Legend of Wyatt
Chapter 408 Ancient River Trading Chamber

Chapter 408: Chapter 408 Ancient River Trading Chamber

"Squeak~~"

Upon hearing the beautiful woman’s words, Little Gold the mouse stretched out its paw, pointing toward a room in the distance. Its pair of emerald-green eyes were full of fury.

The beautiful woman, hearing this, had a faraway look in her eyes, seemingly guessing at something. She then broke into a small, knowing smile.

Wyatt and Keer carried on their sweet, lingering moments until deep into the night before finally leaving the room.

After exiting the room, the pair climbed up to a tower.

The first thing they saw was the beautiful woman playing with Little Gold...

"Master."

With a respectful bow, Keer blushed. It was quite adorable.

"Peak Master."

Wyatt also greeted her, not forgetting to wink at Keer, which made her so shy she could hardly bear it.

The beautiful woman was none other than the Shimmering Light Peak Master, Kinsley Cooper.

Kinsley nodded at Keer and her gaze fell on Wyatt. With a sigh, she said, "Wyatt Barnes, I never thought you would be able to secure first place in the tournament of the five sects for the Seven Stars Sword Clan... It has been a long time since our Seven Stars Sword Clan last won first place in the tournament among the five major sects."

Recalling the past, Kinsley was a bit wistful.

Wyatt frowned; he had heard about this from Sect Leader Zeke Foxsong.

The last time Seven Stars Sword Clan won first place in the tournament of the five sects was nearly twenty years ago...

Back then, the person who brought honor to the Seven Stars Sword Clan was none other than the present Shimmering Light Peak Master, Kinsley Cooper!

Suddenly, Kinsley changed the subject, "In a year’s time, your ’two-year appointment’ with Mr. Zither will arrive...The Sect Leader and I have discussed and decided to let you go out and gain experience since your current strength is equivalent to that of a Sixth-Order Original Infant Realm martial artist."

"Experience?"

Wyatt was taken aback.

Kinsley nodded, then slowly explained, "I am sure you have heard that our Seven Star Sword Clan possesses numerous properties across Green Forest Royal Country. Besides a few Elders handling external affairs, the majority of the people managing these properties are disciples from the Inner Sect who are over thirty."

Wyatt nodded, he had heard of this.

Kinsley continued, "After discussing with the Sect Leader, we decided you will go to the ’Ancient City of TianHuang’."

"Ancient City of TianHuang?" Wyatt was a bit stunned upon hearing Kinsley’s words.

He was familiar with the Ancient City of TianHuang.

Two years ago, he and Jovie Lee set out from Seven Stars Sword Clan to go to Hidden Peak and had passed through the Ancient City of TianHuang.

Latterly, he even acquainted himself with a couple, Mr. and Mrs. Brian Graham, in the Ancient City of TianHuang.

"Our Seven Star Sword Clan also has assets in the Ancient City of TianHuang?" Wyatt asked in surprise.

Kinsley nodded, "Our Seven Star Sword Clan doesn’t have any industries in the Ancient City of TianHuang, but our two elders in charge of external affairs along with some Inner Sect disciples are protecting the ’Ancient River Trading Chamber’ there."

"Protect the trading chamber?" Wyatt’s brows furrowed. He hadn’t realized that the Seven Stars Sword Clan had connections with the trading companies of Green Forest Royal Country.

The disciples from the inner sect of the Seven Star Sword Clan who protected the Ancient River Trading Chamber should be able to collect a certain amount of ’protection fee’... This, Wyatt was sure about.

"When do I leave?" Wyatt asked.

"Tomorrow." Kinsley replied, "At noon tomorrow, you can find the Sect Leader."

Wyatt nodded.

Wyatt greeted Keer and said goodbye to Kinsley before leaving Shimmering Light Palace.

Returning to the Stalactite Cave, he meditated for the whole night.

The next morning, he went to Shimmering Peak to tell Jovie Lee that he would be away for a while.

This time Wyatt didn’t bring either Keer or Jovie.

The word from Kinsley, the Shimmering Light Peak Master, and Jade Elder was that the Ancient City of TianHuang was chaotic. Plus, Wyatt was there to gain experience rather than sightsee - having the two girls with him might impede him in some way, they said.

Whoosh!

Outside the ’Heavenly Pivot Palace’ on the Heavenly Pivot Peak, which served as the main peak of Seven Stars Sword Clan, a dark shadow shot into the sky, disappearing into the clouds.

Meanwhile high above, a young man dressed in the attire of a disciple of the Seven Stars Sword Clan’s Inner Sect was soaring across the sky on the back of a huge hawk at high speed.

"With this ’Dry Hawk’, a First level Original Infant Realm fierce beast, to carry me, I will be able to reach the ’Ancient City of TianHuang’ in a month at most." A young man with sword-like eyebrows and extraordinary elegance muttered to himself while looking into the distance through the clouds.

It was Wyatt Barnes who had just left the Seven Stars Sword Clan.

At the moment, Wyatt was commanding a hawk as he rode through the sky...

The Dry Hawk’s speed, although not comparable to Elder Giant Bird’s, was far superior to that of a top-level steed.

This Dry Hawk was captured for Wyatt by ’Elder Giant Bird’, who was entrusted by the Sect Leader.

It wasn’t Elder Giant Bird being stingy. Rather, the stronger a beast was, the harder it was to tame... It took Wyatt using his full strength almost three whole hours to completely tame this First level Original Infant Realm ’Dry Hawk’.

Suddenly.

"Squeak~~"

A squeak emanated from beneath Wyatt Barnes’s long sleeves.

Suddenly, a small golden fuzzy head popped out, looking at Wyatt with a pair of emerald eyes.

