Legend of Wyatt-Chapter 1559: Asa Honorston! Withered!
Chapter 1559: Chapter 1559: Asa Honorston! Withered!
After killing Richard Thai, taking his Storage Ring, and destroying the corpse to cover up the traces, Wyatt Barnes immediately left the forest that Richard had left in ruins.
Currently, his urgent task was to find a secluded place to recuperate and heal.
As for other matters, they would have to wait until he recovered his True Energy and mental strength.
Including Sect Leader ’Remy Mitchell’, a group of Saint Realm strongmen from the Moon Radiance Sect pursued Wyatt Barnes relentlessly for ten days without any results, eventually returning to the Moon Radiance Sect in disappointment.
Upon returning to the Moon Radiance Sect, Remy Mitchell heard about Trevor Baillie fleeing with others and was instantly enraged.
He wasn’t a fool; the first thought was that several Vice Sect Leaders had let Trevor Baillie escape on purpose.
However, even if he could suspect it, what could he do?
Could he possibly execute them or expel them from the Moon Radiance Sect?
Any one of the Moon Radiance Sect’s Vice Sect Leaders was at the ’Half-Step Saint Realm’, all of them pillars of the Moon Radiance Sect, and they could breakthrough to the ’Saint Realm’ anytime.
Loss of any one would be a loss for the Moon Radiance Sect.
Because of this, Remy Mitchell was angry but took no action.
And the Moon Radiance Sect’s Vice Sect Leaders dared to privately allow Trevor Baillie and others to flee precisely because they had considered this point.
Regardless, the Moon Radiance Sect lost a ’Quinton Jimenez’, and one ’Trevor Baillie’ fled, losing a once-in-a-lifetime genius like ’Wyatt Barnes’; the loss was inevitably immeasurable.
As a result, ’Remy Mitchell’, as the Sect Leader of the Moon Radiance Sect, had no good mood for a long time.
Of course, although he did not continue searching for Wyatt Barnes, Remy Mitchell did not give up and secretly sent trusted elders of the Moon Radiance Sect out to explore Wyatt Barnes’s whereabouts.
"If our Moon Radiance Sect could obtain that sword... Our Moon Radiance Sect could easily become the leader among the nine sects; it is not impossible."
Thinking of the mysterious sword Wyatt Barnes used to kill Quinton Jimenez that day, Remy Mitchell’s heart was ablaze.
That sword, he was determined to obtain it!
Meanwhile, Wyatt Barnes was hidden in a secluded place, cultivating on the third level of the Jewel Tower.
While more than ten days passed outside, over a month had already elapsed in the Jewel Tower’s third level; Wyatt Barnes’s True Energy within his body had mostly recovered and his mental strength was completely restored.
The reason he hadn’t awakened from cultivation was that Wyatt Barnes was further consolidating his ’Entering the Saint Realm: Grand Perfection’ cultivation level.
His breakthrough to ’Entering the Saint Realm: Grand Perfection’ happened abruptly, leaving his cultivation unstable.
This time, he intended to use this opportunity to thoroughly consolidate the ’Entering the Saint Realm: Grand Perfection’ cultivation.
After his cultivation consolidates, he plans to go back to the Moon Radiance Sect once more.
His heart was filled with worry about Trevor Baillie and a group of relatives and friends.
However, despite the concern, Wyatt Barnes didn’t believe the Moon Radiance Sect would execute them, as doing so would be more harmful than beneficial.
In his view, the Moon Radiance Sect, being a seventh-tier sect, should avoid making such foolish decisions.
As Wyatt Barnes consolidated his ’Entering the Saint Realm: Grand Perfection’ cultivation, in the distant ’Mansion of Azure Clouds’, things were also unsettled.
Whoosh!
A swift figure fell like wind onto the floating island in the sky.
"Elder Honorston!"
"Elder Honorston!"
...
The rows of black-armored guards patrolling on the floating island halted respectfully upon seeing the visitor slow his pace, offering their reverent greetings.
The person they called ’Elder Honorston’ was an elderly man,
The old man wore a gray robe, with white hair and brows; he had a youthful appearance despite his age, exuding a sense of immortal demeanor.
However, his face at this moment was slightly downcast.
Nodding indifferently to the black-armored guards he encountered along the way, the old man moved his body and accelerated again, quickly entering the most luxurious area of the floating island’s architectural complex and into the vastest mansion within.
"House Master!"
Soon, the old man met the House Master of Mansion of Azure Clouds, Lanni Barnes.
"Elder Honorston, what happened? You seem hurried and anxious," Lanni Barnes asked.
The elder in front of him had been following him for many years, in charge of the ’intelligence’ under his command, and would not come rushing to him so hurriedly unless something had happened.
"House Master, if I am not wrong... Junior House Master’s full name is ’Wyatt Barnes’?"
The old man took a deep breath and asked.
"That’s correct,"
Lanni Barnes nodded, then gleefully asked, "Why? Did Elder Withered bring Wyatt back?"
"No,"
Facing Lanni Barnes’s cheerful expression, the old man shook his head with a bitter smile and continued, "I’ve received news that the Dragonsmith Clan is secretly searching for a young man named ’Wyatt Barnes’... It is said that the order came personally from the Clan Chief of the Dragonsmith Clan. Furthermore, in the Dragonsmith Clan’s intelligence department, there is also a portrait circulating."
