Ch. 951..960
I’m A Quadrillionaire chapter 951
Adan knew it was impossible for them to escape today.
If his opponent could become a strong peak Cosmos Rank at a young age, how would he be so easily fooled by Adan?
Now, Adan started feeling calm.
“Why do you have to force me?” Adan said with a sigh.
“It‘s not that I‘m forcing you, you are the ones forcing us. We were just living our lives when Pavan came to Earth trying to enslave us. After I killed him, you came too. Then, when your family finds out something bad happens to you, they will probably send stronger people over. Say, who did we provoke to get this treatment?”
“You didn‘t provoke anyone. If you want to blame someone, you can only blame yourselves for still being an indigenous living planet when Pav discovered you.”
“So we deserved to be enslaved just because of this?” David gradually increased the volume of his voice.
“You don‘t have to get so emotional. You would also do the same once you reach our level.”
“Don‘t worry, I won‘t,” David said seriously.
Adan laughed and did not answer.
Instead, he took out a vial filled with some sort of potion.
It looked similar to the genetic drug, but the liquid inside was
crimson.
“Grandpa! Don‘t!” lone stopped when she saw Adan take out the crimson potion.
“Lord Adan, you…”
Nine also wanted to persuade him, but when he recalled the situation the three of them were in now, he swallowed his words.
Adan did not say anything more.
After taking out the crimson potion, he opened it and put it in his mouth before drinking it.
David watched it all from a distance.
He instinctively felt that the thing in Adan‘s hands was not simple.
Hence, he quickly acted.
He instantly crossed a distance of two to three hundred kilometers and appeared in front of Adan.
After that, he aimed his punch at the trio.
‘Void Punch!
This was a punch that could easily penetrate the Milky Way Battleship.
However, Adan did not show any sign of panic as he faced the punch.
The energy emitting from his body kept intensifying. Then, he also punched at David.
Boom!
The two punches collided.
The intense aftermath created a storm in the void which radiated in all four directions.
David‘s eyes narrowed.
He could feel the strong energy from Adan‘s punch.
Then, his body was pushed dozens of kilometers away.
‘H–How is this possible?‘
David was very shocked inside.
He did not hold back at all when he threw the punch.
The Void Punch from a peak Cosmos Ranker could easily destroy the Milky Way Battleship.
Meanwhile, he could feel that Adan was just a mid–Cosmos Ranker. However, when he drank the crimson potion, his combat power skyrocketed suddenly.
It was just a hasty punch, but it was already on par with his.
Sure enough, the people of these big families were not simple, and they all had their own trump cards.
Adan was also blasted back dozens of kilometers by David’s Void Punch.
Nine and lone were behind him, but they were not affected by
the battle between Adan and David.
Otherwise, the shockwave from the colliding punches just now could easily have shocked the two to death.
“You two stand back. If I win, immediately use the Earth‘s Internet to notify the family and tell Orson everything that happened here. Tell them to come over as quickly as possible. If I lose, then you don‘t have to do anything. If you can escape, escape. If you can‘t, I can‘t do anything about it either, do you understand?” Adan said through gritted teeth.
“Understood, Grandpa.”
“Understood, Lord Adan.”
Nine and lone answered at the same time.
David was hundreds of kilometers away as he looked at Adan in the distance.
At this time, Adan was reacting after taking the crimson potion.
Not only did his skin turn crimson, but even his eyes, hair, and eyebrows had turned crimson.
In addition to that, his entire body was filled with violent energy.
Even though David was far away, he could clearly feel it.
Adan was taking Blood–Burning Potion, which was a hundred times more precious than the genetic drug.
It could instantly invade every cell in the body when the consumer took it.
It would then enhance cell vitality and strength. At the same time, it would significantly increase the consumer‘s combat
power for a short period.
However, Blood–Burning Potion was different from the genetic drug. The genetic drug had no side effects.
I’m A Quadrillionaire chapter 952
It would only trigger a person‘s talent.
If the person was not gifted, taking a genetic drug would not do anything.
On the contrary, the side effect of the Blood–Burning Potion was huge.
