Chapter 118: Charity is hard these days

"Don't be nervous. After all, this is for you only," David said, pointing at the shining mountain, his eyes filled with Mysteriousness.

"This is for me?" one of the girls asked in an unsure tone, pointing at herself while looking at David's face seriously.

Seeing her reaction, David suddenly had an idea. In the next moment, his face turned cold, and he spoke in a plain voice.

"Not for you, because you are going to die."

David's face was as emotionless as a rock when he said those words.

Hearing them, the girl's pupils shook violently, and her face changed color.

"No, you cannot do this to me!" she shouted in a shrill voice, hurriedly backing away.

Seeing the girl's reaction, David wanted to laugh loudly. He tried his best to maintain a poker face, but in the end, he couldn't stop himself.

"Hahahaha… Look at your reaction, little girl."

In the next moment, he walked up to the girl, grabbed her chin, and looked deeply into her eyes.

The girl's body shuddered like a fearful rabbit encountering a big, bad wolf.

David suddenly let go of her, patted her head lightly, and said, "I was just kidding. Of course, these things are for all of you."

"Honestly divide the pile among yourselves equally."

However, even after his confirmation, the five cultivators were still shocked and confused, not knowing how to proceed.

After all, they couldn't tell if David was really telling the truth or was just kidding.

Seeing that none of them were moving forward, David had no choice but to be a little forceful.

"Man, even doing charity is hard these days," David thought and sighed.

The five of them finally moved after witnessing David's forceful attitude.

It was better not to test the kind-looking guy's patience.

Slowly, the five of them moved forward and divided the shiny mountain among themselves.

In the next moment, all the items lying on the ground slowly disappeared.

It was at this time that David felt five more threads forming and connecting him to these individuals.

After some time, everyone left, leaving David alone.

David prayed for these five individuals, wishing the Heavens would give them extremely short lives.

The sun had started its journey downward, filling the sky with shades of orange.

Some distance away, the Origin Guard, clad in full body armor, stood loyally waiting for David's orders.

After a while, David turned his head and prepared to move.

However, before he could do that, a gentle wind suddenly blew, causing David's long coat to flutter.

The gigantic trees, which had stood still all this time, suddenly started to shake with greater intensity than before.

"Could it be?" David thought, a joyful expression appearing on his face.

He hadn't forgotten why he was here in the first place.

However, that damned girl had taken all the fruits.

In the next moment, the same aroma from before filled the air uncontrollably like a wave.

Several heart-shaped fruits appeared in midair and rapidly started falling toward the ground.

Blink!

This time, David reacted swiftly, moving like lightning.

He instantly grabbed the tens of fruits and put them in his storage.

Roar!

Suddenly, a bestial roar, filled with brutality, reverberated through the surroundings.

A Thunder Leopard, as big as a small house, suddenly attacked David.

It seemed to have been waiting for the perfect moment and struck when the Clear Heart fruit appeared.

David was already prepared to face his enemy. With the help of the Web of Mindfulness, he was already aware of the Leopard's presence.

In the next moment, his body was suddenly covered in purple lightning from head to toe.

The standstill Origin Guard also took action. In blink of an eye, his hulking body appeared in midair beside David and the Thunder Leopard.

Before David could even take action, the Origin Guard attacked.

A sword slash, filled with pure mana, appeared on top of the Leopard's head.

Rrrr! The Leopard squealed in pain, and in the next moment, its huge head fell to the ground, followed by a shower of blood that painted the ground red.

The Origin Guard had killed the Thunder Leopard with one attack.

David didn't feel happy after the Leopard's death but cautiously scanned the surroundings with the help of the Web of Mindfulness.

After making sure there was no one around, he breathed a sigh of relief and sold the Leopard's body to the bank for a handsome sum of money.

David didn't dare to stay in this place any longer and started to move along with the Origin Guard in search of a safe place.

He didn't have to move for long. After flying for barely five minutes, they found a secluded cave.

However, it seemed to be already occupied by someone.

For David, this was not an issue.

In the next moment, he casually walked inside the cave and zapped the Titanic Bull living in it.

After making sure that the cave was safe, David ordered the Origin Guard to keep an eye on the entrance.

While the Origin Guard was keeping watch, David sat down cross-legged and took out a Clear Heart fruit from his storage ring.

The fruit instantly lit up the dark cave with its bright light.

David felt as if he was holding a piece of iron in his hand.

"So before using it, we have to peel its skin first," David thought, his eyes flashing as he remembered the instructions from the forum.

Slowly, David willed the mana to move out of his body, and a thin layer of gray-colored mana slowly emerged from his fingertips.

The gray mana slowly wiggled and turned into the shape of a small knife. With the help of the knife, David slowly started to rub the fruit.

Metallic powder slowly fell to the ground like dust.

In a few minutes, what was left in David's hands was a small, shiny green marble that looked like jelly.

This was the real Clear Heart fruit.

If David was sell this marble on Green Heaven Web, it could easily be sold for a good amount of spirit stones.
