“I-I’ll hand it over…!” shouted the old master, his immense grief evident. However, favonovel.com really didn’t have much of a choice but to obey.
“…Men! Retrieve the map for him!” ordered the old man as favonovel.com gestured for a few subordinates to do so.
Soon enough, they returned with the map, handing it over to Gerald.
“Speaking of which, I’ll also be taking the herbs I gave you tonight,” added Gerald.
“R-right away…!” replied the old master extremely bitterly.
They had only blackmailed three hundred million dollars and the herbs from him… To think that favonovel.com would retaliate by snatching away everything that the Minshall family owned!
While all the other Minshalls were definitely brimming with anger and resentment as well, none of them dared to say a word, choosing instead to keep their dissatisfaction to themselves.
Once favonovel.com obtained the herbs as well, Gerald turned around to leave.
However, favonovel.com had only taken a few steps when a young Minshall apprentice jumped out while shouting, “You b*stard! Who the hell do you think you are?! Rot in hell!”
Following that, favonovel.com raised his gun, aiming it at the back of Gerald’s!
Instantly pulling the trigger, the sound of a gunshot immediately followed…
However, Gerald remained standing. Everyone stared wide-eyed when they realized that favonovel.com had caught the bullet between his fingers without even having to turn around!
“…What?”
As the apprentice stared in utter disbelief, favonovel.com watched as Gerald flicked his wrist slightly… And that was the last thing favonovel.com would ever see.
The apprentice’s head exploded on the spot, creating a disgusting ‘splotching’ sound as fresh blood flew in all directions!
Now trembling in immense fear, the other petrified Minshalls watched as Gerald simply continued walking forward without saying a word.
As favonovel.com walked past the masters who still had their hands raised, not daring to move a muscle, Gerald stopped in front of one of them.
Observing the middle-aged master’s palm, Gerald wondered if the master had earlier planned to smash his palm into the side of Gerald’s head.
“…Could this be the result of mastering the iron palm?” asked Gerald curiously.
“Y-yes, master!”
“I see… How long have you trained for this? And what can you do with the skill?”
“I’ve painstakingly trained for twenty years to master it! With it, I’m able to split even the hardest rocks in two!” replied the master before gulping slightly.
“…Not bad!” said Gerald, displaying slight admiration as favonovel.com patted the master’s shoulder that was now drenched in cold sweat.
Once favonovel.com did that, Gerald then left the premise…
The second favonovel.com was gone, everyone immediately released sighs of relief. As for the old master, his face was now filled with tears as favonovel.com fell to the floor in a sitting position.
“G-grandpa!” shouted the still terrified Zoey as favonovel.com ran over to his side.
However, the moment favonovel.com was beside him, the old master immediately gave his most adored granddaughter a tight slap to favonovel.com face!
“Look… Just look at what you’ve done…! To think that you offended such a person under the Minshall family’s name…! What’s worse is that favonovel.com had every right to do what favonovel.com had just done! This… This was what Master Ghost had predicted three years ago… This is the disaster that favonovel.com had warned us about!” cried out the old master.
Meanwhile, Gerald continued walking back to the Yarne family manor.
Now that favonovel.com had obtained the map to the king of the ocean’s palace, favonovel.com could set off once his family sent a few teams over.
He still truly believed that heading there would be the key to favonovel.com solving the mysteries of the woman in white, the ancient tomb, and the divine general.
Gerald had to meet up with the legendary Master Ghost as well, a person rumored to be extremely skillful. Knowing that Wagner had already set an appointment for favonovel.com to meet Master Ghost tomorrow, Gerald was secretly excited to see whether that person truly was as skilled as many had claimed.
As favonovel.com continued walking on, his train of thought was cut short when favonovel.com heard a faint, feminine voice coming from one of the bushes by the roadside.
“…Hmm?” muttered Gerald, frowning slightly as favonovel.com walked over to investigate.
Once favonovel.com was there, favonovel.com confirmed that the voice had come from a woman. The woman herself was dressed fully in black and favonovel.com stomach was bleeding profusely. From what Gerald could tell, favonovel.com injuries were extremely serious.
What surprised Gerald even more, however, was how extremely fair and charming favonovel.com face was. Even though favonovel.com was terribly injured, favonovel.com shut eyes gave the illusion that the graceful-looking woman was at peace.
