Chapter 270-Money Devouring Devil
Dave and Yudi materialized in the Iris World, a realm comparable in strength to the Mia World. Here, the most formidable individuals were on par with Gong’s power.
Without delay, they made their way to the capital city of the world.
As they strolled towards the teleportation portal, a plump woman attempted to kidnap Dave, captivated by his handsome visage. Yudi swiftly intervened, delivering a punch to the would-be abductor and reprimanding her.
To their surprise, the woman turned out to be the niece of the world’s ruler. Fuming with anger, she called upon her uncle, seeking retribution for her guards’ defeat at the hands of Dave and Yudi.
When the ruler arrived on the scene, he recognized Yudi and promptly offered his apologies. Dave, ever the opportunist, saw a chance for some extort… ehem, compensation.
He engaged in what some might call “negotiation,” though it paled in comparison to his encounter with Gong.
Dave demanded five treasures and two billion spirit stones as restitution. The ruler, resigned to his misfortune, did his utmost to fulfill the demand, even if it strained him.
Once the compensation was paid, the ruler personally escorted Dave and Yudi to the teleportation portal, bidding them farewell with a familiar smile
…
Dave turned to Yudi, curiosity evident in his eyes. “Yudi, why can’t you teleport me directly to the Alexander Domain?” he inquired.
Yudi replied with a knowing smile, “Only the core members of that clan possess the privilege of direct teleportation to the domain. Anyone else who attempts to do so will face the wrath of the Alexander Clan’s guards and be added to their blacklist.”
Yudi, intrigued by Dave’s insistence on reaching the Alexander Domain, probed further. “Why do you want to go there?” he asked.
Dave simply smiled back at him, offering no verbal response. Deep within, Dave grappled with uncertainty. He wondered whether his father had already established a foothold in the domain or if his great-grandfather held sway as its ruler. A
ware of the potential internal conflicts within the clan, Dave considered the possibility of an enemy plotting against them. Revealing his true identity might expose him to assassination attempts.
Nevertheless, Dave found solace in his status as the heir of a True Saint. No one knew that the True Saint had already passed away, allowing him to adopt an air of arrogance.
He could easily create the illusion that he was sent by his master to travel and gain experience, further bolstering his confidence.
As Dave and Yudi continued their interstellar journey, rumors began to spread among the rulers of various worlds. Whispers circulated about a money-devouring devil roaming the Immortal Plane, ready to cause trouble and extort exorbitant prices from unsuspecting targets.
The rulers, gripped by fear, hoped desperately that they would be spared from the devil’s presence. They warned their subordinates to exercise caution and avoid acting arrogantly upon encountering a handsome man with red hair accompanied by the middle-aged Yudi.
Dave astutely observed the change in behavior among the rulers, noting their newfound reserve and avoidance of trouble.
Seizing the opportunity, he decided to alter his appearance, ensuring that he and Yudi went unrecognized. This allowed them to continue their mischievous exploits, creating chaos and extracting money at their leisure.
The rumor of the money-devouring devil spread even to the middle-level worlds. Dave relished the surge of sin points and reveled in the anger and fear he instilled in others.
Yudi remained oblivious to Dave’s true motives, obediently following his master’s desires. He marveled at Dave’s ability to accumulate wealth effortlessly and regarded him as a brilliant individual.
….
Three days had passed, and a handsome man and a middle-aged companion found themselves seated in a cozy restaurant. Delicious dishes and fine wine adorned their table. Close to the handsome man, a small dragon named Draco greedily devoured a massive piece of meat without pause. It was Dave and Yudi, taking a moment to rest and indulge in a meal, even though they had no real need for sustenance. Dave simply wanted to please Draco, his partner in crime during their extortion escapades.
Draco, at times, appeared as a solitary dragon without a master, attracting the attention of those who sought to snatch him. However, the moment they tried, he would swiftly emerge, unleashing his might and demanding compensation for their audacity.
Their journey had led them through numerous worlds, bypassing lower-level realms and some middle-tier worlds, as they continued their mission of extortion. Now, Dave was immensely wealthy, having collected a staggering 500 billion spirit stones by extorting rulers in seventy different worlds. Each time he targeted a ruler, he obtained valuable treasures. Although he hadn’t kept a close eye on his sin points, he knew they had accumulated substantially, given the fear and anger he instilled in others.
Dave had earned himself the moniker of the Money Devouring Devil and had become quite famous. However, now that he had arrived in a top-tier world, he realized that he needed to adopt a low-key approach. To be classified as a top-tier world, a Saint Emperor was required, and with only Yudi holding that title and still lacking the other three subordinates, he couldn’t afford to forcefully assert himself.
Meanwhile, Ronin continued his training of others, occasionally visiting them. Their roars and expressions of agony reached Dave’s ears, but he chose to turn a blind eye, understanding that this process was necessary for their growth.
He also dedicated some of his time to his women, entrusting their training to Gabriella in his absence. The progress of the ladies was remarkably swift, thanks to their diligent dual cultivation every night. Blizzard, too, thrived under Gabriella’s guidance. Dave’s world continued to develop, and his other clones had already conquered 400 worlds in the mortal plane, unbeknownst to the other guardians due to his spy.
Dave contemplated that if this pattern persisted, he could simply bask in the company of his loved ones and still grow stronger, as long as he continued to accumulate sin points. The allure of a blissful existence with his companions beckoned him, fueled by the prospect of even greater power.
