âTsk tsk tsk, what did I say just now? Itâs better to stay humble. Itâs not good to be too overconfident.
You thought you had me wrapped around your finger, but you never realized that to me, youâre just an ant that I could crush at any time,â David shook his hand and continued to mock.
âYes, yes, yes. Youâre right! I should have been humble and not overconfident. I was enlightened this time. let me go, I will listen to you and will never make the same mistake again,â Archimedes quickly If you agreed.
His life was in Davidâs hands, so how would he dare to go against David?
Saving himself was the most important thing now.
As long as he could stay alive, Archimedes would do anything.
He would even kneel and kowtow to apologize to David, let alone agree to everything he said.
This also showed that people with a high status would still need to submit obediently in front of the threat of death.
As the saying went, âA living dog is better than a dead lion.â
One would have nothing once they lost their life.
A lot of people said they were not afraid of death, but how many of them were truly unafraid when they facing death?
âArchimedes, you should be thinking of getting more powerhouses from your family to retaliate against me after you escape this, right?â
After David said that, Archimedes quickly promised, âNo! I would never! David, donât misunderstand. I never wanted to retaliate! If you let me go, I, Archimedes Lightfoot, the firstâinâline heir of the Lightfoot family, swear I will never retaliate against you. We will mind our own business from now on.â
âDo you think I will believe you? Archimedes, do you think a promise would stop a selfish person like you? Only fools would believe you!â As David said that, he exerted more strength on his fingers.
As he felt Davidâs fingers tightening around his head, Archimedes was petrified.
He thought David was about to kill him, so he cried while sobbing, âDavid, Master David, Lord David, I was wrong. Please let me go! As long as you let me go, I will never retaliate against you!â
âIs this your Master Archi? The firstâinâline heir and the future head of the Lightfoot family? Heâs just so- so. Are you sure the family wonât collapse if itâs handed to such a craven and cowardly person?â
David looked at Bernard and the others and asked.
âThis is between the core seniors and grandmasters. I am only responsible for his safety, and I have no right to question it. No matter what, Master Archi is the firstâinâline heir, and once he dies, the family will get the grandmasters. David, you should think properly about whether you can handle the wrath of Saints,â Bernard answered.
âAre you threatening me?â
âNo! I was just stating the facts.â
âAre Saints so amazing to you all? Why do you think your grandmasters can scare me into releasing your master?â David chortled and asked.
He stunned everyone when he asked that.
me when he asked that Everyone knew that Saints had the highest combat power in Star Kingdom.
They were all grandmasters in every force.
âIf Saints are not amazing, is there someone else more amazing than that?
âIs this kid stupid?
âHe just asked Master Archi to stay humble but heâs looking down on Saints now.â
âDavid, you canât insult Saints. If the Saints Association hears about this, you will not have a place to hide in this vast universe. Let Master Archi go now, and we can pretend this never happened. If not, it wonât be our grandmasters whoâre coming after you. Instead, itâll be the Saints of Star Kingdom,â
another late Sovereign Ranker said.
âAre you trying to scare me?â David asked indifferently.
âIâm not. Everyone in Star Kingdom knows that you canât insult a Saint. Anyone who dares to go against it will have to pay a huge price or even lose their life. What you said has already insulted the Saints.â
âI canât insult a Saint, huh? Yeah, this is a good rule. I like it.â
âDavid, what the hell do you want?â Bernard finally asked, unable to hold himself back anymore.
