BXBX NOVEL Chapter 447 - Cunning
Lady Chyou chuckled but didn\'t say anything in response to David\'s words.
This immediately made David squint his eyes. He couldn\'t really read this lady\'s strength and couldn\'t even see through her. It was as though there was a veil shrouded over her, making him unable to read through her strength.
David\'s pupils flashed a red light and then returned to normal but his gaze was fixated in the veil lady Chyou had over her face. He could feel some sort of waves emitted from the veil. It was as though the veil was some sort of precious treasure that\'s was able to hide the strength of the user.
"What brings you here lady Chyou." David proceed to drop all pretenses and asked. There was no way she coming to his exact location was purely a coincidence. She definitely came here because she had something in mind. And it was likely her intentions wasn\'t pure at all.
"Killing the three genius students of three different academy within this scared realm certainly is a small matter. As long as there are no witnesses." Lady Chyou said and she then shook her head as she continued.
"But who would have thought you would let Long Zhi escape. Now, the various academy the three geniuses you killed are from would definitely come looking for you when the sacred hunt ends. Which will definitely put you in a tough position. No matter how much of a genius you are, as long as the three academies offer some sort of precious reward for your death, even a peak earth rank expert would get to kill you. And in some cases, even your academy might give you up if you aren\'t anyone important."
Hearing her words, David\'s face had no visible change in expression. From the beginning, he didn\'t think much about the lady since she hadn\'t done anything against him, but who knew she would turn out to be so cunning and shrewd.
Seeing that David has no change in expression as though he hadn\'t figured out her words, Lady Chyou frowned. "Could he be that dumb? Guess I would have to elaborate then."
"From what I know about Long Zhi, after the end of the scared hunt, he would definitely report to the various academy and there will be a massive hunt for you. Even if your academy proceeded to protect you, as long as you come out from within the academy, you will be hunted to death since those people you killed are top geniuses from each academy that also have a huge background and rich clans that could be dated to a hundred years."
David remained silent but then spoke. "What about you?"
"What about me?" Lady Chyou was confused as she asked back.
"It wasn\'t only Long Zhi who witnessed the death of the three people. You also witnessed their death. If I were to kill Long Zhi to shut I\'m up, I will have to kill you as week to shut you up isn\'t that right?" David asked with a malicious smile.
Lady Chyou froze for a second but then chuckled. "Don\'t worry about me, since I have nothing to gain in exposing you, naturally, I will keep my mouth shut. You have my word."
David suddenly snorted. "If this word depended on the word of other people, wouldn\'t this world be a more safer place. Cut the crap and tell me, what\'s in it for you."
The atmosphere instantly became tense. Lady Chyou\'s eyes flashed with a malicious glow. She hadn\'t expected to be spoken to with such disrespect and by a low life at that. Her eyes flashed but she took in a deep breath to calm herself and responded.
"Locating Long Zhi for you is a simple matter, I only require their storage rings and then, you can consider having or have paid me therefore, I will take my leave." Lady Chyou finally stated what she has gone here for.
She hadn\'t come to David for fun but instead, wanted something within the storage rings of the three people he had killed and if she could get the one within Long Zhi\'s storage ring, it was a win win situation for her. She felt that what she had offered was a good deal and there was no way this barbarian would be able to reject her.
"No deal." David said offhandly.
"What?" Lady Chyou was stunned by David\'s reply and thought of she might have heard wrongly.
"I said no deal!" David said impatiently. He still needed to explore this sacred domain and find a secluded place to break through to the Perfect mortal realm and this lady was disturbing him already. He was now starting to feel irritated.
Lady Chyou expression couldn\'t help but darken slightly. "David, you should know the amount of trouble that will come your way if you don\'t finish off Long Zhi." she didn\'t understand why David would be so troublesome. Was he that unreasonable and couldn\'t see reason in her words?
"Yea yea, let the trouble come. Once it comes, I will handle it myself. Its nothing to trouble your pretty self about. If that all, I will take my leave. Thanks again for your warning." David smiled and then he turned around, walking deep into the forest.
Lady Chyou\'s expression instantly turned ugly. A surge of oppressive pressure began brewing in an instant, forming some sort of invincible cyclone around her body. It was as though she was in full control of the wind as leaves blew around her.
David who was already a hundred meter away from her paused and a smile gradually formed on his lips. "She was finally going to attack."
He wanted to see what realm her strength had reached anyways and if he was lucky, maybe kill her off and then kill Long Zhi after. In that way, the trouble when he gets back to the academy will be a lot lesser. But contrary to his expectation, the brewing pressure that formed suddenly slower down and then disappeared.
Lady Chyou had decided not to attack. "Hmph! I will make you regret your decision." she snorted and then turned around to leave.
David couldn\'t help but sigh in his heart watching the residing figure of lady Chyou. "Why is it alway the evil girls that\'s blessed with the prettiest face, such heartache."
He then remembered the pressure she had released. It was definitely much stronger than Long Zhi\'s, almost as strong as the one released by the elder he had smacked with the legendary blade when he was still within the academy.
"But how did she find me?" David scanned himself using his werewolf eyes and his vampire eyes. With those two, there was nothing that could escape his sight. But after numerous scans, he couldn\'t find anything.
He then felt Flint trying to bite his ear off. He squinted his eyes and then grabbed the Little Panther placing it right in front of him.
As Flint saw the two powerful pupils, it\'s growling noise became softer and immediately quietened down as though it was a completely tamed pet. But David knew better. Flint was very stubborn. It would act very tame and obedient when David revealed his true form but would then act like a wild animal soon after.
David shook his head, he didn\'t know what else he could do to make it listen to him and just left him to i\'d as it pleases.
David\'s eyes paused as he saw some yellowish substance on Flint\'s fur. At first he didn\'t think much of it but it was completely odourless which made David more suspicious.
He grabbed some water from within his storage ring and tried to wash it off under the resistance of Flint. Flint hated water. But his eyes opened wide as he saw that he couldn\'t even wash it off despite using much effort.
"This girl is more cunning than I expected." David\'s gaze hardened. He now knew this was how she had been able to track him from before. Since there was no to wash it off, he might as well use it to his advantage. He was are she wound definitely come back.
A thought appeared in his mind and he smiled. But for now, he needed to increase his strength to the Perfect Mortal realm and he needed a secluded place for it. Some of ten herbs within his storage rings should be able to push his mental energy to that realm.
Grabbing Flint and playing him in his chest, David hurriedly left the small cave. Although he wasn\'t scared of the young lady, it was better to be safe than sorry in this type of situation. She might actually be some old monster who managed to enter the sacred domain even though it sounded quite impossible.
"Could be why she didn\'t want to attack herself." David muttered. But it was just a passing thought of his.. He never would have expected his thought would actually be real.
