Legend of Wyatt

Chapter 1988: Coming to Seek Vengeance

In the Holy Land of the Fire Worship Sect, disciples are divided into two categories.

The first, elite disciples.

Any disciple from the Four Symbols Altar who enters the Holy Land and becomes a ’Holy Land disciple’ is, without exception, an ’elite disciple’.

Therefore, in the Holy Land of the Fire Worship Sect, all Holy Land disciples are elite disciples of the sect.

The second, true disciples.

Unlike the widespread elite disciples, the number of true disciples in the Holy Land of the Fire Worship Sect is not large, totaling over one hundred seventy.

Among these true disciples, more than ninety-nine percent have stepped into the ’Saint Immortal Realm’, the remaining are prodigious talents with ’blue spiritual roots’.

Possessing a ’green spiritual root’ means that as long as there are no accidents in the future, one will definitely step into the ’Saint Immortal Realm’ and become a ’Saint Immortal Realm strongman’!

Let alone possessing a ’blue spiritual root’.

Throughout the entire Fire Worship Sect today, there are no more than ten individuals with a ’blue spiritual root’.

Among them, some are from the older generation of strongmen in the Fire Worship Sect.

For example, the Sect Leader of the Fire Worship Sect, is one with a ’blue spiritual root’.

Also, two of the Three Great Protectors, and one of the two Vice Sect Leaders, are beings with a ’blue spiritual root’.

The other Protector and the other Vice Sect Leader, though only having ’green spiritual roots’, their gifted spiritual roots are ’deep green’, closely approaching ’blue spiritual roots’.

Because prodigious talents with ’blue spiritual roots’ have such promising futures, they have the privilege of becoming ’true disciples’ in the Holy Land of the Fire Worship Sect without having reached the ’Saint Immortal Realm’.

Although their cultivation is restricted to be above the ’Human Saint Realm’, for prodigious talents with ’blue spiritual roots’, advancing to the ’Human Saint Realm’ is as simple as eating or sleeping.

No difficulty at all!

In the Holy Land of the Fire Worship Sect, ’elite disciples’ live together in a vast valley independently opened for them on the Holy Island.

There, they have a total of three thousand small courtyards where they reside.

The cultivation environment is several times superior to the ’Level A rooms’ of each altar of the Four Symbols Altar.

As for the ’true disciples’, they do not reside on the Holy Island.

They inhabit various independent floating islands around the Holy Island, each occupying one island with their own spacious mansion. In front of the mansion, there is a large area of open space for practicing martial arts techniques and divine abilities.

"Creak—"

A soft sound emanated from one of the independent floating islands.

Inside the spacious mansion above, a young man pushed a door open and came out from one of the rooms.

This young man was tall and had a calm face with no apparent emotions.

If Wyatt Barnes were here and saw this young man, he would certainly notice... the youth’s appearance bore a five to six parts resemblance to the ’Warren Yorke’ he had killed before.

And this young man is none other than Warren Yorke’s elder brother:

Wade Yorke!

"Still lacking a bit... I should be able to successfully comprehend it during the next retreat!"

After exiting the room, Wade Yorke mumbled softly to himself.

As a ’true disciple’ of the Holy Land of the Fire Worship Sect, not only had Wade attained the ’first transformation of the Saint Immortal Realm’, but he also mastered an advanced movement divine ability.

In recent years, besides cultivating, he has focused on comprehending an advanced offensive divine ability.

This retreat finally made him see the ’dawn of success’ in mastering it!

"It’s a pity... little Warren won’t be able to see me mastering a second advanced divine ability."

Thinking of this, Wade Yorke’s face darkened, remembering his little brother Warren Yorke, who idolized him.

Although more than ninety percent of people in the Four Symbols Altar of the Fire Worship Sect believed Warren Yorke brought about his own demise, self-inflicted and unliveable!

As Warren’s elder brother, Wade refused to see it that way.

In his eyes, everything his brother did was right... even if his brother committed an atrocious act, he’d support him to the end, regardless of right or wrong!

For this reason, learning of Warren’s murder, Wade indiscriminately regarded the killer ’Wyatt Barnes’ as a mortal enemy who wouldn’t rest until one of them perished!

"Wyatt Barnes, came to the Holy Land?"

Just as Wade Yorke left his independent floating island and entered the Holy Island, preparing to head to the central plaza, he overheard the conversation of a few passing Holy Land disciples.

From their conversation, he learned that:

The enemy who killed his brother, Warren Yorke, had arrived in the Fire Worship Sect’s Holy Land and become a ’Holy Land disciple’!

"He actually comprehended the Black Tortoise Altar’s guardian divine ability ’Black Tortoise Protection’?"

Upon knowing why Wyatt Barnes was allowed to come early to the Fire Worship Sect’s Holy Land and become a ’Holy Land disciple’, a trace of jealousy flickered in Wade Yorke’s eyes.

Wade Yorke also hailed from the ’Black Tortoise Altar’, one of the Four Symbols Altar.

He had tried to comprehend the Black Tortoise Altar’s guardian divine ability ’Black Tortoise Protection’, but after years of unproductive attempts.

