Transmigrated as Investment Banker in Cultivation world

"Senior, can I leave now?" Jason Tiger looked at David and meekly said.

David had other plans. Ever since the bandit girl attacked him, he had been formulating a plan.

"You will work for me from now on," David casually said.

"What do you want me to do?" Jason was initially shocked but quickly calmed down. What could he possibly do for David?

"Don't worry, just keep doing what you always do." David smiled, a grin unknowingly appearing on his face.

Right! He was going to do business that required minimum investment—redistributing wealth from the rich to the poor, like himself.

"Okay, sign this employment contract." David bought a contract from the bank's shop and handed it to Jason. With no other choice, Jason reluctantly signed the contract.

After taking care of a few more things, David went back to the lake where his companions were staying.

It was already afternoon when David came back with the Origin Guard. The lake was as beautiful as ever, its pristine blue water matching the color of the sky perfectly.

Mary, who had just broken through to the Foundation Building Realm, was sitting peacefully under a tree, her eyes closed, stabilizing her cultivation. Sebastian seemed to be practicing something.

The water of the lake rose in front of him, transforming into snow, then into steam, and slowly disappearing into the air. He was practicing with all his might, trying to break through as soon as possible.

Ruby was also practicing but sat quietly on the ground, absorbing mana from the atmosphere. The atmosphere was highly competitive.

A gentle breeze blew, causing David's coat to flutter slightly. After looking at the three of them, he also wanted to break through as soon as possible. But first, he wanted to absorb the bandit girl's Crystallization of Life.

"Mary, I am going to sleep here." Without waiting for her reaction, he closed his eyes. The window from before once again popped up in front of him.

[Regretfully! You lost one of your clients today. However, the Bank of Eternal Origin can never suffer a loss. Even if she died, the client will have to pay back somehow; therefore, her soul was captured. You now have the following options, keep in mind that you can only choose one.

1 - Extract Client's Crystallion of Life (Sharpshooter, Grade - Uncommon)

2 - Extract memories from her birth till her death.

3 - Any item that client owned in her lifetime.

4 - Do Nothing, let the compound interest do its thing and decide again when the Client dies in her next life.

Please note that capturing the soul and imprisoning it requires a large amount of mana, leaving you only four hours to make a choice.]

David chose the first option without hesitation. Suddenly, he felt as if his brain had been struck by a hammer. In the next moment, he fainted.

Inside his Spiritual Space, the scene was vastly different. A purple ball filled with unknown symbols flickered at the center. Before it could do anything else, it felt a terrifying suction force and was swallowed by the huge Yin and Yang symbol.

For a moment, a new color seemed to appear on the symbol, but it disappeared. The speed at which the symbol sucked mana from the atmosphere increased, and the frequency of cracks appearing also multiplied.

It wouldn't be long before the entire space was filled with cracks and collapsed under its own weight like a black hole. Of course, David knew nothing about this; if he did, his attitude might not be as laid back as it was now.

It was already morning, but David was still sleeping soundly. Mary didn't disturb him, sitting beside him on the ground.

She wasn't alone; Sebastian was also beside her. However, compared to her, Sebastian's brows were scrunched up together. This was the second time David had fallen asleep for such a long time.

"Well, the more mysterious, the better." Sebastian's eyes flashed with a strange light. If he followed a normal person, he would never be able to fulfill his goals.

He turned his head to look at Ruby, who was still sitting cross-legged and meditating in the distance. This girl gave him a weird feeling every time he looked at her.

Definitely someone with Emperor Grade Crystallization of Life. However, he wasn't worried about her; he could read her like an open book.

The frown on his face deepened as his eyes landed on the black-haired girl sitting on the ground, looking at David with worry.

The feeling she gave him was completely harmless, as if she were the most innocent person alive in the world.

"How laughable." Sebastian suddenly wanted to laugh at his own thoughts. As if anyone who met that man were innocent.

They were all demons; all three of them were monster's. And from his experience, the smiling girl was the most dangerous cultivator he had ever met.

At this moment, the sound of footsteps came from the surroundings. A young man with a scholarly bearing, dressed in a white robe, appeared.

He had long hair tied together in a bun with the help of a wooden hairpin. His face was filled with confidence as he looked at the trio with interest. He had been traveling for hours and decided to choose the lake as his resting point.

Allen Rushmore looked at the three people beside the lake with caution. It wasn't rare to encounter people near the lake as it was one of the major resting points on the route leading to Ashwood City.

The elder of his village had warned him to treat travelers with caution and not trust anyone easily. People's hearts were fickle; he could only believe in himself.

However, when his eyes landed on Mary, he was stunned.

Allen felt a rush of unknown emotions, that he had never felt before. It was only with sheer will power that clarity returned to his mind.

On the other hand, the trio didn't even spare him a single glance, they continued to do what they were doing.
