Legend of Wyatt-Chapter 1652: A Matter of Urgency
Chapter 1652: Chapter 1652: A Matter of Urgency
Wyatt Barnes’s disguise technique deeply shocked Karina Hanson.
"Karina."
Suddenly, inspiration struck Wyatt Barnes’s mind. He thought of a way to deal with the proposal from Sky-scraping Mansion, "How about I teach you this disguise technique...Then, you can disguise yourself as someone scarred and show it to the Junior House Master of Sky-scraping Mansion. At that time, once he sees your disfigured appearance, perhaps he won’t want to marry you anymore."
Upon hearing Wyatt Barnes’s words, Karina Hanson’s eyes brightened, thinking it was a good idea.
However, after a moment of thought, her face darkened, "Wyatt, it won’t work... Not only is this a temporary solution, but even if the Junior House Master of Sky-scraping Mansion cancels the marriage, once my disguise is exposed, our Fletcher Kingdom Hanson Mansion will face retaliation from Sky-scraping Mansion. Moreover, Sky-scraping Mansion has already set the marriage date with us Fletcher Kingdom Hanson Mansion, and they’ve even invited many guests."
"So, even if I disguise myself as someone scarred, and the Junior House Master of Sky-scraping Mansion loses interest in me, Sky-scraping Mansion is unlikely to cancel the marriage... After all, the date is set, the guests are invited, and even if I look terrible, they will ensure the Junior House Master marries me."
As she spoke, Karina Hanson looked helpless and bitter.
Sky-scraping Mansion is a formidable Third-Rate Power, far stronger than our Fletcher Kingdom Hanson Mansion.
Before Sky-scraping Mansion, even Hanson Mansion must act cautiously.
"The marriage date is set? Guests are invited?"
Wyatt Barnes’s expression turned grim, his eyes flashing coldly, "Karina, when is the date set for?"
"In one year."
Karina Hanson replied.
"One year?"
Wyatt Barnes nodded, then said, "So unless something happens to the Junior House Master of Sky-scraping Mansion during this time... Otherwise, regardless of what happens on the Hanson Mansion side, Sky-scraping Mansion won’t relent?"
"Yes."
Karina Hanson nodded, a flicker of disgust crossing her eyes, and then she said angrily, "I’ve already heard of the notorious reputation of that Junior House Master of Sky-scraping Mansion. Compared to Yearly Hanson, he’s equally as deplorable! If something happens to him in this year and he dies, that would be great."
At this point, Wyatt Barnes didn’t speak further, his eyes gleaming as he pondered deeply.
"Wyatt, did you leave a message on Cloud Skies Continent saying Sister Keer was taken by people from the Fire Worship Sect?"
Suddenly, Karina Hanson seemed to recall something, and with a solemn face, she spoke to Wyatt Barnes.
"What? Karina, do you know about the Fire Worship Sect?"
Seeing Karina’s serious expression, Wyatt Barnes faintly realized that Karina might know about the Fire Worship Sect.
"Before, I didn’t know about the Fire Worship Sect either. However, after I returned and asked Ruby, she found an ancient document for me with records about the Fire Worship Sect."
As Karina Hanson spoke, she raised her hand, conjuring a seemingly very ancient document out of thin air, and handed it to Wyatt Barnes.
"I’ve folded the pages with the introduction to the Fire Worship Sect."
Karina Hanson added.
With the folds marked by Karina Hanson, Wyatt Barnes immediately flipped to the pages introducing the Fire Worship Sect.
As time passed, Wyatt Barnes’s face grew extremely grim.
"Fire Worship Sect, one of the three major sects in the Martial Dao Sacred Land, a top-tier power? After the Martial Dao Sacred Land was divided into Upper Domain and Lower Domain, it relocated to the Upper Domain?"
Wyatt Barnes was aware of the Martial Dao Sacred Land’s division into ’Upper Domain’ and ’Lower Domain’.
He even considered the possibility that the Fire Worship Sect might be a force from the Upper Domain of the Martial Dao Sacred Land.
To be honest, he had mentally prepared for this possibility.
This thought arose because Sister Keer’s abductor claimed her identity, even the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon ’Emperor End’ from the Dragonsmith Clan hadn’t heard of the Fire Worship Sect.
Previously, Wyatt Barnes knew the Dragonsmith Clan was powerful, but he wasn’t very familiar with them.
Until he went to Fletcher Kingdom and settled in the Swayer Family, it was there he found some ancient documents with records about the Dragonsmith Clan.
The Dragonsmith Clan, though a Fourth-Rate Power, is also one of the quasi-Third-Rate Powers in the Lower Domain of the Martial Dao Sacred Land.
A quasi-Third-Rate Power, while still categorized under Fourth-Rate Powers, is significantly stronger than ordinary Fourth-Rate Powers.
It may be weaker than Third-Rate Powers, but definitely stronger than typical Fourth-Rate Powers.
Yet, an important figure from such a quasi-Third-Rate Power had never heard of the Fire Worship Sect.
