Chapter 2017

Penulis: Two Ears is Bodhi
After a short pause, all four of the assassins eventually shook their heads!

Upon seeing that, Yalinda was rightfully angry as she growled, “You
!”

Realizing that he still had a chance to get out of this situation, a sly smile flashed across Clyde’s face. Following that, he feigned aggrievance as he said, “You see, General Lucarl? I’m innocent! Please clear my name, general!”

With the current turn of events, Gerald was now wondering whether he should’ve let Yalinda do the talking


After all, though the assassins were mute, they were by no means dumb. They probably figured that Gerald wouldn’t be able to do anything to them in the presence of so many people. By choosing to lie, not only would Clyde’s life be spared, but also theirs!

Whatever the case was, Kay then cleared his throat before asking sternly, “Again, just to confirm. Is it true that Clyde didn’t send you over?”

Watching as the four then nodded again, Kay added, “Very well. We’ll put the matter aside for the mome

    Upon returning to the delivery house that night, Yalinda immediately yelled angrily, “That b*stard Clyde
! To think that he would be shameless enough to deny his sins in public! And those four b*stards are just as bad as he is!” “Just forget about it, Yalinda. We couldn’t have predicted that scenario
 Well, if we were a bit more careful, we probably could. With that in mind, we just need to be more careful next time!” comforted Tanner as he patted his daughter’s back. “Captain Juans is right, Yalinda. There’s no need to be angry since Clyde’s dying by my hands sooner or later! Regardless, during these two days before the semi-finals, I’ll be sure to make him pay the price for messing with us!” added Gerald as he narrowed his eyes, now fully determined to kill Clyde. “Oh? Do you already have a plan to take him down, Gerald?” asked Tanner. “I do, though I’ll need to trouble you a bit
 Essentially, I need you to send someone out to constantly monitor Clyde. I just need to know whe

    "I want to apologize to you for what happened today. It was because of my actions that you were almost in danger. It was my fault. But I hope that in the future, you'll consider working with us instead. We were lucky to bring you back this time, but it might not be the case next time," Gerald softly said after clearing his throat."So, you know it happened because of your actions?" Lindsay looked at Gerald sarcastically and slammed her utensils on the table. "Gerald, I was in Yanam for a family visit. I admit that I might have been humiliated long ago without you. But think about what I've been through during this time. Is this some movie or TV drama I'm in? Why did I end up on an island? And why did the people on the island kidnap me?""That's what I'm trying to say. For your future safety, I hope you can listen to me," Gerald said with a slight frown. It was supposed to be a simple apology, but he had unexpectedly stirred up Lindsay's emotions."Can you please tell me why you

    After staring at Terenzio—who was lying on the floor—for a while, Tarek Crawford eventually dragged his body onto a cart. Tarek had decided that he would simply say that he was going out to fish as an excuse to toss the body into the sea tonight
 Regardless, the woman soon returned with some water, and two immediately grabbed some brushes to begin scrubbing off the blood on the floor
 While doing so, Tarek—who was still a bit worried—couldn’t help but say, “Remember, nobody finds out about what happened tonight
!” “B-but if Terenzio doesn’t return, his family will surely investigate
!” replied the woman who was equally as worried. “It’s not like we can stop that. If his family does eventually interrogate us, simply say that you don’t know anything! In the end, this is a matter between the head of the family and his grandson, so we shouldn’t meddle!” instructed Tarek as he rapidly waved his hand. “
Huh? The head of the family and his grandson
? What’s going on between them
?”

    What Gerald didn’t know, however, was the fact that news about the island had already reached Yearning Island
 Sitting beside a moth-eaten wooden table—that looked like it was going to collapse at any second—inside a relatively simple-thatched hut, was none other than a cloaked Daryl
 As he poured some tea out of his ancient teapot, a fierce-looking young man walked up to Daryl before whispering, “According to our men in Gong Island, Terenzio and a few strangers have gone to one of the nearby islands, and they’ve been staying there for a few days now. We suspect that Gerald could be there as well.” “Let’s just wait for them to come. I’d like to see how strong his cultivation has gotten after so many years. Also, what’s Trenzio’s cultivation level?” asked Daryl, his hand quivering slightly as he held onto the teapot. “Not too strong. From what we’ve gathered, he’s simply in the middle level among our family members,” replied the man after thinking for a while. “I see. Just ke

    After waiting for about two more days, Will couldn’t take it anymore and rushed to report the situation to Daryl
 “Oh? Terenzio’s disappeared, you say?” replied Daryl—who was in his hut—quite nonchalantly. The news itself wasn’t all that surprising to him. After all, though he hadn’t taught much to Gerald, the boy was still a Crawford by blood. In other words, Daryl didn’t doubt Gerald’s natural talent. Regardless, Will then clenched his fists as he replied, “That’s right! I’ve been trying to contact him for a few days now to no avail
 I’m just worried that he fought with Gerald and ended up
 Well
 I’m just worried that Gerald’s killed him!” Will was naturally uneasy by this. After all, Daryl was already treating him as his own son and everyone on the island knew that he was to be Daryl’s successor. With that in mind, he saw Gerald—who was Daryl’s grandson—as a natural threat to his position, and the only way Will would be able to feel at ease would be by killing Gerald

    “Look, I really have no idea where he is! Please stop asking me!” replied Tarek, worried that if he let anything slip out, Gerald would surely have his head. However, if the men kept pressing on, then the main family would end him instead
! “If you refuse to comply, I’ll simply bring you to the Penalty Division right now to let the elder in charge personally question you!” retorted the same man as he grabbed Tarek by his collar. At that moment, a woman rushed out of a room while yelling, “D-don’t! We’ll tell you everything we know
!” Though they had never seen the elder of the Penalty Division before—since they had been living on Gong Island their entire lives—, they had heard many horrifying things about him from Terenzio over the years. One of the crueler punishments they’ve heard was about a person who was sentenced to get bitten by a hundred snakes just because he left Yearning Island without permission. Listening to the punishment alone was enough to send chills running do

    “Will Crawford? Doesn’t ring a bell,” replied Gerald with a smile. “There’s no need for you to know about him. All you need to know is that you’ll be kneeling and begging for mercy soon,” replied the leader as the four men stood side by side before promptly releasing their strong auras
 Knowing that this was going to be a battle between powerful cultivators, members of the side family—who were present—immediately rushed to hide behind large stones and trees
 As for Master Ghost, he was standing on the balcony of the wooden house, a compass in hand as a nervous Aiden stood beside him
 Sweating anxiously, Aiden couldn’t help but ask, “
Do
 you think Gerald will be fine, Master Ghost
?” Aiden was rightfully worried since this was the first time he had seen Gerald come across such powerful people. “He’ll be fine. Still, his grandfather must have found out that Gerald was here
 Regardless, Gerald should easily be able to handle these people that Daryl sent over,” replied Master

    They, on the other hand, had been cultivating their combat skills in the Crawford family from the very beginning. With that in mind, they were all extremely confident that they would be able to represent the Crawford family in the coming cultivation competition. Who knows, if they managed to perform well in the competition, they could end up becoming disciples of the chief! By that point, they’d become stars of the Crawford family, and if things went swimmingly, they could even end up being one of the successor candidates in the chief’s eyes! After all, though Daryl was a cultivator, he was already extremely old. Currently in his eighties, he would probably die in another twenty to thirty years
 “Arm Boxing?” replied Gerald as he narrowed his eyes. He recalled his father mentioning that the first chief of the Crawford family had developed a powerful boxing technique known as Arm Boxing. The technique itself was so powerful due to the fact that it was a combination of four separat

    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, “

” 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

    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.
