Chapter 1131
Chapter 1131
Lucifer sat with his legs crossed and answered in a lazy tone, “What are you saying, Dance Fairy? What do you mean by setting a trap to lure you over? It‘s just a chamber of commerce! If you want one, I can just give it to you. Why are you so mad?” “No, thanks! Master Grim, I‘ve withdrawn from the four fairies, so please stop bugging me. If there‘s nothing else. we‘ll leave now.”
“You want to leave? Do you think you can leave after you come in? I‘d like to see if you can walk out of the door without my permission,” Lucifer said arrogantly.
Mia was the woman he fancied.
If his family had not recalled him and asked him to cultivate with the grandmaster whilst preventing him from coming out until he achieved his target, Mia would be his woman now.
Lucifer did not care what method he used.
He would get the woman he fancied no matter what.
He had done a lot of similar things in the past.
Of course, Lucifer needed to understand their background first.
He was not a fool.
If it were someone like Princess Astrid, Lucifer would not even dare to think about it, let alone pursue her.
If he showed any signs of having this thought, his family would kill him before the empire did anything, no matter how much they valued him. If not, the entire family would be in danger.
Only Mia, among the four fairies in the Milky Way, did not have much background. This time, Lucifer finally got the grandmaster‘s permission to come out. However, Mia withdrew from the four fairies and chose to follow a man.
How could he accept this?
After finding out Mia was spreading the news that she wanted to buy a chamber of commerce, Lucifer thought of this plan and asked someone to pretend to sell their chamber of commerce.
Indeed, he managed to lure Mia over. He held himself back for so long while he was with the grandmaster.
Finally, he could come out, so how would he let Mia go? After David heard their conversation, he finally understood. ‘So this two trillion dollar chamber of commerce is fake? ‘It‘s just a trap this punk set to lure Mia over?‘ Immediately, David flew into a fit of rage. ‘Damn, he‘s just wasting my time! And he‘s so arrogant too.
‘We can‘t leave without his permission, he said?‘
David wanted to tell the punk, ‘Tell Emperor Nimbus to come here and ask him if he dares to say that to me!‘ “Master Grim, I’ve really withdrawn from the four fairies. Why won‘t you stop pestering me?” Mia asked aggrievedly. “Stop pestering you? Sure! But you have to accept a request of mine…” Before Lucifer could finish, Mia stopped him, “No way! I won‘t accept anything! Master Grim, you should just give up.”
As a woman who could charm every living creature in the world, Mia knew her body was too enchanting novelbin
Even before Lucifer finished, she knew what he wanted.
He just wanted her.
Right now, aside from David, Mia would not give her body to anyone else.
If David did not want her, she was willing to stay chaste forever.
“Oh? Mia, I think you still don‘t realize your situation. Is that the man you want to follow even if it means withdrawing from the four fairies?”
After Lucifer said that, he glazed at David and continued, “You‘re not bad for catching the eyes of Dance Fairy. You do have a good appearance, but unfortunately, your handsome face will have to say goodbye to this world soon. You better give this world one last look.” “Lucifer, don‘t do anything stupid,” Mia immediately stood in front of David and said nervously.
“Mia, you know me. There‘s nothing I don‘t dare to do. If you want to save him, you must accept my request.” David had never said a word since he stepped through the door.
To him, Lucifer was just a clown.
Chapter 1132
Chapter 1132
David could destroy the support behind Lucifer, let alone him. He did not say anything or do anything because he wanted to see what Lucifer would do. He wanted to see if he should just kill Lucifer or kill his entire family as well. Now, it seemed his family was not a saint for raising someone like him. “I won‘t accept anything.”
The moment Mia said that…
Creak!
Someone opened the door all of a sudden.
A young man and an old man walked in.
“Lucy, can you stop being so forgetful? You were just let out, and you‘re bullying others again? Do you want to be locked up again?” The young man asked after entering the room. Lucifer frowned when he saw the person coming in. He said in displeasure, “Cally, do you want to be beaten up? Who asked you to come in? Get out now!” Mia looked at the man who came in.
She knew this person.
Even though she did not know him too well, she knew who he was.
Lucifer was the eldest son of the Grim family, ranked fourth among the eight prominent families.
Meanwhile, this Cally person was named Callan Elrod. He was the second child of the Elrod family, ranked fifth among the eight prominent families. He was the second child, while the eldest in his generation was a woman. The Grim and Elrod families were constantly at odds with each other, so they often fought.
It was normal for the direct descendants to fight all the time.
If they could suppress one another and give them a heavy slap across the face, they would be rewarded when they returned to their families.
Mia let out a sigh of relief when she saw Callen bickering with Lucifer after he came in.
It seemed that she could get through this safely.
She then looked at David on one side.
She noticed that there were no changes in his expression. Mia shook her head internally. She was struggling to read David more and more these days.
To be honest, she was hoping David would take action just now, but she was worried that David could not beat the Grin family.
Even though David was not scared of the Tuffin family, the Tuffin family could not compare to a big family like the Grim family. The two had such a huge difference in strength.
“Hmph, Lucy, don‘t think you‘re all that because you‘ve been cultivating with the grandmaster for a while. Come, let‘s have a duel and see if you‘ve grown in all these years,” Callen said fearlessly.
“Let‘s go then. The one who pulls out first is a son of a b*tch. If you have the balls, let‘s go down to the arena for a duel. What do you think?” Lucifer stood up and said.
“Sure! Do you think I‘m scared?”
“Alright, we‘ll go down now! We‘ll give everyone here a good show today. However, we must follow the rules and sign a waiver of liability before entering the arena. No one shall stop us during the battle.” “Alright!” Callan agreed. However, the old man next to him yelled, “Master Callan!” “Don‘t stick your
nose into this. I‘ll give Master Lucifer Grim a lesson today. I want him to turn the other way the next time he sees me.” When the old man saw how determined Callan was to battle with Lucifer, he stopped advising him.
However, he had already decided in his heart.
Even if they signed a waiver of liability, he would go and save Callan if he were in danger.
Chapter 1133
When Lucifer heard Callan agreeing to the battle without hesitating, the corners of his lips upturned into a strange smile. Both of them were the first heirs to their families. Since their families were in the same industries and were almost equal in strength, they would always fight, causing heavy grudges between the two. When they two saw each other, they would want to embarrass each other.
They always did this back then.
However, they were no better than the other and would reach a stalemate in every battle.
However, this time, Lucifer did not plan to let Callan go so easily He had been cultivating with the grandmaster all these years, and his strength had increased drastically. If not, he would not have been let out. As long as Callan signed the waiver of liability and entered the arena, then his life would not be in his hands anymore.
Coincidentally, he could check his result after cultivating with the old master for so many years.
Lucifer thought to himself while smirking coldly, ‘Cally, you came to me, so don‘t blame me for being merciless. I didn‘t plan to take action against you so early. ‘Unfortunately, you insisted on coming at me like that.‘
“Cally, let‘s go down now. I want you to know the consequences of angering me,” Lucifer snarled.
“Tch, are you trying to scare me? Do you think I’m scared of you?” Callan said in disdain. “I hope you can still be so stubborn later.” “I will speak with my actions.”
Lucifer ignored Callan and shifted his gaze to Mia. He said, “Dance Fairy, stay here. I‘ll take care of our business after I take care of Cally. I hope you won‘t think of escaping because you can‘t escape from Planet Staub.”
‘Dance Fairy? ‘Dance Fairy from the four fairies?‘
When Callan heard this name, he immediately turned to look at Mia, who was wearing a veil.
That perfect body did look like hers.
Although she was wearing a veil, one could still tell it was Mia if they looked closely.
‘It is Mia from the four fairies in the Milky Way.
‘Lucifer is still the same.
‘He was just let out, and he‘s here bugging the Dance Fairy.
