Legend of Wyatt-Chapter 1530: Evander Mullins’s Shock
Chapter 1530: Chapter 1530: Evander Mullins’s Shock
After leaving the Moon Radiance Sect’s forbidden area, Remy Mitchell immediately went to Abu Dunn’s residence in the Inner Sect area and inquired with the people there.
Soon, he learned that Abu Dunn had come out of seclusion some time ago and had interacted with the Inner Sect Elder ’Evander Mullins.’ Abu had left his residence yesterday and had not returned since.
Remy Mitchell knew in his heart that Abu Dunn would never return.
Simply because he was already dead!
"Evander Mullins!"
Leaving Abu Dunn’s residence, Remy Mitchell directly went to find Evander Mullins. As he arrived outside Mullins’ residence, he saw a familiar figure coming out.
"Elder Baillie?"
Seeing Trevor Baillie emerging from Evander Mullins’ residence, Remy Mitchell was somewhat surprised.
Today, shouldn’t Trevor Baillie and Evander Mullins be at odds?
After all, the junior brother acknowledged by Trevor Baillie hails from Hill Mountain City and is the disciple of Hill Mountain City’s City Lord, ’Tabo Garcia.’
The enmity between Tabo Garcia and Evander Mullins was something Remy Mitchell knew very well.
He had even thought that Trevor Baillie might come to him to give a nod and eliminate Evander Mullins.
If Trevor Baillie really came to him, he had no way to refuse.
Although Evander Mullins was also an Inner Sect elder of the Moon Radiance Sect, compared to Trevor Baillie, he was nothing.
To put it bluntly, Evander Mullins’ status in the Moon Radiance Sect compared to Trevor Baillie’s was not even worthy to shine Baillie’s shoes.
Who is Trevor Baillie?
A Three-Star Saint Marker!
Throughout the Nine Sect Alliance region, apart from the Saint Markers in the Shadow Mountain black market, there were only two Three-Star Saint Markers.
Because of this, whether Remy Mitchell or other Elder-Supremes of the Moon Radiance Sect, when facing Trevor Baillie, were polite and cautious, fearing that any trivial issue might displease him.
It was well known that in the eyes of the other eight sects and even the Shadow Mountain black market, Trevor Baillie was highly sought after.
In recent years, attempts had been made by the eight sects and Shadow Mountain black market to entice Trevor Baillie, but he rejected them... and the reason for his rejection was his sense of belonging to the Moon Radiance Sect and his gratitude for their care over the years.
Therefore, the high ranks of Moon Radiance Sect, including Remy Mitchell as Sect Leader, always maintained a certain decorum when dealing with Trevor Baillie.
Just like now, Remy Mitchell greeted Trevor Baillie with a rare gentle smile on his otherwise stern face.
"Sect Leader."
Upon seeing Remy Mitchell, Trevor Baillie was also somewhat surprised, "Sect Leader, are you here to see Elder Mullins as well?"
"Indeed."
Remy Mitchell nodded with a smile.
"Then I won’t disturb the Sect Leader."
After greeting Remy Mitchell, Trevor Baillie left.
Now that most of the day had passed, he wasn’t worried that Evander Mullins could still catch up with his junior brother who was on his way home.
Inside Evander Mullins’ residence, having just seen off Trevor Baillie, Mullins turned around and heard a stammering voice from behind, "Sect... Sect Leader!"
This stammering voice came from an Inner Sect disciple at the entrance of Mullins’ residence, who was also his named disciple.
Of course, a named disciple was essentially just a servant and couldn’t compare to a ’direct disciple.’
"Sect Leader?"
Hearing the stammering voice from behind, Evander Mullins was shocked and turned around immediately.
With just one glance, he saw a tall, authoritative middle-aged man standing not far away, looking at him calmly, "Elder Mullins."
"Sect Leader, why... why are you here?"
Seeing Remy Mitchell, Evander Mullins couldn’t help but show a hint of surprise on his face.
It should be known that before this, Remy Mitchell had never visited his residence.
Though he was an Inner Sect elder, within the Moon Radiance Sect’s Inner Sect elders, he was at the bottom tier and rarely had the opportunity to face the Sect’s decision-making body, let alone have the Sect Leader come to his residence in person.
For a moment, while surprised, Evander Mullins respectfully invited Remy Mitchell in, "Sect Leader, please."
Along the way, Evander Mullins was nodding and bowing, resembling a loyal dog ready to attack anyone at a command.
The current Evander Mullins was like a completely different person compared to the one who had shown off in Thames River City a while ago.
The difference was striking!
In the main hall of Mullins’ residence, Evander Mullins escorted Remy Mitchell to the principal seat while standing below.
Without ceremony, Remy Mitchell sat down, fully exhibiting the demeanor of a Sect Leader.
"Sect Leader, is there something you wish to discuss with me?"
Standing there anxiously, Evander Mullins inquired.
The Sect Leader specifically looking for him certainly made him feel honored, but as the initial excitement subsided, he realized it might not be so simple.
The Sect Leader looking for him must have a particular reason.
It couldn’t simply be to chat.
At once, Evander Mullins thought of Wyatt Barnes and Trevor Baillie, "Could it be that Trevor Baillie wanted the Sect Leader to eliminate me?"
At this thought, Evander Mullins’ heart trembled.
