《Eternal Thief 》Chapter 128: Fear of the Unknown!

Javier stated, "How about giving me all ten places at once for one million low Qi stones!"
"Ssss…."
Everyone inhales sharply, hearing Javier's domineering words. This guy was just too damn overbearing!
'Which damn switch he just flip to turn into a completely different person!' Jason was indignant.
Aden on stage was also stunned hearing Javier's offer. 'Just who is he?' Sadly, no one can answer that question of his.
Before Aden could react, Javier speak again wearing an arrogant expression, "Trust me Beast Master these idiots can't win against me, because they didn't have the balls to do so. Hehe."
Javier disdainfully looked at those titled families in front rows. Now their faces were as dark as charcoals.
"See that? No one even dares to 'pep'. Trust me, this bunch is even afraid of that brat still wet behind his ears. What can they do to this lord? Heh, cowards." Javier sneered as he shakes his head in disappointment.
Another bout of silent exclaim begun, this guy either has a very grand background or he wasn't afraid of death in the least bit.
As for those titled families, they were boiling with insane anger!
Those hot-blooded youths' eyes were bloodshot. No one has dared to humiliate them in public like this before.
They all wanted to charge and chop that arrogant fool into million pieces, but their elders were holding them tightly.
Just as Javier said, they didn't dare to move a finger before confirming who this arrogant guy was. After all, the unknown is more dangerous and mysterious.
However, one person was not as circumspect as the other nobles.
"You bastard, who are you calling a brat??!" Victor was brutally looking at Javier.

He never has suffered this kind of disgrace in front of so many people and no one was here to control him except Skyler, who was also in a daze because of Javier's overbearing attitude.
But she quickly snapped out of her daze at hearing Victor's furious voice and quickly rebuke him, "Shut up and sit down!"
But Victor didn't back down a bit and keep eyeing Javier with killing intent.
"Boy, you have more balls than those old fossils. I'll give you that much. But just scram to the side when your elders are talking." Javier directly scolded Victor without pulling any punches.
'This guy is a disaster.' Jason's face was as if would cry at any moment.
Victor's eyes turn bloodshot hearing another insult and he was going to attack when he felt his consciousness slip away abruptly.
Skylar had to knock Victor out for his good because she could tell that guy was so carelessly mocking everyone here with no care about Aden's presence. No bluffer can bluff this confidently. He must have someone to rely on.
But her eyes were icy as she looked at Javier. She would never forget this humiliation to her brother.
"Tsk, Tsk, youngsters are fearless," Javier click his tongue with a nostalgic expression on his face as if he was an old ghost.
Everyone wanted to roll their eyes because this guy was doing the opposite of everything he just said and he was a youngster himself.
Aden was truly speechless as well as those three beauties on the stage. This was his first time encounter this kind of situation where he was completely blind.
Aden's view differed greatly from others because only one person can be so overbearing in his eyes and that was… 'Maybe he has someone at an influential position in one of two giants!'

The moment this thought surface, Aden's expression was solemn, and he didn't dare to take risks anymore until he investigates this domineering youth.
Because a person of an organization is only afraid of someone from the organization!
And Aden was the same. He didn't dare to take risks with his sly nature.
Aden was a person who can read people very well, and he even has a special skill that can sense fear because beasts fear other beings and it is the most important thing to control to successfully taming a beast.
That same rule also applies to humans. If a human is telling a lie or bluffing, he would show a vague sign of fear and that was exactly what Aden relies upon to judge the other party.
And this youth is so calm that he didn't even feel a trace of fear from him. After all, he was just a third qi gate realm cultivation. How could he escape Aden a qi river cultivator skill, right?
Aden nearly forgets that he was standing on the stage. The more he thinks the more he sinks in his thoughts, and the further he believes that Javier's background was not to be underestimated.
"Old Man, why are you still not speaking? I don't have all day here." Javier's impatient voice rang again.
This time, he didn't even call him Beast Master and directly call him an old man.
Everyone thought that this youth's gut was higher than the sky!
Aden snapped out of his daze and take another deep glance at the plain-looking youth but still find no trace of fear and only saw his arrogant mug.
"Ahem… Young Master, please forgive my manners." Aden's signature smile has returned as he apologized.
Everyone was dumbfounded, seeing Aden changing his tone and even apologizing to this young man. They had least expected this.
"Sigh… old age indeed." Javier nodded in understanding.
Aden's face twitched, but he didn't retort and said, "Young Master, since you are willing to pay one million for ten sets, then… there are yours!"
Javier grin arrogantly as shot a glance towards the old man who was standing guards and said, "Old Man, come here and take these qi stones or those dogs in the front row might fight with you for them."
That old man was also bewitched but since the Beast Master was treating this youth with such a curtsey, how could he dare to show any disrespect?
As for the dog comment, everyone knows he was referring to those titled families and commoners were holding back their laughter!

