Chapter 51: Putting the plan into action

"Close your eyes and don't resist." Mary raised her milky white hand in his direction and asked him to place his on top of her.

Without dilly-dallying, David did just that; instantly, he felt as if he had touched the softest thing in the world.

Before David could fully appreciate Mary's tender skin, his mind was filled with unknown information in an instant.

He had taken Mary's earlier advice to heart and didn't resist, but the information felt foreign as if it didn't belong to him.

At the same time; inside his Spiritual Space, several pillars of various light appeared.

Compared with the Purple pillar which was flickering with unknown symbols; these new ones looked flimsy and illusory as If they would collapse at any moment.

As it is rightly said, a hungry lion is still heavier than a fat rabbit; although illusory and hollow, the pillars did what they were supposed to do, after their appearance the Spiritual Space stabilized with every passing minute.

Mary finally let go of his hands after some time, and looked at him with a strange look in her eyes.

Such control over mana!

When she had touched his hands, she felt not a single leakage of mana outside his body as if it didn't exist.

Weird.

David took a look at the status report to see what had changed, although he trusted Mary but when it came about his own safety, it was better to be safe than sorry.

After confirming there was nothing strange, he closed the window and thanked Mary for her help, and inquired, if she knew of any other way to comprehend laws.

Hearing his question, she pondered for a moment before answering.

"The alchemical pills are the best option, and second best would be to visit dimensional gates." Sёarch* The ηovelFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

They chatted back and forth for a moment after which David took his leave.

He directly headed towards the mountain pass, and met Jason Tiger. David had to push his plan forward, he had no other options now.

In front of him was Jason with a respectful expression on his face.

"So only ten Foundation Building Realm cultivators pass through this place." David spoke in a disappointed voice.

Only ten, that was an abysmally small number.

"But why are you asking that senior?" Jaosn voiced out his question in confusion, not understanding what David wanted to do.

"It's nothing, I am just feeling too rich and want to donate some of my money.

Ohh! The pain of being a rich man…"

David only looked at him and nonchalantly commented.

Whistle~

However, before David could complete his words, a loud whistling noise resounded throughout the pass.

The pass instantly boiled with activity and Tiger gang members started to hide and take cover.

"Senior, a wealthy group might be approaching."

With those words Jason also started running and David followed him from behind.

Jason hid behind a large rock and waited.

David also found himself a place to hide, he could somewhat understand what they were doing.

He didn't have to wait for long, after five minutes a carriage guarded by four bulky looking men arrived at the entrance of the pass.

Inside the carriage, an old man with wrinkled skin looked out of the window with worry.

Sitting directly in front of the Old man, was a baby-faced girl, barely eighteen years old. Unlike the old man, the girl looked at her surroundings with curiosity as this was the first time she was moving out of her little village.

The old man was a merchant from a nearby village and he was traveling along with his granddaughter to Ashwood City.

His granddaughter had managed to awaken her Crystallization of Life and the old man wanted her to study in Ashwood Academy, so that she can cultivate properly.

But to reach Ashwood City they had to take a long route infested with bandits.

Old man had heard a lot about the notorious reputation of the Tiger Gang, so therefore he had hired the strongest men to protect them on the journey, but his heart was still filled with fear.

Crunch!

The carriage slowly moved through the empty mountain pass, its wheel grinding the bones lying on the ground to powder.

Suddenly, a gentle wind blew and sound of something moving through the air at an incredible speed was heard throughout the pass.

"Quick!" One of the men was the first to react and ducked, however, the rest of them weren't as fast as him.

Argh!

The swift arrows coated with unknown substances pierced the bulky man's chests and they fell on the ground like autumn leaves.

"Dammmn! Costing over 4,000 spirit stones but couldn't even defend us for 4 seconds."

Old man cursed in his head after hearing the commotion outside, his face turned ugly, the old man's worst fear had come true.

"Grandpa, what's happening outside." Jasmine asked in an innocent voice, not understanding what was happening.

Jasmine's grandfather, the wrinkled old man, looked at her and didn't know what to say.

Ever since she was young, Jasmine had lived a sheltered life barely going out of their house, so she hadn't seen any bloodshed.

He couldn't tell her the guards they had brought were killed by the bandits.

"Hahah! Nice, Bald donkey, your skills improved,"

"Old cougar, You jest, I am still learning."

Rowdy voices along with unbridled laughter resounded from outside.

"Grandpa who is outside." Jasmine curiously asked, her eyes filled with puzzlement.

Suddenly, the gate of the cabin was pushed open from outside.

Old man hurriedly rushed towards his granddaughter to hide her behind his back.

"Jasmine, stay still for a moment and don't speak."

Although the innocent girl didn't understand, she could feel the seriousness in her grandfather's voice.

"What do we have here?"

"Ohh! An old man in a luxurious carriage."

"We have hit the jackpot this time."

Tiger gang members joyously yelled, their voices filled with greed and extreme delight.
