Transmigrated as Investment Banker in Cultivation world

The punch created a light shockwave that made Lamia's white gown flutter.

Lamia expected the table to turn into dust instantly, but the result made her reconsider.

The table remained intact; moreover, there was not a single scratch on it.

Looking at this scene, her eyes unconsciously narrowed.

"And not just this, my Queen." Markos wasn't done yet. In the next moment, he punched the floor with all his strength.

However, the result was the same.

No matter how much he tried, he wasn't able to damage the floor.

Lamia took a deep breath and commanded, "Send this table to the Research Department and also, I want all the information about the person who managed this place."

Meanwhile, unaware of the destruction of his property, David was madly running away from the city without stopping.

The five of them moved like a gust of wind through Deadwood Forest. They only stopped after an hour when David asked them to halt.

Luckily, they found an isolated cave.

Ignoring their puzzled expressions, David asked Sebastian to guard him while he rested.

Of course, he didn't need to rest; it was just that time was running out. If he didn't hurry, his opportunity to absorb Bryan's memories would disappear.

After finding a comfortable position to lie down, he accepted the transfer of memories.

Instantly, David felt as if someone had pierced his head with a sharp knife.

Painful! It was too painful, but he could only silently grit his teeth.

Unknown information started to flood his mind.

As a child chasing after butterflies.

As a teen chasing after cute girls.

And finally, a bout of sadness when he awakened his ordinary crystallization of life.

Mocking from his parents and peers.

Furious, he left his home and started his own business.

Scenes continued to play in David's head like a movie. David felt like a spectator looking at the world from Bryan's eyes.

And finally, the moment arrived when Bryan was vaporized.

Argh!

David opened his eyes and groaned in pain, his body covered in cold sweat.

Mary was looking at him with a strange gaze, not understanding why he had suddenly started to scream like a girl.

Not caring about her, David reviewed the memories he had received.

Instantly, a happy smile appeared on his face.

His choice was worth it.

It turned out Bryan wasn't just a trader but one with an interest in geography. He knew the area surrounding the Blackthorn Empire like the back of his hand.

Now David had clear ideas about where he was and what route he had to take to reach the Rising Sun Empire safely.

According to the memories, the Blackthorn Empire was located at the border of the Human Domain, beyond which was an area occupied by unknown races of the Pandora world.

And you may ask, what was the Human Domain? Well, in simple words, it is a region in one corner of Pandora dominated by four Empires and some regional associations.

The Blackthorn Empire.

The Rising Sun Empire.

The Nether Empire.

And lastly, the Ultimate Heaven Empire. These four Empires occupied an area surrounded by mountains from all sides.

The total land area occupied by these four Empires was multiple times that of Asia.

Just a hundred years ago, humans used to think they were alone in this world, but their illusions were crushed when the Blackthorn Empire was attacked by the Sithians.

Moreover, from a book that Bryan had read once, humans weren't originally natives of this world but had appeared from outer space, and as a result, most of the races looked at them unfavorably.

The Rising Sun Empire was situated northwest of the Blackthorn Empire.

If he wanted to get there, he had to take the route that merchants often took, passing through the second biggest city of the Blackthorn Empire, Ashwood City.

The distance between these two cities was extremely huge; it would take at least a month to reach there.

After deciding his next course of action, David got up and started to move again.

Right now, they were still in the danger zone, so it was not wise to stay here for a prolonged period.

After following the directions, they managed to find the route that led to Ashwood City.

And just as its name suggested, the city was surrounded by Ashwood trees.

Not just Ashwood and Deadwood City—all the cities of the Blackthorn Empire were surrounded by various species of trees.

Time continued to pass, and soon the gentle rays of the sun illuminated the forest.

David's group ran throughout the night. Even though he was a Peak Body Refining Realm cultivator, his body was starting to feel tired.

"Okay! Let's stop here and rest." David stopped and spoke while taking deep breaths.

His chest rose and fell due to exhaustion.

Compared to David, the other three were in even worse condition. At his words, smiles filled with unprecedented happiness appeared on their faces.

Even the cold-faced Ruby had a smile on her face for a moment.

"Ahh! I want to have a coffee." David muttered in a tired voice and sat down on the ground.

However, just as he was about to purchase a cup of coffee from the shop, the sound of something moving through the air at high speed resounded in the surroundings.

David hurriedly rolled away.

In the next moment, a huge arrow drilled into the ground.

"Don't move."

"This was just a trailer; if any of you even move a single muscle, then don't blame me for being ruthless."

A woman's voice echoed from all directions.

David was mad. He had just run for hours, and just as he was about to take a sip of coffee, someone targeted him.

"Woman, I don't care who you are, but don't let me find you." David thought coldly, a ruthless look in his eyes.
