The Secretly Rich Man
Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2053
In the end, this wasnât Weston, and he wasnât some superhero obligated to save the world. With that in mind, Gerald reminded himself that he didnât need to meddle in their business and land himself in unnecessary trouble⦠Shortly after he had entered the supermarket, however, Gerald ended up freezing again. Thinking back, his Herculean Primordial Spirit would only react to dangerous fights between cultivators. With that in mind, this wasnât a normal fight at allâ¦!
Realizing that, Gerald then walked to the counter and said, âA pack of cigarettes. And make it snappy.â
After paying for his purchase, he then walked over to where the fight was happening. If there really were cultivators staying nearby, it would do him good to silently assess the situation, with emphasis on the âsilentlyâ. Until he knew who he was dealing with, Gerald preferred remaining hiddenâ¦
Whatever the case was, Gerald stuck close to the wall as he made his way down the small, dark alley between the supermarket and hotel. Contrary to the hotelâs luxurious-looking front, construction waste lay everywhere behind it.
Regardless, the more he inched his way to the back, the more motionâfrom the fightâhe could feel.
Still, now that he was much closer, he couldnât help but feel that these people werenât exactly cultivators. That, however, didnât mean that they were weak.
Either way, once he got to a corner, Gerald slowly peeked out⦠and from where he stood, he was able to see a man and woman fighting amongst the construction waste. From what he could tell, the man had the upper hand, and the woman wasnât going to be able to last much longerâ¦
Still, since they werenât cultivators, he didnât feel the need to get himself involved in the fight. With that in mind, he lit another cigarette, prepared to return to his hotel after watching for a while longerâ¦
Just as he was about to leave, however, he suddenly realized that the woman in battle looked awfully familiar⦠As Gerald pondered where he had met her before, her chest area was momentarily illuminated by moonlight, causing something hanging from her neck to glint⦠and the second he saw the pendant she was wearing, Geraldâs jaw instantly dropped. It was the woman from the Seadom tribe! Now that he knew who she was, he immediately tossed his cigarette away and dashed toward the scene!
He had already thought long and hard about how to approach her to no avail. With that in mind, now that this opportunity was presenting itself, he was definitely grabbing it.
Though he had been at least thirty feet away from the two at the start, it barely took him a second to intercept the man who was about to stab a dagger right into the womanâs chest!
The woman herself already had her eyes closed by that point, knowing full well that she didnât have the strength to fight back anymore. However, instead of searing pain, she was instead greeted by the feeling of a massive gust of wind that stopped right before herâ¦
Following a soft, âthud,â the woman was prompted to open her eyes⦠and standing before her, was a man who had successfully deflected the attack!
Though she was confused, she snapped out of it when the manâthat she had been fightingâfrowned before growling, âWho the hell are you? Why are you meddling in our affairs?â
Ignoring him, Gerald simply spread his arms out before glancing at the woman and saying, âStay behind me.â
