Legend of Wyatt

Chapter 2035: Reuben Willow Arrives Too

Entering the main hall of the Enforcement Hall, what comes into view is an extremely spacious hall. In three directions inside the hall, there’s a row of counters, behind which a few elders of the Enforcement Hall stand.

However, currently, in front of most counters, there is not a single person.

Only in front of one counter, stand three individuals, whose attire clearly marks them as disciples of the ’Holy Land’ within the Fire Worship Sect.

Yet, at this moment, they are standing to one side of the counter, as if waiting for something.

"This person seems familiar..."

Meanwhile, one of the two true disciples who entered the main hall before Wyatt Barnes unconsciously turned around after hearing a swift whistling sound from behind.

With just one glance, he found Wyatt Barnes somewhat familiar, but couldn’t immediately recall where he had seen Wyatt before.

The other true disciple, hearing this, also promptly turned his head.

As soon as he saw Wyatt Barnes, he first frowned, then his brows relaxed, and his pupils suddenly shrank!

"This... isn’t this Wyatt Barnes?!"

The next moment, he couldn’t help but cry out in surprise.

Wyatt Barnes!

Because the true disciple did not intentionally lower his voice, it spread throughout the ’reception hall’ of the main hall of the Enforcement Hall.

In an instant, his words not only revitalized his companions’ spirits but also caught the attention of the few elders behind the counters, and the three true disciples standing by a distant counter.

Immediately, Wyatt Barnes became the absolute focus of the large reception hall.

"Hmm?"

Wyatt Barnes hadn’t expected to be recognized as soon as he walked in. Facing everyone’s gaze, he curved his lips slightly, nodding and smiling at everyone.

His courteous demeanor left everyone momentarily stunned.

"Is he really Wyatt Barnes?"

The three true disciples standing in the distance exchanged glances, seeing surprise and disbelief in each other’s eyes, with one of them directly asking this.

"It must be! I’ve seen his ’portrait’ before!"

"I never thought the Wyatt Barnes who allegedly provoked Senior Sister Emma without reason and publicly humiliated her would have this side... I originally thought he was an arrogant self-absorbed person, but didn’t expect him to be so polite."

"Provoked Senior Sister Emma without reason? You believe that?"

"I heard even Senior Sister Emma doesn’t know how she offended Wyatt Barnes!"

"Senior Sister Emma surely did something to offend Wyatt Barnes... and perhaps in that matter, she didn’t associate it with Wyatt, which is why she herself doesn’t know how she offended Wyatt."

...

The other two true disciples discussed one after another.

Wyatt Barnes’s courteousness was shocking not only to these three true disciples.

Even the few copper flame elders behind the counters and the two closest true disciples to Wyatt were equally shocked!

"Is this Wyatt Barnes?"

"Is this really Wyatt Barnes?"

...

At this moment, they too appeared as bewildered as the three true disciples.

"Elder, here is my ’proof’."

Disregarding the astonishment of others, Wyatt Barnes walked swiftly to the counter where the three true disciples were standing and handed the ’proof’ given to him by the Heritage Hall elder yesterday, to the elder of the Enforcement Hall behind the counter.

The elder of the Enforcement Hall looked at it and nodded, "Yes, this ’proof’ was issued by the Heritage Hall."

"Wyatt Barnes, please wait here for a moment... Once all ten of you who are picking up the mission have arrived, someone will lead you to meet and transition with the other ten true disciples."

After putting away the ’proof’, the Enforcement Hall elder spoke very politely to Wyatt Barnes.

Seeing the treatment Wyatt received, the three true disciples beside him couldn’t help but feel envious, but they knew this was the ’courtesy’ Wyatt deserved.

After all, Wyatt’s strength speaks for itself.

"Alright, thank you, Elder."

Wyatt Barnes nodded, smiled at the elder behind the counter, and stood aside.

Seeing Wyatt come to stand beside them, the three true disciples were full of curiosity about Wyatt, yet they didn’t dare to look him up and down, nor continue whispering, but started communicating telepathically.

Meanwhile, two other true disciples also came over to register.

And so, out of the ten true disciples who went to the Heritage Hall yesterday to pick up the tasks issued by the Enforcement Hall, six had already arrived.

With Wyatt Barnes’s arrival, the atmosphere in the reception hall of the main hall of the Enforcement Hall became somewhat oppressive, as no one spoke or made a sound.

Until the seventh true disciple arrived.

However, upon seeing this seventh true disciple, Wyatt Barnes couldn’t help but pause, revealing a look of astonishment.

For no other reason than that he knew this true disciple!

"Senior Brother Reuben? You... why are you here?"

Looking at the true disciple entering the reception hall, Wyatt Barnes asked in surprise.

"What’s wrong? Surprised?"

Reuben Willow, walking slowly into the reception hall, seemed to relish Wyatt Barnes’s surprised expression, unable to suppress a smile.

"It’s quite surprising."

Wyatt Barnes gave a bitter smile.

"Anyway, it’s just for a month... I’ll keep you company!"

Reuben Willow said with a smile.