It would directly stimulate every one of the consumer’s cells.
No matter who took it, their combat power would increase for a short time.
Even if ordinary people took it, they would instantly become extremely powerful.
If the consumer did not take a cooperative drug to get rid of the effect midway through the cycle, the cells in their body would die after glowing and heating up.
After which, the user would die.
The sooner it was removed, the fewer side effects the consumer would experience.
However, this side effect was small, and it was not very relevant.
This was because even if the person drank the antidote the moment they took the Blood–Burning Potion, not only would this person‘s future be doomed, they would have no way of breaking through to the next realm anymore.
Their lifespan would also be greatly reduced.
Also, the cells in their body would fall into a semi–dormant state after being stimulated.
The consumer would experience a long period of weakness.
One could not say that the price of consuming it was not significant.
The Blood–Burning Potion would use the consumer‘s lifespan to improve their strength and rescue them from their short–term crisis.
If they were not desperate, no one would take the Blood–Burning Potion.
Aside from being precious, it would even accelerate the death of the consumer and ruin the consumer‘s future.
Adan also knew that he would die, so he took the Blood–Burning Potion to take a gamble.
If he won, he might still live.
If he lost, then there was nothing more to say.
“What did you just drink? Why did your combat power increase so much?” David could not stop himself from asking.
“Ah!” Adan let out a furious roar.
His body disappeared from its location, and he rushed toward David.
He did not have time to answer David‘s question now.
Right now, for Adan, time was everything.
If he could relieve himself from the blood–burning stage one second earlier, it would also give him more time to live.
When David saw that the other party was not answering, he did not waste his breath.
He also charged at the frantic Adan.
David had never been afraid of a head–on collision with someone at the same level as him.
The system strengthened his body, but Adan was even less afraid.
The cells in his body had been stimulated to the extreme now, so he felt like he had infinite power.
Boom!
The two collided and recoilled in an instant.
Then, they continued to charge at each other again.
Boom boom boom boom boom!
Countless collisions resounded throughout the void.
Every sound was deafening.
The Earth‘s powerhouses and Nine in the distance had to cover their ears and continue to back away in pain.
As the spectators, they could not see David and Adan at all, and they could only hear loud collisions in the void.
Their punches were extremely hard when they landed on their opponent‘s body.
The more David fought, the more apprehensive he felt.
He was a peak Cosmos Ranker, and with the addition to his top combat skill Void Punch, his power had almost reached partial Celestial Rank.
Adan was only a mid–Cosmos Ranker, but after taking the crimson potion, he could fight David for so long without losing out.
Adan might even be slightly better than him.
This made it difficult for David to believe the power of this potion.
This was the technological gap between the two.
A level 3 civilization was so much more advanced than Earth‘s level 0.7 civilization.
I’m A Quadrillionaire chapter 953
The side effects of the Blood–Burning Potion would not only stimulate cells, overdraft the vitality of body cells in advance, and reduce the lifespan of users, but it would also affect the consumer‘s brain.
It would put the consumer in a state of rage, and they would only have one thing on their mind: to kill the enemy as fast as
possible.
Moreover, their sense of pain would gradually disappear.
In the later stage, the consumer will even lose control, making them unable to distinguish between friend or foe.
As time went by and the battle time drew on, David also noticed something was wrong.
Although Adan‘s combat power had significantly improved and David‘s peak Cosmos Ranker strength alongside his Void Punch were disadvantaged in this head–on collision, something abnormal seemed to be happening to Adan.
Adan did not dodge or defend. Instead, all he knew was to charge and attack David.
Thus, he could only hit David once after receiving two or three blows from David.
However, that one hit was enough to cause David debilitating pain.
Boom!
Boom!
One hit after another.
Then, the two were blown backward once again.
After Adan stopped himself, he did not stop before charging at David once again.
Blood flowed from the corner of David‘s lips.
After fighting for so many rounds, his organs were injured by the buildup from the battle with Adan.
David frowned as he looked at Adan, who was still charging at him.
He could not keep doing this.
His opponent seemed not to be scared of death or pain.
David would suffer a massive loss if he continued to fight like
this.
