Semua Bab The Secretly Rich Man: Bab 1491 - Bab 1500

Though nobody really knew why Master Waddys wanted to meet up with Gerald alone, it was at least evident that he greatly disliked him. Still, knowing that made several of the people there relieved. After all, things had gone just as they had anticipated. While Yaakov—being a typical family master—was usually solemn and serious whenever he dealt with things, he did have one well-known shortcoming, and it was related to how he treated his children. He would only ever request for marriages—on his children’s behalf—from families of equal social ranks. With that said, to him—at least for the moment—only an outstanding person like Stetson was worthy of his daughter. It was also the reason why he couldn’t help himself from attempting to eliminate any unsuitable suitors who were trying to go after his daughter. Regardless, after being led to a lake—that was located in the backyard—Yaakov instantly said, “So, what are your conditions?” “Conditions?” asked Gerald as he looked at Yaak

“If I may, who exactly are you, sir?” asked Gerald as he looked up and narrowed his eyes at the evilly grinning man. From what he could sense, this person’s training aura was considerably more powerful than Julian’s. With that said, Gerald really couldn’t help but have a higher opinion of the old man. Truth be told, ever since Gerald exited the Waddys family manor, he had felt the presence of a person who had trained to attain spiritual enlightenment. However, since there were too many people there—due to the underground festival—and the person didn’t seem to be interested in revealing themself at the time, Gerald simply ignored them. However, when the old man released his essential qi earlier, it instantly became obvious to Gerald that the old man wanted him to follow him. With that in mind, Gerald—who wanted to see what that person wanted from him—simply followed him here, eventually leading to the current situation. Whatever the case was, the old man simply ignored Gerald’s

‘I’ve been living my life unhindered all this while…! With that said, there’s no way I’d lose against this immature and inexperienced young man! It’s simply impossible!’ Carlos thought to himself, an extremely hideous expression on his face as he stretched his palm out! As five long and black fingernails extended from his palm, Carlos roared, “To hell with you!” “You bore me,” replied Gerald as he looked at the incoming attack before shaking his head, a wry smile on his face. Before Carlos could even inflict any damage, he stared wide-eyed as Gerald gently flicked a finger in his direction… sending a beam of light flying toward him! Unable to evade in time, the golden light rammed right into his darkness, completely countering Carlos’s attack as an explosive sound was heard! The next thing the old man knew, he was flying backward like a crumpled kite. A huge chunk of his clothes—around his chest area—had been shredded to pieces and blood was already gushing out his mouth like

While the men had been ridiculing him just seconds ago—as they watched the willow leaf hover in mid-air—they now found themselves feeling astonished beyond words as the leaf suddenly began emitting a golden light! Not only that, but it was also slowly increasing in size! Soon enough, an explosive sound was heard and for some ungodly reason, the willow leaf had turned into a gigantic leaf blade! “…W-what?!” shouted the eight people as they stared at the blade that was somehow emitting a murderous aura. Though their immediate response was to book it, it was far too late for any of them. With a single swift swipe, the blade sliced through all eight of their necks… and the next thing the wide-eyed men knew, their heads were already on the ground! Now utterly frightened, Yule found himself screaming in horror at the eight freshly decapitated heads! However, he quickly stopped himself before gulping down hard. Despite being the best of the best, the eight men had been decapitated

Xylon—the middle-aged man standing upfront—instantly grew curious when he saw how young Gerald actually was. After all, despite the fact that his son kept addressing him by ‘master’ this entire time, Xylon simply couldn’t imagine that young man as anything other than completely ordinary. Could his son have somehow been mistaken…? While Xylon found himself thinking that, he still shook hands with Gerald rather friendlily in order to express his gratitude. However, after having a few more exchanges with Gerald, Xylon—being an elder—couldn’t help but start feeling slightly contemptuous toward him. Regardless, after inviting him in for a meal—and finishing it—Xylon brought Gerald and the others for a walk around the manor to show their new master around. During the meal, Xylon had mentioned a large and strong stone called the Zekterite, and it was evident that he was keen on showing it off. Upon arriving before the stone, Xylon chuckled before declaring, “This is the Zekterite