‘He‘s not gentlemanly at all. ‘What a loser among the major family direct descendants.‘ “Dance Fairy! I couldn‘t recognize you just now. It‘s such an honor to meet you at last. My name is Callan Elrod,” Callan said politely to Mia. “You‘re too polite, Master Callan. It‘s also an honor for me to meet you,” Mia also replied respectfully.
“Dance Fairy, you‘re hilarious. What honor do I have? You‘re one of the four fairies in the Milky Way, and I admire you a lot.” “That was before, Master Callan. I‘ve withdrawn from the four fairies,” Mia corrected. “Right! My memory is getting weaker. I‘m sure this is the person that you want to follow even though you had to withdraw from the four fairies, right?” Callan looked at David and said.
“Hello, my name is David Lidell. I am only a friend to Mia. She‘s not my follower,” David said. “I understand! Hello, David! My name is Callan Elrod. You‘re amazing for taking down the Dance Fairy. Do you know how many men in the Milky Way are head over heels over her?” Callan reached out his hand voluntarily.
David also reached out his hand to shake Callan‘s. However, after they shook hands, Callan pulled David into a hug. Then, he whispered in David’s ear, “David, let‘s get to know each other if we have
time. Tell me how you get chicks. Don‘t worry, I can protect you in the Royal Region in the future. I can
take care of Lucifer for you as a welcoming gift.” David thought Callan wanted to give him a show of strength.
However, he did not expect Callan to say that.
David was between laughter and tears.
‘My combat power is almost the same as the emperor. Do you think I need your protection? ‘Won‘t I become a laughing stock if that were to happen?‘ However, David started to respect Callan after what he did. At least he was not arrogant and domineering like Lucifer. After Callan said that, he let David go without waiting for David to react.
Then, he turned his head to look at Lucifer. He said, “Lucy, David and Dance Fairy are my friends. Don’t even think of bullying them with me around.”
“You want to help them get out of this predicament, Cally?” Lucifer narrowed his eyes and said with murderous intent.
“You can say that. Moreover, it doesn‘t just apply to today, you can‘t bully them even in the future.”
“Are you sure you want to get involved in this mess?” “Lucy, don‘t try to f*cking threaten me. Do you think I‘m scared of you? Let‘s go! Don‘t you want to have a duel down there? I will tear you a new one today!”
“I hope you will still be this arrogant later. Let‘s go.”
Chapter 1134
“Hmph!”
After Callan huffed, he turned to walk out the door.
At this moment, Lucifer looked at the old man next to him.
The old man understood at once.
He teleported next to David and slapped David to kill him first.
Who would Mia follow if David was dead?
Mia had been with David so long, so David had surely taken her virginity.
Lucifer had been seething at the thought of this.
Since David and Mia walked in, Lucifer had decided that David was a dead man.
However, Callan‘s sudden arrival disrupted his plan.
Now, he could catch David off guard and kill him. Then, he would slowly take care of Callan and Mia.
If not, where would he go to find David if he ran away?
The old man‘s sudden attack could not catch David off guard. A beginner Celestial Ranker‘s speed was like a tortoise‘s speed to David.
He did not need any preparation to kill the old man.
After all, their strengths were miles apart.
It was like an adult and an ant.
David chuckled coldly in his heart.
When he was about to kill that old man, he felt another energy quickly approaching him.
It was the old man next to Callan.
David gave up on his attack and took one step away to stand in front of Mia.
Boom!
After a loud sound, the entire room started shaking.
However, Mia did not feel anything behind David.
Mia was so close to the battle between two Celestial Rankers.
If it were not for David, the shockwave from the collisions would have immediately killed her. “Lucy! I knew you would do this. You really live up to your name, huh? You‘re like the devil, and you never change. You deserve your namesake,” Callan sneered.
Lucifer‘s face darkened, and he walked out of the room without saying anything.
He was furious that he could not attack David in secret.
With Callan around, Lucifer knew he would not have this chance for the time being. With that, he decided just to leave. He would cripple Callan in the arena later, making his life worse than hell. He could only get rid of the anger in his heart that way. The two old men backed away and did not attack anymore. They were nearly at the same level. If they continued fighting, nothing would happen. The old man who attacked David also left with Lucifer. Before he left, he glanced at David. He was curious.
Just now, even though the attack was not directed at David and Mia, an ordinary person would not be able to handle the shockwave from a collision between two Celestial Rankers.
However, David was not affected at all. ‘How peculiar! This young man is not simple.‘ He was not the only one thinking this. The other old man also looked at David thoughtfully.
Chapter 1135
After Lucifer brought his people out of the room, Callan walked to David‘s side and patted his shoulder. He said, “Don‘t worry, David. Lucy won‘t dare to do anything to you if I‘m around.” David smiled and did not say anything. What should he say? Thank you?
He did not think he needed to thank Callan.
That kid was showering David with affection this entire time. However, no matter what, Callan left a good impression on David. David would secretly help him repay his favor if he could not beat Lucifer. When Callan saw David not speaking, he shrugged and left. David and Mia were the only ones in the room.
“David, I‘m so sorry. It‘s all because of me that you‘re in such a mess. I didn‘t know this was a trap. Lucifer had been bugging me for some time back then, but he disappeared for a few years, so I didn‘t think it‘d be him,” Mia said apologetically.
“You‘re indeed at fault today. You‘ve made a huge mistake. I have to scold you. Don‘t let this happen again in the future. If not, I‘ll be mad,” David said sternly.
Mia was stunned. She did not expect David to say that. She held back her tears and tried not to let them fall.
She said aggrievedly, “Tell me, David. I will listen to you and won‘t cause you any trouble again.”
“If you run into something like this again in the future, I won‘t allow you to be so petty and low. Don‘t be scared of troubling me because I am not scared of trouble at all. Since you‘re with me, you can‘t embarrass me, nor can I afford for that to happen. You should curse someone like Lucifer to hell and not show him any respect. Curse at him, and if he dares to try anything, I‘ll help you.” “Huh?”
Mia did not know how to react for a while. She was a little confused. She thought David would scold him, but it was not as she expected. “Huh? Do you understand?” David asked.
“Um… I–I understand,” Mia replied blankly.
“That‘s good. Don‘t let this happen again in the future.”
“I–I understand, David.”
David looked at Mia. If he were not stern with her, she would still be restrained if she met the same situation in the future and would not do as she was told.
He was at partial Eternal Realm and the strongest in the Milky Way, but his person was as petty and lowly as an ant.
He would be so embarrassed if word got out. Therefore, David asked, “Mia, do you know how I got rid of my Tuffin family problem?” “No,” Mia answered honestly. She lifted her head to look at David. She did not understand why he would ask her that. “‘I slashed Grandmaster Tuffin with my sword, and the Tuffin family fell apart just like that,” David answered calmly.
“Oh! Huh? What?”
Mia came back to her senses and widened her beautiful eyes. She looked at David in horror, and her brain was a mess.
‘What did David say? ‘He slashed Grandmaster Tuffin with his sword? ‘H–How is that possible? ‘Grandmaster Tuffin is one of the oldest giants in the Milky Way, and he‘s an ancient that‘s been living for thousands of years. He‘s also an Infinity Ranker, so how can David kill him just like that? ‘How old is David?
‘Does a monster like him truly exist? ‘Even though he was a Celestial Ranker when he crippled Fergus, it was still miles away from Infinity Rank!
Chapter 1136
Mia felt that this was impossible. However, David did not seem like he was lying nor did he need to lie about something like this.
Mia was confused.
She did not know if she should believe him.
To be honest, what David said was beyond what her understanding.
Not only that, but it was also something never before seen in the history of the entire Milky Way. No one like this had ever happened in the Milky Way before. “Why? Do you not believe me?” David looked at Mia‘s face and asked in confusion.
“I… I… I…” Mia did not know what to say.
“Well, you don‘t seem like you do. I should have brought you along that day,” David said helplessly
He could not do anything if Mia did not believe him.
