Legend of Wyatt
Chapter 254: The Origin of Gideon Summer

Chapter 254: Chapter 254: The Origin of Gideon Summer

Colten Marston, the root of all evil.

Wyatt could imagine that if it weren’t for Fill Bear’s presence, he and the two little girls beside him would undoubtedly be dead today.

So in Wyatt’s view, no matter how the Marston family would compensate him afterward...

Colten Marston must die!

Nearly at the instant when Colten begged for mercy, a blue afterimage flashed across, quick as the wind, eerily ghost-like.

Boom!

The old man in blue, one of the supreme elders of the Marston Family, struck out in rage, killing Colton with one palm.

"This villain would have been dealt with even if our guests hadn’t mentioned it. The Marston family would never allow him to live."

The old man dressed in blue turned to Wyatt and said slowly.

"Now... let’s talk about the issue of compensation."

A smile started to form at the corner of Wyatt’s mouth, his eyes sweeping over the four old men in front of him, leaving them feeling aggrieved and helpless.

In the end, it was indeed their Marston Family’s auction house that was in the wrong!

"My guest, please speak."

Orion Cruz took a deep breath, he had already prepared himself for a heavy loss.

"Ten million taels of gold."

Wyatt spoke slowly, his face was indifferent, as if ten million taels of gold were nothing to him.

Orion Cruz and the other three old men were stunned.

They had never expected that the youth dressed in purple in front of them would demand such a high price!

"Guest... aren’t these ten million taels of gold a bit..."

Orion Cruz felt somewhat troubled. Ten million taels of gold was not a small amount even for the Marston Family.

If they gave away this much gold, the Marston Family would definitely be severely weakened!

"What, you think it’s too much?"

Wyatt glanced at Orion Cruz calmly, "Don’t forget, the incident today was caused by your Marston Family... Ten million taels of gold, send it to the ’Drifting Clouds Inn’ by tonight. If not, bear the consequences!"

Without paying any attention to the four men whose faces had flushed red, Wyatt left straight away.

This time leaving the Marston Auction House, Wyatt and his companions left through the front door.

The night deepened, and the street in front of the Marston Auction House quieted down, with only a few scattered pedestrians passing by occasionally.

The Drifting Clouds Inn was not far away. Wyatt had noticed this inn when he came over from the tavern tonight.

Wyatt and his companions checked into the inn.

At this moment, in the main hall of the Marston mansion, the lights were brightly lit.

Four old men and a middle-aged man stood together.

At this moment, the middle-aged man’s face looked very ugly, "That Colten, has actually caused such a big disaster... He deserves to die!"

"Colten deserved to die. However, chief, that young man in purple is demanding ten million taels of gold, isn’t that overly excessive? Are we really going to give it to him?"

The old man in yellow spoke in a low voice, subtly mixed with a hint of anger.

"Supreme elder, if we do not give this ten million taels of gold, do you have a way to resolve this matter?"

The middle-aged man, the chief of the Marston Family, had a very ugly expression on his face.

The old man in yellow was speechless.

Did he have a solution?

No.

He did not believe he could bear the wrath of the ’Peep Naught Realm’ expert with the youth in purple.

"I will have someone send the ten million taels of gold... However, our Marston Family’s money is not so easily taken. When the money is sent, I will command someone to send the body of ’Gideon Summer’ to the Blackwind City branch of the Yulan Business Association."

As the middle-aged man continued to speak, a vicious light sparkled in his eyes, mixed with a hint of a conspiratorial aura.

"The chief’s decision is wise!"

All of a sudden, the eyes of the four old men, including Orion Cruz, lit up.

Yulan Business Association was one of the seven major business associations in Royal Country, among them, there were Peep Naught Realm martial artists.

Gideon Summer, the person in charge of the Blackwind City branch of Yulan Business Association.

What’s most important.

Gideon Summer’s father, the deputy head of the Yulan Business Association, was not only a Peep Naught Realm powerful expert, but also!

That night.

Wyatt received the ten million taels of gold notes sent by the Marston Family as he had wished, which made him couldn’t help but sigh, that the money came too fast.

Deep into the night, Wyatt continued his usual cultivation practice...

Nine Dragons War Sovereign Technique, Flood Python Transformation!

Currently, Wyatt was still stuck at the bottleneck of the third level of the Original Pill Realm, only half a step away from the fourth level.

"I should be able to break through before arriving at Seven Stars Sword Clan."

Wyatt let nature take its course, he practiced until late at night then fell into a deep sleep.

Early the next day, after having breakfast with the two little girls, Wyatt and his companions set off, with four of their finest horses, heading straight out of Blackwind City.

Not too long after Wyatt and his group left, two of the fastest horses chased after them, keeping a distance.

"Hmph!"

As they journeyed by horse and after they had traveled far from Blackwind City, Wyatt’s gaze suddenly turned cold.

Previously, when he just left the inn, he noticed someone was secretly watching them.

Initially, he didn’t pay it any mind.

Now, realizing that someone was catching up from afar, his expression turned grim.

Wyatt Barnes and the two girls greeted Fill Bear, and with a flick of their horsewhips onto the sweat-drenched horses, the horses picked up their pace, galloping forward.

