BXBX NOVEL Chapter 46: Finally done.
After hearing David's words, the bandits started to laugh loudly as if they had heard the biggest joke of the decade.
"Shut up, everyone." A man with arched eyebrows spoke in a loud voice, silencing the laughter. "I don't know where you are from, but let me tell you, you are now in the territory of the Tiger Pass gang." The man's voice was cold, clearly angered by David's attitude. Especially the way David looked at them, as if they were insects crawling under his feet.
Moreover, he couldn't feel a bit of mana from David's body, which made him despise such weaklings who disrespected him even more.
"If you dare to…" However, David didn't give the man a chance to complete his sentence.
"What are you looking at, you stupid girl? Teach this bastard a lesson. I want the heads of all of them." He arrogantly looked at the bandits.
"Oh! So you are depending on this lowly Body Refining Realm Rank 6 girl." The arched-eyebrows man's eyes flashed with understanding, and a ruthless smile appeared on his face.
Of course, David was acting; he wanted to anger the bandits and have them kill the girl with their help. He was sure they wouldn't attack him first, and they could kill the girl to scare him. And as it turns out, David was right. In the next moment, the arched-eyebrows man moved with incredible speed and pierced the bandit girl's chest, killing her instantly.
"Now, what are you going to do, young master?" After killing her, the man turned his head to look at David's reaction, wanting to see his arrogant face turn to one of utter despair.
However, to his surprise, the black-haired man was looking at the air blankly.
A satisfied smile appeared on the man's face.
At this time, David was looking at the screen in front of him with interest.
[Regretfully! You lost one of your clients today. However, the Bank of Eternal Origin can never suffer a loss. Even if she died, the client will have to pay back somehow; therefore, her soul was captured. You now have the following options, keep in mind that you can only choose one.
1 - Extract Client's Crystallion of Life (Sharpshooter, Grade - Uncommon)
2 - Extract memories from her birth till her death.
3 - Any item that client owned in her lifetime.
4 - Do Nothing, let the compound interest do its thing and decide again when the Client dies in her next life.
Please note that capturing the soul and imprisoning it requires a large amount of mana, leaving you only four hours to make a choice.]
This time the options were the same, along with some minor changes; for example, the bank was able to hold the soul for four hours. However, before that, he had to deal with these people. At this thought, David's eyes flashed with coldness.
"Okay! Raise your hands; it's robbery time," David calmly announced.
Ever since he first encountered bandits back in the forest, a plan had started to hatch in his mind.
"Hahahahahah."
"Look! Boss, he has gone mad," an underling of the arched-eyebrows man spoke in a gloating tone.
"Maybe the girl was his little lover," another one spoke while snickering.
They were laughing while pointing their fingers at David, obviously not taking his words seriously.
Suddenly, in front of everyone, David disappeared with a flash of purple lightning and appeared in front of the arched-eyebrows man. Before the man could even process the scene, David grabbed him by his throat and lifted him up in the air.
Arg! Argh!
The man struggled like a fish out of water, his eyes filled with fear and disbelief.
The rest of the Tiger Pass gang members couldn't understand how David had moved so fast.
They all had a single thought in their heads: they were screwed.
"Now, now, don't be afraid. I am not a bloodthirsty person. Quickly give me all of your storage rings, and then I will let you go," David spoke, smiling from ear to ear.
"P~Please! Forgive me, senior. I had eyes but couldn't see Mount Tai," the man spoke in a shaky voice after David loosened his grip.
"Good boy! Now quickly give them to me." David said after throwing the arched-eyebrows man to the ground.
His underlings didn't dare to move and looked at the scene in fear. They knew if David wanted, he could kill all of them in the blink of an eye; any resistance would be futile.
The arched-eyebrows man hurriedly came forward, carrying dozens of rings in his hand that he had collected. "These are all the rings that I have, senior," the man sincerely said, trying his best not to provoke David's ire.
From his experiences, the only way to come out of this situation alive was sincerity. If he tried to act, his fate might be worse than death. The speed at which David had moved had truly shocked him.
David was satisfied with the arched-eyebrows man's attitude and looked at him in a new light. The man was tactful; he clearly knew when to advance and retreat.
"What's your name?" After pocketing the storage rings, David asked in a low voice and paid some spirit stones to the bank for his status report.
In the next moment, a window displaying the arched-eyebrows man's information popped up in front of him.
[Name - Jason Tiger
Crystallization of Life - Master Adapter
Age - 36
Potential - BB grade
Cultivation - Body Refining Rank 9
Investment Grade - BBB
Remark - Careful and quick-witted, doesn't lose hope even in an impossible situation.]
"Senior! This humble one is called Jason Tiger." The arched-eyebrows man quickly bowed and introduced himself.
The way he spoke had completely changed, David was having trouble believing that this was the same person who was threatening him a moment ago.