He could only show her how strong he was when he had the chance next time.
He could kill an Infinity Ranker with just a wave of his sword.
“I believe you!” Mia said solemnly.
Finally, she convinced herself to believe David.
“Really?”
“Yeah, really.”
“Then, you should know that if I can kill Grandmaster Tuffin, there are not many people in the Milky Way who can defeat me. So, you can do whatever you want next time. Don‘t speak so humbly to those ants next time. I can even slash the force behind Lucifer with my sword, let alone him.”
David did not dare to say that his combat power was on the same level as Emperor Nimbus.
Mia was skeptical of him and finally convinced herself to believe him, so if he told her that, she might struggle even more to believe him. Hence, he would not tell her that for now.
Seeing was believing When they returned to Planet Royal, he would have a duel with Emperor Nimbus. Mia would believe him after watching that. “Alright. David, I understand. I won‘t embarrass you anymore,” Mia answered. Even though she was still in disbelief, she started to gradually accept what David said. She had mixed feelings inside her.
Joy, excitement, shock, admiration, infatuation, and so on…
“Let‘s go down then. I know you still don‘t believe me, but I‘ll show you when I get the chance. Honestly, an Infinity Ranker is nothing. They‘re also humans, so they will get hurt and die too.” “Alright, thank you, David.”
“Let‘s go. Tell me what kind of person Lucifer is and what the force behind him is like. I can kill the force behind him to avenge you if it‘s on the way.”
“No need! You don‘t have to do that, David,” Mia rejected.
“It‘s not just to avenge you. Did you see how he wanted to kill me just now? Does he think i am weak? Does he think I don‘t have a temper? I am also a strong man! Does he think I won‘t be humiliated after getting shamed by an ant like him?”
“Oh! David, i‘ll tell you. Lucifer is the first heir to the Grim family, ranked four among the eight prominent families. The Grim family is powerful…”
As the two walked, Mia told David about Lucifer and Callan.
Soon, they reached the bottom of the arena.
Lucifer and Callan were signing the waiver of liability.
After signing, they were about to enter the arena to start fighting.
The arena manager looked like he was about to cry as he stood at one side.
The heirs of the fourth–ranked and fifth–ranked families would fight in his arena and even signed a liability waiver.
Wasn‘t this causing trouble for him?
He would be in trouble no matter who won. The manager hoped the two would stop the fight whenever they saw fit. Even though he knew it was a pipe dream, thankfully, the two masters each had people with them.
Therefore, someone would come to their rescue no matter which one them was in danger. This was the manager‘s only comfort.
Chapter 1137
After Lucifer and Callan signed the liability waiver, they walked into the arena. The noisy arena plunged into silence once the two walked in.
Then, sounds of discussion could be heard.
“Damn, i–isn‘t that Master Callan from the Elrod family? Why is he in the arena? Who‘s the other one? Are they going to fight?”
“He looks familiar. Let me think… I remember! That‘s Master Lucifer from the Grim family. Back then, he was a famous hedonist in the Royal Region. However, I think his family sent him out a few years ago, and he hadn‘t come back in a while. I can‘t believe he‘s here now.”
“The Grim and Elrod family are mortal enemies. Their strengths don‘t differ by much, and the two are first heirs. Since they‘re here, there will be something interesting to watch. Haha! Thank God I came here today!”
“I didn‘t think that Master Lucifer would give us a show after he came back. It‘s so rare to see a battle between the first heirs of two major families. This trip was so worthwhile!”
At this time, a voice came from the speakers of the arena.
“Hello, everyone. Due to special circumstance, the next beast battle will now instead be a human battle. I believe you‘ve seen the people participating in this battle.
“One is Master Lucifer Grim from one of the eight prominent families in the Milky Way, while the other is Master Callan Elrod, also from one of the eight prominent families in the Milky Way.
“These two are peerless geniuses in the Milky Way. Let‘s wait and see what kind of show they will put on later.”
After getting confirmation from the arena officials, the crowd went wild.
They were even more noisy than they were during the beast battle.
This was not just a battle between two humans but also a battle between two major families.
If they won, they would be well–regarded. Not only would they bring glory to their families, but they could also even vent their anger and suppress the opposing family.
However, if they lost, they would be utterly embarrassed.
Not only would they embarrass themselves, their entire family would also be shamed.
This was no joke.
As one of the eight prominent families in the Milky Way, honor was very important to them.
If Lucifer lost, he would be punished by his family, no matter how unique his identity was.
If Callan lost, he would be in a worse situation as he might even lose his position as the first heir.
This was a pretty serious consequence. However they had no reason to pull out now that they were at this step.
of course, the most important thing was they had absolute confidence in their selves. They did not think they would lose to the other. That was why they did this. As the first heirs, they knew what would happen if they lost. Callan and Lucifer stood facing each other in the arena. Their tiny human bodies
seemed out of place in the vast arena. However, they could emit incredible energy from their tiny bodies.
Body size was never used to measure the amount of power a creature had. “Cally, you can still pull out now. As long as you kneel and kowtow to me, and then say, ‘I‘m sorry, Daddy‘, I will let you go. If not, don‘t blame me for being merciless if I accidentally kill you or cripple you. We‘ve already signed the liability waiver,” Lucifer said arrogantly. “Lucy, are you sick in the head? Pull out? I wonder who will be the one pulling out later. I won‘t spare you even if you kneel in front of me. I have to show you how powerful I am. Don‘t think you‘re invincible just because you‘ve been cultivating with your grandmaster for a few years. You‘re still nowhere near me!” Callan retorted. Then, the two stopped talking. They were working hard to recompose themselves. They wanted to fight this battle in their best states.
Even though it sounded easy, they knew it would not be too easy to defeat the other. They had been fighting since they were young, so they knew each other very well.
Chapter 1138
There had previously been a period of peace because Grandmaster Grim had asked Lucifer to cultivate with him and could not come out.
David, Mia, and the two old men watched Lucifer and Callan in the arena,
The two old men were paying the most attention and would be prepared to face any danger to save the two.
David was not interested.
To him, these two were too weak.
After Mia knew David‘s true power, she was much more relaxed.
She did not worry that she would cause trouble for David any more.
According to sources, the Allaband family, ranked third among the eight prominent families, had a grudge against the Tuffin family, but they never did anything because of Grandmaster Tuffin.
This showed how much of a deterrent Grandmaster Tuffin was.
Now, David could kill Grandmaster Tuffin with a swing of his sword.
Therefore, the only family among the eight prominent families in the Milky Way that could threaten David would be the Drake family, which was ranked first.
After all, the Drake family was the unique one among the eight. Mia was delighted right now. The stronger David was, the better her taste. This would be beneficial to her future. At this moment, a strong wind swept across the arena. Rumble!
Lucifer and Callan‘s energy rose to their peaks.
They moved at the same time.
They disappeared from where they were standing and rushed toward each other.
Then, they met in the middle.
Boom!
The collision caused a deafening noise, and a shockwave started spreading. The audience around them, who were slightly weaker, were all pushed to the ground while holding their ears in pain.
“Ah!”
Some people passed out as they were unable to handle the shockwaves. The audiences were primarily people from the bottom tier of society. Even though they were much stronger than earthlings, they still could not handle the shockwave of two Cosmos
Rankers colliding.
After the collision, Lucifer and Callan backed away quickly. They did not care if they hurt the audience after they recomposed themselves. They could only see their opponent, and they only wanted to defeat them. Hence, they continued to charge at their opponent, soon engaging in a fight.
Boom boom boom!
Everyone heard countless sounds of collision.”
Shockwaves started spreading one after another. There was a strong wind in the arena, and the collisions sounded like claps of thunder.
When the audience saw they were about to get hurt for the second time, they looked horrified. Many of them were fleeing the scene, causing chaos.
