Legend of Wyatt

Chapter 2742: Chapter 2742: Thousand Spider Immortal Sect

"Lord Patel?"

In the pavilion at the rear yard of the Fourth Prince’s palace, the two people sitting at the stone table exchanged a glance after listening to the old man’s report, and their pupils shrunk in unison.

"Are you sure they were looking for Lord Patel?"

The Fourth Prince, ’Judson Dragonsmith,’ came to his senses, looked at the old man, and asked in a deep voice.

"Your Highness the Fourth Prince, you know that Lord Patel is an Immortal Lord... I... I dare not follow them too close to the residence of Lord Patel."

The old man said with a bitter smile.

An Immortal Lord, as long as he gets a little closer, can discover his presence.

Once discovered, unless the Immortal Lord shows great mercy and overlooks his actions, he would at best be crippled if not dead!

"Alright, you may leave."

As Judson Dragonsmith waved his hand, the old man withdrew.

If Wyatt Barnes were here, he would surely recognize at a glance:

The old man who had withdrawn was the same one who accompanied Judson Dragonsmith and the Fourth Daughter of the Campbell Family, Jenny Campbell, to the Flowing Years Inn to find him. He was also the person guarding Judson Dragonsmith.

Just like the old man beside the Seventh Prince, ’Kye Dragonsmith,’ this old man was also a Daai Law Golden Immortal attendant granted to Judson Dragonsmith, the Fourth Prince, by the emperor of Ascendant Dragon Celestial Nation.

"Fourth Brother, it seems our Thirteenth Brother is indeed restless... Not only is he closely associated with that disciple suspected to be from a sect outside the Desolate Territory, but he also brought that person to see Lord Patel. What exactly is he planning?"

The one sitting with Judson Dragonsmith was none other than the Seventh Prince, ’Kye Dragonsmith.’

Kye Dragonsmith spoke with a sudden chill in his gaze, murderous intent overflowing.

"Thirteenth Brother shouldn’t dare to boldly bring someone to meet Lord Patel... If he truly brought that person, it means Lord Patel wanted to see him."

Judson Dragonsmith speculated.

Now, his expression also looked rather unpleasant.

"Back then, if not for Lord Patel... he’d have long been dead! How can he still skip around in front of us like he does now?"

Kye Dragonsmith said in a deep voice.

"Don’t talk about what happened back then... That matter upset Father too. He explicitly told us both that if we lay a hand on Thirteenth Brother again, neither of us would have any chance of the throne."

Judson Dragonsmith said.

"Father, after all, believes Thirteenth Brother might be his own ’blood’... Fortunately, he can’t be one hundred percent sure Thirteenth Brother is his own blood, otherwise, we might as well not exist."

Kye Dragonsmith said, reluctantly admitting that in all aspects, he was a notch inferior to his Thirteenth Brother.

According to Judson Dragonsmith, the ones who nearly killed the Thirteenth Prince, ’Crue Dragonsmith,’ were dispatched by him and Kye Dragonsmith.

Later, the emperor of Ascendant Dragon Celestial Nation learned of the matter and furiously scolded the two of them.

Subsequently, the emperor visited the white-robed youth who saved Crue Dragonsmith, confirming that the youth was an Immortal Lord and also confirming that the youth would not intervene in the inheritance of their Ascendant Dragon Celestial Nation’s Imperial Family, so he was reassured.

All this was told to them by the emperor of Ascendant Dragon Celestial Nation, who was also their father.

"Thirteenth Brother and that person might not necessarily be going to see Lord Patel... And even if they are going, so what? Lord Patel made it clear to Father back then that he would not interfere in the inheritance of our Ascendant Dragon Celestial Nation’s Imperial Family. Such an Immortal Lord should not go back on his word."

Judson Dragonsmith said.

"Even if he does go back on his word, he must consider the ’Dragon Warrior Immortal Sect’ behind our Ascendant Dragon Celestial Nation... What if he’s an Immortal Lord? Can he oppose the Dragon Warrior Immortal Sect and the other two Immortal Sects?"

"The rule that Immortal Lords cannot meddle in the inheritance of various Imperial Families within the Desolate Territory was jointly established by the three Immortal Sects, including Dragon Warrior Immortal Sect... If he rashly breaks the rule, not only will Dragon Warrior Immortal Sect not spare him, but neither will Taiyi Immortal Sect nor Thousand Spider Immortal Sect."

Kye Dragonsmith snorted coldly: "I think, back then, the reason he stated that way before Father was because he feared the Dragon Warrior Immortal Sect, feared Taiyi Immortal Sect, and Thousand Spider Immortal Sect."

"Certainly so. The intimidation from our Ascendant Dragon Celestial Nation alone wouldn’t affect an Immortal Lord like him."

Judson Dragonsmith agreed.

"I heard... the Fourth Daughter of the Campbell Family went to Thousand Spider Immortal Sect to find the Third Daughter of the Campbell Family?"

Kye Dragonsmith suddenly turned to Judson Dragonsmith and asked.

"Yes."

Judson Dragonsmith didn’t find it surprising that Kye Dragonsmith knew about this matter, since his little cousin always acts very boldly, making a trip to Thousand Spider Immortal Sect that would surely be known to all.

"For the Third Daughter of the Campbell Family to investigate the ’background’ of the youth with the surname Wyatt, it shouldn’t be difficult."

Kye Dragonsmith squinted his eyes slightly, spoke with a faint smile.

