Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1279

After walking for a bit, both of them arrived at the private room in question. Stepping inside, both of them saw

Master Nacol sitting cross-legged and with his eyes closed next to an incense burner, seemingly meditating.

Upon hearing Gerald and Jace’s footsteps, Master Nacol opened his eyes before greeting, “Here you are, Mr.

Crawford!”

Wasting no time, Gerald simply replied the greeting before getting straight to business. Jace himself had already

given Master Nacol a quick rundown on what Gerald was here for today. From what Master Nacol understood,

Gerald intended to find out where the Ancient City was.

Master Nacol was willing to grant an audience to Gerald since not only had Gerald made a massive donation for his

conference this time around, but he had also heard—from Jace—that Gerald had saved the lives of all those babies!

With that in mind, Master Nacol honestly had great respect for Gerald.

“It’s true that I know where the Ancient City is. In fact, I once went there with a teacher of mine who—quite

unfortunately—is no longer here. Still, my experience there back then has been embedded deeply in my mind till

this very day!” said Master Nacol as he took a small sip of tea. His expression—as he reminisced—suggested that

the memory was a thrilling one.

Following that, he then looked at Gerald with a smile before asking, “I wonder if you’d be interested in listening to

my story, Mr. Crawford?”

“By all means, please share your tale, Master Nacol!” replied Gerald with a nod.

Hearing that, Master Nacol then began telling a tale that took place some forty years ago…

At the time, Nacol had been in his twenties when he followed his teacher—Master Barron Xilts—over to Ancient City

after receiving an invitation from a mysterious family to help enlighten an old benefactor who had heavy thoughts

weighing on his mind.

Ancient City itself was a small city that was located within a mystifying mountain, and those who lived in it had been

isolated from the world for so many generations that no one ever dared to go there to cause any trouble. After

existing for thousands of years, it was a city filled with endless secrets and mysteries.

Even from ancient times, very few people even knew about the city, and fewer yet were those who were able to

communicate with those living within it. Master Nacol’s master was one of the few lucky enough to know about it.

Regardless, upon arriving at the foot of the mountain, both of them came across a young man who was about to kill

ten young men and women!

They later found out that the cruel man had been persistently trying to force the Gunters to come out and show

themselves, no matter how vicious he had to get. In fact, by that point, he had already murdered several people

from the nearby villages since the Gunters kept refusing to see him. From that fact alone, it was obvious that he

was also very good at scheming.

Moving back to when they first saw him, Nacol’s master managed to stop him from killing them right in the nick of

time. However, the cruel man was extremely skillful, and his master fought him for an entire day and night before

finally managing to subdue the man.

Upon realizing how many people he had already killed, Nacol’s master wanted to kill him as well to make him pay

for his actions.

The young man, however, begged Nacol’s master to spare his life, saying that he had no choice but to do all this

since he wanted to take revenge.

After constant begging, Nacol’s master’s heart eventually softened. He then promised to spare the cruel man’s life

for the time being, ordering him instead to follow Nacol and him into the mountain.

At the time, they had thought that once they got in touch with the Gunters, they would be able to get the truth

behind this matter. Quite honestly, Nacol’s master would’ve simply ended that young man’s life if he truly was evil.

After thanking his master repeatedly, the young man promised to build a magnificent monastery for him. Though

he was apparently extremely rich, Nacol’s master still ended up turning the offer down.

Traveling along the road together, all three of them eventually arrived at Ancient City.

“He couldn’t have secretly schemed against your master just to enter Ancient City, right…?” asked Gerald rather

curiously.

“Scheme? He completely deceived us, that’s what he did!” replied Master Nacol with a bitter smile as he shook his

head.

As it turned out, the young man had been extremely strong, even stronger than Nacol’s master! He was also,

however, extremely good at hiding his own strength. It was the reason why Nacol’s master had assumed that he

wouldn’t have any trouble subduing him again if he began acting up.

Regardless, the young man was able to tell that both he and his master were headed to meet the Gunters since he

realized that they had received an invitation from that family. With that in mind, he had lost to Nacol’s master on

purpose, just so he could beg his master for mercy.

He was doing all this since though he was strong, he simply couldn’t get close to the Gunters at all.

Either way, it was late at night by the time they entered Ancient City. After walking for a while, the young man

suddenly exposed his true nature and began slaughtering the Gunters who had received them!

Naturally, the second Nacol’s master saw this, he immediately attempted to subdue the young man again! Alas, his

master was no match for him…
