Chapter 1956: Chapter 1956: Accusation!
Even Maximus Lee, the first Elder Silver Fla of the Black Tortoise Altar, dared not underestimate the severe punishnt imposed by the Enforcent Hall.
Therefore, at that ti, he chose to leave the Holy Land Enforcent Hall, intending to search for evidence himself, proving Wyatt Barnes’ innate root was indeed just a ’yellow root’.
During the search for evidence, he focused on investigating the relationship between Wyatt Barnes and Abraham Clifford.
Abraham Clifford, as a Law Enforcent Elder, was famous for his ’impartiality’ at the Black Tortoise Altar; otherwise, he would not have been appointed by the Holy Land Enforcent Hall as the Law Enforcent Elder of the Black Tortoise Altar.
If it weren’t for Maximus Lee having seen Wyatt Barnes’ innate root tested directly, he would never doubt Abraham Clifford’s ’verdict’!
Just because Maximus Lee had seen Wyatt Barnes’ innate root tested as a ’yellow root’, he felt that the dossier Abraham Clifford submitted to the Holy Land Enforcent Hall was suspect of faking.
In his heart, he had long preconceived the idea that Wyatt Barnes was just a ’yellow root’ diocre!
For soone as impartial as Abraham Clifford to fabricate for Wyatt Barnes, there was only one reason:
His relationship with Wyatt Barnes was not simple!
Therefore, in nearly two months, Maximus Lee also began exploring Wyatt Barnes’ relationships from various aspects but ultimately got nowhere.
"thods to conceal innate roots? It’s said such thods shouldn’t exist at all... Even if such thods did exist, generally only those above the Saint Immortal Realm could execute them!"
"After all, only those above the Saint Immortal Realm can sense their innate roots. Those below the Saint Immortal Realm cannot even sense their own innate roots, let alone employ concealnt thods!"
Mumbling to himself, Maximus Lee beca increasingly convinced that it was due to Abraham Clifford’s forgery that allowed Wyatt Barnes to escape this calamity.
Even though he didn’t know why Abraham Clifford would fake the evidence for Wyatt Barnes!
"Master!"
Suddenly, a voice was heard outside, startling Maximus Lee awake.
"Co in."
With Maximus Lee’s command, a figure slipped into the spacious mansion where Maximus Lee resided, arriving in the courtyard where Maximus stood.
The newcor was a dium-built middle-aged man, slightly ferocious in features, with disheveled hair hanging over his shoulders, and his eyes constantly flashing a chilling gleam.
Standing there, he resembled a fierce wolf, giving off a spine-chilling sensation.
This middle-aged man wore a long white robe, embroidered with copper flas, yet the flas didn’t form any pattern.
This showed that he was a Copper Fla Elder of the ’Holy Land’!
The exclusive attire of Holy Land elders and disciples only has flas embroidered on them.
Only the exclusive clothing of elders and disciples of the Four Symbols Altar has flas embroidered into patterns.
"Greetings, Master!"
Once inside, the middle-aged man respectfully saluted Maximus Lee.
"Alas."
Looking at the middle-aged man, Maximus Lee sighed, "Jackson Wilson, it is I who have wronged you... Not only have I failed to avenge your direct disciple but also have not brought the murderer to justice!"
From Maximus Lee’s words, this middle-aged man was none other than Jackson Wilson, the ntor of Kenny Anderson, the Vermilion Bird Altar disciple murdered by Wyatt Barnes two months ago!
"Master, Kenny Anderson died a noble death for you!"
Jackson Wilson, however, shook his head.
Just after speaking, his eyes flashed coldly, "But who would have thought, the killer has such ans, escaping justice! He, possessing rely a ’yellow root’ diocrity, how could he receive such favor?!"
As he said this, Jackson Wilson’s tone grew sowhat agitated.
Under his tutelage, he had only one direct disciple, Kenny Anderson.
Though in his eyes, Kenny Anderson had diocre talent, he was cherished for his understanding nature.
Erging from secluded cultivation the day before, with no tasks at hand, he went to visit friends at the Vermilion Bird Altar.
Unexpectedly, once he arrived at the Vermilion Bird Altar, he learned that his direct disciple Kenny Anderson had been killed, and his murderer remains at large...
Upon understanding the situation and learning that the killer, Wyatt Barnes, was a disciple of the Black Tortoise Altar, he imdiately went to the Black Tortoise Altar.
Upon reaching the Black Tortoise Altar, he first sought his ntor.
He knew that two months ago, when the Black Tortoise Altar Law Enforcent Elder Abraham Clifford made a verdict on the murderer Wyatt Barnes, his ntor was present, and even expressed intentions to overturn Clifford’s decision at the ’Holy Land’ Enforcent Hall.
However, from what it appeared now, it seed his ntor’s efforts at the Holy Land Enforcent Hall had not borne fruit.
"Master! I heard you went to the Holy Land Enforcent Hall?"
Jackson Wilson looked at Maximus Lee and inquired.
"Hmm."
Maximus Lee nodded, and when Jackson Wilson ntioned the Enforcent Hall in the Holy Land, his face suddenly turned sowhat grim.
"Were you unable to overturn Abraham Clifford’s judgnt?"
Jackson Wilson asked again.
"No."
Maximus Lee shook his head.
"Why?!"
Jackson Wilson’s face showed unwillingness, "As far as I know, that Wyatt Barnes not only killed my disciple but also his younger brother... My disciple attacked him first and was killed. That can be considered self-defense.
But his killing of my disciple’s younger brother, Kenny Anderson, was clearly intentional murder! And many disciples from the Vermilion Bird Altar can testify, centing that Wyatt Barnes intentionally committed murder!"
