Legend of Wyatt
Chapter 432: Who Guides Who

Chapter 432: Chapter 432: Who Guides Who

After Winnie Romero finished introducing the ’Spirit Cleansing Pool’, her gaze subtly landed on Wyatt Barnes’ hand, shimmering with a bewildering brilliance.

For most people, this little action of hers would go unnoticed.

However, Wyatt Barnes’ mental strength was so profound that he noticed it immediately.

"What, you like it?"

Wyatt Barnes picked up the Night Pearl and rainbow-colored gem necklace from his hand and handed them to Winnie Romero, "I’ll give it to you."

Winnie Romero’s pretty face first flushed a rosy color, then, as if reminiscing something, she sighed lightly, "Brother Barnes, you should save these for your two sisters-in-law..."

Wyatt Barnes could feel the sense of loss in Winnie Romero’s tone, he shook his head with a smile, insisting on stuffing the rainbow-colored gem necklace into Winnie’s hand. The moment he touched her, she trembled like a touch of electricity.

"This necklace is for you, and I’ll keep the Night Pearl for myself... no refusals allowed."

As Wyatt Barnes spoke, his tone became unyieldingly authoritative.

Wyatt Barnes was clear.

Both the Night Pearl and the rainbow-colored gem necklace were given to him as an ’apology gift’ by the heads of the Jimenez and Fleming families, out of fear that they might provoke Taoi Romero.

After all, in their eyes, he was already Taoi Romero’s future son-in-law.

So, it could be said that both items were given to him thanks to Taoi Romero’s influence.

Now, giving them to Winnie Romero was only natural.

"Thank you, Brother Barnes."

Winnie Romero lowered her head, somewhat shy.

The rainbow-colored gem necklace was tightly gripped in her hand, as if she was afraid of losing it.

Shortly after, Winnie Romero guided Wyatt Barnes to an independent courtyard.

"Grandpa Kane."

With Winnie’s help, Wyatt Barnes met an elderly man.

The old man, dressed in grey, stood there, giving off a profound and unfathomable aura.

Wyatt Barnes understood that this elderly man must be the ’Master of Inscriptions’ mentioned by Taoi Romero, and the owner of that mighty spirit force he had encountered a few days ago.

"Elder Kane."

Wyatt Barnes nodded slightly at the old man.

The old man reciprocated Wyatt Barnes’ nod then turned to Winnie. His cloudy eyes filled with affection, "Miss, why are you here?"

"Grandpa Kane, my father has asked you to guide Brother Barnes in the ’Art of Inscriptions’... I won’t disturb you," Winnie smiled at the old man, waved at Wyatt Barnes, and then turned to leave.

Within moments, only Wyatt Barnes and the old man remained.

A sense of gratitude appeared in Wyatt Barnes’ eyes.

He could see that Winnie was genuinely trying to help him.

Unfortunately, when it came to the Art of Inscriptions, he simply didn’t need guidance from anyone...

After all, while he had absorbed the life-long memories of Martial Emperor, he’d also mastered the Martial Emperor’s understanding of the Art of Inscriptions.

In his eyes,

In this Cloud Skies Continent, there was no inscription master qualified to guide him in the ’Art of Inscriptions’.

"Young man, Miss Romero seems to care for you a lot, you had better not let her down... Otherwise, I will not let you off the hook," the grey-cloaked old man’s eyes were keen, his tone carrying a hint of warning.

At this, Wyatt Barnes merely smiled dismissively.

"Since Young Master Romero and Miss Romero have asked, then let me guide you on the ’Art of Inscriptions’... How much you learn will depend on your capabilities. Now, tell me, how much do you know about the Art of Inscriptions?" The old man’s voice carried a sense of authority.

How much do I know about the Art of Inscriptions?

Wyatt Barnes gave a wry smile, and then began to lay out some elementary concepts from the Martial Emperor’s memories on the Art of Inscriptions.

Half an hour later.

The old man’s face had shifted from its initial surprise to disbelief, then finally to complete shock.

"You... you..."

In the end, the old man completely lost his composure to the point of stuttering.

The way the old man looked at Wyatt Barnes has completely changed. The casual dismissal had disappeared, replaced by a newfound respect.

Many of the opinions and insights Wyatt Barnes shared opened new horizons for him. Some of his past confusion and dilemmas were suddenly made clear.

"How should the Alejandro Wind Inscription’s various levels of wind realms be paired with materials?"

"How can the Aurora Inscription completely disrupt the opponent’s vision? How do you successfully engrave it?"

"Uh..."

Gradually, what was supposed to be the old man guiding Wyatt Barnes had transformed into Wyatt Barnes advising the old man.

The old man continued asking questions tirelessly.

"Alright, Elder Kane, we’ll exchange ideas when we have more time."

Wyatt Barnes answered a pile of questions for the old man and then sighed exasperatedly.

He had to admit, the old man was potent, and his spirit force was formidable.

But, to consider the old man’s mediocre inscriptions skills as ’Master of Inscriptions’ as proclaimed by Taoi Romero? He found that hard to swallow.

If the old man could be called a Master of Inscriptions, then what was he?

Ancestral Master of Inscriptions?

When Wyatt Barnes left, the old man was still in a daze, muttering to himself, sometimes frowning, sometimes looking relieved.

It was as if he had suddenly gained a new perspective on something.

"Hmmm, Brother Wyatt, has that old man finished asking his questions?"

