Ch. 1566..1570: The Secretly Rich Man Chapter 1566-1570
Chapter 1566
Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1566 While some of the men were still recovering from their initial shock, others were already looking at her with lustful gazes as they said, “What the hell is she doing here in Yanam? And why’s she dressed so erotically tonight?”
Yelena hadn’t been given the title of the most beautiful woman in Asia for no reason. With that said, to men like them, she was pretty much on the level of an unattainable goddess.
Regardless, due to her beauty, countless rich men had pursued her from the moment she rose to fame. While that naturally meant that several strong forces were supporting her, none of her pursuers ever really succeeded.
Looking at her, Frederick had to admit that she was extraordinarily beautiful. Leila herself cast a jealous glance at the beauty.
By this point, Yelena had realized that she was being stared at. Turning to look at the group of people gawking at her, she instantly began blushing, much to the awe of her spectators.
Yelena was only here since the main force supporting here had told her to accompany the King of the North tonight, hopefully garnering his heart in the process.
Naturally, had it been anyone else, Yelena wouldn’t have agreed with this in the least. Gerald, however, was not just a random nobody. He was the King of the North, one of the strongest people on the planet! With that said, who wouldn’t want such a hero to be their lover?
Regardless, she hadn’t expected for there to be so many people here, which explained why she was feeling so surprised.
Whatever the case was, Yelena watched as a few of the men in the group excitedly rushed forward and greeted, “I-it’s a pleasure to meet you, Goddess Yelena!”
Though they were enthusiastic, she simply turned to look at the young man resting in the hot springs again… She had seen him in a photo before, and she had to admit that he was charismatic. Now that the real deal was before her, however, Yelena felt that the photo didn’t do him justice. With nothing but Gerald in her heart and soul, it was pretty much impossible for any other men to get her attention.
Realizing that Yelena was ignoring his friend, Frederick—being the leader of the group—instantly felt humiliated. After all, nobody had ever dared not to give him face.
“Yelena, don’t you think you’re being a bit too arrogant? How could you just ignore my brothers when they rushed over to greet you?” scoffed Frederick as he walked over to her, annoyance in his tone.
In response, Yelena—who was already standing behind Gerald, her eyes reflecting how enticed she was—didn’t even bother to turn back to look at Frederick as she replied, “I’m only here tonight to accompany Mr. Crawford. With that said, no one else is worthy of my attention!”
“You…! How dare you look down on me, you btch?! I’m the one and only Frederick Lynn! Don’t tell me you don’t know who I am! Are you saying I’m less worthy than this shtty Mr. Crawford of yours? Bullsh*t!” roared the infuriated Frederick as he gnashed his teeth.
Hearing that, Yelena turned to look at the rude man with a frigid gaze as she said, “I’ve heard of you before, Young Master Lynn. However, do restrain yourself today if you don’t want to get into any trouble!”
From the looks of it, Yelena felt that these people didn’t even realize who the person in the hot springs was, which was why she was going an extra step to advise them.
Frederick, however, was having none of that.
Glaring at Gerald, Frederick reminded himself that there hadn’t been a man whom he didn’t dare offend up till this point. Adding that to Yelena’s sickening attitude toward him, Frederick decided to project all his anger onto Gerald!
‘So, you value him more than me, huh? Good! I’ll make you eat your words! Let’s see who the person with real power is now!’ Frederick thought to himself as he instantly grabbed a nearby bottle of wine…
Before pouring all of its contents into the hot springs!
Chapter 1567
Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1567 Once the bottle was empty, he scoffed before tossing the bottle onto the ground!
With glass shards now scattered around his feet, Frederick glared at Gerald, wanting to see what he would say to that.
Yelena, on the other hand, had a mortified expression on her face. After all, she knew very well who this person was!
“…Foolish!” shouted Gerald.
After placing a white towel on his face, Gerald had finally begun enjoying himself in the hot springs. Now that this buffoon had interrupted him, he was less than pleased.
“You… What the hell did you just say?! I bet you don’t know who I am yet, right?! Just so you know, my father has connections with the Saudi royal family!” roared the angered Frederick.
Silence was Gerald’s only response. After all, he could already hear the many footsteps that were swiftly approaching… and within seconds, over ten men had surrounded the area!
Looking at the person who seemed to be the group’s leader, the lavishly-dressed middle-aged man had a terrified expression on his face as he shouted, “How the hell have so many people managed to barge in?!”
Quiver slightly in his immense fear, the one who had spoken was none other than the old boss of the manor.
