BXBX NOVEL Chapter 533 - Sinister Plot
"But how are you so sure I wouldn\'t betray you?"
"Well, I\'ve decided to kill you if you didn\'t ask that question in the 10 seconds frame I gave you. Luckily you have three left."
David\'s countenance changed slightly. It was very dangerous dealing with old geezers like this.
But since the old man had been honest about his daughter, David let it slide.
"What about your eldest son? From what I\'ve seen, he wouldn\'t go down without a fight for the throne." The energy waves roiling off the eldest young master was intense and from this, David figured he was a hardcore determined person. Possibly in his mind, he already had the throne to the Qilin Palace, but he had no idea what life had planned.
If the young princess had been born an ordinary person, she might not have had a chance at the throne, but it turns out she was born with the bloodline of a Qilin.
There was no need to practise any technique or waste hours of training, she only needed to become of age and her bloodline would naturally activate, revealing itself.
By then, her strength would soar incredibly instantly becoming an Integrated Phaser at the early stage. Even David had only heard about such a rare phenomenon as fantasy, he had never seen it nor thought it was possible.
Hearing David\'s words, the Family head\'s eyes flashed. "When the time comes, I will deal it. Don\'t bother about such trivial matters."
David shrugged, he was happy not to talk about it either. "I need to leave before Young master Alan gets suspicious."
The young man nodded his head. "You\'re right, my son Alan is quite the character. You can take your leave."
Davis nodded his head and turned around to head outside the hall.
"What we discussed here remains between us right?" The man suddenly asked, making David pause in his steps.
David\'s hands touching the large door clenched softly. And he responded innocently. "What did we discuss?"
The man smiled. "Good."
David didn\'t respond and instead opened the door to leave the hall. There, young master Alan and the other four people members of the group were waiting patiently for him.
Young master Alan was gazing at David with a thoughtful look on his face. "Hope there\'s no problem?"
David smiled. "No, no problem at all. The Great Qilin knew my master, we were just talking about that."
The others nodded their head, but then they wondered who David\'s master was for the Great Qilin to personally know him.
"Oh." The young master nodded but he was clearly not convinced.
"There\'s not much time left, we need to leave for the place." Young master Alan said and then they exited the Palace and hopped onto a luxurious Sky Cruiser. David finally got a room to himself
As he closed the doors, there wasn\'t a single bit of smile on David\'s face, his face was knitted as he was deep in thought.
The Family head had revealed to him what seem to be the first-ever complete bloodline from birth to him. Something like this was supposed to be kept top secret, but the old man had casually revealed that information to David.
Was it because the old man thought his master Mr White was so important to him that he wouldn\'t betray him?
"No." David shook his head. Although the man looked young, he was probably the Grand masters age or even older. Such an old geezer would never make such a mistake, trusting David with that valuable pieces of Information, unless there was leverage even greater than that particular information, but to David, while he cared about Mr White, he could easily sell the information to the other eight families and gain reputation and invaluable resources.
Moreover, he could make them promise to find his master and with the strength, of one of the eight families, it should be possible as long as Mr White was still alive even if he was in the custody of the Qilin family.
"So why did that old geezer tell me!?" David was feeling frustrated as he couldn\'t think of a reason the old man told him something like that naturally, he didn\'t trust the old man one but .
"Unless he was lying." Hazel suddenly inputted, making David freeze, he hadn\'t thought of that.
"T-thats not right, I could tell he was speaking the truth." David frowned. He had always trusted his intuition and he would know if he was been lied to or not, that was one of the advantages of having great mental strength.
"A vampire getting compelled by a non-vampire? Haha, this is the first I\'m hearing of such a thing." Hazel\'s laugh resounded in David\'s head.
David was frozen stiff on the couch. He couldn\'t believe he had been made to believe something so ridiculous!
His facial muscles trembled as he thought more and more about it. Gradually, the fog in his mind cleared and he was finally able to think straight.
"Damned old man!" David aid through gritted teeth. "It should be when he attacked and touched me, he used some sort of talisman or something."
But why would he do such a thing? This was the question David was thinking about.
"Naturally, there are many reasons, you\'re too strong for your age. And judging by your strength and disposition, he probably thinks you are young, ambitious and reckless, someone who thinks he\'s smart. So he told you that valuable piece of information."
"And as an ambitious youth, he was certain you will sell the information to one of the other eight families, thereby diverting their attention to the young princess within the ancient battleground, diverting their attention from the main objective.
And once they realise the princess is just an ordinary person, it would be too late and whoever the attention have been diverted from would have succeeded.
The eight families would be very angry and would probably join hands to kill you as an accomplice."
"I presume you call something like that killing two birds with one stone?" Hazel asked as she pondered seriously on the idiom.
