So, he agreed to go.In the afternoon, once Mr. Winters finally slept off, Gerald left for the party.It would be held in Cape Grace Hotel, somewhere around Serene Town county.Attracting investors had always been a top priority for the region, and this time, much thought had been put in to make it as grand as they could.Even many business owners of Serene Town County would be attending.Zack and Micheal arrived first since Gerald had to look after Mr. Winters.Gerald stood at the entrance, ready to enter the hotel.Beside him, a car pulled up at the parking space. A couple came out of the car, arm in arm.The woman was dressed elegantly and formally, and the man had a suit on him.“Oh my, we should’ve left earlier. Look at the time now!” complained the woman.“Hmph, why is it always my fault? You were the one taking hour upon hour to put that makeup on! My dad even called a couple of times to hurry us since Mr. Crawford will be arriving. It’ll be an embarrassment if we are

Gerald frowned, unhappy, but he walked over to their table anyway.“Whoa, Madam Lewis, is this one of your students? He looks pretty good... hey, why isn’t he in a uniform?” said a woman next to Montana.“Yeah, look, all the waiters here are in their uniforms, and he’s the only one not wearing it!”“I guess he must be the handyman then. He’ll work wherever there’s work to be done, so he should be a temporary worker.”Montana tried to find a reasonable explanation.“Haha yeah, come here, little guy, come to my side. There’s an empty seat beside me. Come sit and have a chat!”“Yeah, little cutie, don’t be shy! It’s a rare chance to dine among so many rich and young CEO today, so you’ve got to appreciate your time here!”In their late twenties, a few women saw how Gerald looked quite handsome and cute, and they tried to tease him.Montana rolled her eyes. “What are you staring at? Can’t you see that they’ve asked you to sit down?! Are you that dumb? Four years of college for not

“Huh? Miss Lewis? Why are you here?”The girl was surprised.“Morgana, why are you here at Cape Grace? Didn’t you say you were hanging out tonight with the group at Buntingford Grand Hotel?”Morgana was surprised as well.Morgana, the girl Montana chose as the class representative, and now a doctor at the county hospital!“Forget about it. The hotel is closed for a few days, so we came to Cape Grace, but it seems they have some kind of event today. Luckily, we booked early, or we wouldn’t have gotten a place!”Morgana shrugged, grumbling away.She seemed to have not noticed Gerald, who was just standing by her side.“Miss Lewis, how could you have been so careless? You’ve got red wine all over your clothes!” asked Morgana.“Hmph! Don’t even ask. I’m here for a business event, and it was all because of that bastard Gerald! He got the wine all over me!”Montana rolled her eyes at Gerald.Only then did she notice Gerald who was standing close by.“Why are you here, Gerald? Don

“Huh?”When Gerald turned around, he saw a middle-aged man hurrying toward him.They did not seem to recognize the man.Could he have known Gerald personally?Gerald stepped out of the crowd.“Damn, Gerald. Why did you go for it? Didn’t you hear how he was calling for one, Mr. Gerald?”“Haha, yeah! Aren’t you embarrassed?”The few friends from high school followed Gerald as they laughed.Even Morgana was laughing as she covered her mouth.Montana rolled her eyes again and again at Gerald.“I must have made him drunk... I’m speechless!”Montana shook her head and sighed.“Mr. Crawford, I’ve brought your car for you. It’s in Sector-C of the parking lot. Here are the keys, and the master instructed me to ask you to return early.”“I got it, Mr. Lyle. If there’s nothing else, you should head back.”Then, a boy next to Cameron stepped out and shook his head with a chuckle.“F*ck... I think he mistook him!”Gerald felt a little embarrassed.“You’re hilarious, aren’t you? You

“Congratulations, Mr. Duffy, for winning a gold keyboard worth 15,000 dollars!”The host spun the wheel again.Ding!“Congratulations to…”“…”Three prizes were sent out subsequently.Ding!“Congratulations, Mr. Jonathan Ladd! You’ve won an emerald jade bracelet worth 30,000 dollars!”“Ahh!!!”Montana was dizzy with excitement as she heard the emcee’s announcement.The audience burst into applause too.The prize alone was just a part of the raffle.More importantly, Montana could go up the stage with Jonathan, the same stage which the other big shots stood on. Besides, there were a ton of reporters on the side.Gosh!What more could a woman ask for?Montana was so elated that she even smacked Gerald on the cheek. She was just too excited, and the smack felt like it was no big deal!“Who will be the one to go home with the grand prize?”The voice of the emcee echoed loudly, and the crowd fell into a hush.As the pointer dropped, the crowd’s eyes widened in anticipation

Especially Montana, who had just been reprimanding Gerald all this while.Her eyeballs were about to drop out of her eye sockets.F*ck!She was extremely aware about Gerald’s background. He was just a mere poor pauper with no money.And who was Mr. Crawford?He was the most reputable man from Mayberry, and even more so the man who was going to change the history of Serene County.Montana would not believe that the two of them are the same person, even if she was beaten to death.However, Zack Lyle and Michael Zeke knew who Mr. Crawford was.So that meant Gerald’s identity was not a mistake.F*ck, Montana’s was completely mind blown. “Mr. Lyle, you guys must be mistaken right? You’re calling this poor b*stard Mr. Crawford?”Montana could not help but blurted out in a straightforward manner.Zack frowned slightly at the question. Looking at the wine stains on Montana’s dress, he turned to the organizers of the event with displeasure and said, “What’s going on here? How can a

After they had chatted over the phone, Gerald suddenly remembered his dad’s advice to visit his comrade from the army in Serene County. He had been back for more than a week and he had long forgotten about it.Gerald had nothing else to do at present. He then bought some gifts and headed to the upper-class area of Serene County to visit Mr. Willie Jung.The relationship between their families, as mentioned earlier, had drifted apart quite a bit after several incidents that went on in the later stage.But his dad was a very sentimental man.He did not believe that it happened, but the reality remains. As a person, how could one have no humane feelings at all?Gerald remembered the cold treatment from the Jung Family when his dad brought him along to beg them so he could go to high school six years ago.Gerald understood his dad’s feelings.But this time round, he was alone, and he came here with a different identity!He wondered if he would face the same treatment as before…As

The girl stared at Gerald, her eyes filled with curiosity.To be honest, she was somewhat looking down at Gerald when she saw the ordinary clothes Gerald was wearing. His sense of fashion was a bit countryside-like.When they heard of her question.There was a minute of awkwardness between Willie and Leia.Especially Leia.It was just a second ago that Willie said he had an urgent matter to handle and he would be having a meeting soon. They were hoping Gerald would not stay for lunch.And then her daughter jumped out of nowhere and popped this question.This made things much more difficult for Willie and Leia.If only their daughter had come out a little later, Gerald would have left by now!“Oh, Leila, have you forgotten, he’s Uncle Dylan’s kid, didn’t you two meet when you were little?”Leia said with an awkward tone.“Ah I remember, he must be Gerald, right?”The girl replied.“You still remember me, I’m Gerald! It’s been years since I’ve seen you, and you’ve gotten muc

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,
The Secretly Rich Man Chapter 2506
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