He decided not to have any head–on collisions with Adan next.
He would decide what to do after delaying Adan for some time.
Adan‘s enhanced strength would not last long after taking the drugs.
Once the drugs had worn off, Adan was no match for David at all.
Also, David would not believe this kind of item would have no side effects.
Mason and the other elites from Earth in the distance were very nervous, especially after they saw blood flowing from the corner of David‘s mouth.
Selena screamed in horror.
Of course, aside from praying for David in their hearts, they could not do anything else.
If they got close to this level of battle, they would be killed and injured by the collateral damage.
Although Nine and lone saw that Adan had the upper hand in the battle, they were not happy inside.
Their expressions became more and more solemn.
Of course, they knew the use of the Blood–Burning Potion.
If he could not kill the enemy in a short time after taking the potion, then as the battle progressed, the consumer would be increasingly disadvantaged.
If Adan could not kill the enemy after a while, they would flee on their own.
Otherwise, they would only die after the effect of Adan‘s drug wore off.
The two looked at David standing in the distance.
Blood flowed from the corners of his mouth, so he had to be injured.
However, his injury was not that serious.
‘How did this guy reach this stage?
‘He‘s at such a young age, but he has this level of combat ability.
‘No one in the entire Milky Way galaxy can surpass him.
‘He‘s like... a devil.
‘Why did Pavan provoke such a person?
‘Wasn‘t he creating an enemy for the Tuffin family?
‘If we give this aborigine more time to grow, he might destroy the entire family
When Nine first learned that he was going to plant a slave mark on the planet Pavan discovered, he thought of Pavan as his savior.
He had given Nine such a huge gift even in his death.
Now, he had cursed Pavan a million times in his heart.
Pavan was dead, yet he wanted them to be his burial offering.
Moreover, he might implicate the entire Tuffin family.
‘He‘s just an idiot who can‘t do anything right. He‘s going to get all of us in trouble.’
Meanwhile, David was planning to fight around Adan.
I’m A Quadrillionaire chapter 954
He chose not to fight head–on with Adan anymore, as Adan was not weak.
After the surge in combat power, he was no slower than David.
David could not go very far before he had to turn around and fight Adan a few times.
Then, he would take the opportunity to continue to escape, and this would extend the time.
After several repetitions, the effect of this strategy was starting to show.
After a long time, Adan still failed to kill David, and he was starting to become increasingly irritable.
After David had escaped from him several times, a wild beast like roar came out of his mouth, shocking everyone.
Adan was dying to tear David to pieces.
At this time, David felt like he was not facing a person, but a fierce beast blinded by rage.
In reality, David was not wrong.
The efficacy–enhancing ingredient for the Blood–Burning Potion was the blood from a galaxy beast called the Ancient T–Rex.
An Ancient T–Rex was physically powerful, but violent.
It was born with the body of a Satellite Ranker. However, once it
grew up, its physical strength could reach Cosmos Rank.
It was also a mighty race in the universe.
Therefore, the Blood-Burning Potion made by using its blood as an efficacy–enhancing ingredient was also very precious.
Those who take it would also be affected by the irascible gene in the blood of Ancient T–Rex.
Their emotions would slowly get out of control, which was also one side effect
David might not have had such an easy time if Adan could stay cognizant.
If Adan could not do anything to David, he could have just charged at Mason and the earthlings. After he killed all of them, he would descend on Earth and destroy it.
In his current state, a few punches from him could directly blow up and destroy the Earth.
David did not want this to happen, so he could only stop Adan and fight head–on with him.
This would then prevent David‘s strategy of skirting around Adan.
However, the technology level of the level 3 civilization could not remove the irritable gene in the Ancient T–Rex‘s blood.
Unfortunately, other galaxy beast’s blood could not achieve the effect of stimulating the cells like Ancient T–Rex blood, so this was price they had to pay.
Boom!
A loud bang could be heard.
David turned around and punched Adan.
After that, he backed away before immediately fleeing.
“Roar!”
A roar came out of Adan‘s mouth.
The crimson color of his entire body began to grow increasingly vivid.
