Legend of Wyatt
Chapter 490: Ann King in Danger

Chapter 490: Chapter 490: Ann King in Danger

Mental damage compensation?

Upon hearing that all Wyatt Barnes wanted was money, all the high-ups of the Yellow Family, including their Clan Chief, breathed a sigh of relief.

Being one of the three great families in Blackwind City on par with the Marston Clan, the Yellow Family was naturally wealthy.

However, their expressions soon changed.

Just because Wyatt Barnes demanded a staggering amount of countless gold...

"Isn’t this a bit too much?"

The Yellow Family’s Clan Chief hesitated as he glanced at Wyatt Barnes.

The one who had caught Little Gold back then and auctioned it off in the Marston auction house, the elder of the Yellow Family, turned green at this point.

You must understand, even when he auctioned off Little Gold, he only made a few million pieces of gold.

This young man had quoted a price that was more than ten times what he’d earned from selling Little Gold.

This was sheer extortion!

"Too much?"

Wyatt Barnes smiled faintly, "Clan Chief Yellow, I believe your Yellow Family can afford this... Oh, the Chief of the Marston Clan was much more generous. He handed me a hundred million pieces of gold without uttering a second word."

The Marston Clan, a hundred million pieces of gold?

Upon hearing Wyatt Barnes’s words, the members of the Yellow Family were all dumbfounded.

"Clan Chief Yellow, I’ll give you three breaths to consider... If you’re unwilling, my little friend here might act on impulse and create a problem that money can’t solve."

A devilish smile appeared on Wyatt Barnes’s face.

"Squeak~~"

On Wyatt Barnes’s shoulder, Little Gold, waved the ’Fifth-grade spirit sword’ in his small hand, as if he was saying to the Clan Chief of the Yellow Family:

Pay up now, or I’ll wipe you all out!

A twitch emerged at the corner of the Clan Chief’s mouth, and in the end, he could only compromise.

He didn’t doubt Wyatt Barnes’s threat for a bit.

With a three breath delay, this Demon Beast who was in the third stage of the Peep Naught Realm would definitely lash out at them.

"Chief Yellow, you are indeed quick to respond!"

After receiving the money, Wyatt Barnes beamed brightly and quickly looked at that supreme elder of the Yellow Family, "Elder, next time when you’re catching Fierce Beasts, you’d better open your eyes wide and see clearly... Otherwise, you alone would be enough to bankrupt your Yellow Family."

Wyatt Barnes’s departing words caused the supreme elder’s face to turn red.

It wasn’t until Wyatt Barnes’s figure disappeared from sight that the elder finally regained his breath, and he spat a mouthful of blood due to the anger-induced internal injury.

The pool of blood on the ground looked like a vibrant red rose in full bloom.

Wyatt Barnes was thoroughly pleased when he left the Yellow Family mansion, "Now, adding the money given by the Yellow Family... I have ’two hundred million’ in cash vouchers!"

"Squeak~~"

Little Gold squeaked twice with his Spirit Sound, "Brother Wyatt, don’t forget about my meat..."

"Don’t worry, from now on, if we eat at a restaurant, I’ll order a table full of meat just for you, okay?"

Brother Wyatt was in a great mood and made a promise to Little Gold.

"Heehee... Brother Wyatt is the best."

Little Gold’s Spirit Sound was filled with excitement.

It was now late into the night. Wyatt Barnes took Little Gold and left the Yellow Family mansion, planning to return to the inn.

The streets were nearly empty on the way.

All of a sudden, two figures rushed past Wyatt Barnes. Normally, it wouldn’t have been a big deal, but their whispered conversation caught Wyatt Barnes’s attention.

"Fourth Brother, who is that woman named ’Ann King’? ’Boss Isaac’ actually personally captured her."

"Shush... Keep your voice down. Don’t ask what you shouldn’t. She’s followed by a terrifyingly powerful man. If not for the large sum of money offered by ’President Jan’, Boss Isaac wouldn’t dare to risk kidnapping her while the strong man was in secluded cultivation. Remember, if the strong man finds out, it will mean certain death."

Although the two’s voices were low, Wyatt Barnes could still hear them clearly.

Ann King?

Wyatt Barnes’s brows furrowed.

He remembered that the wife of Brother Graham he met in Phoenix Perch City was called ’Ann King’.

"Accompanied by a terrifying man? Could they be talking about Brother Graham?"

Wyatt Barnes inhaled sharply.

Brother Graham was the ’Brian Graham’ he got to know at the ’King Eternal Tavern’ in Phoenix Perch City.

Later, the married couple sent him and Jovie Lee back to the Sword Clan and then left.

"Let’s follow and see."

Despite the uncertainty, Wyatt Barnes decided to follow them into a lavish mansion.

This mansion was privately owned, thus those living there were either rich or noble.

"President Jan."

Hiding outside the hall, Wyatt Barnes heard the two men paying their respect to a middle-aged man dressed in brocade clothes in the hall.

"Who are you?"

The man in brocade clothes clearly didn’t know the two.

"President Jan, who we are is not important... what’s important is, the task you entrusted Boss Isaac with has been completed."

