Jacob from the Dark Realm Returns novel Chapter 71

Bang!

There was an oppressive sound in the air.

Then, the crowd saw that Darnell was thrown backward directly.

A string of dark red blood was spilled in the air and it looked like a line of blood.

Then, his entire body smashed on the seat where he was sitting before. The table and chair were all smashed to pieces.

He fell onto the ground and did not move anymore.

Darnell, who had once intimidated the Virtuosos in both South Riverside Province and North Riverside Province, and was now the most powerful person other than a Virtuoso, who was standing at the extreme peak of the Would-be Virtuoso Phase, had his heart burst under this single punch and died on the spot!

This scene caused everyone to be silent.

Cornell, who was standing at a distant place, had his eyes widened upon seeing this. This scene had stimulated him deeply.

Jacob could surprisingly kill Darnell who was the most powerful person other than a Virtuoso, what did this mean? Could it be that Jacob was actually a Virtuoso? A Virtuoso who was younger than Boyce in the capital city?

Whether Jacob was a Virtuoso or not, at this moment, he only had one thought. An extremely powerful person was going to affect the situation of Riverside City.

The rulers of North Riverside Province and South Riverside Province were going to change.

Even the entire martial arts world in China was going to have a change.

And at this moment, Bancroft Shaw, who was still sitting on the seat, was flabbergasted and stunned.

Dar…Darnell was surprisingly… defeated?

With Darnell’s help, he thought that everything was absolutely fool proof. And that was why he was sitting there to wait for the result. Since Darnell wanted to take away all the Reinforcing Panacea, Bancroft thought that he could just let Darnell fight alone. Bancroft could only gain some psychological comfort by doing this.

But, in the blink of an eye, Darnell died next to him!

At this moment, Bancroft was completely dumbfounded.

Darnell was the most powerful person other than a Virtuoso who could even make him, a Virtuoso-to-be feared of. Darnell was also once a Virtuoso-to-be but he was easily killed by a young man with one punch?

After realizing this, Bancroft, who was horrified, turned over and fled.

He used Sliding Steps, a skill that was trained by him to an extremely high level.

Being a Virtuoso-to-be, Bancroft was able to appear in the place that was ten meters away within seconds after doing it.

He even had no time to bother his son, Dempsey.

Although he loved his son very much whom he got despite being old, the most important thing was that he, himself must be alive.

As long as he was still alive, he could still find another woman to give birth to a son for him.

“Have you asked about my opinion before you leave?”

At this time, a voice sounded beside Bancroft’s ears out of the blue.

Then he found that a figure suddenly appeared in front of him.

The figure was above him and the figure stretched his leg to give a kick.

He wanted to dodge it but even with his strength as a Virtuoso-to-be, he failed.

The kick directly hit his shoulder.

At once, his entire bones of the left shoulder were all shattered.

His entire body was also kicked and thrown backward.

Exactly like what had happened to Darnell just now, his body also directly smashed on the seat he had been sitting on. The table and chair were smashed to pieces.

“Puff!”

Bancroft directly spat out a mouthful of blood.

Under that huge force, he felt as if his internal organs had been displaced.

Not knowing whether it was a coincidence, after he fell on the ground, it was just nice that he was facing Darnell who was next to him.

At this moment, Darnell was staring at him with eyes widened in anger as if Darnell died unwillingly with a grievance and resentment.

Bancroft shivered instantly.

He then realized that even Darnell also could not escape and was killed with a single punch.

Let alone himself.

Bancroft did not bother with his pain and injuries. He moved his body up immediately, knelt on the ground and continuously kowtowed, “Young man, I’m sorry, I fail to recognize your eminence…”

Jacob simply no longer paid attention to him.

It was none of his business whether Bancroft was dead or alive.

If it was not because Dempsey wanted to obtain the extremely high-quality Reinforcing Panacea that Jacob gave to the Shaw family, Jacob would never give advice to Bernice before.

And because Cornell did not betray him after that, he decided to help the Shaw family.

There was totally no grudge between him and Bancroft.

“This is the family matter of you guys. You guys handle it yourselves!”

