Transmigrated as Investment Banker in Cultivation world

"You shouldn\'t have saved me, boy!" Victoria said while sighing.

David frowned; the implications of her words were heavy.

He didn\'t directly speak but looked at the mature woman while raising one of his eyebrows.

The father and daughter pair seemed to be completely oblivious to Victoria\'s words, as if they hadn\'t heard anything.

From time to time, Celia would secretly steal a glance at David\'s figure and would hurriedly turn her head away before she could make eye contact with David.

Of course, with his high perception, David easily noticed her actions, but he pretended to be ignorant and didn\'t pay her attention.

Lucas, who was meditating some distance away, looked at the people sitting in the center of the hall with a peaceful expression on his face.

Inwardly, however, he was shocked beyond belief.

The great Alchemist Theodore! What is he doing here?

Of course, he hadn\'t taken part in the event three months ago, so he didn\'t know about David\'s handiwork, and Zose also hadn\'t told him anything.

First, the Nascent soul cultivator disdained talking to a junior, and secondly, there was no need for Lucas to know anything about it.

Of course, no one in the room cared about Lucas\' thoughts, so he could think whatever he wanted.

"Hey! Boy, what are you thinking about?"

"Hey, are you listening?"

Victoria frowned and sent him a sound transmission again, but her words seemed to fall on deaf ears.

David at this time was looking at the air with a dazed expression on his face.

[Regretfully! You lost one of your clients today. However, the Bank of Eternal Origin can never suffer a loss.

Even if he died, the client will have to pay back somehow; therefore, his soul was captured. You now have the following options; keep in mind that you can only choose one.

1 - Extract Client\'s Crystallization of Life (Dual force, Grade - Uncommon)

2 - Extract Nyka\'s memories from his birth till his death. Continue your saga on m|v-l\'e -NovelBin.net

3 - Any item that client owned in his lifetime.

4 - Do Nothing, let the compound interest do its thing and decide again when the Client dies in his next life.

Please note, as capturing the soul and imprisoning it requires a large amount of mana, you only have eight hours left to make a choice.]

Nyka was someone who David didn\'t recognize; nowadays, he had invested in thousands of people either directly or indirectly. It was understandable that he didn\'t know everyone\'s name.

This time, however, David was tempted to select the third option; he had a feeling that this Nyka guy\'s Crystallization was related to objects manufacturing or something like this.

As soon as he thought about selecting the third option, another window popped up in front of him.

[You can choose any one from the following three items]

[1 - Jade of Asmodeus

2 - Supreme Yang Ginseng

3 - Seven Hells Blade Art]

David didn\'t feel happy after looking at the flashing window; instead, he looked at it suspiciously.

Why was the name of the item so eye-catching and clickable? Was this some sort of conspiracy to delay his Breakthrough to the next realm?

Moreover, what is wrong with you, bank? Can\'t you at least provide an explanation about all the items so that I can make a sound decision?

But in the end, he shook his head; complaining wasn\'t going to solve anything. David hoped in the future the bank might give him an explanation of each item.

After thinking for a moment, he selected the Supreme Yang Ginseng out of the three. As soon as he made his choice, all the windows disappeared, and he was notified by the bank that the ginseng had been placed in his inventory.

"Were you saying something?" David suddenly said. It wasn\'t like his senses were cut off from reality; he had heard Victoria\'s words loud and clear, but it was just that he had more important things to do, so he didn\'t bother responding.

As David didn\'t know the sound transmission techniques, his words were said out loud.

Alchemist Theodore, who was looking at one of the rooms, was surprised by the words, not understanding what this guy was talking about.

After shaking his head, he once again focused on the strong alchemical scent being wafted out from one of the rooms.

Someone was refining pills inside the room, and judging from the scent, it was definitely a high-grade pill.

This left Alchemist Theodore puzzled; why wasn\'t he aware of such an alchemist?

Claire, who was hiding her face from David\'s gaze, noticed her father\'s puzzled expression and asked, "Father, what are you thinking about?"

Hearing his daughter\'s voice, and moreover, it wasn\'t that big of a deal, so he pointed his fingers towards Sebastian\'s room and explained, "Someone is refining a pill in that room. I wonder who it is?"

David also heard their conversation and said with a smile, "Oh! You are talking about Sebastian."

"You can meet him when he is done with his thing."

Hearing David\'s words, Alchemist Theodore nodded in understanding.

After this short incident, David continued his conversation with Victoria.

Who remembered David didn\'t know sound transmission technique.

"Just speak, I have isolated the space around you; no one will be able to hear anything." Victoria sighed and said, her beautiful pure eyes filled with annoyance.

David, on the other hand, looked at her suspiciously. There were only her family members present here; was there really a need for such a thing?

Victoria seemed to have guessed David\'s internal thoughts and coldly snorted, "Boy, you seem to have underestimated the power of immortal cultivators; the cause and effect of knowing such existence is too great for them."

Really? Then why are you dragging me into this mess? David rolled his eyes and couldn\'t stop himself from complaining in his heart.

Suddenly, she seemed to have realized that he was the one who saved her, and in the next moment, Victoria\'s gaze softened, and she continued.

"You should better prepare yourself. Now that the seal has been forcefully lifted, the Green Heaven saint might have already been looking for you."

David abruptly spoke and interrupted her, "What does the Green Heaven saint have to do with this? Isn\'t he already dead?"

Even though he asked this question, he already understood something. After all, he wasn\'t stupid; Victoria was most probably sealed by the Green Heaven saint, and why would he do that? David had no idea.

"Nah, he is alive and well." Victoria said with a complicated smile on her face.

Seeing her reaction, David realized things weren\'t as simple as he had earlier thought.

So he didn\'t interrupt her and let her continue, and it wasn\'t like he could make her shut up even if he wanted to.

She continuously spoke for half an hour before finally stopping.

"Even though the distance is extremely large, he will be here at least in a hundred years, and given his personality, he will not let you live a peaceful life."

Victoria had a guilty smile on her face; she felt bad for the boy who had tried to help her, but she couldn\'t do anything about it.

She wasn\'t worried about herself; given their past relationship, he wouldn\'t do anything to her. At most, the Green Heaven saint would seal her again in the ice coffin.

David was immediately relieved after hearing that he still had hundreds of years to spare, and he really wasn\'t worried nor did he regret his decision.

So what if Green Heaven Saint was after him? A hundred years was a long period of time; who knew what might happen in these years?

Maybe the Green Heaven saint should be worried about his little life.

At that thought, David\'s eyes flashed with coldness.

Seeing David\'s reaction, Victoria was surprised. She thought the young man would be worried sick after hearing about such terrible news, but he looked completely unafraid.

While David was thinking, his gaze landed on Alchemist Theodore, and his eyes turned a little strange.

Did this guy know the woman he worried about was an ex-lover of the Green Heaven saint?

Although Victoria hadn\'t explicitly stated it, from her words, he could deduce this much.

What a mess!

David felt as if he had become part of some cheap drama.

Time continued to pass.

"It would be better if you just leave this world; moreover, staying in this world is pointless as you will never be able to break the shackles of the mortal realm." Out of nowhere, Victoria dropped another bomb.

David looked at her with a perplexed gaze and didn\'t know what to say.

Seeing his curious eyes, Victoria sighed and started to speak once more.

"So when the Green Heaven saint left, he took the world core with him." David repeated Victoria\'s words with narrowed eyes.

Although he was still ignorant, he knew the importance of the World core.

Without it, no one would be able to become a saint in this world, and Mana density would also continue to fall.

"Yeah, he was afraid that someone would break through to the saint realm again once he left."
