Legend of Wyatt - Chapter 2469: Old Ginger Is Spicier
As for ’Xuan Yuan Manor’, although Walter Simmons didn’t know much about it, after hearing what Addison Tasker had said earlier, he knew that the inheritance of the Xuan Yuan lineage was linked directly to the heavenly planes...
If it was before he acquired the legacy of that Daai Law Golden Immortal, he might have agreed to the old man’s invitation.
But now, it is impossible!
Because, obtaining the legacy of that Daai Law Golden Immortal also meant that he became that Daai Law Golden Immortal’s heir.
In the future, when he goes to the heavenly planes, he will have to become a disciple under that person’s tutelage.
He, Walter Simmons, having become the heir of that senior, could not possibly switch allegiance to any other faction within the heavenly planes.
If Xuan Yuan Manor were just a force of the secular plane, it wouldn’t matter.
But this Xuan Yuan Manor, is not that simple as merely a secular plane’s force.
"My apologies, senior."
Facing the old man’s invitation, Walter Simmons shook his head and straightforwardly said, "If Xuan Yuan Manor were merely a common force in the secular plane, I wouldn’t mind joining... But alas, Xuan Yuan Manor is not that simple of a secular plane’s force."
"And I have obtained the Sword Immortal’s legacy and have already become his heir... In the future, when I reach the heavenly planes, I am destined to enter under his tutelage, join the faction he belongs to."
In his words, Walter Simmons also expressed an attitude:
In the heavenly planes, he already has a faction to which he belongs!
"Walter Simmons, perhaps you are not clear..."
The old man shook his head and said, "To that Sword Immortal, you are merely one among many of his heirs in the secular plane. It is nearly impossible for him to actively focus on you. In the future, when you arrive in the heavenly planes, not entering his tutelage and joining his faction actually means nothing."
"Moreover, our Xuan Yuan Manor in the heavenly planes is a top-tier power... The Elder Ancestor of our Xuan Yuan Manor is currently a Heavenly Emperor on the heavenly plane!"
"When you reach the heavenly planes, even if you join our Xuan Yuan Manor... not to mention that the Sword Immortal may not focus on you, even if he knew of your existence, he may not have the guts to come to Xuan Yuan Manor to demand you!"
By the end, the old man’s tone was filled with confidence, confidence in Xuan Yuan Manor.
"Senior, do you think I, Walter Simmons, am someone who repays kindness with betrayal?"
Hearing the old man’s words, Walter Simmons’s tone grew angrier.
"Walter Simmons!"
Addison Tasker’s face changed dramatically.
This Walter Simmons dared to be so presumptuous in front of the Elder Ancestor of Xuan Yuan Manor, does he not want to live?
It’s known that even the current House Master of Xuan Yuan Manor is extremely respectful in front of this Elder Ancestor of Xuan Yuan Manor, not daring to be the slightest bit negligent.
And now, the person who was once her Sword Slave dared to be rude to this Elder Ancestor of Xuan Yuan Manor...
Addison Tasker only felt a tingling in her scalp.
"Haha..."
However, the old man was not as angry as Addison Tasker thought, but instead laughed and said, "As expected. Walter Simmons boy, you are quite an excellent little fellow, principled and loyal."
The old man seemed to have known that Walter Simmons would refuse his invitation all along.
"Elder Ancestor..."
Addison Tasker was stunned, she also noticed that their Xuan Yuan Manor’s Elder Ancestor seemed to have long expected Walter Simmons’s refusal.
However, since he knew that Walter Simmons would refuse, why did he insist on having her abandon Walter Simmons as her Sword Slave?
She couldn’t figure it out.
"Anyway, having you be Addison Tasker’s Sword Slave again is impossible... Also, making you her Sword Slave is an insult to you. So, since you had a hundred-year agreement with Addison Tasker, I’ll make the decision and invite you to become an Honorary Minister Elder of Xuan Yuan Manor, to guard Xuan Yuan Manor for a hundred years, how about that?"
By the end of his speech, the old man added, "Of course, I mean the Xuan Yuan Manor of the secular plane... having nothing to do with the Xuan Yuan Manor of the heavenly plane."
"Alright."
This time, Walter Simmons agreed.
This did not violate his principles.
Moreover, compared to being Addison Tasker’s Sword Slave, becoming an Honorary Minister Elder of Xuan Yuan Manor was, to some extent, much more dignified!
"Indeed, old ginger is hotter." (meaning: older people are wiser)
Addison Tasker stood aside, and hearing the old man’s words, she couldn’t help but sigh.
She could clearly feel:
The current Walter Simmons and the Walter Simmons who used to be her Sword Slave, are completely different...
The latter, like a puppet;
While the former, is full of life.
"The Elder Ancestor respects him so... within the hundred years to come, with his grateful nature, he will undoubtedly be dedicated to our Xuan Yuan Manor."
In this, Addison Tasker was sure.
For this reason alone, she felt that the Elder Ancestor had shown wisdom beyond her years.
"Xuan Yuan Manor welcomes your membership."
"Since the Daai Law Golden Immortal’s legacy has been obtained by you, Elder Walter Simmons... let’s leave now, in the following years, attempt to find some treasures of the Immortal family or some Divine Abilities or Immortal Methods in this Outer Heaven Secret Realm."
The old man, by the end, was also ready to leave with Walter Simmons and Addison Tasker, to continue searching the Outer Heaven Secret Realm for Heavenly Treasure Vaults, Earthly Treasure Vaults, and to collect treasures of the Immortal family, Divine Abilities, and Immortal Methods...
