Legend of Wyatt

Chapter 2644: Merciful Voyage Immortal Sect

Obtaining a bottle of Hidden Pill from the Nine Nether County Governor ’John Tian’ and two bottles of Spirit Essence Pill from the first Sacrificial Officer ’Tony Campbell’, Wyatt Barnes’ focus returned to cultivation.

Now, the two Daai Law Golden Immortals of Nine Nether County hope that he can further enhance his cultivation in a short period.

And he also wants to quickly elevate his cultivation.

It can be said that their desires align perfectly.

Of course, Wyatt Barnes knows:

Between John Tian, Tony Campbell, and himself, it’s just a matter of mutual benefit.

"The Sixteen County Martial Competition... That King Cooper’s Mansion will reward the top three with Daai Law Pill from their County City’s middle-grade Immortal Pill. I wonder what rewards King Cooper’s Mansion will give to the top three in the Sixteen County Martial Competition?"

Returning to the innermost stone chamber of Dragon Abyss, Wyatt Barnes is very curious about this.

Feeling curious, he also has a bit of anticipation.

When Wyatt Barnes consumed the lower-grade Immortal Pill ’Hidden Pill’ and immersed himself in cultivation again.

Swoosh!

Accompanied by a swift gust, a person walked out of the penultimate stone chamber in the Dragon Abyss depth, left Dragon Abyss, and headed straight for a courtyard in the County Governor’s Mansion.

This person was none other than ’Felix Campbell’!

Now, after leaving his cultivation chamber and Dragon Abyss, Felix Campbell immediately went to find his adopted father, the first Sacrificial Officer of the Nine Nether County Governor’s Mansion ’Tony Campbell’!

"Father!"

Upon seeing Tony Campbell again, Felix Campbell respectfully greeted.

"What’s the matter?"

Tony Campbell lifted his eyelids slightly, lazily looking at Felix Campbell.

Compared to before, his attitude towards Felix Campbell has undergone a significant change.

Back then, he acknowledged Felix Campbell as his ’adopted son’ because he admired Felix Campbell’s talent.

But now, Felix Campbell’s once proud talent pales in comparison to Wyatt Barnes from Bloodshade City, making him feel very disappointed in his adopted son and lacking previous enthusiasm.

Felix Campbell also noticed this.

"Wyatt Barnes..."

Thus, Felix Campbell now hates Wyatt Barnes with clenched teeth.

"Father, I want to go out for a trip... May I ask you to order an inner mansion elder to accompany me?"

Though he hates Wyatt Barnes fiercely, Felix Campbell dare not show it.

Because he knows that Wyatt Barnes now holds a higher place in his father’s eyes than he does.

"Where do you plan to go?"

Tony Campbell’s eyes flashed sharply, asking.

"Not sure yet... I just want to go out for some experience."

Felix Campbell said.

Right now, even if Felix Campbell’s status in Tony Campbell’s eyes has fallen below that of Wyatt Barnes.

Felix Campbell is still Tony Campbell’s adopted son.

So, Tony Campbell didn’t reject Felix Campbell’s request, and he quickly ordered an inner mansion elder from the County Governor’s Mansion to accompany Felix Campbell, ensuring his safety.

After Felix Campbell and the inner mansion elder left the Nine Nether County City, they unintentionally, yet intentionally headed toward Bloodshade City, one of the nine cities under Nine Nether County’s jurisdiction.

Bloodshade City is the first place Wyatt Barnes arrived at after ascending to Spiritual Heaven.

"I have to see what Wyatt Barnes’ origins are... Previously, I have never heard of such a character in Nine Nether County."

This trip aims to investigate Wyatt Barnes’ ’background’.

Felix Campbell feels that with Wyatt Barnes’ talent and strength, he couldn’t be an unknown figure in the distant Bloodshade City nor remain obscure before reaching Nine Nether County City and entering the County Governor’s Mansion.

"Wyatt Barnes might be secretly fostered by Bloodshade City’s City Lord ’Manuel Willow’ to deal with my father... If I can confirm this, my father will surely root him out and kill Wyatt Barnes!"

This is precisely Felix Campbell’s motive for visiting Bloodshade City.

He’s well aware of the grudges between Bloodshade City’s City Lord ’Manuel Willow’ and his father.

This Bloodshade City trip aims to confirm if Wyatt Barnes is a secret weapon cultivated by Manuel Willow against his father, his father will deem Wyatt Barnes a threat and won’t let him continue growing!

"If it can be confirmed that Wyatt Barnes is nurtured by Manuel Willow against my father... Even if the middle-grade Immortal Pill ’Daai Law Pill’ greatly tempts my father, my father, after weighing pros and cons, will surely eliminate Wyatt Barnes before the Sixteen County Martial Competition starts!"

"Considering King Cooper’s Mansion values the rewards set for the Sixteen County Martial Competition, if Wyatt Barnes shines and ranks top three, King Cooper’s Mansion might retain him."

"By then, even if my father wants to kill him, to root out the threat... it will be harder than ascending to heaven!"

Thinking of this, Felix Campbell’s eyes shone further.

