Legend of Wyatt-Chapter 1616 Visiting Relatives

The temporary absent Swayer Family’s house guard, after entering the Swayer Family residence, did not return to cultivate.

His destination was the ’Inner Mansion’.

To be precise, it was the courtyard where Swayer Family’s Second Master, Hunter Swayer, resided.

"Second Master."

After reporting, the Swayer Family house guard successfully met with Hunter Swayer.

"What’s the matter? Anything unusual?"

With just one look, Hunter Swayer recognized the house guard he had stationed at the Swayer Family’s entrance, and he couldn’t help but ask.

At the Swayer Family’s entrance, he could always learn who had entered or left from the people he had placed there.

"Second Master, that Mr. Barnes has returned."

The house guard said.

"He’s only returning now?"

Hunter Swayer frowned.

He knew that some time ago, before an incident occurred at the Netherworld Sect’s capital city base, Wyatt Barnes had left the Swayer Family.

He even suspected whether the incident at the Netherworld Sect’s capital base was caused by Wyatt Barnes, since Wyatt was powerful enough to break into the top ten of the Heavenly List.

However, considering the strength of the person in charge of the Netherworld Sect’s base, Samuel Campbell, he felt that Wyatt might not be Samuel’s match.

"Hmm."

The house guard nodded, then continued, "This time, he’s brought eight people with him."

"Eight people?"

Hunter Swayer frowned, "Who are they?"

"That, I’m not clear about."

The house guard shook his head.

"Alright, I understand. You may withdraw."

Hunter acknowledged and waved the house guard away.

After the house guard left, Hunter Swayer’s brow furrowed deeply, and his face turned extremely gloomy, "Where on earth did that Wyatt Barnes come from? He seems to have appeared out of nowhere in Fletcher Kingdom and ruined my plans!"

The ’plans’ Hunter mentioned naturally referred to the previous scheme to harm Beau Swayer.

That affair was not something his son could have carried out alone; he was the true mastermind behind it.

The news of Wyatt Barnes’ return quickly reached Family Head Micah Swayer and the Swayer Family’s first young master, Beau Swayer. They both came out almost simultaneously to greet Wyatt Barnes, "Mr. Barnes."

"Family Head Swayer, Young Master Beau."

Seeing Micah and Beau appear, Wyatt smiled and greeted them, then introduced the group behind him, including Trevor Baillie.

"Master Baillie."

Micah and Beau had long heard of Trevor Baillie and greeted him enthusiastically.

Of course, they didn’t overlook Taoi Romero and others, as they were all Wyatt Barnes’ friends and family.

Soon, Micah personally arranged accommodations for Trevor Baillie and the others near the courtyard where Beau resided.

This arrangement was naturally for the convenience of Wyatt’s group, so they wouldn’t have to travel across half of the Swayer premises to gather.

After settling Trevor Baillie and the others, Wyatt Barnes turned to Taoi Romero, "Uncle Romero, rest well today... tomorrow morning, I’ll go to the Floating Flame Sect with you."

"Alright."

Taoi Romero, though anxious, knew there was no rush at the moment. He nodded in agreement and went to his room to rest.

After saying goodbye to Trevor and the others, Wyatt returned with Micah and Beau to Beau’s courtyard.

"Mr. Barnes, you rescued them all by yourself?"

Beau said with a face full of surprise.

"Mr. Barnes, when you went to the Netherworld Sect, did you encounter the sect leader or the grand elder?"

Micah Swayer asked.

He was well acquainted with the Netherworld Sect and even wished to eradicate it entirely.

However, considering the connection between the Netherworld Sect and Hunter Swayer’s faction, he worried that if they rushed into action, Hunter’s faction would retaliate like cornered beasts, allying with the two Saint Realm experts of the Netherworld Sect against their faction.

If the two Netherworld Sect’s Saint Realm experts joined them, their faction would surely lose.

At that time, even if the Swayer Family’s Elder Ancestor intervened, their faction would already be severely weakened, making any further struggle against Hunter’s faction nearly impossible.

As the Swayer Family’s Elder Ancestor, even knowing Hunter’s faction was at fault, for the sake of the family, he wouldn’t overly reprimand Hunter’s faction.

This is the ’Law of the Jungle’ in the Martial Dao Sacred Land, where the weak are prey to the strong, and only the fittest survive!

For this reason, even if Wyatt asked for help, he couldn’t afford to gamble with their entire faction in what seemed like a sure loss.

However, Wyatt managing to rescue the people by himself was utterly unexpected for him.

"Yes, I did."

Wyatt nodded.

"You did?"

Upon hearing this, Micah and Beau couldn’t help but have their pupils contract sharply, "Then..."

"The Supreme Elder of the Netherworld Sect is dead... As for the Sect Leader, he has already fled. The Netherworld Sect today should essentially be defunct."