One of the two men replied with a faint smile.

"What do you mean by that, brother?"

Despite maintaining his composure, the middle-aged man in brocade clothes seemed agitated, which Wyatt Barnes could tell from his fluctuating breaths.

"This man is really careful."

Wyatt Barnes thought to himself.

"President Hanson...a woman named ’Ann King’ is currently visiting in Boss Williams’ residence."

One of the two spoke candidly.

"Really?!"

This time, the silk-robed middle-aged man completely lost his composure, a look of ecstacy appearing on his face, "Has Boss Williams really captured that wretch?"

"Yes. The strong man by that woman’s side happened to be in seclusion, and Boss Williams managed to trick her out and captured her. President Hanson, Boss Williams has asked us to bring you over, to eliminate any disruptions... The idea is to get this done before that strong man realizes something is wrong."

Another one among the two people, added.

"Ha ha... Great! I’ll go with you right now."

The silk-robed middle-aged man who was called ’President Hanson’ laughed heartily, and left the hall with the two men, leaving his private mansion.

Wyatt Barnes continued the tailing.

"Could it really be my sister-in-law?"

Wyatt frowned. As far as he knew, Ann King shouldn’t have had a grudge with the people of Blackwind City.

He knew what type of person Ann King was.

Perhaps, it was a woman who just happened to have the same name, and also happened to have a strong man by her side.

However, to be on the safe side, Wyatt decided to follow them.

If this ’Ann King’ really was the wife of Brother Graham, his sister-in-law, and he missed this, he would never forgive himself.

Wyatt followed the three and soon arrived at another corner of Blackwind City, inside a low-profile residence.

The residence was really isolated.

If it weren’t for the three leading the way, Wyatt might not have even been able to find this place.

Soon, Wyatt spotted the silk-robed middle-aged man and the other two men entering the backyard of the residence.

In the backyard, there was an independent house with a mutt guarding the entrance.

"Woof woof~~"

The dog started barking affectionately at the sight of the man in the silk robe.

"Lucky, quiet, we are not outsiders."

The two men in the lead hurriedly comforted the dog, quieting it down for the moment.

"President Hanson, Boss Williams is inside. Please."

The two men ushered the man in the silk robe into the house and closed the door behind them.

Wyatt followed them into the backyard. He saw the dog looking at him. Just as it opened its mouth to bark, Wyatt’s mind power burst forth, using the Soul Technique ’Thousand Illusions’ to create an illusory space, making the dog fall asleep and silent, like a dead pig.

Slap!

Suddenly, a loud and clear slap came from the house, followed by the voice of ’President Hanson’: "Ann King, you lowlife, your day has come... I’m going to enjoy watching you suffer. Let’s see how that man of yours rescues you today!"

Slap! Slap! Slap! Slap! Slap!

...

Clear and crisp slaps continuously echoed.

"Jan Hanson, you’re despicable! You couldn’t compete with me in business, so you resort to such low means to deal with me...you’re a disgrace to the fan-club association."

A crisp and pleasant voice came out timely, hiding any signs of happiness or anger.

"Hmph! So what if I used tricks? Who else can boast of as many friends as Jan Hanson? This Brother Isaac Williams is one of my good friends... You, in the end, still fell into Brother Isaac’s hands no matter how strong the man by your side is."

Jan Hanson sneered arrogantly, "Today, I will kill you! You lowlife, you dare to fight me."

"Sister-in-law!"

When Wyatt heard the woman’s voice, he felt a sense of familiarity. After a moment, he finally remembered it.

That voice was indeed his Brother Graham’s wife, ’Ann King’.

"Stop!"

Without a moment’s hesitation, Wyatt yelled, bursting open the door of the house and rushing in.

This was a separate ’torture room’.

Right in the center of the torture room was a torture pillar, with a woman tied to it. Despite being in a disheveled state, she remained unyielding. Her unwavering spirit could put many men to shame.

It was ’Ann King’.

Brother Graham’s wife.

"Sister-in-law!"

Seeing the numerous bruises on the woman’s face, Wyatt’s expression changed. He shouted, "Little Gold!"

In an instant, Little Gold on Wyatt’s shoulder transformed into a beam of golden light and shot out, biting off the rope that bound Ann King and setting her free.

"Elder Brother Ling Tian!"

Ann King thought her doom was near, but to her surprise, someone had come to her rescue.

Moreover, it was someone she knew.

"Who are you, kid? You should have asked around about me, ’Blood Panther’ Isaac... In this area of Blackwind City, even members of the three major families wouldn’t dare to cross me easily! Today, since you’ve come here, don’t think about leaving."

A burly middle-aged man with half his torso bared, revealing a ’blood panther’ tattoo, spoke to Wyatt with a murderous glint in his eyes.

The silk-robed Jan Hanson was also watching Wyatt with a mocking look.

"Really?"

Wyatt sneered.

This Half-step Void Realm martial artist dared to boast in front of him?

"Blood Panther? Today, I will turn you into a ’Dead Panther’!"

Just then, a voice filled with savage ruthlessness roared from outside the house, instantly flooding the entire house.

The voice was laced with extreme fury...
