Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1323
“The master of the valley is coming!” shouted one of the King Valley’s bodyguards excitedly. Hearing that, the other
guards—who had been facing off with those from the Fairleigh family—felt like a massive weight had just been lifted
off their chests.
Over sixty bodyguards from the King Valley had been groaning and howling in pain as they laid on the ground. Upon
realizing that Rupert was coming, however, all of them instantly began supporting each other up—albeit all of them
being a little wobbly—before staggering over to hide behind Rupert’s back.
Rupert himself was frowning deeply, his fists clenched tightly as he shouted, “Hershel! Bradley!”
Hershel was the master of Fairleigh Valley, and Bradley was Hershel’s younger brother.
While the present-day King Valley specialized in the art of pill-making and the Fairleighs were known for their
expertise in martial arts, there was once a time when those from the Fairleigh Valley also specialized in pill-making.
After all, the founder of Fairleigh Valley was actually a subordinate from the King Valley who managed to escape!
With that in mind, it was already pretty clear that the two families had a long history of grievances.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtRegardless, despite the fact that Bradley was the younger brother, he was extremely powerful. If Rupert had to pick
between whom he was more worried about, the answer would most definitely always be Bradley. If the rumors
were true, Bradley’s level of strength was already nearing the advanced stage of the Spirit Earth Realm! That was
honestly the reason why Rupert had begun gathering so many masters in the first place.
Even with that precaution, however, it was now evident that none of them were even a match for Bradley. After all,
Bradley had simply taken the opportunity to go wild today, as seen by the sixty-over injured guards now cowering
behind Rupert. He had truly underestimated how strong Bradley truly was…
Gerald himself—who had followed everyone out—was now observing the man donning black clothes and shoes who
was standing in front of the other Fairleighs. Looking to be around the age of forty, a large scar on that man’s face
only served to make him appear even more ferocious than he already was.
“What’s wrong, Master of King Valley? From the looks of it, you’ve invited quite a number of masters to deal with
the Fairleighs! Is my guess correct?” asked Bradley as he took a step forward while looking straight into Rupert’s
eyes with a smile.
Being a big boss, Rupert repressed his shock before replying, “How presumptions both of you are today! To think
that you’ve brought so many of your men over on such short notice! You’ve even injured so many of our valley’s
men!”
“An eye for an eye, Master Rupert! Don’t you remember how you gave my brother that scar on his face? Back
when you used the King Valley’s medicine to hire a master to ambush us? If my brother hadn’t risked his life back
then, I wouldn’t have even been able to escape in the first place! Mind you, I won’t ever forget how that scar came
to be!” replied Hershel with a cold laugh.
The two families had been at odds for far too long, and Bradley had been particularly vengeful about it.
Following that, Bradley then added, “It’s high time we ended this nonsense, Rupert Yateman! Not only do we still
have old unsettled scores, but to think that your daughter would actually free the undefeatable God of War that we
so painstakingly captured! Have you any idea how many men we lost just to capture him? Our families have
already been fighting for a long time, Rupert! We’ve come today to settle our hatred, both old and new! Let’s put
an end to all this today!”
Not only were Bradley’s words intimidating, but whenever he opened his mouth, the scar on his face seemed like it
was executing some ferocious tribal dance.
Regardless, Rupert remained momentarily silent. It was true that he had previously sent someone to assassinate
the brothers. What more, those from the King Valley had had increased conflicts with the Fairleighs quite recently.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNow that the Fairleighs were even blaming his daughter for releasing their savage, Rupert could already tell that
they had been waiting for an excuse to do all this. To think that they were finally going to actually do it!
However, even though it was clear that the Fairleighs were looking for a fight, given the current situation, Rupert
feared that not even all the masters that he had gathered and trained over the past six years would be able to take
on Bradley!
With that in mind, Rupert then lowered his voice before saying, “Don’t think you can just do whatever you please
just because you’ve reached the advanced stage of the Spirit Earth Realm… I’ll have you know that we here in the
King Valley haven’t just been twiddling our fingers all these years either!”
“Hah! I assure you that everyone knows how strong the King Valley is, and that naturally includes us! Look, the less
you struggle, the easier it’ll be for all of us! Know that none of your ‘masters’ have even been able to withstand a
single blow from Bradley! With that in mind, stop wasting our time and offer yourselves to us already! Of course, if
you still wish to fight back, then it can’t be helped. Seamus! You stay back! There’s not even a need for your second
uncle to take action! If they’re reluctant to cooperate, just clean up the rest of those so-called masters!” snorted
Hershel as he turned to look at Seamus.
Upon hearing that, the elders from before—who had mocked Gerald—instantly portrayed extremely ugly
expressions.
Those from the King Valley had been famous for the longest time. To think that they were being taken so lightly
now! As if that wasn’t already humiliating enough, the Fairleighs were just leaving a junior to deal with them!