“Correct me if I’m wrong, but this should’ve been a quiet place for my master to rest in, right, Chairman Chac? What are all these random people doing here? Could it be that you don’t value your life?” asked Carlos—who was among the men who had run in—as he glowered at the middle-aged man.
“I-I would’ve definitely stopped them if I knew…!” whimpered Chairman Chac as he instantly began bowing repeatedly before Carlos.
Following that, he angrily turned to look at Frederick and his friends before roaring, “Who the hell let all of you in?!”
Upon hearing that, Frederick and the others suffered yet another humiliating blow… What the hell was wrong with everyone today?
First, that celebrity had ignored Frederick, and now, they were being scolded just because they wanted to enjoy a leisurely trip here!
Thankfully, Frederick had met Chairman Chac several times with his father a few years back. With that in mind, Frederick simply assumed that it was too dark for Chairman Chac to properly see his face.
While there was also a possibility that the man had forgotten about him, Frederick simply replied, “Chairman Chac, correct? I feel like you’ve forgotten who I am, but just as a refresher, my name is Frederick Lynn, and Joe Lynn is my father!”
Seeing how confidently he said that, Leila couldn’t help but look at him in admiration as he walked toward Chairman Chac, intent on shaking the middle-aged man’s hand.
In response, however, all he received was a tight slap from Chairman Chac!
“Lynn? The hell is Lynn?! Again, who the f*ck allowed all of you in?!” growled Chairman Chac.
Staring in disbelief at the middle-aged man who had just slapped him, Frederick then replied, “Chairman Chac! I remind you that Joe Lynn is my father!”
Following another slap to his other cheek, Chairman Chac then yelled, “Lynn this, Lynn that! Just get the hell out of my sight already!”
As the group of youths grew frightened when they saw the security guards inching closer to them, a voice suddenly shouted, “I’m afraid they won’t be leaving that easily!”
Turning to face the source of the voice, everyone was astonished to see that Gerald had already gotten himself dressed, and was now looking at Frederick with a faint smile.
“…G-Gerald…? You… How could this be…?” muttered the shocked Leila as she stared at the youth who had his arms against his back.
Hearing that familiar voice, the slightly taken aback Gerald then turned to face the surprised girl before replying, “…Leila? What are you doing here…?”
Chapter 1568
Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1568 The two hadn’t met each other in years…
“…Gerald… You… You know all these people…?” asked the befuddled Leila.
How was any of this possible? All these people were international dignitaries! There was no way Gerald could be acquainted with them, right?
“Them? Well, in a way…” replied Gerald rather indifferently as he turned to look at Chairman Chac.
“W-worry not, Mr. Crawford! I definitely won’t let him off that easily! I’ll teach him a good lesson for even daring to disturb your peace!” stuttered the middle-aged man—whose forehead was already drenched in sweat—while pointing at Frederick.
“C-come on! I dare you!” retorted Frederick who was honestly getting a little scared when he realized just how many guards were present.
Turning to look at Leila once more, Gerald then said, “…Since she’s an old friend of mine, I’ll let tonight’s little incident slide. However! There won’t be a next time! Now leave before I change my mind!”
After saying that, Gerald cleared his throat before adjusting his clothes a little, signifying that the night was cold and he wanted to be left alone already.
“…You… The hell do you think you are?! Do you think I’m someone you can just give orders all willy- nilly?!” shouted the devastated Frederick.
He just couldn’t believe that something like this was happening, especially when the one in power was someone close to his age! None of this felt convincing at all!
“Oh? You’re not planning to go even though I’ve allowed you to leave in one piece?” asked Gerald as he stared at Frederick with a slight frown.
“Crawford, this may be your territory, but if you’re daring enough, why don’t you come along with me to Saudi Arabia? I’ll make sure your life ends without even knowing what killed you! Mark my words!” growled Frederick whose eyes were now reddened in rage.
Seeing that things weren’t getting any better and understanding that Frederick was only going to continue getting more and more enraged, Leila simply looked helplessly at Gerald, shaking her head before saying, “That’s quite enough, Gerald. Don’t you think you’ve acted tough enough already? Do you really not know how truly powerful the Lynn family is? While I know you’re rich, the world is enormous, you know? How much of it have you even seen? I hope you realize that there are many others who are more powerful than you. Do you truly think you’ll be able to live peacefully after offending Young Master Lynn tonight?”
“Look, before I change my mind, you’d better drag your friends and that young master of yours out of here. I’ll say it right now that Yanam is no longer a peaceful place, so you better not stay here any longer!” replied Gerald who really couldn’t be bothered with them anymore.
Watching as he turned around and left, Leila’s anger instantly spiked, prompting the humiliated girl to growl, “Just who do you think you are, Gerald? Do you even know what position I have now? You have no idea who I’m acquainted with!”
