Legend of Wyatt
Chapter 635 Mrs. Adams

Chapter 635: Chapter 635 Mrs. Adams

Seeing the look of reverence on the faces of a group of the Romero Clan’s guards, Wyatt Barnes knew that he hadn’t got the wrong place.

This was indeed the ’Romero Clan’ mentioned by Taoi Romero in the past.

"However, why doesn’t the Romero Clan recognize Winnie?"

This was something that Wyatt didn’t quite understand.

At this moment, the leading guard of the Romero Clan was the first to come back to his senses, took a deep breath, and asked Wyatt, "Young Master, do you... do you know ’the Grand Master’?"

"Grand Master?"

Wyatt Barnes was startled, then realized that the ’Grand Master’ the guard was referring to was ’Taoi Romero’.

"Yes, I know him. I came here specifically to find him."

Wyatt Barnes nodded.

Seeing Wyatt Barnes admit it, when the guard of the Romero Clan looked at him again, there was a certain degree of awe in his eyes, "My apologies for my earlier disrespect, I hope you can forgive me."

Wyatt Barnes smiled slightly, "No problem. Can you pass a message for me?"

"Young Master, please follow me."

Instead of going inside to pass the message, the guard of the Romero Clan directly called to Wyatt Barnes and then led the way into the Romero family mansion.

As for the other guards, they respectfully watched Wyatt Barnes’ figure depart.

"The Grand Master has not appeared publicly for many years... I can’t believe that such a young man knows him."

"Yes, the Grand Master is a ’legend’ in our Romero Clan... Legend has it that if the Grand Master hadn’t been disinterested in the position of our clan’s chief, he would now be the chief."

"I’ve heard the same thing."

"The Grand Master’s power is said to have reached an incredible state, even surpassing the two elder ancestors of our Romero Clan."

...

The Romero Clan’s guards were whispering to each other.

There was nothing but awe in their words for ’Taoi Romero’.

Taoi Romero, the ’Grand Master’ of the Romero Clan, was also the ’big brother’ of the current chief of the Romero clan...

In the Romero Clan, his position was not below the chief, and was on par with the two Elder Ancestors.

Wyatt Barnes found all this out from the guard’s words as they walked along the way.

"I didn’t expect that the former City Lord Romero had such a background."

Wyatt Barnes was secretly surprised.

At the same time, Wyatt Barnes asked the guard leading the way in curiosity. "Brother, your Romero Clan’s mansion is built with great magnificence, even comparable to the imperial palace... I suppose your Romero Clan must have a significant status in the Great Turdo Dynasty?"

Wyatt’s words were actually more probing.

As the words fell, a look of pride appeared on the face of the Romero Clan guard, who then asked Wyatt Barnes, "Young Master, you are not from our Great Turdo Dynasty, are you?"

"How can you tell?"

Wyatt Barnes was taken aback.

"If young master were from the Great Turdo Dynasty, there’s no way you wouldn’t know about our Romero Clan....."

The Romero Clan guard showed a trace of a smile.

Wyatt Barnes’s eyebrows raised slightly.

He had a vague sense that the Romero Clan probably had an extraordinary status in the Great Turdo Dynasty.

At this moment, the Romero Clan guard politely asked, "May I ask your name, Young Master?"

"Wyatt Barnes."

Wyatt spoke frankly.

"So, it’s Young Master Wyatt... if I’m not mistaken, I expect you’ve come to the Great Turdo Dynasty mostly for the ’Martial Contest of the Dynasty’?"

By the end of his speech, the Romero Clan guard took a deep look at Wyatt.

"Correct."

Wyatt didn’t hide anything, and then asked somewhat surprised, "How did you figure it out? Given my age, it’s hard for anyone to associate me with the ’Martial Contest of the Dynasty’."

Indeed.

The Martial Contest of the Dynasty gathered the most outstanding young talents from the Great Turdo Dynasty and other major empires.

Usually, these young talents were around thirty-five years old.

It was hard for anyone to associate a young man in his mid-twenties like Wyatt with the ’Martial Contest of the Dynasty’.

"Young Master Wyatt, I was actually guessing... since you know the Grand Master, you should not be seen as ordinary."

The Romero Clan guard said this matter-of-factly with a smile.

In his words, he showed extreme blind admiration for Taoi Romero, the ’Grand Master’ of the Romero Clan.

It actually worked?

Wyatt was somewhat speechless.

At the same time, Wyatt realized the ’status’ of Taoi Romero in the Romero Clan...

Not the clan chief, but superior to the clan chief!

"Given City Lord Romero’s status in the Romero Clan... One would assume that his daughter, ’Winnie’, should be widely known by the Romero Clan’s people. Then why don’t they recognize Winnie?"

This was something Wyatt couldn’t understand.

However, he didn’t directly ask the Romero Clan guard.

"I’ll wait until I see City Lord Romero or Winnie to ask about it."

Wyatt thought to himself.

The Romero Clan’s mansion was vast, comparable with the palace of the Black Stone Empire, and featured numerous winding paths.

On the way, he could see many busy servants and maids.

Wyatt Barnes followed behind the Romero Clan’s guard, heading towards the eastern side of the Romero Clan’s mansion...

