Chapter 1761: Chapter 1761: The Saint Martial Secret Realm Is About to Open!
"Yes, Master."
"Yes, Father!"
Lucas Wilson and Tommy Dunn watched Atlas Dunn leave, and then obediently stayed at Atlas Dunn’s residence, waiting for Atlas Dunn’s return.
The wait lasted for an entire afternoon.
However, neither of them dared to complain.
It wasn’t until the sun began to set, and evening arrived, that Atlas Dunn returned.
Upon returning, Atlas Dunn’s expression remained unchanged, showing neither joy nor anger, but his eyes were flickering with a strange glint.
"Father, you finally returned."
Seeing Atlas Dunn return, Tommy Dunn was excited, "Now, can you tell me how Senior Brother is going to help me deal with that Wyatt?"
"Put aside Wyatt’s matter for now."
But what awaited Tommy Dunn, full of excitement, was just this sentence.
After Atlas Dunn’s voice fell, he immediately looked at Lucas Wilson, disregarding Tommy Dunn’s instant change of complexion, "Lucas, there’s nothing more for now, you may leave."
"Yes, Master."
Although Lucas Wilson did not know what had happened to make his master dismiss the idea of dealing with Wyatt, he unconditionally obeyed his master’s words, so he immediately responded and retreated, returning to his residence in the Main Mansion.
As Lucas Wilson left, Tommy Dunn opened his mouth, but before he could make a sound, he was interrupted by Atlas Dunn’s stern gaze.
Tommy Dunn was not a fool, naturally he could see his father was contemplating something, so he obediently closed his mouth, but curiosity spilled from his eyes.
After finally watching Lucas Wilson’s figure disappear from view, Tommy Dunn could no longer hold back, he immediately looked at Atlas Dunn and urgently asked, "Father, what on earth is happening that you have to send away Senior Brother... and why should Wyatt’s matter be put aside? He humiliated me publicly! Humiliating me is equivalent to humiliating you, Father."
"Tommy, I know you hate Wyatt very much. In fact, how could Father not want him to disappear from this world!"
Atlas Dunn shook his head, and then asked, "Do you know why House Master was urgently seeking me?"
"Is it because of Wyatt?"
On hearing this, Tommy Dunn’s face changed dramatically, "Could it be that House Master opened his mouth to protect Wyatt, preventing you, Father, from intervening?"
"That’s not it."
Atlas Dunn shook his head, "This time House Master urgently called me over mainly because of matters concerning Sky-scraping Mansion. However, regarding this matter, Wyatt has achieved significant contributions, and if our Dunn Family makes things difficult for Wyatt now, House Master will certainly not be pleased."
"Before returning, I have already discussed with your grandfather, and for now, we will not move against Wyatt Barnes. Everything will be decided after the Sky-scraping Mansion matter concludes."
Atlas Dunn continued.
"Grandfather? He also knows?"
Tommy Dunn widened his eyes.
"Today, when House Master called me over, your grandfather was also called along, as well as several other Vice House Masters... of course, along with Winty Landon and Augustine Landon, the father and son pair."
Atlas Dunn said.
"Augustine was also there?"
Tommy Dunn frowned, "Although I don’t know what our Mysterious Void Mansion plans to do about Sky-scraping Mansion, since House Master gathered both Protectors and several Vice House Masters, it shouldn’t be a trivial matter... in such a setting, how does Augustine have the credentials to be present?"
"Because this issue was informed by Augustine to Winty, and then by Winty to the House Master."
Atlas Dunn said further.
"Father, after all this talk, I still don’t know what happened... what exactly makes you temporarily set aside plans against Wyatt."
Tommy Dunn asked curiously, unable to fathom what great contributions Wyatt could have made.
"The matter is like this..."
Although House Master of the Mysterious Void Mansion instructed Atlas Dunn and others to keep it confidential, Tommy Dunn was different from Lucas Wilson, as he was Atlas Dunn’s only son, so naturally he did not hide it.
Atlas Dunn told Tommy Dunn about the Sky-scraping Mansion’s Junior House Master ’Peace Adams’ cultivating a top-tier demonic technique.
"Soul Gathering technique? Resurrection? Top tier demonic technique?"
Upon hearing this, Tommy Dunn’s breathing unintentionally quickened.
If he could cultivate such a demonic technique, wouldn’t his power rise rapidly in a short time? Surpassing Wyatt would not be impossible!
After all, Sky-scraping Mansion’s Junior House Master ’Peace Adams’ managed to breakthrough from early Middle Saint Realm to peak Middle Saint Realm within a year because of acquiring the demonic technique, "If I can cultivate the demonic technique, given a year’s time, reaching Great Saint Realm would be absolutely achievable."
In this regard, Tommy Dunn was full of confidence.
Seeing the flickering look in his son’s eyes, Atlas Dunn immediately knew his intentions and promptly reminded him, "If Peace Adams is cultivating a relatively normal Devil Path technique, then you have a chance to learn it... But if what Peace Adams is cultivating is an inhumane Devil Path technique, the House Master will not permit anyone to practice it!"
Tommy Dunn nodded, but in his heart, he was somewhat unconvinced.
