The atmosphere at Noelle’s birthday banquet changed as soon as Gerald arrived.

This was especially so for Gracie’s emotions. It would not be an exaggeration to describe that all of her menopausal symptoms for the next thirty years of her life had an outbreak at this exact moment.

Anyone could tell that her daughter, Noelle, had a very unusual relationship with this young man. As a person who had already gone through all of these experiences before, Gracie could tell that her daughter seemed to be interested in this young man.

However, Noelle was very indifferent toward Preston.

If Gracie allowed this to develop any further, it would certainly be very troublesome if Preston was offended.

Under this kind of situation, as Noelle’s mother, Gracie could not just let this pass without coming up with a solution.

She could not simply continue watching as her daughter took one step after the other into an abyss, right?!

Therefore, Gracie was in a foul mood, and she was very unfriendly to

    It was obvious that everything had been premeditated.“I was initially planning on giving you some leeway, but it seems as though you do not want it at all!” Gerald said coldly as he smiled at the manager.“Gerald, don’t attack him!” Noelle was a little frightened at this time.At this point, she knew that Preston must have secretly planned for the manager to deliberately humiliate and make things difficult for Gerald.If Gerald were to beat the manager up, Preston would certainly have a way to deal with Gerald for his actions, then.Thus, Noelle wanted to dissuade Gerald from doing so.“Attack him? Hahaha! I do not need to personally take any actions against a worthless person like him! In fact, at the very beginning, he was still worthy enough to receive a few slaps from me. However, now, he is not worthy at all!” Gerald sneered.“Young lad, I think you must really be tired of living! Men, come! Throw him out of this place!” The manager sneered.After that, he looked at Graci

    At this time in the lobby, all of the staff were all dressed up, and they were all ready, solemnly and respectfully. Even the hotel staff were not an exception.All of them had already assembled in the lobby on the first floor of the hotel.Everyone was very excited when they heard that the chairman was personally making a trip here today. There had never been such a thing before.The manager, Hazen, had also put on a suit at this time as he stood aside in preparation to greet and meet the chairman.He was extremely nervous at this time.“Aunt Wauter, Uncle Shadwell, I know a lot of uncles from the Longthorne Group. Since they are coming over here, I would like to go down and greet them. Otherwise, if they find out that I did not go down to greet them when they are here, they might actually blame me for being ignorant!”At this time, in the private room, Preston put down the wine glass in his hand and spoke up as he looked at Gracie.“Oh, of course! Preston, you must know of man

    “Chairman Wadder, your body is so frail and delicate now. How could you kneel in front of this stinky brat?! I will find someone to deal with him right now!” Hazen said viciously.The chairman was instantly enraged as he stared at Hazen in disbelief. After that, he shouted at Mr. Zillan, “Beat him up! I want you to beat him up until his mouth is all swollen!”Mr. Zillan hurriedly replied, “Yes, sir!”As soon as he waved his hand, several of the chairman’s personal bodyguards hurriedly came forward directly before pressing Hazen down on the ground.There was even a bodyguard who brought a baton over.“Chairman! What did I do wrong?!” Hazen was filled with grievance as he cried out loud.Boom!A loud sound came, and the bodyguard had already hit Hazen on his mouth with the baton.At this time, Hazen’s nose and mouth were filled with blood.Hazen’s eyes were also filled with tears.When the people on the sideline saw this, they were all terrified, especially Gracie and the oth

    “Gerald? Are you full already?” asked Noelle as she attempted to stop him from leaving. The subsequent birthday party was extremely hasty if anything, mainly due to what happened a while back. Even so, nobody dared to speak up any longer, especially Gracie who had remained obediently quiet this entire time. “Indeed I am!” “I see… By the way, Gerald, my mom wanted me to ask you what you did for a living…” asked Noelle in a soft tone, though it was evident that she was curious about that as well. After all, everyone had seen how Chairman Wadder treated Gerald earlier. “Me? Good question! I wonder what I do for a living myself!” Hearing that, Noelle simply replied with a laugh. Gerald was getting more and more mysterious by the second… “Actually… Could… it be that you’re the legendary and mysterious Mr. Crawford from Mayberry City…?” asked Noelle again, her voice gentle. By that point, Gracie and the others had gathered behind Noelle. All of them were holding onto their br

    The black helicopter—that looked similar to a falcon—was unmanned, and it was currently flying itself toward Gerald’s location through its autopilot system, absolutely stupefying everyone else who saw it. That helicopter… It had to cost at least fifteen million dollars, right…? Did it belong to Gerald? Noelle found herself covering her mouth in her flabbergasted state. Gerald had given all of them his answer without even needing to directly say it. Soon enough, the helicopter touched down and Gerald got into the cockpit. Looking at Noelle from inside the helicopter, he then smiled before saying, “There’s your answer. If there’s anything else you need in the future, just look for Zack!” After flashing her another subtle smile, he then flew the helicopter away without even turning to take a second glance. “…Oh… my… God. He… H-he really was Mr. Crawford from Mayberry! Gerald’s Mr. Crawford! My god, we’re going to be rich! The Shadwells are going to be living prosperously!” sh

    Soon enough, a few thousand workers arrived, ready for duty. Since their task was to penetrate the mountain, they had no real choice but to first demolish Mountain Top Villa. Of course, with such a major operation happening, observant people soon realized what was happening. With that, news about it began spreading online like wildfire, causing a heated discussion among those in Mayberry. “Are they really planning to demolish Mountain Top Villa?” “They are! D*mn it! To even consider demolishing that villa that cost over a hundred and twenty million dollars… How rich they must be!” discussed fans of the building among themselves. Regardless, even with so much information about the incident circulating the net, the administrative department of Mountain Top Villa hadn’t seemed to receive any news about the demolition yet. It didn’t help that when Zack wanted something done, he didn’t ever explain himself to those from the subordinate departments. After all, to him, there was no

    At that moment, the doors to the villa were opened, and in stepped a few bodyguards, dragging Rita along with them. Rita herself was struggling quite a bit to get free as she shouted, “Unhand me! Unhand me this instant!” “Cease this at once!” shouted Gerald as he immediately began walking over to them. “…Gerald?” muttered Rita in a rather surprised tone the second she saw him. From the moment her cousin had gone missing, she hadn’t met or even heard any news about Gerald. Snapping out of her shock quickly, Rita then thought to herself, ‘Humph… Gerald Crawford… The rich heir of the Crawford family with near-endless wealth… Being so powerful, I had my doubts that you’d still think fondly about my cousin after all this time… Hell, you never even contacted us from the day she went missing! You probably don’t even care about whether my cousin’s dead or still alive!’ Back then, Gerald had only sent Zack over to pacify the Smiths. Relaying what Gerald had told him, Zack told them

    “…Is… Is that really true…?” asked Rita. After hearing his explanation and seeing the sachet again, Rita had to admit that she was starting to believe him slightly. It also helped that she knew how Gerald was as a person, at least in the past. Regardless, he didn’t seem like the kind of person who would just forget someone he loved that much. “I’m saying it now that I’ve never personally contacted you throughout these two years since I was too ashamed to stand before any of the Smiths. Why do you think I kept sending Zack over to help you? Even so, Zack’s told me that none of you have accepted any of my gifts. Is that true?” asked Gerald who hadn’t really questioned their decision before. “It is. The Smiths have their own dignity to maintain too, you know? Since Mila’s gone missing and both of you aren’t even married, what right do we have to take your things? At least that’s what my grandma keeps saying!” replied Rita now that Gerald had cleared up some initial misunderstandings

    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.

    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!
