Legend of Wyatt

Chapter 2104: A Stunning Sword Strike

While Wyatt Barnes was making his inquiry, the Solar Sacred Force he had enhanced through the Divine Ability ’Minor Devouring Technique’ emitted a terrifying aura, sweeping over the Earth Axe Alliance members in front of him.

With Wyatt Barnes’s current cultivation at the peak of the Earth Saint Realm, even the Solar Sacred Force not enhanced by the Minor Devouring Technique was comparable to the Sacred Force of a typical Heavenly Saint Realm martial artist.

Now, with the enhancement of the ’Minor Devouring Technique’, it was akin to the Saint Origin of a Saint Immortal Realm expert!

Because of this, the aura of Wyatt Barnes’s Solar Sacred Force pressing down on the Earth Axe Alliance members made their bodies tremble violently, causing each of them to look as pale as a ghost.

It was evident they were under tremendous pressure.

"Yes, sir."

The weaker members of the Earth Axe Alliance were the first to be unable to bear it, responding in trembling voices.

As they responded, they kept their heads bowed humbly, not daring to meet Wyatt Barnes’s gaze.

The remaining members of the Earth Axe Alliance also responded quickly, not daring to delay after realizing Wyatt Barnes was a Saint Immortal Realm expert.

At this moment, they couldn’t help but feel a surge of resentment against their Alliance Leader.

If they had known the young man in purple was a Saint Immortal Realm expert, even with a hundred times the courage, they wouldn’t have dared to follow him!!

Faced with a group of nearly terrified Earth Axe Alliance members, the next steps were simpler.

No matter what Wyatt Barnes asked, they dared not refuse to answer or deceive him.

"The Earth Axe Alliance Leader is after me?"

Meanwhile, Wyatt Barnes also learned:

The Earth Axe Alliance members in front of him were all sent by their leader ’Unruly Bright’ to keep an eye on him near the Welcome Retreat Inn.

As for why Unruly Bright was targeting him, these Earth Axe Alliance members were clueless.

However, they guessed it might be because he had information about a Saint Immortal Realm Ninth Change expert’s ’treasury.’

Upon hearing their ’guess’, Wyatt Barnes couldn’t help but be speechless, surprised at their wildly imaginative thoughts which led them to such an outrageous conclusion.

"Strange... why would their Earth Axe Alliance leader target me?"

Wyatt Barnes was utterly baffled.

He was absolutely certain:

No one had seen his ’face’ when he killed those two Earth Axe Alliance members outside Sin City.

"Ah... When those two Earth Axe Alliance members died, there was a wave of Taoist Talisman that emerged from their bodies. Could it possibly be related to that?"

Quickly, Wyatt Barnes considered this possibility, as it seemed to be the only explanation.

Upon thinking of this, Wyatt Barnes couldn’t help but inquire of Elder Fire.

"It’s possible!"

And Elder Fire confirmed, "The ’Taoist Talisman’ on them was consumed after they died. This indicates: the two Taoist Talismans can be automatically activated, and the activation condition is... the death of their bearer!"

"From what I can deduce... the two Taoist Talismans probably have a ’mirror image’ transmission ability, conveying the scene of you killing those two Earth Axe Alliance members to the Alliance Leader through the power of the Taoist Talisman in the form of ’pictures.’

Elder Fire said.

"Are there such Taoist Talismans?"

It’s undeniable, Wyatt Barnes was shocked by Elder Fire’s words, finding it hard to believe such ’Taoist Talismans’ existed in the world.

"Certainly."

Faced with Wyatt Barnes’s question, Elder Fire gave another very affirmative response, leaving Wyatt Barnes with no choice but to trust.

Meanwhile, Wyatt Barnes pondered, "It seems, upon returning to Sin City, I should learn more about the various ’Taoist Talismans’ of the Upper Domain of the Martial Dao Sacred Land."

"Logically, even if I killed those two Earth Axe Alliance members, the Alliance Leader shouldn’t have needed to create such a stir..."

"Could it be because of that ’Thousand-Wrinkle Sacred Sword’?!"

After some guessing, Wyatt Barnes recalled the ’Thousand-Wrinkle Sacred Sword’ he found in the Storage Ring of one of the Earth Axe Alliance members.

The ’Thousand-Wrinkle Sacred Sword’ came from the old man that had been killed by two Earth Axe Alliance members.

With this thought, Wyatt Barnes became increasingly confident in his deduction.

"Your Earth Axe Alliance leader, what’s his cultivation? Besides the leader, what cultivation do the other higher-ups have?"

Following this, Wyatt Barnes looked once again at the group of Earth Axe Alliance members, asking in a deep voice.

From the group of Earth Axe Alliance members, Wyatt Barnes also learned:

Among the Earth Axe Alliance, the leader ’Unruly Bright’ was the strongest, being at the ’Saint Immortal Realm Third Change,’ also the only ’Saint Immortal Third Change expert’ within the alliance.

Additionally, Unruly Bright’s strength, even among all ’Saint Immortal Realm Third Change experts’ in the Upper Domain of Martial Dao Sacred Land, although not the strongest, could easily rank in the upper-middle tier.

Both being ’Saint Immortal Third Change experts’:

Recently, Bruce had been defeated by him in the Fire Worship Sect. Before being defeated, Bruce ranked ’four hundred twenty-first’ on the ’Extreme Saint Ranking.’

