Jacob from the Dark Realm Returns novel Chapter 144

Jacob rejected all the offers.

Some of the items were rare and even Yana was tempted.

Even so, Jacob wasn't impressed with any of them.

No one could exchange with his offensive magical artifact, not even his panaceas.

Gradually, people were less excited about his offers and were getting quiet.

At this moment, they seemed to have a tacit understanding.

Just now, Jacob was admired by all. Suddenly, no one cared about what he had to offer.

Then, the exchange conference continued.

"Jacob, what exactly is on your mind?" As people took their attention away from Jacob, Alan asked in a low voice, "No one here is easy to deal with. Unless you have some plans in mind, I suggest you leave before the conference is over. And I'll go with you...."

Alan looked determined as he said so.

Jacob smiled at him, "Don't worry, I got plans."

Then, Alan said nothing more.

He could feel that Jacob had enough reason to be confident.

However, this made him more worried. Because it proved that what he guessed about Jacob's plan was probably true.

Even a real Divinity Phase cultivator would not dare to do that. Because it would not only offend one person or clan, but would offend all.

Since Jacob already made up his mind, there was no point for him to say more.

Too much was as bad as too little, so it was better to stop at this point.

The conference lasted for several hours.

All people took turns to show their items and made their requirements for mutual exchanges.

Those who looked for panaceas and couldn't get any from Jacob, exchanged more or less with the Pharmacy Pavilion.

However, the total amount from the exchanges didn't meet the expectation of the Pharmacy Pavilion.

Brennen reached Yana telepathically, "Yana, our panaceas were always snapped up in every exchange conference before. We never had enough to offer them. But today, for the first time, we have many left."

Yana glanced at Brennen and said, "It looks like people are more interested in Jacob's offers."

Brennen grinned, "Too bad for him, what he has will soon belong to the Pharmacy Pavilion. Not only the alchemy furnace, but also his top-grade panaceas and formulas."

Yana nodded and her ethereal temperament was more obvious.

But somehow, she felt something was not right.

And knowing that the elder of Divinity Phase would be at the Pharmacy Pavilion, she stopped worrying.

In addition to exchanges of miraculous medicines and treasures, there were also exchanges of experiences in martial arts cultivation.

Although they would not share all their experiences, they could learn from one another.

Everyone still enjoyed the exchanges.

From past experiences, the exchange of martial arts insights often lasted until very late.

But this time, the discussions didn't go deep and it was over very quickly.

The reason was simple.

Jacob was not interested in such entry-level exchanges.

So, he was about to leave.

But everyone's attention was on him.

Once he left, no one felt like to stay.

People started to leave.

Especially Lance, without any excuse, he followed Jacob.

"Well, I am about to pay a visit to you and collect things your family owe me, but you come to me first."

Jacob sneered when he saw Lance follow him out with a murderous look.

"Whatever you want to collect is your business. But you forced Robby to sign the Soul Contract, I need you to remove it from him. It's better you come with me now, or I will make you to do so."

He didn't like Robby at all.

All he cared is martial arts.

He did this only because Robby was his younger brother.

"Don't worry, I will pay a visit to your family." After all, your family owes me a lot of good stuff." Jacob smiled and said.

"But I guess there weren't enough things on the IOU signed from last time. Robby isn't as important as you are. Maybe I should sign another one with you and to get more stuff from your family!"

After this exchange conference, Jacob felt that he had underestimated the power of the secluded families.

It was not comparable between the noble families in the secular world and these secluded families with hundreds or even thousands of years of heritages.

"You're arrogant!"

Lance looked at Jacob excitedly as if he was looking at his prey.

Jacob sneered, "I have my reasons to be arrogant. I can kill you easily today!"

Now, many people followed them out and they sneered at Jacob after hearing their conversation.

This lad from the secular world was equipped with treasures but he was also an idiot.

He didn't show any respect to the secluded families at all.

He also had no idea of how powerful Lance was.

Facing Semi-Divinity Phase, no one was sure to win him.

Not to mention to kill him.

Hearing what he said, Lance wasn't angry at all. Instead, he was more into the fight. He laughed and said, "Very well, let's begin."

Lance punched straight into the air.

Through the wind and clouds.

When Zhen Qi gathered, the surrounding air currents would gather around Lance's fist.

Instantly, a violent aerial force emitted from his fist.

Before he made any moves.

This power already deterred everyone.

It shocked all the cultivators of Semi-Divinity Phase in the families.

Not to mention those who hadn't reached to this level.

"Lance is truly powerful."

Someone said.

They looked at him jealously.

Although they were all descendants from the secluded families, no one could be compared with Lance.

Lena's expression also changed slightly.

After all, she was only at Gasification Phase, which was equivalent to a Grandmaster.

Jacob sneered again, "That was no big deal!"

Then, he did the same.

He clenched his right hand into a fist.

A force of Qi of the Universe began to gather around his fist.

"This is incredible!"

"I've underestimated him."

"Indeed, he is good. But still not as good as Lance."

People said.

But Alan knew about Jacob's true capability. And it was far more than this.

At the Triangle Region, he alone had defeated the mercenary corps and destroyed those modern weapons. Compared to that, what he just did was nothing.

But no one knew that.

Alan knew clearly that Jacob was not weaker than Lance.

So, he wasn't worried at all.

At the same time, someone was also interested in what was going on here. And he remained clam.

That person was Michael from Heavenly Pavilion.

On the Virtuoso Rankings, Jacob was moved up from third to first place.

This reevaluation and change of ranking were done by Heavenly Pavilion after they saw Jacob's performance at the Triangle Region battle.

As a member of Heavenly Pavilion, Michael knew it very well.

They made very high comments over Jacob.

He was absolutely not weaker than Lance.

Therefore, after learned about Jacob's background, Michael kept an eye on him.

But that was all he cared about Jacob.

Even under the investigation of Heavenly Pavilion, there was nothing special about Jacob's background.

But he rose like a star.

And they still hadn't found out the reason for it.

Moreover, things he showed casually at the conference today were very rare and precious. And his offensive magical artifact probably wasn't even made by Heavenly Pavilion.

It was thought-provoking about who he really was and where he really came from.

For those reasons, Michael wouldn't make any moves over him now.

So, he just watched them and enjoyed himself.

Jacob's ability was much more than this.

So, what exactly was he planning?
