Legend of Wyatt
Chapter 1168 Framing

Chapter 1168: Chapter 1168 Framing

Liam Campbell’s greed flashed briefly in his eyes, yet how could it escape Wyatt Barnes’s keen observation.

"No more."

Facing Liam Campbell’s inquiry, Wyatt Barnes shook his head, "These two items, I found them in a ruin... I searched all around at the time, but did not find a third item."

"You mean... you only have one of these spirit instruments and one of these Pill Medicines?"

Liam Campbell weighed the Grade One spirit sword and Grade One Return-Life Pill in his hand, gave Wyatt Barnes a deep look, and asked.

"Yes."

Wyatt Barnes nodded slightly, giving off a wooden impression, but at the corner of his mouth, a faint, barely noticeable cold smile appeared.

Just as Wyatt Barnes finished speaking, Liam Campbell produced an ancient-looking bronze mirror in his hand, aiming it at Wyatt Barnes and Winnie Romero.

"Demon-reflecting Mirror!"

At a glance, Wyatt Barnes recognized that the bronze mirror in Liam Campbell’s hand was not ordinary, but one that could reveal the true form of ’demons’.

Soon, Liam Campbell’s gaze settled on the mirror, and when he saw that it reflected a man and a woman, both human, a bright smile appeared on his face.

"Not ’demons’!"

He confirmed this immediately.

The young man and woman in front of him were not ’demons’, but humans.

One about twenty-five years old, the other just over twenty.

Such humans, even if talented and perceptive, couldn’t be too strong.

"Vice Steward Liam Campbell!"

Just as Liam Campbell put away the Demon-reflecting Mirror, Wyatt Barnes narrowed his eyes slightly, his voice cooling down a bit, "Don’t you know that using the Demon-reflecting Mirror to randomly inspect people is very impolite?"

In the Cloud Skies Continent, the ’Demon-reflecting Mirror’ might not be a rare item, but it had a remarkable use.

Once employed, the mirror could reveal whether a human was actually a ’demon’ in disguise.

If the person was a ’demon’ in human form, the mirror would not reflect a human image, but their true form.

Because of this, on the Cloud Skies Continent, it was rare for people to abruptly use the Demon-reflecting Mirror on others, as it was considered quite rude.

"Polite?"

Hearing Wyatt Barnes’s words, Liam Campbell was first startled, then couldn’t help but sneer, "To swindlers like you... do I need to be polite?"

"Swindlers?"

Hearing Liam Campbell’s words, Wyatt Barnes’s eyes narrowed into slits.

Standing beside Wyatt Barnes, Winnie Romero’s already frost-covered exquisite face grew even colder, emitting a slightly terrifying chill.

Just as the woman next to Liam Campbell also involuntarily blinked in surprise, Liam Campbell raised his hand and stored the Grade One spirit sword and Grade One Return-Life Pill into his own Storage Ring.

"If you don’t want to die... you two, get as far away as possible!"

Liam Campbell looked at Wyatt Barnes and Winnie Romero, his eyes revealing murderous intent as he coldly commanded.

Clearly, Liam Campbell was prepared to brazenly rob Wyatt Barnes’s ’Grade One spirit instrument’ and ’Grade One Return-Life Pill’.

He had produced the Demon-reflecting Mirror to inspect the two, merely to confirm whether they were ’demons’; since they weren’t, they posed no threat to him.

He felt justified in swindling the items they planned to auction!

Having spoken, Liam Campbell no longer paid attention to Wyatt Barnes and Winnie Romero. He gave the woman beside him a deep look and said indifferently, "Follow me inside."

The woman, upon hearing this, turned slightly pale but still obediently followed Liam Campbell into the auction backstage.

"I want him dead!"

Winnie Romero’s voice was ice-cold. She stepped forward, preparing to follow them in.

"You are no match for him."

Wyatt Barnes quickly reached out and grabbed Winnie Romero’s hand, stopping her.

"My belongings, once taken, are not easily returned," Wyatt Barnes murmured, his eyes sparkling with a chilling light as he turned to look at Winnie Romero.

Phew!

Following that, Wyatt Barnes took the lead and charged into the auction backstage.

Winnie Romero followed closely behind.

Instantly, the two became the center of attention in the auction backstage, as they were outsiders and very unfamiliar to the people of the Campbell Family auction house.

"Who are you?!"

Suddenly, many people frowned and asked.

"Who are we?"

Wyatt Barnes scoffed, his gaze immediately fell on Liam Campbell standing aside, and he spoke calmly, "This, you should ask this Vice Steward Liam Campbell."

Shush! Shush! Shush!

...

Suddenly, Liam Campbell became the focus of everyone’s attention.

"Liam Campbell, what’s going on?"

Soon, an authoritative old man in a silver robe stepped forward, looked at Liam Campbell, frowned, and asked somewhat displeased.

"Steward."

Facing the silver-robed old man, Liam Campbell did not dare to be negligent and respectfully greeted him.

