Legend of Wyatt-Chapter 1567 "Heavenly List
Chapter 1567: Chapter 1567 "Heavenly List
"Could it be that your Swayer Family has a rule that those who aren’t Saint Refiners cannot come? If so, I’ll turn around and leave immediately."
Facing the slightly sullen face of the beautiful woman, Wyatt Barnes spoke nonchalantly, his expression indifferent.
Upon hearing this, the beautiful woman’s expression eased. She took a deep look at Wyatt Barnes but didn’t say anything more and continued to lead the way ahead.
Although she didn’t understand where this young man’s confidence came from, she still didn’t tell him to leave. Since he was already here, it was naturally worth trying. If she chased him away, it would be her negligence.
Under the beautiful woman’s guidance, Wyatt Barnes quickly arrived outside a spacious courtyard within the Swayer Family’s inner mansion.
"I’ll go notify them."
The beautiful woman greeted Wyatt Barnes, and without caring about his reaction, she walked straight into the courtyard.
Wyatt Barnes stood quietly at the entrance, his gaze flickering, "The steward of the Swayer Family’s inner mansion is indeed not simple... Her cultivation is at the peak of Entering the Saint Realm, and the feeling she gives me is no different from the Vice Sect Leader of the Moon Radiance Sect. She should be a ’half-step Saint Realm’ existence."
If it were before, knowing that the beautiful woman was a half-step Saint Realm existence, he would surely be apprehensive.
But now, he felt nothing.
With his current strength, he dared to claim that even without the ’Splendid Fairy Sword,’ he was seldom met with equals below the Saint Realm.
Soon, the beautiful woman came back out, accompanied by an elderly man.
This elderly man, dressed in a neat white robe, matched with his head full of white hair, appeared quite ethereal and graceful.
Every step he took seemed so natural in Wyatt Barnes’s eyes.
In fact, it brought Wyatt Barnes a certain amount of pressure.
"Strong in the Saint Realm!"
Seeing the beautiful woman behaving respectfully in front of the elderly man, and considering the pressure the man exerted, Wyatt Barnes easily guessed the elderly man’s power, his heart momentarily shocked.
This seems to be the place where the Swayer Family’s Young Master resides, doesn’t it?
Why would there be a Saint Realm strong here?
For a seventh-tier family like the Swayer Family, there could at most be a few Saint Realm strong individuals, making it surprising for Wyatt Barnes to see one here.
"This here is Elder Crawford."
The beautiful woman followed closely behind the elderly man, and spoke to Wyatt Barnes.
"Elder Crawford."
Wyatt Barnes nodded to the elderly man as a greeting.
"Elder Crawford is our Swayer Family’s esteemed elder, please show some respect."
At this moment, before the elderly man could respond, the beautiful woman reminded Wyatt Barnes via voice transmission, her tone mixed with some discontent.
"Steward Ellis, you’re meddling too much, aren’t you? I came to the Swayer Family because you need me. Even if Elder Crawford is your family’s esteemed elder, why should I be subservient?"
Wyatt Barnes glanced at the beautiful woman mildly and responded unrestrainedly.
"You!!"
The beautiful woman clearly didn’t expect Wyatt Barnes to say such words, and to say them openly instead of via voice transmission. Her expression changed instantly, her eyes revealing a chilling light.
"What? Did I say something incorrect?"
Wyatt Barnes sneered.
From the moment he entered the Swayer Family territory, Wyatt Barnes had already made up his mind that if he wanted to firmly establish himself in Fletcher Kingdom through the Swayer Family, he must maintain a strong stance to garner attention.
With his current strength and abilities, he did indeed qualify to showcase a strong side in a family like the Swayer Family.
Meanwhile, Wyatt Barnes no longer looked at the beautiful woman and instead stared directly at the elderly man before him.
At this moment, Wyatt Barnes noticed that the elderly man’s lips curled into an indescribable smile.
For some reason, upon seeing this smile, a sense of vigilance involuntarily rose in Wyatt Barnes’s heart.
Boom!!
In that instant, akin to a shocking break in the sky, accompanied by a loud noise, Wyatt Barnes suddenly felt a surge of strong wind rushing toward him, causing the void to wail as if in agony.
Accompanied by the strong wind was a fragrance.
This fragrance was familiar to Wyatt Barnes; it came from the inner mansion steward, ’Steward Ellis,’ the beautiful woman who was originally following the elderly man.
Steward Ellis’s sudden attack caught Wyatt Barnes by surprise.
However, Wyatt Barnes wasn’t a pushover. Facing Steward Ellis’s unexpected assault, his right arm jolted violently, and then the strength from his flesh burst forth, combined with the True Energy rapidly coursing through ninety-nine Saint Veins into his fist, he punched out with a thunderous blow to meet Steward Ellis’s preemptive jade palm.
The jade palm struck suddenly as if transforming into a massive fan ready to swat Wyatt Barnes away.
The iron fist countered with imposing wind, fearlessly meeting the beautiful woman’s jade palm head-on.
In an instant, fist and palm collided.
Bam!!
Another thunder-like explosion echoed, marking the clash between Wyatt Barnes and Steward Ellis.
This clash did not involve the invocation of Saint-grade martial arts techniques, nor the reliance on True Energy to form weapons, beasts, or domains, not even external forces like Saint Artifacts. It was purely a contest of True Energy.
Of course, for Wyatt Barnes, it wasn’t just True Energy.
After Wyatt Barnes broke through to the peak of Entering the Saint Realm, his flesh also underwent another transformation, and the contained power became even more formidable.
