Chapter 604: Chapter 604: Other Jade Sword Owners

Speaking the language of humans?

Even Wyatt Barnes, now, was shocked by Little Gold’s ability.

When Little Gold first entered the ’Peep Naught Realm’, it was able to condense the Origin Force into voice, which already astonished him greatly.

You must understand, in the memories of the reincarnated Martial Emperor, only demon beasts that have entered the ’Enter Void Realm’ and above know the technique to ’Condense Origin Force into Voice’.

As for ’Speaking Human Language’, that is a characteristic of demon beasts in the Cave Void Realm.

The reincarnated Martial Emperor, in his two lives, had never seen a demon beast that had not entered the ’Cave Void Realm’, but was able to speak human language.

And now, such an odd creature appeared before Wyatt Barnes’s eyes.

"Based on the memories of the reincarnated Martial Emperor... generally, demon beasts in the ’Enter Void Realm’ can ’Condense Origin Force into Voice’. ’Cave Void Realm’ demon beasts can ’Speak Human Language’, and the ’Transforming Void Realm’ demon beasts can ’Transform into Human Form’."

Wyatt Barnes intently stared at Little Gold nestled comfortably in Karina Hanson’s hand. With a trembling heart, he thought, "As for Little Gold... it was able to condense the Origin Force into voice when it was in the ’Peep Naught Realm’. Now that it has broken through to the ’Enter Void Realm’, it can speak!"

"If it keeps on with this pattern... when it enters the ’Cave Void Realm’, wouldn’t it be able to transform into a human form?"

At this thought, Wyatt Barnes couldn’t help but gasp.

"Julia."

Wyatt Barnes turned toward Karina Hanson and asked, "When did Little Black and Little White begin to ’Condense Origin Force into Voice’ to communicate with you?"

"In the ’Enter Void Realm’."

Karina Hanson explained, "Almost all demon beasts that enter the Void Realm can condense Origin Force into voice. That’s normal... but I can’t make sense of why Little Gold can speak the human language."

"Just as I thought."

Wyatt Barnes let out a soft sigh. Little Black and Little White, like normal demon beasts, only began to ’Condense Origin Force into Voice’ when they entered the ’Enter Void Realm’.

But Little Gold was an exception.

"Julia, you don’t know... when Little Gold first broke through to the ’Peep Naught Realm’, it could already condense Origin Force into voice and communicate with me."

Wyatt Barnes added.

"What?!"

Karina Hanson was taken aback once more. She looked intently at Little Gold in her hands, she pondered, "This little fellow is so special? If this continues, wouldn’t it be able to transform into a human when it enters the Cave Void Realm and directly become a ’yao’?"

"A ’Yao’ of the ’Cave Void Realm’... I’ve never heard of such a thing."

As she said this, Karina Hanson shook her head, her eyes filled with confusion and puzzlement.

Even she couldn’t figure out why Little Gold was so ’special’.

"Looking at it this way, this little critter really is extraordinary."

Wyatt Barnes glanced at Little Gold and sighed.

"Squeak, squeak~~"

Little Gold squeaked twice then turned to the two small pythons, "You... you... you cannot talk... you... you’re not as powerful as me..."

Seeing Little Gold dare to challenge Little Black and Little White, Wyatt Barnes couldn’t help but shake his head and chuckle bitterly.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

A streak of black and a streak of white lightning flashed past, and Little Gold promptly curled up in Karina Hanson’s hands, "Gentle... gentlemen... fight... with words... not fists..."

The words of Little Gold reached the ears of Wyatt Barnes and Karina Hanson, causing both to pause and smile at each other in surprise.

Where did this little fellow learn these words from?

"Little Gold is quite lucky... This time, we can bring it along to the ’Sword Emperor Treasury’. Maybe it will find its destiny there."

Karina Hanson suggested.

Wyatt Barnes nodded in agreement.

The following two days, Wyatt Barnes and Karina Hanson did not leave and spent their time in the inn.

Before they knew it, the day they had agreed upon with the other Jade Sword owners had arrived.

And Wyatt Barnes and Karina Hanson set off toward ’Stag Ridge’.

Stag Ridge, located north of the Imperial City of the Eastern Mulberry Empire, is a vast range of hills that covers an area dozens of times the size of the Imperial City itself.

"Wyatt, when we meet up with them and reach the ’Sword Emperor Treasury’. When we use the Nine Jade Swords to open the treasury, do you think I should freeze them all into ice pops? That way, no one will fight us for the treasures inside."

Karina Hanson eyes twinkled, her face revealing a devilish grin.

Even though Wyatt Barnes had considered this plan before.

But hearing Karina Hanson say it out loud made him shudder, he thought, "Julia really is a little witch at heart. Thankfully, she is a friend and not an enemy."

"There’s no need."

Wyatt Barnes shook his head, rejecting Karina Hanson’s plan.

In the recent days, aside from training, he had been thinking about various matters concerning the Sword Emperor’s Treasury.

The treasury that belonged to the Sword Emperor was undoubtedly left behind by a sword cultivator who had achieved the rank of martial emperor.

This could be surmised from its name alone.

Generally, the ’treasuries’ left behind by martial emperors and martial gods were more or less ’games’ they intentionally set up. Though they may contain abundant treasures, there were definitely corresponding tests to access them.

