Chapter 2665: Slaying the Inferior Alchemy Immortal Master
A hundred thousand top-grade Immortal Stones.
Let alone Cruz Mullins, the head of the Mullins Family, there’s no way he can take that out.
Even if you add up the entire Mullins Family, they still couldn’t pull out that many top-grade Immortal Stones in one go.
Unless they sold off some of their money-making industries.
But is that even possible?
"If I’m not willing... Family Head Mullins, what will you do?"
Hearing Cruz Mullins’ words, and seeing the threat in his eyes, Wyatt Barnes narrowed his eyes to slits, smiled faintly, and asked.
Right now, Wyatt was smiling, but that smile, falling into Cruz Mullins’ eyes, still made him feel a chill in his heart, and at the same time made him even more certain:
This purple-clad young man is not simple!
"Sir, three thousand top-grade Immortal Stones... three thousand top-grade Immortal Stones is already all the top-grade Immortal Stones I can bring out! Any more, and I really have no way."
Because he increasingly felt that Wyatt was not simple, Cruz Mullins compromised further as he spoke.
"Since you have no way... then I can only take your son’s life."
Wyatt said blandly.
As his voice fell, he looked again at Anders Mullins, killing intent flashing in his eyes.
"Father!"
Seeing Wyatt looking over with killing intent in his eyes, Anders Mullins’ face changed drastically from fright, and he hurriedly flashed behind Cruz Mullins, like grabbing his last life-saving straw. "Father, I don’t want to die... I don’t want to die!"
"Sir, don’t refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit!"
Although he was greatly disappointed by his son’s performance, that was still his own flesh and blood, and his only son at that. No matter what, Cruz Mullins didn’t want anything to happen to his son. He glared at Wyatt, suddenly letting out a cold shout.
"Refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit?"
Wyatt laughed, and his smile was brilliantly radiant.
After laughing for a while, his smile faded, and a cold, murderous air surfaced on Wyatt’s face. "Family Head Mullins, if you don’t want to throw yourself in as well, don’t want to drag the Mullins Family in... I advise you to hand him over, and don’t meddle in the grudge between me and him."
"Hmph!"
Cruz Mullins snorted coldly, then raised his hand and took out several Jade Slips. Pouring Immortal Origin into them, he sent them all shooting off in different directions, streaking toward all corners of the Mullins Family estate.
"Transmission Immortal Talismans?"
Wyatt could easily have intercepted every Transmission Immortal Talisman that Cruz Mullins sent out, but he didn’t do that, because he felt there was no need.
"Looks like... Family Head Mullins, you plan on dragging your Mullins Family along to be buried with your son!"
Wyatt gave Cruz Mullins a deep look and said, "I originally thought Family Head Mullins was a smart man... now it seems you’re nothing more than a rash fool who blindly shields his own!"
"If I were you, I’d leave immediately instead of staying here to argue... once the Mullins Family experts arrive, you won’t be able to leave even if you want to!"
Cruz Mullins said coldly, killing intent flashing in his eyes.
Though he was the head of the Mullins Family, his strength was not the strongest in the family.
Within the Mullins Family, there were three Supreme Elders whose strength surpassed his.
One of those Supreme Elders was even an inner-elder of the Nine Nether County’s County Governor’s Mansion. His strength was such that, even among all the inner-elders of the County Governor’s Mansion, he could rank third, only below two other inner-elders.
"Since Family Head Mullins is so confident in your Mullins Family... then I really want to see what means your Mullins Family has that can keep me from walking out of here!"
Hearing Cruz Mullins’ words, Wyatt laughed again, his smile becoming even more dazzling.
As for the killing intent flashing in Cruz Mullins’ eyes, he seemed to ignore it completely.
Although the waiting that followed was very short, for the father and son of the Mullins Family, it felt like years.
"You unfilial son, just who did you provoke?"
Cruz Mullins sent a voice transmission to Anders Mullins, his tone filled with furious anger.
"Father, I... I don’t know who he is either."
Anders Mullins replied via voice transmission with a bitter smile.
Then, as though he suddenly thought of something, Anders’ eyes lit up and he said, "How about I... I tell Mother about this as well?"
"Although the Knight Family is in decline now, that Elder Ancestor of the Knight Family is still the number one person below Daai Law Golden Immortal level in Nine Nether County. And he’s also Mother’s own uncle, who has always doted on Mother and treats her like his own daughter."
"If Mother begs him to act... he probably won’t refuse, right?"
By the end, Anders Mullins’ eyes were shining brighter and brighter, as if he’d found another life-saving straw.
"Tell her... let’s hope the Knight Family’s Elder Ancestor is willing to act. If he does, to a certain extent he can even represent the County Governor’s Mansion and put pressure on this kid of unknown origin!"
Cruz Mullins said via voice transmission, and by the time he looked at Wyatt again, the fear in his eyes had lessened a great deal.
Hearing this, Anders Mullins raised his hand and shot out a Transmission Immortal Talisman as well.
Wyatt similarly did not intercept the Transmission Immortal Talisman that Anders Mullins sent out. From start to finish, he merely watched coldly from the side, as if no matter who this father and son called over, no matter what helpers they found, he felt no fear at all.
After about a dozen breaths.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
...
Accompanied by bursts of sharp wind howls, figures shot over at great speed from all directions around the Mullins Family’s main hall, coming from all parts of the Mullins estate. In the blink of an eye, they had arrived near the main hall, appearing at the side of Cruz Mullins, head of the Mullins Family.
