Chapter 1881: Chapter 1881: News About Keer
Although, because Wyatt Barnes can transform into the ’Nine-clawed Dragon Warrior’, Cade Simpson is wary of the ’Nine-clawed Divine Dragon’ behind him.
But, this does not mean that Cade Simpson is wary of Wyatt Barnes!
In fact, in Cade Simpson’s eyes, regardless of whether Wyatt Barnes is a Nine-clawed Dragon Warrior or not, he is akin to an ant.
In the history of the Martial Dao Sacred Land, there are countless Seven-clawed and Eight-clawed Dragon Warriors who have accomplished nothing because the humans who gain the ability to transform into a Dragon Warrior do not improve their talent because of it; the talent still relies on oneself.
The ability to transform into a Dragon Warrior only grants him battle prowess stronger than his current state.
Just like Wyatt Barnes now, although his strength is comparable to a Human Saint Realm expert, even if he can transform into a Nine-clawed Dragon Warrior and uses all his means, he cannot be a match for a Heavenly Saint Realm expert.
Even less could he be a match for Cade Simpson, who has already stepped into the ’Saint Immortal Realm’!
In Cade Simpson’s view, Wyatt Barnes’ talent displayed in the Lower Domain of the Martial Dao Sacred Land is decent, yet it is nothing extraordinary.
In the Upper Domain of the Martial Dao Sacred Land, although young experts with talents like Wyatt Barnes are not many, there are quite a few.
In fact, when Cade Simpson was at Wyatt Barnes’ age, he was already at the ’Mid Earth Saint Realm’!
Because of this, he does not think Wyatt Barnes has the potential to catch up with him.
Since he cannot catch up with him, naturally he is not worried!
This realization came when he dismissed the idea of killing Wyatt Barnes.
If Wyatt Barnes had the potential to catch up with him, then even at the risk of angering the Nine-clawed Divine Dragon, he would not have spared Wyatt Barnes.
It can be said that it was precisely because Cade Simpson underestimated Wyatt Barnes’ talent that Wyatt Barnes was able to survive.
"Ahead is Coiled Dragon Lake, the Mansion of Azure Clouds is stationed within."
Ten days later, Wyatt Barnes and his family, along with Trevor Baillie and others, arrived outside the Mansion of Azure Clouds’ station. ’Coiled Dragon Lake’ appeared faintly, and Wyatt Barnes introduced it to Trevor Baillie and others.
"Mansion of Azure Clouds!"
Upon learning that they were about to reach the Mansion of Azure Clouds, whether it was Trevor Baillie, Taoi Romero, or the Nangle brothers and Young Master Holland, they couldn’t help but brighten their eyes.
The Mansion of Azure Clouds was one of the two most powerful quasi-Third-Rate Powers in the Lower Domain of the Martial Dao Sacred Land!
And starting today, they were to enter through the connection of Wyatt Barnes and become members there.
For a moment, everyone was filled with excitement.
With Wyatt Barnes, the Junior House Master of the Mansion of Azure Clouds, leading the way, Trevor Baillie, Taoi Romero, and others entered Coiled Dragon Lake as if it were an unguarded land.
"Jovie, you take Kalel back first."
Before heading to the main hall of the Mansion of Azure Clouds, Wyatt Barnes said to Jovie Lee beside him.
Jovie Lee nodded obediently, greeted Trevor Baillie and others, and then left with Adonis Barnes.
Inside the main hall of the Mansion of Azure Clouds, Trevor Baillie and others met Wyatt Barnes’ father ’Lanni Barnes’ for the first time.
Facing the famous house master of the Mansion of Azure Clouds ’Lanni Barnes’, aside from Fill Bear, who had been following Wyatt Barnes from early on, the others appeared somewhat reserved.
However, with love extending from the person to the object, Lanni Barnes, facing Trevor Baillie, Taoi Romero, and others, did not have any lofty demeanor and appeared approachable, which gradually put Trevor Baillie and others at ease.
In the end, with conversations and laughter, they gathered like old friends meeting again after years.
"Master Baillie, Brother Taoi, and you all... from now on, you may treat this place as your home! As long as you are in the Mansion of Azure Clouds for a day, the Mansion will ensure your safety for a day and also provide you with the best cultivation environment and resources."
Lanni Barnes said to Trevor Baillie and others, given that the people before him were all friends and family of his son, he, as a father, naturally could not neglect them.
"Thank you, House Master Barnes."
Upon hearing this, Trevor Baillie and others thanked him promptly.
"Wyatt, after you settle your senior brother and Uncle Taoi and the others, come back to find me."
When Wyatt Barnes was about to take Trevor Baillie and others to rest, just as he stepped out of the main hall’s door, he heard his father Lanni Barnes’ voice.
He could discern that his father’s voice carried a heavy tone.
In an instant, Wyatt Barnes felt a foreboding premonition rise in his heart.
Though curious about why his father had asked him to return, Wyatt Barnes nonetheless returned after settling Trevor Baillie and others.
"Father, why did you ask me to return?"
Upon re-entering the main hall, Wyatt Barnes immediately looked at Lanni Barnes and asked somewhat urgently.
At this moment, only the father and son duo remained in the main hall.
"Wyatt, there is news about Keer and my granddaughter."
Lanni Barnes said with a heavy expression.
"Keer?"
Hearing Lanni Barnes’ words, Wyatt Barnes’ pupils suddenly shrank, and his breathing became hurried at that moment, "Father, how is Keer now? And how is my daughter?"
Listening to his father, it seemed that Keer had given birth to a daughter for him.
However, that was not the point now... what he wanted to know most was how Keer and his daughter were doing!
