Chapter 1569: Chapter 1569 Ridge South Anderson Manor
"Lord Crawford, we don’t have any evidence."
Beau Swayer said with a bitter smile.
"Isn’t there this gentleman?"
Jordan Swayer looked at Wyatt Barnes, clearly full of confidence in him.
Of course, this was because Wyatt had just used several thods to make Beau recover considerably, even when the four-star Saint Refiner in the palace was at a loss. This young man could handle it.
"According to what the gentleman just said, a ’magic pattern’ is clearly an extrely obscure existence, and the traces it leaves are negligible... The gentleman can discover and even recognize the magic pattern, showing his erudition. Others, however, might not believe what the gentleman says."
Beau Swayer expressed his concerns.
"As long as the gentleman cures you, won’t they believe it?"
Jordan Swayer seed to dismiss the concern.
"Even if the gentleman cures , they can still deny the existence of a magic pattern... After all, before the gentleman ntioned it, even you and I didn’t know about the existence of magic patterns in the world. By then, Myles Swayer could completely counter by saying that I deliberately frad him."
Beau sighed.
"Young Master Swayer is right, this matter cannot be rushed... Even if we want to expose Myles Swayer, we have to plan slowly."
Wyatt Barnes rarely chid in.
Although he didn’t know who Myles Swayer was, seeing Beau and Jordan’s attitude earlier, they clearly believed the ’magic pattern’ afflicting Beau was related to him.
"The gentleman speaks the truth."
Beau nodded in agreent, then gingerly stepped off the bed, bowed to Wyatt in gratitude, "Thank you, gentleman, for extending a helping hand. Otherwise, I, Beau Swayer, might not last until next month."
Although the young man in the purple robe hadn’t completely cured him yet, under his miraculous treatnt, Beau’s condition had improved greatly.
"Young Master Swayer is too kind."
Wyatt smiled faintly.
"May I inquire what the gentleman’s esteed na is?"
Beau Swayer asked politely.
"Wyatt Barnes."
Under the gaze of Beau and Jordan, Wyatt smiled and replied.
So far, Wyatt had a good impression of this eldest Swayer son.
Having lived two lives, Wyatt had developed a knack for reading people and could tell Beau Swayer was a straightforward person, unmatched by typical aristocratic offspring.
"So, it’s Mr. Barnes."
Though still not fully recovered, Beau, after standing for a while, gradually grew pale again.
"Beau, you should rest."
Noticing this, Jordan quickly said.
"Alright."
Beau acknowledged, greeted Wyatt again with an apologetic smile, then lay back on the bed.
anwhile, Wyatt and Jordan left the room and returned to the courtyard.
"Mr. Barnes, please forgive my previous lack of manners."
Once outside, Jordan apologized to Wyatt. As for the ’lack of manners’ he ntioned, it was nothing more than having Steward Ellis test Wyatt’s capabilities earlier.
"Elder Crawford was only concerned for Young Master Swayer; I understand."
Wyatt said.
Hearing Wyatt say this, Jordan’s face lit up with a smile. He then asked sowhat hesitantly, "Mr. Barnes, are you a power listed on the ’Heavenly List’?"
"A power on the ’Heavenly List’?"
Seeing Jordan’s fixed stare, Wyatt was baffled, "What’s that?"
He had heard of the ’Earth List’.
What was the ’Heavenly List’?
"Mr. Barnes, you... you’ve never heard of the ’Heavenly List’?"
Seeing Wyatt wasn’t pretending, Jordan’s eyes widened, his face slightly stunned.
"It’s the first ti I’ve heard of it."
Wyatt said, "I’ve heard of the ’Earth List’, which is a ranking for the peak powerhouses in the Transcending Mortal Realm."
"The ’Earth List’ isn’t on the sa level as the ’Heavenly List’... In the Martial Dao Sacred Land itself, the ’Earth List’ is nurous, but the ’Heavenly List’ only numbers in the dozens."
Jordan shook his head.
"Please elaborate."
After Jordan’s explanation, Wyatt beca curious about this ’Heavenly List’.
Following Jordan’s introduction, Wyatt also understood what the ’Heavenly List’ was. It was a ranking established by fifth-tier powers, a list dominated by pinnacle Saint Realm experts within a region controlled by a fifth-tier power.
The Fletcher Kingdom, although a sixth-tier Saint Kingdom, was also dependent on a fifth-tier power called ’Anderson Manor’ of Ridge South.
Within Anderson Manor’s domain, there were a total of eleven sixth-tier powers, among which Fletcher Kingdom was just one.
Thus, becoming a pinnacle Saint Realm expert listed on the ’Heavenly List’ ant one was among the top Saint Realm experts within Ridge South Anderson Manor’s territory.
The "Heavenly List" gathers a hundred people, and those from Fletcher Kingdom who make the list are few and far between.
"Unexpectedly, Mr. Barnes, you don’t yet know of the ’Heavenly List’... May I ask, from where do you hail, Mr. Barnes?"
Jordan Swayer asked curiously.
"I ca over from the Nine Sect Alliance region."
Wyatt Barnes replied truthfully, as he planned to ask the Swayer Family to help find Trevor Baillie’s whereabouts later, so there was no need to hide it.
"Nine Sect Alliance region?"