Wyatt Barnes said leisurely, his words sounding casual, as if discussing something trivial.

"What?!"

However, Wyatt’s words left both Micah Swayer and his son nearly petrified. They looked at Wyatt seriously, but found his expression genuine, not like someone lying.

"Young Master Beau, didn’t I tell you before I left, that I would give you a ’surprise’? Are you satisfied with this surprise?"

Wyatt looked at Beau Swayer and smiled.

Surprise!

Only then did Beau recall that the day Wyatt had refused their help in rescuing someone and left the Swayer Family alone, he did mention giving him a surprise.

However, he only thought that surprise was Wyatt’s destruction of the two Vice Sect Leaders of the Netherworld Sect.

Only now did he realize the surprise Wyatt was talking about was something he dared not even imagine... The death of the Supreme Elder of the Netherworld Sect, the fleeing of the Sect Leader, and the sect being effectively wiped out.

"It seems there must be an extremely powerful force behind this Wyatt Barnes."

Beau mused to himself, "Could it be a strong force from the Floating Flame Sect?"

Thinking of Wyatt and Miss Romero’s close relationship, and that she is the most beloved disciple of the Floating Flame Sect Leader, he couldn’t help but speculate this way.

Micah’s thoughts were not much different from Beau’s.

The Netherworld Sect had been destroyed!

Thinking this, his heart filled with excitement, and he looked at Wyatt with gratitude.

"Thank you, Mr. Barnes."

As the Family Head Swayer, Micah unexpectedly bowed to Wyatt in gratitude, an act that would shock many if spread.

Beau also bowed to express his thanks.

Wyatt, of course, was unaware of the thoughts of the Swayer father and son.

Wyatt looked at Micah and stated, "Family Head Swayer, my senior brother and a group of friends will likely take temporary shelter with your family. You..."

"Mr. Barnes, Master Baillie, and your friends can stay as long as they wish with us. I promise, our Swayer family will treat them as ’honored guests’, making them feel at home at all times." ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom

Before Wyatt could finish, Micah interrupted, promising solemnly.

"Thank you, Family Head Swayer."

Wyatt quickly expressed gratitude.

"No need for formalities, Mr. Barnes."

Micah smiled, "You are an Honorary Minister of our Swayer family, so it is my duty to do this."

"Mr. Barnes."

Suddenly, Beau seemed to remember something, his expression growing serious, "Earlier, I heard you and that Mr. Romero say that you will go to the Floating Flame Sect with him tomorrow?"

"Yes."

Wyatt nodded.

"Mr. Barnes."

At this point, Micah’s expression also grew serious, "You might not know, but during the time you were away, Hunter Swayer’s faction was rather active... Previously, when you left, they didn’t know your whereabouts, so it wasn’t an issue. But today, with your return, they’ve likely already caught wind of it."

"I worry that if you leave tomorrow, they might do harm to you."

Micah expressed his concern.

"Indeed."

Beau also nodded, "Even if Lord Crawford accompanies you tomorrow, it still wouldn’t be safe... We suspect that Hunter Swayer has already, more likely than not, pinned the deaths of the two Vice Sect Leaders from the Netherworld Sect on you. You’ve thwarted their plans repeatedly. If they find an opportunity, they won’t easily let it go."

"Is that all?"

Wyatt shook his head with a chuckle, seemingly unfazed.

"Mr. Barnes, this is no joking matter... That Hunter Swayer is a complete schemer. What you did for Beau last time already made him hold a grudge, and this time, even if it’s mere suspicion, he’ll certainly not let you go lightly."

Micah said with a bitter smile, "Even if Elder Crawford goes with you tomorrow, it won’t be safe. Hunter Swayer might act personally, and along with our family’s other Supreme Elder, two Great Saint Realm warriors striking together even Elder Crawford can hardly withstand."

"However, if you insist, Mr. Barnes, I can accompany you along with Elder Crawford."

Seeing Wyatt still not taking it seriously, Micah took a deep breath and said.

"Family Head Swayer, I appreciate your kindness, but there’s no need."

Wyatt shook his head, showing a hint of confidence, "As long as you spread the word about the ’purpose’ of our trip to the Floating Flame Sect, even if Hunter Swayer had ten times the courage, he wouldn’t dare to make a move against us."

"Purpose? What purpose?"

Seemingly affected by Wyatt’s confidence, Micah couldn’t help but ask.

Beau also looked at Wyatt curiously.

"My Uncle Romero is the father of Miss Romero from the Floating Flame Sect! If word spreads that I’m accompanying my Uncle Romero on a family visit to the Floating Flame Sect, dare Hunter Swayer act rashly?"

Wyatt said with a faint smile.

Hearing this, the Swayer father and son were struck as if by a bombshell, taking a while to recover their senses.

"That Mr. Romero is... is Miss Romero’s father?"

Beau stared wide-eyed in shock.