At this moment, an invisible shield appeared above the arena, stopping the shock waves from spreading However, no one could see this shield. Everyone was still trying their best to flee from the chaos.
As time passed, the audience realized the combat in the arena would not affect them anymore.
Therefore, they thought this was one of the arena‘s functionalities.
The scene quieted down again, and everyone started attentively watching the battle in the arena.
It was very rare to see a battle of this level.
As expected, David‘s mind power was creating the invisible shield. His mind power was at Infinity level 10, so it could resist the attack of an Infinity Ranker. Hence, this shock wave was nothing to him.
Chapter 1139
After David saved the audience, he started paying attention to the fight.
“David, who do you think will win?” Mia asked.
“It‘s hard to say. They are at about the same level as each other. It all depends on who has the stronger trump card,” David answered.
Even though he could guess Lucifer and Callan‘s realms, he could not see their hidden tricks.
Almost all of these direct descendants from major forces would have some trumps up their sleeves.
It might be some amazing combat skills, or vicious hidden weapons. It could even be a powerful weapon It could even be a mysterious potion that could increase their combat power in the blink of an eye.
Just like Adan back then.
His strength skyrocketed after he consumed the Blood–Burning Potion. David could not tell what these guys possesed.
So, David could not confirm who would win in the end.
“I hope Master Callan will win. Lucifer is too sinister and shameless, I don‘t like him. He kept bugging me back then and caused a lot of trouble for me. I finally got a few years of peace, and now he‘s here again,” Mia said, feeling a little pissed. After she said that, the old man next to Lucifer turned around to look at her.
However, Mia did not care. David smiled understandingly.
If it were back then, Mia would not dare to talk about Master Lucifer like that.
Now that she knew his strength and the Grim family was no longer a threat, she dared to say just about anything.
“It‘s fine. He won‘t get the chance to bug you anymore,” David comforted.
At this moment, the old man next to Callan turned to look at David.
He was very curious why David dared to say that.
Even though he knew David was not that simple, Master Lucifer was not easy to deal with.
Moreover, he had a unique identity. If something happened to him, Grandmaster Grim would come out.
The battle in the arena stopped just as the old man next to Lucifer wanted to say something. The old men turned their heads to look over quickly. David and Mia also looked over. Lucifer and Callan had separated from each other.
The two were gasping for air, and their clothes were torn. There was no outcome from the previous battle, and they were only testing each other. “Lucy, is that all you got after cultivating with your grandmaster for so long? Does your grandmaster know how to teach you?” Callan said sarcastically, “Shut up! Cally, you‘ve successfully injured me.”
After Lucifer said that, he disappeared.
Suddenly, he appeared in front of Callan and slapped him.
Callan sneered and caught Lucifer‘s hand fearlessly At this moment, a sinister smile appeared across the corner of Lucifer‘s lips.
Looking closely, one could see a gust of black smoke coming from Lucifer‘s palm that was aimed at Callan.
‘Black Demon Palm!‘ Lucifer growled in his heart.
Black Demon Palm was a low–grade combat skill, but it was also a skill that made Grandmaster Grim famous.
Once someone was hit, the Black Demon Poison would enter their body, causing all muscles and organs to fail. It was very lethal.
Black Demon Palm was not the same as other skills with strong power. novelbin
The other skills would cause huge sounds when used, so the opponent would notice it in advance and then think of an appropriate countermeasure,
However, Black Demon Palm was different.
One could use Black Demon Palm without making any noise. There would only be some black smoke circling one‘s palm, and their opponent would not notice if they did not pay attention. This was the best trump card when it came to sneak attacks. Therefore, even if Black Demon Palm was a low–grade combat skill, its power was not inferior to any middle–grade combat skill. Grandmaster Grim used this skill to move unhindered in the Milky Way, Even so, Black Demon Palm was famous for being hard to learn.
Grandmaster Grim forced Lucifer to learn Black Demon Palm throughout all these years. Only when Lucifer successfully learned it was he allowed to come out.
A combat skill was every force‘s rarely shown trump card. There were a few more low or middle–grade combat skills. Usually, the eight prominent families would each have one or two of them. Meanwhile, a
high–grade combat skill would be very precious. Its power was more than one level above the low or middle–grade combat skills, let alone top combat skills.
The value of a combat skill at this level was immeasurable.
Boom!
After he was hit, Callan flew more than ten meters backward before stabilizing himself.
Just now, Callan reacted hurriedly, and the impact caused Lucifer to stagger a few steps backward.
However, Lucifer was excited.
Success!‘
Lucifer had just learned Black Demon Palm, so his power was limited.
Chapter 1140
However, it was still enough to defeat Callan. After Callan was hit with Black Demon Palm, the poison immediately entered his arm.
His arm would be temporarily paralyzed, so the coming battle would be much easier for Lucifer after Callan lost one of his limbs.
Lucifer looked at the old man watching the battle and hinted at him to stop Callan‘s people.
Then, he continued to charge at Callan. He would not give Callan any chances. He had to cripple him in one go. Callan saw Lucifer charging at him again and thought, ‘Do you think I‘m scared of you?‘
He suffered a slight loss because he was in a hurry just now, and he was still mad.
Therefore, Callan also rushed forward. Boom boom boom! The two started engaging in a battle again. The more Lucifer fought, the more he felt that something was off. ‘Didn‘t I just hit Cally with Black Demon Palm? Why can he still use his arm? ‘Why does he not look hurt at all?
‘Impossible!
‘Black Demon Palm was what got Grandmaster famous, and it‘s great for sneak attacks.
‘But why does it not work on Cally?
‘Also, Grandmaster was the one who taught me this combat skill. He only let me out after I successfully learned it. So I’m sure there won‘t be any problems.‘
Lucifer did not know that he could not hide this small trick from David‘s mind power.
David could see his sneak attack early on.
So, he secretly wrapped a thin layer of mind power over Callan‘s fist that blocked the spread of the Black Demon Poison.
Lucifer did not believe that there would be something wrong with his Black Demon Palm.
Hence, he continued to use it secretly.
‘Black Demon Palm!‘
‘Black Demon Palm!‘
‘Black Demon Palm!‘
Unfortunately, David would secretly use his mind power to stop the Black Demon Poison each time Lucifer used it.
He would get nothing with every attack
Lucifer was wondering if something was wrong with his cultivation. ‘Grandmaster! What did you teach me? It doesn’t work at all! ‘I‘m so tired, but my opponent is still jumping around. ‘What kind of combat skill is this?
‘Isn‘t this suicide?‘ Since it would take a lot of energy to use Black Demon Palm, Lucifer started feeling drained after using it multiple times.
His attacks started to become weaker. Callan found an excellent opportunity to punch Lucifer directly on the chest. “Pfft!”
Lucifer vomited blood.
He flew more than a hundred meters back and collapsed on the floor.
Callan followed him and placed his foot on Lucifer‘s chest.
“Pfft!”
Lucifer vomited blood again.
Right now, he was drained of all energy, and he could only let others do whatever they wanted to him.
Inside, Lucifer was fuming.
He did not lose to Callan, but instead, the grandmaster was the one who indirectly caused this.
If he did not use Black Demon Palm and inadvertently drained his body, he might not havelost. At most, it would be a tie.
He cried in grief inside his heart, ‘Grandmaster, you did this to me!‘ “Master Lucifer!”
When the old man from the Grim family saw Lucifer getting hurt, he immediately went over. However, the old man from the Elrod family stopped him. “This is between them. Let them resolve this themselves. After all, they‘ve signed a liability waiver. Are your family member‘s such sore losers?”
“Get lost! Listen to me, if anything happens to Master Lucifer, the grandmaster will avenge him. Does your family want to start this battle?”
Chapter 1141
Callan stepped on Lucifer‘s chest. Then, he lifted his head to look at the screaming audience around him.
The feeling of stepping on his rival and becoming the center of countless people‘s attention was excellent. It was too wonderful for words. He felt as if he was on top of the world.