The man in the silver robe was indeed the Vice Steward of the Campbell Family auction house.

After greeting the silver-robed elder, Liam Campbell calmly looked at Wyatt Barnes and Winnie Romero, speaking indifferently, "They are just two swindlers, I’ll send them away immediately!"

He did not seem to find the presence of Wyatt and Winnie surprising.

"I had intended to spare you... but since you seek death, I will oblige!"

At the same time, Liam’s gaze chilled as he slowly began to speak, his voice filled with murderous intent.

"Hurry and resolve this... The auction is starting in half an hour, don’t cause unnecessary complications."

The silver-robed elder glanced indifferently at Liam and said.

"Yes."

Liam promptly responded and then looked at Wyatt and Winnie again, his eyes brimming with murderous intent.

"Today, if your Campbell Family does not return my belongings and provide me with a satisfactory answer... don’t expect to hold the auction today."

Faced with the menacing Liam, Wyatt remained calm, but his voice was extremely loud, not in the least suppressed.

Whoosh!

Wyatt’s words stirred up a huge reaction, like a stone causing ripples in a thousand-layered pond.

The people from the Campbell Family backstage, including the Vice Steward of the Campbell Family auction house, the silver-robed elder, also changed their expressions and looked menacingly at Wyatt.

Threat!

A naked threat!

This purple-clad young man was threatening their Campbell Family auction house, threatening their Campbell Family!

"Boy, you’re courting death!"

Liam’s countenance darkened, his eyes filled with deadly intent, and he moved to attack Wyatt.

Whoosh!

However, a figure that appeared in front of Wyatt blocked his path, causing him to abruptly halt and ask, "Vice Steward, what are you doing?"

Now standing in front of Wyatt was a silvery figure, indeed the Vice Steward of the Campbell Family auction house, the silver-robed elder.

He looked at Wyatt and sternly questioned, "Are you threatening our Campbell Family?"

"You can see it that way."

Faced with the questioning of the silver-robed elder, Wyatt responded nonchalantly, seemingly not worried at all about what the Campbell Family could do to him.

"You are very bold."

The silver-robed elder said.

"I dare not claim boldness... However, I believe this is a matter of justice, and I thought the Campbell Family was also a fair family! They shouldn’t protect certain parasites."

Wyatt said this as he looked meaningfully at Liam.

"What are you talking about nonsense!"

Seeing Wyatt’s gaze, panic flashed through Liam’s eyes, and he burst into rage, "You deceived our Campbell Family auction house, and you still talk about justice?"

As the words fell, Liam then looked at the silver-robed elder, "Vice Steward, please go prepare for the auction. I can handle this small matter...I will make them disappear soon."

As he spoke, Liam looked at Wyatt and Winnie as if they were already dead.

"No rush. I only want to know what exactly happened here."

The silver-robed elder turned to Liam and asked.

Hearing this, Liam immediately looked at a woman not far away, the very one who had brought Wyatt and Winnie here, "You, come over! Explain clearly to the Vice Steward what exactly happened."

Hearing Liam call her, the woman’s face slightly changed, but she soon took a breath and walked towards Liam.

"Hmm?"

The silver-robed elder frowned, somewhat confused.

"Vice Steward, they were brought here by her... for the specifics, it’s better you hear it from her."

Liam explained.

The silver-robed elder nodded faintly and then looked at the woman who had now approached him, "Speak."

"Yes, Vice Steward."

The woman, clearly tense in the old man’s presence, complied and then began to speak slowly, "Vice Steward, the two guests said they wanted to consign two items..."

"Then I told them, unless it is an item with ’finale’ status, they cannot enter the backstage of our Campbell Family auction house at this time."

At this point, the woman looked at the man and woman staring coldly at her. In the depths of her gaze, there was a mix of guilt and helplessness.

"Sorry to the two guests...I really had no choice! Vice Steward Liam said that if I didn’t do as he instructed, he would kill not just me but also my family members."

At the same time, the woman passed her Origin Force-infused voice into the ears of Wyatt and Winnie.

Instantly, Winnie’s expression darkened, and her gaze turned even more murderous toward Liam.

Though Wyatt still maintained a calm face, the extreme coldness in his eyes intensified.

Not only had Liam coveted his belongings, but he had also threatened a powerless woman with such despicable means.

In his heart, Wyatt sentenced Liam to death.

If Liam did not die, he would not be at peace!

"The two guests said that the items they wanted to consign were treasures qualified to be finale items... Hence, I guided them to the consignment area and then got Vice Steward Liam to appraise them."

The woman continued.

"When Vice Steward Liam saw them and asked them to produce the consignment items for appraisal, they hesitated for a long time and ultimately brought out nothing."

"Outraged by this, Vice Steward Liam rebuked them several times, accusing them of deceiving our Campbell Family auction house and told them to get out! Who knew that they instead accused Vice Steward Liam of taking their items and chased him into the backstage..."