Of course, having just recently advanced to the peak of the Entering the Saint Realm, Wyatt Barnes does not hold an advantage in terms of True Energy.
Although he possesses ninety-nine Saint Veins to channel True Energy, he was ultimately reacting posthaste. Before he could make a move, Steward Ellis had already gathered all her True Energy into her jade-like palm, launching it at him like a storm without holding back.
Therefore, regarding Saint Veins, he holds no particular advantage.
As a wave of air, centered on the clash between the two, swept across the area, Wyatt Barnes remained expressionless, standing still like a statue as immovable as a mountain.
In contrast, on the other side, the confidence on Steward Ellis’s previously self-assured face crumbled in an instant.
Soon after, her whole body was sent flying backward, only stopping awkwardly after a few meters.
This was because Wyatt Barnes timely held back his strength!
Otherwise, Steward Ellis would have been in an even more embarrassing state.
"May I enter now?"
After repelling Steward Ellis, Wyatt Barnes didn’t even glance at her. Instead, he looked towards the elder in white robes standing not far away all along, who was also the Supreme Elder of the Swayer Family, ’Jordan Swayer’.
He didn’t need to guess to realize that it was the elder who had instructed Steward Ellis to take action.
Otherwise, even Steward Ellis wouldn’t dare to act so recklessly in front of the elder.
"Of course."
Upon hearing Wyatt Barnes’s words, Jordan Swayer nodded, as if having no sense of being ’exposed’.
Upon hearing this, Wyatt Barnes immediately stepped into the grand courtyard ahead of him.
At the same time, Jordan Swayer followed close behind, while casting a sideways glance at Steward Ellis, whose face was slightly pale, "There’s nothing for you here now."
"Yes."
Steward Ellis replied respectfully.
However, as she left, she couldn’t resist taking another look at Wyatt Barnes’s back, eyes filled with both awe and disbelief.
"I can be sure that he is not a Saint Realm expert... but his strength is clearly far superior to mine! Could it be that he is a strong contender on the ’Heavenly Ranking’?"
At this thought, Steward Ellis’s eyes twinkled with fascination.
The ’Heavenly Ranking’ is a highly prestigious list within the Martial Dao Sacred Land, typically established only by ’fifth-tier forces’.
This signifies that the ’Heavenly Ranking’ generally encompasses an entire regional prefecture.
To be precise, it includes top-tier experts at the peak of the Entering the Saint Realm from a regional prefecture.
The ’Heavenly Ranking’ includes only one hundred individuals, each a towering presence at the pinnacle of the Entering the Saint Realm, merely a fingertip away from the ’Saint Realm’.
It’s said that even the weakest individual on the ’Heavenly Ranking’ possesses the power to face three regular half-step Saint Realm experts in direct combat.
If Wyatt Barnes knew about the ’Heavenly Ranking’, he would surely be greatly astonished. The list is very similar to the ’Earth List’ of the Nine Religions Alliance region, except the ’Earth List’ features experts at the pinnacle of the Transcending Mortal Realm, whereas the ’Heavenly Ranking’ features those at the peak of the Entering the Saint Realm.
In fact, the ’Earth List’ is modeled after the ’Heavenly Ranking’.
In the Martial Dao Sacred Land, there are countless regions like the Nine Religions Alliance region.
While there are many fifth-tier forces in the Martial Dao Sacred Land, there are only a few dozen.
Even if each fifth-tier force established a ’Heavenly Ranking’, there would only be a few dozen ’Heavenly Rankings’ in the Martial Dao Sacred Land... this shows how high the value of the ’Heavenly Ranking’ is.
The experts listed on the ’Heavenly Ranking’ are all top contenders at the pinnacle of the Entering the Saint Realm.
It is for this reason that, while speculating that Wyatt Barnes is an expert on the ’Heavenly Ranking’, Steward Ellis’s attitude completely transformed.
At this time, thinking of that nearly perfect handsome face, for some unclear reason, Steward Ellis’s cheeks flushed slightly, as if a shy maiden’s modesty suddenly appeared within her.
Steward Ellis’s change in attitude naturally escaped Wyatt Barnes’s notice.
Of course, he wasn’t interested in noticing it either.
Currently, he was entering the room of the eldest young master of the Swayer Family, together with its Supreme Elder ’Jordan Swayer,’ a simple and unpretentious room. It’s hard to imagine this could be the room of the heir to the next head of the Swayer Family.
This alone made Wyatt Barnes develop a good impression of the Swayer Family’s eldest young master.
Meanwhile, Wyatt Barnes also saw the Swayer Family’s eldest young master, Beau Swayer, lying on the bed.
Beau Swayer had a handsome, yet not rugged, face. However, it was now as pale as a sheet of paper, making the black spider mark on his forehead appear all the more frightening and alarming.
As Wyatt Barnes and Jordan Swayer entered, he struggled to sit up, clearly very weak, as frail as an ordinary person with no cultivation whatsoever.
"Grandpa Crawford."
He first greeted Jordan Swayer, then shifted his gaze onto Wyatt Barnes, moving his pale lips as he asked, "And who might this be?"
"This gentleman has come to treat your illness."
Jordan Swayer seemed to have a good relationship with Beau Swayer, with gentle affection evident in his eyes as he spoke.
"I’ve already given up, why do you still..."
Beau Swayer sighed deeply.
"It’s not over yet, do not speak of giving up lightly."
Jordan Swayer responded earnestly.
"Alright then."
Beau Swayer nodded, then looked at Wyatt Barnes, squeezing out a weak smile, "I trouble you."
