Chapter 1399

Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1399 Shortly after, even that image disappeared, and it was then when the Mackusion’s glow slowly retracted before eventually falling back into Gerald’s palm.

“…Miss Lockland, have you any idea what the Mackusion was trying to reveal based on what it showed us earlier? Could something terrible have befallen those who participated in the pledge of the holy water…?” asked Gerald rather anxiously.

“I have a feeling that seems to be the case… Regardless, not only did the Mackusion reveal that the journey of the participants of the pledge of the holy water was anything but smooth, it also displayed Liemis’s tomb as well as your family’s manor. From what I can assume, it’s predicting that the two places aren’t at peace and something is very likely going to happen soon!” replied Zyla.

“…What? Then there’s no time to waste! Let’s head over to those places to investigate immediately”

said the shocked Gerald immediately.

“Indeed! Speaking of which, now that you have the Mackusion on hand, do take proper care of it, Gerald. Remember, it’ll help you heal your Dehlere Foundation! With that in mind, please start relying on it whenever you come face to face with strong enemies, even if you think you’re able to go against them without the Mackusion’s help!” replied Zyla in concern.

“Don’t worry, I already understand that, Zyla. Whatever the case is, the important thing now is for us to head to Liemis’s tomb as well as the Crawford Manor. Aside from that, I also wish to head to where the pledge of the holy water is being held to look for my grandpa. Though I tried as best as I could to locate him on the screen earlier, I wasn’t able to find his corpse at all! That means he could still be alive!” said Gerald with a slight frown.

Nodding in response, Zyla then replied, “Indeed. Let’s head off then!”

Though there was no time to linger there for long, Gerald was well aware that there were still a few divine artifacts in there that he had yet to properly investigate. With that in mind, he was prepared to seal the miracle with a formation—once they got out—so that he could have a better look at those artifacts in the future.

Nearing the tomb’s entrance, Gerald saw that night had fallen outside. Just as they were about to step out, however, Gerald suddenly paused before saying, “Speaking of which… Those from the Xanthos family had placed an extremely strong poison right outside the cave while all of you were inside…

While I’ve used a formation to isolate it, you probably won’t be able to resist such potent poison…”

Following that, he gently tapped Rosie’s, Jasmine’s, and Monica’s shoulders, effectively sealing their acupuncture points.

With that done, he then safely led them out of the cave.

As was expected, those from the Xanthos family had been lying in wait for them not too far from the mouth of the cave. There were over a hundred of them, and all of them were armed with guns.

Even so, Wesson clearly wasn’t expecting them to leave the cave in one piece, and this was made evident by how shocked he looked.

“…You… How could you still be alive…?” muttered Wesson.

Watching as Wesson then took a step back, a gloomy-looking youth donning black clothes—who had been standing at the side this entire time—found his eyelids twitching slightly in his surprise.

“…So you actually managed to walk out of that place alive, even after being poisoned by the Seven Monsters from Snow Mountain… How interesting…! It seems that Mr. Xanthos wasn’t kidding when he said that there’s more to you people than meets the eye! With that in mind, I guess you’ve earned the right to die by my hands!” declared the youth as he squinted his eyes slightly.

Shaking her head in resignation, Zyla simply replied, “Do you really think you can kill us…?”

“There’s no need to waste your energy trying to talk with these people, Zyla… I’ve already gotten used to their cockiness by this point… Regardless, while I’ve never heard of the Seven Monsters from Snow Mountain before, I do know that your six older siblings were all equally ignorant! Though they’ve all died by my hand, I do acknowledge that it mustn’t have been easy for you to get to your current level of training. With that in mind, I hope that you won’t continue doing evil… Elsewise, I’m afraid you’ll end up dead soon as well! You’re still young, so just head back to Snow Mountain to train yourself properly!”

advised Gerald with a bitter smile on his face.

Upon hearing that, Sloan instantly laughed aloud before smiling wickedly as he said, “You’ve gone mad, haven’t you? Open your eyes already! Who do you truly think is going to die miserably in this situation?!”

As everyone took aim at Gerald, the youth in black clothes raised his hand slightly.

Narrowing his eyes so much that they almost formed perfectly straight lines, Yvon—the youth in black —then said, “Does that mean you’re admitting to killing my six elder siblings…?”

“I am, and quite frankly, I could end your life in a second if I wanted to. Please just give up already and let us pass. I still have things to do and I really don’t see the need to slaughter all of you! Now leave while you can!” retorted Gerald who really couldn’t be bothered about them.

“Leave…? Hah! I suppose you’ve never heard about the immense reputation of the Seven Monsters! I’ll have you know I’m vastly different from them!” roared Yvon before displaying a malevolent smile that sent chills down the spines of all who saw it.

Monica and the other women even found themselves taking a few steps back in fear…
