Chapter 2081: The Death of the Dongfang Father and Son
Chapter 2081: The Death of the Dongfang Father and Son
Although, because Hev Easton held back, Bless Easton was kicked out without much injury.
But now, Bless Easton felt dizzy from the fall and couldn’t quite make sense of the situation.
He didn’t understand why his father would treat him like this!
However, the next moment, he was stunned again.
At the same time, the confusion on his face turned pale as paper, devoid of color.
It was because, in front of his eyes, a scene appeared that he would never forget.
He saw—
Bam!!
With a loud bang, the head of the Easton Family, "Hev Easton," after Wells Brightfall of the Brightfall Family, knelt before Wyatt Barnes, his whole body prostrate on the ground.
Like a humble servant saluting his "master"!
"Sir... my... my son is ignorant, please forgive him, sir!!"
Now, kneeling in front of Wyatt Barnes, Hev Easton’s voice began to tremble, full of dread and fear.
Almost as if the person standing before him was not a human, but a "Grim Reaper" ready to take a life at any moment.
"If I didn’t hear it wrong... your son just said: You had the Brightfall Family hand me over so you could kill me?"
Wyatt Barnes looked at Hev Easton, who was kneeling on the ground, his tone as calm as before.
Yet beneath this calmness, there was a faint hint of killing intent.
"No... no! It’s not true!!"
Hearing Wyatt Barnes’ words, Hev Easton trembled with fear and hurriedly denied it.
"If that’s not the case... then swear an oath of ’Thunder Punishment,’ claiming you never intended to kill me from the very beginning!"
It was clear Wyatt Barnes didn’t believe Hev Easton’s words, and with his next request, he demanded a pledge.
Hearing Wyatt Barnes’ request, not only did Hev Easton’s face change dramatically, but everyone from the Easton Family, including Bless Easton, was similarly shaken.
Their purpose for coming to the Brightfall Family today was to have the Brightfall Family hand over this violet-clad young man and kill him!
How could Hev Easton dare to take Wyatt Barnes’ demand and swear such a ’Thunder Punishment oath’?
If he made such an oath, he would be struck down by the Thunder Punishment the next moment!
"The head of the Easton Family, ’Hev Easton’... is finished!"
Not far away, watching from behind Leilani Brightfall, the Brightfall Family’s Second Elder, Wells Brightfall, realized that Hev Easton was doomed upon hearing Wyatt Barnes’ demand.
"Sir... I... I was confused for a moment! I was confused for a moment! Please, sir, have mercy!! Have mercy, sir!!!!"
Noticing Wyatt Barnes’ gaze growing colder, Hev Easton realized the imminent danger, and immediately started pleading for mercy while kowtowing.
Bam! Bam! Bam!
...
Once Hev Easton started kowtowing, he didn’t stop, continuing endlessly for a long while.
"Hmph!"
Wyatt Barnes coldly snorted, his progressively colder face showing no sign of easing up because of Hev Easton’s plea for mercy.
"I have a principle..."
At the same time, Wyatt Barnes spoke in a cold tone: "Anyone who seeks my life, I shall not let them continue living in this world!"
In one short sentence, Wyatt Barnes laid out his "principle."
Anyone intending to kill him, he would not let them go!
"Then go to hell!"
Simultaneously, realizing Wyatt Barnes wouldn’t spare him, Hev Easton stopped begging and, with a swift movement, shot towards Wyatt Barnes.
Whoosh!
In the blink of an eye, Hev Easton burst forth like a cannonball, rapidly closing the distance to Wyatt Barnes.
Judging from the Saint Origin quickly surging from his body, it was obvious he had been ready to move at any moment!
Otherwise, it wouldn’t have been possible to mobilize such substantial Saint Origin in just a moment.
Hua!!
Just as Hev Easton shot forward, a turbulent vortex centered around Wyatt Barnes appeared, swallowing all the restored Spiritual Energy in the Brightfall Family’s main hall once more.
This caused Wyatt Barnes’ Solar Holy Power to rise rapidly to its peak!
And just as his Solar Holy Power reached its peak, Hev Easton was already close, just inches away from Wyatt Barnes!
"If you want me dead, you’d better have the capability to do it!"
Feeling the gusts kicked up as Hev Easton charged, Wyatt Barnes spoke in a calm tone.
And almost at the instant he spoke.
Sshhh!!
Just as before, a fleeting sword whistle echoed, swift and fleeting.
Immediately, everyone saw Wyatt Barnes leap up, jumping three meters high.
Almost in the same instant Wyatt Barnes jumped up.
Following in the footsteps of the Brightfall Family’s Second Patriarch, Jaxton Brightfall, Hev Easton, the head of the Easton Family, with his body split in two, was flung out by inertia, smashing against the wall on one side of the Brightfall Family’s main hall, trailing a "bloody path."
Boom! Boom!
The sound of two halves of a body hitting the ground echoed in the ears of those present, filling them with shock and fear.
