The Invisible Mogul -
Chapter 1031
Whatever the case was, Julian now finally understood why Gerald had been so happy to see him rather than being frightened.
So Gerald was already this strong... Not only that, his moves were also highly unpredictable and his body was near invincible!
It was evident that Gerald already knew that Julian was never a match against him from the very beginning. Thinking back, Gerald had even thanked
him for presenting himself!
Regret was now coursing through Julian as he wondered if things could’ve gone differently if he hadn’t decided to chase after Gerald earlier. If he had
just gone home after murdering those few people, then he could’ve brewed the elixir and possibly gained the opportunity to enter the mysterious
realm of inner strength.
However, it was much too late for regrets now.
“What... What are you planning to do with me...?” said Julian in between pants, already on his last legs.
“I’ll be drawing your blood now. Worry not, for I’ll keep your body intact just as I’ve promised! May you enter the afterlife with peace of mind!” said
Gerald as he gently grabbed hold of Julian’s neck...
With a loud snap, Julian’s eyes widened before finally going vacant. The old man was dead.
After gathering sufficient blood, Gerald looked around for some herbs to use in order to further refine the old man’s blood essence.
Once he was done, Gerald placed the bait in clear view before bringing the puppy along with him and hiding, lying in wait for the fox to make its
appearance.
Gerald held on to his black dagger tightly the entire time, an extremely tense expression on his face as he and the puppy continued lying in ambush.
He was sure that the fox would eventually make an appearance. It had to. After all, the fox was only facing extinction due to its inherently greedy
nature.
As Gerald thought about that, the puppy’s eyes suddenly widened. Realizing that, Gerald held his breath as well as the holy fox slowly walked over to
the bait! It was finally here!
Though the fox was clearly approaching the bait extremely cautiously, it was also evident that it was now already blinded by greed.
After scanning through the area multiple times, the holy fox finally decided to make a quick dash toward the blood, squeaking loudly in greed!
Now was his chance!
He wasn’t going to allow it to escape anymore!
Raising his dagger, Gerald swiftly tossed his dagger at the holy fox! A split second later, the blade connected with the fox’s Achilles heel, sending it
squealing loudly for one final time before flopping to the ground, dead.
The deed was done!
Rushing over to pick up the lifeless fox’s body, Gerald was overjoyed as he said, “Hahaha! You’ve truly helped me a great deal today, Julian! Your
blood was the perfect bait for the holy fox!”
Even the puppy was barking while wagging its tail happily.
“Don’t worry, I haven’t forgotten about you! To express my gratitude, I’ll lead you out of the forest with me once I’ve drunk the blood. After that, you
can eat whatever you want to your heart’s content!” added Gerald as he smiled.
Following that, he hugged the puppy and curried it over to a nearby cave with the holy fox’s corpse in his other hand.
Now that he had acquired the fox, he needed to drink its holy blood quickly.
After all, according to the Book of Beasts, the holy blood would only remain holy for a short amount of time after the fox passed away. If he continued
dragging on for too long, the holy property would cease to exist, resulting in all his efforts being for naught.
As he prepared himself to drink the blood, Gerald remembered the properties of the holy blood based on what his grandfather had once told him.
From what he remembered, the blood itself was holy since it had slowly accumulated holiness from both the heavens and the earth, thus filling the
blood with an immense amount of energy.
Not only would the blood help nourish and supplement one’s heart and temperament, but it would also greatly improve the drinker’s inner strength.
However, in order to fully utilize the blood, Gerald had to use a special breathing method that, in accordance with how much he had trained and the
extent of his current abilities, would take him about three days to complete the fusion.
“Alright puppy, listen here. I’ll be blocking the cave’s entrance for the next three days. During that period, I’ll be in a deep sleep. Your job will be to
make sure no insects or small beasts come near me during my sleep. Do you understand?” said Gerald as he gently patted the puppy’s head.
Barking in agreement, the puppy then hung its tongue out as it happily followed Gerald into the cave.
Meanwhile, another group of people—which consisted of well over a hundred men—seemed to be searching around for someone within the dense
Everdare Forest.

All of them were fully equipped with weapons, and among them, a young man in his twenties could be seen walking with the group, his hands behind
his back as several elderly men walked by his side.
“Has he not been found yet?” asked the young man with a frown.
“We still don’t have any leads on him!” replied his subordinate.
