Chapter 1123: Chapter 1123: The Gold-Swallowing Organization

Wyatt Barnes and his two companions were easy to spot as the leading figures by any discerning eye.

Hence, the middle-aged man holding three exquisite tokens in his hand, claiming to be selling "Boarding Orders," set his sights on Wyatt first, and proactively pitched the "Boarding Orders" to him.

"Boarding Orders?"

Wyatt raised an eyebrow, took a cursory glance at the token in the middle-aged man’s hand, and asked, "With this, one can board the ’Flying Boat’ of the Yin and Yang Sect?"

"That’s right."

Upon hearing Wyatt’s words, the middle-aged man nodded with a broad smile, as if he had seen a "big fish" about to take the bait.

"I heard... to board the ’Flying Boat’ from Weak Water River bank to the ’mainland,’ each person must pay thirty top-grade original stones. How come it only takes twenty top-grade original stones per person with you?"

Wyatt looked at the middle-aged man with interest and asked.

"It’s a pre-sale now, so it’s cheaper."

The middle-aged man’s smile remained unchanged as he spoke in a calm and unhurried manner, "Buying now is definitely cheaper than when the Flying Boat arrives... one can save ten top-grade original stones per person! I’ve got only three tokens left in my hand, which is perfect since there are three of you."

"If you miss this village, there’ll be no such shop again."

Towards the end, the middle-aged man added, as if to remind him.

"Have they all bought them?"

Wyatt glanced at a group of people not far away, curiously asking.

"Of course."

The middle-aged man immediately nodded.

"Brother, what he’s selling isn’t any ’Boarding Order’; he’s just here to swindle top-grade original stones. Don’t believe him!"

Just then, a voice resonated with Origin Force into Wyatt’s ears.

Wyatt immediately looked up and noticed an honest-looking middle-aged man nodding at him nearby, then quickly turning his head back as if he had concerns.

For a moment, Wyatt had a clue in his mind.

"What do you think? Have you decided?"

The middle-aged man looked at Wyatt with a smile and casually inquired.

In his view,

This deal, without any unexpected issues, would surely succeed.

"How many top-grade original stones can you swindle in one day like this?"

Wyatt looked at the middle-aged man, his tone remaining calm as he asked.

The middle-aged man had never expected to be confronted with such a question after waiting for so long, and his expression suddenly turned extremely unsightly.

Boom!

In that moment, a loud explosion drew Wyatt’s attention, darkening his expression completely.

What had he seen?

The honest middle-aged man who had kindly warned him had just been blown to death by a palm strike from a middle-aged man in grey, with the rolling force completely engulfing the honest man.

The next moment, the honest middle-aged man’s corpse fell from the sky.

"Mind your own business!"

The voice of the middle-aged man in grey was chilly as he spoke, turning into a lightning bolt to swoop down beside the lifeless body and remove his Storage Ring.

In the next moment, he moved again with swift motions, landing firmly beside the middle-aged man who was peddling the "Boarding Orders" to Wyatt.

"Kid, you better not follow his example."

The middle-aged man in grey gave Wyatt an icy look, his cold gaze flashing with a terrifying killing intent that seemed ready to devour.

As the honest middle-aged man was killed, Wyatt noticed that despite the presence of quite a few people, only a handful looked back once, immediately turning their heads away, ceasing to care as if they had never seen it happen.

It was someone else’s trouble; they held themselves aloof.

The heartless nature of humanity was laid bare in that moment!

Of course, Wyatt also understood that most of these people simply did not want to invite trouble upon themselves.

"He could be considered my benefactor."

Wyatt’s gaze, returning from the crowd, fell on the middle-aged man in grey first and spoke with a placid expression.

At this moment, Wyatt also realized that the two men in front of him were in cahoots.

"Benefactor?"

The middle-aged man in grey laughed a bright, sinister laugh, "Do you know how many fools who stick their noses in others’ business die here every day? And you speak of a benefactor! I advise you to do as they do and wait for the Yin and Yang Sect ’Flying Boat’ properly."

The ’they’ he referred to were the crowd waiting for the ’Flying Boat.’

"As for other matters, you’d best act as though you’ve seen nothing."

After saying that, the middle-aged man in grey gave Wyatt a disdainful glance, then turned to the man beside him who had been trying to sell the "Boarding Order," "What bad luck! Wait for the next target."

"Right."

The other man nodded, casting a cold glance at Wyatt and his companions before flying off in search of the next target.

As for the middle-aged man in grey, he turned around, preparing to rejoin the crowd to continue watching for those who dared interfere with his accomplice’s scheme – ready to kill anyone who dared disrupt their plans.

"Hmph!"

It was at that moment that a cold snort sounded.

Accompanying the snort was the whistle of a sword.

The whistling of the sword seemed to cease as abruptly as it had started, fleeting like a flash in the pan, as if it had never occurred.

However, an angry, gaping hole now adorned the rear neck of the middle-aged man in grey, from which blood spurted, instantly killing him.

As the body of the middle-aged man in grey fell, in the very moment it began to plummet, a ghostly purple figure emerged beside him, appearing and disappearing like a wraith.

