Legend of Wyatt

Chapter 2730: Chapter 2730: Visit from the Thirteenth Prince

Just now, when Wyatt Barnes bid ten thousand supreme-grade immortal stones, someone in the auction hall bid fifteen thousand supreme-grade immortal stones.

When Wyatt Barnes bid twenty thousand supreme-grade immortal stones, another person in the auction hall bid twenty-five thousand supreme-grade immortal stones.

Now, seeing the Earth Number One private room fall completely silent, the two who had bid against Wyatt Barnes looked greatly changed, their faces showing regret while their hearts were filled with unease:

Deeply fearing that after the auction ends, the person from the Earth Number One private room would cause them trouble.

After all, it seems at the moment:

The person from the Earth Number One private room is obviously not a common person.

Are you kidding!

If it were a common person, could they silence all the people in the Earth Number private rooms?

At the same time, the group in the Human Number private rooms, originally ready to bid and continue competing with Wyatt Barnes, all prudently closed their mouths, not daring to act rashly.

The people in the Human Number private rooms, though their backgrounds were somewhat stronger than those in the auction hall, were still not strong enough to compare with those in the Earth Number private rooms...

Anyone with some status would at least be arranged to sit in the Earth Number private rooms.

So, the people in the Human Number private rooms, seeing that no one in the Earth Number private rooms made a sound, dared not make a sound either.

"The Profound Rank Cultivation Method ’Xuanming Fusion Technique’, now bid at thirty thousand supreme-grade immortal stones by the guest in the Earth Number One private room... Any more bids?"

On the auction stage, the enchanting voice of the beautiful woman spread throughout the auction hall:

"Thirty thousand supreme-grade immortal stones for the first time..."

"Thirty thousand supreme-grade immortal stones for the second time..."

Just as the beautiful woman was announcing the count for the second time, with only one more count needed for the Profound Rank Cultivation Method ’Xuanming Fusion Technique’ to belong to Wyatt Barnes.

"It seems there’s someone in the Heaven Number One private room!"

"The window is open there, there must be someone... We wonder which prince or duke from our Ascendant Dragon Celestial Nation is present."

"It’s rare for dukes from our Ascendant Dragon Celestial Nation to come to the Campbell Family auction house... I think it must be one of the princes."

"For a small auction at the Campbell Family auction house, probably only some ordinary princes would come... However, even an ordinary prince might not fear the person in the Earth Number One private room."

"I wonder... whether the person in the Heaven Number One private room will participate in bidding for this Profound Rank Cultivation Method."

...

Following the opening remarks of some sharp-eyed individuals in the auction hall, most of the people in the auction hall raised their heads, their eyes collectively focusing on the open window of the Heaven Number One private room.

"Heaven Number One private room?"

"In a small auction held by the Campbell Family, are there actually members of the Imperial Family present?"

Inside the Earth Number One private room, Wyatt Barnes was somewhat surprised.

However, he wasn’t worried about that person competing with him, because even if the other party bid, he would follow up with a bid, until he secured the Profound Rank Cultivation Method ’Xuanming Fusion Technique.’

Of course, he would bid up to ten thousand supreme-grade immortal stones at most.

Any more, and it wouldn’t be worth it.

"But... it was truly unexpected that because I killed a guest from the Flowing Years Inn on the way here and remained unscathed, none of those guests dared to bid against me."

That was something Wyatt Barnes had not anticipated either.

Listening to the chatter in the auction hall, he was also somewhat curious whether the person in the Heaven Number One private room would bid and compete with him.

However, some time passed, and even though the beautiful woman on the auction stage intentionally delayed, the person in the Heaven Number One private room still did not make a sound.

"Thirty thousand supreme-grade immortal stones for the third time!"

The beautiful woman, seeing that considerable time had already been delayed, dared not delay any longer, and announced the ownership of the current bidding’s Profound Rank Cultivation Method, "Congratulations to the guest in the Earth Number One private room, for securing the Profound Rank Cultivation Method ’Xuanming Fusion Technique’ at thirty thousand supreme-grade immortal stones."

Thirty thousand supreme-grade immortal stones to secure a Profound Rank Cultivation Method.

It must be said, Wyatt Barnes really profited this time.

"Didn’t place a bid?"

Many people in the auction hall were a bit surprised and puzzled.

"Isn’t it quite normal? The guest in the Heaven Number One private room, being a member of the Imperial Family, doesn’t lack Profound Rank Cultivation Methods... As for buying this Profound Rank Cultivation Method to sell on the black market for a profit, an Imperial Family member wouldn’t bother to do such a thing."

"Makes sense."

"I wonder... which prince is it in the Heaven Number One private room."

...

As the attention of the group in the auction hall shifted to the Heaven Number One private room.

Inside the Heaven Number One private room, the Thirteenth Prince, Crue Dragonsmith, sat there with a few hints of surprise on his face.

"He... is actually interested in a Profound Rank Cultivation Method?"

"A disciple from a powerful sect beyond the Desolate Territory... interested in a Profound Rank Cultivation Method? That can’t be, right?"

"Could it be... he’s not actually a disciple from a powerful sect beyond the Desolate Territory?"