"Back in the day, the Reincarnated Martial God used to be involved in similar ’games’... Once, he purposely set up a treasury, and in the end, everyone who entered it perished!"

These memories sent a chill down Wyatt Barnes’s spine.

In the eyes of those powerful martial emperors and martial gods, even the beings at the fourth level of the void realm, the ’Transforming Void Realm’, were no different than ants.

The deaths of ants could hardly affect their mental state.

To them, these ’games’ they set up were merely a source of entertainment.

"Julia, think about it... Even if there are treasures in the Sword Emperor’s Treasury, they certainly won’t be easy to get. If they go in with us, they can help us scout the way and we can take fewer risks."

Wyatt Barnes said to Karina Hanson, "If we really encounter some treasures inside, then you can seize them... after all, with your strength, no one among them should be able to match you."

"You are always more thoughtful, Wyatt... Alright, let’s do it like that."

Wyatt Barnes’s suggestion received Karina Hanson’s approval. A smirk appeared on Karina Hanson’s face, "I love stealing stuff... When I was a kid, I always stole Iris’ toys."

"Iris?"

Upon hearing Karina Hanson’s words, Wyatt Barnes was taken aback, "Who is she?"

Karina Hanson’s eyes sparkled mischievously, "She’s Uncle Woodson’s daughter, older than me by half a month... Since childhood, I’ve taken a great pleasure in nabbing her stuff, and every time, she would cry her eyes out."

Wyatt Barnes was left speechless.

He mourned silently for that ’Iris Woodson’.

Then, Wyatt Barnes took out the Jade Sword, infused his Origin Force into it, setting up a connection with the other holders of the Jade Swords.

"Squeak Squeak~~"

Little Gold peeked its head out under Wyatt Barnes’ sleeve, making a couple of squeaks and curiously observing its surroundings.

After two days of rest, Little Gold was in high spirits.

"Hiss Hiss~~"

From under Karina Hanson’s sleeve, two little pythons also poked their heads out. They stuck out their tongues and provocatively glanced at Little Gold.

"You two numbskulls can’t even talk."

The childish voice of Little Gold finally made sense.

However, its provoking words enraged the two little pythons.

If it wasn’t for Karina calming the little pythons, they might have already pounced on Little Gold.

"Little Gold, you can’t go on like this... If you continue, next time I won’t stop them. I’ll let Little Black and Little White have a go at you."

Wyatt Barnes glared at Little Gold. Little Gold cheekily stuck its tongue out then went back inside his sleeve without another peep.

"Little Black, Little White, you two hide as well."

Wyatt Barnes said to the little pythons before calling Karina Hanson, "Julia, let’s go over there!"

Both Wyatt and Julia headed north towards Wild Chicken Ridge.

Once they were above a lush mountain valley in the middle of Wild Chicken Ridge, Wyatt Barnes looked down and said, "Julia, let’s go down... This is where I agreed to meet them."

Then, both Wyatt Barnes and Karina Hanson descended into the valley.

At that moment, four people were already waiting in the valley.

These four people were divided into two groups.

One group consisted of two elegantly dressed middle-aged men.

The other group was formed by a sturdy middle-aged man and an elderly man in a blue robe.

When they saw Wyatt Barnes and Karina Hanson appear, all four were flabbergasted.

A twenty-five-year-old young man and a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl...

Could this be a pair of siblings who’ve lost their way?

The four of them didn’t believe that these two were also among the owners of one of the Jade Swords.

"Young lady, have you and your brother lost your way?"

The muscular middle-aged man took a step forward, smiled, and asked Karina as if he was dealing with a child.

"You!"

Before Karina could react, Wyatt Barnes standing next to her, exclaimed.

"You are?"

Upon hearing Wyatt’s words, the muscular middle-aged man was taken aback as he scanned him from head to toe, "Brother, do I know you?"

"Although you don’t recognize me, it seems like we’ve had more than one exchange previously right? You... you can’t even recognize my voice?"

Wyatt Barnes squinted his eyes and said slowly.

As soon as the muscular middle-aged man started speaking, he recognized his voice.

It was indeed the voice of the first Jade Sword owner he contacted, the one with the booming voice.

"You... it’s you!"

The muscular middle-aged man finally reacted, he looked at Wyatt as if he’d seen a ghost and then forced a smile: "I really didn’t expect you to be this young."

Upon saying this, he glanced at Karina Hanson standing next to Wyatt, growing speechless.

This guy, he brought a young girl along. Does he think the ’Sword Emperor’s Treasury’ is a place to play house?

"I’m ’Echo Reid.’ What’s your name, brother?"

The muscular middle-aged man asked.

"Wyatt Barnes."

Wyatt Barnes answered.

"So you are Brother Wyatt... This is ’Elder Cruz,’ my senior,"

At this time, Echo Reid introduced the elderly man in a blue robe standing next to him to Wyatt.

"Elder Cruz,"

Wyatt greeted the old man with a smile.

"Hmm."

Elder Cruz merely nodded his head and then ignored him. It was clear that he didn’t take Wyatt seriously.

Wyatt didn’t mind.

After all, his age was a clear indication for anyone not to pay attention to him.

However, while Wyatt didn’t think much of it, Karina Hanson wasn’t having that. "Old man, didn’t you hear my Brother Wyatt greeting you? What I hate the most is old geezers like you who think you can do anything because you’re old!"