Before the enraged girl could scowl any further, a young errand boy came running over to Carlos before politely saying, “There are several major dignitaries waiting at the door, master! They said that they wished to meet with a man here, and they’ve even brought along many precious gifts!”
“Major dignitaries? Who exactly are they?” asked Carlos with a frown.
“Most of them are royalties from the Middle East! As for the rest, they’re apparently nobles from South Asia!” replied the errand boy.
“…That… What?” said the shocked Leila to herself.
After the errand boy read out the names of all the dignitaries, Leila and Frederick found themselves momentarily stunned speechless.
Her face twitching from all the shock, Leila eventually managed to find her voice again as she muttered, “…Who… Who exactly is Gerald…? Why are all these bigwigs even coming over to see him…?”
Frederick himself was finally realizing what kind of person he had been messing around with earlier…
Now completely engulfed in fear, all of them instantly tried to leave.
However, before anyone could even make it past a few steps, Carlos placed his hand over Frederick’s shoulder before sneering, “Hey now, little kid. You didn’t leave when we allowed you to. What’s the rush now?”
“W-what do you want…?” stuttered Frederick with a gulp.
“Well, since it’s against the rules of the Sacrasolis Palace to kill you, I won’t do so… However…” replied Carlos as he turned to look at the hot springs where Frederick had poured the wine in earlier.
“Well, while you’re spared of the death penalty, it isn’t that easy for you to escape punishment… With that said, all of you have to drink up all the water in this pool! Otherwise, I’ll make sure I toss all of you out in completely mangled states!” added Carlos in a stern voice, a cold smile on his face.
Chapter 1569
Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1569 Not wanting to die, Frederick and the others could only obey. As they helplessly began drinking up the water in the hot springs, a sinister smile could be seen on Carlos’s face…
Fast forward to early the next morning, several people could already be seen gathered near Yanam’s thousand-year-old dragon tower.
Atop the sturdy, three-hundred-meter-tall building that touched the sky, several people could be seen tied up there… As to be expected, they were Gerald’s family members…
Aside from them, Mila was also there, though she had been tied to a stone pillar instead.
Throughout her time in captivity, Daryl had told Mila everything.
Despite having lost her memories, Mila knew for a fact that someone had been painstakingly searching for her in the past few years… With that in mind, she was eager to see whether Daryl’s opponent truly was the person whom her heart had so desperately been trying to remember this entire time…
As for Dylan, though he was a very dignified man, he was now looking at Darly as he begged, “You’ve set so many traps for Gerald… Gerald doesn’t even have any grudges against you…! Why must this end with Gerald dying?!”
“It’s useless to try persuading me out of it… It’s just his luck that destiny chose him to have such great value! If you’re going to be blaming anyone for his death then blame it on fate!” replied Daryl as he shook his head with a bitter smile on his face.
Hearing that, Mila angrily retorted, “I hope you haven’t forgotten that there are many other more powerful people keeping an eye on you, Daryl! Though I may not remember what happened between
Gerald and I, nor do I know what you truly want from him, I can say for certain that you aren’t going to be getting anything out of all this!”
“I’m afraid you’re all wrong! After eliminating Gerald today, do you think I’ll still need to fear Jaellatra?” replied Daryl as he let out a booming laugh.
At that moment, his gaze suddenly turned frigid as he looked down…
Scorn reflected in his eyes, the old man then sneered, “Speak of the devil… Looks like he’s here!”
Daryl already knew how ungodly Gerald’s strength truly was from their last encounter, and he would honestly be much more fearful without the presence of the now fully-prepared great dragon extermination spell…
A brief moment later, Gerald arrived at the top. Staring at Daryl who was sitting cross-legged on the floor, Gerald couldn’t help but sneer, “You’re on time!”
He was finally going to fight to the death against this once respectable old man… Truth be told, Gerald was still finding all this slightly strange.
Slowly opening his eyes, Daryl then looked at Gerald before replying, “I’ve already lost a great deal of my qi after our momentary battle yesterday, Gerald! With that said, I’m going to be fighting with a handicap! Even so, I believe that today’s battle will still be a great one!”
Though his eyes looked completely soulless, they somehow still managed to glint frigidly as the old man added in a spine-tingling voice, “However, don’t think you’ll be able to do as you please just because you’re a little stronger than me now! As I’ve said before, the world is a huge place, and there will always be things that you haven’t seen! Regardless, I’m going to be making a bet with you now. Essentially, if I manage to kill you today, not only will I be taking the lives of all your family members,
but I’ll also be killing the rest of the people from the Sacrasolis Palace! However, I’m also leaving you the option of killing yourself before me now! With that, I’ll at least spare the lives of the people from the Sacrasolis Palace!”