Jacob looked at Cornell as he said.

Cornell only then took a deep breath and walked over.

At this moment, he looked at Jacob with a very complicated expression.

Envy, glad, delight, gratitude…

“If Mr. Reyes has any requests in the future, everyone in the Shaw family will do their best!”

Cornell first clasped his fists and showed it to Jacob while speaking, then he walked towards Bancroft.

As for how Cornell would punish Bancroft, it had nothing to do with Jacob.

“Beat him to death.”

“How dare he blasphemes Bernice, let him die!”

At once, many younger members of the Shaw family rushed towards Dempsey who was beside Bancroft and totally did not dare to move.

Instantaneously, Dempsey was submerged in the group of people.

This time, he did not dare to resist at all.

He no longer had the arrogance he had before, so miserable!

Many young members of the Shaw family were also looking at Jacob with full admiration as if they were looking at their idols.

But no one dared to approach him.

After all, no one knew how Jacob’s personality was.

However, there was an exception as a beautiful figure approached him.

Jacob looked at the beautiful figure in front of him. Her loose white outfit could not hide her alluring body shape.

Unlike the beauty of Kaley who was noble and cold and Lena’s lazy and feminine beauty, the figure’s body portrayed a valiant and heroic beauty that was soft with virility simultaneously and full of heroism.

“Mr…Mr. Reyes, was it you who gave me advice when I was on stage just now?”

Bernice was half a head shorter than Jacob. At this time, she slightly raised her head, looked at Jacob and spoke softly.

Jacob nodded indifferently.

Seeing Jacob nod, Bernice blushed. As expected, her thought was true.

She previously thought that it was her grandfather, Cornell, who transmitted his voice to give her advice. But after Jacob appeared, she started to suspect that it was not her grandfather who gave her advice, but Jacob.

“Thank you!”

Bernice gave her most sincere thanks.

Without Jacob, she did not know how she would have been humiliated by Dempsey.

Jacob nodded and accepted it.

Seeing that Jacob was not courteous at all, Bernice was slightly stunned. But then she understood that Jacob, a person who had the level like a Virtuoso, was not close to her. If he treated her courteously, it would be strange.

“Mr. Reyes, Bernice had a presumptuous request, I hope that I can worship Mr. Reyes as my master!”

After a slight hesitation, Bernice suddenly said.

After these words were uttered, the elders of the Shaw family who had come over to serve and entertain Jacob nicely, froze.

But then, they looked at Jacob expectantly.

None of the members of the Shaw family had displeasure upon seeing Bernice was going to worship someone else as a master. Instead, they praised Bernice inwardly.

This was because Jacob was very likely having a level like a Virtuoso. If this was true, being a person who could achieve the Virtuoso phase in twenty-plus years old, he would probably be the youngest Virtuoso in the past hundred years, surpassing the previous record made by Boyce of the Goldsmith family in the capital city.

No wonder he could casually give three extremely high-quality Reinforcing Panacea to the Shaw family.

If Bernice could get such a person’s guidance, her martial arts were bound to advance swiftly and vigorously. If the member of the Shaw family could have a master-prentice relationship with such a person, then the Shaw family would certainly leap to become the top family in Riverside City. And it could even become the top family in the entire North Riverside Province.

Hearing this, Jacob frowned slightly.

Bernice’s talent was indeed not bad. But, it was merely not bad.

To worship him as a master and become his prentice, she was still far from the qualification needed.

All his prentices were the greatest geniuses in the universe.

Up to now, the people he met on Earth who were eligible to become his prentice, were only one and a half.

Olivia, who had an ethereal body, was counted as one.

Lena, who had a physique with the purest Kidney-Yin, was considered half.

Jacob shook his head, speaking, “I don’t get prentice for myself!”

This time, Jacob said quite euphemistically as he did not directly say that Bernice was not qualified. He did not want to discourage her spirit towards martial arts.

Bernice’s eyes instantly darkened!

Tom and the others were also all sighing in their minds.

“However, regarding your martial arts cultivation, I can guide you a little.”

Jacob said again.

