Legend of Wyatt

Chapter 2113: Restoring the True Face

"Just the two of us?"

Upon hearing Wyatt Barnes’ words, Cade Simpson expressed disbelief and continued looking around.

His Divine Sense then extended out, probing every corner of the surroundings, as if he wouldn’t rest until he found someone hidden in the shadows.

Seeing Cade’s actions, Wyatt was speechless internally but didn’t say much more.

His gaze gradually turned cold, and Cade, who was being stared at, felt like he had fallen into an ice cellar, shivered, and then snapped back to reality, looking at Wyatt.

At this moment, he could clearly feel the overwhelming killing intent rising from Wyatt Barnes!

"Who are you? Why did you lure me out?"

Cade asked in a deep voice.

At the same time, he remained vigilant of his surroundings, deeply afraid that someone would emerge from the void on the side and attack him.

The young man in purple before him, whether his figure or voice, seemed somewhat familiar, as if he had seen or heard it somewhere before, but he couldn’t recall it at the moment.

He had no clue at all.

Yet, he could be certain:

He had never met this young man in purple, at least never seen the young man’s ’face’, and he was certain there were no traces of disguise on his face.

Because of this, he was extremely puzzled.

Who on earth was this young man in purple?

Why lure him out?

And why did it feel familiar?

"Who am I?"

Hearing Cade’s inquiry, Wyatt laughed, and his laughter gradually grew louder, eventually turning into hearty laughter, as if he were mad.

"What are you laughing at?!"

Wyatt’s laughter sent chills down Cade’s spine, causing him to shout out in shock: "Kid, do you know who I am? I am from the Myst..."

"I know you are an elder of the Mysterious Buddha Sect, and I also know your father is one of the Four Great Dharma Kings of the Mysterious Buddha Sect, the ’Golden Lion King’!"

Before Cade could finish, Wyatt, having subdued his laughter, mercilessly interrupted, "If what you want to tell me is this nonsense... then there’s no need to say it! Because I know all about your ’background’. Otherwise, why would I lure you out, instead of someone else?"

Toward the end, Wyatt gave Cade a deep look, followed by a mocking smile on his face.

"You... who on earth are you?!"

Cade’s expression changed dramatically, and his tone grew increasingly somber.

At this moment, even though he didn’t think the young man in purple before him was his match, an inexplicable sense of crisis emerged in his heart.

He assumed this sense of crisis was given to him by the young man’s helpers hidden in the dark.

Hence, his Divine Sense remained extended and spread out, continuing to probe the surroundings.

"Cade Simpson, open your eyes wide and see clearly... who am I?!"

Wyatt’s voice suddenly changed, and at the same time, the muscles on his face twisted... In the end, in front of Cade, another face completely replaced his.

And this face was his ’true face’!

Seeing Wyatt’s ’true face’, Cade’s pupils suddenly shrank, showing shock and disbelief. His throat moved like being choked, unable to make a sound for a long time.

Time seemed to freeze at this moment.

When Wyatt revealed his ’true face’, Cade naturally also recognized Wyatt Barnes.

Back then, it was from the person before him that he seized one of the top ten supreme sacred artifacts on the "Top Ten Sacred Artifact List", the ’Demon Sealing Monument’!

If not for being wary that the opponent was a ’Nine-clawed Dragon Warrior’, he would have killed him then!

Of course, he didn’t kill the opponent back then also because he believed that even if the opponent was a ’Nine-clawed Dragon Warrior’, he couldn’t achieve much.

Because, while in the Mansion of Azure Clouds, he had used Divine Sense to probe Wyatt Barnes’ ’talented spirit root’, confirming that Wyatt’s talented spirit root was merely a ’yellow spirit root’.

In his eyes, a mere person with a ’yellow spirit root’, though considered talented in the Lower Domain, was insignificant in the Upper Domain!

He thought Wyatt Barnes posed no threat and was also concerned that killing Wyatt Barnes, who was a ’Nine-clawed Dragon Warrior’, might cause trouble, so he refrained from eliminating Wyatt Barnes.

"Wy... Wyatt Barnes! Ho... how is this possible... how can it be you?!"

After a moment, Cade finally came to his senses.

After regaining his composure, he gasped, then looked at Wyatt with shock, disbelief growing more profound on his face, his eyes flickering with incredulity.

He never could have imagined.

The young man in purple before him, who wielded divine abilities and whose power closely rivaled his, was the same ’Wyatt Barnes’ he met back in the Mansion of Azure Clouds in the Lower Domain!

In the past, in his eyes:

Wyatt Barnes, with his ’yellow spirit root’, and moreover a ’light yellow’ spirit root, even if coming to the Upper Domain from the Lower Domain, at most could step into the ’Earth Saint Realm peak’, finding it difficult to break through to the ’Heavenly Saint Realm’.

Even if he luckily broke through to the ’Heavenly Saint Realm’, it would be challenging for him to progress further.

