Legend of Wyatt-Chapter 1651: Deliberate Retaliation

Upon hearing Karina Hanson’s words, Wyatt Barnes couldn’t help but furrow his brow, "Was it a deliberate act of revenge?"

The reason Wyatt spoke this way was naturally due to Juan Hanson’s identity.

Juan Hanson was not only the Supreme Elder of the Anderson Manor but also the grandfather of Yearly Hanson, and Yearly was killed by the mysterious powerhouse behind Karina Hanson’s friend.

"Yes."

Karina nodded, then spoke with a heavy expression: "That Juan Hanson, during Yearly Hanson’s lifetime, treated me very well, like his own granddaughter... However, after Yearly was killed, his attitude toward me changed."

"At that time, he asked me who the person was that took away Sister Jovie, and I said I didn’t know... Even if I truly didn’t know, even if I did know, I couldn’t possibly tell him! Since that moment, he became much colder towards me, until that one time, he asked me to come to him, and I met the Junior House Master of the Sky-scraping Mansion."

As she spoke, Karina’s face grew increasingly unpleasant.

"I really can’t understand, it was obviously Yearly Hanson who sought his own demise, actually attempting to plot against Sister Jovie, he deserved death! But Juan seemed to think Yearly was innocent and was determined to find the mysterious powerhouse who rescued Sister Jovie and avenge Yearly."

Karina still couldn’t figure this out.

"Julia, you’re too innocent."

Wyatt shook his head and said, "No matter what Yearly did, he was still Juan Hanson’s own grandson, a crucial person to him... Whatever Yearly did, it doesn’t change the fact that he was his own grandson. So regardless of Yearly’s heinous acts, from his perspective, he couldn’t see Yearly as deserving of death."

"Executing justice against one’s kin is easy to say, but difficult to do."

Wyatt said.

"But even if he hates me, he shouldn’t do such a thing! How can he be sure that I would marry the Junior House Master of the Sky-scraping Mansion... If I choose death over surrender, it would provoke that Junior House Master and enrage the Sky-scraping Mansion; wouldn’t the Sky-scraping Mansion still not spare the Anderson Manor! Could it be that in his eyes, Anderson Manor is less important than his grandson Yearly Hanson?"

Karina said indignantly.

Through Wyatt’s words, though she could understand Juan Hanson, the thought that Juan Hanson disregarded Anderson Manor’s safety filled her with fury.

"Julia, thinking this way shows you’ve truly matured."

Wyatt nodded, then continued: "What you said, he must have considered as well... However, having reached this point, it indicates Yearly Hanson’s importance has surpassed the entire Anderson Manor in his heart! Additionally, he does this as he believes you might not abandon Anderson Manor for yourself."

"After all, you’re the eldest daughter of Anderson Manor, and your father is the House Master of Anderson Manor!"

"At Anderson Manor, although he’s the Supreme Elder, in most matters, the decision-making power remains in your father’s hands... Regarding the Junior House Master’s proposal to marry you specifically, the hardest hit is your father."

"On one hand, he’s the House Master of Anderson Manor and must consider the bigger picture. On the other hand, he’s your father and cannot disregard your happiness and make you marry that infamous Junior House Master, which is akin to pushing you into a pit of fire."

"Currently, your father is a good father because he chose to stand by your side and didn’t compromise with the Sky-scraping Mansion... For your happiness, he’s willing to face off against the Sky-scraping Mansion with Anderson Manor!"

Saying this, Wyatt felt solemn admiration.

Perhaps, Karina’s father wasn’t a qualified leader.

But he was definitely a qualified father.

Listening to Wyatt’s words, at some point, Karina’s face was already covered in tears, "Father..."

Though she had known before the pressure her father was under, Wyatt’s detailed account made her feel her father’s difficulty even further, and a sense of guilt arose in her heart.

And it was at that moment, she made a decision in her heart.

Of course, even having made this decision, she didn’t share it with Wyatt.

"Brother Leandro, Little Black, Little White, and Little Gold have been training in seclusion lately, but if they know you’re here, they’d certainly interrupt their training to see you... Do you need me to call them out?"

Using True Energy to evaporate the tears on her face, Karina forced a smile and changed the subject to say this to Wyatt.

"No need."

Wyatt shook his head, "We’ll meet eventually, not in a rush now."

Currently, his thoughts were entirely focused on Karina.

As for Jovie Lee and his newborn son, knowing they were taken by his father’s men assured their safety.

Perhaps, Jovie and her son have already reunited with his parents.

What he was thinking about now was how to help Karina resolve the current crisis and resolve the crisis for Anderson Manor.

Of course, to resolve Karina’s crisis alone, the simplest approach would be for Karina to leave.

Wyatt believed the House Master of Anderson Manor must have made this decision, but Karina refused... The Karina he knew would definitely not abandon her family and Anderson Manor just for herself.

