”1902! This is it!”When Hayley saw it, she pushed the door open.“Jacelyn, we’re here to see you!”“Alice! Hayley! You’re here!” Jacelyn was eating a banana at this time. She was delighted when she saw that Alice and Hayley were here.The next step was very simple. They started asking Jacelyn about her condition.Finally, they were talking about the cause and effect!“What? It was Gerald who saved you? Where is he, then?” Alice stood up suddenly as she exclaimed in surprise. Everyone was shocked. If anyone was particularly sensitive to the word ‘Gerald’, it was none other than Alice.After Alice had returned to her dormitory yesterday, she did not think about Silas or anything else. All she could think about was Gerald alone.Her heart hurt terribly, and she could not help but feel a little afraid.What would she do if Gerald was indeed Mr. Crawford?!To be honest, Alice had had the urge to leave her dormitory and rush to Gerald’s dormitory before she held Gerald in her ar

He was not holding his cell phone firmly, and it fell to the ground with a bang, and his cell phone shattered immediately!Gerald had already had this cell phone for more than two to three years, but he had always been very unwilling to change it.At this moment, Gerald felt a little dumbfounded as he picked up the cell phone from the ground.The woman hurriedly said, “I am sorry! I am really sorry, handsome! I did not mean it. I will compensate you for your cell phone!”Gerald smiled slightly before he said, “It’s okay, it’s okay. I will just bring it to the shop to try and repair it. Eh?!”However, Gerald was stunned as soon as he saw the woman standing before him.The woman was also taken aback.“It’s you?”“Oh, it’s you!”Both parties exclaimed in surprise at the same time.The woman in front of Gerald looked to be about thirty years old. She was dressed very elegantly and she had long hair, fair skin, a very good figure, and an exquisite face. She was definitely the kind

“Are you the general manager here, Miss Thornton?”Gerald couldn’t hide his shocked expression as he posed Wynn the question. With just a glance at her demeanor, he felt her overbearing female presence, and never before had he felt an aura as potent as this.“Why? Do I not seem like one to you?”Wynn drove along, smirking as she looked at Gerald through the rear-view mirror.“Oh, by the way, you should stop referring to me as ‘miss.’ It makes me sound old. Since I’m only ten years older than you, just call me by my name!”Wynn frowned, looking grumpy.“Alright then, I won’t call you Miss Thornton anymore!” Gerald nodded.“Pfft!”Wynn somehow seemed amused by Gerald’s reply, and she let out a hearty laugh.Gerald initially wanted to have a conversation about Wynn and her family, thanks to a lingering doubt that had been floating at the back of his mind for a while—Minnie’s last name was Thornton.It made Gerald wonder if Wynn had brought up the child all by herself.But since

Since when did he become the most wicked youngster in Mayberry?“Well…of course I’ve heard of him! But I’ve only heard of the good things!” Gerald’s face flushed beet red in embarrassment.“What do you mean by good things? Don’t you know how businesses work? Some time ago, Gerald invested a large amount of capital into Mayberry’s major enterprises. It might have seemed like a power move, but many other businesses in the Mayberry community were screwed as well, no thanks to him. The businesses that received a sudden injection of funds underwent some over-rapid development, disrupting the business community’s balance. Of course, it also posed an enormous challenge to second and third-tier enterprises like us! Many people from the business community hate him to the bone!”Wynn was done talking. Gerald lowered his cutlery and rubbed his nose.Of course, he knew all about those massive investments Wynn was talking about. He represented his sister while investing in those projects, inclu

Now, which socially successful woman didn’t have a man behind her back?After hearing about Wynn’s significant other, Gerald, for no apparent reason, felt a fleeting sense of disappointment.He wished to help Wynn, not just because she was pretty, but also for her child, Minnie, the little girl he had started to find favor in.Perhaps it was because he saved Minnie’s life. It gave him a sense of fatherhood, where he automatically felt the sense of paternal affection each time they met.Things, however, seemed to be more complicated than initially thought.Wynn probably didn’t require his help at all.As for his disappointment, it was because Gerald really thought Wynn was that type of woman. Why then would Minnie say that a man had been coming to look for her!It was someone else’s private life anyway, and it was none of his business.So after buying Minnie her new toy, Gerald brought her back to the neighborhood.Without explanation, Minnie abruptly grabbed Gerald’s arm. He d

To be frank, everything happened due to the things that he did without much consideration, which led to a countless chain reaction of bad repercussions.When Gerald witnessed Wynn being assaulted, he also felt some self-loathing inside, and all of a sudden, his blood boiled.“F*ck, I understand now. Wynn, he’s the sugar baby you’ve been feeding, right? How dare you have the balls to hit me! I’m Damien-f*cking-Rye! Just wait and see, kid, I’m going to skin you alive!”Damien was still cursing at Gerald as blood gushed down his face.Gerald was not afraid of him. He ran up to him, ready to swing his stool.Growing up in his hometown, Gerald has suffered all kinds of hardships. He used to be poor and timid, but he was quite strong.As things started to escalate, Damien dared not stall any longer.He was then continuously smacked with a stool as he wailed in pain. In the end, he managed to get to the door and fled.“Miss Thornton! Are you okay?”Gerald threw down his stool and app

“Geez! I wonder who messed with Damien Rye, I guess it won’t end well for that person today!”The taxi driver was clearly in shock while he was driving.It was apparent that he knew Damien Rye and had heard of his name before.Gerald was a little confused. “Who is Damien Rye and where did he come from? Is he more powerful even than Flynn Lexington from Mayberry Commercial Street?”Gerald asked the driver.After taking a peek at the back of the car, it seemed like Damien did not follow them. Gerald let out a sigh of relief.“Ahem, how do I put it… Flynn Lexington is indeed a powerful figure in Mayberry, he has the entire Mayberry International Inc. behind his back. As for Damien Rye, he’s from the Rye family, one the wealthiest families in Mayberry. He’s the cousin of Henry Rye, the former head of Rye Group. Although Mayberry International Inc. is the first, it’s still a foreign company that has been established in Mayberry for just over ten years. On the other hand, Rye Group is

The mall was crowded.Gerald strolled around, not knowing which brand to buy.He just needed a sturdy phone.In the end, his eyes were locked on a phone model. It was of extremely good quality with a price tag of 2830 dollars.It was arguably an expensive phone.“Miss, may I have a closer look on that new phone? Thanks!”Gerald politely asked the saleswoman.The saleswoman had seen Gerald searching around for almost half a day. From the way Gerald was dressed, she knew he would probably pick a cheaper phone.However, she thought he was just trying to save face.Since he was walking around in a well-known mall, the saleswoman thought Gerald was here pretending to look around. Then, she expected him to act as if the phone was not what he wanted and he would instead buy some 50-dollar miscellaneous unbranded phone and slip away.She had seen too many such people.When the shabby-looking Gerald walked towards her store, she looked down on him.She was surprised when Gerald said

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! Speaking of which, if you’re already thinking about killing me t
