Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1323
“The master of the valley is coming!” shouted one of the King Valley’s bodyguards excitedly. Hearingthat, the other guards—who had been facing off with those from the Fairleigh family—felt like amassive 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 theground. Upon realizing that Rupert was coming, however, all of them instantly began supporting eachother 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 knownfor their expertise in martial arts, there was once a time when those from the Fairleigh Valley alsospecialized in pill-making. After all, the founder of Fairleigh Valley was actually a subordinate from theKing Valley who managed to escape!
With that in mind, it was already pretty clear that the two families had a long history of grievances.
Regardless, despite the fact that Bradley was the younger brother, he was extremely powerful. IfRupert had to pick between whom he was more worried about, the answer would most definitelyalways be Bradley. If the rumors were true, Bradley’s level of strength was already nearing theadvanced stage of the Spirit Earth Realm! That was honestly the reason why Rupert had begungathering so many masters in the first place.
Even with that precaution, however, it was now evident that none of them were even a match forBradley. After all, Bradley had simply taken the opportunity to go wild today, as seen by the sixty-overinjured guards now cowering behind Rupert. He had truly underestimated how strong Bradley trulywas…
Gerald himself—who had followed everyone out—was now observing the man donning black clothesand shoes who was standing in front of the other Fairleighs. Looking to be around the age of forty, alarge scar on that man’s face only served to make him appear even more ferocious than he alreadywas.
“What’s wrong, Master of King Valley? From the looks of it, you’ve invited quite a number of masters todeal with the Fairleighs! Is my guess correct?” asked Bradley as he took a step forward while lookingstraight into Rupert’s eyes with a smile.
Being a big boss, Rupert repressed his shock before replying, “How presumptions both of you aretoday! To think that you’ve brought so many of your men over on such short notice! You’ve even injuredso 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 hisface? Back when you used the King Valley’s medicine to hire a master to ambush us? If my brotherhadn’t risked his life back then, I wouldn’t have even been able to escape in the first place! Mind you, Iwon’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 onlydo we still have old unsettled scores, but to think that your daughter would actually free theundefeatable 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 todayto 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 faceseemed like it was executing some ferocious tribal dance.
Regardless, Rupert remained momentarily silent. It was true that he had previously sent someone toassassinate the brothers. What more, those from the King Valley had had increased conflicts with theFairleighs quite recently. Now that the Fairleighs were even blaming his daughter for releasing theirsavage, Rupert could already tell that they had been waiting for an excuse to do all this. To think thatthey were finally going to actually do it!
However, even though it was clear that the Fairleighs were looking for a fight, given the currentsituation, Rupert feared that not even all the masters that he had gathered and trained over the past sixyears would be able to take on Bradley!novelbin
With that in mind, Rupert then lowered his voice before saying, “Don’t think you can just do whateveryou please just because you’ve reached the advanced stage of the Spirit Earth Realm… I’ll have youknow 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 evenbeen able to withstand a single blow from Bradley! With that in mind, stop wasting our time and offeryourselves to us already! Of course, if you still wish to fight back, then it can’t be helped. Seamus! Youstay back! There’s not even a need for your second uncle to take action! If they’re reluctant tocooperate, just clean up the rest of those so-called masters!” snorted Hershel as he turned to look atSeamus.
Upon hearing that, the elders from before—who had mocked Gerald—instantly portrayed extremelyugly expressions.
Those from the King Valley had been famous for the longest time. To think that they were being takenso lightly now! As if that wasn’t already humiliating enough, the Fairleighs were just leaving a junior todeal with them!
