Chapter 420: Chapter 420 Ching Washes the Marrow Sutra

As dawn arrived, all life regains vitality.

"Huff!"

Sitting cross-legged on the bed, Wyatt Barnes, who had cultivated all night, exhaled deeply, opening his eyes.

"Crackle..."

Wyatt slightly stretched his arms, a faint sound of bone friction echoed.

"I’m just a bit short of reaching the ’Fifth Level of Original Infant Realm’!"

Feeling his current level of cultivation, satisfaction was evident on Wyatt’s face.

Stepping off the bed, and carrying Little Gold, Wyatt left the room.

Having finished the breakfast prepared by people from the Ancient River Trading Chamber, he went to bid farewell to Peni Relief and the others.

A group from Sword Clan of Seven Stars, led by Peni Relief and Shine Dunn, all gathered to see Wyatt off as he left the Ancient River Trading Chamber.

Only when Wyatt’s figure disappeared from their sight, did they come back to their senses.

"Elder Peni Relief, the president Luan gave me some tea leaves half a month ago, would you like to come to taste them in my place?"

Shine Dunn extended the invitation to Peni Relief.

Peni Relief’s eyes lit up, and he gladly accepted, "Tea from Mr. Luan must be excellent. In that case, I will have to oblige."

Leo Dunn and other three Inner Sect disciples of Sword Clan returned back with Shine Dunn and Peni Relief.

Nobody noticed.

At this moment, at the corner of Leo Dunn’s mouth, a faintly discernable, sinister smile began to form.

On the other side, Wyatt became alert as he turned into the alley.

"Huh? Is it just my imagination?"

Right away, Wyatt’s spiritual power did not sense anything amiss, leading him to doubt himself.

Although after crossing the alley, he noticed a gaze, firmly locked onto him...

It must be said, this man was very cautious and meticulous, even an average warrior from the Void Realm might not have noticed him.

Regrettably, in his previous life as a Military Emperor, Wyatt had acquired exemplary counter-tracking skills and promptly discovered this person hidden in the shadows.

Moreover, employing his sharp spiritual power, he also gauged the man’s cultivation level.

"First level of Peep Naught Realm? This Shine Dunn sure thinks highly of me!"

Wyatt touched his nose, a playful smirk surfaced on his face, as he used Origin Force to communicate with Little Gold, "Little Gold, later I need your help to drag out that unlucky guy...don’t kill him though, I have some questions to ask."

"Yes, yes!"

A sense of excitement and enthusiasm was evident in Little Gold’s voice.

Wyatt was not surprised by this development.

In the past two months, Little Gold has never acted, it might have been bottling up a lot of frustration...

Now, it finally had an outlet for release.

Wyatt then ventured into a secluded alleyway in the Ancient City.

Using his keen spiritual power, Wyatt could sense that the Peep Naught Realm warrior was following him closely, hidden on the sideline, seemingly ready to strike at any moment.

"Little Gold, drag him out!"

After informing Little Gold of the specific location of the warrior, Wyatt immediately commanded it to act.

"Squeak ~~"

With an excited squeak, Little Gold instantly transformed into a streak of golden light, flew out from Wyatt’s sleeve.

In a flash, Wyatt heard a thunderous noise from behind him.

It was Little Gold’s ’Half-Step Entry into Micro Thunder’.

The next moment.

Boom!

"Ah!"

A heavy thud accompanied by a sharp scream echoed.

Wyatt turned around and saw a middle-aged man lying on the ground in a pitiful state, beside him stood Little Gold, clutching a pocket-sized spirit sword in its hand.

"Don’t kill me, don’t kill me!"

Although Little Gold was minuscule, in the eyes of the middle-aged man it was like a fierce beast, provoking panic as he continuously begged for mercy.

"Who are you? Why did Shine Dunn order you to track me?"

Wyatt gave the middle-aged man a glance, asking in a flat tone.

However, the middle-aged man did not respond to Wyatt, he just kept staring at Little Gold, his face full of fear and unease.

"Little Gold, if he doesn’t answer my questions within three breaths, feel free to give him a taste of your sword."

Becoming annoyed by the middle-aged man’s ignorance, Wyatt instructed Little Gold.

"Squeak ~~"

Upon hearing Wyatt’s words, Little Gold nodded hastily. Its turquoise eyes shone coldly and on the pocket-sized spirit sword in its hand, emitted a chilling aura.

"You...you all..."

The mid-aged man’s face drastically changed, he hadn’t imagined that the Inner Sect disciple of Seven Stars Sword Clan he had been tracking and this strange mouse-like Demon Beast were actually working together.

"Shine Dunn, you have really put me in a terrible position!"

The mid-aged man gritted his teeth, chilled inside "Had I known this youngster had such a protect by his side...even if Shine Dunn offered me any more benefits, I would not have taken on this matter."

"You have one breath of time left."

Wyatt’s voice remained calm, speaking like it was of no concern.

The middle-aged man had not anticipated that his momentary lapse would waste two breaths of time...

Now, the words reverberated in his ears appearing like a death sentence, drastically altering his complexion.

"I’ll talk, I’ll talk!"

Seeing the rat-like Demon Beast overpower him, Origin Force flashes from his spirit sword, and the middle-aged man quickly looks at Wyatt Barnes, hurriedly pleading.