In the end, he chose to give up and began comprehending another advanced movement divine ability, which he now has mastered.

"Even if I can’t kill you openly, ruining you... I’ll make sure you taste a fate worse than death!"

A cold light flashed in Wade Yorke’s eyes, and then with a flicker of his figure, he left the central square, heading towards the residence of the Holy Land disciples.

As his figure moved swiftly, he carried an imposing aura, giving off the feeling of ’an unwelcome guest’.

He was not Maximus Lee.

Maximus Lee, as the Elder Silver Flame of the Black Tortoise Hall, naturally couldn’t easily make a move against a Black Tortoise Hall disciple, let alone ravage the other party to the point of being better off dead!

Because if he did so, it wouldn’t just be bullying the weaker, but the impact would be very far-reaching.

If the news got out, the Fire Worship Sect would lose face entirely, and it might even cause many Martial Dao geniuses, who originally intended to join the Fire Worship Sect, to turn to the other two great sects.

In this way, it would undoubtedly be a significant loss for the Fire Worship Sect.

For this reason, Maximus Lee had scruples, fearing that the sect’s high authorities might expel him from the Fire Worship Sect in anger.

However, while Maximus Lee had concerns, Wade Yorke had no such concerns.

He was not an elder of the Fire Worship Sect; he was just a ’disciple of the Fire Worship Sect’ like Wyatt Barnes... He avenged his brother and, in a fit of anger, made Wyatt Barnes better off dead, and even if the news spread, it would not affect the Fire Worship Sect’s reputation.

Moreover, as long as he didn’t cripple or kill Wyatt Barnes, it wouldn’t be considered a violation of the Fire Worship Sect’s regulations!

In fact, this can be considered a ’loophole’ in the Fire Worship Sect’s rules, but this loophole has always existed, and it seems to be deliberately left.

It is precisely because of this loophole that, from time to time, someone in the Fire Worship Sect is made better off dead...

And those who were made better off dead almost always strove to be strong later on.

Some eventually got their revenge;

Some, while they failed to exact revenge, upon reflection, found that their progress during the previous period far surpassed that of before.

There is ’loss’ and ’gain’, but the ’gain’ outweighs the ’loss’!

It can be said that this ’loophole’ in the Fire Worship Sect’s regulations has, to a certain extent, motivated many Fire Worship Sect disciples.

Of course, in the Fire Worship Sect, unless one really hates someone, and the other party is unwilling to enter a ’Life and Death Covenant’... generally speaking, no one would really go so far as to make another person better off dead.

"It’s Senior Brother Wade Yorke!"

When Wade Yorke’s figure appeared in the residence of the Holy Land disciples, within the expansive valley, it immediately attracted the attention of many Holy Land disciples.

Wade Yorke, too, used to be a Holy Land disciple living here.

However, because he later broke through to the ’Saint Immortal Realm’ and became a ’core disciple’, he left this place.

But, there were still many Holy Land disciples who remembered him and recognized him at a glance.

Whoosh!

Wade Yorke moved, and moments later, he had arrived at one side of the valley.

There, five Holy Land disciples were gathered together. They were chatting initially, but as Wade Yorke arrived, their attention was drawn to him.

Now, seeing Wade Yorke at their side, they were somewhat restrained.

"Senior Brother Wade Yorke!"

"Senior Brother Wade Yorke!"

...

Facing Wade Yorke, a ’core disciple’, the five Holy Land disciples were somewhat reserved and nervous.

"Where does Wyatt Barnes live?"

Wade Yorke glanced at the five Holy Land disciples, showing a look of arrogance between his eyebrows, and looked down on them with the eyes of a superior observing subordinates, while he asked.

Hearing Wade Yorke’s words, the five Holy Land disciples immediately realized that Wade Yorke was not targeting them.

For a moment, they all breathed a sigh of relief, then uniformly pointed in one direction.

Wade Yorke looked in the direction pointed by the five Holy Land disciples and quickly locked onto a small courtyard, flying over immediately.

However, when he arrived outside the courtyard, he did not force his way in, but sat cross-legged in the air, closing his eyes to rest.

While cultivating, he quietly waited.

It’s not that he didn’t want to break in!

But once he forced his way in, the consequences could be beyond what he could bear.

Firstly, behind every small courtyard in the residence of the Holy Land disciples, the stone house had excellent soundproofing, and formations were set up to block Divine Sense probing.

To awaken the person inside, besides pushing the door open, one must destroy the formation that isolates Divine Sense or demolish the stone house.

However, doing so would very likely cause the person inside to go mad from cultivation deviation.

According to the Fire Worship Sect’s regulations, anyone who disturbs a fellow disciple’s cultivation, causing them to go mad from cultivation deviation... regardless of talent or identity, would be directly executed by the Holy Land Enforcement Hall!

Wade Yorke naturally wished for Wyatt Barnes to go mad from cultivation deviation.

But if it meant sacrificing his own life for it, he felt it wasn’t worth it.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t only be thinking of making Wyatt Barnes better off dead, instead of directly killing Wyatt Barnes...

Precisely because he felt Wyatt Barnes’s life was not as valuable as his, he felt it wasn’t worth destroying himself over Wyatt Barnes!
