The Secretly Rich Man
Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2161
Just thinking about the hundreds of poisonous snakes in his familyâs infamous pit sent shivers down his spine.
â¦
Shaking his head, Amare knew that he had to stay focused. Tonight was his best shot at killing Gerald.
If he failed, there was a high chance that he wasnât going to be able to hunt Gerald down in time tomorrow. What more, even if he did miraculously find Gerald again then, he wouldnât be able to do anything in broad daylight unless he wanted to attract unnecessary attention to himself.
Whatever the case was, after silently touching down on the ground after leaping from the sixth floor a cold smile formed on Amareâs face as he growled, âTo think that youâd actually release your essential qi⦠Donât you know youâre being hunted down?â
With that said, Amare began bolting toward the direction where he had sensed the essential qi. With how fast he was, he was barely even visible, and anyone he passed wouldâve only been able to sense a cold breeze passing byâ¦
Gerald himself was already standing in an open area while puffing a cigarette, the cigaretteâs smoke looking particularly conspicuous in the darkening skyâ¦
The youth had learned about this place from Ichiro from one of their casual conversations. Apparently, this area had been bought by the war department to build a new training ground. However, due to some issues, the project had been suspended till this very day. Regardless, since this piece of land was owned by the war department, nobody dared to come to this place. Those from the war department didnât have any reason to come all the way out here just to train either, which made this the perfect place to deal with the Crawford cultivator.
Either way, it wasnât long after before Gerald felt someone closing in at rapid speeds, prompting him to mutter, âWell arenât you a fast oneâ¦â
Though it was already pretty dark, with the help of the Herculean Primordial Spirit, Gerald could now see clearly in the dark. In fact, being a cultivator, he could even see the blood circulation and essential qi running through people. With that said, Gerald soon saw Amare appear not too far away from himâ¦
âGerald, right?â asked Amare as he stared at the youth. Since Gerald had already released his essential qi, Amare saw no reason to hide his anymore either.
Watching as Amare released his own essential qi, Gerald simply crossed his arms before calmly replying, âThat, I am.â
âYouâre just an abandoned descendant of the Crawford family, you know? If you had just lived in the secular world properly, none of us wouldâve even bothered about you. With that said, to think that you would suddenly appear and attempt to snatch Master Willâs rightful position as the heir of our family!
Due to your actions, can you really blame us for hunting you down?â scoffed Amare as he tossed his jacket off, exposing his muscular bodyâ¦
Not only was he strong in cultivation, but he also had one of the best physiques within his family. With that said, a cultivator of the same level wouldnât be his match at all, and this was proven in the many competitions within his clan that he had won over the years. Hell, it was because of his strength that Daryl had appointed him for this errand.
Regardless, upon hearing what Amare had to say, Gerald was momentarily surprised, though he quickly smiled before replying, âYou think Iâm competing against Will for that positionâ¦? Putting that aside, from what youâve said, Iâm assuming youâre here under Willâs orders. After all, Iâm pretty sure Daryl didnât allow any of you to harm me. If he finds out, I wonder if youâll be subjected to serious consequencesâ¦?â
âThat⦠That has nothing to do with you!â growled Amare as he clenched his fists tightly. Truth be told, he didnât even dare to imagine the consequence once the patriarch found out about all thisâ¦
âWell, whatever the case is, come at me. Show me how strong you Crawford cultivators can get. Then again, after beating up two of Willâs men back then, I have a feeling that youâre going to be a let down as well,â scoffed Gerald who barely felt any pressure despite being in the presence of one of the Crawford familyâs top cultivatorsâ¦
