After years of bitter rivalry, even the smallest conflict could lead to explosive consequences.

Mila was on the verge of losing it… but there was nothing she could say.

“Mila!”

Gerald had been watching from a distance for a while now. Now that Mila was losing, it was time to join the fray.

“Ah! Gerald!” Mila leaped in shock when she saw him.

He wasn’t supposed to catch her like this with her weakness in full view!

“Whoa, Mila, who’s this?” Irene looked him up and down. Seeing his plain clothes, a smile bloomed across her face. All her own friends were people of note. Mila, on the other hand, was keeping this kind of company…

And the casual way he called out to her… Did that mean that something was going on between them?

“This is my friend, Gerald. What about it?” Mila announced without reservation.

“Oho, and here I was thinking that this might be your brother-in-law, Irene!” Kenneth was holding out his hand to show off his watch, a golden Rolex, by way of challenging Gerald to a cockfi

    “What did you say? Wealthy heir, are you?! Hahaha!” Irene was thoroughly enjoying herself now.Mila had always been untouchable, beyond anyone’s reach… to think that she would have picked such an oddball as her boyfriend!What a moron.Kenneth was sneering as well. “In that case, Gerald, if I may be so bold, what sort of work do you do? Which field is your family involved in?” As he said this, he brandished his wristwatch again, as though worried people might fail to notice his Rolex.Gerald regarded the two of them coldly. “You don’t deserve to hear about my family business.”“Bwahahahahaha!” Clutching their bellies, they burst into laughter.Mila tugged gently on his shirt, pleading for him to stop talking.She had said all of that just now because she had been in a panic. She hadn’t expected Gerald to take the ball and run with it.Mila was well aware that Gerald came from modest means and was always getting bullied too. It was just that he had won a lottery later on.Still, lottery

    “Oho, you must be Kenneth’s girlfriend, Irene! My car is right over there, haha! Look all you want, it’s nothing special. Half a million, barely worth anything! After you’ve finished your inspection, let’s all go grab a bite to eat!” Saying this, Sean led them off jovially.“Hey, hey! Mila, don’t you want to see it too? Oh, that’s right… best not to, perhaps. Even if you saw it, it’s not like your boyfriend could afford one for himself. Not like Kenneth, who has a Ferrari. Also, also, Mila… Do you need some spending money? I hope you understand. If it were not for Sean offering to treat us to a meal, I’d ask Kenneth to give you guys a lift. However, since we’ll be leaving with Sean in a bit, if you need some cash for a taxi, all you need to do is ask!” Irene hugged herself and giggled.She absolutely had to capitalize on every advantage.Coming from anyone else, Mila wouldn’t be troubled. But this girl, whom she had always beaten at everything over all these years, to finally be lordin

    “Mr. Crawford, here to accompany your girlfriend for her driving test, are you?”That day, Sean had already discovered the truth about Gerald.Just imagine... Two and a half million dollars, all without breaking a sweat.That was true wealth.Sean had also heard other rumors. Although they were not directly related to the mysterious Mr. Crawford, he now knew that the manager of the Lamborghini dealership was someone of note within the Mayberry group.Even he had shown so much deference toward Gerald. It was clear that he was not your ordinary guy!“No, no… we’re both taking the test!” Although both these people had been rude to him before, seeing this well-mannered reception now, he responded with courtesy in kind.Irene and Kenneth were utterly confounded by all of this.This was Sean they were talking about?! Why was he showing such reverence for a penniless wretch like Gerald?!How could they not be surprised by this?“In that case, how about this, sir? I just so happen to be headed

    These words made Gerald feel very happy inside.“But Gerald, I feel that you are hiding something from me. That Sean does not look like an ordinary person at a single glance. Why is he so respectful to you? No, he is not only respectful but it seems as though he is flattering you.”Mila could not take it anymore. She felt that Gerald was becoming even more and more confusing.In fact, this was exactly the reason why Gerald eventually became friends with Sean.During their entire conversation, as long as Sean did not mention it, Gerald would never say that he bought the Reventon.It made Gerald feel that he knew how to act accordingly. Gerald learned about this.At this time, Gerald simply smiled before he said, “Didn’t I say this in person? I am actually a top rich second-generation. However, I really do not want to abandon my current lifestyle and friends. That is why I have always lived a low-key life. Of course, Sean has to be very polite to me!”“Mere puff!” Mila smiled as s

    Alice was always a little awkward whenever she saw Gerald now.After all, who was the person who looked down on Gerald the most in the past? It was Alice.Now, the pathetic pauper that she used to despise could most likely be a rich young master.His identity and status were not that simple.In short, Gerald could be a really incredible figure.Alice wanted to get closer to him.“Well, it is Hayley’s birthday today!” Gerald replied as he smiled.He was not a person who held a grudge, let alone seek revenge on a person who was making peace with him.Hayley and Harper looked at the both of them before exchanging glances with one another. It seemed as though they wanted to matchmake them on purpose.At this time, they greeted everyone and welcomed them into the room in the manor.When they were allocating seats, Harper and Hayley had already obviously discussed this in advance. They deliberately arranged for Alice and Gerald to be seated together.As for Benjamin and the others

    ”It’s okay, cousin brother. Just sit down. After all, I really cannot bring myself to announce the big surprise today if you are not here!”Jacelyn smiled and her eyes suddenly turned cold as she glanced at Gerald who was in the room with them.She had a smug and arrogant look on her face.“Jacelyn, what the hell is this big surprise? You have already been keeping us in suspense for such a long time. Hurry up and tell us!”“Yes, what is it about?”All of her roommates were already impatient.When Gerald saw that Jacelyn’s gaze was fixed on him, he suddenly understood something.Oh my! Was the so-called big surprise directly related to him?“Of course! I am going to tell everyone about it now!”Jacelyn smiled triumphantly as Danny glared coldly at Gerald.“I will start with you!”Jacelyn walked directly over to Gerald before giving him a slap across his face.He was stunned. This woman was really dying to be taught a lesson!Gerald stood up as he stared at Jacelyn.D*mn it

    The person who stood up was Hayley.At this time, she had a very complicated feeling in her heart.She only knew that Gerald was Harper’s good brother.However, she really did not expect Gerald to hide everything from them or to deceive them for so long.Therefore, she felt that it was necessary for them to tell everyone whatever she knew.And Harper was the one who told her this.“There is a woman who bought clothes for Gerald and she spent more than fifteen thousand dollars on it! In fact, the clothes that I am wearing today are the clothes that the young woman had given to Gerald. After that, Gerald gave it to Harper!”“Hayley, what are you talking about?”Harper was anxious.In fact, Harper had been joking around with Hayley in the past.He said that his brother, Gerald really had a way with women. He could get them to buy him anything that he needed without even blinking his eyes at all. He also mentioned that Gerald could have been kept by that woman. Harper joked that

    She did indeed have a good impression of Gerald because she felt that Gerald did not only have a good personality, but he was also very practical. Moreover, it seemed as though his background was not as simple as it looked.She could actually consider getting into a relationship with Gerald and the both of them could become boyfriend and girlfriend.For this reason, Alice took this initiative to approach Gerald without any hesitation at all. She wanted to draw Gerald’s attention to herself again.But the result was…Ahh! She did not want to say anything anymore!“Hayley, I am going to the washroom!”She was dumbfounded and quickly came up with an excuse to leave the room.After that, Jacelyn followed anxiously behind her.After all, she felt that she was also responsible for the reason why Alice ended up this way.No one spoke at all in the room.There was silence in the room for at least ten minutes.Finally, Harper broke the silence. “No matter what everyone thinks, deep d

    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!