“Oh? A bet you say? Before that, allow me to remind you that we’re having this battle in the first place to resolve our grudges. Also, I’m sure you’re much better prepared today since you weren’t able to obtain a thing from me yesterday. Moving back to the bet, are you saying you want me to bet the lives of my family members and all those from the Sacrasolis Place when you clearly have tricks planned up your sleeves? I believe that it’s only fair if you suffer an equivalent loss should I win instead, no? With that said, once I end your life, I’ll be ending the lives of all the cultivating Crawfords as well. Deal?”
Upon hearing that, a hint of unease was momentarily reflected in Daryl’s eyes. However, the old man quickly recovered before coldly shouting, “I agree! With that out of the way, show me how truly powerful you are today!”
The second his sentence ended, Daryl appeared to concentrate hard for a second… and the next thing anyone knew, a bright flash could be seen! Recovering from the sudden brightness, everyone stared wide-eyed at the long, black staff that was now in Daryl’s right hand…
Pointing the staff at Gerald—as though it was a magic wand—everyone watched as it momentarily became a blur… and extended to about twenty meters away from Daryl!
With the elongated staff now rapidly rushing toward Gerald, everyone knew that the great battle was finally commencing!
Chapter 1570
Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1570 In response, Gerald stomped his foot onto the ground, causing him to fly into the air!
Wherever the elongated staff passed, loud explosions would follow as it wreaked havoc all over the place.
After a few stone pillars were smashed into nothing but rubble, all Daryl did was wave his hand slightly for the staff to begin homing in on Gerald again! It was almost as though the staff had eyes!
As more explosions could be heard, Gerald waved his own hand to block the attack!
A smile now on his face, Gerald then flicked his fingers at the staff… and within seconds, the frozen in place staff began cracking rather loudly!
Even though the staff’s tip had already exploded into a million tiny pieces, Gerald’s immense qi didn’t stop there. No, the excess qi actually began bolting all the way back to Daryl!
Taken by surprise, Daryl snapped out of it just in time for him to fly off the ground! It was barely a second later when he watched as the area he had previously been standing on get completely smashed!
The impact was so massive that two pieces of stone even ended up falling to the base of the tower!
Quickly regaining his footing, Daryl could only alternate his gaze between his now half-destroyed staff and the massive hole Gerald had left on the ground…
Utterly horrified, the old man quickly shook out of it before glaring at Gerald and growling, “What immense qi! It seems that I’ve truly underestimated you! With how things are currently going, I guess I won’t be able to defeat you with normal means, huh?”
Following a sneer, Daryl then opened his arms wide!
At that moment, two green dragons suddenly appeared above his palms, hovering there as they made an ear-piercing screech!
Following that, the skies instantly began darkening as strong gales blew wildly, sending all the previous rubble dancing madly in the air!
Anyone standing close enough to the tower was able to sense how unusual Daryl’s tactic was, and upon seeing what was happening, Carlos’s expression immediately darkened as he shouted, “That… The Double-dragon spell?!”
So this was what a real war between Chakra Kings looked like… It was simply too destructive…
After casting that spell, Daryl leaped into the sky again! The two dragons still hovering above his palms, Daryl then sneered, “In the end, you’re just a young man, Gerald! I’ll have you know that I’ve cultivated these demon powers for decades! Do you honestly think you’ll be able to endure the power of my Double-dragon spell?”
The spell itself was extremely powerful, and Daryl had spent sixty long years just to learn and refine it! Even so, from the moment he had managed to refine the spell to its fullest capacity, Daryl hadn’t found a reason to use it. After all, it was a supreme spell capable of destroying everything!
Despite how intimidating the effects of the spell were, Gerald simply looked around before smiling while shaking his head.
His hands behind his back, Gerald then replied, “…Is that it?”
Infuriated to the point where he could feel his blood boiling, Daryl glared daggers at the youth before roaring, “You… You arrogant little prick! I’ll be letting you have a taste of the full force of my Double-
dragon spell then! Enjoy being vaporized!”
Following a simple hand gesture from Daryl, an earth-shattering roar could be heard! The roar was so deafening that anyone close enough to the area had to close their ears!
Though their ears were still ringing, nobody had the time to recover in time for what came next…
With hearts skipping beats and eyes wide open, everyone present could only stare as two massive dragons suddenly popped their heads from beyond the darkened clouds…
Before one of them began charging toward Gerald!
This was way too much! It was clear as day that Daryl Crawford had been given the title of Chakra King with good reason!
