Chapter 1755: Chapter 1755: Mystic Void List’s Number One, Augustine Landon!
Yes.
If Wyatt Barnes yields today and kneels to apologize to Tommy Dunn in public, then afterwards, this matter will undoubtedly spread throughout the Mysterious Void House.
In such a scenario, no matter how high Wyatt’s talent is, no one would look up to him.
Even if the House Master initially intended to take him as a disciple, after this incident, he would likely change his original idea.
For a moment, Julian Buckingham and Black Dunn felt at ease.
Ignore Matthew King’s words!
Seeing the fierce glow returning in Julian Buckingham and Black Dunn’s eyes, Matthew King’s face changed drastically, realizing they were not deterred by his hint, he quickly transmitted, "Julian, Black Dunn, I know you want to protect Tommy... but are you really going to take this risk?"
"Matthew, stop trying to scare us!"
Julian mocked through transmission, "Today, as long as Wyatt kneels to apologize to junior brother, once this spreads, do you think the House Master will still value him?"
Matthew didn’t expect Julian to think this way, and his face changed again, "You think Brother Wyatt will kneel to apologize to Tommy Dunn? Dream on!"
"Whether it’s a dream, you will find out soon enough."
Julian sneered, "Matthew, I advise you not to get involved in these muddy waters! You should know the consequences of offending our Dunn Family line. By then, even if your master is Lay Sinclair, the Vice Hall Master, he might not be able to protect you."
A threat!
A blatant threat!
Faced with Julian’s threat, Matthew King’s face turned pale, for he knew what Julian said was true.
Due to the presence of the elder Protector and Vice House Master from the Dunn Family, their line practically dominated the Mysterious Void House, and anyone from the Mysterious Void House who dared to offend their line usually didn’t end well.
"Matthew, think carefully... Are you really going to oppose our Dunn Family for the sake of a new disciple who just entered Mysterious Void House?"
Black Dunn looked at Matthew, sneering.
"Brother Matthew, this matter doesn’t concern you; you don’t have to make enemies with others because of me."
Wyatt Barnes looked at Matthew beside him and said with a smile, "Regardless, thank you, Brother Matthew, for standing by my side at this time... However, in the matters to come, please stand aside and watch; I will resolve it myself."
As he continued, Wyatt gave Matthew a confident look.
However, facing Wyatt’s confidence, Matthew thought Wyatt was just trying to reassure him by pretending to be confident.
"Brother Wyatt, do you think I, Matthew King, am someone who would abandon a friend and flee in the face of danger?"
Matthew said disgruntledly, clearly expressing his intent to stand with Wyatt.
"And me!"
Ebba King spoke up, wanting to step forward, but Wyatt waved her back.
"What are you doing, causing trouble!"
Wyatt turned to glance at Ebba, showing a bit of displeasure. Seeing her stubbornly trying to step forward again, Wyatt could only transmit to her reluctantly, "Don’t worry... They’re just two early Great Saint Realm martial artists; I can handle it."
Hearing Wyatt’s words, Ebba was stunned, as if struck by lightning.
They’re just two early Great Saint Realm martial artists?
If another peak Middle Saint Realm martial artist said that, Ebba’s first thought would be ’what arrogance’!
But coming from Wyatt, she felt differently.
She hadn’t known him long, but in this short period, she came to understand Wyatt better. She knew that if Wyatt wasn’t confident, he wouldn’t say such things in this situation.
"A peak Middle Saint Realm martial artist can handle early Great Saint Realm martial artists..."
Still, Ebba found it incredible because she thought it was something almost impossible.
Yet, Wyatt’s confident gaze made her believe him somewhat.
Seeing Ebba no longer insisting on stepping forward, Wyatt turned back around, immediately looking at Matthew, and smiled, "Brother Matthew, I know you mean well... But as for these two bottom-tier figures on the Mystic Void List, I don’t care to give them any thought!"
Bottom-tier figures on the Mystic Void List!
Wyatt’s words fell, and the crowd went silent.
If a disciple of the Mysterious Void House who ranked high on the Mystic Void List said that, no one present would find it odd.
But the issue was, these words came from a disciple not yet on the Mystic Void List, which gave them a completely different feeling.
"What arrogance!"
Tommy Dunn was the first to react, sneering, "You, a new disciple not yet on the Mystic Void List, dare to look down on the powerhouses of the Mystic Void List, truly arrogant!"
"Senior Brother White Buckingham, Senior Brother Black Dunn, since he doesn’t regard you, you should first teach him a good lesson, then make him kneel and apologize to me!"
Tommy looked at Julian Buckingham and Black Dunn, speaking viciously.
"Rest assured, junior brother. After he has suffered, I will make him obediently kneel and apologize to you."