Callan also never thought that Lucifer would be so weak.
He had collapsed before they had even fought a few rounds. Callan thought they would be in an intense fight today. It was possible he would need to show all of his trump cards before he could win.
In the end, he did not even show any of them, yet he won so easily?
It seemed that Old Master Grim was not that great. He had taught Lucifer for so long, but that kid never improved. Callan had no idea that if David had not helped him secretly, he would be have been taken down before he could show his trump card.
The poison of Black Demon Palm was no joke.
Even if Lucifer had just learned it and he was not that strong, it was not something Callan could endure. If he were hit, he would surely be injured. Lucifer lay on the ground, feeling lifeless.
A combat skill was called a combat skill because it was more powerful than other techniques.
Hence, one could not use them casually like any other normal technique as it would exhaust them.
Lucifer‘s body could no longer take it after using the low–grade combat skill Black Demon Palm so many times.
He was furious as he looked at Callan, who was stepping on his chest and towering over him. Then, he vomited a mouthful of blood.
Right now, he wanted to die.
This was the most humiliating thing he had ever encountered. Most importantly, he lost to his family‘s rival.
The first heir of the Grim family, who ranked fourth in the eight prominent families, was easily defeated by the first heir of the fifth–ranked Elrod family, and was even trampled on the ground insultingly. This would spread all over the Royal Region soon. Then, Lucifer would become the laughing stock of everyone in the Royal Region.
How would his family view him then?
Oh no, I‘m doomed! when he thought of his legendary reputation being destroyed right here, Lucifer felt anger rising to his head. As he looked at the laughing faces around him, he passed out. After enjoying the cheers, Callan lowered his head to look at Lucifer. Then, he noticed Lucifer had passed out.
“Hey, Luky, stop playing dead! I didn‘t even use force, and you‘re down. If I knew you were so Well, I would go easy on you. Why didn‘t you improve after learning from your grandmaster for so long? Is it because he‘s bad at teaching, or are you just a piece of trash? Sigh… I‘m so worried about your family‘s future. They don‘t even have a promising descendant!” Callan said arrogantly
Lucifer did not want to face reality, so he pretended to be unconscious. When he heard what Callan said, he passed out in anger. Callan lifted his foot off Lucifer‘s chest and then stepped on his face.
Once, twice, thrice… He finally stopped after Lucifer‘s face swelled up.
Even though it did not do much harm to Lucifer, it was very insulting.
So many people were watching them! Callan was not stepping on Lucifer‘s face. Instead, he was stepping on the entire Grim family. This scene would soon become huge news piece in the Royal Region. The Grim family would be a laughing stock. The old man from the Grim family watched not far away as his master was humiliated. However, he could not do anything. The old man from the Elrod family was blocking him, so he knew he could not save Master Lucifer so quickly.
Moreover, once they started fighting, Master Lucifer would be hurt by the repercussions because he had lost his combat power as he lay nearby.
Master Lucifer could normally still withstand the combat power of a Celestial Ranker normally, but right now, he could not. To prevent further injury to Lucifer, the old man from the Grim family did not dare to do anything
Furthermore, a kid whom he could not see through was watching from one side. Callan smiled in satisfaction as he looked at Lucifer, whose face had swelled up after he stepped on him. Then, he kicked Lucifer to the old man from the Grim family.
Chapter 1142
“Take your master and get lost. Stop embarrassing yourself here. Is this really the first heir of the Grim family? How weak. It seems there will be a void in your family soon. How sad,” Callan shook his head and said. The Grim family‘s old man looked at Callan and knelt without saying a word. After that, he picked up his master‘s body. After finding out that Lucifer only passed out because he hurt his internal organs, the old man sighed in relief.
‘It‘ll be fine if he‘s not too badly injured.‘
If Lucifer died, the old man would make the Elrod family pay, even if it meant sacrificing his life.
If not, he would be dead when he went back.
His grandmaster would not forgive him. The Grim family‘s old man carried Lucifer and shot into the sky, disappearing from everyone‘s sight. He would bring shame to the Grim family if he continued to stay here.
Right now, he had a lot of questions in his heart.
‘How could Master Lucifer lose to Master Callan so easily? ‘They‘re on the same level.
‘I didn‘t see Master Callan using any secret weapons or strong combat skills.
‘How did Master Lucifer lose?
‘Master Lucifer had stayed with his grandmaster this entire time. Did he not learn anything? ‘I‘ll ask him what happened after he wakes up.
‘I can‘t tell what happened anyway.‘
After the Grim family‘s old man left with Lucifer, tsunami–like cheers filled the arena.
“Master Callan, you‘re the best!” “All hail Master Callan!”
“You‘re the man, Master Callan!”
Callan waved at the audience around him like a winner. At the same time, he enjoyed the cheers from countless people. “David, you did that, right? If not, it wouldn‘t have ended so quickly,” Mia whispered. She also felt this battle had a strong start but a disappointing finish. They were the first heirs of the fourth–ranked and fifth–ranked families among the eight prominent families.
Moreover, the two families were mortal enemies.
How was it possible for them to reach a result so easily? Where were their trump cards? Ultimate moves?
Combat skills?
They did not show any of them. Lucifer lost after a fist fight.
It was not logical at all.
This battle affected the prestige of the two families.
It was not an exaggeration to say that as soon as the battle started, the two could surely use all of their trumps and tricks to get a result.
It would not be surprising if one of them got heavily injured or even died. However, something unknown must have happened after what happened just now.
Mia thought about it.
The only person who could and would do this was David. Thus, she asked that question.
David smiled and said nothing.
When Mia saw his smile, she had an answer in her heart. At this moment, Callan walked over.
“Hahaha! David, you‘re my lucky star! I‘ve fought Lucy for so many years back then, and even if the results have gone both ways in the past, I‘ve never trounced him like today. Also, so many people were watching this. That punk will surely be severely criticized when he gets back. This feels great! Hahaha!” Callan laughed.
Chapter 1143
David thought to himself, ‘Damn right I‘m your lucky star. ‘If I didn‘t do anything, you‘ll be the one on the floor right now.‘ However, since he did this secretly, he did not need to tell Callan. Besides, he did not want to be in the limelight.
“It‘s your strength, and it has nothing to do with me. Since there‘s nothing else, let‘s go, Mia,” David smiled and said.
Then. he turned and left.
He lost twenty thousand lavish points, and he felt pissed right now.
Next, he should make a trip to the Grim family.
Lucifer had wasted his time and even tried to disrespect Mia.
How would he live with himself if he did not go and demand an explanation?
You had to find out who the master was before you beat the dog, right?
David was at partial Eternal Realm and on the same level as the emperor.
How many people in the Milky Way were at his level?
Lucifer dared to lie to David and even wanted to kill him.
Even if David had a good temper, he still wanted to vent the anger in his chest. Therefore, he decided to make a trip to the Grim family.
At the same time, he could dismiss Mia‘s concerns about him so that she would not be scared when she did things.
If the Grim family behaved and admitted their mistakes readily, he would go easy on them.
However, Lucifer had to pay for what he did.
If the Grim family tried to use their family‘s power or their grandmaster to suppress him, then too bad.
David hoped they would not blame him if he killed all of them with his sword.
“David, you can come to me if you need anything in the future. I have some power in the Royal Region. Even though I can‘t do anything huge, I can help you with some small matters,” Callan yelled when David turned to leave.
“Alright, I remember you, Master Callan Elrod. I‘ll see you next time!” David said without turning around.
Mia followed behind him respectfully.
After David and Mia left, Callan was still staring in the direction they left in.
“Master Callan, David is not as simple as he seems,” the old man said next to Callan. “What do you mean?” Callan asked.
“When I wanted to save him just now, I felt terrifying killing intent. Even if it was just a glimpse, I still felt it. Also, he was the closest to us when we fought, yet he was not hurt. Even Mia was unharmed.”