"Just wait a little while and we’ll know."

Judson Dragonsmith said indifferently, although his words seemed unconcerned, the expectant look in his eyes undoubtedly betrayed his urgent mood.

Time, quietly passed.

...

In the blink of an eye, half a year had elapsed.

Thousand Spider Immortal Sect, as one of the three major Immortal Sects in the Desolate Territory, controlled one of the only three lower-grade Immortal Crystal veins in the Desolate Territory.

Although, the three lower-grade Immortal Crystal veins within the Desolate Territory are small veins, they cannot be compared to the supreme-grade Immortal Stone veins.

No matter how large a supreme-grade Immortal Stone vein may be, in terms of value, it cannot match any of the three lower-grade Immortal Crystal veins.

The Qianzhu Immortal Sect’s sect headquarters is situated near one of these lower-grade Immortal Crystal veins.

Because of this, the concentration of spiritual energy at the Qianzhu Immortal Sect’s sect headquarters is extraordinarily high.

Especially in the area close to the lower-grade Immortal Crystal vein, the cultivation grounds for the Qianzhu Immortal Sect’s upper echelon and core disciples, the spiritual energy is even more concentrated.

And now, within a cultivation ground of a certain core disciple, situated in an expansive courtyard halfway up a mountain.

A graceful figure stands beside an artificial mountain in the front yard, holding a message talisman. As the message talisman disappears, the information within it floods into her ears...

"It’s actually him!"

After the message talisman disappears, the woman’s expression by the artificial mountain turns somewhat peculiar.

"Third Sister, is there any news?"

At this moment, another graceful figure approaches from afar, coming beside the woman by the artificial mountain, asking with an expectant expression.

If Wyatt Barnes were here, he would certainly recognize at a glance:

This woman is none other than the Campbell Family’s fourth young mistress ’Jenny Campbell’, who once tried to forcibly take him back to the Campbell Family as a manservant.

The woman by the artificial mountain, called ’Third Sister’ by Jenny Campbell, has an obvious identity — she’s the Campbell Family’s third young mistress and also a disciple of the previous Sect Leader of Qianzhu Immortal Sect, the contemporary Sect Leader’s junior sister:

Annie Campbell!

Though they are biological sisters, Annie Campbell is far superior to Jenny Campbell in both physical figure and appearance.

Most importantly, Annie Campbell’s aura is not something Jenny Campbell can compare to.

In front of Annie Campbell, Jenny Campbell is like a little maid.

"Jenny, don’t think about seeking revenge on him again, and don’t offend him..."

Annie Campbell suddenly looks at the expectant Jenny Campbell, and says solemnly: "Otherwise, even if he kills you, don’t blame your sister for not avenging you!"

"Third Sister...he...is his background really that significant?"

Nearly as Annie Campbell finishes speaking, Jenny Campbell’s face turns pale, yet she still grudgingly asks a question.

"I don’t want to repeat myself."

Annie Campbell says.

Moments later, seemingly realizing her words may have been too harsh, Annie Campbell looks at the deathly pale Jenny Campbell, saying: "Jenny, the past conflict between you and him was entirely caused by you. He did not kill you, showing mercy... Listen to your Third Sister, don’t be his enemy in the future."

"Understood, Third Sister."

Jenny Campbell quickly responds, but in her heart, she resolves not to seek revenge on the purple-robed youth she loathes.

"Go back to your room... in a couple of days, I’ll send you back to the family."

Annie Campbell says.

Jenny Campbell agrees once more, then obediently returns to her room, completely obedient to her Third Sister, Annie Campbell.

"Didn’t expect it to be such a coincidence... He turned out to be at the Capital City of the Ascendant Dragon Celestial Nation."

And after Jenny Campbell leaves, Annie Campbell shakes her head, then her eyes light up with curiosity, "I want to see... What kind of man is he, who took advantage of Milana, yet could make Milana request me to take care of and safeguard him?"

"However, Milana’s man is indeed remarkable... Even a Immortal Lord expert from Merciful Voyage Immortal Sect found him, yet he managed to escape. I have no idea where he got the ’Void Escape Talisman’ carved by an Immortal King expert."

"I wonder if Milana would be jealous if she knew there was another woman beside him..."

As Annie Campbell murmurs to herself, her beautiful eyes reveal a mischievous smile.

Listening to Annie Campbell’s self-dialogue...

She clearly also knows the Merciful Voyage Immortal Sect disciple ’Milana Harrington’.

Moreover, her relationship with Milana seems not simple.

Also, listening to Annie Campbell’s self-dialogue, she has clearly discovered many things about Wyatt Barnes...

At least, the incidents that occurred during the martial arts gathering of the sixteen counties under the King Cooper’s domain in the Ascendant Dragon Celestial Nation have been learned by her through Qianzhu Immortal Sect’s intelligence network.

"Luckily, he did not kill Jenny... Otherwise, even if he is Milana’s man whom she entrusted me to take care of and safeguard, I wouldn’t forgive him easily!"

With such thoughts, Annie Campbell’s eyes reveal not only gratitude but also a hint of coldness.

Jenny Campbell, who has returned to her room, remains unaware:

The purple-clothed youth she deeply loathes actually lacks any strong sect background outside the Desolate Territory.

Her Third Sister advises her not to provoke him entirely because:

The purple-clothed youth is the man her Third Sister’s best friend, who is akin to a sister, entrusted her to take care of and safeguard...

Sometimes, the world is just so small.