...

In a place extremely remote from Nine Nether County.

A vast area, perpetually shrouded in mist, lush and verdant, filled with birdsong and fragrant flowers, resembling a fairyland, atop a peak stands a graceful lady like a ’fairy’.

The woman stood at the peak, her gaze looking toward the direction of Nine Nether County, her eyes vaguely a bit dazed...

This woman, dressed in a light purple plain dress, had brows like emerald feathers, skin like white snow, and a waist as slender as a willow branch.

Though her cheeks were covered by a thin veil, her slightly cool autumn eyes and the pure, transcendent aura about her were enough to make everything around her dim in comparison.

Furthermore, her cheeks, although concealed by the veil.

But, because of the semi-transparency of the veil, her outlines beneath could faintly be seen, barely revealing the perfect curves of her cheeks.

It made one irresistibly tempted to lift the veil and glimpse the beauty beneath.

One could imagine, if her charm was already this profound with the veil on.

If the veil was removed, the face freed from its constraint would be exceedingly beautiful, capable of captivating an entire nation...

"If I had known I’d develop a heart demon because of him... I would have killed him that day!"

Suddenly, the woman’s lips moved slightly beneath the veil, muttering to herself.

However, as she continued speaking to herself, she appeared somewhat unsure...

If she had another chance, would she really have killed him?

Even she could not be certain.

After all, the mistake was hers, not his.

"Third senior sister, third senior sister..."

All of a sudden, a voice as pleasing as silver bells rang out. A young girl in green clothing came stepping through the air from below the mountain peak, seeming like a green rainbow, arriving by the side of the woman in the purple dress in an instant.

"Alisson, why are you here?"

The woman in the purple dress looked at the girl in green, allowing a few traces of doting affection to show in her eyes.

"Third senior sister, why do I feel... ever since you came back a year ago, you’ve been gloomy and unhappy? Didn’t you retrieve the sect’s Immortal Artifact, ’World Cleansing Duster’? Isn’t that something to be happy about? Master and the senior uncles have been praising you."

The girl in green blinked her lively eyes and asked.

Listening to the girl in green, the identity of the woman in the purple dress immediately became apparent:

It was Milana Harrington, the woman Wyatt Barnes encountered when he was within the ’small world’ left behind by the Immortal King expert of the Joyful Zen Sect in the southern mountains of Bloodshade City!

At that time, due to unexpected circumstances, though they had no marital name, they became husband and wife in reality.

"Moreover... I just heard from Senior Uncle that in next month’s sect conference, they plan to name you as the successor to Sect Leader, and that after she steps down, you are to inherit the position of Sect Leader."

The girl in green continued to speak.

"Is that really what Senior Uncle said?"

Milana Harrington’s eyes flashed as she asked.

"Really! I heard it with my own ears!"

The girl in green nodded vigorously.

Hearing the words of the girl in green, Milana Harrington couldn’t help but let out a silent sigh.

According to the rules of the Merciful Voyage Immortal Sect, to become the Sect Leader, in addition to having talent and strength, there was one basic requirement:

The person must be of pure body!

And she, a year ago, after coming out from the small world left by the Immortal King expert of the Joyful Zen Sect, was no longer of pure body.

In other words, she was destined to be unfit for the position of Sect Leader of the Merciful Voyage Immortal Sect.

"Alisson... where is Senior Uncle now?"

After learning from the girl in green the whereabouts of the Sect Leader of the Merciful Voyage Immortal Sect, Milana Harrington’s purple dress fluttered, and she, like a purple butterfly, left the mountain she stood upon.

"Senior Uncle."

In a spacious courtyard on the mountainside, Milana Harrington met the current Sect Leader of the Merciful Voyage Immortal Sect, who was also her Senior Uncle.

"Milana... did you come to see Senior Uncle for something?"

The Sect Leader of the Merciful Voyage Immortal Sect was an elegant and beautiful woman, dressed in a white robe embroidered with many ’lotus thrones.’ Upon seeing Milana Harrington, she was all warmth, her eyes gentle and kind.

It was like a senior watching the most outstanding among their juniors.

Although Milana Harrington was not her direct disciple, she was the disciple of her junior sister under the same master and was the one she was most satisfied with among the younger disciples in the Merciful Voyage Immortal Sect.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t have planned to establish Milana Harrington as the successor to become Sect Leader of the Merciful Voyage Immortal Sect.

The successor to the Sect Leader was to inherit the position of Sect Leader of the Merciful Voyage Immortal Sect!

"Senior Uncle, I heard that you plan to establish me as the successor to the Sect Leader in next month’s sect conference... I came to ask you to withdraw this decision!"

Milana Harrington straightforwardly stated.

"Hmm?"

Hearing Milana Harrington’s words, the Sect Leader of the Merciful Voyage Immortal Sect was initially taken aback, then asked in confusion: "Milana, what do you mean by this? Do you not want to become the next Sect Leader of the Merciful Voyage Immortal Sect?"

"I remember, I heard from your master... Becoming the Sect Leader of the Merciful Voyage Immortal Sect has been your wish and goal since childhood."
