”Mr. Crawford, when your banquet is over, please, come up and join us to discuss the issues I mentioned earlier.”Wesley then warmly shook hands with Gerald. When the young man waved his hands, he couldn’t help but wonder how many companies would rise overnight in Mayberry City.Mayberry City’s economy had already improved significantly.It was all because Gerald signed his name a few times.He was a young man of such power and stature, yet, never one to be pretentious or showy, from the very beginning to the end. He remained polite to everyone around him.Rare! This was really rare!After he was done talking, Wesley left the room with everyone else.The room was all but dead silent at this time. Nobody spoke a word, all looking toward Gerald with open mouths.George and his wife thought to themselves.They had initially thought that Charles was the greatest man around, albeit a little arrogant.However, now, it seemed the really powerful person turned out to be this young
Early the next morning. Since it was a Saturday, Harper and the rest of the boys wanted to wake up at their own time.Gerald did not bother them either, heading to the west cafeteria on his own.Mila had arrived early, and she was already waiting for him there.She even brought two sets of breakfast.Fried rice with egg and ham!“I bought some rice for you! Hurry up and eat it!” said Mila with a smile.Gerald wasn’t shy at all. “What’s up, Mila? What did you want to tell me?” he asked as he took a bite.Mila was dressed beautifully today. Her fair legs were exposed, and it made his heart flutter.Gerald couldn’t help but stare at her.“Hehe! It is my grandmother’s birthday today. I’ll be going back to celebrate it for her!”Mila blinked. “You should know about my relationship with Irene, right? Don’t blame me for being petty. In fact, I am not the kind who likes to compare or make comparisons. That said, my relationship with Irene is very special. We’ve been like that ever
His biggest dream was to drive a car. He wanted to drive a vehicle that belonged to himself, and it needn't be an expensive car.Now, he could finally drive!Not to mention, he had a Lamborghini! He would be lying if he said he wasn’t excited!After picking up his driving license, Gerald went to his car.“Vroom! Vroom! Vroom!”A brand new black Passat skidded past Gerald’s body.After that, the beautiful car drove around the park.Many people were walking around the park, and the Passat also attracted many girls’ attention. “Wow, it’s a Passat! It’s the latest model from this year. Looks pretty good!”“Isn’t it more than thirty thousand dollars?”“Looks like it’s the top-spec. That car should be at least forty-five thousand dollars!”“Oh, god. More than forty-five thousand dollars?! Must be another rich guy!”A group of girls quietly whispered among themselves as they pointed at the luxurious cars.This park was popular thanks to the Lamborghini.The past few days saw a
”Hey, Jordan, look! The pathetic guy you talked to is walking toward the Lamborghini!”“Hehe! Lamborghini is a reputed brand. That pathetic jerk must be trying to gain some insight. He might even take some pictures and post them on social media to show how awesome it is. There are many people like that!”The girls replied in contempt.“Perhaps. There is nothing those sorts are incapable of doing!” smirked Jordan.“By the way, Jordan, do you know who owns this car?”“I really don’t know, but I can tell you a lot about the configuration and interior of this car. It a first-class design! Even a simple part is made through strict data calculations, all personally supervised by a master with decades of experience!” Jordan replied with a smile.“Ahh? You’ve aroused our interest, Jordan. Care to explain more to us so that we can learn more about the car?” one of the girls asked, with a surprised look on her face.They were saying this, not just because they wanted to learn more about t
The long-haired beauty yelled in shock.As soon as her violent temper flared up, she raised her hands, wanting to hit him.Beep! Beep!Suddenly, the Lamborghini’s four lights, which had been silent for over a month, flashed brightly.Then, almost instantly, the engine came to life with a low rumble.The doors unclicked and opened upwards.The car seemed to be glowing extremely brightly, its body letting out a sheen under the bright sunlight. It looked as though it had been waiting a long time for its owner to return.Gerald put down the key in his hand.After that, he slowly walked over to the car and went straight for the driver’s seat.It was completely silent even though more than a dozen girls were standing nearby at this time.The sudden silence felt as though the world had already planned it in advance. The whole area had become completely silent.Everyone’s eyes were wide open as they witnessed the scene.Jordan’s mouth and eyes opened up as large as they possibly
Gerald did not think too much after hearing the voice on the other end of the line.He simply sped up as he rushed over to the Royal Dragon Villa.This was a villa that was similar to Mountain Wayfair Entertainment.There was integrated entertainment and catering in it.However, when it came to the facilities, this place could not be compared to the Mountain Wayfair Entertainment at all.Of course, despite this, this was still the best place for second and third-tier family gatherings.Mila’s grandmother’s birthday banquet would be held here today.After arriving, Gerald drove his car to the parking lot at the side.“Okay…okay, okay, okay…okay, done!”The security guard was an uncle who was in his fifties and he seemed to be stuttering.Under his command, Gerald would have definitely driven into the ditch if it was not because of the automatic parking system in his own Lamborghini.Gerald could only smile helplessly.He raised his hand before he gave the uncle fifteen dolla
