The Secretly Rich Man full story

Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1308

If it wasn’t already evident enough, it was the man who had just returned from collecting herbs for Gerald.

He had sensed the danger even before he even re-entered the shantytown. Knowing that he wouldn’t be able to

make it to the scene in time, he had grabbed a divine thought and tossed a knife to disengage Felton’s own knife

that was about to slice Sierra’s neck.

Alas, it was only when he got to the scene that he realized that Felton had already dismembered Sierra’s arm!

“Hand her to me and keep her dismembered arm safe! She can still be saved!” ordered the man as he quickly held

onto the unconscious young girl before dashing all the way home. Since there was quite a distance between his

house and Sierra’s, the man knew he had no time to waste.

Regardless, upon arriving at his house, both Gerald and Monica were immensely shocked to see Sierra in such a

state. However, they quickly snapped out of it and began helping the ailing girl.

Since Gerald knew the art of setting bones and the middle-aged man had immense medical mastery, both of them

seamlessly cooperated to reattach Sierra’s arm. All the while they did so, Elias explained the entire story that led to

Sierra’s current state.

“That b*stard!” growled Gerald who had to stop moving his hands for a second since they were now trembling so

much with resentment.

As it turned out, the Gunters had been searching for him. Sierra had only gotten to her current state since Felton

had caught the scent of rare medicinal herbs—that the middle-aged man had used on Gerald—lingering around

her. She had suffered so much just because of him…

“You Gunters… To think that you aren’t even willing to let a child go!” added Gerald, his murderous intent clearly

reflected in his eyes.

“First of all, be mindful of your wounds. Secondly, don’t stop moving your hands! Focus on saving Sierra!” said the

man as he placed a hand over Gerald’s shoulder to ease the anger in him. From how red Gerald’s eyes already

were, the middle-aged man was afraid that the sudden stress would result in his internal organ getting harmed

again.

While Gerald was aware of what the man was trying to do, he still couldn’t bring himself to just calm down after

finding out about all this.

Thankfully, after quite a bit of time, both of them finally managed to reattach her arm to her body. It was truly a

good thing that both of them had such exceptional medical skills.

However, though they managed to get her arm functioning again, there was still a large scar left behind. That,

however, wasn’t impossible to remove. All they needed was just a few special herbs.

Whatever the case was, it was late at night when they finally bandaged all of Sierra’s wounds and placed her in

bed. Elias trusted the middle-aged man enough to leave her here, so he simply headed home to take care of

Sierra’s mother next.

As Monica sat by Sierra’s bed to keep her company, Gerald himself sat outside to take a smoke.

Thinking about all that had happened today, Gerald couldn’t help but clench his fist.

Though Sierra was just a naïve child, she was a kind and bright one. Had the man not rushed back in time, then

Sierra’s life could’ve very well ended because of him. If that had truly taken place, then Gerald would surely not

even have the will to stay alive anymore.

Clenching his fists so hard to the point where minor cracking could be heard, Gerald muttered to himself, “The

Judgement Portal and the Gunters… I’m not letting either of you off that easily because of this…!”

“Still filled with self-reproach, Gerald?” asked the middle-aged man out of the blue as he walked over and sat beside

Gerald.

“…Indeed. Speaking of which, I have to thank you, sir… Had it not been for your quick actions, Sierra could have…”

Watching as Gerald lowered his head, the middle-aged man then took out a cigarette of his own before prompting

Gerald to light it. Once Gerald did, the man slipped it into his mouth before replying, “That’s quite enough. There’s

no point in dwelling in things like this. If you have the time to blame yourself, why not use it to figure out how to

arrive at the middle stage of the Spirit Earth Realm sooner instead? By doing so, you’ll hopefully be able to deal

with the Gunters and the Judgement Portal group since they’re still so keen on pursuing you!”

Before this, the man had taken the time to tell Gerald what the world truly was like. He also made sure to share

what cryptic families actually were.

With that in mind, the man then continued, “I’ll say it right now that unlike the other geniuses who’ve trained to get

to your level, you have exceptional advantages compared to them, both talent and physique-wise. I’ve been

meaning to talk about this for a while, but on the night I saved you, I saw you using rather exquisite techniques as

you fought against Hogan. Now then, I’d like to know something. Did someone teach them to you? Or…?”

The old man had truthfully been curious about this throughout the entire week.

“I just learned them by chance,” replied Gerald.

“I see. It seems that you truly have good blessings. Regardless, now that you’ve gained more knowledge on all this,

it’s high time you began training to further improve yourself. If you don’t, well… Your next encounter with the

Gunters won’t be any different from the last!” advised the man as Gerald nodded in response.

‘Well, it’s true that I didn’t really have a teacher… After all, I had inherited knowledge of all these rare martial arts

skills from this pendant… Still, how odd it is that I’m learning all these through memories and experiences that have

been implanted into my mind in great detail…’

‘Regardless, while I wasn’t able to practice more of those skills before since I hadn’t gained access to the Spirit

Earth Realm in the past, things are different now.’

Now, he finally had enough strength as well as the right to practice all those skills in his mind.

“I understand. I’ll need to get much stronger to deal with my current ordeal! While I used to do many useless things

in the past, things have changed. With that in mind, I agree that I need to make full use of all my great resources!”
