Chapter 726: The Store Upgrading Quest(8)

“I chose your family since I have my own reasons,” Aakesh honestly answered Tapi.

Aakesh didn’t tell Tapi about the quest and its restrictions since there was no point in it except for wasting time. Since the mission only had a deadline of twenty-four hours, the last thing Aakesh would do was waste time.

Tapi couldn’t help but grit her teeth in frustration after hearing Aakesh. All the goodwill she had for Aakesh in her heart went down the drain despite Aakesh talking to her in Gahaka, and at the same time, the title, Myrioglot, was also active.

“For no reason, you come here and ask us to bet our business based on someone else’s superior products,” Tapi grittily spoke.

Aakesh deactivated the title after sensing that there was no further point in it. His efforts to complete the quest by being optimistic were a failure.

The next moment, his face turned expressionless as it always stayed. The sudden aura change around Aakesh baffled the guards, while Tapi got scared for her life.

The Guhyakas already had a short lifespan of only some decades, so they feared death more than others. If not for them at least having a high fertility rate, the Guhyakas would have gone extinct in no time.

The guards hidden in the room knew they couldn’t stay hidden anymore after seeing the sudden expression change on Tapi’s face, the person they got hired to protect.

“Tapi, the world of business is as cruel as fighting, if not more than that,” Aakesh expressionlessly told Tapi.

“Unpredictability is rare in battles, but unpredictability is inevitable in business,” Aakesh further added.

“Aakesh, she doesn’t look like she would go with it,” Lily’s voice rang in Aakesh’s head. She could see the fear and anger Tapi had for Aakesh in Tapi’s eyes.

The Guhyakas could neither attack others nor defend due to their inability to learn offensive and defensive skills, so they were only left with their business excellence. How could Tapi not hate Aakesh for what he thought? The trade was the only thing the Guhyakas had. Having all those disadvantages of their race, what point would they even have in existing if they gave up on this?

“I know,” Aakesh’s voice rang in Lily’s head.

The quest stated that the choice to withdraw from the business should be out of the family’s own volition and not by a threat from Aakesh. If it happened after Aakesh threatened the business family, then the system wouldn’t accept the quest to be complete.

“Whoosh!” “Whoosh!” “Whoosh!” “Whoosh!”

Suddenly, sounds of wind blowing rang in the area as the guards hidden in the room made their presence known and surrounded Aakesh.

Since all four of them belonged to the Warrior system, the aura releasing from them was enough to make Aakesh take a look at them. Out of all the power systems, the Warrior system was one with the most mighty combatants in a battle since the system demanded high battle power and superior skillset from the cultivators.

Tapi heaved a sigh of relief after her bodyguards took center stage. Until the guard’s emergence, Tapi dreaded that Aakesh would make a move on her and kill her even before the guards fought with Aakesh. Now that they were here, Tapi was confident of her safety since the Gupta family splurged a lot of supreme Primal stones on their protection and only hired the best of the best.

“Tapi, I don’t want to fight your family since I am here to provide an even better future for you,” Aakesh expressionlessly stated, ignoring the guards ready to pounce on him any moment.

Aakesh didn’t lie when he said it since the store products were truly fortune-changing for the Guhyakas. In Panagea, they could increase their lifespan by growing their levels in Panagea and then buying the cultivation out in reality.

It was just that any store customer could do that, while if Aakesh’s quest succeeded, they would do it after losing their business and transferring their entire customer base to the store.

“Hmph, you are only saying that because you are weaker than these guards,” Tapi scoffed. There was no respect in her tone this time. She even ignored that Aakesh was an Immortal.

The source of her confidence was these guards, who had just told her that they had complete confidence in killing the blue-skinned man.

As for Lily, she had completely hidden her aura after Aakesh told her to. Even her aura could prove to be an interference in the quest since many Immortal level beings could sense that Lily was no weakling and the extreme danger oozing from her.

Aakesh only disappointedly shook his head after hearing Tapi.

“Snap!”

Aakesh suddenly snapped his fingers, and soon a black energy ball the size of a human child’s fingernail appeared floating above the tip of his finger.

The expression on all the guard’s faces suddenly turned grave as they looked at the dark energy ball. The next moment, they changed their formation.

It wasn’t to attack Aakesh, but all four of them surrounded Tapi to protect her.

Tapi didn’t know the significance of the dark energy ball as she was only a Xiantian level cultivator. But after she saw her guards suddenly getting into a protection formation, her face turned grim.

“Which one of you thinks that he is strong enough to face the explosion of this tiny dark energy ball?” Aakesh expressionlessly asked as he surveyed the four complete Maharathi warriors.

The four guard’s faces turned ugly. Lily, sitting next to Aakesh, couldn’t help but giggle. But the next moment, she stopped after Aakesh sent a glance toward her.

The four guards looked toward each other and could see the helplessness in their eyes. From the tiny dark energy ball, they could sense a supreme element. The aura released from it alone sent shudders down their spine.

Tapi, who had been quite confident in her guards, couldn’t help but concerningly look at them after seeing none of the guards coming ahead.

“See, I am not weak. It’s just that I come here with a sincere heart and no attempts to threaten others,” Aakesh told Tapi, who was looking at her with a grim expression.

‘Hmm, what is it if not a threat?’ Tapi couldn’t help but curse in her heart. Her fear of Aakesh had returned after seeing the performance of her guards.