”Hello, Gerald. So Mila told me your family is running a business. What sort of business is your family doing, if I may ask?”Rita quizzed as her arms were still tightly folded across her chest.“Oh, well, all sorts really, just into different businesses and industries.”To be honest, it was a question Gerald never really knew how to answer.After all, his sister always mentioned that their family had too many different ventures. Basically, the family is involved in almost half of the world’s capital or industries.Plus, he came from a huge family whose businesses had been passed down for hundreds of years.Jessica did not exactly share much about their family.Hence with only limited knowledge about his family, he could only answer those questions from others very generally.“There seems to be no solid answer at all, eh? It’s so confusing!”Rita shook her head as she smiled wryly.“I heard that Mila and you met when the both of you were learning how to drive. You must have a
”A jade ring!”“What a filial man you are, Kenneth! The value of this jade ring is worth at least ten to twelve thousand dollars! Tsk tsk tsk!”Everyone could not help but continue to exclaim in admiration.After all, it was really very filial of a boyfriend to give his girlfriend’s grandmother a piece of jade ring for her birthday.“Alright, alright. Irene, hurry up and ask Kenneth to sit down!”Her grandmother was so elated upon receiving the ring that she couldn’t even keep her mouth closed anymore. She couldn’t even bear to put the ring down.The more she looked at Kenneth, the more she liked him.Even Irene’s father felt immensely proud at that very moment.In fact, the reason why everyone gathered here today to celebrate and congratulate the golden lady for her birthday, wasn’t just merely to show filial piety.That was just, but a small part.The larger reason was the fact that the old lady was still holding onto all the assets that were left behind by the old man when
Watching in fury as his black air blade dissipated, Daryl roared, “W-what power…!” As Daryl was too shocked to move, Gerald took the chance to yell, “Attack…!” And just like that, a blazing light momentarily lit the entire sky…! As surges of energy shot out in all directions, Daryl’s devilish formation was reduced to dust in a matter of seconds! “No…!” howled the anguished Daryl as the earth beneath him cracked and clouds of dust flew everywhere! It was chaos incarnate… yet moments later, everything fell deathly silent. Gerald himself had already vomited a pool of blood by now, and as he fell unconscious, he could feel his body freezing up… Fast forward to three years later, Mayberry Commercial Street was as lively as ever… “Darling, it’s your brother’s wedding day today… Shouldn’t we head over earlier? You’ve been dolling yourself up for ages!” “Fine, dad… Though, isn’t Second Uncle already there to help set things up? That aside, my brother’s gone through so many hardsh
‘Daryl’s been possessed by the Supreme Devilish Lord for ages, and the lord himself has been using your grandfather’s body to attempt his resurrection! This cycle has been repeating for years, and the Supreme Devilish Lord has already captured many people with Yin physiques but thankfully failed! This grew so out of hand that the Soluna Deus Sect, or Sun League as you call them, have actively been trying to force the Supreme Devilish Lord to show himself!’ ‘In order to further deter the Supreme Devilish Lord’s efforts, they’ve even been kidnapping people with Yin physiques! Do you see the entire picture now, boy?’ explained Finnley. ‘…So that’s the truth… Then, how’s Mila?’ asked Gerald. ‘She’s fine, but your reunion depends on whether we can destroy him this time!’ replied one of the white-robed ladies. That was relieving to hear… Still, as it turned out, the Sun League weren’t villains at all! They had simply been abducting people like his second uncle, Mila, and Leo for the
His chest felt like it was exploding, and it didn’t take long for blood to spurt out of his mouth. What immense devilish power…! Following a sneer, the Nirvadevil sect’s master scoffed, “I know you raised your cultivation level this high because you want to learn more about the Sun League, but you should understand that devilish cultivators will always be stronger! Did you really think that acquiring the angelic inheritance would give you absolute power? How laughable! Your Herculean Primordial Spirit won’t save you this time!” Furrowing his brows, Gerald retorted, “…Who on earth are you? How do you know me so well? In fact, how do you know about my Herculean Primordial Spirit?” Laughing in response, the master then said, “Oh, you’ll know who I am soon! But before that, allow me to snatch your Herculean Primordial Spirit! I need to destroy it so that the sacred Primordial Devilish Internal Pellet can reign supreme…!” Upon hearing that, Gerald couldn’t help but frown even more.
