Suddenly, he felt a rush of energy coming from his head and diffusing through his body.
The attraction he felt from the girl's voice disappeared. Finally understanding what had happened, David's eyes grew cold.
The girl had tried to manipulate him. Such actions were unforgivable.
"Oh really, why do you think I need your service?"
David spoke in a cold voice and looked around him. He was able to find a couple in similar situations to his own.
David might not know it, but the girl who approached him was a guide who helped the newcors adjust to this new environnt.
In fact, it was a pretty common sight in the upper city.
The blonde-haired girl looked at David with a shocked expression on her face. Her na was Emilia, and this wasn't her first ti when she used her Crystallisation of Life on mortals who had just arrived in the upper city to make a killing.
There has never been anyone below foundation building Realm; who had been able to resist her, let's not even talk about mortals. Therefore, her shock was genuine.
David decided to look at her Crystallisation of Life because he was also curious about it. In case he encountered sothing similar he wanted to have so degree of counterasures.
[Request for status report.]
[Target- Emilia Blackthorn]
[Cost- 10,000 spirit stones]
[Yes/No]
"Blackthorn?"
"10,000 spirit stones for a status report."
David yelled in his head. Half of the hostility that he felt disappeared as if it never existed.
Ahem!
He cleared his throat and took one good look at the girl in front of him.
"O~of course, i would be grateful for your help"
David smiled charmingly and politely said. At the sa ti, he also paid 10,000 spirit stones for the report.
[Na- Emilia Blackthorn

David was left speechless by the information in front of him.
"Hello! Sir, are you okay?"
Emilia worriedly looked at David's face and asked with concern. Her eyebrows were scrunched up together in confusion.
However, David didn't care about her words, he was more concerned with the information that he was seeing.
"AAA investnt grade."
"Half-Step Foundation Building."
David had recently co to know that the next realm after body Refining was Foundation Building. She was the strongest cultivator that he had t in his life.
But David didn't understand one thing why she was doing such odd jobs.
Moreover, she had the best investnt grade that he had seen. He had to invest in her at all costs.
His Crystallisation of Life wasn't just about giving loans to people, but it also had an important function.
If he sohow helped a cultivator or for that matter invested so amount of capital. He was going to receive sothing back in return when that cultivator breakthrough.
Let's take Emilia as an example: if David invested his capital in her or helped her. His cultivation was going to increase, every ti she made a breakthrough.
David's eyes started to shine. He forgot about her earlier behavior, to him she was just like a penny stock that was ready to boom given her potential.
David decided to yolo all his capital on her.
"Ahem! I am fine. I was just montarily confused due to the change in environnt."
David took a deep breath and calmly spoke while trying to hold his excitent back.
"I understand."
Emilia's eyes suddenly shone with understanding; she seems to have understood sothing and nodded.
"I see, your body isn't familiar with mana."
"Concentration of mana in the upper city is higher compared to lower city; so difficulty in adjusting is to be expected."
Hearing her words the doubts that David had in his head were also cleared.
"Anyways, can you please help ? I want to join the North River."
"Also can you help familiarize with the general situation of the upper city."
Emilia nodded at his words but kept silent as if waiting for sothing.
David took the cue and hurriedly brought a bag filled with spirit stones and threw it in her direction.
Emilia caught the bag and smiled. David also felt a thin connection forming between Emilia and himself.
"Oh! So you want to join the North River Sect, an excellent choice."
"Let us talk while we walk towards the office of the sect."
Emilia started to walk after finishing her sentence. He also followed behind her, Emilia's pace was neither too fast nor slow, so David was able to comfortably keep up with her.
David looked at the buildings and alleys and found many differences between the architecture design of the two cities.
The general design was the sa, however compared to the lower city, the walls of the upper city seed to have been carved with unknown symbols.
David wanted to ask her about these symbols but before he could even open his mouth Emilia pointed at the pouch filled with spirit stones and demanded more.
David was more than happy to give all his life-saving but he had to pretend with a frowning expression he handed her more spirit stones.
She took the spirit stones from him in a flash and happily started to explain.
"Well, these are the arrays carved by a formation master to increase the concentration of mana…"
Emilia spoke at great length about the array with a serious expression on her face.
Just like this, whenever David encountered sothing new he would look at Emilia and give her more spirit stones.
And soon it had reached to the point where even Emilia was looking at David strangely, after all David was too eager to give her money.
In half an hour she had received roughly 10,000 spirit stones from this black haired youth beside her.
She then suddenly rembered a quote from a book that she had read recently.
"Handso people were generally dumb."
When they finally reach
ed their destination, Emilia had only one question in her mind.
"He can't be the illegitimate son of City Lord, right?"