NEVER SPLIT THE PARTY: The Adventures of The Creeping Bam (BOOK ONE: The Job)
TAO is a broken world held together with nothing but magic and the will of the gods who protect it and its people. Then thousand years ago THE SUNDERING struck and Tao was almost torn apart by a terrible magical cataclysm which resulted in the planet almost being halted in its journey through the cosmos. It took all the power the gods of Tao could muster to restore its orbit and set it turning again, but in their efforts it was forever changed – its axis was drastically altered, and it now spins in such a way that one face of the world is forever turned from the sun it orbits, leaving half the planet in perpetual darkness. The various humanoid races that survived and now thrive within the habitable parts of THE DAY LANDS have come to live in perpetual fear of what lives beyond THE BORDERLANDS that separate them from whatever dwells within THE NIGHT LANDS, but for ten millennia it has kept its secrets. The land of RUNDAO languishes under the rule of their warlike Northern neighbours, the TEKTEHRAN EMPIRE, while a small, ragtag band of motley adventurers ply their mercenary trade fighting monsters and protecting the common man from the various dangers that haunt the night and prowl the hinterlands on the edges of civilization. THE CREEPING BAM have amassed a modest reputation in their years together, but they’re still just a small-time party of sellswords, thieves, outcasts and mages. They’re also exactly the kind of underdogs the people of Tao doesn’t yet realise are needed to save the world from the encroaching darkness they doesn’t even know is coming … This is a love letter and homage to the high-fantasy worlds of the tabletop RPGs like Dungeons & Dragons, Pathfinder and Warhammer and the sword & sorcery cinema and literature I fell in love with as a kid growing up in the 80s, from Robert E. Howard’s Conan the Barbarian (and the awesome Schwarzenegger movie, STILL my favourite fantasy film EVER), The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit and Ron Howard and George Lucas’ Willow, to the more grown-up and edgy worlds of grimdark masters George RR Martin and (my all-time favourite) Joe Abercrombie, as well as a BIG DOLLOP of Terry Pratchett’s immortal Discworld series. IMPORTANT: This story contains material which some readers may consider to be mature, such as battle violence, some strong language and occasional mild sexual scenes. If this is not your kind of thing, this story is not for you. I am also serializing this story on Tumblr, Wattpad, Quotev and Sweek.

My father scolds me sharply. I flinch at the anger in his voice and quickly retract my hand, inches from the trunk of the tree. "Sorry father, I couldn't help it. The trees are just so beautiful," I whine turning towards him. His face softens slightly and he scoops me up into his muscled arms. I wrap my small arms around his neck and bury my face into his shoulder. He hugs me tightly and carries me away from the forest. "Why can't we go into the forest?" I ask, looking over his shoulder to see the red and gold leaves slowly disappear from view as we climb the hill. "The forest is a dangerous place," he sighs. "How can something so beautiful be so dangerous?" I mutter in confusion. "The danger is in its beauty."**Cover by SodaliteSilver**