In an instant, they widened the gap between themselves and the two figures trailing behind.

The two figures in pursuit were middle-aged men. Now, seeing Wyatt and crew suddenly accelerate and disappear from their view, a hint of urgency flashed across their faces as they too urged their horses on.

However, they soon discovered that after riding for a while, the road ahead was empty - their targets were no longer in sight.

"Where are they?"

The two men shared a glance, both wearing puzzled expressions.

In their eyes, all their horses were sweat-blooded horses, so the speed of Wyatt and the others shouldn’t have allowed them to get so far ahead of them.

"Are you looking for us?"

Just then, a sudden voice came from behind the two men, startling them and making their faces turn white.

When they turned their horses around, they saw their four targets casually riding their horses towards them...

They could feel a chill creeping over them as they noted the icy stare of the middle-aged man among the four.

They could perceive how terrifying this man was!

Their bodies started to tremble slightly, and a hint of fear shone in their eyes.

Wyatt looked at the two men with a calm expression, "Tell me, why are you following me?"

Seeing that the two men appeared somewhat hesitant, Wyatt’s gaze turned cold, "If you won’t tell me, your journey ends here today."

Instantly, under Wyatt’s piercing gaze, the two men’s faces changed, and they frantically replied, "Sir, I’ll tell you... I’ll tell you... We are from the Blackwind City branch of the Magnolia Trade Association. It was our deputy chief who sent us to track you."

"The Magnolia Trade Association?"

Wyatt’s eyebrows lifted slightly. He suddenly remembered that Colten Marston of the Marston Auction House had mentioned this Magnolia Trade Association yesterday.

The middle-aged man who had coveted the ’Jade-Eyed Sky Rat’ was indeed from the Magnolia Trade Association!

That middle-aged man and those two elders were at the half-step of the Void Realm, so their standing within the Magnolia Trade Association shouldn’t be low.

"Why did he send you to track me?"

Wyatt asked in a deep voice.

"Sir, we are not clear about the specifics, we’re just following orders,"

The two men shook their heads.

Wyatt’s gaze never left the two men, and eventually, he found that they didn’t seem to be lying. Thinking of the middle-aged man from last night, Wyatt asked, "Do you guys recognize ’Gideon Summer’?"

"Gideon Summer?"

The two men, hearing this, quickly nodded heads, "Our president of the Blackwind City branch of the Magnolia Trade Association is Gideon Summer."

"The president of the Blackwind City branch of the Magnolia Trade Association?"

Wyatt’s eyes narrowed; he hadn’t expected the middle-aged man from last night to have such a high status.

It seemed that the storage ring he casually took from Gideon Summer should contain quite a fortune.

Just then, Fill Bear spoke up, looking at the two men and asking, "What’s Gideon Summer’s relationship with the vice-chairman of the Magnolia Trade Association, Darius Summer?"

The two men hearing Fill Bear’s words, replied, "Gideon Summer is the only son of Darius Summer."

Wyatt noticed that upon hearing the two men’s words, Fill Bear’s eyebrows slightly tightened.

"Get lost! If I find you trailing us again, you’re as good as dead!"

Wyatt’s icy gaze swept over the two men, making them heave a sigh of relief as they raced away on their horses, not daring to look back.

"Fill Bear, do you know that Darius Summer?"

Wyatt sensed that something was amiss with Fill Bear and curiously asked.

"Young Master, that Darius Summer is the deputy chief of the Magnolia Trade Association. I’ve crossed paths with him before... His strength is comparable to mine in my heyday," Fill Bear answered respectfully.

"At the sixth level of the Peep Naught Realm?"

Wyatt nodded. He recalled that when they first met, Fill Bear had mentioned that his strength at his peak was at the sixth level of the Peep Naught Realm.

"Young Master, considering the people from the Magnolia Trade Association are following you, I suspect the Marston Family is involved. Should we...?"

Fill Bear gestured as if to suggest elimination.

"A trivial Marston Family is nothing... Right now, we need to rush. We need to reach the Seven Stars Sword Clan as soon as possible. If we miss the selection for the seven-star outer disciples three months from now, we’ll have to wait another half year," Wyatt shook his head. As he said, he didn’t think much of the Marston Family.

But now, to go back and wipe out the Marston Family would only be a waste of time.

In his view, it would be an unacceptable loss if he missed the chance to join the Seven Stars Sword Clan because of the Marston Family affairs.

"Yes."

Fill Bear nodded. For him, what the Young Master says, stands.

He was just the Young Master’s servant.

The four continued on their journey.

"Squeak~~"

At some point, Little Gold, the rat, woke up from its slumber. Finding itself on the back of a horse, it joyously hopped onto the horse’s head and bobbed its head at Keer in a human-like manner, looking very gleeful.

"Hiss~~"

Seemingly awakened by Little Gold, Little Black and Little White, the two small pythons poked their heads out from Wyatt’s sleeve. Looking at Little Gold, their golden and silver eyes sparkled with a certain shining light.

"Squeak!"

Little Gold looked at the two little pythons, then astonishingly turned its back to them, shaking its butt at the two pythons...
