Chapter 635: Chapter 635 Mrs. Adams
Seeing the look of reverence on the faces of a group of the Roro Clan’s guards, Wyatt Barnes knew that he hadn’t got the wrong place.
This was indeed the ’Roro Clan’ ntioned by Taoi Roro in the past.
"However, why doesn’t the Roro Clan recognize Winnie?"
This was sothing that Wyatt didn’t quite understand.
At this mont, the leading guard of the Roro Clan was the first to co back to his senses, took a deep breath, and asked Wyatt, "Young Master, do you... do you know ’the Grand Master’?"
"Grand Master?"
Wyatt Barnes was startled, then realized that the ’Grand Master’ the guard was referring to was ’Taoi Roro’.
"Yes, I know him. I ca here specifically to find him."
Wyatt Barnes nodded.
Seeing Wyatt Barnes admit it, when the guard of the Roro Clan looked at him again, there was a certain degree of awe in his eyes, "My apologies for my earlier disrespect, I hope you can forgive ."
Wyatt Barnes smiled slightly, "No problem. Can you pass a ssage for ?"
"Young Master, please follow ."
Instead of going inside to pass the ssage, the guard of the Roro Clan directly called to Wyatt Barnes and then led the way into the Roro family mansion.
As for the other guards, they respectfully watched Wyatt Barnes’ figure depart.
"The Grand Master has not appeared publicly for many years... I can’t believe that such a young man knows him."
"Yes, the Grand Master is a ’legend’ in our Roro Clan... Legend has it that if the Grand Master hadn’t been disinterested in the position of our clan’s chief, he would now be the chief."
"I’ve heard the sa thing."
"The Grand Master’s power is said to have reached an incredible state, even surpassing the two elder ancestors of our Roro Clan."
...
The Roro Clan’s guards were whispering to each other.
There was nothing but awe in their words for ’Taoi Roro’.
Taoi Roro, the ’Grand Master’ of the Roro Clan, was also the ’big brother’ of the current chief of the Roro clan...
In the Roro Clan, his position was not below the chief, and was on par with the two Elder Ancestors.
Wyatt Barnes found all this out from the guard’s words as they walked along the way.
"I didn’t expect that the forr City Lord Roro had such a background."
Wyatt Barnes was secretly surprised.
At the sa ti, Wyatt Barnes asked the guard leading the way in curiosity. "Brother, your Roro Clan’s mansion is built with great magnificence, even comparable to the imperial palace... I suppose your Roro Clan must have a significant status in the Great Turdo Dynasty?"
Wyatt’s words were actually more probing.
As the words fell, a look of pride appeared on the face of the Roro Clan guard, who then asked Wyatt Barnes, "Young Master, you are not from our Great Turdo Dynasty, are you?"
"How can you tell?"
Wyatt Barnes was taken aback.
"If young master were from the Great Turdo Dynasty, there’s no way you wouldn’t know about our Roro Clan....."
The Roro Clan guard showed a trace of a smile.
Wyatt Barnes’s eyebrows raised slightly.
He had a vague sense that the Roro Clan probably had an extraordinary status in the Great Turdo Dynasty.
At this mont, the Roro Clan guard politely asked, "May I ask your na, Young Master?"
"Wyatt Barnes."
Wyatt spoke frankly.
"So, it’s Young Master Wyatt... if I’m not mistaken, I expect you’ve co to the Great Turdo Dynasty mostly for the ’Martial Contest of the Dynasty’?"
By the end of his speech, the Roro Clan guard took a deep look at Wyatt.
"Correct."
Wyatt didn’t hide anything, and then asked sowhat surprised, "How did you figure it out? Given my age, it’s hard for anyone to associate
with the ’Martial Contest of the Dynasty’."
Indeed.
The Martial Contest of the Dynasty gathered the most outstanding young talents from the Great Turdo Dynasty and other major empires.
Usually, these young talents were around thirty-five years old.
It was hard for anyone to associate a young man in his mid-twenties like Wyatt with the ’Martial Contest of the Dynasty’.
"Young Master Wyatt, I was actually guessing... since you know the Grand Master, you should not be seen as ordinary."
The Roro Clan guard said this matter-of-factly with a smile.
In his words, he showed extre blind admiration for Taoi Roro, the ’Grand Master’ of the Roro Clan.
It actually worked?
Wyatt was sowhat speechless.
At the sa ti, Wyatt realized the ’status’ of Taoi Roro in the Roro Clan...
Not the clan chief, but superior to the clan chief!
"Given City Lord Roro’s status in the Roro Clan... One would assu that his daughter, ’Winnie’, should be widely known by the Roro Clan’s people. Then why don’t they recognize Winnie?"
This was sothing Wyatt couldn’t understand.
However, he didn’t directly ask the Roro Clan guard.
"I’ll wait until I see City Lord Roro or Winnie to ask about it."
Wyatt thought to himself.
The Roro Clan’s mansion was vast, comparable with the palace of the Black Stone Empire, and featured nurous winding paths.
On the way, he could see many busy servants and maids.
Wyatt Barnes followed behind the Roro Clan’s guard, heading towards the eastern side of the Roro Clan’s mansion...
In the end, they stood in front of an incredibly spacious mansion.
