Chapter 1708: Chapter 1708

Archimedes never thought a kid would reject him when he voluntarily went up to him to be friendly.

As the first-in-line heir of the Lightfoot family, Archimedes had never been insulted like this before.

So many people were watching as well!

If word got out, how would he show his face?

Everyone on the 9th floor was shocked by what David said.

Even though they did not know who Archimedes was, they knew he was not simple since he had a late Sovereign Ranker as his protector.

‘How dare that kid do that?

‘Is he an idiot?’

Before Archimedes could register what was going on, David had grabbed his things to leave.

Then, Archimedes reached out to stop David.

“Kid, you’re not conscientious at all. I am older than you, so I am your senior. Is this how you treat your senior?” Archimedes said with a gloomy face.”

“Bro, I am busy. There are so many people here. Can’t you get them to drink with you?” David answered helplessly.

He still had no idea that the person in front of him was the first-in-line heir of the Lightfoot family, and that he was here to investigate Cornelius’ death.

If David knew, he would not waste his time spewing nonsense with him.

“I want you to drink with me,” Archimedes insisted.

“I am busy!”

“Delay it!”

“No! This matter is crucial to me, so I have to leave now.”

“You can leave, but you have to leave the wine jar in your arms here. I’ll then go drink with others and let you leave.” After Archimedes said that, he stared at the wine jar in David’s arms.

He did not know what was inside.

However, since David was bringing it everywhere he went and it looked so old, Archimedes figured it must be some good stuff.

At the same time, he wanted to test David’s reactions.

If David was willing to give it to him, then he would be wrong.

If David was unwilling to give it to him, then it might be some good stuff.

When David heard that, he understood what was going on.

‘He’s interested in my Exquisite Wine of Hundred Flowers and Fruits.

‘This guy knows what’s what.

‘He knows I have good stuff in here.’

If David did not need to give Celia and the others this wine to help them get more chances to enter Eternal Realm, he would not mind sharing it.

He already had 30 thousand lavish points anyway, so he did not care about other things. However, he needed the wine, so no matter who asked for it, he would not give it to them. “My master gave me this wine, so I can’t give it to you,” David rejected without hesitation. “Oh? May I know who’s your master?

Can you tell us? Maybe he’s an old friend of the Lightfoot family,” Archimedes said nonchalantly.

Of course, he did not think David’s master was an old friend of his family.

Instead, he was indirectly trying to expose his own identity.

The Lightfoot family’s status was at the top of the ranks in the Central Sacred Continent.

When everyone heard of that name, they were startled.

Indeed, when Archimedes said that, everyone’s jaw dropped.

Sounds of discussions filled the room immediately.

“He’s from the Lightfoot family, so it’s no wonder he looks so outstanding. The Lightfoot family’s reputation is fully justified indeed.”

“Yeah! This one should be Master Archimedes, the first-in-line heir of the family.”

“The Lightfoot family is the true controller of Splendor, one of the top five trading companies in the Central Sacred Continent. As the first-in-line heir of the family, Master Archimedes is indeed handsome and loaded not just in name.”

“Right? But I heard something happened to the family recently, have you heard?”

“I know some of it. Gossip says that Cornelius, the second-in-line heir of the family, died mysteriously.

Everyone at the West End is so anxious. If they can’t find the murderer soon, the repercussions might spread all over the Central Sacred Continent.”

“It’s not that serious, is it?”

“Not that serious? Don’t underestimate the Lightfoot family’s strength!”