When Nine and lone saw this happening , they looked at each other and started backing away.
They were preparing to get out of here.
Judging from Adan‘s current state, the efficacy of the Blood Burning Potion had reached its late stage.
At this time, he needed to vent, and it did not matter if his target was his friend or foe.
He would kill everything he laid eyes on, including Nine and lone.
Besides , even if Adan could dissipate the effect of the Blood Burning Potion at this time, he would not be able to live long.
Rumble rumble rumble!
Adan‘s energy started increasing again.
He had reached partial Celestial Rank.
His body started emitting crimson gas.
Gradually, the gas enveloped his body.
Then, he adopted the form of an Ancient T–Rex.
‘What?‘
David looked at Adan in shock.
He had never seen this before.
Not only him, but all the elites from Earth were staring at Adan with shock on their faces.
“Roar!”
The Ancient T–Rex that formed by the crimson gas roared into the sky, making a sound that would intimidate the blue dome of heaven.
I’m A Quadrillionaire chapter 955
The roar of the Ancient T–Rex shocked David and the other onlookers.
David could feel the energy coming from Adan‘s body. It was even more powerful than the explosion of the Milky Way Battleship.
‘What is this?
‘How can it turn someone into this?‘
The roar stopped.
Adan‘s crimson eyes stared at David.
David was stunned.
‘What kind of eyes are those?
‘I can’t see any trace of human emotions.
‘It‘s full of tyranny.
‘Those eyes seem to want to destroy the whole world.
Woosh!
Adan teleported and instantly appeared in front of David.
As the Ancient T–Rex formed by the crimson gas around Adan turned around, it shifted its body sideways and swept its tail toward David.
It was so fast that it was too late for David to escape.
David instinctively folded his hands across his chest in a defensive stance.
Thud!
After a loud sound, David only felt a tremendous force coming toward him.
His body was swept hundreds of kilometers away by the Ancient T–Rex formed by the crimson gas seeping out of Adan‘s body.
He could feel fiery pain coming from his forearms.
Even though David‘s endurance was very high, he could not stop himself from inhaling sharply.
Before he could come back to his senses, Adan appeared in front of him again and crashed into him.
Thud!
Another loud sound.
“Pfft!”
David spat a mouthful of blood, and his body flew backward again.
David‘s organs were injured by Adan‘s attack.
If the system did not strengthen David‘s body, that attack would be enough to turn his body into a pile of flesh and blood.
Even so, David endured debilitating pain.
He started to curse in his heart.
‘What the hell is going on?
‘It was supposed to be a sure–win fight, but why did something so unexpected happen?
‘If everyone from the Tuffin family takes the potion, how will i fight them?
‘Won‘t they be invincible?‘
David had no idea that the Blood–Burning Blood was something extraordinarily precious, even in the Milky Way.
It was difficult to get the blood of a galaxy beast like the Ancient T–Rex.
The entire Tuffin family did not have many Blood–Burning Potions. Furthermore, the side effects of taking it were grave.
Only the core high–level leaders of some major forces and the dead warriors they cultivated would be equipped with this potion.
David was a master of Ancient Traditional Medicine, so he knew his condition now.
Ignoring the severe pain in his body, he quickly took out the silver needle while in the process of retreating and stabbed it into his chest to stop the bleeding of his internal organs.
After he finished doing that, Adan approached him again with the crimson Ancient T–Rex wrapped around him.
‘Damn it! You‘ll think I am weak if I don‘t show you my power.’
David was furious, and he charged toward Adan with full force.
‘Void Punch!
David swung his fist at Adan.
However, Adan caught this powerful punch that carried enough force to destroy a small planet.
No, the crimson Ancient T–Rex wrapped around Adan’s body caught it because David did not even touch Adan‘s hand.
‘What kind of f*cking monster is this?‘ David could not help scolding in his heart.
He had never encountered such a formidable enemy.
While catching David‘s fist, Adan flicked his tail and swung it at David again.
‘Oh no! David wanted to retract his right hand.
I’m A Quadrillionaire chapter 956
He wanted to dodge the blow.