After all, he had used the territory of the Shaw village and he felt that the members of the Shaw family were also not bad.

Being the Emperor of the Dark Realm, he would definitely seek revenge even if it was just a small matter. He was always cruel to the enemy but was also very friendly to his alliance.

Bernice’s eyes lit up again. Her face was full of smiles, “Thank you, Mr. Reyes!”

After that, Jacob gave some advice to Bernice for her martial arts cultivation. This immediately let Bernice learn a lot.

At the side, even Tom and the others who already reached the Masterstroke Phase of the Martial Art a long time ago were also apparently thinking of something.

After leaving from the pugilistic centre, Jacob did not go to the place chosen by him but was arranged by the Shaw family to stay in the best guest room of the Shaw family.

The place chosen by Jacob was previously deserted. The Shaw family was repairing it with all its might.

It would be finished and ready tomorrow.

…

…

At the midnight, the moon looked bright. At this time, Jacob was cultivating in his room.

After achieving the Gasification Phase, it would not be a problem for Jacob even if he did not sleep for more than ten days and half a month.

As the Shaw village contained the second most intense spiritual power in Riverside City, the effect of cultivation there was twice as good as other places despite having half effort put in.

Just when Jacob was frantically absorbing the spiritual power and using Chaos Pearl to transform it into the power of chaos, a figure appeared outside the door of his room.

Jacob opened his eyes and a brilliant light flashed in his eyes.

“Come in!”

Jacob spoke.

At this time, the figure outside the door was stunned. Then, the figure opened the door and walked in.

Under the illumination of the moonlight, the bewitching and elegant figure seemed to be cloaked in a layer of silver.

At this moment, Bernice had just taken a shower and had changed his outfit she wore during the day into a long snow-white dress. Under the moonlight, she paced elegantly towards Jacob.

“What’s the matter?”

Jacob asked again.

“I’m here to find master to ask for advice on martial arts, of course!”

Bernice bit her red lips lightly and said.

There was a softness on her heroic and ravishing face.

Jacob frowned slightly, “First, I’m not your master. Second, you can come and ask for advice during the day!”

Bernice would not care that much.

She had thought about it for a long time before she made up her mind to find Jacob.

During the day, although Jacob just casually gave her some advice, she could feel that her strength had obviously increased.

She must worship Jacob as her master.

As Bernice had been practising Shaws' Mental Cultivation Techniques during her process of growing up, coupled with the reason that the Shaws’ Boxing was a virile skill, her character was also gentle with virility. She was bound to do the matter she was determined to do.

“Whether you acknowledge me or not, you’ve given advice for my martial arts. I already consider you as my master.” Bernice walked up to Jacob and stood still, showing her alluring body shape and looking at Jacob, “As long as you’re willing to let me become your prentice, you can ask me to do anything.”

“Anything?” Jacob looked at her with interest.

At the midnight, she had just taken a shower and her hair was lying on her shoulders. She was dressed in a long snow-white dress and a faint fragrance on her body was so attractive that someone would intend to do something bad to her!

Bernice nodded and suddenly made a very bold move. She reached out her pair of snow-white arms and wrapped Jacob’s shoulders. She was blushing and her breaths were a little rapid. She let out a fragrant breath and said with determination, “Anything!”

Jacob felt that the snow-white arms on his shoulders were trembling. His furrowed brows slightly relaxed.

He curled into a strange smile, “Since you say so, then don’t blame me…”

At the same time, Jacob stretched out a hand to fondle the snow-white hand on his shoulder.

After feeling Jacob’s warm palm, Bernice’s hand that was already quivering reacted even more violently.

Her entire body was quivering slightly and her heart had leapt to her throat.

After holding on for two seconds, Bernice suddenly withdrew her hands.

She hurriedly took two steps backward and left the distance where Jacob’s hand could touch.

She could not continue to act anymore. She really could not act like a delicate beauty who seduced others. Not to mention, she did not expect that Jacob would really fondle her despite being a powerful person who was like a Virtuoso.

Then, Bernice looked at Jacob with a face full of begging, “Mr. Reyes, I’m wrong, just acknowledge me as your prentice, please?”
