Legend of Wyatt-Chapter 1606: Demon Cultivator?
Chapter 1606: Chapter 1606: Demon Cultivator?
Myles Swayer is the second young master of the Swayer Family, and he was the one who almost caused Beau Swayer to lose his life back in those days.
As for Hunter Swayer, he is Myles Swayer’s father, and he holds a position in the Swayer Family just below that of the Family Head, Micah Swayer, and is known as the ’Second Master Hunter’.
The Swayer Family appears united on the surface, but in reality, it is divided into two factions.
One faction is led by Family Head Micah Swayer.
The other faction is headed by Second Master Hunter Swayer.
"In fact, the opposition from Hunter Swayer’s faction didn’t start with his generation... In the previous generation, his father, just like him, established a faction within the Swayer Family and opposed my grandfather, who was the Family Head in the previous generation."
Beau Swayer continued to explain.
"The Netherworld Sect also rose during the prime of Hunter Swayer’s father... According to the intelligence from our faction, the Netherworld Sect was actually supported by Hunter Swayer’s father, and at critical times, it would become a ’dagger’ in Hunter Swayer’s hands, stabbing into our faction’s ’chest’."
At this point, Beau Swayer’s expression became a bit serious, "All along, our faction wanted to eliminate the Netherworld Sect, but we couldn’t find a way... All because Hunter Swayer’s faction has been secretly protecting them. If we really take action, Hunter Swayer’s faction might take desperate measures for the Netherworld Sect and completely break with us."
"By then, even if our faction wins in the end, the Swayer Family will inevitably suffer heavy losses... By then, the Swayer Family might fall to the level of a seventh-rate force like the current Netherworld Sect."
Beau Swayer expressed his concerns.
"I see."
After listening to Beau Swayer explain the ramifications, Wyatt Barnes’s expression also softened; understanding why Beau Swayer had taken the stance he did was justifiable under the circumstances.
"So, even if you seek out the Family Head, he might not be willing to help me?"
Wyatt Barnes asked.
"Mr. Barnes, I really want to help you, and I believe my father feels the same... However, even my father has to consider the bigger picture. But perhaps my father can come up with some other way to rescue your brother and loved ones from the Netherworld Sect without provoking Hunter Swayer’s faction."
Beau Swayer spoke, his face showing some apologetic emotion.
"Most of the people in the Netherworld Sect are Demon Cultivators, naturally brutal... It’s best not to delay this matter; otherwise, your brother and loved ones might be in danger. I’ll go seek help from my father now!"
With that, Beau Swayer prepared to turn and leave to find his father, Family Head Micah Swayer.
"Hold on!"
At that moment, Wyatt Barnes called out to Beau Swayer, his eyes flashing as he asked, "Did you just say... most of the people in the Netherworld Sect are Demon Cultivators?"
Demon Cultivators!
Perhaps to others, they are extremely terrifying beings, naturally brutal and extremely vicious.
However, to Wyatt Barnes, they are merely ’meat on the chopping block’!
Of course, this was only true for Demon Cultivators whose cultivation was at most one great realm higher than Wyatt’s. If they were two great realms higher, there would be nothing Wyatt could do—he would instead become the ’fish on the chopping block’.
All this was due to the ’Demon Sealing Monument’ in his possession, which could only deal with Demon Cultivators up to one great realm higher than him!
"Yes."
Although he didn’t know why Wyatt Barnes took an interest in this, Beau Swayer nodded and said, "Most of the elders and disciples of the Netherworld Sect are Demon Cultivators... As for the strongest in the Netherworld Sect, including the Sect Leader, the Grand Elders, and a few Vice Sect Leaders, they are all Demon Cultivators! As Demon Cultivators, the Sect Leader and Grand Elders, although just breaking through to the Saint Realm a few decades ago and considered the weakest in the Saint Realm, have far superior combat strength compared to typical low-level Saint Realm Martial Artists or Taoist Cultivators."
"This is also an advantage of Demon Cultivators in this regard! Their combat strength is renowned throughout the Martial Dao Sacred Land."
Beau Swayer continued.
Wyatt Barnes was already aware of what Beau Swayer outlined.
"Demon Cultivators? Strong combat strength?"
Yet, what Beau Swayer mentioned sounded like a joke to Wyatt Barnes.
To ordinary Martial Artists or Taoist Cultivators, Demon Cultivators might indeed be powerful.
But to him, who possesses the Demon Sealing Monument, they are trivial... of course, those whose cultivation was only one great realm higher than his.
"Young Master Beau... to be honest, even if you seek your father, what are the odds?"
Wyatt Barnes’s gaze flashed as he turned towards Beau Swayer and asked.
"Mr. Barnes, although you’re not much older than me, I regard you as an elder in my heart, and I do not wish to deceive you... The odds, I’m afraid, are not even 30%."
Beau Swayer sighed, feeling quite guilty.
"If that’s the case, there’s no need to tell your father about this matter."
Wyatt Barnes stated.
"Mr. Barnes?"
Beau Swayer was stunned, unsure why Wyatt Barnes said this—had he become angry?
"I will handle this matter."
After saying this to Beau Swayer, Wyatt Barnes left, disappearing from Beau Swayer’s sight in an instant.
"Young Master Beau, I know you will still inform your father about this matter... Nonetheless, I appreciate your gesture. Even if you notify your father, even if he wants to help me, I hope you all will hold your position. Perhaps, when I return, I might give you an unexpected surprise."
As Beau Swayer was about to mention the issue to his father, Micah Swayer, he once again heard Wyatt Barnes’s voice in his ears.
Wyatt Barnes’s voice was filled with immense confidence.
At that moment, Beau Swayer was stunned, unsure of where Wyatt Barnes’s strong confidence came from.
On the other hand, after departing from the Swayer Family’s estate, Wyatt Barnes traversed through several streets in the capital city of Fletcher Kingdom, heading westward.
According to the Jade Slip sent by his brother, Trevor Baillie, during this period, he had been staying at a point operated by the Netherworld Sect in the capital city of Fletcher Kingdom.
This base of the Netherworld Sect in the capital was no secret; anyone on the street could direct you there.
As a seventh-rate force, though at the bottom, it still had Saint Realm powerhouses to back it... Therefore, the Netherworld Sect’s base in the capital was exceedingly luxurious, though not as grand as the Swayer Family’s estate, it was still expansive.
Arriving outside the Netherworld Sect’s base, Wyatt Barnes naturally didn’t use the front gate, opting instead to scale the walls and enter quietly.
With his current strength, unless a ’half-step Saint Realm’ or higher was present, no one could easily trace his movements.