However, he found that he could not bring his hand back as it was being firmly grasped by Ancient T-Rex‘s claws.
David knew the power of this tail, so he did not dare to let it hit him.
Therefore, he could only slam into Adan, pushing the two of them back simultaneously.
Although this did not hurt Adan at all, at least it kept David out of the reach of the Ancient T–Rex‘s tail.
David‘s right hand was trapped so he could not break free.
He could only make a fist with his left hand and repeatedly punched the crimson Ancient T-Rex‘s head.
Thud thud thud thud thud!
After a dozen punches, David‘s left hand was dripping with blood, but he still did not care.
Adan held David‘s fist with his left hand that was equipped with claws.
Then, Adan raised his knee while David kicked out.
Boom!
The two collided, and their bodies separated at the same time.
David bared his teeth and rubbed his wrist.
‘Damn, this beast is tough to deal with.
‘I wonder what that crimson potion is and how it can add so much combat power to someone.
‘I should get some for myself just in case.‘
If David knew the side effects of the Blood–Burning potion, he would not want to take any.
David looked at Adan from a distance.
Adan looked like he had a crimson beast–shaped coat draped over his body.
‘This ball of gas has such great offense and defense.
‘If I can‘t break through this layer, I won‘t be able to hurt Adan inside.
‘If I can‘t hurt him, I will eventually die from exhaustion.
‘Even if I am an expert in Ancient Traditional Medicine and I can try my best to avoid any blows to my vital parts and stem my wounds temporarily, I won‘t be able to withstand this for long.
‘What should I do?‘
David did not know what to do at this moment.
Now, he had basically shown all his trump cards.
He had a peak Cosmos Ranker combat power, and he had used Void Punch, one of the top combat skills.
‘Wait...
David‘s eyes lit up.
He still had two top combat skills.
He could not use the Evil–Splitting Sword Technique as he did not have a sword right now, but he could use the Air Crushing Slap.
The description stated that the Air Crushing Slap could ignore all obstacles in any space.
‘Does it mean I can ignore the crimson gas exterior and directly hurt Adan?‘
As David was wondering what he should do to Adan, Adan struck again.
He had disappeared from his location and appeared in front of David.
Even though he was in a state of rage and could not stop and think calmly, he knew he should kill the person in front of him as fast as he could.
Adan waved his claw at David. Then, David nimbly dodged this attack.
At the same time, he slapped Adan‘s chest.
‘Air Crushing Slap!
Not only did Adan not dodge, he even grabbed David with his other hand.
Right now, aside from killing David, he had no other thoughts in his head.
Boom!
“Pfft!”
David endured the strong claw on his shoulder voluntarily. At the same time, he spat out another mouthful of blood.
This attack worsened his injuries.
Since Adan‘s claw was much stronger than David‘s arm, David could only endure an attack from the opponent before he could land the Air Crushing Slap on the opponent‘s chest.
He grabbed Adan‘s claw with his left hand and used his right hand to slap Adan‘s chest with the Air Crushing Slap.
Even though the crimson gas beast enveloped Adan, this energy passed through the gas and penetrated Adan‘s body, going straight to his heart.
I’m A Quadrillionaire chapter 957
The void plunged into silence.
David grabbed the arm of Adan‘s beast‘s coat with his left hand while his right hand formed an open palm on Adan‘s chest in the form of a slap.
The two stood silently in the void, and neither of them moved.
David indeed looked worrying in his current state.
His clothes were all tattered and covered with bloodstains.
Selena was apprehensive. At the same time, Mason and the elites from Earth were also very nervous.
After all, the outcome of this battle was related to the life and death of tens of billions of human beings on Earth.
As for Nine and lone, they had long since disappeared.
Adan stared at David with big blood–red eyes like he was about to eat David.
However, the blood red tint in his eyes slowly faded away.
The crimson gas beast surrounding his body also began to dissipate.
“Pfft!”
Adan spat out a mouthful of blood.
His breathing began to decline rapidly and immediately reached its lowest point.
Only at this moment did he wake up from his rage.
His eyes were full of disbelief.