After all, the person killed now wasn’t a Heavenly Saint Realm martial artist like Jaxton Brightfall, but a real "Saint Immortal Realm master," a top-tier expert in Airebright City!
And now, this kind of powerful expert died instantly in another’s hands, right before their eyes!
Suddenly, the Brightfall Family hall fell into a dead silence once again.
"Pathetic!"
It wasn’t until Wyatt Barnes spoke disdainfully that everyone came back to their senses.
"Fa... Father!!"
Bless Easton, the Second Young Master of the Easton Family, turned pale with fear reflected in his eyes.
He never would have dreamed:
His father, who was like an ’Undefeated War God’ in his heart, had died just like that!
Died at the hands of this self-proclaimed loose cultivator, Eden Lee!
At the same time, his heart was filled with endless ’regret’...
Regret for targeting Leilani Brightfall, for persistently bothering her even after she clearly rejected him!
If not for that, he wouldn’t have gone to that restaurant with Leilani today.
If he hadn’t gone to that restaurant, he wouldn’t have encountered this ’jinx’.
If he hadn’t encountered this jinx, he wouldn’t have gotten into a conflict, escalating tensions to such a point.
"Escape!!"
After another glance at Hev Easton’s body, Bless Easton’s expression changed rapidly, and then he moved like a flash of lightning, darting outside the Brightfall Family hall.
Now, all he wanted was to escape this place of trouble as quickly as possible!
His father, even after kowtowing for mercy, was killed by Eden Lee.
He couldn’t believe Eden Lee would be merciful to him.
But can he escape?
"Trying to run?"
When Bless Easton made his move, Wyatt Barnes raised an eyebrow, but the tumultuous Sun Holy Power calmed down in an instant, and he did not make a move.
And the reason he didn’t make a move was that someone else did.
Swoosh!
With the sound of a swift wind, before Bless Easton could escape the Brightfall Family hall, he was grabbed back like a chick by someone.
"Gr... Grand Elder! Why? Why?!"
At the same time, seeing the person who grabbed him, Bless Easton was astonished and asked incredulously.
Because the person who grabbed him back was none other than the Grand Elder of the Easton Family!
The Grand Elder of the Easton Family was a tall and robust elderly man, nearly two meters tall, now holding Bless Easton in his hand, and it looked like an eagle catching a chick.
"Lord Eden Lee!"
The Grand Elder of the Easton Family ignored Bless Easton’s questions and respectfully brought him to Wyatt Barnes, asking with utmost respect, "This Bless Easton... how does Lord Eden Lee wish to deal with him?"
"How to deal with him?"
Wyatt Barnes glanced at the Grand Elder of the Easton Family indifferently and then asked back, "Didn’t you hear what I just said?"
The Grand Elder of the Easton Family shivered in his heart upon hearing this, and then looked sharply at Bless Easton.
"No! No!!"
And sensing the sharp gaze of their Grand Elder, seemingly realizing something, Bless Easton’s face changed drastically, crying out in panic, "Grand Elder, you... you can’t kill me! You can’t kill me!!"
Crack!!
In the end, the Grand Elder of the Easton Family still twisted Bless Easton’s neck, killing him.
The act was decisive, without any hesitation!
Witnessing this, the members of the Brightfall Family present couldn’t help but shudder.
They could only feel how ruthless the Grand Elder of the Easton Family was!
"Lord Eden Lee, I came here only under the instigation of Hev Easton and his son, and I meant no offense to you... I hope Lord Eden Lee will forgive me!"
After killing Bless Easton, the Grand Elder of the Easton Family looked at Wyatt Barnes with respect and apologized.
"Lord Eden Lee, I too, like the Grand Elder, had no intention of offending you!"
At the same time, the Second Elder of the Easton Family jumped out to make his stance clear.
Thud! Thud!
As for the two ordinary elders of the Easton Family, they simply knelt on the ground, their bodies trembling, "Lord Eden Lee, spare our lives! Lord Eden Lee, spare our lives!!"
Thus, in the Brightfall Family hall, a surprising scene unfolded.
A young man in purple, looking very youthful, stood there, unmoving like a mountain.
While in front of him, two elderly men with extraordinary bearing bowed with utmost respect, their faces filled with fear and trepidation, resembling ’criminals’ awaiting judgment.
Not far away, two other elders were kneeling and trembling.
"Wyatt Barnes... who exactly is he?"
The ’scene’ before her eyes continuously impacted Leilani Brightfall, making her watery, autumn-like eyes flash with different colors deep within.
At the same time, her curiosity about Wyatt Barnes’ ’background’ grew stronger.
"Wait... Wyatt... Wyatt Barnes? He... is he named Wyatt Barnes?!"
Suddenly, it was as if Leilani Brightfall remembered something, her pupils shrank, and she showed a shocked expression.
"Could it be... could it be that he is... the ’prodigy’ of the Fire Worship Sect?"
Seeing Wyatt Barnes’ capabilities reminded Leilani Brightfall of a person.
A monstrous genius recently risen in the Fire Worship Sect!