"Keer and the child are temporarily safe."
Lanni Barnes said further.
"Temporarily safe?"
Wyatt Barnes frowned, "Father, what do you mean by that?"
Lanni Barnes sighed, "According to the information I asked someone to gather, both Keer and my granddaughter are currently imprisoned by the Enforcement Hall of the Fire Worship Sect... They’re just waiting for the Sect Leader to emerge, and then he will decide the fate of Keer and her daughter! From the current situation, it seems very difficult for them to survive."
"What?!"
Wyatt Barnes’s face changed dramatically.
Keer, and his daughter, were actually imprisoned by the people of the Enforcement Hall of the Fire Worship Sect?
"Dad, is the news accurate?"
Taking a deep breath, Wyatt Barnes slightly calmed his turbulent emotions and looked towards Lanni Barnes to ask.
"Absolutely accurate!"
Lanni Barnes replied with utmost certainty.
If this news was gathered by the caretaker, he still wouldn’t dare to believe it completely...
But the problem is, this news was told to him by that elusive Seer known as Heaven’s Mystery Elder!
A while ago, Heaven’s Mystery Elder had helped the Mansion of Azure Clouds divert the elder ’Cade Simpson’ of the Mysterious Buddha Sect, and a few days after shaking off Cade Simpson, he came to the Mansion of Azure Clouds and told him Cade Simpson had returned to the Upper Domain, and also told him about ’Keer and her daughter’.
"Dad, can you tell me who told you this?"
Wyatt Barnes asked.
"Wyatt, the person who told me is a renowned figure in both the Upper Domain and Lower Domain of the Martial Dao Sacred Land, known as ’Heaven’s Mystery Elder’!"
Lanni Barnes said.
"Heaven’s Mystery Elder?"
Wyatt Barnes was greatly surprised.
Because before this, he had heard of Heaven’s Mystery Elder’s existence, knowing that Heaven’s Mystery Elder was famous in Martial Dao Sacred Land for his expertise in divination and fortune-telling.
It is said that Heaven’s Mystery Elder has never spoken false words.
The people of the Martial Dao Sacred Land even gave him the title of ’Living Immortal’!
"Dad, you know Heaven’s Mystery Elder?"
Wyatt Barnes was full of astonishment; he didn’t expect his father to actually know that Heaven’s Mystery Elder.
To know, not only in the Lower Domain of Martial Dao Sacred Land, even in the Upper Domain, Heaven’s Mystery Elder is a renowned existence.
Even the leaders of Third-Rate Powers, as well as Second-Rate and First-Rate Powers in the Upper Domain, may not necessarily know Heaven’s Mystery Elder.
And his father, merely the leader of a quasi-Third-Rate Power in the Lower Domain, not only knows Heaven’s Mystery Elder but seems quite familiar, otherwise why would the other party help him gather information?
He heard that even the leaders of First-Rate Powers, and the leaders of the three great sects in the Upper Domain, might not necessarily be able to employ Heaven’s Mystery Elder.
"Through a chance encounter, I met him, and then met several times afterward, barely managing to become ’acquaintances’."
Lanni Barnes, although mentioned ’Heaven’s Mystery Elder,’ did not tell Wyatt Barnes that Heaven’s Mystery Elder visited multiple times because of him.
And this was also under the guidance of Heaven’s Mystery Elder before he left, temporarily, Wyatt Barnes should not be aware of his existence.
Wyatt Barnes realized this, and his face turned completely grim, "Since it’s that Heaven’s Mystery Elder saying this, things must be true... Dad, did he mention when the Sect Leader of the Fire Worship Sect might emerge?"
As he spoke, Wyatt Barnes asked eagerly.
"Not really."
Lanni Barnes shook his head, though he wished he knew this as well.
He had also asked Heaven’s Mystery Elder, but the other side said he didn’t know, and he had no choice.
"Dad, I’m planning to leave the Mansion of Azure Clouds today and head to the ’Upper Domain’!"
Taking a deep breath, Wyatt Barnes made a monumental decision and candidly told Lanni Barnes.
Originally, he intended to leave after some time.
But now, having learned about his wife and daughter’s predicament, he is anxious and eager to go to the Upper Domain of Martial Dao Sacred Land to rescue his wife and daughter.
He won’t allow anyone to harm his wife and daughter!
"Be careful."
To Wyatt Barnes’s abrupt major decision, Lanni Barnes was not surprised because if he were in his son’s shoes, he would make the same choice.
If it weren’t for his responsibilities as House Master, needing to protect a group of family and friends around him, he would also want to go to the Upper Domain with his son.
"Yes."
Wyatt Barnes nodded solemnly, then went to see his mother as quickly as possible, and told her that he was leaving the Mansion of Azure Clouds today to go to the Upper Domain of Martial Dao Sacred Land.
"Leaving for the Upper Domain today? Wyatt, is it that urgent?"
Christina Lee, while reluctant, was also surprised by Wyatt Barnes’s temporary decision, "Did something happen?"
"Mom, there’s news about Keer."
Wyatt Barnes said, appearing worried and bitter, "The two of them are currently imprisoned in the Enforcement Hall of the Fire Worship Sect, just waiting for the Sect Leader of the Fire Worship Sect to emerge and decide their fate... Mom! I must rescue Keer and her daughter before the Sect Leader emerges!"
"Keer? Daughter?"
Hearing Wyatt Barnes’s words, Christina Lee was also somewhat excited, aside from her grandson, she has another granddaughter?
However, recollecting herself, carefully thinking about Wyatt Barnes’s words, learning Keer and her daughter’s current situation, her expression couldn’t help but change.
