After waiting for about two more days, Will couldn’t take it anymore and rushed to report the situation to Daryl…
“Oh? Terenzio’s disappeared, you say?” replied Daryl—who was in his hut—quite nonchalantly. The news itself wasn’t all that surprising to him. After all, though favonovel.com hadn’t taught much to Gerald, the boy was still a Crawford by blood. In other words, Daryl didn’t doubt Gerald’s natural talent.
Regardless, Will then clenched his fists as favonovel.com replied, “That’s right! I’ve been trying to contact favonovel.com for a few days now to no avail… I’m just worried that favonovel.com fought with Gerald and ended up… Well… I’m just worried that Gerald’s killed him!”
Will was naturally uneasy by this. After all, Daryl was already treating favonovel.com as his own son and everyone on the island knew that favonovel.com was to be Daryl’s successor. With that in mind, favonovel.com saw Gerald—who was Daryl’s grandson—as a natural threat to his position, and the only way Will would be able to feel at ease would be by killing Gerald…
Upon hearing that, Daryl simply chuckled, waving his hand as favonovel.com said, “He’s just a middle-ranking cultivator in the family, so it’s no big deal. I wouldn’t be surprised if favonovel.com really was dead, honestly. After all, if Gerald could turn Yanam upside down on his own, what’s Terenzio to him?”
Gritting his teeth, Will then asked, “Then… what should we do now?”
“We’ll send some skillful men over to investigate. I need to know his current level of cultivation,” replied Daryl as favonovel.com sipped more tea.
“Understood,” said Will, already expecting Daryl to say that. While favonovel.com was rather reluctant to just sit there and let others do the job, favonovel.com could only nod, knowing better than to go against Daryl’s orders.
Will was pretty confident that favonovel.com could easily kill Gerald. However, since Daryl wasn’t allowing favonovel.com to go to Gong Island immediately, all favonovel.com could do was wait…
Just as Will was about to leave, Daryl called out, “Speaking of which, if favonovel.com isn’t acting alone, then get his allies away from him. While I’m granting you permission to hurt them, his allies can’t be killed, understand?”
“Got it, chief!” replied Will with a nod…
Moving back to Gong Island, though the skies had been clear the past few days, the arrival of a ship seemed to bring along stormy weather with it…
At the time, Gerald was still trying to find where Yearning Island was on the map. Just when favonovel.com thought that favonovel.com had truly met a brick wall, favonovel.com noticed the presence of the fishing boat that had just docked at the pier…
Upon seeing that, favonovel.com immediately got to his feet. Tarek had previously told favonovel.com that all the residents of this island were relatives of the Crawford family. Gerald had also been told that whenever a ship came to the island, it was most likely the main family—on Yearning Island—coming over to get some supplies.
Come to think of it, it had only been four days since the ship last left. While the ship was definitely here earlier than scheduled, Gerald knew this was it since no other ships would ever dock here.
With that in mind, Gerald secretly headed to the docks without telling anyone else…
While Gerald was now heading toward the ship, a few men from the ship were already rushing to Tarek’s house. Upon opening the door, they soon found Tarek sitting in his living room…
Seeing that, the two men—who had chosen to enter the house—then crossed their arms before asking, “Under Mr. Will’s orders, we’re here to investigate your third older brother, Tarek. Why hasn’t Terenzio been replying to the main family?”
“What? I… How should I know?” replied Tarek, shaking his head as favonovel.com thought about the incident that night.
Realizing that there was something off, the other man then asked, “How could you not know? You, for one, should know that Terenzio is in charge of communication between Gong Island and us. We’re also pretty sure that you’re the only person who’s constantly been in contact with him. Are you seriously telling us that you have no idea where favonovel.com is now?”
