Chapter 2364
The Secretly Rich Man
Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2364 âSo⦠Once we find a Divine Fruit tree, we should be able to locate any witch descendants if they still exist, correct? Following that, we should be able to easily locate Yearning Island! Did I get that right?â
replied Gerald with a nod.
âThatâs the best-case scenario, yes, but do keep in mind that the witches could have completely been exterminated back then⦠After all, I havenât heard any new information about them outside my ancient books!â said Walter with a sigh.
âKnowing that thereâs a chance of success is already good enough for me,â replied Gerald with a smile.
Nodding in response, Walter couldnât help but sigh again as he said, ââ¦While I know youâll be returning to Weston soon, I do wonder if youâve thought about my daughterâs situation⦠Though itâs true that I know another possible method, I wouldnât be this persistent with you if that method was easily achievable! â
ââ¦Huh? Come again? Thereâs another method?â replied the surprised Gerald.
âWell⦠yes, but if I go along with that plan, the Zemans will have to pay a massive price⦠Regardless, since you now know about this, I may a s well give you the full story. You see, thereâs a creature known as the Redflame Dragon, and I believe that its blood can help us expel Miaâs cold poison⦠Either way, many from the older generationsâincluding my ancestorsâhave attempted to slay it for personal reasons.
Unsurprisingly, this resulted in many deaths from all the participating families.â
âTo prevent further bloodshed, my grandfatherâs generation made a rule that forbade any Zemans from looking into news regarding the Redflame Dragon⦠Anyone who defied the rule would automatically be disowned, which is why I shouldnât have told you about all this in the first placeâ¦â muttered Walter with a helpless smile.
ââ¦I see⦠itâs honestly my first time hearing about the Redflame Dragon,â replied Gerald, sounding rather interested.
âWell, the creature lives deep underground, and most major cultivating forces have attempted to hunt it down from ancient times. After all, the Redflame Dragonâs blood is said to be able to enhance oneâs cultivation. Aside from that, itâs also said that there are saintly ruins in the underground cave that it dwells in. As the rumors go, divine cultivation methods are hidden in thereâ¦â explained Walter.
ââ¦Oh? That sounds similar to the Guardian Beast in Weston!â exclaimed Gerald with a nod.
âIn a way, I agree. Regardless, itâs extremely difficult to even get to the Redflame Dragon⦠Many lives have been lost from the journey there alone! â replied Walter as he shook his head.
ââ¦What if we try getting to the dragon together, Uncle Zeman? Though my girlfriend is still missing, Iâve sworn to myself that Iâd never get married to anyone else! Besides, youâve already helped me a lot so I canât bring myself to just allow Mia to die from the cold poison⦠Either way, letâs try taking the dragon out first! If that really doesnât work, then weâll just need to find another way later on!â proposed Gerald. 1 Gerald, for one, knew that his Herculean Primordial Spirit would protect him if any critical moments showed up, even if he hadnât fully mastered it yet. Whatever the case was, he wasnât going to let Mia die without a fight!
Upon hearing Geraldâs statement, Walter couldnât help but look at Gerald in awe as he asked, âAreâ¦
you truly willing to give it a shot? If so, the truth is, Iâve been preparing to deal with the dragon for many years now. Iâve only been holding back since my subordinates keep dissuading me⦠With you by my side, however, Iâm now more confident than ever to go through with the planâ¦!â