In the end, they stood in front of an incredibly spacious mansion.

This mansion was a ’mansion within a mansion’, located in the middle of the Romero Clan’s mansion, with a door tightly closed, completely separated from the outside world.

"Young Master Wyatt, this is where ’Grand Master’ resides."

The Romero Clan’s guard looked at Wyatt and respectfully said.

Following this, he stepped forward and knocked on the mansion’s main gate.

After a moment, the gate was slowly opened.

An elderly figure appeared behind the gate.

This was an old woman, her face etched with age and dressed in green. She looked just like a decrepit old hag...

But upon closer inspection, two deep sources of energy could be seen emanating from her eyes.

This old woman, was not ordinary.

"Senior Adams."

Facing the old woman, the Romero house guard respectfully bowed.

"What is it?"

The old woman did not lift her head, but questioned in a nonchalant manner.

"Senior!"

Before the Romero house guard could speak, Wyatt Barnes could not help but speak first.

He knew this old woman.

She was none other than Mrs. Adams, who he had met previously at the Main Mansion in Phoenix Perch City.

She was also someone who was always by Winnie’s side.

Back then, Mrs. Adams willingly knelt before him for Winnie’s sake. Her loyalty to Winnie was evident for all to see.

Wyatt Barnes had always held respect for Mrs. Adams.

Wyatt’s voice broke the somewhat solemn atmosphere.

Mrs. Adams lifted her head slowly and with a single glance, saw Wyatt Barnes standing behind the house guard.

"Wyatt... Young Master Wyatt!"

On seeing Wyatt Barnes, Mrs. Adam’s murky eyes flickered with energy and she exclaimed in surprise.

The Romero house guard, seeing the old woman lose her composure and even calling Wyatt by name, began to realize Wyatt was no ordinary individual.

What a joke!

He knew very well who the old woman in front of him was.

This old woman was rumored to be the personal handmaid of the Madam Clan Chief of the previous generation of the Romero Clan and was also a formidable individual in her own right.

Today, even the Clan Chief of the Romero Clan has to show some courtesy when facing her.

With a single command, she could control the life and death of Romero house guards like him.

"Senior, long time no see."

Wyatt Barnes greeted Mrs. Adams with a nod and a smile as his way of paying respects.

Mrs. Adams did not take offence and asked Wyatt Barnes to come in, "Young Master Wyatt, please come in."

As Wyatt Barnes walked into the mansion, he did not forget to nod in gratitude at the Romero house guard, "Thank you for your service."

"Young Master Wyatt, you are too kind."

The Romero house guard hurriedly replied modestly.

It was only when the mansion’s gate closed, the Romero house guard took a deep breath and turned to leave.

His heart was filled with shock:

"Even Senior Adams was extremely respectful when facing that young man just now... Even our Romero Clan’s young masters have never received such treatment from Senior Adams."

"Could he be the illegitimate son of the Clan Chief?"

The Romero house guard couldn’t help but speculate.

Of course, this was only speculation.

If he dared to voice his suspicion, even ten lives would not be enough punishment.

Now, Wyatt Barnes had entered the mansion, the one belonging to Taoi Romero, the head of the Romero family, accompanied by Mrs. Adams.

"Young Master Wyatt, when did you arrive in the capital city?"

As she led Wyatt Barnes deeper into the mansion, Mrs. Adams asked.

"I’ve been here for a while."

Wyatt responded with a slight smile, then asked, "Senior, are City Lord Romero and Winnie here?"

Mrs. Adams shook her head, "The City Lord and the young lady left for a trip last month. They will probably be gone for a while... However, they should be back before the ’Dynasty Martial Competition.’"

They left?

Wyatt Barnes gave a bitter smile, it seemed his timing was off.

Soon, Wyatt Barnes was led into the grand hall in the center of the mansion by Mrs. Adams, who served him a pot of tea.

Despite the vastness of the mansion, not a single servant or maid could be seen. An eerie silence filled the air.

"Elder Kane isn’t here either?"

Wyatt Barnes looked around before questioning.

Mrs. Adams nodded, "Elder Kane also left with the City Lord and the young lady... Young Master Wyatt, you didn’t come to the capital city of the Great Turdo Dynasty just to see the City Lord and young lady, did you?"

Knowing Wyatt Barnes had been in the capital city of the Great Turdo Dynasty for a while indicated he didn’t come solely for the Romero clan.

"Yes."

Wyatt nodded, "I came specifically for the ’Dynasty Martial Competition.’"

"The Dynasty Martial Competition?"

Mrs. Adams appeared surprised, "Could it be that Young Master Wyatt came as a representative of the Black Stone Empire?"

Wyatt continued nodding.

For a moment, the way Mrs. Adams looked at Wyatt had completely changed, "I didn’t expect that in such a short span of years, Young Master Wyatt would improve his strength so rapidly. He even emerged as the top talent among the many young talents in the Black Stone Empire, earning the right to participate in the ’Dynasty Martial Competition.’"

"Just luck," said Wyatt humbly.

Luck?

Mrs. Adams shook her head. Having lived for so many years, she naturally did not believe it was simply luck.

"Indeed, he is the man destined for our young lady... Truly extraordinary," Mrs. Adams sighed inwardly.
