Chapter 243: Chapter 243: Turning Weapons into Gifts
Finally, under Wyatt Barnes’s tireless refining, more than a hundred ’Cloud Smoke Pills’ were produced.
After sharing the ’Cloud Smoke Pills’, the two little pythons were finally satisfied.
To Wyatt’s surprise, instead of falling into a deep sleep as usual, they seemed more energetic and were keenly staring at him.
Now, even the Cloud Smoke Pills, were starting to be disdained by the two little pythons.
For the next few days, Wyatt started to refine the ’Flowing Pill’ and ’Crimson Jade Pill’...
When the two little pythons swallowed hundreds of ’Flowing Pills’ and ’Crimson Jade Pills’, they also weren’t willing to eat any more of these types of pills.
However, there were still no signs that they were about to fall into a profound sleep. They were full of spirit, vibrant, and lively.
"You two gluttons!"
Seeing the two small pythons in front of him, expecting more from him, Wyatt felt helpless. He suddenly realized that perhaps his initial idea was wrong. The enhancement of the little pythons’ strength wasn’t that simple.
"I don’t have anymore! I have only these pills left now, whether you want to eat them or not."
Wyatt placed the remaining few Cloud Smoke Pills, Flowing Pills, and Crimson Jade Pills on the table, and sternly stared at the two little pythons.
Who knew...
"Hiss Hiss~~"
The two little pythons quickly flicked their tongues. Their little tails shot out like lightning and tossed all three types of pills on the table.
Seeing this situation, Wyatt was flabbergasted.
"Which one of you two little rascals are throwing a temper tantrum?"
Wyatt swatted them, snatched up the two little pythons, and threw them on a tree in the backyard. Ignoring their protests, he directly left and returned to his room.
’Nine Dragons War Sovereign’, Flood Python Transformation!
In the next one-month period, despite Wyatt being on the cusp of reaching the ’Fourth Layer of the Original Pill Realm’, he still found it difficult to breakthrough.
On the other hand, that little lady Keer, with the aid of Monkey Wine and Strong Origin Pills, successfully broke through to the third layer of the Original Pill Realm!
As for Jovie Lee, she was only half a step away from the third layer of the Original Pill Realm.
During this one-month period, outside of Helen Sinclair occasionally coming to chat with Christina Lee, Wyatt’s house was as quiet as usual.
After a month, Wyatt left his house to collect materials from various places.
Starting from the Godly Might Marquis Mansion, the Simmons Clan, and then to the Sinclair Clan.
Wyatt and Seeker Sinclair jointly collected the materials from the Clan Chief of the Sinclair Clan, but unexpectedly encountered River Sinclair...
"Seeker, who’s this?"
River Sinclair was slightly surprised when he saw Wyatt. Wasn’t this purple-robed youth the same person he had encountered in front of a drugstore in the inner city a month ago?
The purple-robed youth was handsome and elegant, leaving a deep impression on him.
"Brother, his name is ’Wyatt Barnes’."
Seeker Sinclair introduced with a smile before turning to Wyatt. "Commander Barnes, this is my brother ’River Sinclair’."
"So, it’s Commander Barnes."
Upon hearing this, River Sinclair was surprised, and a trace of respect appeared on his face.
"Since you’re Seeker’s brother, just call me Wyatt. There’s no need to be so formal."
Wyatt offered River a friendly smile. It was clear to him that the current River Sinclair had changed a lot compared to the River Sinclair he had met more than a year ago in the Alchemist Guild.
He was no longer as arrogant and sharp as before.
"In that case, I’ll take the liberty of calling you ’Elder Brother Ling Tian’."
River nodded, and as he looked into Wyatt’s eyes, his smile gradually froze...
These eyes were so familiar.
They were ones he would never forget!
However, the purple-robed youth of that time and the one before him, he just couldn’t link the two.
Yet, thinking back, according to Seeker’s words, this purple-robed youth was already a ’Ninth Rank Alchemist’ at the age of eighteen...
This coincidentally matched with the youth back then.
When Wyatt saw the puzzled look in River’s eyes, his heart skipped a beat.
It seemed like River had discovered something...
But, how had he managed to do that?
However, Wyatt also noticed that River seemed to be unable to confirm his suspicions.
Seeing the confusion in River’s eyes deepening, Wyatt gave a light smile, and with a wave of his hand, a large stack of bank checks appeared in his hand. It was exactly five million taels. He handed it to River and said, "This money, consider it returned to its original owner."
"You... are you really..."
River didn’t accept the bank checks; instead, his pupils contracted as if he had seen a ghost.
"Brother, what’s wrong? Wyatt, why are you giving my brother money?"
Confused, Seeker, who was standing next to them, didn’t understand what was happening.
"Seeker, he’s the purple-robed youth who had made a bet with me and won five million taels of silver from me at the Alchemist Guild back then. I just realized that Wyatt’s eyes are the same as that youth’s... I wasn’t sure just now. But who would’ve thought, they actually turned out to be the same person, unbelievable!"
River showed a bitter smile, he would’ve never imagined meeting that talented young alchemist under such circumstances.
