bother me. They still had to prepare their strength first. If Master can get some help from me, why is the Moonstone City Lord still hesitating? Do you think my help, David Lidell, is worthless?"
"No, no, no! Young Master Lidell misunderstood. In fact, the first time I saw you, this old man knew that Young Master Lidell had a bright future, therefore I asked Daran to apologize to you directly. But as a Moonstone family, this old man represented the Moonstone family in every move. Facing the two great families Clementine and Maven joined, there was nothing the Moonstone family could do." Arion smiled wryly.
David did not expect Arion to reject him. He thought, the other party as the city lord, would have courage. He did not expect such an event. It seems that the combined strength of the Clementine family and the Maven family cannot be underestimated.
Since Arion had already said so, David would not continue to impose himself. The big problem was to delay it for a few days, then leave the Spirit Cage realm and re-break through after the first wave of attacks from the Clementine and Maven families had passed.
He did not think that with the first level soul power of the Ancient Lord, he would not be able to deal with the Clementine family and the Maven family. By far, the strongest person David had ever encountered in the Spirit Cage realm was a mysterious person back then. But if they meet again now, it is not certain who is strong and who is weak.
And that mysterious powerful figure was the one who was rummaging through the treasures of the eight main cities. It can be seen from this. With the strength of that mysterious person, he could already walk sideways in the eight major cities of the Spirit Cage realm. After the treasures were sent by the large group, they did not even dare to fart.
After concluding this, David felt that with his own strength, he could almost do whatever he wanted in the Spirit Cage realm.
"If that's the case, then I won't bother you anymore, sir. Don't worry, Lord Ruler of Moonstone City. I, David Lidell, will not take this matter to heart, and it will not affect our relationship. I beg you to leave!" David said and got up to leave.
Just walking a few steps, he was stopped by Arion's voice. "Young Master Lidell, please wait a moment!"
"Is there anything else that the Moonstone City Lord wishes to say?" ask David.
Arion thought for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "Young Master Lidell, are you sure you will only retreat for one day?"
"of course! At most one day. But maybe not until!" David nodded.
"That's great! Young Master Lidell, please seclude yourself in this City Lord Mansion! Even if the Clementine and Maven families come, I will fight for one day for your sake."
Arion finally decided to bet, he was very optimistic with this young man. He felt the other party was not the type of person who would escape. Maybe today will be the determinant of his future.
"Master Moonstone City Lord, actually, you don't have to hesitate. I don't have to isolate myself for now. It's not too late to step down after the Clementines and the Mavens came" David said.
He really did not need to choose this time to break through. He just felt that he needed to reach a point that made him feel safer. That's why he wants to isolate himself. The stronger his strength, wouldn't he be more confident?
It's just that he didn't expect Arion would hesitate to help him keep Pebbles for a while. David thought it was just a trivial matter, but in Arion's view, it was a shocking event.
"Young Master Lidell, I've been determined to approve you. So please don't refuse."
"Then let's do it!" David no longer disputes.
"When are you going to start?"
It was only less than 30,000 of the 2.8 million needed to break through.
"An hour's left!"
"okay! Then I will arrange for someone to prepare a room for Young Master Lidell."
"Thank you, Lord Ruler of Moonstone City."
"Thank you back!"
An hour later.
David M appears in a closed room within the City Lord's Mansion in Amber City. In order to prevent someone from entering and finding that he was there, he also broke the door.
The little girl Pebbles was sitting outside, guarding the door for David, propping up her little head with her little hands. Arion was also beside him, looking at Pebbles who was as sweet as a porcelain doll, inevitably he asked, "Little friend, what's your name?"
"Grandfather, my name is Pebbles!" the little girl answered.
David had told her to listen to the old man before isolating herself.
"Pebbles? This name is so funny! Is David your brother?"
"Uummm.." The little girl tilted her head and thought about it.
"Yes and no!"
"Yes, and no? Whatchu mean?" Arionn looks confused.
"He's my brother now, but not when I grow up."
"Why is that?" Arion asked curiously.
"Grandfather, you are so stupid! Because I'll marry him when I grow up, so he won't be my older brother then." The little girl said with a smile.
When it comes to marrying David, the little girl will be in a very good mood. Having followed David all this time allowed him to recover some of his memories. It's basically all about David.
She remembers that she had made a deal with David that she would marry him when she grew up.
Arion was dumbfounded upon hearing those words. 'A little girl of seven or eight really knows about getting married? Children today are very wise.'
He initially thought the little girl was David's real sister. Now it seems he's wrong. Of course there are other possibilities. After all, what does a seven or eight year old girl know?
'Perhaps while following her brother every day, she had no idea where she had heard that husband and wife could never be separated, so she immediately demanded to marry her brother so that they would never part.'
"Pebbles, where are your parents?" Arion asked again.
