The Secretly Rich Man
Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1452 After casually saying that, Gerald then continued walking, not even bothering to turn around.
âAre⦠you planning to head up there, masterâ¦?â asked the old man.
âIndeed!â
âWhile itâs true that youâre quite remarkable, there are many rules to Langvern Mountain⦠If you still wish to head up there, why not wait here for a while? After all, itâll soon be my familyâs turnâthe Sherwinsâto head up there! Why not go with us?â suggested the old man.
Hearing that, Gerald then thought, âThatâs not a bad suggestion. Since theyâre planning to go visit Master Gerald Crawford anyway, I may as well follow them. After all, itâll be easier to do that compared to fighting my way in. Still, I wonder how capable that master truly isâ¦â
Seeing Gerald nod in agreement, the old man then said, âItâs settled, then! Speaking of which, I go by Terrance Sherwin! Itâs a pleasure to meet you, master!â
After exchanging pleasantries and casually talking about a few other things, Gerald and the trio entered Langvern Church together.
From what the Terrance had told Gerald, the reason why this place was so lively now was because not too long ago, a supposedly authentic video of an old man controlling and riding a swordâthat flew through the forest and even across a riverâsuddenly began spreading around the inner circles of powerful people in the business field.
What more, the old man apparently cured a rich businessman as well. Due to that, he ended up getting extremely famous.
Following that, he took in a few disciples, and that was around the time the business was established.
Things then went smoothly for a while. A few days ago, however, the old man suddenly announced that he was willing to take in a few more disciples, though they would first have to be personally assessed by him.
All that eventually led to the current turn of events.
After hearing Terranceâs explanation, it was now evident to Gerald that most of the people here had come in hope of becoming one of the masterâs new disciples.
Regardless, the four people were only a few steps in when they saw a person being driven out while a voice shouted, âSave me the effort and just leave! With such limited talent and quite worrying levels of intelligence, I simply canât accept you as my disciple!â
Naturally, the person who was driven out looked rather dispirited.
Whatever the case was, Gerald quickly noticed that the churchâs large hall had now been modified to look like an examination hall of sorts.
He also saw several young people from different families respectfully waiting to be assessed.
It wasnât long after before a few young men and women walked over to them before saying, âPerla!
Youâre here! Hurry on over!â
After greeting Perla, they then turned to look at the old man before greeting, âItâs nice to meet you too, Mr. Sherwin!â
Following that, one of the men in the group then nervously said, âSay, Perla, did you know that up till this point, nobodyâs succeeded in becoming the masterâs disciple? Master Crawfordâs conditions truly are strict!â
âI know right? Speaking of which, Perla, who is he? Is he your boyfriend?â asked a woman from the group. If it wasnât evident enough by this point, everyone from the group was pretty well acquainted with Perla.
ââ¦What? Of course not! Heâs just here to pay Master Crawford a visit!â replied Perla in slight embarrassment.
âI didnât come here to pay him a visit. Iâm just here to look for some things!â replied Gerald casually.
Regardless, he had been observing Master Crawford for a while now, and though there were undoubtedly traces of essential qi coming from his body, the essential qi fluctuated rather frequently. In other words, it was sometimes strong and other times weak, a phenomenon that was quite peculiar to Gerald. After all, that was a trait that those from cryptic families tended to have. If that was the case, then Master Crawford definitely wasnât a true trainer who had trained himself to achieve spiritual enlightenment.
ââ¦Is he truly capable of controlling swords and flying on themâ¦?â muttered Gerald to himself, now clearly doubtful about what Terrance had earlier told him.
It was at that moment when Master Crawfordâs voice could be heard asking, âWhatâs all this noise about, then?â
Those from Perlaâs group had been speaking quite loudly, which was why Master Crawford was now looking at them with a rather bleak expression on his face.
âApologies, Master Crawford, but this man here just doubted your strength!â said Perla as she pointed at Gerald while smiling smugly.
Hearing that, Terrance was instantly stunned. However, that feeling quickly turned to anger as he shouted, âPerla! What on earth are you talking about?!â
While it was true that anyone who had witnessed Geraldâs performance earlier would feel that he was way stronger than Master Crawford, Perla was simply being too unruly! She didnât even seem to care about the implication of her statement!
âPowerful, arenât you? If youâre so powerful then go out there and have a real fight! Letâs see how long youâll last against an exceptional man like Master Crawford!â Perla thought to herself.
