Chapter 1459
“…I simply came today to widen my knowledge and meet up with old acquaintances, Young Master Dun. I wouldn’t dream of ruining your fun!” replied Terrance, clearly suffering in silence. “Hahaha! I’m glad to hear that! Still, a little bird told me that after you went bankrupt half a year ago, you’ve been looking far and wide for exceptional masters! I do wonder if you’ve found any… Quite frankly, the Duns have also been helping you locate the true criminal behind the scenes this entire time! Once we find the culprits, we’ll definitely avenge you!” declared Federico coldly. “I appreciate you going through all that trouble!” replied Terrance who was still trying his best to suppress his anger as the corners of his mouth twitched erratically. “There’s no need to thank me! It’s what a junior should do for his senior anyway!” said Federico before roaring out in laughter and walking into the venue. As the black-robed man followed Federico in, he made sure to take a few glances at Geral
Chapter 1460
From how much they were idolizing Federico, it was clear that those from within that group viewed anyone else as nothing but idiots. Regardless, after hearing them scowl at her master, Perla angrily retorted, “And just who are you to tell others to move aside?” “Who am I? Who are you? Look, just step aside already! We really can’t take photographs of Young Master Dun from here! Can’t you even do that?!” “Yeah! What, do you think you’re rich or something? Go ahead and compete with our Young Master Dun if you dare, then!” retorted the fanatic women contemptuously. “You…!” growled Perla who was now brimming with rage. “Just let them say what they want. Regardless, help me shout out a price, Mr. Sherwin,” said Gerald as he turned to look at Terrance when he saw that nobody else was attempting to raise the bid. “Very well, Master Crawford. How much do you intend to raise the bid by?” asked Terrance. Hearing that, Gerald lifted a single finger. Frowning slightly, Terrance the

Upon hearing that, Federico paused for a moment before sneering, “…I understand, Master! I know what I have to do after this!” He already had a plan in mind. Regardless, since Gerald had placed such a high bid, nobody else was willing to even compete with him. Even Federico’s fans were now staring at Gerald in surprise. After all, none of them had expected that this plain-looking person would actually own this much money! Now that they had witnessed how rich he was, some of them were already winking at him, desperately trying to gain his affection. Of course, when had such tactics ever worked on Gerald? Either way, while money clearly was no issue for him, Gerald wasn’t one to spend on a whim. He was only willing to spend so much on the Heavenly Horsetail Whisk since he wanted to ask the organizer of the auction where and how he had gotten his hands on the whisk. With that, he requested to see the manager once the event was over. Upon hearing that, the service staff immed

After the door to the room was opened, Gerald, Terrance, and the others walked in. The second they entered, they were immediately greeted by the sight of Federico sitting at the main seat. A broad smile on his face as he stood up, Federico then said, “Why hello there, Uncle Sherwin! I hadn’t expected to meet you again so soon!” “So you’re behind all this, Federico!” growled Terrance angrily. “Now, now, there’s no need to get angry, Uncle Sherwin! Aside from wanting to reminisce with you, I also called you over today since I wanted to greet and extend my warmest welcome to Mr. Crawford!” replied Federico. Following that, he clapped his hands before ordering, “Serve the tea to the guests!” Shortly after, a waitress walked over with a teapot in hand. However, as soon as the teapot’s cap was removed, it was revealed there was only tea powder inside! What more, the powder itself smelled extremely unpleasant! From that alone, it was obvious that Federico was saying that they were
Chapter 1463
Following that, both Federico and Manager Wafarer laughed out loud. Even the waitress—who had been serving the dishes—only seemed to stare coldly at their situation. After all, being targeted by Federico was akin to being personally selected by the devil to undergo an extremely tragic ending… “Surely you jest, Young Master Dun. You can’t be serious about buying it for only ten dollars, can you?” replied Gerald, unsure of where Federico was even getting all this confidence. Was it just because he had the black-robed man by his side…? “I assure you that I’m dead serious about that! Nothing more, and nothing less!” said Federico. “…Very well, then! I’ll agree under one condition!” replied Gerald with a smile. “State it!” “It’s simple, really. If you still wish for this deal to go through, you’ll just have to sacrifice the lives of your family members! Once you agree with that, I’ll sell you the Heavenly Horsetail Whisk for ten dollars, just as you’ve proposed. That should soun

For this person to just call out his name like that… Also, his tone suggested that he truly did know about Gerald’s past and background pretty well… “…Have we met before? I don’t think I know any masters who’ve trained to achieve spiritual enlightenment!” said Gerald in slight surprise. Upon hearing that, both the black-robed man and Federico instantly burst out laughing. “Again, you truly are as stupid as ever…! Regardless, I didn’t expect you to still be able to remain this calm even after I’ve exposed your clunky acting! Either way… Do you really wish to know who I am? I fear you’ll be overwhelmingly shocked once you know my true identity!” replied the black-robed man with a triumphant smile. After looking at the sneering Federico, Gerald then turned to face the black-robed man who was currently ridiculing him. He truly had no idea what was so funny. Regardless, while Gerald could’ve just used his divine vision to figure out who this person truly was—given how crude his bl

“Well, from what you’ve told me, I can safely say that you truly are one lucky person. Still, why the Yin Yang Master?” asked Gerald rather curiously. “Titles are usually awarded based on the receiver’s characteristics. Regardless, do you still think you’re all-powerful, Gerald?” scoffed Yin Yang. “Wouldn’t even dream about it!” replied Gerald as he shook his head. “You can stop putting that act in front of me! While I admit that you’re extremely powerful and talented—based on our previous encounter—, I’ll have you know that we had only seen a small portion of the world back then! I’ll say it right now that the true masters who control the world are those who train to attain spiritual enlightenment! With their extensive and near-incomparable power and abilities, they’re easily able to dominate the world if they wanted to! As a fun fact, know that there’s at least one person in every country who trains themselves to attain spiritual enlightenment!” “Regardless, even though I’m a
Chapter 1466
Choosing not to answer him verbally, Gerald simply mimicked what Yin Yang had done earlier—in order to use the sword tactic—before pointing in a random direction… All of a sudden, the room began trembling wildly, causing the surrounding walls to crack and even begin crumbling! Following that, a massive sword that glowed purple and black began manifesting! The sheer force of the summoning process alone caused strong winds to blow, and the next thing Terrance and Manager Waferer—who had been standing at the side—knew, the corners of their mouths were already bleeding due to how sharp the blades of wind were! However, they were far too preoccupied with staring wide-eyed at the powerful-looking sword of light before them to even notice that they were hurt! It looked so powerful that it wouldn’t be a stretch to say that it could easily topple the entire restaurant with a single swing! With a slight gesture, Gerald made the sword momentarily disappear… Once it reappeared, it was tiny