Seeker was stunned, "But brother, didn’t you say that the youth back then looked very ordinary?"
"For that, you might have to ask Elder Brother Ling Tian."
River gave Wyatt a deep look, his eyes filled with complex emotions.
"Wyatt."
Seeker looked at Wyatt, full of confusion.
Wyatt gave a light smile, "In order to avoid being identified, I used some methods to ’disguise’ myself... However, I didn’t expect you to remember my eyes."
As he looked at River, an expression of surprise formed on his face,
now he finally knew how River had recognized him.
He could change his appearance, but it was just his face that could be transformed; his eyes remained the same.
"Actually, after I lost the bet to you, I was furious. I yearned to retaliate against you...so, before I left, I deeply memorized your face, your eyes, your everything."
River Sinclair shook his head with a smile, reflecting on those initial days that now felt like another lifetime.
"So now, you don’t want to retaliate against me?"
Wyatt Barnes laughed.
River Sinclair shook his head, "When I returned to the clan, I contemplated a lot... In the end, I realized that I had been overly arrogant and ignorant of my own shortcomings. Come to think of it, I should actually thank you. It was you who made me realize my faults."
"As the saying goes, knowing your mistakes and being able to correct them is truly virtuous... River, with your mentality, I believe that in the future, you will undoubtedly excel in alchemy, standing at the peak of the Crimson Heaven Kingdom."
Hearing River’s words, Wyatt Barnes’ respect for him grew.
"I hope so."
River Sinclair nodded, humbly.
In the end, River Sinclair declined to accept the bank check from Wyatt Barnes.
Wyatt Barnes didn’t insist, but he did give some guidance to River Sinclair on alchemy.
Undeniably, River Sinclair had a high talent for alchemy and understood many concepts easily.
Wyatt Barnes couldn’t help but praise him silently in his heart.
Impressed by Wyatt Barnes’ profound understanding of alchemy, River Sinclair accompanied him to the main entrance of the Sinclair mansion when Wyatt Barnes decided to leave.
The two, hence, buried the hatchet.
Upon leaving the Sinclair mansion, Wyatt Barnes went to the palace.
In the Royal Flower Garden.
The emperor handed a Storage Ring to Wyatt Barnes, "These are all the items in the palace’s inventory, and the materials you needed that I had ordered to be collected from various places."
"Thank you, Your Majesty. How much do these materials cost?"
After expressing his gratitude, Wyatt Barnes asked with a smile.
"Money?"
The emperor shook his head and waved his hand, "No need for payment. If you are willing, visit Princess Irene before you leave."
Wyatt Barnes paused but understood the emperor’s intention and nodded.
When he saw Princess Irene again, Wyatt Barnes noticed that she had lost weight considerably and looked rather pitiable.
"Your Highness."
Wyatt Barnes greeted Princess Irene.
On seeing Wyatt Barnes, a surprised joy spread across Princess Irene’s face, "You’re here."
"Yes."
Wyatt Barnes nodded slightly, sighing in his heart.
Sometimes, things just happen unexpectedly.
It can’t be denied that Princess Irene was remarkable and kind-hearted, no less than Keer and Jovie Lee.
However, in his heart, he found it hard to take a step closer.
A step that was merely a stone’s throw away, yet felt like it was on the other side of the horizon.
"When do you plan to leave?"
Princess Irene asked softly. Her voice, like the sound of a silver bell, revealed a trembling note. Her frail figure, pitiful and pleading, made one’s heart ache.
"I’ll be leaving early tomorrow morning."
Wyatt Barnes replied gently.
"So soon?"
Princess Irene’s delicate body trembled imperceptibly. She stole a glance at Wyatt Barnes, shied away when she found him looking back, flushed from being caught like a child stealing sweets.
Wyatt Barnes raised an eyebrow and said slowly, "Princess, let’s go for a walk."
"Okay."
Princess Irene obediently nodded.
Unlike before, this time, as Wyatt Barnes walked with Princess Irene, they conversed a lot.
Both gained a better understanding of each other.
Wyatt intentionally told her about Keer and Jovie Lee, thinking that Princess Irene would be disappointed.
However, unexpectedly.
A faint smile always remained on Princess Irene’s face, "So it seems, Sister Jovie Lee and Keer will accompany you to the Green Forest Royal Country?"
"Yes."
Wyatt Barnes nodded with a smile, the corners of his mouth curling up in a blissful smile.
He didn’t notice the glint mixed with envy in Princess Irene’s eyes as she turned away.
As if she wished she could replace Keer or Jovie Lee to be by Wyatt Barnes’ side.
"Will...will you come back?"
As they bid farewell, Princess Irene asked in a soft voice, her face revealing a hint of anxiety.
"I will definitely come back."
Wyatt Barnes gave a light smile, "This time, my mother won’t be leaving with me. Whenever I have time, I will come back to see her."
At his words, Princess Irene’s eyes brightened, "May I meet your mother?"
"Hmm?"
Wyatt Barnes was taken aback.
Only then did Princess Irene realize that she had been too straightforward. The blush on her face deepened, as if it could bleed.