On their way home, the sound of Little Gold’s Origin Force came to Wyatt Barnes’ ears.

Little Gold had fallen asleep on Wyatt’s shoulder while the old man was asking a bunch of questions.

"Who cares whether he’s finished asking or not, I didn’t come here to be his teacher."

Wyatt Barnes rolled his eyes, showing an indifferent expression.

"Heehee... City Lord Romero even said that the old man should give pointers to you, Brother Wyatt, yet it turns out the old man himself is inferior to you."

The voice formed from Little Gold’s Origin Force was filled with pride.

It was as if the one who had guided the old man on Inscription techniques earlier wasn’t Wyatt Barnes, but Little Gold itself.

Not long after Wyatt returned home, Winnie Romero brought a servant to serve the warm food they had prepared into his room.

"Winnie, let’s eat together."

At this moment, Wyatt Barnes invited Winnie Romero to join him for their meal.

The two of them ate while talking to each other.

"Brother Barnes, did you gain a lot from Grandpa Kane today? Grandpa Kane is a great ’Master of Inscriptions’. Many people want to be guided by him, but don’t have the opportunity."

Winnie Romero slowly said.

Gained something?

Winnie’s words made Wyatt Barnes smile wryly.

What could he have gained?

"Winnie... You should go and ask Elder Kane yourself about that."

Wyatt Barnes shook his head with laughter, continued eating without saying much else.

"Huh?"

Upon hearing Barnes’ words, Winnie Romero was puzzled, and she had no idea what he meant.

"Squeak ~~"

Little Gold, hearing the conversational content between Wyatt Barnes and Winnie Romero, made a light squeaking sound, and a somewhat human-like expression of amusement appeared in its bright green eyes.

Meanwhile, during Wyatt Barnes and Winnie Romero’s mealtime...

Taoi Romero arrived outside a spacious secluded courtyard, where he called out: "Elder Kane."

"Young Master, please come in."

As the voice of an old man echoed from within the courtyard, Taoi Romero walked in.

Before long, Taoi found the old man standing there, his face dull, muttering to himself as if recalling something.

"Elder Kane, I came here to ask for a favor... These several days, if that ’Wyatt Barnes’ who defeated Winnie in the martial arts platform comes to you for consultation on the art of inscriptions, I hope you wouldn’t hesitate to teach him."

Taoi Romero said to the old man, his words contained a hint of respect.

The old man had been with him since he was young. Their relationship was no different from ordinary father and son.

"Young Master, please don’t joke about me, an old man."

The old man came back to his senses, and a helpless smile surfaced on his aged face.

"Huh?"

Taoi Romero was startled. It was the first time he saw such an expression on the old man, "Elder Kane, why would you say that?"

The old man heaved a deep sigh, "People always say that the landscape is filled with talent, and the new generation will replace the old... Today, I’ve come to understand the meaning of this phrase completely."

Taoi Romero was full of confusion, not knowing what the old man was referring to.

"That young lad, not long ago, Miss Winnie brought him over, asking me to give him guidance on the ’Art of Inscriptions’... At that time, I asked him to explain his understanding of inscription techniques."

The old man paused and there was a shocked look in his eyes as he continued:

"Who knew that in the end, it would be him who was guiding me... I found that his understanding of inscription techniques is nearly divine!"

As the old man spoke, his voice trembled slightly.

Divine?

Taoi Romero was stunned, "Elder Kane, are you joking? Maybe he was just talking nonsense..."

"Impossible!"

The old man shook his head solemnly, "Young Master, when it comes to the study of inscription techniques, I wouldn’t dare say anything about the outside territories... However, looking across the Great Turdo Dynasty, and even considering other major dynasties, there really aren’t many who could match me in the art of inscriptions!"

"That young lad, he not only presented me with some shocking insights, but also answered many of my questions about inscription techniques. Many questions that have perplexed me for many years, he answered without any hesitation, and his answers were exactly right, utterly perfect!"

Upon saying that, Elder Kane imbued his Origin Force into the Storage Ring in his hand.

Suddenly, an incredibly intense light was emitted!

A dazzling white light virtually covered the entire world...

Even Taoi Romero couldn’t help squinting his eyes, exclaiming with shock, "What a powerful ’Aurora Inscription’... Even a warrior at the ninth level of the Enter Void Realm would be disrupted unprepared! Elder Kane, did you succeed?"

Taoi Romero knew that the old man had spent years studying the ’Aurora Inscription’.

"Yes, I succeeded."

The old man nodded his head, then sighed bitterly. "Even I didn’t expect that the ’Aurora Inscription’, which had puzzled me for many years, would be inscribed so easily under the guidance of that young fellow... Moreover, the outcome exceeded my expectations!"

Taoi Romero was stunned and completely taken aback.

Was it because Wyatt Barnes was instructing the old man that the old man was able to successfully inscribe the ’Aurora Inscription’?

He couldn’t believe this was real.

"Elder Kane... he’s at most around twenty-two years old. How could this be possible?!"

Taoi Romero still couldn’t believe it.

"If I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes, heard it with my own ears, and tried it with my own hands... I wouldn’t want to believe it was true. It’s said that the accomplished come first. In the realm of inscriptions, I wholeheartedly respect that young lad."

Elder Kane sighed, "Regardless of anything else, just on the basis of inscription techniques... he would be fit to be my teacher!"

Taoi Romero was again taken aback.

Elder Kane, he actually admires Wyatt Barnes so much?