He was in the Ancient T-Rex state after using Blood–Burning Potion, but he was defeated before the drug wore out.
The Blood–Burning Potion was precious in the Milky Way and could enhance one‘s combat power according to the consumer‘s situation.
I‘ve already reached partial Celestial Rank, yet I‘ve been defeated?
‘How can that be?‘
Adan opened his mouth to speak, but when he opened his mouth, blood began to pour out of it continuously.
David‘s Air Crushing Slap went straight through his defenses, shattering his heart.
Even a Cosmos Ranker like Adan could not bear the heart shattering injury.
What was more, he was already a spent force.
He would surely die if the Blood–Burning Potion‘s efficacy wore off.
Adan was speechless and could only stare fixedly at David.
However, as his life slowly faded, his eyes also began to close slowly.
His body slumped sideways, and he fell into the void.
Lord Adan of the Tuffin family, who had wandered rampantly through the Milky Way for many years, died like this in the impoverished area on the edge of the Milky Way.
“Cough cough...”
David coughed violently.
Adan‘s death also lifted the weight off his heart.
If David could not deal with Adan with the Air Crushing Slap, he would not know what to do anymore.
Today‘s battle was definitely the most difficult one of his life.
He had used up almost all his trump cards.
He barely achieved victory until the very last minute.
Selena, Mason, and the others were overjoyed to see David win.
The Earth finally escaped doom yet again.
They hurried to David while Selena stepped forward to support David.
The others stood by
David looked at Selena next to him. After he thought about it, he did not decline and allowed Selena to support him.
“David, how do you feel? Are you badly injured?” Mason asked in worry.
David shook his hands and said, “I’m fine. This is nothing, Old Master Stefani, don‘t worry about me. I know medicine, and I know my condition. I’ll be fine after some rest.”
“That‘s good. That‘s good.”
Mason let out a visible sigh.
“Thank you for saving the Earth once again, Mr. David. You‘re the hero of all earthlings. Please accept my admiration toward you,” one of the powerhouses from Earth said, putting his hands together and bowing.
The others also bowed at David and said, “Please accept our admiration toward you, Mr. David.”
“Don‘t be so humble, everyone. Earth is my home. As long as I am here, I won‘t let anyone invade Earth,” David said righteously
“Mr. David, you are our model. We will definitely learn from you. We will use our lives to protect our home and Earth.”
“We will use our lives to protect our home and Earth,” the others repeated.
David looked at the impassioned powerhouses from Earth.
I’m A Quadrillionaire chapter 958
David also felt very comforted.
Although there might be some slight friction between the major forces, everyone still knew their priorities when facing foreign enemies.
They were able to unite and fight against foreign enemies.
This was pretty amazing.
“I‘m relieved that everyone thinks so.”
After David finished speaking, he looked at Adan‘s corpse floating in the void.
He turned his head and motioned for Selena to let him go first.
After that, he walked up to Adan and started examining his body.
As he examined further, David‘s frown deepened.
After he finished the examination, David‘s face turned dark.
Mason and the others felt the weight return onto their chests again after it was lifted earlier.
“What‘s wrong? David, is there a problem?” Mason asked.
“Oh! No problem, don‘t worry, Old Master Stefani,” David said after returning to his senses.
At this time, he had already started to curse in his heart.
As someone proficient in Ancient Traditional Medicine, David
saw that all the cells in Adan‘s body were about to break down when he examined Adan.
Furthermore, this effect was irreversible.
This was even more serious than Mason‘s condition in the past.
Even with his current medical skills, David had no way to prevent
In other words, even if he did not kill Adan, Adan would have died due to the breakdown of the cells in his body before long.
This was the aftermath of taking that crimson potion.
The function of the crimson potion should be to stimulate the cells of the consumer, allowing them to release powerful energy over a short period.
This would then increase the combat power of the consumer. This was equivalent to fighting with the consumer‘s life.
David was depressed.
He wanted badly to slap himself.
‘Why bother with Adan?
‘If I held on a little longer, Adan would have died without me doing anything.
‘Doesn‘t this mean that I suffered the f*cking injuries to my body in vain?‘
David cursed inwardly.