“That‘s all?”
“Also, he never showed any fear the entire time. His eyes were always calm, even when facing two Celestial Rankers. He was never bothered by us. Moreover, he was always cold when you talked to
him passionately. If it were someone else, they‘d be dying to worm their way into a relationship with you. Because of all this, I think this person is not only powerful, but he also has a very significant background.”
“I knew it! How would Dance Fairy give up her spot in the four fairies and follow a normal person? Do you know how many direct descendants of major forces were eying Mia? Lucifer is just a lackey. If David weren‘t powerful, he wouldn‘t be able to protect Mia.”
After Callan said that, he continued after pondering, “Back then, Mia could conduct herself virtuously because everyone respected the balance, and no one was willing to break it. After all, they might offend a lot of people in the process. This balance was broken when David arrived, and Mia announced that she would quit being one of the four fairies. I think David will expose his power and background soon.” Callan did not say that he felt someone was doing something behind his back, so that was why he could trounce Lucifer.
He thought a master was hiding among them, but now, this master seemed to be David.
‘But what did he do?
“How could he hide from the eyes of two Celestial Rankers?‘
This confused Callan a lot.
“Master Calla, since David is willing to offend many people because of Mia, why are you still so eager to befriend him?” The old man asked in confusion.
Chapter 1144
“You yourself said it‘s David who will offend them, not me. Before you know someone, it‘s better to be their friend than their enemy. Who knows if he‘s hiding an incredible power or identity? Let‘s go. We have to go back now. I finally made my family proud. I want to see how they will reward me.”
Callan left after he said that.
The old man followed behind him.
Inside the Octagon that just left Planet Staub.
“David, are we going to Planet Royal now?” Mia asked.
“No, we‘ll go to the Grim family first,” David answered. novelbin
“The Grim family?”
“Yes, the Grim family.”
“Why?”
“We‘re going to demand for an explanation. Lucifer lied to me just now. Not only did he waste my time, he even tried to disrespect you. How can we let this go?”
“David, forget it. The Grim family is ranked five among the eight prominent families. You can‘t compare them to the Tuffin family, who‘s about to drop off the list. We might not achieve anything if we go.”
After Mia said that, she remembered something and added, “David, it‘s not that I am looking down on you. I know you‘re powerful, and you‘re not scared of them. However, I don‘t think it‘s necessary. After all, we didn‘t lose anything.”
“What do you mean? I lost so much time. Also, didn‘t you see how Lucifer wanted to kill me? I can‘t stand this. Of course, I have another purpose.”
“What is it?” Mia asked.
“Since you‘ve decided to follow me, I should show you how powerful I am so that you won‘t be scared and nervous to do anything in the future.
“I‘m sorry, David. I‘ve embarrassed you,” Mia whispered apologetically.
“Alright, you don‘t have to apologize to me. Just listen to me. We‘ll go to the Grim family to get an explanation, and then we‘ll head to Planet Royal,” David decided.
“Yes, David,” Mia answered.
The Octagon started driving toward the planet where the Grim family stayed.
At this moment, Lucifer was in a Milky Way Battleship heading back to his home. Even though the two ships left one after another, the time between their journey did not differ much.
However, the Milky Way Battleship was much faster than the Octagon.
Right now, Lucifer was awake.
However, he still could not accept the reality of getting defeated by Callan.
He still could not wrap his head around it.
Why did Black Demon Palm, the combat skill that his grandmaster taught him, lose its effect? His grandmaster checked his Black Demon Palm before he left the family, and it had indeed reached entry level.
If he could hit Callan with a sneak attack, he would not be able to handle the Black Demon Poison
Moreover, he had used Black Demon Palm so many times, but Callan was still alive and well. He was not affected at all.
It was either something was wrong with his Black Demon Palm, or Callan had the skill to combat the Black Demon Palm.
If it were the former, it would be easy.
He could ask Grandmaster to look at it after he returned.
If it were the latter, then it would be troublesome.
He had to tell Grandmaster as soon as possible.
Grandmaster‘s threat to them would diminish if the Elrod family had a way to combat Black Demon Palm. This was good news to the Grim family.
Chapter 1145
Three days later. Planet Grim. This was where the Grim family, one of the eight prominent families in the Milky Way, stayed. The Grim family was ranked fourth among the eight prominent families. They were very powerful, and a declining family like the Tuffin family could not compare to them. The Grim family was one of the giants even among the Royal Region. novelbin
A Milky Way Battleship descended on Planet Grim.
The moment Lucifer got out, the people who were waiting for him brought him to the main residence.
The cores of the Grim family were waiting for him here.
After three days, they learned about Master Lucifer‘s battle with Master Callan in an arena on Planet Staub.
In the end, Callan defeated Lucifer and was even stepped on and humiliated. This matter had spread all over the Royal Region.
The two families were close in ranking. One was ranked fourth, and one was ranked fifth, so they had been enemies for a long time.
This was not just a fight between the two first heirs, it was also a fight between their families.
However, the result shocked everyone.
Unexpectedly, Lucifer suffered a crushing defeat. Now, the Grim family was the laughing stock of the entire Royal Region.
Everyone would talk about this during their chats. How could the first heir of the Grim family be so weak? Did this mean they did not have any more promising descendants now?
Anyway, Lucifer had completely humiliated the Grim family.
Even though he could not change the fact that he had lost, his family still needed to know what had happened.
Lucifer had been cultivating with the grandmaster these years, so how would he lose to Callan?
If Grandmaster found out about this, he would be fuming.
Back then, you were evenly matched with Callan, and now you‘re easily defeated after cultivating with me for so many years?
‘You even let him step on you?
‘Won‘t that tell the world that I am a horrible teacher?‘
Lucifer was brought to the hall.
The hall was filled with people. It was like they were going to have a joint hearing.
There were a lot of direct descendants in a huge family like the Grim family.
Right now, the ones at the scene were just some of the more important elders. As the eldest son, Lucifer was feeling terrified by such a stern situation.
“The unfilial son, Lucifer, is here to see you all.”
Lucifer stood in the middle of the hall. He placed his hands together, bowed, and said respectfully. As the eldest son and the first heir, he did not need to kneel.
If other children made such a serious mistake and humiliated the entire family, they would be kneeling on the ground begging for mercy.
The scene was quiet. No one was saying anything. The head of the Grim family, Derry Grim, did not say anything as he sat on the main seat. of course, the others would be tactful not to speak before him. Lucifer knew he had embarrassed his family and did not dare to be rash anymore.
“I‘ve humiliated the family and caused irreversible damage to the family name. I beg the family‘s elders to punish me,” Lucifer spoke again.
“It‘s good that you know you‘ve humiliated us. Do you know how long it‘s been since we‘ve been humiliated like this? Plus, you, the eldest son and first heir of the family, were the one who caused such huge damage to the family name and made us the laughing stock of so many in the Royal Region. How do you expect us to face the family‘s ancestors?” Derry scolded loudly.
“Grandpa, I was wrong! I‘m willing to accept punishment,” Lucifer lowered his head and mumbled.
“Do you think you can reverse the damage by saying that? I don‘t mind you losing to anyone else, but you lost to that Elrod punk. You were always evenly matched with him, but now that you‘ve followed Grandmaster for so many years, you can‘t even fight back? Are you telling everyone Grandmaster is a horrible teacher?”
“Grandpa! I am also unable to make heads or tails of how I lost. Until now, I still can‘t figure it out!”
“You better tell me everything in detail.”
“Yes, Grandpa!”
Chapter 1146
Next, Lucifer told Derry everything.
However, he did not tell Derry how he set a trap to lure David and Mia over.
He only said he had been locked up for so long, so after he accomplished Grandmaster‘s task and was let out, he wanted to come out and clear his head.
Then, he came to Planet Staub‘s arená to have fun.
Unexpectedly, Callan had also come over.
