The place was getting more and more crowded.Damien Rye was also getting more dumbfounded.He was the one who ordered his men to go after Gerald, and as a result, almost half of Mayberry, be it the military, or government officials, or even the business higher-ups came here instead.Even his very own cousin, Henry Rye was at the scene. He was deeply embarrassed.On the other hand, Gerald could not stay any longer after being surrounded by so many people.If he stayed, his identity would definitely be exposed.Moreover, the driver was still unconscious and no one was taking care of him. He approached the group of bodyguards and then instructed Flynn Lexington, who had just arrived, to do something about it.They immediately drove the car, bypassing the crowd, and sent the driver to the hospital.As for the rest of the matter, Gerald believed that Flynn would take care of it.“Damn, they’re all really here!”Hayward and the others finally managed to squeeze through the crowd af
Hayward had returned to the crowd with glee as the crowd looked at him with awe-filled eyes.“Alright, Mr Lexington just told me that we shouldn’t be staying here, something big might happen later, so I think we’d better retreat first!”Hayward smiled.“Yeah, yeah, anything you say Hayward!”The crowd nodded and then left in a hurry. The embarrassment that Hayward felt after being proven wrong by Gerald earlier, all vanished at that point.Compared to Hayward, Gerald could not even be considered humane.Speaking about Gerald…He had already sent the good-willed driver to the hospital.As for the matter which he informed Flynn Lexington about, he told him to look after the driver’s family and sent over a sum of money.To show his gratitude.As for Queta’s family, Gerald was thinking of going back after Flynn had completely settled the matter.Just as Gerald was struggling to decide about where to head next.Suddenly, he saw someone in the class group chat tagging all the mem
The way Felicity dressed herself up today was not the same as how she used to. She used to dress like a goddess to give off a flirtatious charm, but now her dressing seemed more mature and elegant.Frankly speaking, as Felicity was already very beautiful to begin with, she looked even more attractive now.Gerald was awestruck.As for Felicity, she did not expect her career to be so successful.Sometimes, it really was just a matter of opportunity.If it was not for Ordinary Man, she might have still stayed as a small, anonymous, live-streamer.But now, such a big transformation has taken place in just a matter of a few months.The feeling of being admired by many was simply amazing.Moreover, once people had achieved certain heights, their personalities would also somehow change. Felicity was much more aloof and colder than before.In the past, when she saw fans greeting her, Felicity would greet them with a smile. Now, she ignored them.She opened the door to let the student
Benjamin and Harper were not too sure about Gerald’s strength. They could not help but feel that he was actually very powerful.These people were obviously attempting to stir up trouble.Naturally, they felt unhappy and reluctant when they saw everyone mocking Gerald.“Oh, Benjamin, and Harper, what is the matter? It’s the opening day of Felicity’s studio. Are you both going to cause trouble instead of helping out?”The female classmate sneered as she turned a cold shoulder.“You!”“Forget it, Benjamin, Harper. Don’t worry. I will just do it!”Gerald replied with a wry smile on his face, not wanting Benjamin and Harper to offend them because of this trivial matter.It wasn’t worth to slap them in the face by revealing his identity now. Gerald felt the method only too vulgar.What would he be trying to prove?Hah!It was why he would rather turn the big problems into small ones and the small ones into no issues at all. It was just a trivial matter after all.Gerald went to c
It was only natural that Felicity was surprised.Fuck! She had never mentioned this matter to her roommates before. So, how did Gerald find out about the red envelope Jersey sent to her in private?She did not say anything to anyone, aside from Brother Ordinary Man.“Ahhh?”Gerald panicked for a moment when faced with Felicity’s question.He really didn’t understand how Felicity could have been that cruel, and as a result, he couldn’t stop himself from interfering, merely blurting out everything that was on his mind. Then, he suddenly remembered that Felicity told him all these on his second WeChat account.“Well… when I was watching your live broadcast one night, I saw Jersey talking to you about some red envelopes that he sent in private. So, at that time, I thought he must have been sending them to you in private!”Gerald hastily made up some gibberish.Felicity, nonetheless, felt a little more relieved.Yvonne, who was standing aside, sneered. “Hahaha! Gerald, I really
“Felicity, don’t be nervous. Explain yourself to Ordinary Man immediately!”Yvonne advised her.“Which car should I get into?”At that moment, Gerald stepped outside once he was done with his work.He saw that there were many cars parked in front of him. He could not help but ask Yvonne since she was the one who asked him to stay for the clean-up.‘Does she want me to hail a taxi back just like the last time?’“You can just get into any car you want. Don’t you notice that Felicity is feeling troubled? You’re just so dim-witted, good-for-nothing!” Yvonne scolded him impatiently. “Yvonne, don’t bother him. Help me think of a way to reply Ordinary Man’s message quickly!’Felicity said anxiously. As they were discussing, Felicity then thought of a response. She then drafted the reply. The sound of a bell was heard. In that instance, a sharp notification tone ringed and Felicity caught it faintly. It seemed to come from a student’s phone from the car beside them.It stunne
“Felicity, if that’s the case, go and call up your seniors from your company immediately. And contact Ordinary Man quickly too!”One of the girls said nervously. Since she was a girl, she became rather nervous hearing that somebody else was coming, looking for trouble and to pick a fight.Felicity sniggered. “What should I be afraid of? I need nobody. If Jake dares to come to Emperor Karaoke Bar for me, I’ll make him pay a heavy price for it. We’ve got a close friend, and even the CEO here is afraid of that friend of ours. This is our territory!” Felicity planted her arms at her waist firmly and burst into laughter. Gerald was stunned. ‘Oh gosh! Is my identity exposed?’ They were puzzled. “Who is that?” When they learned that they had a friend like that, Yvonne and the others became quite curious. Felicity boldly replied. “Let’s not talk about it anymore. I just want you to know that you’ve got nothing to be afraid of. I’m here to take care of the situation. Let’s just e
At the same time, all of a sudden, the door swung side open. “Miss Dunn, who were you referring to? Who dares to pick a fight here?” They were the bodyguards who worked at Emperor Karaoke Bar. There were five of them, and they entered the private room with Yvonne. Yvonne was quite a smart girl. When the others barged into the private room just now and got into a fight with Blondie, she sneaked away quietly and carefully as they were beating Blondie up. As the room was dark and fights were ongoing, hence nobody bothered about Yvonne. She then quickly hailed the bodyguards. The bodyguards there seemed quite sturdy. “Oh! It’s the CEO—Mr. Jotherell! Hello, Mr. Jotherell!”Unexpectedly, the bodyguards were stunned the moment Jake turned around and looked at them.“Who the hell is Mr. Jotherell? He’s the one who’s beating people up here!” The minute Yvonne saw how the bodyguards reacted, she was stunned.“What nonsense are you talking about? Does Mr. Jotherell have to trou
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