"Brother Leandro, Little Gold and the others previously returned to Crescent Island, back to Cloud Skies Continent, but we didn’t find you... We followed the clues you left on Cloud Skies Continent, returned to the Martial Dao Sacred Land, and found the Moon Radiance Sect. However, by then, the Moon Radiance Sect was just a name. Where did you go after leaving Moon Radiance Sect?"

Karina asked.

"Moon Radiance Sect a mere name?"

Wyatt furrowed his brows, remembering when he left Moon Radiance Sect, he had only killed one Saint Realm Supreme Elder.

How did the Moon Radiance Sect and several other Saint Realm experts end up in such a situation?

"Yes."

Karina Hanson nodded, "It’s said that all the Saint Realm experts of the Moon Radiance Sect have disappeared, and once the news spread, it brought about a catastrophic disaster."

Wyatt Barnes realized that if this were the case, it made sense.

The reason why the Moon Radiance Sect could stand its ground in the Nine Alliance of Sects, and as a ’tier-seven sect,’ was because of those Saint Realm experts within the sect.

If all the Saint Realm experts disappeared and the news got out, not only would the forces that were originally at odds with the Moon Radiance Sect not let them go, but even those allied with the Moon Radiance Sect in the past would join in to take a share of the spoils.

As a tier-seven sect, although the Saint Realm experts of the Moon Radiance Sect were gone, a large amount of cultivation resources remained, enough to make people envious.

"However, it’s unclear why those Saint Realm experts of the Moon Radiance Sect disappeared."

This left Wyatt Barnes deeply puzzled.

"I don’t know how they are now either."

Upon learning that the Moon Radiance Sect was practically non-existent, Wyatt Barnes couldn’t help but think of a few acquaintances in the Moon Radiance Sect, and he worried about them.

Faced with Karina Hanson’s inquiry, Wyatt Barnes also mentioned his trip to Fletcher Kingdom, and generally talked about his experiences there.

This included his dealings with the Swayer Family and later conflicts with the Netherworld Sect, including how King Archer’s mansion sent Kash Lynch from Ridge South’s Anderson Manor to kill him to seize the ’Demon Sealing Monument’ in his hands.

Karina knew about the Demon Sealing Monument in his possession.

Moreover, even if Karina didn’t know about the Demon Sealing Monument being with him, he wouldn’t hide it any longer.

Simply because, before long, news of him having the Demon Sealing Monument would spread to the region of the Hanson Manor at Blue Waves, and by that time, Karina would know.

"Demon Sealing Monument?"

Upon hearing that it involved the Demon Sealing Monument, Karina Hanson’s elegant brow furrowed.

She had traveled to the Cloud Skies Continent with Ruby years ago precisely for the Demon Sealing Monument.

But, despite Ruby searching for many years, she never found the Demon Sealing Monument.

It wasn’t until later that she learned the Demon Sealing Monument was in the hands of this Brother Leandro.

However, although she knew about this matter, she didn’t tell Ruby, nor did she inform her father, because she couldn’t be sure whether Ruby and her father could resist the temptation of the Demon Sealing Monument... If not, they would surely take Brother Leandro’s Demon Sealing Monument!

At that time, she would be in the most difficult position.

On one side were her relatives, and on the other was Brother Leandro.

To prevent a conflict between her relatives and Brother Leandro, she chose to hide the news.

"So, before long, Brother Leandro, the news about you having the Demon Sealing Monument will reach our Blue Waves Hanson Manor..."

Karina Hanson looked worried.

Not to mention outside experts, even those within their Blue Waves Hanson Manor would likely become greedy upon learning that her Brother Leandro possessed the Demon Sealing Monument.

"Don’t worry, Karina. I came to Blue Waves Hanson Manor by disguising myself and changing my surname."

Facing Karina Hanson’s worry, Wyatt Barnes smiled and said.

At the same time, he performed a disguise technique, and in an instant, his facial muscles twitched and reshaped. Moments later, he had completely changed into a youth with a stern face, entirely different from the previous Wyatt Barnes.

"Now, I am called Leandro, not Wyatt Barnes."

Wyatt Barnes stated.

"Brother Leandro, you... you..."

Looking at the stern and unfamiliar face in front of her, Karina Hanson was completely startled.

She was not unfamiliar with ’disguise,’ but she knew disguises typically involved tools and could be seen through with mental strength.

However, Wyatt Barnes’s disguise didn’t seem like a low-level one.

She had witnessed with her own eyes the face of Brother Leandro change, all happening in the blink of an eye, and Brother Leandro had a completely different face, a face with an extremely stern demeanor.

Curious, Karina Hanson reached out to touch Wyatt Barnes’s face, but found no clues.

Even when she extended her mental power, she detected no anomaly.

"This... this is simply unbelievable!"

Karina Hanson exclaimed softly.
