Chapter 2409
The Secretly Rich Man
âItâs been ages since I, Lyndon Moldell, have felt this great! Come over here!â scoffed Lyndon as he turned to look at the seven men.
âY-yes, seniorâ¦?â asked the men as they cautiously approached him.
âGive me his address so I can deal with him. Also, Iâll need you to do something for me in return.
Otherwise, I wonât help with your problem!â said Lyndon with a sneer.
Though they were startled, after thinking about it for a while, Jaxon nodded before replying, âAlright, senior! Please state your request! â
âI know youâve been ordered to guard me, so I wonât request to be set free. On the contrary, I believe my request should be simple enough to fulfill. See, while I was out training during my youth, I had a child in the secular world, and they eventually started the Moldell family who practiced secret techniques. I, for one, believe that the knowledge shouldâve been passed down the generations, but that aside⦠I want all of you to search for my descendants. If you come across any, just show them this stone tablet and tell them to meet me. I have a set of sword techniques to pass on to them!â
explained Lyndon.
Following that, he pinched his fingers together before carving some symbols on a flat stone. If the descendants the seven men came across were true Moldells, then theyâd surely be able to decipher the symbols.
âVery well, senior! We promise to do the best we can!â
âGood. Once everythingâs settled, Iâll teach all of you a set of cultivation techniques thatâll increase your odds of accessing the cultivation realm!â replied Lyndon, causing all seven of them to immediately freeze again.
After exchanging glances, they all knelt in gratitude before sharing Geraldâs location with Lyndon.
Lyndon himself then muttered, âWhat an interesting boy that Gerald must be⦠Letâs see how strong you are.â
Following that, Lyndon turned into a cloud of smoke, completely vanishing from sightâ¦

Back at the manor on Wayfair Mountain, Aiden and Leo who had been practicing the cultivation techniques that Gerald had taught them for about four hours now couldnât help but smile.
Clearly looking better than ever, Aiden was prompted to exclaim, âThese techniques are awesome!â
âIndeed! Master truly is kind to us!â replied the grinning Leo as he scratched the back of his head.
âHmm? That breathing techniqueâ¦â muttered a third voice from out of the blue.
Naturally, this made Aiden and Leo turn to face the voice and standing there, was an old man with his hands against his back! Sensing something off with the old man, Aiden was prompted to ask in a frigid tone, âWho are you?â
âThat breathing technique is very similar to the Ultimate Immobilizing Internal Skills that the Zemans use⦠Whatâs your relationship with Walter? Are you members of that family?â asked the surprised old man to the equally surprised Aiden.
True enough, they were practicing the Zeman familyâs secret technique that Walter had given to Gerald. Since it was an authentic method that would allow them to enter the cultivation realm, Aiden and Leo clearly hadnât expected the old man to recognize it through a simple glance.
Whatever the case was, Aiden eventually asked, in a careful tone, âWe arenât Zemans, but my brother is a friend of Mr. Zeman. Regardless, why are you here, old man?â
âHah! I see⦠As I suspected, Gerald is practicing authentic cultivation realm cultivation methods as well! No wonder those seven men were that terrified! They were never his match!â declared Lyndon with a laugh, completely disregarding Aidenâs question.
âHey now, donât you think itâs a bit rude to ignore me when youâve clearly trespassed into our turf?â
retorted Aiden.
âHmm? Youâre not worthy of my time. Now go get Gerald for me!â ordered Lyndon.
âHow arrogant! What kind of place do you think this is?! If you donât leave immediately, you only have yourself to blame for what Iâm about to do to you!â scoffed Aiden who was now brimming with energy in a confident tone.