Although the Daai Law Golden Immortal’s legacy had been acquired, the Outer Heaven Secret Realm would remain open for a long time.
As a Scattered Immortal, he could still manage with an Earthly Treasure Vault, but as for a Heavenly Treasure Vault, he couldn’t even have a share.
"With Walter Simmons joining hands with the young Jennifer... even if we encounter the Heavenly Treasure Vault, the immortal treasures, Divine Abilities, and Immortal Methods within will all belong to our Sanders Mansion!"
The elder was filled with confidence about this.
"Senior."
At this moment, Walter Simmons did not forget Wyatt Barnes, "Before we leave, I would like to say goodbye to my friend."
"Oh?"
"Is it that Wyatt Barnes?"
Upon hearing Walter’s request, the elder seemed unsurprised and immediately mentioned Wyatt Barnes by name.
"Senior, you are acquainted with my friend?"
Walter was taken aback.
"Your friend is not simple."
Hearing Walter’s inquiry, the elder gave him a deep look.
"Wyatt Barnes... not simple?"
Walter was once again stunned.
"Previously, you were likely in a demonic state most of the time, so you haven’t heard the ’rumors’ about your friend..."
At this moment, Addison Tasker, who stood to the side, spoke up, "That Wyatt Barnes once killed two Seven Tribulations Loose Immortals... It’s said that one of them was killed by him after obtaining an immortal treasure!"
"These two pieces of news, as far as I know... aren’t baseless rumors."
Addison said.
"Killed... killed two Seven Tribulations Loose Immortals?"
Walter was completely dumbfounded.
Even though he had received the Daai Law Golden Immortal’s legacy and wielded an immortal sword, at most, he could only rival a typical Seven Tribulations Loose Immortal without an immortal treasure as leverage...
Yet, his former friend had already killed two Seven Tribulations Loose Immortals?
"Yes. And those two Seven Tribulations Loose Immortals were killed by him in one encounter without exception!"
Addison continued.
Walter was struck dumb.
Although he had not seen Wyatt in years, Walter could imagine that Wyatt’s strength was formidable...
But he never expected it to be this astounding!
"It’s no wonder... even Wyatt’s wife possesses such strength. How could he be weak?"
Soon, Walter recalled that back when he was at the site of the Daai Law Golden Immortal’s legacy, it was because of the help of Wyatt’s wife, Keer, that he had the opportunity to access the Daai Law Golden Immortal’s legacy.
Otherwise, even if he were fated for the Daai Law Golden Immortal’s legacy, it would not have come to him.
After all, if he could not access the Daai Law Golden Immortal’s legacy, no matter how destined he was, he couldn’t obtain it.
And it was Wyatt’s wife, Keer, who gave him the chance to access the Daai Law Golden Immortal’s legacy.
"The matter of killing two Seven Tribulations Loose Immortals is already in the past."
The elder spoke up too at this moment, "Before you all came out, Wyatt Barnes had just killed an eight Tribulations Loose Immortal with an immortal treasure... Moreover, that Eight Tribulations Loose Immortal was recognized as the foremost Eight Tribulations Loose Immortal of the Molo Realm!" 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢
"Even for me, if I do not use an immortal treasure... Faced with him wielding an immortal treasure, although I would not be defeated, I would certainly fall at a disadvantage!"
Saying this, the elder’s gaze returned to the distant purple silhouette, flashing with genuine apprehension.
"Moreover, after plundering that Eight Tribulations Loose Immortal’s immortal treasure with an unfathomable Immortal Method, he struck powerfully to severely wound the opponent and then used the speed of a Nine Tribulations Loose Immortal, catching up with him and killing him!"
At some point, the elder’s eyes had narrowed, and he couldn’t help but reveal a look of awe on his face.
Recalling the previous scene, the elder’s heart still couldn’t help but be filled with shock.
Wyatt Barnes, a mere half-step immortal, could exhibit attacks comparable to a Nine Tribulations Loose Immortal, already astonishing him greatly...
Yet, Wyatt Barnes had also shown speed comparable to a Nine Tribulations Loose Immortal.
This means, whether in attack or speed, Wyatt Barnes was already not weaker than a ’Nine Tribulations Loose Immortal’!
"Unless one becomes a Scattered Immortal with a ’Soul Gathering Body’... otherwise, even a Nine Tribulations Loose Immortal like me would find it difficult to capture him!"
The elder mused internally.
It was clear that Wyatt Barnes’ previous suspicions were correct.
This elder, who initially seemed unremarkable in Wyatt’s eyes, was indeed a ’Nine Tribulations Loose Immortal’.
"What?!"
Upon hearing the elder’s words, both Walter Simmons and Addison Tasker were utterly shocked.
"That Wyatt Barnes... killed an Eight Tribulations Loose Immortal with an immortal treasure? And that Eight Tribulations Loose Immortal was recognized as the foremost among the Eight Tribulations Loose Immortals in his Molo Realm?"
Looking at the distant purple figure again, Addison Tasker’s expression became as if she had seen a ghost.
To be recognized as the foremost Eight Tribulations Loose Immortal by a major mundane realm’s populace, she naturally understood the significance.
This purple-clad youth, who appeared frighteningly young and was like her, a ’half-step immortal’, actually possessed such terrifying strength?!
She found it hard to imagine.
