Legend of Wyatt

"Leilany, let’s go back."

Taking a deep breath to slightly suppress the restlessness in his heart, Wyatt Barnes called for Leilany, bypassed the huge stone, and returned to the bustling Dan Dao Plaza.

"Brother Wyatt, did you just... open that box?"

Leilany asked curiously.

"Yes."

Wyatt nodded, and at the same time sent a telepathic message to Leilany, saying, "Leilany, Brother Wyatt can’t let anyone know I can open that box, so I hid there just now to open it."

Hearing Wyatt’s words, Leilany nodded in partial understanding, and then also started communicating with Wyatt through telepathy, asking:

"Brother Wyatt, I just saw something inside the box? Wasn’t it supposed to be empty?"

Earlier, when they first arrived at Dan Dao Plaza and Wyatt had exchanged for that box from the old man, Leilany had also probed the box with her Divine Sense. Like everyone else, she found nothing inside.

At that time, Leilany, like everyone else, thought the box was not very valuable.

Even so, seeing Wyatt insist on exchanging a Monarch Level Divine Ability for the box, she still did not voice any objections.

In her view:

Even if the box was worthless, as long as Brother Wyatt liked it, it was worth trading anything for it.

But just now, she was shocked to discover:

After Brother Wyatt opened the box, there was actually something inside...

"So it seems you saw it too, Leilany."

Hearing Leilany’s words, Wyatt nodded and then relayed in full detail what the Chaos Divine Fire told him about the contents of the box.

"A consumable Emperor Grade Immortal Artifact?"

"It can be used three times... and each use gives the user power comparable to an ordinary Immortal Sovereign?"

Leilany’s eyes lit up, "Brother Wyatt, doesn’t this mean you essentially have three ’life-saving talismans’?"

"Yes."

Wyatt nodded with a smile, "So, this trip to the Desolate Domain’s Dan Dao City has been quite fruitful... Aside from acquiring a Monarch Level Immortal Method that combines attack, speed, and defense, and a Monarch Level Divine Ability, I’ve also obtained this Emperor Grade Immortal Artifact."

Although Wyatt also had two other Emperor Grade Immortal Artifacts, ’Xuan Yang Nine-Edged Ring’ and ’Xuan Yin Nine-Edged Ring.’

But those weren’t his.

And even if those two Emperor Grade Immortal Artifacts were his, it wouldn’t diminish the joy of obtaining that consumable Monarch Grade Immortal Artifact.

The latter, though it could only be used three times, each use exceeded the effectiveness of an ordinary Monarch Grade Immortal Artifact.

Not to mention compared to ordinary Emperor Grade Immortal Artifacts.

"Brother Wyatt, does this mean we don’t have to wait for them and can head back ourselves now?"

Leilany asked.

"No... we still need to wait for them. Although with that Emperor Grade Immortal Artifact, we don’t need to wait and can return safely by ourselves, there’s no need for that."

Wyatt said.

Actually, more than twenty days ago, Wyatt had the thought of returning to the Desolate Territory, back to the Taichi Immortal Sect.

But considering the potential dangers on the way back, he dismissed the idea.

It wasn’t that he was worried about top-tier sect people causing trouble, nor was he afraid of powerful loose cultivators making trouble, but he was concerned about encountering highway robbers on the way back.

Those people are desperados who wouldn’t hesitate to attack.

Previously, with Elder Ancestor Taichi around, they didn’t have to worry about encountering such people, but now that Elder Ancestor Taichi has fallen, caution is necessary.

So, Wyatt plans to return to the Desolate Territory with the people from the Thousand Spider Immortal Sect.

Wyatt believes that if he asks the Thousand Spider Immortal Sect to take them along back to the Desolate Territory, they certainly wouldn’t refuse, as it would be like earning a favor from him.

Not to mention the potential strong Central Family background that the Thousand Spider Immortal Sect suspects he might have, even just his alchemical skills would be enough for them to do him this favor.

Of course, Wyatt hasn’t mentioned this to the Sect Leader of the Thousand Spider Immortal Sect yet; he plans to discuss it after the Dan Dao Convention concludes.

"Now, we just wait for the Dan Dao Convention to finish."

Upon returning to the lively Dan Dao Plaza, Wyatt thought to himself.

In the following few days, Wyatt intentionally got closer to Milana Harrington of the Merciful Voyage Immortal Sect in hopes of persuading her to leave...

But Milana remained as stubborn as before, unyielding to the end.

"Looks like... I’ll need to find an opportunity to visit the Merciful Voyage Immortal Sect, to give her master a little intimidation, so that her master won’t dare to harm her!"

Milana’s stubbornness left Wyatt feeling quite helpless.

However, though helpless, Wyatt was no longer worried about Milana’s safety.

Because now, he had enough ’confidence’ to protect Milana.

And his confidence came from the consumable Monarch Grade Immortal Artifact he had just acquired.