This mansion was a ’mansion within a mansion’, located in the middle of the Roro Clan’s mansion, with a door tightly closed, completely separated from the outside world.
"Young Master Wyatt, this is where ’Grand Master’ resides."
The Roro Clan’s guard looked at Wyatt and respectfully said.
Following this, he stepped forward and knocked on the mansion’s main gate.
After a mont, the gate was slowly opened.
An elderly figure appeared behind the gate.
This was an old woman, her face etched with age and dressed in green. She looked just like a decrepit old hag...
But upon closer inspection, two deep sources of energy could be seen emanating from her eyes.
This old woman, was not ordinary.
"Senior Adams."
Facing the old woman, the Roro house guard respectfully bowed.
"What is it?"
The old woman did not lift her head, but questioned in a nonchalant manner.
"Senior!"
Before the Roro house guard could speak, Wyatt Barnes could not help but speak first.
He knew this old woman.
She was none other than Mrs. Adams, who he had t previously at the Main Mansion in Phoenix Perch City.
She was also soone who was always by Winnie’s side.
Back then, Mrs. Adams willingly knelt before him for Winnie’s sake. Her loyalty to Winnie was evident for all to see.
Wyatt Barnes had always held respect for Mrs. Adams.
Wyatt’s voice broke the sowhat solemn atmosphere.
Mrs. Adams lifted her head slowly and with a single glance, saw Wyatt Barnes standing behind the house guard.
"Wyatt... Young Master Wyatt!"
On seeing Wyatt Barnes, Mrs. Adam’s murky eyes flickered with energy and she exclaid in surprise.
The Roro house guard, seeing the old woman lose her composure and even calling Wyatt by na, began to realize Wyatt was no ordinary individual.
What a joke!
He knew very well who the old woman in front of him was.
This old woman was rumored to be the personal handmaid of the Madam Clan Chief of the previous generation of the Roro Clan and was also a formidable individual in her own right.
Today, even the Clan Chief of the Roro Clan has to show so courtesy when facing her.
With a single command, she could control the life and death of Roro house guards like him.
"Senior, long ti no see."
Wyatt Barnes greeted Mrs. Adams with a nod and a smile as his way of paying respects.
Mrs. Adams did not take offence and asked Wyatt Barnes to co in, "Young Master Wyatt, please co in."
As Wyatt Barnes walked into the mansion, he did not forget to nod in gratitude at the Roro house guard, "Thank you for your service."
"Young Master Wyatt, you are too kind."
The Roro house guard hurriedly replied modestly.
It was only when the mansion’s gate closed, the Roro house guard took a deep breath and turned to leave.
His heart was filled with shock:
"Even Senior Adams was extrely respectful when facing that young man just now... Even our Roro Clan’s young masters have never received such treatnt from Senior Adams."
"Could he be the illegitimate son of the Clan Chief?"
The Roro house guard couldn’t help but speculate.
Of course, this was only speculation.
If he dared to voice his suspicion, even ten lives would not be enough punishnt.
Now, Wyatt Barnes had entered the mansion, the one belonging to Taoi Roro, the head of the Roro family, accompanied by Mrs. Adams.
"Young Master Wyatt, when did you arrive in the capital city?"
As she led Wyatt Barnes deeper into the mansion, Mrs. Adams asked.
"I’ve been here for a while."
Wyatt responded with a slight smile, then asked, "Senior, are City Lord Roro and Winnie here?"
Mrs. Adams shook her head, "The City Lord and the young lady left for a trip last month. They will probably be gone for a while... However, they should be back before the ’Dynasty Martial Competition.’"
They left?
Wyatt Barnes gave a bitter smile, it seed his timing was off.
Soon, Wyatt Barnes was led into the grand hall in the center of the mansion by Mrs. Adams, who served him a pot of tea.
Despite the vastness of the mansion, not a single servant or maid could be seen. An eerie silence filled the air.
"Elder Kane isn’t here either?"
Wyatt Barnes looked around before questioning.
Mrs. Adams nodded, "Elder Kane also left with the City Lord and the young lady... Young Master Wyatt, you didn’t co to the capital city of the Great Turdo Dynasty just to see the City Lord and young lady, did you?"
Knowing Wyatt Barnes had been in the capital city of the Great Turdo Dynasty for a while indicated he didn’t co solely for the Roro clan.
"Yes."
Wyatt nodded, "I ca specifically for the ’Dynasty Martial Competition.’"
"The Dynasty Martial Competition?"
Mrs. Adams appeared surprised, "Could it be that Young Master Wyatt ca as a representative of the Black Stone Empire?"
Wyatt continued nodding.
For a mont, the way Mrs. Adams looked at Wyatt had completely changed, "I didn’t expect that in such a short span of years, Young Master Wyatt would improve his strength so rapidly. He even erged as the top talent among the many young talents in the Black Stone Empire, earning the right to participate in the ’Dynasty Martial Competition.’"
"Just luck," said Wyatt humbly.
Luck?
Mrs. Adams shook her head. Having lived for so many years, she naturally did not believe it was simply luck.
"Indeed, he is the man destined for our young lady... Truly extraordinary," Mrs. Adams sighed inwardly.
