Chapter 2472
The Secretly Rich Man
The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2472 âHer? Sheâs here too?â muttered Darkwind with a frown.
âIt looks like they really did invite half of the cultivation realm over⦠Regardless, who exactly is that eldest young mistress, Darkwind? Also, Dark Moon Biological Group? That doesnât sound like a cultivation organization at all. In fact, it sounds like the organization has only recently been established.. With that in mind, whatâs up with that?â asked Gerald who felt like his horizons had been broadened as he stared at the brightly Iit Ventiluna Manor.
âWell, as you suspected, the young mistress is from the Zachau family and theyâre not exactly a cultivation organization. Instead, theyâre a biotech company that emerged some thirty years ago.
Regardless, while itâs fair to also assume that theyâre just regular businessmen, Iâm afraid that biotech company isnât that simple. After all, among their many subordinates, three of them are experts in the Domiensch Realm! Those three have willingly worked their hardest for the company since the Dark Moon Biological Group managed to develop a spirit tincture that could be used for cultivation!â
explained Darkwind.
âWith that in mind, their influence has remained strong throughout all these years. In the process, they also made sure to scout as many advanced cultivators as they could find across the globe. Truth be told, I was scouted as well. However, I never believed that a commoner or rather, common cultivator could be capable of creating a spirit tincture for cultivation. With that in mind, I rejected the offer. That aside, it was sometime later when I heard rumors that the group was actually manipulating some resources that even the residents of the cultivation realm werenât aware of!â added Darkwind.
âAs Uncle Zeman said, the things I know about the cultivation realm are only the tip of the icebergâ¦
Despite my familyâs wealth and the fact that Iâm from Weston where so many cultivation forces group together, Iâve never even heard of the Dark Moon Biological Group till today!â muttered Gerald.
âItâs understandable, Mr. Crawford. For context, the four gates and three sects hardly ever involve themselves with the secular world. Even when they do, theyâre extremely discreet about it. What Iâm trying to say is that the Dark Moon Group is even more secretive than that! Theyâve never truly opened to the public since theyâre not a real business group! Either way, we canât underestimate the Zacchaeusâ.â
âUnlike the rest of the individuals in the Dark Moon Biological Group, their cultivation level is near unfathomable! Truth be told, I even suspected that they were the ones who had brought disaster upon my family sometime back. In the end, I simply couldnât get any evidence that they were involved in that.
Hell, they didnât seem involved with any matters in the secular world at all!â
After hearing all this, Gerald couldnât help but After hearing all this, Gerald couldnât help but say, âFor so many experts to gather in this city because of some tiny church and the generalâs tomb⦠I wonder how strong the mastermind truly is..â
A brief pause later, Gerald thought of something which prompted him to add, âRegardless, you two get some rest tonight. Letâs stay calm and refrain from taking any action against the Ventiluna Manor for now.â
âUnderstood, Mr. Crawford!â
Fast forward to later that night, Gerald returned to his room. He had earlier made up his mind that he would investigate the true strength and background of the biotech company as well as the four gates and three sects alone.Before Gerald could do a thing, however, a dark shadow suddenly bolted past his window.
Though the action was rapid, Gerald had a feeling that the individual had intentionally made his presence known.
Regardless, now frowning slightly, Gerald couldnât help but also feel slightly surprised by that personâs lightness skill. After all, had he not caught the glimpse of that person, Gerald wouldâve never been able to tell that someone was this close to him. Shaking the thought off, Gerald then began chasing after the individual and eventually, the figure finally stopped once they reached a forest clearing.
Stopping close to the person who was waiting for the boy with his arms against his back, Gerald was prompted to ask, âI admit that your cultivation is high But why did you draw me over?â
The person himself wore black clothes and had a mask that completely concealed his face, prompting Gerald to wonder if this old man was someone from the four gates and three sects.
âListen, the Dark Moon Biological Groupâs influence is immense, so I wouldnât even attempt to pry if I were you. That aside, you should also know that the mastermind behind all this is stronger than you could ever imagine. While itâs true that you possess the Herculean Primordial Spirit, being all reckless will only result in death!â replied the old man in a somewhat familiar tone.
Naturally, Gerald was surprised to hear all this, and this made him ask, âHow do you know me so well?â
âHah! I know you like the back of my hand! Regardless, your cultivation isnât high enough yet. With that in mind, if you run into Daryl now, your odds of winning are slim, at best! Your opponents are all old, calculative men, you know?â