"Just using that artifact once, I would have the power to destroy the entire Merciful Voyage Immortal Sect... With such strength to intimidate her master, I truly don’t believe her master would dare to stubbornly act against her!"

Wyatt Barnes was full of confidence.

Of course, Wyatt was also worried that Milana Harrington’s master might act first, leaving him without the chance to protect Milana.

So, he sought out the Sect Leader of the Merciful Voyage Immortal Sect, Milena Nangle.

"Sect Leader Nangle."

Wyatt Barnes greeted Milena Nangle with a smile.

Although Milena Nangle had once sent people to kill him, holding a grudge against him.

However, since Milena Nangle hadn’t informed Milana’s master of Milana’s affair with him and temporarily preserved Milana’s status, he was quite grateful to Milena Nangle for this.

"Alchemist Barnes."

Facing Wyatt Barness’ smiling greeting, Milena Nangle hurriedly responded with a smile, simultaneously asking, "You... looking for me for something?"

Having witnessed Wyatt’s alchemy skills and subtly aware of Wyatt’s potential influential background, Milena Nangle naturally could no longer view Wyatt with hostility as before.

She had even thought:

If possible, she was willing to facilitate a union between Wyatt Barnes and Milana Harrington, as she believed Wyatt would be a good match.

Having traversed across her long life, she had seen many people; though she hadn’t interacted much with Wyatt, she could still see Wyatt’s excellent character, deeming him a man worthy of entrustment.

Even though she wasn’t sure whether Wyatt truly had a powerful family background from the Central region.

But, even if Wyatt didn’t have such a background, just his alchemy skills alone, if he was willing to join the Merciful Voyage Immortal Sect, she would still be willing to support Wyatt Barnes and Milana Harrington’s union.

Moreover, she believed that would surely become a celebrated anecdote in the history of the Merciful Voyage Immortal Sect.

"Hmm."

Wyatt nodded, then straightforwardly said, "Sect Leader Nangle, you are well-aware of the matters between me and your sect’s disciple, Milana Harrington. I am also very grateful for the protection you have given her."

"However, I also know that even if you intend to protect her, you won’t be able to do so for long... because sooner or later, the truth will come to light."

"The main reason I came to you this time is to ask for your help in keeping an eye on her master... When her master learns about us and intends to harm her, you are to stop them. If her father, the Immortal Lord of your Merciful Voyage Immortal Sect, insists on aiding her master, you should mention my name, Wyatt Barnes!"

"Tell them: if they don’t want to die, they should best experience the abilities of those around me, Wyatt Barnes, before they attempt to harm Milana. By then, Sect Leader Nangle, you can send someone to the Merciful Voyage Immortal Sect to notify me, and I will let my people meet them!"

"If Milana remains unharmed, they would have saved themselves a life..."

"Once Milana is harmed, they will inevitably die!"

As Wyatt finished speaking, a chilling tone penetrated his words.

"Hiss—"

Hearing Wyatt’s words, Milena Nangle gasped, looking at Wyatt with newfound fear.

Wyatt’s words further validated her belief:

Wyatt Barnes indeed had a powerful family background from the Central region, otherwise, he wouldn’t dare speak as he did.

"I will remember Alchemist Barnes’ words... If they dare to act against Milana, I will dissuade them, buying time for Milana and for themselves!"

Milena Nangle nodded seriously, secretly breathing a sigh of relief.

In truth, her greatest worry was exactly as Wyatt had mentioned...

If only her junior sister acted, she could still have the power to intervene.

But if her junior sister’s father, the Immortal Lord of their Merciful Voyage Immortal Sect, intervened, then even if she wanted to protect Milana, it would be challenging to do so.

Milana was her biological niece; naturally, she did not wish for any harm to befall Milana.

She understood that with the promise Wyatt had just given, her niece Milana effectively gained a ’life-saving charm’...

Though, that consumable Monarch Grade Immortal Artifact, which could be used three times, was very precious, equating to three life-saving charms.

Yet, for Milana’s safety, Wyatt was still willing to use it once.

In the blink of an eye, several days passed.

And on this particular day, it was also the final day of the Dan Dao Conference.

On the last day of the Dan Dao Conference, alchemist masters from various regions ceased their exchanges.

According to the usual practice at the Dan Dao Conference, at this time, it was customary for the Monarch Grade alchemists from the Alchemist Alliance to present a summary, highlighting the most outstanding alchemist masters of this Dan Dao Conference.

Among them, the name ’Wyatt Barnes’ prominently appeared, attracting the most attention.

He even overshadowed the previous reputation of ’Charles Davidson’ from the last Dan Dao Conference!

"As everyone knows, the last Dan Dao Conference held in the six southeastern regions, thirty years ago, saw the rise of Alchemist Charles Davidson... Thereafter, Alchemist Davidson was acclaimed as the ’Number One Top-grade Alchemist’ of the six southeastern regions!"

"However, in this instance, Alchemist Wyatt Barnes from the Taoyi Immortal Sect in the Desolate Territory, emerged like a ’Dark Horse’, coming out of nowhere!"