"Does the Holy Land’s Enforcent Hall truly recognize Abraham Clifford’s judgnt?"
As he spoke, dissatisfaction crept into Jackson Wilson’s tone.
"Abraham Clifford submitted a dossier claiming Wyatt Barnes is a Martial Dao genius with a ’Green Spiritual Root’. Because of this, the Holy Land’s Enforcent Hall did not pursue the matter of Wyatt Barnes’ intentional murder."
Maximus Lee said in a deep voice.
Speaking of this matter, Maximus Lee was also very frustrated and aggrieved.
"Green Spiritual Root?"
Jackson Wilson was taken aback, then added, "Master, as far as I know, Wyatt Barnes’ innate spiritual root was a ’Yellow Spiritual Root’, wasn’t it? When he participated in the Black Tortoise Altar’s disciple assessnt, you seed to be one of the hosts as well?"
"Correct!"
Maximus Lee nodded, "At that ti, he tested his innate spiritual root with two Spirit Pearls consecutively, and both showed that his innate spiritual root was rely a ’Yellow Spiritual Root’! I can confirm this one hundred percent."
"So you’re saying there is a problem with the dossier Abraham Clifford submitted? That he falsely reported Wyatt Barnes’ innate spiritual root as a ’Green Spiritual Root’?"
A cold glint flashed in Jackson Wilson’s eyes.
"At first, I thought so too. For this reason, I even considered accusing that old fool Abraham Clifford... However, the people at the Holy Land’s Enforcent Hall said if I insisted on accusing Abraham Clifford, the Enforcent Hall would accept it."
"But, if after the Enforcent Hall sends soone to investigate, I am found to be slandering Abraham Clifford, I will face the punishnt from the Enforcent Hall!"
At this point, Maximus Lee’s face showed apprehension, "After all, Abraham Clifford, as the Law Enforcent Elder of the Black Tortoise Altar, is also part of the Enforcent Hall. Slandering a Law Enforcent Elder is no small accusation!"
"So... Master, even you are not sure if Wyatt Barnes’ innate spiritual root is a ’Green Spiritual Root’?"
Jackson Wilson frowned and asked, "But didn’t you witness Wyatt Barnes’ innate spiritual root test yourself? Didn’t you confirm his innate spiritual root as a ’Yellow Spiritual Root’?"
"Because that Wyatt Barnes knows how to conceal his entire cultivation, thinking of this, I dare not be certain whether he knows how to conceal the grade of his innate spiritual root... However, as it stands, this hypothesis does not hold!"
Maximus Lee continued, "After all, generally speaking, only those above the Saint Immortal Realm can sense their own innate spiritual root. And that Wyatt Barnes, rely an Earth Saint Realm martial artist, could not possibly sense his own innate spiritual root... Unable to sense his own innate spiritual root, how could he possibly hide the grade of it?"
"Indeed, that’s how it is!"
Upon hearing Maximus Lee’s speculation, Jackson Wilson’s eyes lit up, agreeing with this explanation, "From this perspective, it’s indeed Abraham Clifford, the Law Enforcent Elder of the Black Tortoise Altar, who is corrupt, and is falsifying the dossier!"
"I suspect the sa. However, over the past two months, I’ve investigated the relationship between Abraham Clifford and Wyatt Barnes nurous tis, yet I’ve found nothing shady between them... Logically, as the Protector Elder of the Black Tortoise Altar, Abraham Clifford has always been fair and just; he should not be helping a new disciple who hasn’t been at the Black Tortoise Altar for long by being corrupt!"
Maximus Lee shook his head and said, this was the point he found most puzzling.
It was precisely because of this that he hesitated and was unable to decisively accuse Abraham Clifford!
"Master, there must be so relationship between Abraham Clifford and that Wyatt Barnes, it’s just hidden so well that you haven’t discovered it! Just as you’ve said, with Wyatt Barnes’ level of cultivation, he simply couldn’t employ a thod to conceal the grade of his innate spiritual root."
Unlike Maximus Lee’s hesitation, Jackson Wilson spoke decisively, "Moreover, you witnessed it yourself; during his talent test, the result showed his innate spiritual root was rely a ’Yellow Spiritual Root’, and he tested it twice using two Spirit Pearls..."
"Therefore, it can be concluded that Wyatt Barnes’ innate spiritual root is indeed just a ’Yellow Spiritual Root’, and Abraham Clifford’s judgnt is entirely falsified!"
After thoroughly confirming this, Jackson Wilson said to Maximus Lee, "Master, combining all these points... I’ve decided to go to the Holy Land’s Enforcent Hall to accuse the Black Tortoise Altar’s Law Enforcent Elder, Abraham Clifford, of corruption and falsely reporting Wyatt Barnes’ innate spiritual root as a ’Green Spiritual Root’!"
"Once Abraham Clifford’s corruption is confird, Wyatt Barnes will also lose the ’exemption privilege’ within our Fire Worship Sect’s borderline rules... By then, as long as the Enforcent Hall issues a new judgnt, Wyatt Barnes, with a re ’Yellow Spiritual Root’, will undoubtedly be dood!"
"Additionally, Abraham Clifford will also have bad luck and might even be removed from his position as the Law Enforcent Elder of the Black Tortoise Altar!"
Jackson Wilson spoke convincingly.
After these words fell, he greeted Maximus Lee, and before Maximus Lee could co to his senses, he hurriedly departed.
"Truly growing more timid with age... When did my courage beco less than that of my disciple?"
Upon regaining his senses, Maximus Lee smiled self-deprecatingly.