After that, the two started arguing, and then the argument turned into a fight…
The hall was silent after Lucifer stated what had happened. “You said you used Black Demon Palm on Callan, but it didn‘t do anything?” Derry asked.
“Yes, Grandpa. Grandmaster examined me after I learned Black Demon Palm, and that‘s why he let me out. However, it was useless to that punk Callan,” Lucifer said aggrievedly.
“Are you telling the truth? I‘m telling you, you better not lie. If not, don‘t even think of taking a step out of these doors.” “It‘s true, Grandpa. Believe me. Why would I lie about this? Even though I am usually a bit of a rascal, I wouldn‘t lie about such a serious matter,” Lucifer patted his chest and promised.
“If that‘s the case, do you have any guesses about the cause? You‘re the party involved and the only one who knows what happened in the fight.”
“Grandpa, there are two possibilities. It‘s either something‘s wrong with Black Demon Palm Grandmaster taught me, or the Elrod family has a way to counter it,” Lucifer answered.
After Lucifer said that, Derry scolded, “You bastard! What nonsense! Are you doubting Grandmaster?”
“I‘m just saying it‘s a possibility. If Black Demon Palm is not the problem, then it‘ll mean the Elrod family has a way to counter Black Demon Palm. If not, why would it not work on Callan? I didn‘t just use it once. I used it many times, but it never worked. That‘s why I was exhausted and gave that punk a chance to defeat me,” Lucifer roared. He knew he had to shift the family‘s attention. Only by doing this could he escape. If not, the grandmaster would not spare him so easily after causing such huge damage to the Grim family‘s reputation. If he could confirm that the Elrod family had a way to counter Black Demon Palm, he might even be rewarded!
After all, the families were mortal enemies. It would be no joke if the Grim family‘s enemy found a flaw in their combat skill. It would be better to find out and tackle it earlier than to find out when the two families were in battle.
If that happened, everything would be too late. Indeed, after Lucifer said that, the hall became noisy.
The core elders of the Grim family started to discuss among themselves.
They all knew that this was not a laughing matter if Lucifer was telling the truth. The two families would fight sooner or later. If the Elrod family hid this information and only exposed it when they fought, the Grim family would suffer a considerable loss.
The Elrod family might just turn the situation around and severely damage the Grim family.
Lucifer was a good example of this.
Before he knew the Elrod family‘s secret, he exhausted a lot of his energy every time he used Black Demon Palm.
If Lucifer used Black Demon Palm two or three times and still did not cause any damage to the enemy, he would surely lose.
Unless the enemy also used their combat skill to resist him.
If that were the case, he would have a chance since both sides would be equally exhausted.
Chapter 1147
When everyone was talking, the head of the family, Derry, spoke.
“Someone go and get me a captive from the prison. We‘ll see if Lucifer‘s Black Demon palm is working or not.”
Clearly, Derry also realized the seriousness of this, so he needed to test it out on someone.
If Lucifer‘s Black Demon Palm were fine, they would have to tell the grandmasters about this.
“Yes, Lord Derry.”
Immediately, someone stood up and answered before leaving the hall.
“Lucifer, if you‘re telling the truth, not only will the family forgive you for your mistake, you will even be rewarded,” Derry looked at Lucifer and said in gratification.
Derry was not angry like earlier; he was like a whole other person.
Derry looked gratified, and the other core family elders looked pleased as they looked at Derry.
‘This kid is the family‘s lucky star indeed.
The grandmaster, who had been stuck in his realm for many years, suddenly had a breakthrough when Lucifer was born.
Now that he was let out, he immediately noticed their enemy‘s huge secret.
‘The Elrod family found a flaw in Black Demon Palm?‘
This was useless to the other families, but the value of this information was immeasurable for the Grim family.
In addition, the possibility of Lucifer‘s Black Demon Palm not working was too miniscule.
After all, the grandmaster had examined it himself.
“Thank you, Grandpa! It‘s my honor to be able to contribute to the family. However, I feel terrible for humiliating the family right after I was let out,” Lucifer said lowly and apologetically.
Even though he was saying that, he was overjoyed on the inside.
He finally dodged this bullet.
Not only did he dodge this bullet, he even gained more recognition from his family, further solidifying his position as the family‘s lucky star.
In the future, he would have more rights to speak in the family.
“Master Lucifer, please don‘t say that. You‘re the family‘s lucky star. If it weren‘t for you, we wouldn‘t know about the Elrod family knowing the flaw of Black Demon Palm. We would suffer greatly if we ever engage in a battle in the future.”
“Yeah! Master Lucifer is our lucky star. When you were born, Grandmaster had a breakthrough, and now, you helped us dodge a bullet.”
“I‘m wondering how your injuries are, Master Lucifer. I have some treasures of heaven and earth that are good for treating serious injuries. I bought them with a lot of money, and I hope you can take them.”
“I have a pellet here too. It‘s effective for healing the body. Please accept this.”
The core elders were concerned about Lucifer‘s injuries and were all giving him any treasures that could heal his injuries.
They knew Lucifer‘s position in the family was unshakable now.
In the future, the family would be handed to Lucifer.
Therefore, it would be useful for their future if they wormed their way into a relationship with Lucifer right now.
Derry looked at this scene with a smile on his face.
Lucifer was his biological grandson.
Hence, he loved to see this scene.
“Thank you for your concern, Elders. Since you‘re all so passionate, it would be impolite for me to refuse,” Lucifer replied with a grin.
Then, he accepted the treasures the elders gave him.
Those things were precious, so it would be a waste not to take them.
“You‘re too humble, Master Lucifer. You got hurt for the sake of the family, so as your elders, this is what we should do.” “Yeah. Master Lucifer, you did so much for the family, so this is nothing.”
After exchanging some pleasantries, everyone went back to their seats.
Lucifer was also asked to sit at one side to wait for the prisoner.
“Lucifer, how are your injuries?” Derry asked. “Grandpa, I was just exhausted. I‘m fine now,” Lucifer answered.
Chapter 1148
“Can you use Black Demon Palm now?”
“Of course!”
“Great!”
Soon, two of the Grim family‘s guards escorted a disheveled prisoner into the hall.
“Kneel!”
The guard kicked the back of the prisoner‘s knees, causing the prisoner to kneel on the ground.
Then, the two guards knelt on the ground and said respectfully,” Greetings, Lord Derry. Greetings, Elders.”
“You may rise. We don‘t need you here anymore, so you‘re dismissed,” Derry said.
“Yes, Lord Derry.”
The guards left the hall after saying that.
At this moment, Lucifer knew it was his time to shine. He stood up and walked behind the prisoner.
When the prisoner saw someone walking toward him, he struggled with all his might. However, his mouth was taped over, and he could not speak.
Lucifer pressed down on the prisoner with his left hand and used his right hand to use Black Demon Palm. Black smoke was circling his right hand at this moment.
Then, he pressed his right palm on the prisoner‘s back.
Everyone on the scene watched the prisoner.
When the Black Demon Poison made contact with the prisoner, it penetrated his body.
The prisoner felt intense pain overwhelming him. He widened his eyes, and they were bloodshot. Since his mouth was taped over, he could only make grunting noises from his throat.
The prisoner fell on the ground head–first and died more than ten seconds later.
He could not resist Lucifer‘s Black Demon Palm with his current strength at all.
Derry got up and walked to the prisoner. Then, he flipped the prisoner over with his foot.
Black poison was traveling under the prisoner’s exposed skin, including in his face and hands.
Black Demon Poison!
This meant Lucifer‘s Black Demon Palm was fine.
Then, there was only the second possibility.
The Elrod family did indeed find a flaw in Black Demon Palm, and they could easily resist Black Demon Poison.
They had to tell the grandmasters immediately.
Derry lifted his head to look at the core elders of the family.
“Lucifer‘s Black Demon Palm is fine, meaning the Elrod family found the flaw in Black Demon Palm. This means we have lost an important combat skill against the Elrod family.”
