”Gerald, aren’t you foolish? It feels like you have been studying in college for three years for nothing. Don’t be in a daze anymore. Hurry up and follow Samuel, Dawn, and the others into the exhibition hall. Seriously! I really do now know how my sister can actually be interested in someone as lowly as you!”Rita replied coldly.No one wanted to continue talking about this matter anymore.After all, Gerald was also very embarrassed at this time. Therefore, he had no choice but to ignore Yoel and followed Samuel and the rest into the exhibition hall.The VIP passage and the ordinary passage have very different seating positions.Those who entered from the VIP passage were all seated at the front row of the exhibition hall.And those who entered from the ordinary passage like Gerald could only be seated at the back of the hall.“Eh? Samuel, is it you? How are you? How is your father?”“Uncle Light, you are here too? We are good! We are all good! My father is often thinking of yo
Dawn was speechless. “That’s right. But Dawn, there is a really true saying. A person with no temperament or class will never be able to have any temperament or class. No matter how rich they are, they will never have any class at all! Just look at Samuel. He is not only very wealthy at home, but he also has a very good temperament and class. Ahh! Take a look at Gerald again. He won the lottery but he turned out to be nothing at all.”Nyla looked at Gerald and she was completely speechless as she shook her head.If a person did not have any self-knowledge, then what difference would he have from a corpse?Both of them were thinking this to themselves.To be honest, Gerald was feeling a tightness in his chest now. It felt really uncomfortable to be snubbed despite showing good intentions.However, he decided to sit down first. They could just say whatever they wanted to!Gerald sat down.Of course, he was seated at the back.At this time, Melanie turned around. When she saw th
”Ah? That is impossible, Uncle Light! Mr. Lyle is the richest man in Mayberry City! Therefore, I am certain that he definitely has the ability to buy it!”Samuel was very surprised.“Hehehe. You are wrong. In the past, Mr. Lyle was indeed very capable. However, I received news that Mr. Lyle has been transferred from Mayberry Commercial Street. Mayberry Commercial Street will be managed and run by someone else in the future!”“Even though Mr. Lyle has already been transferred, Mr. Crawford had taken him in. So, at this time, even if he has the strength and capability to buy the villa, he will not buy it!”“Ahh? So, it turns out that Mr. Lyle has been transferred away?”“Yes. Mr. Crawford is still keeping him by his side. Therefore, he will definitely restrain himself a little!”Samuel nodded repeatedly, indicating that he understood what Wyatt was saying.“Brother Samuel, dad, what are the both of you talking about? Who is this Mr. Crawford? Why haven’t you mentioned him to me be
”Hahaha! No one is buying it indeed!”Samuel replied as he smiled.Wyatt smiled bitterly. “I already told you that as long as the person was a smart businessman, he would not waste one hundred and twenty million dollars on the villa unless…”“I want it!”Before Wyatt could even finish speaking, he heard a voice that was not very loud but was still loud enough that everyone in the whole hall could hear his words.“Huh?!”Doubts were flying in the air at this time.Everyone was staring at this side.Wyatt and Samuel were also dumbfounded as they turned their heads back to look at the person.This was because the person who shouted this sentence was none other than this hillbilly that Samuel had brought in with him. It was Gerald!“D*mn it! Gerald, are you crazy? How dare you shout so arrogantly? Do you know what is going to happen if you said that you are going to buy the villa but do now have enough money to pay for the villa?”“It’s over! He is not here to gain insight! This
Zack, Howard, and his son went up the platform together. They stood in the same row subconsciously. To everyone’s surprise, they gave Gerald a 90-degree bow.“Nice to meet you, Mr. Crawford. Congratulations on purchasing the Mountain Top Villa successfully.” They said in unison, just like they had discussed it, and reached an agreement beforehand. A loud bang was heard. As soon as they said that, it appeared like a great blow was thrown into the crowd, and they were shocked immensely.“Mr. Crawford! So it turns out that he’s Mr. Crawford!” “Oh my God! Is he the Mr. Crawford from Mayberry? Is he the absolute national millionaire, Mr. Crawford?” They gaped in surprise and excitement. “What? Mr. Crawford? So Gerald is that Mr. Crawford!” Rita staggered and retreated weakly. During their family reunion before, somebody made a guess that Gerald was the absolute national millionaire, Mr. Crawford. However, Rita had denied it there and then.It was because Gerald d
“D*mn it!” Gerald felt like he was about to have a headache.Those two women were indeed the most shameless women Gerald had ever met in his whole lifetime, even more so than Xavia. He asked them to bark like a dog, and they did so without any hesitation. Actually, both Dawn and Nyla had risked everything they had. They would certainly cling onto Mr. Crawford vigorously no matter what he asked them to do.It was indeed such an effective tactic. Gerald was speechless now. He waved his hand. “Just come along if you want!”“Mr. Crawford!” At that moment, Wyatt shouted. He raised both of his hands and bent his body slightly. He then squeezed out of the crowd and ran toward Gerald. “Mr. Crawford. I didn’t know who you are just now. I was wrong. Please forgive my bad manners. I’m Wyatt Light. We were introduced to each other just now.” Wyatt held both of his hands in midair, wanting to have a closer contact with him, shaking his hands.Mr. Crawford was indeed not someone wh
Soon, Gerald reached the college.He went straight to his own department classroom. When he reached the west entrance, he saw that it was crowded. There were a lot of students from different departments, and they almost blocked the road.Gerald saw Harper and the others who stood in the crowd. So he squeezed his way into the crowd.Then only he saw what was happening. A girl was standing at the west entrance, holding up a sign pitifully.She lowered her head greatly. But Gerald recognized her at first sight. It was none other than Layla. Beside her, there were Cassandra, Victor, and the president of the student union—Whitney. At that moment, Layla acted like a background image, giving the others the chance to snap their photographs with her. “Gerald, here you are. It’s so frustrating!” Harper patted Gerald’s shoulders slightly. He then said angrily, “Layla is indeed in some crisis now. But the class representative is over the line. It’s fine if they want to hold a
Gerald, are you even aware of what you are talking about right now? I must warn you now. Get lost this instant. Otherwise, you’ll be expelled!”Cassandra valued her dignity and fame so much. She was outraged when she heard Gerald condemning them like that.Victor was even more so.“You’re just a poor pathetic person. Don’t feel so smug about yourself just because you won a lottery. How dare you shove me away!”Then, Victor grabbed Gerald’s hair and dragged him along. He then slapped Gerald’s face directly. Victor was certainly a bad-tempered man. He came from a rich family. When was he being treated like that?Besides, Gerald was not as strong as he was.Gerald felt quite painful, being slapped by him. “Please don’t beat him up anymore. Victor, I’m begging you. Don’t beat him up! I don’t want this donation anymore. Just don’t beat him up!” Layla was deeply frightened. She then rushed toward Victor and grabbed him since that incident happened because of her. “Get lost!
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