"As long as I can become stronger, I don’t care about inhumanity... As long as I can elevate my strength to a level where I can crush Wyatt, even if everyone else dies, so what?"
This was Tommy Dunn’s truest thought; he was willing to use any means, regardless of the consequences if it meant enhancing his cultivation.
"Father, what are you planning to do now?"
Tommy Dunn’s greed for the Devil Path technique Peace Adams practiced led him to constantly mention taking it from the Sky-scraping Mansion.
"The House Master hasn’t specified how to proceed yet. He will probably wait until after you all come out of the Sacred Martial Secret Realm... Only then can the House Master fully make his move."
Atlas Dunn said.
"The House Master himself will act?"
Tommy Dunn was greatly surprised, knowing that their House Master at the Mysterious Void Mansion hadn’t made a move in many years, yet this time he was preparing to.
"The opponent is the Sky-scraping Mansion. Without the House Master, even if we make the first move, we would undoubtedly suffer considerable losses... The House Master of the Sky-scraping Mansion is not weaker than your grandfather. Within our Mysterious Void Mansion, only the House Master can fully suppress him."
Atlas Dunn continued.
The foundation and strength of a fourth-rate power shouldn’t be underestimated.
Moreover, although the Sky-scraping Mansion is now just a fourth-rate power, tracing back years ago, it used to be a ’quasi-third-rate power.’
This kind of fourth-rate power is a few levels stronger than ordinary fourth-rate powers.
"Tommy, I know you hate Wyatt, but now is not the right time to deal with him... If you want to deal with him, you should wait until after the Sky-scraping Mansion affair is over."
Atlas Dunn looked at Tommy Dunn and advised.
"Father, if we wait till then, the House Master might have already taken Wyatt as a personal disciple, even a closed disciple... Didn’t you say before that the House Master was likely to take Wyatt as a personal disciple, even a closed disciple, after we come out from the Sacred Martial Secret Realm?"
Upon hearing this, Tommy Dunn became anxious.
"Tommy, I understand your feelings... However, the first thing the House Master will do after you all return from the Sacred Martial Secret Realm is not to take Wyatt as a personal disciple or closed disciple, but to go to the Sky-scraping Mansion to seize the Devil Path technique mastered by the Junior House Master, Peace Adams."
Atlas Dunn comforted.
Tommy Dunn nodded, feeling slightly relieved.
"Besides, even if Wyatt truly becomes a personal or closed disciple of the House Master, will the House Master always protect him by his side? As long as Wyatt dares to venture out alone, our Dunn Family can take his life as easily as killing a chicken or pulling out weeds."
As Atlas Dunn’s tone turned, it brimmed with confidence.
"With father saying this, I’m relieved."
Tommy Dunn sighed with relief.
"Alright, Tommy, what you should be thinking about now is not your grudge with Wyatt, but preparing well. Ten days from now is the day you enter the Sacred Martial Secret Realm... I hope you can comprehend the advanced Divine Ability remnants. If you later step into the Human Saint Realm and master that Divine Ability, you will have the opportunity to become the next generation House Master of our Mysterious Void Mansion!"
Atlas Dunn looked at Tommy Dunn with anticipation, "Our Dunn Family has never produced such a person... So, I hope you can be the first in our Dunn Family line to break through to the Human Saint Realm and master the Divine Ability recorded in the advanced Divine Ability remnants of the Sacred Martial Secret Realm."
"Father, I will try my best. I will not let you down."
Tommy Dunn vowed earnestly.
"This time, aside from you, there are four others from our Dunn Family line who have also received the opportunity to enter the Sacred Martial Secret Realm... However, the strongest among them is only in the early stages of the Middle Saint Realm. If you have extra energy, help them appropriately. If not, just take care of yourself."
Atlas Dunn said seriously, not wanting his son to miss the advanced Divine Ability remnants in the Sacred Martial Secret Realm because of others.
"Got it, father."
In fact, Atlas Dunn didn’t need to remind him, as Tommy Dunn was inherently a selfish and unscrupulous person willing to do anything to achieve his goals.
Wyatt Barnes naturally didn’t know that while cultivating and waiting for the opening day of the Sacred Martial Secret Realm, he narrowly escaped a disaster because of the Devil Path technique Peace Adams practiced from the Sky-scraping Mansion Junior House Master.
Of course, even if the personal favorite disciple ’Lucas Wilson’ under Atlas Dunn’s tutelage were to make a move, it might not trouble Wyatt Barnes much, as Wyatt had the ’Splendid Fairy Sword.’
However, he dared not easily use the Splendid Fairy Sword in front of others.
The temptation of the Splendid Fairy Sword was not much less than that of the Demon Sealing Monument. Unless it was a life-and-death situation, he wouldn’t risk exposing the Splendid Fairy Sword in front of others.
Without the Splendid Fairy Sword, he would surely not be a match for Lucas Wilson!
Though Lucas Wilson might not dare to kill him directly, due to fearing the rules of the Mysterious Void Mansion, he could certainly inflict heavy injuries.
And once heavily injured, Wyatt’s strength would significantly diminish, potentially impacting his performance and even his ’rewards’ in the Sacred Martial Secret Realm.