Jordan Swayer seed to realize, "I’ve heard of that place. It’s an edge region behind the southern desert... I never thought soone as outstanding as you, Mr. Barnes, would co from there."
Jordan Swayer sighed.
"Elder Crawford, earlier when you and Young Master Swayer ntioned ’Myles Swayer,’ I wonder who he is and what conflict exists between him and Young Master Swayer?"
Wyatt Barnes was quite curious about this.
It’s known that Beau Swayer is the eldest young master of the Swayer Family and the successor of the next family patriarch.
Such a person has soone conspiring against him.
Moreover, judging by the na, he is clearly also part of the Swayer Family.
"Myles Swayer is also a direct descendent of our Swayer Family, known as the ’Second Young Master’... However, he and Beau have no direct blood relation. Speaking of blood relation, it would trace back dozens of generations ago."
Jordan Swayer slowly explained.
Wyatt Barnes could understand Jordan Swayer’s words, which simply ant that Beau Swayer and Myles Swayer are both direct descendants but not from the sa line.
"The legacy of our Swayer Family does not pass down a single lineage; rather, we select the most outstanding direct descendants to cultivate as the next family head... The current family patriarch is Beau’s father. Beau has been promising and has been designated as the heir to the next family patriarch."
Jordan Swayer continued, "However, in Beau’s generation, there is another extrely outstanding individual... If Beau were not present, he would definitely replace Beau and be designated as the heir to the next family patriarch."
"That person is Myles Swayer?"
Upon hearing Jordan Swayer say this, Wyatt Barnes understood and also guessed Myles Swayer’s motive for wanting to kill Beau Swayer. It was nothing but wanting to replace Beau Swayer as the heir to the next family patriarch of the Swayer Family.
After all, as long as Beau Swayer is alive, he has no chance.
"Exactly!"
Jordan Swayer’s eyes flashed with cold light as he spoke solemnly, "I never thought he would be ruthless to this extent... He is challenging the laws of our Swayer Family!"
The first clause of the Swayer Family’s laws is to strictly prohibit the family mbers from harming each other.
"Magic marks, ordinary people really can’t detect them."
Wyatt Barnes shook his head.
"Mr. Barnes, please stay here with Beau... I must inform the patriarch of this matter, so I won’t disturb you further."
Jordan Swayer said to Wyatt Barnes, then ordered the maids within the manor to take good care of Wyatt Barnes before leaving.
"Mr. Barnes, please follow ."
As the eldest young master of the Swayer Family, the manor where Beau Swayer resides naturally has quite a few maids. Upon hearing Elder Crawford’s orders, a maid promptly led Wyatt Barnes to a vacant room.
The room was tidy, although it was unoccupied, it was very clean and soone clearly cleaned it regularly.
"Mr. Barnes, if you have any needs, don’t hesitate to ask. I am stationed outside the door."
The maid spoke to Wyatt Barnes, frequently casting coquettish glances his way. Although she didn’t know whether this purple-clothed youth could cure the young master, Elder Crawford’s attitude towards him already made it worthwhile to curry favor.
If she could catch the eye of soone like him, it would undoubtedly be a heaven-sent opportunity for her.
Yet, although the maid was quite pretty, compared to Wyatt Barnes’s two fiancées, she was not rely slightly lacking, so Wyatt Barnes directly ignored her.
"I wonder where my senior brother and Uncle Roro are now... I hope they’ve truly co to Fletcher Kingdom."
Wyatt Barnes muttered to himself.
"Later, I’ll ask the Swayer Family’s patriarch if he knows of a Fifth-flow clan where most people have the surna ’Hanson.’"
This was the only clue Wyatt Barnes had regarding Julia’s origins.
The force behind Julia was clearly a large clan, even the ancient ’Hanson Tribe’ of the Cloud Skies Continent was founded by a common descendent who erged from it thousands of years ago.
The reason for suspecting Julia’s backing is a Fifth-flow force is naturally due to the Holy Stones Julia had given him initially.
Ninety percent of those Holy Stones were of the fifth grade, with the rest being fourth grade.
This corresponds to the standard extraction from a fifth-grade Holy Stone mine, which usually falls under the control of a Fifth-flow entity.
Wyatt Barnes sat silently on the bed and did not rush to enter the Jewel Tower for cultivation.
Just because he knew even if he went in to cultivate, he wouldn’t be able to practice for long.
Just as Wyatt Barnes thought, he had only sat quietly for a short ti when the maid’s voice ca from outside, "Mr. Barnes, the patriarch has arrived, please co out."
The ’patriarch’ the maid referred to was undoubtedly the head of the Swayer Family.
Wyatt Barnes had not rushed into the Jewel Tower to cultivate, as he was waiting for the Swayer Family’s patriarch to pay him a visit. As the biological father of Beau Swayer, the eldest young master, upon learning soone could cure the strange illness afflicting his son, the patriarch would surely co to verify without delay.
Such are the hearts of parents worldwide!
All parents cherish their children dearly.
Walking out of the room, Wyatt Barnes saw Jordan Swayer again, and beside Jordan Swayer was another person, a dium-built middle-aged man in a blue robe, face like jade, with sharp brows like swords, exuding an unyielding aura of authority.
Clearly, this was Micah Swayer, the head of the Swayer Family.