Among those who came were old men, middle-aged men, and several young men as well.
But without exception, every one of these people was an existence above the level of Golden Immortal.
"Patriarch, what happened?"
"Patriarch, who dares run wild in our Mullins Family?"
...
After this group arrived, although many were still asking Cruz Mullins questions, even more of them had already fixed their gaze on Wyatt Barnes, glaring at him with hostile eyes, as if he were a hated enemy who had killed their sons and stolen their wives.
"It’s this man. He not only killed Elder Liu Li, he even chased my son all the way to my Mullins Family estate!"
Cruz Mullins stared at Wyatt, speaking in a low voice.
"Elder Liu Li was killed by him? Damn it! Brat, don’t even think about leaving our Mullins Family alive today!"
"You killed a member of our Mullins Family—you must pay with your life!"
...
The people who just arrived were all Mullins Family elders. Every one of them glared at Wyatt, righteously furious, yet not a single one actually made a move.
They weren’t stupid.
Since the man before them could still be standing here alive, it meant that even their Mullins Family Patriarch, Cruz Mullins, might not have a way to deal with him. With their strength inferior to Eliel Mullins, naturally they couldn’t possibly rush up recklessly—that would be no different from throwing their lives away.
In their eyes:
If their Mullins Family Patriarch, Cruz Mullins, had the ability to kill this man, there was no way he would have allowed him to live until now.
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Two more sharp gusting wind sounds arrived; an old man with snow‑white hair and a middle‑aged man of average build rushed over from two different directions, and in the blink of an eye they were already in the air above the Mullins Family’s main hall.
"Supreme Elder!"
"Greetings, Supreme Elders!"
...
After the two arrived, the Mullins Family higher‑ups led by Patriarch Cruz Mullins, along with Anders Mullins, all saluted them one after another.
"Cruz, what happened?"
The white‑haired old man, dressed in a gray long robe, crane‑haired and child‑faced, looked at Cruz Mullins and asked.
"Second Grand‑Uncle."
Cruz Mullins replied with utmost respect, "This is what happened..."
Next, Cruz Mullins honestly recounted the whole sequence of events in detail, not daring to conceal a thing.
At the same time, everyone from the Mullins Family present also knew that this was trouble stirred up by Cruz Mullins’s only son, Anders Mullins, and that the fault lay with Anders. For a moment, they all cast hostile looks at Anders Mullins, only withdrawing their gazes after a long while.
"This purple‑clothed young man most likely has an extraordinary background."
"If he didn’t, where would he get the confidence to stand here waiting for us to arrive?"
"Now, even with the two Supreme Elders here... he still hasn’t shown the slightest hint of panic. Could it be he doesn’t even fear our Mullins Family’s two Supreme Elders?"
...
When the group of Mullins Family elders looked at Wyatt again, the apprehension in their eyes deepened.
"Hmph!"
The Mullins Family Supreme Elder who looked like a middle‑aged man swept a cold glance over Wyatt and let out a cold snort. "I don’t care who you are or where you came from... as they say, ’A mighty dragon can’t suppress the local serpent’! This is the Mullins Family, this is Nine Nether County’s County City. If you know what’s good for you, you’ll leave immediately!"
"And what if I don’t know what’s good for me?"
Wyatt narrowed his eyes and met the gaze of this Mullins Family Supreme Elder without the slightest servility or arrogance, countering with a question.
"Don’t know what’s good for you? Then don’t even think about leaving today!"
The Mullins Family Supreme Elder in the guise of a middle‑aged man suddenly darkened his expression, killing intent shooting from his eyes. When he looked at Wyatt again, it was as if he were looking at a dead man...
Besides being a Mullins Family Supreme Elder, he was also a Lower‑grade Alchemy Immortal Master.
Ordinarily, even the Lord of Nine Nether County, the County Governor of Nine Nether County, Tian Jiyu, had to address him politely as ’Alchemist Liu’ when they met.
After all, a Lower‑grade Alchemy Immortal Master who disregarded his life and death could completely choose to perish together with a Daai Law Golden Immortal.
Once a lower‑grade immortal fire was detonated by a Lower‑grade Alchemy Immortal Master, an existence at Tian Jiyu’s level—a Daai Law Golden Immortal—was destined only to be buried along with that Alchemy Immortal Master!
Thus, as a Lower‑grade Alchemy Immortal Master, he was extremely proud.
"Is that so?"
Almost the instant the Mullins Family Supreme Elder’s words fell, Wyatt’s gaze abruptly turned icy, and a chilling killing intent surged out from his body.
Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish!
...
The next moment, countless sword rays rose from the surface of Wyatt’s body, then merged into a Sword Array that swept toward that Mullins Family Supreme Elder.
Even without using the Heavenly Artifact Seven‑Aperture Exquisite Sword, relying only on lower‑grade Immortal Artifact‑level immortal swords, Wyatt going all out was still as swift as rolling thunder and as unstoppable as a hot knife through butter—far from something any existence below Daai Law Golden Immortal could resist.
Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!
...
The Lower‑grade Alchemy Immortal Master whose cultivation had stepped into the level of Blue Sun Golden Immortal didn’t even have time to detonate his immortal fire before he was engulfed by Wyatt’s Sword Array, his entire body riddled with holes!
