The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2433
“Indeed… You know, at the start, she swore that she’d never get married till the day she got her revenge. Still…
Love isn’t exactly something we can freely control… I’m sure you’re aware that we were in a relationship back
when we were still studying, right, professor? Though I love her to bits, had I known that our love would bring this
much trouble to our child, I’d have rather died than continue being in that relationship with her!” replied Marcel in a
slightly remorseful tone as he recalled his past.
“I’m assuming you said that since you eventually found out that the child would die by the age of ten if she failed to
avenge her family and obtain a Divine Fruit? I’m guessing you’re also worried that through her child’s death,
Phoebe’s identity could potentially be exposed to her enemies… Did I get that right?” asked Gerald after taking a
deep breath.
“Bingo. Truth be told, it wasn’t really a big problem when we found out that she had gotten pregnant back in
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtuniversity. However, once all this was made clear to me, we grew concerned and decided to just drop out of
university to start planning for the child’s future,” explained Marcel.
“So that’s why excellent students like you two suddenly decided to drop out!” replied the professor with an
understanding nod.
“Indeed… We’re sorry to have disappointed you, professor, but there was no other way. Had we not done that, the
child’s safety would’ve been at risk!” muttered Marcel.
“I see… Curious question, but did Phoebe know where the Divine Fruit tree was…?” asked Gerald.
Shaking his head, Marcel then said, “Unfortunately, she remembers little about the fruit. After all, she was very
young when she consumed it. The only hint we have is that the tree is located where heavenly fire descends… You
see, the Willows only passed down secrets through word of mouth. Since Phoebe’s mother hadn’t been told where
the tree was before the mass assassination, the tree’s location is pretty much lost. Though Phoebe’s mother did
manage to salvage the Willow’s Hundred Herbs Almanac and two sets of witchcraft books, none of them had any
records about the Divine Fruit either!”
“With that in mind, all we could do was slowly watch our son grow till he reached the age of ten… Mind you, he got
to that age about ten years ago, yet we still haven’t managed to locate the tree! That aside, about our divorce…
You see, someone was interested in creating Yangblood pellets with Phoebe’s help. Fearing that she would be found,
both of us agreed to divorce so that Phoebe could escape with the pellets while I remained here as a distraction to
confuse those who were hunting her down,” added Marcel.
“Yangblood pellets? Also, you said she hasn’t managed to locate the Divine Fruit tree to this day, correct? With that
in mind, your child should be dead. But that doesn’t make any sense! After all, about a year ago, Phoebe secretly
sent me a letter asking for my help to search for the tree!” replied the confused professor.
“Ah, I forgot to explain that bit. While it’s true that my child who will soon turn twenty should’ve died years ago, he’s
still alive due to the Yangblood pellets,” said Marcel.
This prompted Darkwind to suddenly say, “I’ve heard that Yangblood pellets can only be completed when used
together with Yinblood pellets… Once they’re combined, they’ll form a holy medicine known as Yinyang Blood
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmpellets. Regardless, on its own, a Yangblood pellet is capable of stopping a person from growing for fifteen years.
Once fifteen years have passed, however, the person must then take a Yinblood pellet to stop the effects of the
Yangblood pellet and restore the harmony of life.”
“If a Yinblood pellet isn’t taken to regulate the invasion of Yang energy before then, the person’s brain will rapidly
be damaged and they’ll find themselves regressing till the point of death! I know about all this since I had planned
to obtain such pellets and hand them to my descendants. Unfortunately…” muttered Darkwind.
“Well, what Saint Darkwind said is true. My child is currently still alive due to the Yangblood pellet. Unfortunately,
since we don’t have any Yinblood pellets, my child’s already becoming slightly demented. If this goes on, I fear he’ll
die in another five years!” replied Marcel.
“I get it now. So you two split up to simultaneously look for Yinblood pellets and the Divine Fruit tree, correct?”
asked the professor with an understanding nod.
“Indeed. You see, Phoebe aside, my son’s the only other heir of the witches left alive! It doesn’t help that due to
complications in the Willow family’s bloodline, she’s only able to give birth once. With all that said, we’ve truly been
struggling for our child for most of our lives!”