At that moment, Wyatt Barnes vaguely speculated the Fire Worship Sect might not be a force in the Lower Domain of the Martial Dao Sacred Land, but instead a power from the Upper Domain.
Though he had guessed the Fire Worship Sect might be an Upper Domain power, he never expected it to be this exaggerated... According to the records in the document he held, even in the Upper Domain of the Martial Dao Sacred Land, the Fire Worship Sect is one of the top-tier forces.
Three major sects, as they say, are one of the untouchable giants in the Upper Domain of the Martial Dao Sacred Land.
The Fire Worship Sect is among them.
Upon learning what kind of force the Fire Worship Sect was, Wyatt Barnes’s mood sank to the extreme.
A powerful force at the pinnacle of the Upper Domain of the Martial Dao Sacred Land?
"Keer, how could she have ties with people from the Fire Worship Sect? Moreover, that woman even claimed to be her sister!"
Wyatt Barnes couldn’t understand this at all.
The Fire Worship Sect is one of the top forces in the Upper Domain of the Martial Dao Sacred Land.
But Keer is from his hometown, Qingfeng Town.
Qingfeng Town, not to mention the Martial Dao Sacred Land, is extremely remote even on the Cloud Skies Continent.
The Fire Worship Sect and Qingfeng Town are worlds apart.
Yet Keer, who walked out of Qingfeng Town with him, is now connected to the Fire Worship Sect... The woman who looks exactly like Keer, claiming to be Sister Keer, claims to be from the Fire Worship Sect!
Seeing Wyatt’s face change dramatically, Karina Hanson remained silent.
She could fully understand Wyatt’s current mood.
At first, when she didn’t know what kind of force the Fire Worship Sect was, it was no big deal.
But when she read the books about it and learned its origin and strength, she was shocked. That’s when she realized, in the Martial Dao Sacred Land, there exists such a colossal force.
It’s one of the three oldest sects in the entire Martial Dao Sacred Land, a giant of the Sacred Land!
At that time, she was thinking that if Brother Leandro knew the woman who took Sister Keer is from such a force, he surely wouldn’t be able to accept it.
Facts proved her right.
Just now, she considered whether to hide the facts about the Fire Worship Sect from Wyatt but then thought it unwise.
Because her Brother Leandro would find out sooner or later and has the right to know.
"Brother Leandro..."
Now, it was Karina’s turn to comfort Wyatt.
"I’m fine."
Wyatt shook his head, cleared his somewhat groggy mind, and said to Karina, "Julia, please arrange a room for me... I want to rest."
"Alright."
Karina nodded, then personally led Wyatt to an unused room.
Understanding that Wyatt was in a bad mood, Karina wisely excused herself and left.
When she left, her face was full of bitterness, suddenly feeling she shared some plight with her Brother Leandro. freewebnσvel.cøm
Thinking about her current situation, Karina’s mood turned extremely gloomy.
Honestly, if she chose to escape, she could completely flee from the Ruby Mansion... because her father had previously told her to leave, but she was unwilling, knowing that leaving would implicate the entire Ruby Mansion.
In the Ruby Mansion, she didn’t care about Juan Hanson and the others.
But her father, Uncle Woodson, she couldn’t possibly ignore.
Because of this, she refused her father’s proposal and insisted on staying.
"I didn’t expect to see this day... If I had known Juan Hanson’s wolfish ambitions earlier and ignored him, it would have been fine. That way, I wouldn’t have gone to him, and the Junior House Master of the Sky-scraping Mansion wouldn’t have seen me."
Whenever she recalls the event, Karina feels immense regret.
But as they say, ’It’s hard to see clearly when you’re in the midst of things,’ Karina never thought that even if she didn’t go, Juan Hanson would find a way to pique the Junior House Master’s interest by simply providing a painting of her.
Karina left, while Wyatt sat in a daze on the bed, all thoughts revolving around ’Keer.’
As time passed, he realized thinking like this any further was meaningless, and he snapped out of it, "Keer was taken by her sister... Her sister doesn’t seem like someone who would harm her. I just hope she cares enough about Keer not to harm the child in her belly."
To this day, Wyatt couldn’t forget the woman’s anger upon learning Keer was pregnant with his child.
At that moment, it seemed she wished to kill him!
"Cultivate! Cultivate!"
Thinking of how Keer might have been taken to the Upper Domain of the Martial Dao Sacred Land made Wyatt solely focused on intense cultivation.
As he knew, crossing the barrier between the Upper and Lower Domains of the Martial Dao Sacred Land requires at least Great Saint Realm power, otherwise, it’s impossible.
Only those at or above the early stages of the Great Saint Realm can freely traverse between the Upper and Lower Domains.
"Keer, wait for me... I will definitely rescue you and bring back our child!"
Without knowing when, Wyatt’s eyes seemed filled with intense flames, and with a thought, he entered the Jewel Tower, ascending to the third level.
"I hope this seclusion yields something... If I can’t break through to the Saint Realm, I won’t be able to help Julia with anything!"
This time in seclusion, Wyatt felt immense pressure.
Rescuing Keer is still a bit distant, but Julia’s issue is urgent.
