Chapter 2435

The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2435 “I am! I learned that it was here through the news!” replied Marcel.

“The news? Then, the pills have already been taken…?” asked the professor, his eyes now widened.

“Not exactly… For context, there’s a large family here that goes by the surname of Zandt. About two months ago, Freyr, the patriarch of the Zandt family, suddenly fell sick and the media reported his symptoms. Symptoms that were identical to what one would experience from a Yinblood pellet infestation! Though others say he’s poisoned, I know for a fact that he just doesn’t have access to Yangblood pellets!” explained Marcel.

“Either way, after finding out about that, I began doing some investigating and eventually discovered that he and his family had entered the tomb of a general sometime back. There, he had come across a headless general, and many Zandts were seriously injured by it. Since they were so keen on defeating it, I’m assuming they were after Yinblood pellets that were hidden within the headless general’s body!”

added Marcel.

“Are… You absolutely sure…?” asked the professor rather skeptically.

“Well, I did use smoke poison to force one of that family’s butlers to tell me what he had overheard from a conversation among the Zandt family’s seniors, so there’s that,” replied Marcel.

“I see… Do you know where the tomb is?” asked Gerald.

“No, though it’s my current goal to locate it. The problem is, even after going through all the records about ancient tombs in Peaceton and there are a lot of ancient tombs here, I haven’t been able to identify which one the Zandts had entered. Speaking of records, you should know that my butler was assassinated on his way back to send me these documents…” muttered Marcel as he shook his head.

“It really doesn’t help that the Zandt family’s patriarch is so powerful. What’s more, his daughter is also very close to Master Trilight of the Trilight Church… It’s the only reason why I haven’t pried any further into their family. After all, if I get caught, I’ll surely die tragically!” added Marcel.

“Hold on… You said… Zandt? Is there a second young lady by the name of Fae?” asked Gerald with a slight frown.

“There is! Since her sister and father are always backing her up, she’s grown to be ruthless and arrogant!” replied Marcel.

“Huh… So we’ve already met the Zandts…” mutter Gerald with a slight chuckle.

“Now that we know all this, should we rush over and capture that old man to force him to reveal the tomb’s location?” asked Darkwind.

“Unfortunately, Mr. Darkwind, Freyr is a very stubborn and cautious man… Knowing him, Freyr wouldn’t be against committing suicide if he’s threatened! Should that happen, it’ll become even harder for us to obtain the Yinblood pellets! Before my butler passed away, he told me that all the experts had to be blindfolded when he brought them into the Zandt residence…” muttered Marcel in a dissuasive tone.

As the saying went, those who were fearless were usually the most fearsome. When it came to such people, Darkwind and Lyndon were truly brick-walled… Regardless, after a brief pause, Gerald was prompted to say, “There’s really no need to act all hastily. For one, we haven’t fully figured out the story behind the young mistress cultivating demonic essential qi. Adding that to the fact that she is allies with the Trilight Church that Marcel mentioned earlier, things could get nasty really quickly if we aren’t careful. With that said, I suggest you guys stay here for a few days. In the meantime, I’ll be disguising myself and entering the Zandt household to do some investigating of my own.”

“Why don’t I come with you?” proposed Darkwind, to which Gerald shook his head.

“I’m only going there to spy on them. In all honesty, I’m worried that if you go with me, you may not be able to control yourself and eventually start a fight. Our plan would fall to pieces by that point! With that said, you three stay here, and that’s that,” replied Gerald with a helpless chuckle.

It was late at night when Gerald made his move. From what he had been told, the Zandt manor was located near the mountains, and it covered at least eight hundred acres, making it far more magnificent than the Momingstar manor.

Either way, once he got close to the manor, Gerald immediately noticed a protective formation surrounding it. When commoners walked past this formation, the Zandts would surely be notified.

Gerald, however, was no commoner.

“You’re no regular family, that’s for sure,” scoffed Gerald with a smirk. Following that, he expertly and easily evaded the formation before continuing to sneak into the manor.
