The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2477

Whatever the case was, Finnley then replied, “Indeed. He had hidden himself so well that almost didn’t notice him! Thankfully, at the time, I had already encountered your grandfather once before a few decades ago..”

“You’ve.. Known him for that long?” asked the surprised Gerald.

“I have, and from the second I met him, I knew he wasn’t worthy of becoming my acquaintance. For context, when I first met Daryl, I was still investigating the Soluna Deus Sect. At the time, I figured that there’d be a higher probability for people in cryptic families to have angelic roots, so I traveled across the globe to meet them. It was during my travels when I first met your grandfather. Even at the time, his cultivation techniques were exceedingly odd.” NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.

“For one, despite there being demonic essential qi in his body, one of his cultivation techniques was black magic. Aside from that, he also seemed to have entered the devilish cultivation realm! He possessed devilish essential qi as well. Since the latter was clearly stronger, it indirectly told me that though he had initially wanted to enter the highest realm using his demonic cultivation, he ultimately switched to devilish cultivation”

“Regardless, at the time, he was apparently pestering the Gunters. Unfortunately, I had more important matters to attend to at the time, and thinking that he was just a minor character, I didn’t take him too seriously. Alas, when I completed my job and attempted to look for Daryl again to ask him where he had learned the secret techniques of demonic and devilish cultivation, I realized that he had gone missing.”

“Following that, a few years passed and I eventually forgot about him… It was only when I found Mila and you when I realized that someone was always pulling the strings when it came to you. This was

when I found out that Daryl was the one behind all this! Daryl had been trying to obtain your Herculean Primordial Spirit since then, and you had been manipulated like a mere pawn!” explained Finnley.

“It’s all coming together now. Speaking of which, I remember wanting to head to where my previous incarnation was buried, but my grandfather clearly didn’t want me to know too much about my previous incarnation. It was around then when I received a package from a mysterious old man who told me to check that place out again. Due to that incentive, I ultimately headed there… And shortly after, found out that Daryl had killed the anaconda Guardian Beast! It was then when I began suspecting Daryl, but that aside, that mysterious old man was you all along, right?” asked Gerald.

“Bingo!I had been trying to identify his motives at the time, but boy was that kid cunning. He kept hiding behind the scenes and i’d always lose track of him! Had I managed to get my hands on him, you wouldn’t have been in such a passive position!” replied Finnley.

“But… shouldn’t his cultivation and yours have been worlds apart at the time…? With your ability, finding him should’ve been easy, no..?” asked Gerald.

Laughing slightly bitterly, Finnley then shook his head as he said, “True enough, he wasn’t nearly as capable as me back then, but he was still extremely cunning.. You can’t underestimate him, Gerald, and I say this since I discovered a major secret about him while investigating that old man!”

“What did you find out?” asked Gerald as he filled Finnley’s teacup.

“It’s about his cultivation… After thorough investigation, I found out why he possessed both demonic and devilish essential qi. Apparently, the secret technique that he was practicing was a devilish technique known as the Hellish Skynet! This technique was sealed in a forbidden book that was apparently written during the Deitus Realm’s heyday… With that in mind, even I don’t know how long that book’s remained lost. After all, there was hardly any news about it…!”