Hearing Reuben Willow’s words, a warm current instantly rose in Wyatt Barnes’ heart.

He naturally knew Reuben Willow’s purpose here:

Simply to watch over him, trying his best to ensure he doesn’t further offend Enforcement Hall Elder ’Fore Reid’.

Additionally, to help him meet ’Paisley Flores’.

Soon, Reuben Willow also completed the procedures and stood beside Wyatt Barnes, waiting. He curiously asked, "Wyatt, when did you arrive?"

"Just arrived less than a quarter of an hour ago."

Wyatt Barnes replied.

"Looks like I’m late... I originally planned to arrive earlier, so you could see me at the first instance and be shocked."

Reuben Willow said with a smile.

"It’s still shocking now."

Upon hearing this, Wyatt Barnes’ face instantly revealed a hint of a bitter smile again.

Seeing Reuben Willow and Wyatt Barnes so familiar with each other, the other five elite disciples looked at Reuben Willow with eyes full of envy and schadenfreude.

The envy is naturally for Reuben Willow’s good relationship with Wyatt Barnes.

After all, Wyatt Barnes is now recognized by the entire Fire Worship Sect as the eighth ’prodigy’, not only having mastered four high-level Divine Abilities but also possessing the talented spirit root ’Azure Dragon Spirit Root’, making him an absolute genius!

Such a prodigious talent, as long as he doesn’t die prematurely, will grow into at least a ’Gold Flame Elder’ level person in the Fire Worship Sect in the future.

Thus, seeing Reuben Willow having such a good relationship with a future ’Gold Flame Elder’, they are all quite envious.

Schadenfreude, on the other hand, arises from the belief that Wyatt Barnes has offended many people, and as his friend, Reuben Willow is highly likely to also suffer from the consequences.

Not to mention Wyatt Barnes offended the first Silver Flame Elder ’Maximus Lee’ at Black Tortoise Altar, one of the Four Symbols Altars, and upon arriving at the Holy Land, he successively offended elite disciple ’Emma Wenston’ and Enforcement Hall Elder ’Fore Reid’.

The strength of these two might not be more than Wyatt Barnes’.

But, their background is terrifyingly large!

Take Emma Wenston for instance, her mentor is a Gold Flame Elder of the Fire Worship Sect and also the master of ’Azure Dragon Altar’, one of the Four Symbols Altars.

And Fore Reid’s background is even scarier.

Fore Reid’s father is none other than the Vice Hall Master of the Enforcement Hall where they are currently located!

"To have so greatly offended Elder Fore Reid and yet dare to take on tasks issued by the Enforcement Hall to come to work at the Enforcement Hall... Does this Wyatt Barnes not know that he is walking into the ’lion’s den’?"

This was the thought of the other five elite disciples and several of the Enforcement Hall elders present.

With the passage of time, the last three elite disciples also arrived.

Upon seeing Wyatt Barnes, they were also naturally surprised for a moment.

Even though they had already received news beforehand, knowing that Wyatt Barnes would be coming to the Enforcement Hall today to serve with them.

"You ten, follow me!"

After Wyatt Barnes and the other ten had gathered, an Enforcement Hall elder walked out from the Enforcement Hall main hall within ten breaths, calling Wyatt Barnes and the others to follow him.

By looking at the dedicated attire worn by this Enforcement Hall elder, it was unmistakably a ’Copper Flame Elder’.

Led by this Copper Flame Elder, Wyatt Barnes and the other ten met the elite disciples who had served in the Enforcement Hall for the past month and completed the ’handover’.

As for the content of the handover, it was nothing more than their original responsibilities.

These ten elite disciples, after completing the handover and preparing to leave the Enforcement Hall, each gave Wyatt Barnes a look of pity, while many shook their heads and let out a sigh.

Their thoughts were similar to others:

They all felt that Wyatt Barnes coming to work at the Enforcement Hall was akin to ’walking into the lion’s den’!

Clearly, they had heard of the conflict between Wyatt Barnes and Fore Reid.

As elite disciples serving at the Enforcement Hall, naturally, they have their own places to stay, which are located inside the Enforcement Hall main hall, each having an independent and spacious room.

"Wyatt, from tomorrow we will officially start serving at the Enforcement Hall... Today is also your only chance to see ’Sister Paisley’. Come on! I’ll take you to meet that elder from our family."

Just as he walked into the room and before he had a chance to close the door, Wyatt Barnes heard Reuben Willow’s voice from behind.

"Alright!"

Hearing Reuben Willow’s words, Wyatt Barnes’ gaze suddenly brightened.

His eyes, at this moment, were like two dazzling stars in the night sky.

"Let’s go to his residence first to look for him, and if he’s not there, we’ll go to his post where he’s on duty... After all, he’s not like us; he’s subject to rotation."

Reuben Willow added.

Because elite disciples only serve at the Enforcement Hall for a month before being dismissed, there is no talk of rotation or rest.

If rotation and rest must be mentioned, it can be done.

However, it would require resting for three months before one can take on tasks again issued by the Enforcement Hall to work at the Enforcement Hall.