Every core elder of the family showed an understanding expression.
“Lord Derry, what should we do now? The Elrod family must also know that their secret has been exposed. They might even attack us soon. If not, they won‘t be a threat to us when we finally find a way to combat this.”
“I think it‘s possible too! Right now, we should immediately tell the
grandmaster about this so we can be prepared when the Elrod family attacks us.”
“I agree!”
“I agree!”
The rest of the core elders expressed their opinions. novelbin
“Lucifer, you should go see the grandmasters with me right now. The rest of you should go back to your positions and get ready. At the same time, get the spies to keep an eye on the Elrod family. Immediately report to us if they do anything,” Derry said.
“Yes, Lord Derry!”
“Yes, Grandpa!”
Derry then brought Lucifer to see the grandmasters.
The rest of the core elders nervously prepared themselves.
They did not know that the Elrod family would not come. Instead, they would welcome someone on the same level as the emperor.
David‘s Octagon was getting closer and closer to Planet Grim.
Soon, this person equivalent to the emperor would descend on Planet Grim.
It would depend on David‘s mood if he wiped out the Grim family or spared them.
Chapter 1149
An Octagon approached Planet Grim. David spread his mind power and scanned the entire Planet Grim.
Immediately, he sensed four intense energies.
One mid–Infinity Ranker, and three beginner Infinity Rankers.
As expected of the fourth–ranked family among the eight prominent families, they were much stronger than the Tuffin family.
However, they were just so–so to David.
Even a large colony of ants could never best an elephant.
After confirming the location of the Grim family‘s grandmasters, David commanded the Octagon to get ready to descend.
After the four grandmasters learned about the Elrod family finding a flaw in Black Demon Palm and that they might attack at any time, they decided to all come out of seclusion to wait for the Elrod family.
At the same time, they were also discussing countermeasures.
Lucifer should have been a sinner to the Grim family after losing to Callan.
In the end, he discovered a shocking secret and immediately transformed into the Grim family‘s lucky star again.
Besides, Grandmaster Grim had a breakthrough when he was born.
Therefore, Lucifer‘s position in the family was even more unshakable.
Even the Grandmaster Grim praised him, calling him the family‘s lucky star and the hope for the development of the family.
Lucifer never expected things would develop in this direction as well.
This was such a shock to him.
He thought he would not escape calamity and he would surely receive
the most severe punishment from his family. Now, he was viewed as the family‘s savior.
Lucifer was very pleased with himself right now.
He was starting to lose himself in the countless praises.
At this moment, he thought he was the chosen one who God sent to lead the Grim family to glory. He was glowing right now.
Lucifer placed his hands behind his back and walked with his head high in the Grim Manor.
“Hello, Master Lucifer!”
“Hello, Master Lucifer!”
“Hello, Master Lucifer!”
Everyone who saw him on the way would stop and greet him politely, be it a servant, direct descendant, or an elder.
This whole time, Lucifer would only nod and grunt his reply.
He would only exchange pleasantries with some elders who held very high statuses.
Even if the grandmasters acknowledged him and he was sure to become the next head of the family, he could not be too arrogant.
Especially to the elders of the family.
Without their support, or if they worked together to oppose him, Lucifer would not have a day of peace, even if he was the head of the family.
Lucifer knew this in his heart.
Right now, he was enjoying this feeling.
Back then, even if Lucifer was the eldest son and the first heir, a lot of the direct descendants were unconvinced.
They even wanted to fight for the first heir position with him.
However, no one had such thoughts anymore.
Even if they did, they would hide these thoughts inside.
From now on, Lucifer was the head of the family‘s younger generation.
When he was strong enough, he would take over the Grim family.
However, Lucifer still had a sore spot in his heart: David and Mia.
He had to find those two after he settled this kerfuffle.
David had to die since he dared to touch Mia.
After he killed David, Lucifer would forcefully dominate Mia. “Master Lucifer, the grandmasters are asking for you.”
Chapter 1150
A voice interrupted Lucifer as he was deep in thought.
“I got it,” Lucifer answered.
Then, he turned around and followed the person to see the grandmasters.
Soon, they came to Grandmaster Grim‘s study.
Knock knock knock!
Lucifer knocked on the door and said, “Grandmasters, I am here!”
A voice said from inside, “Come in.”
Lucifer pushed the door open and went in.
There were five people in the room.
Four grandmasters, all infinity rankers, and the head Derry were inside.
Those five were the ones with the highest status in the family.
“Lucifer is here to greet you all, Grandmasters. Greetings, Grandpa,” Lucifer said respectfully.
“Lucifer is here. Come and sit,” an old man with white hair said gently.
That person was the strongest grandmaster in the Grim family. He was Marino Grim, a mid–Infinity Ranker.
He managed to improve to mid– Infinity Rank when Lucifer was born.novelbin
Therefore, Marino was very fond of Lucifer.
He felt that Lucifer was his and the family‘s lucky star. If not, how would he have inexplicably broken through the realm he was stuck in for centuries and was starting to feel hopeless when Lucifer was born?
“Thank you, Grandmaster!” Lucifer answered.
Then, he found an empty seat to sit in. “May I know why you summoned me?”
“Lucifer, I need to discuss something with you this time,” Marino said.
“Please, go ahead.”
“Our family will have a marital partnership with the Callisto family. What do you think about this?” Marino asked.
“This is good! Grandmaster, if we can have a marital partnership with them, it will be like two giants working together. Aside from the Drake family, we have long surpassed the other families. We can‘t miss such a good chance,” Lucifer answered happily.
He was troubled because he could not find that punk Callan.
Callan dared to step on his face in front of so many people. Lucifer would not give up if he did not seek revenge.
However, the two families were almost the same in strength.
In addition, the Elrod family knew the flaw in Black Demon Palm, so it might not be possible for Lucifer to seek revenge for the time being.
Even so, things would be different if the Grim family could have a marriage connection with the Callisto family.
If the second–ranked and fourth–ranked families among the eight prominent families worked together, without exaggerating, aside from the first–ranked Drake family, the other families would be nothing. If that happened, Lucifer would find a chance to kill that punk Callan secretly.
So what if the Elrod family found out? They would not dare to come to seek revenge, and they would only suffer this grievance in silence.
Lucifer felt great as he thought about this.
After the two families worked together, he would wait for his turn to take over the Grim family. Then, his family would definitely go up
another level.
“Indeed! However, the Callisto family is second to the Drake family among the eight families. If we propose marriage with them, we must send someone with a higher status.”
“Grandmaster, are you asking me to have a marriage connection with the Callisto family?” Lucifer asked with a frown.
“Yes. After all, you‘re the future head of the family. The Callisto family will only consider the marriage because of your status. They will surely not consider the others.”
“Then who am I marrying?”
“We are not sure yet. I have to go and discuss this with Grandmaster Callisto. However, don‘t worry. Since we are sending the future head of the family, they will not randomly send someone to deceive us.
You can go and check out the unmarried Callisto women. Tell me who you fancy, and then I‘ll go and ask for her hand for you,” Marino said.
“Alright, Grandmaster. Since you said that, I‘ll accept for the sake of the family‘s future development. However, I need to pick the woman myself,” Lucifer agreed after he thought about it.
If he refused, the grandmaster might not force him. Otherwise, they would not ask him to join in the discussion.
However, if he refused, he did not know when he would ever have the chance to seek revenge against Callan.
Lucifer was impetuous.
He did not believe in the saying ‘one should bide one‘s time and wait for the right opportunity to seek revenge‘.
He could not wait that long and would not miss out on any chance.
Besides, having a marital partnership with the Callisto family was good.
The Callisto family was huge and had many virtuous and gorgeous women.
He should just choose one with high status.
The grandmaster said he could choose a woman for himself anyway.
“No problem!” Marino guffawed and said.
