Legend of Wyatt
Chapter 163: Princess Irene

Chapter 163: Chapter 163: Princess Irene

Facing the horse charging towards him, Wyatt Barnes’ gaze turned icy, his right fist tightened, and his muscles bulged!

If the person intended to ride into him, he wouldn’t mind sending both rider and horse flying....

The galloping Attalus horse was getting close, now only a few meters away from Wyatt Barnes.

"Whoa~~"

The young man on the Attalus horse abruptly pulled the reins, stopping the horse just a meter away from Wyatt Barnes.

The young man cast a condescending glance at Wyatt Barnes, "Kid, you’re pretty brave... you’re also lucky. If this weren’t outside the Third Prince’s mansion, my ’Red Blood’ would have slammed and killed you by now!"

’Red Blood’ was the name the young man had given to his Attalus horse.

In other words, the young man was only being cautious because they were outside the Third Prince’s mansion.

Otherwise, Wyatt Barnes would have been killed by him.

Wyatt Barnes calmly met the young man’s gaze, a faint smile appearing on his lips, "You’re lucky too."

Seeing the young man’s puzzled look, Wyatt Barnes turned around and headed towards the mansion gate.

As he said, the young man was indeed fortunate.

If the young man hadn’t stopped just now, he would have sent both him and his horse flying.

Of this, Wyatt Barnes was confident.

"Commoner!"

The young man sneered, riding past Wyatt Barnes and arriving at the mansion gate first.

The young man dismounted, handed the reins to a servant of the Third Prince’s mansion, took out his invitation, and gave it to a middle-aged man who seemed to be in charge.

At the command of the manager, another servant led the young man into the mansion.

"Guest, please present your invitation."

By this time, Wyatt Barnes had also reached the gate. The middle-aged manager, with a smile on his face, did not dare to underestimate him.

"Hmm?"

The young man who had already entered the mansion turned his head, saw the young man in purple again, and sneered, "Kid, not everyone is qualified to enter the Third Prince’s mansion... If you don’t have an invitation, you’d better go home and have your milk!"

Wyatt Barnes furrowed his brows, a hint of anger flitting across his eyes.

This person kept provoking him, did he think Wyatt Barnes was easy to bully?

Watching the young man swagger off, Wyatt Barnes sneered, reached into his robe, and drew out his invitation.

"Wyatt Barnes? So, you’re Young Master Barnes!"

After looking at the invitation, the middle-aged manager’s eyes lit up, his face full of humility and reverence.

The Third Prince had instructed that if this young man came, he should be treated with the highest courtesy....

He dared not be negligent.

"Young Master Barnes, please come in."

After taking a deep breath, the manager personally led the way for Wyatt Barnes.

Wyatt Barnes nodded slightly and followed behind the manager, entering the Third Prince’s mansion.

"Is that Wyatt Barnes?"

"Only someone like Wyatt Barnes, who’s been making waves in the Imperial City recently, could warrant the personal attention of the manager."

"Earlier, the young man who entered, he seems to be the top side branch member of the Simmons Clan, Benny Simmons, right? He seemed to be mocking Wyatt Barnes..."

"That Benny Simmons, his strength is not low, but compared to the gifted Wyatt Barnes, he’s not even close."

...

A few servants were whispering to each other.

Along the way, Wyatt Barnes noticed the many exotic plants throughout the large mansion. The Third Prince seemed to be a man who knew how to enjoy life.

Some of these plants were even rare medicinal herbs.

Soon, led by the middle-aged manager, Wyatt Barnes arrived outside the spacious artificial lake in the inner courtyard.

It was growing dark, but the building standing in the center of the lake was brightly lit, from which laughter and lively chatter echoed.

"The Simmons Clan, Young Master Benny Simmons has arrived."

A booming voice soon echoed from ahead.

"Benny Simmons?"

Wyatt raised his eyebrows. The young man who had provoked him at the gate turned out to be from the Simmons Clan? No wonder he was so arrogant.

However, Seeker Sinclair seemed to mention that the three major clans of the Imperial City always forbid their direct descendants from participating in the struggle for imperial power...

That said, this Benny Simmons was probably not a direct descendant of the Simmons Clan.

"Greetings, Third Prince, Princess Irene."

Just as Wyatt Barnes, led by the manager, was stepping onto the wooden bridge leading to the pavilion in the lake, he heard Benny Simmons’ humble and respectful voice.

Princess Irene?

Wyatt Barnes was slightly surprised.

By now, he had been in the Imperial City for several months and was well-informed about many matters in the city.

Princess Irene was the emperor’s most beloved daughter and was widely recognized as the ’First Beauty of the Imperial City’.

"The First Beauty of the Imperial City... I wonder how she compares to my Keer and Jovie?"

A sense of curiosity rose in Wyatt Barnes’ heart.

Both Keer and Jovie Lee were top-tier beauties he had encountered since arriving in this world.

The women he had encountered who could compare to them were but one, Helen Sinclair, Remi Sinclair’s celestial beauty of a younger sister from the Sinclair Clan.

Except for Helen, there was no other woman he had met who could be mentioned in the same breath as them.

