Legend of Wyatt

Chapter 2033: Leader of the Eight Great Geniuses

"Wyatt, junior disciple!"

A sudden voice came from outside, instantly startling Wyatt Barnes, whose mind was not on cultivation. It prompted Wyatt to immediately leave the ’Jewel Tower’ and walk out of the room.

He recognized the voice; it was Reuben Willow’s.

"Senior brother Reuben? Is there something you need from me?"

Rising into the air and meeting Reuben Willow face to face, Wyatt Barnes asked with a smile.

As the saying goes, ’A joyful event brings a refreshing spirit’!

Currently, Wyatt Barnes gives Reuben the feeling of being entirely different from before, almost as if he has transformed into another person, exuding a vigorous vitality throughout.

"Wyatt, junior disciple, I know you are going to the Heritage Hall tomorrow... However, when you get there, you must be cautious of ’Fore Reid’!"

Unlike Wyatt Barnes’ full-face smile, Reuben Willow’s expression was extremely solemn, and he cautioned in a serious tone:

"You probably already know Fore Reid’s background and that he is the only son of one of the Enforcement Hall’s vice hall masters... However, you might not know: that vice hall master of the Enforcement Hall is a notorious ’ruthless person’!"

"Years ago, his wife was accidentally injured by an elder from the Mysterious Buddha Sect, and he directly went to the Mysterious Buddha Sect and killed that elder! At that time, the powerful attackers from the Mysterious Buddha Sect were severely injured by him, and he himself was gravely injured and left dying."

"If the Sect Leader hadn’t intervened timely, he would have died! He went to the Mysterious Buddha Sect, convinced that his wife wouldn’t survive and went with a determination of certain death."

At this point, Reuben Willow paused for a moment and continued, "Later, he discovered that his critically wounded and dying wife was pregnant... And after early childbirth, his wife died after giving birth to Fore Reid."

"Since then, Fore Reid has been his new ’pillar’... It can be said that Fore Reid is the most important person to him in this world!"

"You publicly humiliated Fore Reid, and if he finds out, he probably won’t let it go!"

Reuben Willow said all in one breath.

"Could he possibly act against me inside the Fire Worship Sect?"

Wyatt Barnes raised his eyebrows and asked.

"He won’t act against you within the Fire Worship Sect; after all, as a vice hall master of the Enforcement Hall, and with the Sect Leader’s past ’benevolence’, he wouldn’t dare act recklessly... However, once outside the Fire Worship Sect, anything could happen."

Reuben Willow shook his head and then said, "I came today mainly to remind you... Regardless of how great the conflict between you and Fore Reid is, it’s best not to think about killing him! Once you kill him, that vice hall master from the Enforcement Hall will have no scruples!"

"Even inside the Fire Worship Sect, he might kill you! For his son, he would absolutely risk everything!"

Reuben Willow’s complexion grew solemn as he cautioned further.

"Thank you, senior brother Reuben, for the reminder."

Wyatt Barnes nodded, while in his heart, he grew somewhat apprehensive about Fore Reid’s vice hall master father.

From Reuben Willow’s words, he could sense that the other party is a ’ruthless person’!

For his wife, he single-handedly charged into the Mysterious Buddha Sect, which is not something just anyone can do!

Furthermore, his wife died, and left him with a son... It’s obvious how important this son is in his heart!

Once this son dies, he will definitely go mad!

However, Wyatt Barnes is only apprehensive; he has no intention to kill Fore Reid at the moment.

Besides, even if he initiates a ’duel to the death’ with Fore Reid, Fore Reid may not respond.

Thus, he is not worried that the vice hall master of the Enforcement Hall will personally act against him.

"As for what happens after leaving the Fire Worship Sect... once you leave the sect, why wait for him or his men to act? The Mysterious Buddha Hall’s first silver flame elder, ’Maximus Lee,’ will not easily let me go!"

Wyatt Barnes is also acutely aware of this point.

Thus, he is not concerned about Fore Reid’s father dealing with him after leaving the Fire Worship Sect.

"Wyatt, junior disciple, tomorrow you are going to the Enforcement Hall... If possible, once you’re there, try not to clash with Fore Reid. Otherwise, even if Fore Reid’s father doesn’t personally punish you, he will definitely instruct Elder Silver Flame to do so!"

Reuben Willow further reminded.

Arriving at the Enforcement Hall, that is the stage for the Reid family father and son, so he cannot help but feel worried for Wyatt Barnes.

"Rest assured, I will be prudent."

Wyatt Barnes nodded. He and Fore Reid do not have any deep-seated hatred, and as long as Fore Reid doesn’t provoke him, he won’t bother with Fore Reid again.

After all, he didn’t suffer any loss today.

"Wyatt, junior disciple, your innate talent spiritual root... is it truly ’Blue Spiritual Root’?"

Seeing Wyatt Barnes listening to him, Reuben Willow exhaled a sigh of relief, while seemingly reminded of something, he asked, tightly gazing at Wyatt Barnes.

He heard about today’s events.

He not only knew about the conflict between Wyatt Barnes and Fore Reid but also knew that Wyatt Barnes inadvertently gave Fore Reid a resounding slap in the face.