"Here’s a sketch made by my subordinates; the person on it seems to resemble you a bit, House Master... Therefore, I suspect that the person the Dragonsmith Clan is searching for may be the Junior House Master!"
The old man raised his hand and took out a portrait, handing it to Lanni Barnes.
Lanni Barnes unfolded the portrait and his gaze immediately sharpened.
The person in the portrait, with just one glance, he recognized as his son, Wyatt Barnes.
"What on earth is going on? My son is still in the Mortal Continent, how could he provoke the Dragonsmith Clan?"
Lanni Barnes’s face darkened slightly.
The matter concerned the Dragonsmith Clan, so he had to be cautious.
Although his Mansion of Azure Clouds did not fear the Dragonsmith Clan, the thought of them searching for his son—obviously not to invite him for tea—made him worried about his son’s safety.
"I can’t figure it out either. Logically, the Junior House Master should be on the Mortal Continent now... Besides, you said you left a Condensing Sound Jade for the Junior House Master, and had Withered waiting for him at the southern edge of the Martial Dao Sacred Land. Logically, if he left the Mortal Continent, he should have gone to Withered first thing, but there’s been no news from Withered until now."
The old man was the chief of the intelligence department of the Mansion of Azure Clouds, effectively Lanni Barnes’s ’eyes’ and ’ears’ in the Martial Dao Sacred Land.
In the Martial Dao Sacred Land, any little disturbance, he could learn of it immediately.
Of course, if it was just some insignificant force, he wouldn’t pay attention to it.
"Something must have changed about this matter."
Lanni Barnes’s eyes gleamed with a sharp light, then he said in a deep voice, "Asa Honorston, I plan to return to the Cloud Skies Continent. Go inform the lady and tell her that I went out for some urgent matters... Do not tell her about this, I don’t want her to worry."
"Yes!"
Asa Honorston, also the chief of the intelligence department of the Mansion of Azure Clouds, was Lanni Barnes’s right-hand man, who respectfully complied upon hearing his words.
Lanni Barnes, after giving the instructions, immediately left the Mansion of Azure Clouds.
He left alone, without bringing anyone along.
His target was none other than the southern region of the Martial Dao Sacred Land.
"House Master?"
In the southern coastal area of the Martial Dao Sacred Land, ’Withered’ was shocked, as he never expected the House Master to appear in person.
"Withered, come with me to the Cloud Skies Continent."
Lanni Barnes saw the old man cloaked in a gray robe, and said blandly without any expression.
After speaking, he headed towards the direction of the Cloud Skies Continent first.
The old man dared not delay, and followed immediately.
This old man, though like Asa Honorston wore gray, was the complete opposite of Asa Honorston’s celestial demeanor, emitting a cold aura as if surrounded by countless ghosts.
In his hand, he held a cane.
If Karina Hanson were here, she surely would recognize him at a glance.
This was the man who, when she left the Martial Dao Sacred Land with the group from Han Mansion of Azure Waves, stopped them single-handedly.
Alone, he held back all the experts from Han Mansion of Azure Waves.
Even her strongest ally at the time, Aurelio Woodson, was exceptionally respectful towards this old man.
"Withered, Asa Honorston brought back news that the Dragonsmith Clan is searching for my son." freeweɓnøvel~com
On the way, Lanni Barnes said.
Although his tone was calm, Withered could sense a chilling coldness within it.
"The Junior House Master? Wasn’t he on the Cloud Skies Continent?"
With the information, Withered’s emotions couldn’t help but stir a little.
"Have you noticed anything unusual over the years? For example, were there any powerful figures leaving the Martial Dao Sacred Land heading towards the Cloud Skies Continent?"
Lanni Barnes inquired.
"A few days ago, a group indeed headed south."
Withered pondered for a moment and said, "That time, it was people from Han Mansion of Azure Waves, but they didn’t go to the Cloud Skies Continent... They searched a large sea area for a while, seemingly looking for someone, but eventually left empty-handed."
"Did you see anyone from the Dragonsmith Clan?"
Lanni Barnes asked again.
"The Dragonsmith Clan?"
Hearing Lanni Barnes’s question made Withered tighten up, and then he said: "A year ago, Emperor End, a Five-Clawed Golden Dragon from the Dragonsmith Clan, passed through here. I met with him... According to him, he was headed to an island away from the Cloud Skies Continent, not the continent itself. Recently, he returned looking forcedly cheerful, but I could tell he seemed to have suffered a setback."
"Then there’s no doubt... It must be related to that Emperor End!"
Lanni Barnes’s face suddenly darkened upon hearing this.
Hearing Lanni Barnes’s words, Withered seemed to realize something, and his face changed drastically, "House Master, this was my oversight. If the Junior House Master suffered due to that Emperor End, even if I fall in the Dragonsmith Clan, I will ensure Emperor End’s death!"
Withered’s words were extremely cold and sinister.
"It’s meaningless to speak of this now. The urgent matter is to get to the Cloud Skies Continent to gauge the situation... Given that the Dragonsmith Clan is searching for my son, my son should be safe for now."
Thinking of this, Lanni Barnes secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Additionally, recalling what that mysterious ’Destiny Elder’ had told him, he felt reassured.