He originally planned to get some of that potion to try in the
future if he had the chance.
However, from what he could see now, he decided to forget it as he would exchange his life for combat power.
David did not want himself nor the people around him to use it.
“It‘s good that you‘re fine. By the way, David, the young man and woman from the Tuffin family fled in secret. If we let them leave, will they continue to bring more people to Earth?” Mason asked.
“Don‘t worry, I’ll go and capture them later. How dare they invade Earth? Of course, I won‘t let them flee so easily,” David replied.
“David, but what about your injuries?” Selena said in worry.
“Don‘t worry, I’m fine.”
After David said that, he disappeared from in front of everyone and started heading toward the direction lone and Nine escaped
• in.
He had hidden a backup plan for himself.
He had planted a mind mark on Nine.
He could stop them if he followed them using the mark.
Mason and the rest waited without moving from their current spots.
Soon, David came back with the unconscious youngsters in each hand. It was Nine and lone, who had fled just now.
They were miles apart from David in their current realm, so how
could they escape from David?
“Let‘s go. We‘ll interrogate them after we bring them back.”
After David said that, he tossed the people in his hands to Mason.
Then, he returned to Earth in advance with Selena while the others followed suit.
I’m A Quadrillionaire chapter 959
When David killed Adan, the alarm blared again in the ancestral home of the Tuffin family in Planet Tuffin in the heart of the
Stella Civilization Galaxy.
“S–S–Sir! Something bad has happened” A clansman who looked after the life plaque of the Tuffin family‘s direct descendants stammered as he reported to the manager of the Tuffin family.
“Why are you panicking like that? Spit it out!”
“L–L–Lord Adan is dead!”
“What? Say that again! W–W–Who is dead?” The manager immediately stood up and said in shock.
“Lord Adan Tuffin is dead! His life plaque broke just now.”
“Quick… Quick… Report this to Lord Orson now!”
“Yes!”
Orson was receiving a distinguished guest at this time. The guest was Cadmus Fernsby, the associate dean of the Novenary Institution in the Milky Way Battle Institution.
The Milky Way Battle Institution was an elite college under the Milky Way Empire.
It was specially designed to transport talents to the empire.
It was divided into nine institutions in total.
The nine institutions operated independently and competed with
each other at the same time.
Pavan was the chief of the Novenary Institution.
Although he had not returned to the Novenary Institution for many years because he was looking for an indigenous living planet outside, and he might not be the strongest entity in the Novenary Institution, he was still officially recognized as the chief.
This once–in–a–century battle among the nine institutions was soon to be held.
As chief of the Novenary Institution, Pavan had to come back to participate.
In reality, Pavan had not been in the Novenary Institution for many years, and many powerful elites had emerged in the institution.
Many people wanted to challenge Pavan for his position but could not since Pavan was not around.
They could only wait for the battle among the nine institutions to challenge Pavan and seize the position of chief when the latter returned.
Since the battle between the nine institutions was approaching and the Novenary Institution could not contact Pavan, they could only come to the Tuffin family to inquire about Pavan‘s whereabouts.
They wanted the Tuffin family to bring Pavan back.
The Novenary Institution was unaware of Pavan‘s death, showing how high the Tuffin family‘s level of confidentiality was.
“Lord Orson, you should know why I‘m here this time. Pav has been away from the Novenary Institution for nearly 20 years. As the chief, he has to come back to participate in the battle among the nine institutions. Otherwise, we‘ll strip him of his position as chief and kick him out of the Novenary Institution,” Cadmus said to Orson.
Although the Tuffin family was one of the eight prominent families of the Milky Way Empire, the Novenary Institution was a subordinate institution of the Milky Way Empire.
One was a family, while the other one was an official institution of the Milky Way Empire.
Therefore, the Novenary Institution would not be scared of the Tuffin family.
As the associate dean of the Novenary Institution, Cadmus was not humble at all in his mannerisms despite not being as powerful as Lord Orson of the Tuffin family.
“Mr. Fernsby, you haven‘t heard. Something happened to Pav, so he might not ever return,” Orson said.