"Squeak-squeak~~"

The little golden rat seemed a bit deflated, flourishing its claws at the middle-aged man, as if telling him:

Could you stop cringing? I haven’t even done anything yet.

"Speak."

Wyatt Barnes looks at the middle-aged man and calmly instructs.

"Yes, yes."

The middle-aged man nodded hastily, "It was Shine Dunn who promised me many benefits to come and kill you..."

"To kill me?"

Wyatt’s face darkened, his eyes glinting with a cold light.

"Yes."

The middle-aged man continued, "He asked me to dispose of you cleanly, then retrieve your Storage Ring... He said he doesn’t want anything else, just the set of cultivation methods in your hands."

Wyatt frowned.

At first, he thought Shine Dunn was only doing this to avenge his son, and that’s why he hired this First Level of the Peep Naught Realm Martial Emperor to assassinate him.

But now it seems, things are not as simple as he imagined.

"What kind of cultivation method?"

Wyatt asked.

The middle-aged man did not dare to hesitate and quickly said, "It seems to be some ’Marrow-cleansing and Tendon-changing Scripture’, or wait, maybe ’Ching Washes the marrow Sutra’..."

"The ’Ching Washes the Marrow Sutra’?!"

The pupils of Wyatt Barnes contracted and he was greatly shocked.

"How could that Shine Dunn know about ’Ching Washes the Marrow Sutra’? This set of fabricated cultivation methods made up by me, aside from myself, only Woody Dunn, the outer sect elder of the Heavenly Authority Peak, should know of it... Right, Shine Dunn, Woody Dunn... both their surnames are ’Dunn’! Could they be related?"

Wyatt’s thoughts turned sharply, his piercing gaze fell on the middle-aged man, and he said in a deep voice, "Since Shine Dunn hired you, you must be considered his ’acquaintance’... What is Shine Dunn’s background within the Seven Stars Sword Clan?"

"I think I heard him mention that his great uncle is the Protector Elder of the Seven Stars Sword Clan."

Sensing the chilling intent emanating from the spirit sword of the little golden rat, the middle-aged man trembled and spilled everything he knew.

"Just as I thought!"

Wyatt had finally understood the complete picture.

As it turns out, this Shine Dunn and Woody Dunn are ’cousins’...

"Perhaps, Shine Dunn sent someone to the Seven Stars Sword Clan to investigate me, and that person found Woody Dunn... then, knowing I was in the Ancient City, Woody Dunn told Shine Dunn about my possession of the ’Ching Washes the Marrow Sutra’! Shine Dunn, likewise desired my fabricated ’Ching Washes the Marrow Sutra’."

All of this was not difficult for Wyatt to surmise.

"Woody Dunn, Shine Dunn... since you are so eager to have the ’Ching Washes the Marrow Sutra’, I will give it to you."

As if remembering something, a malicious smile spread across Wyatt’s face.

Seeing this sinister smile, the middle-aged man’s face drastically changed, and he pleaded in panic, "Young Master, I’ve told you everything else... don’t kill me, don’t kill me!"

"Don’t worry, I won’t kill you... as long as you do me one favor, we’ll call it even."

Wyatt calmly said.

"Thank you, Young Master, thank you, Young Master."

The middle-aged man breathed a sigh of relief, quickly nodding.

"Find a secluded place nearby... I have use for it."

Wyatt swept his eyes over the middle-aged man, then looked at Little Gold, "Little Gold, you stay by his side... if he dares to mess around, slay him with one swing of your sword!"

"Squeak-squeak~~"

Little Gold quickly nodded, then turned into a golden light, landing on the shoulder of the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man stiffened, "I wouldn’t dare, I wouldn’t dare."

Soon, the middle-aged man located a secluded inn for Wyatt.

Wyatt sat down at the table in the room, took out a blank, quaint little booklet and a pen, then started ’feverishly writing’.

The middle-aged man stood to one side, not daring to move a muscle.

Little Gold lay on his shoulder, watching with interest as Wyatt feverishly wrote.

Right now, Wyatt was in the process of transcribing a cultivation method.

For the initial part, Wyatt randomly chose an arguably good cultivation method from the memories of his past life as a Martial Emperor, and laid that out as the beginning.

The following half, Wyatt simply fabricated on the spot.

In the blank area in the center, he added twenty-four glaring bold characters...

To continue training, castration is a must;

Without castration, the divine skill cannot be achieved;

Once castrated, a rebirth awaits!

In the end, Wyatt passionately drew five large characters on the cover of the old booklet:

’Ching Washes the Marrow Sutra’.

"The beginning of this cultivation method is indeed intriguing, enough to tempt anyone... But, without the second half, the essence cannot be grasped. I am rather curious to see, after you guys have given up your cultivation to practice this method, become obsessed with it, and when you reach the middle and see those ’twenty-four characters’, what kind of expression you will have."

A mischievous smile surfaced on Wyatt’s face.

He believed that by the time it comes, the expression on the Dunn Family’s faces would be priceless.

The ’ink’ Wyatt used to write the ’Ching Washes the Marrow Sutra’ was a top-grade ancient ink, coupled with the old booklet, it would be difficult to distinguish its authenticity.

"As long as they read the beginning, they’ll certainly be captivated."

Wyatt was very confident about this point.