It’s a possibility he had considered before, but what could considering do?
Leave the Moon Radiance Sect?
Evander Mullins, having rooted himself in the Moon Radiance Sect all his life, was inherently resistant to seeking life elsewhere.
Because of this, he held onto a shred of hope, believing Trevor Baillie wouldn’t go that far.
After all, when Trevor Baillie came to knock some sense into him earlier, he was very cooperative and didn’t show any resistance.
"It should be because of something else."
Taking a deep breath, Evander Mullins, who was anxious at heart, began to console himself constantly.
"Did you look for Elder Abu Dunn after he left seclusion?"
Remy Mitchell glanced at Evander Mullins and asked indifferently.
"Yes."
Although he didn’t know why Remy Mitchell asked this, Evander Mullins nodded nonetheless.
This wasn’t any secret.
Many people in Abu Dunn’s residence knew that he had sought to meet Abu Dunn.
"Isn’t Abu Dunn out to hunt down Wyatt Barnes? Why would the Sect Leader suddenly ask about Abu Dunn..."
Evander Mullins found it somewhat strange.
"Did you know Elder Abu Dunn left yesterday?"
Remy Mitchell asked again.
"I didn’t know."
Evander Mullins shook his head, showing a bewildered look, "Sect Leader, did something happen to Elder Abu Dunn?"
He naturally knew about Abu Dunn leaving the sect yesterday in advance to lie in wait outside.
However, how could he possibly admit he knew?
After all, the conspiracy between him and Abu Dunn to kill Wyatt Barnes was not something that could be brought to the surface.
"Elder Abu Dunn is dead."
Remy Mitchell looked directly at Evander Mullins and said indifferently.
Elder Abu Dunn is dead!
When Remy Mitchell’s words reached Evander Mullins’ ears, it was like a bolt of lightning, leaving him stunned for a long time.
"Elder Abu Dunn... dead?"
When Evander Mullins came to his senses, he was shocked and bewildered, not knowing what to do.
Of course, this was Evander Mullins’ instinctive reaction.
And witnessing this, Remy Mitchell realized that Abu Dunn’s death likely had nothing to do with Evander Mullins... seeing Evander Mullins’ expression, it didn’t seem to be fake.
Yet, how could he have anticipated that Evander Mullins was frightened because he never imagined such a thing happening.
Abu Dunn was actually dead!
Evander Mullins knew what Abu Dunn went out to do.
Originally, in his view, Abu Dunn’s trip would surely achieve its goal and kill his dreaded foe ’Wyatt Barnes.’
He was already waiting for Abu Dunn’s return to hold a ’celebration feast.’
However, before Abu Dunn returned, the Sect Leader came looking for him first and brought him such a shocking piece of news.
"Abu Dunn went to kill Wyatt Barnes... and Trevor Baillie was with me the whole time, it’s impossible that he did it. So, that means someone else killed Elder Abu Dunn?"
Thinking of this, a wave of fear swept over Evander Mullins.
Of course, he never considered that Wyatt Barnes killed Abu Dunn.
Even if Wyatt Barnes had decent talent and had already advanced to ’Entering the Saint Realm,’ Evander Mullins still thought little of him.
From beginning to end, he saw Wyatt Barnes as a ’worm.’
If not for Trevor Baillie, Wyatt Barnes would have already died, even if not at his own hands, surely at the hands of a killer from the Shadow Mountain black market.
"Abu Dunn died... he must have offended some strong person on the way and was killed by that strong person! I wonder if, before the strong person killed him, he had already killed Wyatt Barnes."
Now, Evander Mullins’ concern wasn’t Abu Dunn’s death; he was more concerned about whether Wyatt Barnes was dead.
Abu Dunn’s life and death had nothing to do with him, and he didn’t care.
What he cared about was Wyatt Barnes’ survival.
With Wyatt Barnes alive, Evander Mullins couldn’t have a moment of peace.
From beginning to end, Evander Mullins never considered that Wyatt Barnes killed Abu Dunn, nor did he think that the ’strong person’ who killed Abu Dunn had anything to do with Wyatt Barnes.
In his eyes, Wyatt Barnes was just a ’country kid.’
How could a country kid have such a strong protector?
Of course, he didn’t rule out the possibility that Trevor Baillie had invited a strong protector for Wyatt Barnes, but then again, he found it unlikely.
If Trevor Baillie truly invited a strong protector capable of killing Abu Dunn, why would he spend half a day monitoring him, preventing him from leaving the sect to chase down Wyatt Barnes?
So, he excluded that possibility.
Thus, he thought it must be as he believed—a strong person with no relation to Wyatt Barnes killed Abu Dunn.
"Just know about this matter; don’t spread it around."
Remy Mitchell glanced at Evander Mullins lightly and vanished without a trace, in Evander Mullins’ repeated acknowledgments.
Meanwhile, Evander Mullins secretly wiped cold sweat from his brow.
"I hope Abu Dunn had already eliminated Wyatt Barnes before being killed... otherwise, I’ll have to go through a lot more trouble in the future."
Evander Mullins murmured.
"But Abu Dunn is unlucky too, having closed himself for so long, only to be killed the first time he stepped out... fortunately, it wasn’t me going after Wyatt Barnes this time. Otherwise, it might be me who died."
Thinking of this, Evander Mullins felt a lingering fear.