Since they had come to this stage, he could only tell the truth.
It was not wise to lie to the Novenary Institution.
No matter how strong the Tuffin family was, they would not dare to go head–on with an official empire institution like the Milky Way Battle Institution.

Everything was progressing smoothly, and no one could stop the Tuffin family from rising again.
“Something happened to Pavan? What do you mean by that?” Cadmus asked curiously.
“Pav‘s life plaque was broken a few days ago. So, he might not ever return anymore,” Orson answered.
“Pavan‘s life plaque was broken? He‘s dead? When?”
“Yes, not long ago.”
“How?”
“We‘re looking into it.”
“Did you have any results?”
“Not for now.”
“If you find anything, please tell the Novenary Institution. At the end of the day, Pavan was still the chief. If he died accidentally while exploring, then it’s fine. However, if he was killed by someone, the Novenary Institution will not spare them,” Cadmus said with a baleful look on his face.

He certainly did not care about Pavan‘s death.
In recent years, many elite students had emerged at the Novenary Institution.
Pavan‘s talent was limited, and it would be difficult for him to retain the chief position without a fortuitous meeting. Despite this, Pavan held onto the position of chief of the Novenary Institution.
Wouldn‘t his death prove that the Novenary Institution was incompetent?
Even the chief died so easily, so how would the Novenary Institution continue to face others?
Although all nine institutions were subordinates belonging to the Milky Way Battle Institution, the competition between them was actually very fierce.
No one wanted to be in a disadvantageous position.
If the other eight institutions knew that the chief of the Novenary Institution died so easily, this fact would inevitably be brought up in the battle between the nine institutions, which would bring shame to the Novenary Institution.
The dean was someone who valued his prestige. If he embarrassed himself in battle, the whole of the Novenary Institution would not enjoy a single day of peace.
If Cadmus knew this, he would have directly stripped Pavan of
the position of chief.
Now, he had to go back and discuss this with the dean.
“Mr. Fernsby, rest assured. As soon as there is news, we will notify the Novenary Institution immediately.”
“That‘s good! But please keep this matter a secret, Lord Orson. After all, Pavan‘s death is not good for you, your family, or the Novenary Institution.”
Orson understood what Cadmus was saying, so he said, “I understand! I understand!”
“Then I won‘t bother you anymore, Lord Orson.”
Cadmus was about to bid farewell after he carried out his purpose.
“Mr. Fernsby, please stay here for a few days so that we can carry out the hospitality befitting of a host,” Orson tried to keep Cadmus.
“No, I won‘t disturb you, Lord Orson. Since the battle among the nine institutions is coming, I have to take care of many things back in the institution. Goodbye!”
Orson took out something silently and put it in Cadmus‘ hand. He said, “Since you‘re busy, then I won‘t force you. After the battle, you must drop by the house for a visit.”
“Of course, of course.”
Cadmus walked out with Orson after he accepted the object.
The two men came to the courtyard before Cadmus lifted his
body and flew into the sky.
A Milky Way Battleship was parked there waiting for him.
After Cadmus entered the ship, the ship drove away.
After sending off Cadmus, Orson walked back to the living room and sighed.
‘The Tuffin family is going downhill indeed.
‘Even the associate dean of the Novenary Institution dares to come and ride roughshod over me.
‘If we were the Allaband family, Cadmus will definitely be humble and not dare to disrespect us in the slightest.
This is the difference in power.
‘We‘re both members of the eight prominent families of the Milky Way Empire, but the Allaband family and the Tuffin family are viewed so differently.
‘If it weren‘t for the Grandmaster still being alive and deterring others, our lives would be even worse. We might have already lost our spot among the eight prominent families.
‘But everything will be fine.
‘As long as Adan and the rest succeed, our family will rise again, and no one will stop us.
‘With Nine‘s talent alongside the talent from the slave mark that he will absorb, he will have unlimited achievements in the future.
‘This is the Tuffin family‘s only chance.‘
While Orson was looking forward to the Tuffin family‘s future glory, his communication device rang.
After he picked it up and listened to it, he was dumbfounded.