“…This formation. It feels… familiar,” muttered Sanchez. “Same thought here. I think it’s the Septelic Perishment Formation of the ancient Black Dragon Sect!” replied Gerald. “Ah, no wonder it felt so familiar… Though, wasn’t this formation lost to time ages ago? How did you learn of it?” asked the surprised Sanchez. The formation had been a legendary one that, as Sanchez had said, had been lost at the end of the ancient era. Just from its name alone, one could imagine that this immensely powerful formation had been used against the people of the Deitus Realm. In the end, however, the allies of the Deitus Realm still managed to destroy the Black Dragon Sect, thus leading to the destruction of all the sect’s other mysterious and bizarre formations… Naturally, they had made sure to obliterate all of them to ensure that nobody in the future would be able to threaten them like that again in the future… Whatever the case was, Gerald was quick to reply, “I read about it somewhere. Ho
Upon hearing Gerald’s question, Lord Ethern was prompted to reveal a few samples of the herbs they were locating… and it wasn’t long before Gerald felt his eyes twitch. After all, those samples were herbs inherited by the ancient witches… In other words, they were the ones he was for as well! Naturally, Marcel recognized them as well, and he was quick to say, “…These…” Noticing how the two were looking at the herbs, Darkwind muttered, “…I take it that the herbalist they’re looking for really is Ms. Phoebe, Mr. Crawford?” “…Well, it’s hard to say if she is since Marcel already said that the timing wasn’t right… Regardless, this is an important clue. Lord Ethern, was it? Could you elaborate a bit more on your master?” muttered Gerald as he turned to face the man again. “I really can’t say…! Look, Master always appears before us in a shadowy form, so none of us have ever seen his face!” replied Lord Ethern while shaking his head. “…Is that the truth?” “I swear on my life!” exc
“Flaxen, you bloody traitor…!” roared the three other lords who grew so angry that their faces went red!However, they had no time to remain angry since the Blancetnoir Double Lords and Sanchez had already made their move! As one would expect, it only took a single round for all three of the lords to crumble to the ground.With his eyes wide open, Lord Ethern stuttered, “Who… Who the hell are you people…?!”“You don’t need to know that information. That aside, tell us what you four are planning to do already,” scoffed Gerald as he slowly approached the three defeated men.“…Who the hell do you think you are? What makes you think I’ll comply so easily?” growled Lord Ethren.Upon hearing that, Gerald raised his hand… and within a split second, Lord Ethern let out a bone-chilling wail. The Blancetnoir Double Lords had just snapped both of the poor man’s arms!“If you want your other limbs intact, don’t make me repeat the question,” growled Gerald.Now terrified, the agonized man replied,
From what Gerald could tell, all of them were devilish cultivators. After all, their auras were way different compared to regular cultivators like Gerald and demonic cultivators like Sanchez. Though he had read about devilish cultivators before in one of Uncle Zeman’s books, this was his first time actually coming across them. It was a while later when the frowning Sanchez muttered, “So, they want to ambush some herb lady… Is she the one we’re looking for?” Sanchez, for one, had pretty much been frowning throughout his journey with Gerald. His only hope at the moment was for Gerald to find the person he was looking for as soon as possible. Otherwise, who knew how long that boy would continue controlling his life! Regardless, Marcel was quick to add, “I had the same thought, Mr. Crawford. After all, Phoebe excels not only in pharmacology, but also in all sorts of special techniques and formations!” Watching as Gerald nodded, the Blancetnoir Double Lords couldn’t help but scoff,
There were two straightforward purposes of the trip. The first was to find Phoebe, the descendant of the ancient witches. Only by finding her would Gerald have a chance to locate Daryl’s hideout… Hopefully the Yinblood pellet—that was now in his hands—would aid with that effort… As for the second goal, he was hoping to retrieve the inheritance according to the Zearl’s instructions. After all, he’d only stand a fighting chance against Daryl and the Soluna Sect after getting the inheritance. While it was true that Gerald’s cultivation level was currently one of the highest in all of the cultivation realm, the fact remained that Daryl practiced devilish cultivation, and those from the Soluna Deus Sect were already in the Deitus Realm. In other words, he was merely an ant to them, which was why he was making sure to fully prepare himself before confronting them. Though he now had Sanchez and the Blancetnoir Double Lords under his command, he still felt that he was underprepared… Re
Now that all three of them had been subdued with the Nineraid Band, the other big shot cultivators couldn’t help but stare enviously at Gerald, knowing full well that they’d never be able to obtain his angelic artifacts. After all, if he could take down the Blancetnoir Double Lords and Sanchez, then what chance did they have? By this point, Sanchez had managed to get to his feet, albeit with quite a bit of difficulty. Naturally, he no longer dared to make any rash moves on Gerald. Instead, he was prompted to resentfully say, “You’re really something else, Gerald…! It makes me wonder why you still need our help. After all, not only are you the sole person who knows the secrets of the general’s tomb, but you also possess those angelic artifacts!” “Oh, don’t you worry about that. With how powerful you three are, I’m sure you’ll become indispensable assistants as we head to the North Desert in search of a certain someone! Speaking of which, if you’re already thinking about killing me t