Whoosh!

With a raise of his hand, Wyatt Barnes stripped the grey-clothed middle-aged man of his Storage Ring and tucked it away.

"You... you dared to kill him?!"

At this moment, the middle-aged man who had previously attempted to deceive Wyatt into buying a fake ’Boarding Order’ turned around, only to see Wyatt standing there as the body of his companion plummeted to the ground.

His first thought was that this purple-clad youth before him had killed his comrade.

"What, you want to avenge him?"

Wyatt lifted his head and looked at the middle-aged man with interest, calmly asking.

Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man’s face fell, yet he dared not make a move.

Although he and the grey-clothed man were from the same organization, the grey-clothed man was much stronger than him, having stepped into the ’Seventh-Order Transforming Void Realm.’

If he could kill a ’Seventh-Order Transforming Void Realm warrior,’ what did he have to fear from him, a mere ’Sixth-Order Transforming Void Realm warrior’?

"You’re dead meat!"

The middle-aged man glared hatefully at Wyatt, gritting his teeth in anger, "Do you know who we are? Do you know why they don’t dare to offend us?"

As he spoke, the middle-aged man glanced at a group of people who were turned away from him.

Of course, by now many had turned around to watch the commotion and were visibly shocked to see the grey-clothed man had been killed by Wyatt.

"Someone actually dared to kill a member of the ’Swallowing Gold Organization’!"

Many people exclaimed in surprise.

"To think he even dares to kill someone from the ’Swallowing Gold Organization’... This young man is as good as dead."

Many sighed.

"However, his strength is indeed impressive... That man from the Swallowing Gold Organization was a Seventh-Order Transforming Void Realm warrior, yet he was killed by him."

"What does it matter if he was killed? Once the strong ones from the Swallowing Gold Organization arrive, he won’t escape death!"

"Yes... the leader of the Swallowing Gold Organization is a Martial Emperor Realm existence, and under his command are ten Protectors, each one a peak warrior of the Void Realm."

"This young man is probably going to be unlucky."

...

At this time, many looked at Wyatt with pity in their eyes, believing that his fate was sealed.

The Swallowing Gold Organization?

Martial Emperor?

The people around him were talking, and Wyatt heard every word, but he didn’t take it seriously.

As long as it was not someone above the ’Seventh-Order Martial Emperor Realm,’ he had nothing to fear at his current level.

Even a ’Sixth-Order Martial Emperor Realm strong one,’ he was confident he could kill instantly in a confrontation!

This was Wyatt’s confidence.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

...

At that moment, Wyatt heard a series of whooshing sounds coming from all directions, as figures vanished into the clouds and fog, darting away at high speed.

"Are they also from the Swallowing Gold Organization?"

For a moment, Wyatt began to quietly speculate.

"Young brother, you should escape quickly."

Just then, an old voice, infused with Origin Force, reached Wyatt’s ears, advising, "The Swallowing Gold Organization is not something you can afford to provoke!"

Wyatt’s eyebrows lifted, and he quickly spotted an old figure in the crowd, a kind-faced elderly man suggesting he flee.

Wyatt’s spiritual power extended outwards, immediately detecting the old man’s cultivation.

Ninth-Order Transforming Void Realm!

Much stronger than the grey-clothed man.

"The Swallowing Gold Organization?"

Learning from past experiences, Wyatt didn’t dare to stare directly at the old man, fearing that the old man might suffer misfortune because of him, but he couldn’t help asking curiously, "What organization is that?"

"The Swallowing Gold Organization is a group that specializes in swindling martial artists of their original stones by the Weak Water River. They don’t dare to kill the martial artists who come here, but they will use other methods to cheat them out of their original stones."

The old man continued to speak through condensed Origin Force.

"They don’t dare to kill the warriors here?"

Wyatt was taken aback, "Why?"

He had been harboring such a question for a while.

The grey-clothed middle-aged man and the man who had intended to trick him into buying a ’fake Boarding Order’ both possessed significant strength. In theory, they could easily kill many warriors present and seize more original stones.

However, they had not done so.

Even after realizing he had seen through their deceit and could no longer be fooled, they did not persist in bothering him but chose only to kill the person who had informed him.

From beginning to end, they had no intention of harming him.

Now, after hearing what the old man said, Wyatt realized they indeed dared not do so because they had concerns.

As for those concerns, Wyatt was eager to find out.

"Young brother, since you were able to come here, you should know that this place is where the ’flying boats’ of the Yin and Yang Sect pick up people to head to the ’Inner Lands.’

The old man explained.

Wyatt nodded.

"The ’flying boats’ of the Yin and Yang Sect come at regular intervals to transport those wishing to go to the ’Inner Lands’... Each person boarding the boat must provide thirty top-grade original stones!"

The old man continued, "This is the Yin and Yang Sect’s way of earning and accumulating original stones. If people from the Swallowing Gold Organization were to kill indiscriminately here, it would be akin to cutting off the Yin and Yang Sect’s revenue stream.

"That’s why they don’t dare to kill wantonly! Of course, if someone is foolish and offends them, like the person who warned you earlier, they will show no mercy."
