They could not stop talking and Gerald almost threw the drinks at them. He saw that their drinks were finishing and he decided to get up to get more drinks for them. “I’ll go get some more milk tea so you guys could continue talking!” Gerald immediately stood up and left. After Gerald had left, the two sisters and Elena’s other cousin went to surround her. They saw each other a lot and they were very close. “Elena, what’s going on? Why would you choose him!” “That’s right, sis! This person is so cheap and it’s unbelievable!” “Yes! This kind of person in our school doesn’t get any friends!” “You all really shouldn’t judge a book by it’s cover you know. Gerald is a great person. He’s loyal and honest but most importantly he has great ideas! Isn’t these the qualities to look for when dating someone?” Elena was feeling helpless. “Elena, you’re too naive! You’ll soon realize that money is the most important thing in the future! But this isn’t a money issue, Elena. Even if he
“I know I know! It was very well known among the rich people a while ago because Crawford’s son bought it with eight million dollars!” “So it’s here! It looks amazing!” “Anyways, Elena, since your family has something to do with Mayberry Commercial Street. Do you think you could bring us to the villa just to have a look at the surroundings?” The aunts were very envious about it. Elena turned and looked at Gerald. He did not reject them and she nodded back at them. They immediately reached the place.Whenever Gerald was not around there would be security guards outside to stop people from going in. They were only halfway through and the guards were already there to stop them from going up. “What are you guys doing here? This isn’t an attraction, please leave right now!” the two middle-aged security guards were really strict. “We aren’t tourists, okay? This pretty lady over here is the daughter of Mr. Larson from Mayberry Commercial Street! Can’t we go in and have a look
“Look at you! Your job is to be insulted!” The securities laughed as they humiliated him. “Mr. Crawford!” Someone shouted. The securities were nervous now. They stopped laughing. What did she call him just now? Gerald? Gerald turned his head. “Rita! It has been a while!” Rita was the designer for the villa and soon she would also be the butler at this villa.Beside Rita was Nyla and a few others. They all met the last time when they were dealing with the villa. “Good afternoon, Mr. Crawford!” They used to look down on him before knowing his identity. After knowing that he controlled the entire Mayberry Commercial Street and he was really low profile, they all thought they should try their best and hope that they could marry him. “My sister was asking about you yesterday but don’t worry. I’ve not said a single thing!” Rita said. Gerald understood because after that day, Cara went back to dine in again and they did not get a discount for the second time. He must
Everyone was dumbfounded. “Who are they, Mr. Crawford?” Rita asked. She was envious when she saw the pretty Elena Larson. Rita did not feel comfortable there but she did not want to trouble Gerald. Gerald can’t actually say that Elena was his girlfriend because it would be another trouble if Mila found out. “It’s a story for next time. They are all my guests so please make some arrangements!” Gerald smiled. “Yes, Mr. Crawford!” Rita nodded her head.Ruby was stunned when she heard what Rita called him. “What? You’re a Crawford? Mayberry’s heir, Gerald Crawford?” Ruby shouted. “Yes, auntie! That’s me!” Gerald laughed interestingly. “Elena, is it true?” Even Harriet was shocked and she felt as if her face was swollen from being ‘slapped’ by Gerald. The poor peasant that had been humiliated by them along their way was Gerald Crawford! Elena nodded her head. Elena’s cousins were all taking deep breaths. Clearly, they had heard about him many times and could not believ
She could not help but feel that Gerald did not only look very refined but the more she looked at him, the more she felt that he was very handsome even though he was dressed so casually. He definitely looked much better compared to her boyfriend in every way!“Um…”Gerald could not take this enthusiasm anymore and left immediately.As for whether he hated them or not, he did not feel anything whatsoever. After all, both he and Elena were just pretending anyway.“Oh my God! Elena, you did not tell me that Gerald was Mr. Crawford! Your aunt nearly offended Mr. Crawford just like how your eldest aunt did!”Ruby clapped her hands excitedly.Harriet was obviously unhappy when she heard this. “I say, Ruby, you were the one who was speaking viciously in the first place, and you are clearly the one who had offended Mr. Crawford. So, how could you say that it is me? If you don’t believe me, you can ask my daughter. Was my tone impolite at all when I was speaking to Mr. Crawford earlier? W
”Huh? Suicide? Why?!”“Hmph! Isn’t it just because she confessed her love to Silas but he did not accept her feelings? After that, the girl could not think right anymore!”“Ah, so that’s what it is. Sigh. It seems as though more and more people are beginning to confess their love to Silas recently. However, I seem to have heard something over the past two days. It seems as though there is a girl who is actually getting pretty close to Silas!”“D*mn it! I am so jealous. Which girl could possibly be so fortunate to be favored by Silas?”“No matter who the other girls are all interested in, I only have one goal in mind, and that is none other than Mr. Crawford! Hmph!”At this time, a very cold and beautiful girl who looked like a goddess spoke up.“Wow! No one can see or touch Mr. Crawford at all! How could he possibly be as glamorous as Silas?”“Oh! Is there something wrong with you? Why are you standing in front of the entrance of the cafeteria and blocking everyone’s way? Don’t
However, it seemed as though Silas was already used to it.“I am just here to accompany one of my friends to have a meal, okay? There is no need for you to make such a big fuss!” Silas replied with a wry smile on his face.After that, he looked at the doorway behind him.At this time, two girls stepped forward under everyone’s watchful eyes and stood beside Silas.“Puff!”Gerald had just taken a sip of the soup in front of him, but he nearly spat the food out at Mila’s face when he saw the two girls who came in after Silas.“D*mn it!” Gerald was shocked.The two girls were naturally very stunning and beautiful, and they were none other than Alice and Jacelyn.“Oh my God. Is that Silas’s girlfriend? Why? Is it just because she is beautiful?”“You are so disgusting! Why are you trying to seduce Silas?”Some of the girls began to scold them indignantly.“She is not his girlfriend. Didn’t you hear what Silas said just now? She is a friend! She is just his friend! That simply mea
It seemed as though Jacelyn was trying to say ‘Gerald, you never would have expected this would you? I, Jacelyn, could actually end up in this favorable situation today. A local tycoon like Silas actually favored me and took me in as his godsister! He even bought me clothes, bags, and many other things!’.Jacelyn wanted to return Gerald all the humiliation he had made her suffer in the past.Of course, Gerald simply ignored her as he continued eating his food.Alice naturally noticed what Jacelyn had been doing.In fact, Alice had already noticed that Gerald was here when she entered the cafeteria just now.However, she simply glanced at Gerald before she looked away in a huff.Speaking of how Alice had gotten acquainted with Silas, this also had something to do with Gerald.Hadn’t Gerald dumped Alice in the small park the other day before he went to pursue Mila instead?She had felt very ashamed and angry at that time, and she had happened to meet Silas by coincidence.After
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
