Gerald grabbed a paper towel as he wiped the sweat off his forehead. He felt the sudden urge to relieve himself and started pacing toward the washroom.As he passed by the female’s washroom, he unexpectedly heard the woman and her daughter’s conversation as she repeatedly patted her back.“What’s wrong? Why the sudden nausea?”The woman asked worriedly.“Yeah… This naughty little boy is kicking me again!”“Oh! I told you to be more careful! I’ve always told you to pay more attention to what you do! Why did you have to mess around with a foreigner?”She frowned and scolded.“Mom, don’t say that about Jamison! Jamison isn’t just any ordinary guy. He’s a foreigner from M Country! He promised me that he would come back to look for me in three years!”Gerald, who heard this from outside, was fuming with frustration.He knew that these two women had really deceived him.It felt too good to be true, and everything was oddly in place, but the girl seemed so anxious to get married.S
As Xeno and the rest rushed in; they were welcomed to the scene of Gerald fighting with both women.The three of them were utterly shocked at the sight, quickly intervening and persuading them to stop fighting, which fortunately turned out a success.Xeno knew that if Gerald had really lost his temper, he could be really ruthless and impulsive.No. Actually, half of the woman’s face had started swelling badly after getting hit by Gerald.Xeno and the others hurriedly dragged the two women, still yelling and cursing, away from the scene.He had been given the responsibility to send them home.Sienna could not help but feel a little anxious. What was going on here?Despite feeling uneasy with the whole situation, she still got into the car with Xeno and the rest.He informed them that he would be having dinner with Gerald tonight to get some clarity on what happened.Gerald did not suffer other injuries aside from a stinging cheek from the woman’s slap.As for why he had to ven
He had barely eaten anything, and his stomach grumbled with low groans.It would also be ungracious to turn down Francesca’s kind offer; hence Gerald agreed to join them for lunch. It was then that Gerald received a call from Xeno.“F*ck! Gerald, I am so, so sorry for you. I totally understand now why the fight happened. Let alone you, I, too, felt like giving them a good beating. If it weren’t for Sienna, I would have already given it to them just now. Isn’t this simply equivalent to committing fraud?!”Seemed as though Xeno found out the truth. He was enraged and fuming mad.“Sienna and that colleague of hers have already gotten into a big argument. She wants me to apologize to you. She really trusted that colleague of hers! Who would have expected her to introduce such a piece of trash to you instead? That woman even vomited inside my car! Hmph!”Xeno couldn’t help but feel contrite.His intentions were good—introduce a girl to his buddy to give him a helping hand. On the co
“Know Aunt Lacy and her family, Gerald?”Gerald previously drove a Mercedes-Benz G500 at the hospital, and he even knew the county’s leader. It really surprised Xella.Frankly, Gerald was quite charismatic that day.That said, regardless of circumstance, Gerald was still inferior compared to Waylon and Jacky, who were standing next to her.Waylon’s family owned a huge empire. He had also started his own company and became a boss at such a young age.Although Waylon didn’t drive a car as posh as Gerald’s Mercedes Benz G500, he had higher prospects compared to Gerald.As for Jacky, Xella suspected that he was the one who helped her the last time as the deputy manager of the personnel department.He was a large organization manager, and he had very high standards in the public institution. He was also rewarded with a very high bonus and dividend at the end of the year.Plus, Jacky also owned a business.He was a handsome, eligible white-collar worker.What about Gerald? What els
A waitress yelled at the top of her lungs.“Get lost!!”A man cursed.The next thing everyone knew, the room door was kicked wide open.A group of seven or eight brawny men with buzz cuts and gold necklaces around their necks rushed into the room.Each of them had dragon-like tattoos carved over their bodies. They definitely gave off an intimidating vibe. Clad in short-sleeved shirts, they slowly looked around, staring deadly at the people inside the room at this moment.The leader of the gang had on a T-shirt and a sling pouch bag. He took a long puff before he growled in a raspy voice, “Who was the one who booked this room? I want you to move to another room now!”“Why should we do that? Who do you guys think you are?”Cindy asked angrily as she stood up. She was not afraid of them at all.“Who am I? Hah, girl. I am Warrick Yackel. If you don’t know who I am, go out on the streets and ask anyone about me!”Warrick chuckled as he threw the cigarette butt on the ground
Waylon stood up and yelled.Stunned, Warrick and his guys stopped immediately.“Young man, are you asking for a death wish too?”Warrick pranced towards Waylon, his face grim and black.“Don’t mess around with him! Don’t you know who Waylon’s father is?”Although Xella had tasted the harshest realities of the world in these few years, never had she come across anything like this before. When this incident broke out, the sense of security that she felt in Jacky was gone entirely.Looking at how things turned out, it seemed as though Waylon was handling things better compared to Jacky.Despite being clouded in fear, Xella felt the urge to reveal Waylon’s family background to scare off Warrick and his men.“Pfft! Who is he?”Before Xella could reply, Waylon grabbed her arm and motioned for her to shut up.“Xella, I told you before that I do not want to involve my father in any of my own affairs in the future. Get behind me. It’s okay. I will solve this matter!”Waylon replied.
“Who is causing trouble?” questioned the young man. When Warrick saw the young man, he was shocked. “It’s really you, Jaxon the Great! I am Warrick, and I was just hanging around the area. This is all a misunderstanding!”Jaxon had been invited to sing at a karaoke bar next to Johnsbury Bistro. He initially thought that it would not be right for him not to help Waylon at all after receiving so many favors from Waylon’s family. With that thought in mind, he decided to come over in person to take a look.“So, what should I do now then? Waylon, you’re not injured, are you?”Jaxon asked.“I am not injured, brother! No worries.”Waylon walked over to Jaxon and took out a cigarette before handing it over to Jaxon as he lit it up for him.Just as Jaxon had a few drags of the cigarette, it fell right to the ground. “Brother, what’s wrong?”Waylon asked curiously.“You… you are here?”Jaxon asked as he looked at Gerald, who was sitting down at the table in astonishment.He was v
Jaxon’s respectful attitude toward Gerald surprised everyone. This was especially so for Xella, who was now looking at Gerald with a completely different expression on her face. She had used to think that Gerald only had personal connections with average statused people. To think that he knew such a powerful and reputable individual as Jaxon! What more, Jaxon had even taught the people who were planning to beat Gerald up a lesson. He didn’t give them any face at all! “What a great coincidence! If it weren’t for you, I would already have been beaten up!” said Gerald with a wry smile on his face. He had seen through Waylon’s act. If his guess was correct, then everything that had happened was orchestrated by Waylon. That was probably also the reason why both Waylon and Milo were laughing between themselves earlier. Jaxon simply bowed slightly at Gerald’s comment. What an awkward meal today… Gerald himself already felt full. As for Francesca, after seeing Waylon getting be
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
