Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1468

Watching as Yin Yang nodded repeatedly, Gerald then said, “Repeat what I asked then before you answer my question!”

Gulping, Yin Yang then muttered, “Y-you asked me how I had obtained my title and why I had chosen to stay by Young Master Dun’s side…!”

Wiping the sweat off his forehead, Yin Yang then added, “Truth be told, I only managed to figure all this out about half a year after training to attain spiritual enlightenment. Mr. Crawford, did you know that the world is more exciting and amazing than anything you could’ve ever imagined? For starters, there’s a realm- no, an entire world that can be assessed by those training to attain spiritual enlightenment!

However, you should also know that many of them later choose to live and work alongside regular people! We refer to this as joining society!”

“Speaking of which, while it’s true that those who have attained spiritual enlightenment have great power and influence that could easily be used to take control over planet’s order, in an effort to keep unruly people under control, a joint organization known as the Ringmasters of Obliteration was created!

Speaking of the Ringmasters of Obliteration, they’re also the ones who regulate the ranks and titles.

With that said, those who train to attain spiritual enlightenment have to use the Appraisal Obsidian to complete an essential qi examination that will then give them their grade!”

“As for me, I’m currently in the joining society stage as a person who is training to attain spiritual enlightenment. Naturally, I have my own selfish reasons for doing this!” explained Yin Yang before pausing for a while as he observed Gerald’s expression.

“Regardless, there will be an underground ceremony in the Jenna Province in the next few days. From the rumors I’ve heard, that it’s due to a non-government organization discovering a miracle. While miracles are oftentimes extremely dangerous, they’re also very enticing. With that in mind, I came here about three months ago to lay down the foundation. After all, it’s said that among the miracles, there are some magic artifacts that are capable of destroying the world!” added Yin Yang, stating all that he knew without hiding anything.

Naturally, Gerald made sure to pay extra close attention to everything that Yin Yang said. He was truly learning a lot today, and he now realized that what Peter and Zyla had shared with him before was only the tip of the iceberg in the world of those who trained to achieve spiritual enlightenment.

Regardless, he was now lifting the veils of mysteries on his own.

As he thought about it, he recalled Peter saying that there was a big problem with his grandfather. Had his grandfather also been training to attain spiritual enlightenment…? If that was the case, then everything that had happened up till this point started to make a lot more sense. For some reason, realizing that seemed to make Gerald’s heartache the more he thought about it.

“…I see. Regardless, if I remember correctly, your name is Julian Laker, correct?” asked Gerald casually.

“It is, Mr. Crawford!” replied Julian fearfully.

“Well, since you seem to have the will to live and I know it wasn’t easy for you to get to where you currently are, I’m giving you a chance to persuade me as to why I shouldn’t kill you right now! Make it snappy!” said Gerald.

“I-if you let me live, then I, Julian Laker, will follow you and be your slave! I’ll be willing to do anything for you in return for your kindness and benevolence! I’ve seen the errors of my ways! I truly have!”

replied Julian as he immediately began kowtowing again.

Truly terrified and filled with profound respect and humility toward Gerald, everything that Julian had just said was the truth. After all, stating that Gerald was far scarier now than he had been a year ago was no exaggeration.

There wasn’t a good ending to be found by choosing to go against him.

“Very good,” said Gerald rather indifferently.

As relief washed through Julian, the terrified Manager Wafarer began kowtowing again as well as he pleaded, “I-I’m willing to become your slave as well, Mr. Crawford…!”

In response, Gerald simply lightly stepped on Manager Waferer’s head!

“Oh? Who do you even think you are? Do you truly think that you’re worthy enough to stay by my side…?”

“N-no! I was wrong for stepping out of line! Please forgive me!” cried out the terror-stricken manager.

“I’m glad you realize that. Regardless, you still haven’t answered my question. How did you get your hands on the Heavenly Horsetail Whisk?” asked Gerald.

Not daring to hide anything from Gerald anymore, Manager Waferer quickly replied, “I-it was given to me by a student…! While I came to realize that the item had great value after having someone evaluate it, the student simply asked for three hundred thousand dollars! Quite frankly, I wouldn’t have minded paying him three million dollars had he not been so adamant with that price!”

“A student? Do you know more about him?” asked Gerald with a frown.

Momentarily stunned when he heard that question, Manager Waferer quickly snapped out of it before replying, “W-well, at the time, I was curious to know how that kid had managed to get his hands on the magic artifact as well… With that said, I sent someone to tail him in secret… From what I’ve managed to gather, the student’s name is Yul and he’s a fourth-year senior studying at the Jenna Province University… He’s also in the second class of the Department of Economics and Management! While his family isn’t that well to do, he seems to be a very honest person…!”

“Yul…” murmured Gerald as a plan began forming in his mind…