Black Dunn licked his dry lips, revealing a sinister smile, his sharp gaze fixed on Wyatt, "Kid, I really don’t know where your confidence comes from! Do you really think that just because you broke through to the peak of the Middle Saint Realm and defeated the Cox brothers together, you can now compare to the Great Saint Realm?"
On the way here, Black Dunn learned about the previous events from Tommy Dunn’s entourage.
Black Dunn is also a disciple of the Heavenly Palace, so he has heard of the Cox brothers.
Swoosh!
As soon as the words fell, Black Dunn moved swiftly, shooting towards a spot not far from Wyatt Barnes, and positioning himself close to Wyatt in a standoff.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Just then, two rapid gusts of wind sounded.
One of the gusts was stirred by Matthew King’s moving figure, as he shot straight towards Wyatt Barnes, intending to help Wyatt deal with Black Dunn.
Although Wyatt was very confident, he only thought Wyatt was comforting him. He didn’t believe that a peak Middle Saint Realm martial artist could compete with an early Great Saint Realm martial artist, because the two aren’t on the same level at all; the latter could easily crush the former.
However, Matthew King’s speed was fast, but someone else’s speed was even faster.
When Matthew King saw someone had appeared in front of Wyatt before him, he stopped abruptly and looked towards the person standing before Wyatt, his face showing surprise, "How could it be him... Does Junior Brother Wyatt know him?"
The one who appeared in front of Wyatt first was a tall and robust young man. His features were regular, not particularly handsome, but gave off a resolute impression.
With just one look, it’s clear that he’s a tough guy!
"Senior Brother Augustine?"
Upon seeing the robust young man in front of Wyatt, Black Dunn’s face changed, showing some fear in his eyes, "You... do you know this Wyatt?"
"Augustine?"
Originally, the appearance of a stranger before him, seemingly aiding him, left Wyatt very puzzled, because he didn’t know this person and could certainly say he had never met him.
Now, hearing Black Dunn’s words, he finally knew that the towering young man in front of him was named ’Augustine’.
"Senior Brother Augustine!"
Looking at the robust young man who appeared before Wyatt and shielded him, even Ray Dunn’s face turned solemn.
"Senior Brother Augustine!"
"Senior Brother Augustine!"
...
At the same time, all the disciples of the Mysterious Void House present, including Matthew King, respectfully bowed to Augustine.
The group of Void House disciples was more respectful towards Augustine than towards Lay Sinclair, the Vice Hall Master of the Heavenly Palace.
Seeing this, Wyatt was stunned. He hadn’t expected this robust young man, who appeared in front of him seemingly to protect him, held such high status in the eyes of the Void House disciples.
He could see that the group of Void House disciples expressed genuine respect towards Augustine.
"Damn it! How does he know Augustine?!"
Seeing this, Tommy Dunn’s face turned somewhat unpleasant.
Although Tommy Dunn was known as the ’number one of the second generation’ in the Mysterious Void House, it was a title given by others due to his background, since his grandfather was one of the two Protectors of the Void House, and his father was the Vice House Master.
However, among his peers in the Void House, there was one person he was rather daunted by.
This person was ’Augustine’!
Augustine, the son of another senior Protector of the Void House, born late in life, was deeply cherished by the Protector who doted on his only child, providing whatever he could unconditionally.
Augustine did not disappoint him, becoming the greatest talent of the Void House in hundreds of years!
Of course, that was before Wyatt Barnes arrived.
When Wyatt appeared, the talent he exhibited surpassed Augustine, seizing the halo of ’Void House’s greatest talent in hundreds of years’ from Augustine as soon as he arrived.
At a genuine age of just over fifty, Augustine was in his prime, yet his cultivation already reached the peak of the ’Great Saint Realm’!
Additionally, on the Mystic Void List, Augustine was indisputably the number one!
In the Void House, disciples who break through the ’Great Saint Realm’ and enter the ’Human Saint Realm’ are removed from the Mystic Void List to become elders.
Augustine being the number one on the Mystic Void List clearly indicates his power in the Void House as ’invincible below the Human Saint Realm’!
"When did Senior Brother Augustine arrive?"
"I didn’t notice."
"Judging by Senior Brother Augustine’s demeanor, he seems intent on standing up for Wyatt."
"It turns out Wyatt knows Senior Brother Augustine, no wonder he was so composed earlier; this must be his ’trump card’."
...
The surrounding disciples of the Mysterious Void House whispered, believing that Wyatt’s composure from start to finish was because he already knew Augustine would appear to assist him.
Hearing the surrounding whispers, Wyatt naturally felt quite speechless.
Prior to today, he not only was unfamiliar with Augustine, but he hadn’t even heard anyone mention Augustine.
