Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1578

In the present day near the borders of Yanam, what used to be the dragon tower had now turned into acastle-like building.

Heavily guarded by regular soldiers as well as a few strong cultivators, nobody dared to even be withina hundred-mile radius of the area…

In the innermost area of the building, ten gloomy old guards could be seen standing on both sides of anentrance that led into a mysterious-looking stone cave…

“Is master still not getting out…?” whispered the guards among themselves.

By that point, one of the guards was already pacing back and forth with his hands against his back.

After a while, Julian—who was one of the guards—couldn’t help but smile as he said, “Carlos, couldyou stop with the pacing around already? You’re making me dizzy!”

Hearing that, the eight others began teasing Carlos as well.

The eight other guards were strong cultivators who had taken refuge under Gerald’s wing within thepast five years. They weren’t the only ones, though. To be quite frank, there was almost anoverabundance of strong cultivators who had decided to become the King of the North’s followers.

With that said, the organization grew considerably over time, leading to a hierarchy being formed.Among them, ten elders were appointed to be the personal assistants of the King of the North, and theywere also his strongest men.

“Quiet down, gentlemen!” shouted an old-sounding voice at that moment which instantly prompted themen to behave.novelbin

The second they saw him, the elders instantly bowed before declaring, “Master Ghost!”

However, upon realizing that a beauty had arrived with Master Ghost, the guards barely dared to takein a breath before quickly bowing once more—this time even more respectfully—as they shouted, “MissSmith!”

True enough, the woman was none other than Mila, and after a lot of attentive care from Gerald, Milahad managed to recover almost eighty percent of her memory.

Honestly, they would’ve already gotten married by this point had it not been for the constant attacksfrom other forces throughout these five years.

“Master Crawford has been taking good care of Miss Smith all these years to the point where he evenreturned to Mayberry with her for three years, just to ease her memory’s recovery! Now that MasterCrawford has completed his seclusion and is coming out anytime now, you’d best not let him catch youbehaving so nonchalantly! If he does, you’ll certainly be facing his wrath! Let’s not forget that MissSmith was almost recaptured by the people from Jaellatra a year back!” warned Master Ghost.

Upon hearing that, the ten elders instantly nodded rather anxiously.

A year back, Gerald had decided to enter seclusion in order to be able to deal with stronger enemiesfrom other forces. It was also around that time when the Quartermain family from Jaellatra ordered theirclan on earth to abduct Mila!

Thankfully, the ten elders had been able to protect her after going through a deadly battle.

It wasn’t all that uncommon for the forces of Jaellatra to send their clans to earth to establish theirpower and interfere with matters up here.

Aside from their own clan members, there were also some like Daryl—who possessed the power of aChakra King—who secretly colluded with the forces of Jaellatra and willingly became their puppets.

Regardless, the many conflicts that had happened within this castle’s walls had mostly stemmed fromboth deep grudges and the fact that the source of the holy spirits was discovered by other forces abouttwo years ago.

At that moment, the green stone door of the underground palace slowly began rumbling open,prompting everyone to go silent….

Mila, on the other hand, found herself blushing as she looked eagerly at the opening stone wall…

Everyone was greatly excited. After all, Master Crawford was finally coming out again!