Crue Dragonsmith, tapping on the jade table in front of him, was wondering in his mind.

He came to the Nian Family auction house this time not for the small auction held here, as generally, there wouldn’t be anything of interest to him at such events.

He was here for Wyatt Barnes.

Although the Nian Family has close ties with the Seventh Prince, the manager of the inn under the Nian Family is one of his people.

On that day, the matter between the Fourth Prince and Wyatt Barnes was known to him even before the Seventh Prince knew about it.

It was because of this that he found Wyatt Barnes quite interesting, which is why he appeared here.

The auction continued.

The items auctioned later did not pique Wyatt Barnes’ interest.

He had already achieved his purpose for coming today.

As time passed, the auction was nearing its end, and Wyatt Barnes was ready to leave the Nian Family auction house along with the group of guests who came from the inn, returning to the inn.

"Guest."

Suddenly, a voice came from outside Box Number One.

"Young Master Barnes, it’s ’Elder Yu’, the person in charge of our Nian Family auction house."

When Wyatt Barnes heard the voice and looked towards the door of the box, the maid beside him had already informed him of the identity of the visitor outside.

"The person in charge of the Nian Family auction house?"

Wyatt Barnes raised his eyebrows, curious as to why the other party was looking for him.

"Go open the door."

Driven by curiosity, Wyatt Barnes said to the maid.

Upon receiving the order, the maid immediately went to open the door and respectfully saluted the elder standing outside, "Elder Yu."

When Wyatt Barnes looked at the elder, the elder had already entered and slightly bowed to Wyatt Barnes, "Guest, I am the person in charge of the Nian Family auction house... the Thirteenth Prince wishes to meet you, what do you think?"

"Thirteenth Prince?"

A gleam flashed in Wyatt Barnes’s eyes.

He had some understanding of the Thirteenth Prince of the Ascendant Dragon Celestial Nation, knowing that he was no less competent than the Fourth Prince and Seventh Prince in the Imperial Family, and in certain aspects, he surpassed both.

If it weren’t for the Emperor of the Ascendant Dragon Celestial Nation not favoring him, he would have been fully capable of competing with the Fourth and Seventh Princes for the next throne of the nation.

"It seems... the one inside Box Number One is the Thirteenth Prince."

At the same time, Wyatt Barnes also guessed this.

"Hmm."

Wyatt Barnes nodded to the elder.

After receiving permission, the elder promptly exited the box, standing aside and respectfully gestured to the handsome young man standing by, "Thirteenth Prince, please enter."

Simultaneously, Wyatt Barnes saw the Thirteenth Prince of the Ascendant Dragon Celestial Nation, a familiar figure he’d long admired for his renown, "As the rumors say... the Thirteenth Prince is indeed exceedingly handsome, with a blend of strength and elegance."

After a moment, Wyatt Barnes’s gaze shifted to the middle-aged man standing behind the Thirteenth Prince.

The middle-aged man had a common appearance, yet standing behind the Thirteenth Prince, he exuded an aura of steadfastness.

Moreover, there was an unusual aura faintly emanating from him; although not obvious, Wyatt Barnes could still detect it.

And the reason he could detect it was because:

He had subconsciously encountered this aura before and remembered it quite clearly.

"This aura... is exactly like that of Milana Harrington."

This aura, Wyatt Barnes had come across in Milana Harrington, a disciple of the Merciful Voyage Immortal Sect who had once been his wife in reality, and he could determine that this was not an ordinary aura; it was one emitted when one’s cultivation reached a certain level, unable to be restrained.

"My name is ’Crue Dragonsmith’, the Thirteenth Prince of the Ascendant Dragon Celestial Nation... how should I address you, brother?"

After entering, the Thirteenth Prince ’Crue Dragonsmith’ greeted Wyatt Barnes with a smile.

"My surname is Barnes."

Wyatt Barnes nodded to Crue Dragonsmith, then gestured towards the chair in front of the table, "Thirteenth Prince, please sit."

Upon hearing Wyatt Barnes’s words, Crue Dragonsmith didn’t stand on ceremony, directly sitting down while casting a glance at the person in charge of the Nian Family auction house, lightly saying, "Take your people away; I have some private matters to discuss with Brother Barnes."

"Yes, Thirteenth Prince."

The person in charge of the Nian Family auction house responded respectfully, taking the maid and leaving the box.

"Brother Barnes, I heard about you a few days ago... being able to make the Fourth Miss of the Campbell Family suffer such a significant loss, you’re the first in our Capital City of the Ascendant Dragon Celestial Nation."

When Crue Dragonsmith looked at Wyatt Barnes again, it was as if he was speaking to an old acquaintance, his tone very familiar.

"It seems, the Thirteenth Prince has someone in the inn."

Wyatt Barnes looked deeply at Crue Dragonsmith and said meaningfully.

Although the incident between him and the Campbell Family’s Fourth Miss ’Jenny Campbell’ was no longer a secret in the Capital City of the Ascendant Dragon Celestial Nation, few knew he was at the inn, and even fewer could recognize him.

Not to mention others, even the group of inn guests who came with him to the Nian Family auction house.

Among them, surely many knew about the incident with Jenny Campbell, yet none recognized him...
