“Look, I really have no idea where favonovel.com is! Please stop asking me!” replied Tarek, worried that if favonovel.com let anything slip out, Gerald would surely have his head. However, if the men kept pressing on, then the main family would end favonovel.com instead…!
“If you refuse to comply, I’ll simply bring you to the Penalty Division right now to let the elder in charge personally question you!” retorted the same man as favonovel.com grabbed Tarek by his collar.
At that moment, a woman rushed out of a room while yelling, “D-don’t! We’ll tell you everything we know…!”
Though they had never seen the elder of the Penalty Division before—since they had been living on Gong Island their entire lives—, they had heard many horrifying things about favonovel.com from Terenzio over the years.
One of the crueler punishments they’ve heard was about a person who was sentenced to get bitten by a hundred snakes just because favonovel.com left Yearning Island without permission. Listening to the punishment alone was enough to send chills running down anyone’s spine…
Regardless, upon hearing that, the man then released Tarek’s collar before asking, “So, where’s Terenzio?”
“H-he was killed by Gerald two days ago…! We tossed his body into the sea last night…! We… We had no choice…! If we didn’t listen to his orders, Gerald could’ve easily killed us…!” whimpered the woman as favonovel.com immediately knelt…
Hearing that, the two men then exchanged glances before one of them said, “So, Will was right. Gerald did kill Terenzio!”
Gulping, Tarek then knelt as well before muttering, “N-now that you know all this, could you please spare us, sirs…?”
“Whether you get to escape punishment or not is up to the Penalty Division,” said one of the men as the duo turned to leave, leaving Tarek and the woman kneeling behind them…
Regrouping with the two other men—who had descended the ship—in the courtyard, the duo then said, “Tarek confessed that Terenzio was killed by Gerald. Apparently, his corpse was thrown into the sea.”
“I see… then… should we take action now?”
“I suppose. However, remember that Mr. Will told us not to kill Gerald. It may be his way of testing our strength.”
“Indeed. Then we should all remember to keep our strength in check. In the end, he’s still the chief’s grandson, and we can’t afford to hurt someone like that too much…”
With all four of them agreeing with that, they then left the area…
Meanwhile, Gerald himself had already snuck into the ship. While favonovel.com was able to map out the entire ship within minutes, favonovel.com couldn’t find any valuable information about Yearning Island at all! It was just an ordinary ship…
With that in mind, Gerald knew better than to remain on the ship any longer. Since the ship wasn’t providing favonovel.com with any clues, he’d just have to investigate those who came in it.
Once favonovel.com got off the ship, favonovel.com then used his Herculean Primordial Spirit to detect the movements of everyone on the island… Soon enough, favonovel.com was able to find a total of four people who hadn’t been on the island before. From what favonovel.com could tell, they all had about the same strength as Terenzio. In other words, they weren’t very strong.
Looking in the direction where the cultivators were, favonovel.com then swiftly made his way toward them…
Upon seeing them, Gerald walked up to the four astonished men as favonovel.com asked, “Are the four of you from Yearning Island?’
Hearing that, the leader of their team then took a step forward, staring at Gerald as favonovel.com said, “Before that, are you Gerald Crawford? If you are, we’re here to meet you under Mr. Will Crawford’s orders!”