While Unruly Bright of the Earth Axe Alliance ranked ’two hundred sixty-sixth’ on the ’Extreme Saint Ranking.’

So, a difference between the two can also be seen!

"The Earth Axe Alliance has only one ’Saint Immortal Third Change expert’?"

Indeed, even knowing Unruly Bright’s strength far surpassed Bruce’s, Wyatt Barnes showed no fear.

With his current power, using ’Splendid Fairy Sword’, as long as Unruly Bright wasn’t beyond a ’Saint Immortal Fourth Change,’ it would only take an instant for Wyatt Barnes to kill him!

The Earth Axe Alliance has only one Saint Immortal Third Change ’Spirit Eye Change’ in Unruly Bright.

In other words:

In the entire Earth Axe Alliance, besides Unruly Bright, no one could capture the ’Splendid Fairy Sword’ propelled by the Supreme Heart Sword’s third realm swordsmanship technique.

As for Unruly Bright, he might barely catch a glimpse of the ’Splendid Fairy Sword’.

But, by then, he would already be a dead man!

"You nine... do you want to live or die?"

Wyatt Barnes looked at the nine members of the Earth Axe Alliance before him and asked calmly, his tone indifferent and giving away no emotion.

"Sir, I want to live!"

"Sir, I want to live too!"

...

Hearing Wyatt Barnes’ words, the nine members of the Earth Axe Alliance quickly expressed their stance, unanimously replying to Wyatt.

Are you kidding!

Given the chance to live, who would want to die?

"Lead the way, take me to the ’Earth Axe Alliance’!"

Wyatt Barnes spoke again, his tone still calm, yet deep in his eyes was a rising killing intent.

He was clearly truly angry and intended to go and kill them personally!

Hiss! Hiss! Hiss! Hiss! Hiss!

...

Upon hearing Wyatt Barnes’ words, the nine members of the Earth Axe Alliance involuntarily inhaled a breath of cold air.

From the words of this youth in purple, he actually intended to go to their ’Earth Axe Alliance’?

Wasn’t this walking into a trap, courting death?

But no matter how they looked at him, they didn’t think the youth in purple before them was someone who would court death.

Thus, there was only one possibility:

"This sir probably isn’t afraid of the Alliance Leader..."

At this thought, the hearts of the nine Earth Axe Alliance members shook, their faces displaying bitter smiles.

Alliance Leader, just what kind of people have you provoked?

They all believed that when the person before them asked about the cultivation of the high-level members of the Earth Axe Alliance, it definitely wasn’t a casual inquiry...

He was probing, probing the ’bottom line’ of the Earth Axe Alliance!

The nine members of the Earth Axe Alliance naturally didn’t dare defy Wyatt Barnes and immediately led him out of the forest, heading back towards the direction of ’Sin City’.

"Sir... before we entered the forest just now, I used a ’communication jade slip’."

Shortly after leaving the forest, an Earth Axe Alliance member hesitantly said to Wyatt Barnes, "Now, our Alliance Leader is probably on his way here."

"Here he comes!"

Almost at the moment this Earth Axe Alliance member’s voice fell, Wyatt Barnes seemed to sense something, suddenly narrowing his eyes as he looked into the distance towards the direction of Sin City.

Whoosh!!

Accompanied by a sharp and increasingly loud whistling wind, Wyatt Barnes also saw a figure rapidly approaching them at an incredible speed.

The speed of the figure’s owner was extremely fast, even faster than a ’second stage Saint Immortal’ could manage.

In an instant, a figure appeared out of nowhere in front of the group of Earth Axe Alliance members.

The appearance of this figure immediately uplifted the spirits of the group of Earth Axe Alliance members, who then bowed and saluted in unison, "Alliance Leader!"

The Alliance Leader of the Earth Axe Alliance, Unruly Bright!

At the same time, Wyatt Barnes confirmed the identity of the newcomer and began to scrutinize him.

A middle-aged man of average build and ordinary appearance, the kind of person who would be lost in a crowd.

However, after Unruly Bright appeared, he ignored the group of Earth Axe Alliance members and instead immediately looked at Wyatt Barnes, his gaze as sharp as a knife.

Simply because:

This youth in purple was the one he had seen in a vision using the ’Mother Mirror Talisman’, who had killed his subordinates and taken the storage ring containing the ’Thousand Pattern Saint Sword’.

"You..."

Just as Unruly Bright was about to coldly speak to Wyatt Barnes, wanting to say something to him.

Swish!!

An ephemeral sword whistle briefly appeared by the ears of Unruly Bright and the group of Earth Axe Alliance members.

As Unruly Bright’s pupils shrank, he saw a swift sword light rushing towards him with such speed that he was unable to evade!

No!

Facing this sword light, there was no evading; he couldn’t even react!

Thud!

In the ears of the Earth Axe Alliance members, this soft sound occurred almost simultaneously with the brief sword whistle, causing their hearts to tremble twice in quick succession.

And in the next moment, they witnessed a scene they would never forget in their lifetime:

The Alliance Leader of their Earth Axe Alliance, ’Unruly Bright’, a third-stage Saint Immortal ranked 266th on the ’Extreme Saint Ranking’...

Was pierced through the forehead with a single sword, killed outright!

"Blue Spirit Root!"

In a flash, Wyatt Barnes moved to Unruly Bright’s corpse, grabbing it with glowing eyes, his heart filled with excitement.