And the slap he gave was by demonstrating his innate talent spiritual root ’Blue Spiritual Root’!

However, even after hearing about Wyatt Barnes’ innate talent spiritual root being ’Blue Spiritual Root’, he was still somewhat skeptical, as the news of Wyatt Barnes’ innate talent spiritual root being ’Yellow Spiritual Root’ was deeply ingrained.

Therefore, it was at this moment that he suddenly asked Wyatt Barnes this question.

"Yes."

Wyatt Barnes nodded with a smile.

"Then... when you conducted the innate skill testing at the ’Black Tortoise Platform’ of the Four Symbols Platforms, why was your innate skill root twice tested as a ’yellow root’?"

Upon hearing Reuben Willow’s further inquiry, Wyatt Barnes immediately realized that Reuben Willow intended to get to the bottom of things.

He was already prepared for this:

"I know a ’secret technique’ that can conceal the innate skill root... At that time, it was because I used that secret technique that my innate skill root was tested as just a ’yellow root’."

Wyatt Barnes spoke glibly, this was also the excuse he had prepared early on.

Furthermore, he believed that most people now also believed this.

If not, the significant difference in his innate skill root before and after would be hard to explain.

"I see."

Although Reuben Willow had already guessed as much, hearing it from Wyatt Barnes was another feeling altogether, and he was still filled with shock.

"So in that case... even the ’green root’ you display now may not be your true innate skill root, right?"

Suddenly, Reuben Willow thought of this and couldn’t help but ask.

Indeed.

Since Wyatt Barnes could previously conceal his innate skill root as a ’yellow root,’ it was possible that the ’green root’ he displayed now was also not his true innate skill root!

As his words fell, Reuben Willow was fixated on Wyatt Barnes as if trying to discern something from his face.

At this moment, Wyatt Barnes also timely gave a mysterious smile.

It was precisely this mysterious smile that further confirmed Reuben Willow’s suspicion:

His junior brother Wyatt’s innate skill root might be a ’blue root’!

At this thought, Reuben Willow’s heart couldn’t help but race rapidly, unable to calm down for a long time.

Of course, the reason Wyatt Barnes showed a mysterious smile at this moment was also intentional.

He did so to make Reuben Willow mistake that the ’green root’ he displayed was still somewhat reserved.

After all, his innate skill root can be enhanced through the Divine Ability ’Minor Devouring Technique.’

As long as there are enough innate skill roots for him to devour, his innate skill root will eventually transform into a ’blue root,’ and even a ’purple root’!

In this scenario, it was better to plant a ’teaser’ first.

This way, even if he shows a higher-grade innate skill root in the future, Reuben Willow would not be overly shocked.

"Junior brother Wyatt, my purpose for visiting you has been achieved, so I won’t disturb your cultivation any longer."

Seeing Wyatt Barnes only give a mysterious smile without admitting anything, Reuben Willow did not continue to press him and took his leave.

In his mind:

At this point, there’s no need to ask further, as Wyatt Barnes’s mysterious smile had already told him everything.

Therefore, as he left, Reuben Willow’s mood remained extremely stirred, unable to calm down for a long time.

"I really didn’t expect that not only is junior brother Wyatt’s Divine Ability talent exceptional, but even his Martial Dao talent is just as formidable... As long as he is given enough time, rankings like second or first on the True Inheritance List will all be surpassed by him!"

Regarding this, Reuben Willow was firmly convinced in his heart.

"Junior brother Wyatt is truly the most outstanding ’genius’ of our Fire Worship Sect... even calling him the leader of the Eight Great Geniuses is not an exaggeration!"

Reuben Willow confirmed to himself.

After watching Reuben Willow leave, Wyatt Barnes’s agitated mood due to missing Keer and her daughter calmed down quite a bit, and he also felt some pressure due to Fore Reid’s father’s ’protectiveness.’

After all, tomorrow he would report to the ’Enforcement Hall’ and hand over with the true disciple currently on duty there, becoming the true disciple on duty at the Enforcement Hall for the next month.

When at the Enforcement Hall, if Fore Reid’s father wanted to cause him trouble, as Reuben Willow had said, there would be no need for him to act personally, he could directly have Elder Silver Flame deal with it.

Elder Silver Flame, the weakest is the ’Saint Immortal Third Transformation,’ and the strongest can even be the ’Saint Immortal Fourth Transformation.’

"With my current strength, facing a ’Saint Immortal Third Transformation’ Elder Silver Flame is challenging... After all, unless there’s a chance to kill the opponent, it’s impossible for me to easily use the ’Splendid Fairy Sword’ in front of them!"

This was something Wyatt Barnes was very clear about in his heart.

It was precisely for this reason that he had to fear the wrath from Fore Reid’s father.

"Forget it... My purpose is to see Keer and her mother. As long as I can see them, what’s a little grievance? Moreover, if he truly dares to have Elder Silver Flame teach me a lesson, I will definitely repay the lesson given by Elder Silver Flame to his son!"

With this thought, a cold light flashed in Wyatt Barnes’s eyes.

He is not someone easy to deal with!
