Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1377

“Indeed! Once I possess Gerald’s body, I’ll surely be able to make a great comeback! Following that, our family will

be able to head to Jaellatra together, a perfect world for the Gunters to reign supreme as overlords! By then, our

family would be in total control of both heaven and earth!” added the old man as he chuckled longingly.

“…Regardless… Did you lead both of us down here just because you wanted to tell us all this…?” asked Yume.

“That’s a good question! See, while Gerald’s body would naturally be the best option for me, Yreth and the others

have simply been too stupid. After waiting anxiously here for so long, I’m unwilling to wait any longer! Adding that

to the fact that I’m slightly worried that Yreth will end up harming the body I wish to possess, I’m planning on

making my comeback in advance! In order to do so, however, I’ll first need a suitable body for me to adapt to, and

both of your bodies appear to possess sufficient auras…” replied the old man.

Turning to look at Gerald, he then added, “…Especially my grandson here! Quite frankly, I don’t think there’ll be

anyone even close to being as suitable as him!”

“…You… what? But he’s your descendant! You aren’t even willing to let him go…?” asked Yume in surprise.

Quite honestly, even if the old man really were to harm Felton, Yume wasn’t about to feel upset or distressed for

Felton’s sake. After all, Felton was a demon-like, cruel, and vicious person. In other words, him dying was actually

going to be a good thing.

Even so, it still felt extremely awkward to Yume since she now knew that the person who was planning to harm

Felton was her family’s ancestor whom everyone respected and admired! Knowing that simply served to amplify

her discomfort!

“Well, I don’t really have a choice either. Regardless, our family is already doing well at the moment, so your

sacrifice—to secure an even better future for the Gunters—will definitely be worth it!” scoffed the old man as he

smiled wryly.

Astonishment was reflected in Gerald’s eyes as he finally realized where the dangerous aura—that he had sensed

upon entering this area—came from. To think that this old man would be so cruel and heartless!

Even wild beasts always looked after their cubs… But this old man… He wasn’t even willing to let his own

descendant off!

As Gerald took a step back, the old men then laughed before sneering, “Now, now, there’s no need to be afraid! I’ll

be sure to lessen the pain as much as possible!”

Watching as the old man’s soul dived straight for Gerald, Gerald instantly exhausted all of the Thunder essential qi

in his body to resist the attack!

Upon collision, an explosive sound was heard! Though Gerald had the Thunder Essential qi aura up to defend

himself, the more the old man’s soul continued pushing forward, the more Gerald could feel his own soul

trembling…!

His soul wasn’t the only thing trembling either, and as Gerald’s body began quivering uncontrollably, he found

himself tasting a familiar sweetness in his mouth as blood began overflowing from it!

“I advise you not to continue engaging in such futile resistance! After all, it’ll only make things much more painful

for you!” snorted the old man with a grin.

It was a few seconds later when the smile on the old man’s face slowly faded… Only to be turned into an

expression of utter disbelief!

“…I’ve already practiced the technique—that allows me to freely move the thought of my soul—for so long that I’m

quite literally an expert at it… By right, I shouldn’t make any mistakes at all while using the technique… However,

why is it that a surging power repels me whenever I attempt to touch your soul…?!” said the old man in horror as

he quickly backed quite a distance away from Gerald, his expression a mix of awkwardness and embarrassment!

With the strength that the old man currently possessed, it was near-impossible for him not to be able to absorb

anyone’s soul, regardless of how powerful or talented that person was. Thinking about it, it was also impossible for

a Gunter descendant to possess such powerful soul strength! Forget invading this young man’s soul, Gerald’s soul

had the capability of destroying the old man’s own thought of the soul! But how could that be possible…?

“…You… You aren’t a descendant of my family, are you…? Who the hell are you?” muttered the intelligent old man

who could now tell that something was amiss.

The strength this young man possessed was simply too incredible… Knowing that fact that it could easily destroy his

thought of soul, the old man knew that he was very fortunate to have been able to pull away in time.

“His name is Felton Gunter, great-grandpa! There’s simply no way that he isn’t a Gunter descendant!” explained

Yume.

“I’m well aware of who Felton is… Yreth had constantly been training him to become the next generation’s

successor of the Gunter family, so I know the strength range of Felton’s power very well… With that said, the

person who came with you earlier is definitely not Felton…! After all, the power of this person’s soul is so strong that

even I feel terrified by it!” replied the terror-stricken old man.