"Your Highness, Young Master Wyatt is here."

The middle-aged steward, with calm and steady steps, approached the building at the lake’s heart with Wyatt Barnes, and respectfully announced.

Suddenly, inside the lake heart building, the young man sitting in the seat of honor’s eyes lit up.

At this time, Wyatt Barnes also stepped into the lake heart building.

A glance revealed.

Sitting in the chief seat was an apparently amiable young man clad in a golden robe, about twenty-six or twenty-seven years old, carrying an imposing dignity between his brows, upholding the royalty inherited from the princes.

"Third Prince."

Upon recognizing the identity of the man, Wyatt Barnes slightly nodded and smiled, a sign of acknowledgment and courtesy.

"Audacious!"

Just then, the old man standing behind the robed person furrowed his brows and barked angrily.

The threatening sound, a technique of the Origin Force Sound Condensation, pierced Wyatt’s eardrums!

But, Wyatt Barnes’s strong mental power instantly neutralized the sound. His face remained unchanged as he swept a calm glance over at the old man, only then turning his attention towards the young girl seated at the right of the Third Prince...

The young girl was around his age, about eighteen, having bright eyes and white teeth, with an extraordinary temperament.

Her shoulder-length hair fell like a waterfall, with intriguing rosy cheeks that provoked sympathy at just one glance, and cherry-like lips stirred a desire to lean forward and kiss.

Speaking of looks.

This woman was equal to Keer and Jovie Lee...

"Just as deserved, the number one beauty in the Imperial City, comparable to Keer and Jovie from our house..."

Wyatt Barnes quickly came back to reality and offered the young lady a slight smile, "Princess Irene."

The whole episode, from Wyatt’s greetings to the Third Prince, to being reprimanded by the old man, and finally saluting Princess Irene, all happened in the blink of an eye.

The old man looked surprised; he found it hard to believe that a martial artist of the ninth level of the Condensed Pill Realm could withstand his Origin Force Sound Condensation technique.

"Haha..."

The Third Prince burst out into a hearty laugh, "I have heard quite a lot about you, Elder Brother Ling Tian. Meeting you today, I must say your reputation precedes you. I initially thought that you might not attend my invitation, but I am pleasantly surprised that you did."

Wyatt Barnes responded with a smile, "The Third Prince flatters me, I am just a common man, I consider it my honor to have been invited by you."

"Such self-control at such a young age, it’s really admirable, Elder Brother Ling Tian, please have a seat."

The Third Prince stood up to invite Wyatt Barnes to the seat on his left.

This seat was clearly kept vacant intentionally.

"Thank you, Third Prince."

Wyatt Barnes didn’t stand on ceremony and sat down directly.

At this moment, shining eyes from the seats below all fell on Wyatt Barnes.

Those eyes belonged to young men aged between twenty and twenty-five who all carried an air of pride. From their appearances and mannerisms, it was clear they were all from distinguished backgrounds.

They were originally curious about whom the Third Prince had reserved the single seat for...

Now, it all became clear. That seat was for the recently reputable young man in the Imperial City.

To the left of the Third Prince’s seat was ’Princess Irene’, and to the right was ’Wyatt Barnes’.

No one would object to Princess Irene taking the seat there.

But Wyatt Barnes...

Many of the talented young men present expressed their displeasure.

However, they didn’t dare to provoke the Third Prince, their unfriendly gazes squarely on Wyatt Barnes.

These stares didn’t bother Wyatt Barnes. He now turned his attention toward Benny Simmons in the distance.

At this point, Benny’s gaze was somewhat unnatural...

He hadn’t expected that the young man in a purple robe he’d met outside the Third Prince’s mansion would be the renowned ’Wyatt Barnes’.

However, considering some information he’d heard a few days ago, he became relieved.

With his piercing gaze, showing no fear, he crossed glances with Wyatt Barnes!

"So you’re the Wyatt Barnes. I heard that your clan repeatedly invited you to return, but you refused every time...no wonder, with no decent horse to your name, you had to walk to the Third Prince’s house."

Benny’s gaze fixed on Wyatt as he spoke mockingly.

The Third Prince’s high regard for Wyatt Barnes disgruntled him...

Now, it seemed like he had found an outlet for his dissatisfaction!

"I’ve heard about this too. I wondered why a direct descendant of the Barnes family would attend the banquet of the Third Prince. Turns out, you’ve chosen to leave the Barnes family... Elder Brother Ling Tian, that’s impressive!"

The blue-robed youth sitting opposite Benny, narrowed his eyes. His addressing Wyatt Barnes as a brother was clearly sarcastic, a tone that anyone present would recognize.

Everyone present had heard of Wyatt Barnes’s actions which had recently been the talk of Imperial City.

If Wyatt had still been a direct descendant of the Barnes family, they might have been somewhat wary of him.

However, Wyatt Barnes had rejected the Barnes family...

Without the support of the Barnes family, even if he was gifted and had already entered the ninth level of the Condensed Pill Realm at the age of eighteen, so what?

The Crimson Heaven kingdom had always been abundant in talent.

However, the number of talents who could successfully grow were very few.