It was none other than the tiny golden mouse, a young Sky-Eyed Mouse, that always lingered around Keer.

"Big brother Wyatt, this Patched Feather Bird is too slow."

Wyatt’s eardrum quivered slightly as the innocent voice of the little golden mouse echoed.

Wyatt rolled his eyes at the Little Gold Mouse, "Are you seriously comparing it to yourself? Have you considered the level of its cultivation and your own... Or do you prefer to grow bigger and carry me to the Ancient City? If so, we can get there within a few days at most."

"Hmph, I certainly do not want to get bigger. It’s ugly, disgustingly fat, and utterly unpleasant...."

The Origin Force condensed sound of the Little Gold Mouse continued incessantly.

Leaving Wyatt Barnes speechless.

He looked at the pudgy body of the Little Gold Mouse, shook his head and sighed, "This little fellow really thinks highly of itself... Does it really not feel fat?"

Because they had been travelling high in the air the whole journey, they had encountered no obstruction.

A month later.

The hawk under Wyatt’s feet slowed down its pace, nosedived downwards, and flew low.

At that moment, the mists in front of them dissipated, revealing an ancient and vicissitudinous city before Wyatt’s eyes.

In the distance, the ancient city looked like a dormant giant beast in the desert, its gaping mouth swallowing all the caravans and pedestrians from the desert...

"The Ancient City of SkyDesolation!"

Re-visiting the Ancient City of SkyDesolation again, Wyatt had a deja vu sensation.

The last time he had visited the Ancient City of SkyDesolation, he had only passed by, as his main destination was the ’Hidden Peak’...

This time, his target was precisely the Ancient City of SkyDesolation!

There were many people outside the Ancient City of SkyDesolation who had arrived by riding Fierce Beasts. If it were just because of this, Wyatt would not have attracted any attention.

However, most people who got close to Wyatt couldn’t help but glance at him occasionally.

Their gazes were all focused on the clothes Wyatt was wearing.

The uniform of the Inner Sect of the Seven Stars Sword Clan was undeniably a ’billboard’.

"This young man appears to be just over twenty, absolutely no older than twenty-three... could he actually be an Inner Sect Disciple of the Seven Stars Sword Clan?"

"As far as I know, the minimum requirement to become an Inner Sect Disciple of Seven Stars Sword Clan is to reach ’Original Pill Realm Seventh-Order’. Besides, due to the rigorous examination to become an Inner Sect Disciple of Seven Stars Sword Clan, generally, only those who have stepped into ’Original Pill Realm Level Eight’ are 100% successful in the examination and become Inner Sect disciples of the Seven Stars Sword Clan."

"The current younger generation of the Seven Stars Sword Clan seems to be inept, with Garrett Yellow the Sect Leader’s personal disciple, being the most talented. However, at his age, even Garrett Yellow was only an Outer Sect disciple."

"It seems that this young man is just pretending to be an Inner Sect disciple of the Seven Stars Sword Clan by making a fake uniform, trying to pass as the real deal."

"Must be."

...

Many people who saw Wyatt passed by had these kinds of discussions.

They didn’t believe that Wyatt Barnes was an actual ’Inner Sect disciple’ of the Seven Stars Sword Clan,

Wyatt was too young.

Wyatt heard all these discussions but didn’t pay any attention to them. He landed on the hawk and descended close to ’the Ancient City of SkyDesolation’.

Whoosh!

Wyatt moved, jumped down, and looked at the hawk. He whistled softly.

Immediately, the hawk seemed to have received some form of instruction. With a flap of its wings, it disappeared into the clouds.

It was only after the figure of the hawk had disappeared before Wyatt’s eyes that his gaze shifted back to the Ancient City of SkyDesolation.

He took a step forward, preparing to enter the Ancient City of SkyDesolation.

"Stop!"

Just then, a cold voice halted Wyatt.

Wyatt frowned and turned around.

In the distance, a young man around thirty-five years old, riding a blood sweat horse, watched him from afar...

"Hmm?"

Recognizing the attire on the young man, Wyatt’s eyes brightened.

The uniform of an Inner Sect disciple of the Seven Stars Sword Clan!

Apparently, this young man was also an Inner Sect disciple of the Seven Stars Sword Clan.

However, the next moment, Wyatt’s brows furrowed.

The Seven Stars Sword Clan Inner Sect disciple rode up to Wyatt, looking down at him and berated, "Kid, who are you, and why are you pretending to be an Inner Sect disciple of the Seven Stars Sword Clan?"

Pretending?

Wyatt was taken aback, somewhat confused.

What did he mean?

"Are you still playing dumb?"

Before Wyatt could react, the Inner Sect disciple of the Seven Stars Sword Clan sneered, "Kid, let me tell you, I have seen plenty of people like you, pretending to be disciples of the Seven Stars Sword Clan... A young man in his early twenties, wearing the uniform of an Inner Sect disciple of the Seven Stars Sword Clan, do you really think you are a peerless genius like the Five Great Young Masters?"

After the Inner Sect disciple’s tirade, Wyatt finally reacted and smiled, "Brother, I think you might have misunderstood... I am indeed an Inner Sect disciple of the Seven Stars Sword Clan. My name is ’Wyatt Barnes’. This is a letter from the Sect Leader that I should deliver to Elder ’Shine Dunn’ and Elder ’Peni Relief’. There is an introduction to me in it."

As he spoke, Wyatt took out a letter from his Storage Ring and handed it to the Inner Sect disciple of the Seven Stars Sword Clan.

Since the disciple of the Inner Sect of the Seven Stars Sword Clan was too sharp with his words, he didn’t take it to heart.

He believed it was merely a misunderstanding.

However, moments later, the smile on Wyatt’s face froze.
