Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 997 The entire hall fell into chaos as the people within it frantically tried finding ways to cope with what theyhad just witnessed.

While many were able to maintain their sanity by curling up into balls near the corners of the room,those who were less lucky ended up foaming on the floor due to the immense fear they were feeling.

Juliet herself was so terrified that she had already burst into tears by this point. However, due to utterfear, she didn’t even dare to say a single word.novelbin

On the contrary, Gerald simply closed his eyes before taking in a deep breath. Completely silent, hestayed that way for a brief moment before finally opening his eyes again. By then, the terrifying rednessin his eyes had already disappeared.

Slowly walking up to the butler form before, he then asked, “Where did you lock my comrades up?”

Instead of giving a reply, however, the butler instantly began trembling vigorously before ultimatelyvomiting blood and falling to the floor! Though the butler’s body continued twitching for a brief moment,in the end, he stopped moving for good.

Due to Gerald’s medical expertise, he was able to tell that the butler must have been so terrified that allhis blood went up to his brain, causing a rupture in his blood vessels there. In short, the butler was nowbrain dead.

Looking at the fresh corpse by his feet, Gerald simply turned to face the subordinate standing behindhim before ordering, “Go look for them!”

“Right away, young master!”

After his men went off to investigate, Gerald was just about to leave when he caught a glimpse of themother and daughters from the Yowell family huddling closely together in fear. However, he simplyaverted his gaze before leaving the place for good.

Despite his absence, nobody dared to even move a muscle, even after an hour had passed!Throughout that time, an almost ungodly silence had filled the room.

It was evident that from now on, everyone in Heavenly City’s Triangle District would be fear-strickenwhenever they heard the Royal Dragon Group’s name being mentioned.

Three days later in Gerald’s mansion, Welson came up to him before saying, “After being told by thelord to look for the holy fox, I’ve glad to say that I’ve finally located it, young master! As it turned out,someone came across the holy fox about a year ago within the dense forest west of the LoganProvince.”

“I’m sure you’re aware of why the lord is so keen on you locating the hold fox. Let me remind you that ifyou fail to nourish yourself with the fox’s holy blood, there exists a chance for your temperament to beinfluenced by your hatred. Once that happens, it’ll be incredibly difficult to salvage your old personality,”added Welson before sighing.

Hearing that, Gerald frowned slightly though his expression contrasted how touched he was feelingfrom Welson’s words.

After all, he had to admit that though he was easily able to control his bloodlust in the beginning, fromthe moment he made his move on Sven, his hatred intensified so much that it was akin to a tiny sparkturning into a bush fire. Once a single bush was ignited, it was extremely difficult to stop the flamesfrom spreading to the rest of the forest. In other words, Gerald was well aware that he could potentiallylose control of himself due to his overwhelming hatred.

Since he had resolved the issue with such brutality the other day, a near irresistible urge to kill hadconstantly lingered around Gerald throughout the past three days.

“I get where both of you are coming from, Welson… I don’t want to end up becoming a killing machineeither. Very well, relay my command to the others that we’ll be heading off to the west of the LoganProvince immediately in search of the holy fox,” ordered Gerald.

“Right away, young master!”

After giving his order, Gerald stood up and walked toward a window where a flower pot—with freshflowers inside—had been placed. As he gently held on to one of the flower’s petals, he muttered tohimself, “If I’m not mistaken, the Moldell family base established by Kort is located in the LoganProvince…”

As Gerald thought about the possibility of exacting his revenge on Kort when he arrived in the LoganProvince, his grip tightened slightly. At that moment, all of the flowers within that pot immediately wilted!

Welson was watching as the incident happened, and he felt his eyelids twitching. As was expected, itwas right for the lord to be worried about the young master.

The hellish transformation had greatly improved the young master’s strength, and from what Welsoncould remember, the young master was actually even stronger than the lord had been all those yearsago when the lord had just completed his own transformation.

The old man was also well aware that if the lord hadn’t been worried about Gerald falling intoimmorality, he wouldn’t have told Welson to follow the young master around in the first place.

“There’s something I’d like to say, though I’m not sure whether I should actually say it, young master…”

“Go on, Welson.”

“Well, we may need a few days to locate the holy fox. Due to that, I’m afraid that there’ll be a chancethat you’ll get controlled by your inner demon if you fail to hold yourself back properly. See, when thelord himself was learning the blessings of the dragon back then, he found a solution to mediate hisbloodlust. I was wondering if you’d like to give it a try…” said Welson.

“What sort of solution?”
