Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1563
“Very well, then! We’ll end this tomorrow!” agreed Gerald before immediately leaving.
Seconds after Gerald’s departure, two shadowy figures suddenly bounded over to Daryl’s side…
“I have to insist that you’re overestimating him, my lord! Using the great dragon extermination spell on him… Don’t
you think that you’re treating him a bit too highly?”
“That’s right! After all, even though he’s become the King of the North and is now a Chakra King like you, it’s
evident that he’s still far less capable in comparison! I mean, Gerald wasn’t even able to land a single hit on you
earlier!”
If it wasn’t evident enough, both of the men—who were at the level of Eighth-rank Masters—were very close to
Daryl.
Before they could say anything else, however, Daryl suddenly spurted a fountain of blood out of his mouth, falling

“…W-what? M-my lord!” shouted the shocked duo.
Before they were able to help him up, the shivering Daryl—whose forehead was now overflowing with sweat—
shouted, “Don’t touch me! My… Several of my veins have been damaged by Gerald’s essential qi! If we’re not
careful I’ll be as good as gone!”
Following that, the injured old man looked at the direction that Gerald had left in, his heart beating wildly and his
eyes unable to hide their wariness.
In an almost heartbroken tone, Daryl then muttered, “…He… His power is now far beyond mine… He’s become too
powerful…! I’ll undoubtedly end up losing in our battle tomorrow!”
“…T-then… What should we do, my lord?” asked the now panicking duo.
“What else can be done? We only have the great dragon extermination spell left! If that can’t take Gerald down,
then nobody on this planet will ever come close to becoming his opponent again… It truly isn’t a stretch to claim
that Gerald is now the strongest man on Earth!” replied Daryl, complex emotions reflected in his eyes.
“…Well, what are you still standing there for? Hurry! Return and start preparing the great dragon extermination
spell!” bellowed Daryl.
It wasn’t long after before the battle between Daryl and Gerald started spreading around.
Naturally, this instantly caused quite a stir among members of the cultivating realm as well as those from
international prestigious families.
A battle between the King of the North and the King of South Asia… This battle was surely going down in history!
With that in mind, numerous skilled men from both the cultivating realm and distinguished families quickly made
their way to Yanam throughout the night…
Aside from that, news of the upcoming battle also started an undercurrent in Yanam. Massive events like these
required people to eventually pick a side, after all. A wrong or careless choice now would definitely affect any
future development of the families involved. In a way, making decisions at this point was not unlike placing heavy

Understanding that it wouldn’t be worth the loss, the powers quickly began researching Gerald’s background,
hoping to pick the right side as soon as possible.
Interestingly enough, though he was thought to be unpopular, many ended up picking the new King of the North’s
side.
Most of them were from second-class families within Yanam, and among them, was the Jenks, Yosef’s family.
Regardless, Gerald couldn’t seem to calm his mind at all that night. Despite the fact that he was bathing in a
moonlit hot spring without anyone in sight, there were simply too many things bothering Gerald at the moment.
From what Daryl had said, he had done all this just to obtain Gerald’s Herculean Primordial Spirit… Aside from that,
the old man had apparently built secret connections with some of Jaellatra’s forces as well…
Either way, Gerald now knew that Mila truly had been in Jaellatra this entire time, and that she had somehow
managed to gain enough recognition to be given the power to travel over to earth and make negotiations on
Jaellatra’s behalf. In the end, however, she got captured by Daryl who had hoped to use her to threaten him!
With such high stakes at risk, Gerald didn’t dare to be careless…
It didn’t help that he hadn’t gotten in touch with any of the forces in Jaellatra before…