In the eyes of him, a ’Saint Immortal Realm expert’, even if Wyatt Barnes grew up, he would still be an ’ant’, not worth mentioning, posing no threat at all!

However, he could never have imagined:

In just a year or two, the Junior House Master of the Mansion of Azure Clouds from the Lower Domain, ’Wyatt Barnes’, whom he once perceived as an ant, had grown to such an extent that he was almost his equal in strength!

"Cade Simpson!"

Facing Cade’s surprise, Wyatt Barnes paid no heed. His gaze on Cade turned increasingly cold, and then he spoke in a deep voice:

"That day, after you killed ’Elder Cale’ from my Mansion of Azure Clouds and took my ’Demon Sealing Monument’, you broke your promise and threatened to erase all members of my Mansion of Azure Clouds..."

"At that time, I swore to myself: In this lifetime, if I do not kill you, I vow not to be human!"

"Today, the time has come for me to fulfill that vow."

At the beginning, Wyatt’s voice was extremely cold, but as he continued, the coldness disappeared and his tone eerily calmed down.

However, the murderous intent on his body surged even more fiercely.

In the depths of his eyes, the murderous glint was evident!

"Hahahahaha..."

Hearing Wyatt’s words, while confirming that there was no one else hidden around, Cade couldn’t help but break into wild laughter, laughing arrogantly and wantonly.

Wyatt looked on calmly.

After a moment, Cade stopped laughing and looked at Wyatt disdainfully, "Wyatt Barnes, although I don’t know what ’fortuitous encounter’ you had, rising to your current level with such mediocre martial talent in just one or two years..."

"But do you really think you have me in the palm of your hand now?"

Although Wyatt’s rapid ’rise’ in just one or two years amazed and bewildered Cade.

He understood that what was done was done, and being shocked would not change things.

Thus, he calmed himself down.

Simultaneously, he faintly speculated:

Wyatt, challenging him now, was likely relying on his current strength and his ability to transform into a ’Nine-Clawed Dragon Warrior’.

Judging by Wyatt’s current strength, if he transformed into a ’Nine-Clawed Dragon Warrior’, he might not be able to defeat him, but there was a significant chance of ending the fight in a draw.

Nevertheless, even so, he felt no fear.

He, Cade Simpson, was the son and the only son of the ’Golden Lion King’, one of the four Great Dharma Kings of the Mysterious Buddha Sect.

Besides his own strength, did he have no other means?

"If he transforms into a ’Nine-Clawed Dragon Warrior’, at most, I should end in a draw with him... but what harm is there in playing with him? Once I’m done playing, I’ll use a sound transmission Jade Slip to call ’Elder Truman’ over."

"In the worst-case scenario, even if his strength surpasses mine, and I can’t wait for Elder Truman to arrive... if I’m truly pushed, I can send him to hell with a single ’Taoist Talisman’!"

With this thought, Cade felt utterly reassured and free of any fear towards Wyatt.

"Whether I’ve got you in the palm of my hand or not, you’ll find out soon enough!"

Wyatt spoke calmly, and simultaneously his body quivered violently.

In an instant, vast and magnificent solar Holy Power swept out from Wyatt’s body, transforming into a pair of blazing fiery wings on his back in the blink of an eye.

The wings were extremely lifelike, and the flames burning on them seemed to raise the surrounding air temperature by several degrees.

Wings of the Golden Crow!

This was precisely the movement-based Divine Ability Wyatt had exhibited.

To be precise, it was a ’high-level movement-based Divine Ability’!

"You... you’re the Fire Worship Sect prodigy, ’Wyatt Barnes’?!"

Almost at the moment when Wyatt demonstrated his movement-based Divine Ability, condensing a pair of ’Wings of the Golden Crow’ on his back, Cade, who had been looking at him with disdain, suddenly exclaimed in surprise.

If one listened carefully, they could detect:

Cade’s exclamation contained a hint of trembling.

Seeing the scene before him, and recalling the supportive Divine Ability Wyatt demonstrated earlier to boost his power, Cade couldn’t help but think of the newly famous Fire Worship Sect prodigy sweeping across the entire Upper Domain of the Martial Dao Sacred Land recently:

Wyatt Barnes!

Wyatt Barnes, a newly risen prodigy in the Fire Worship Sect, had not long after his emergence defeated the former number two prodigy ’Bruce’, replacing him as the new ’second prodigy’ of the Fire Worship Sect.

And furthermore, he was ranked 421st on the ’Extreme Saint Ranking’!

Just as Wyatt Barnes from the Fire Worship Sect was gaining fame, news that he had mastered four high-level Divine Abilities swept through the Upper Domain of the Martial Dao Sacred Land like a hurricane, astonishing all sides.

For the older generation of powerhouses, mastering four high-level Divine Abilities was not unusual.

However, as a prodigy of the Fire Worship Sect, Wyatt Barnes was a figure of the younger generation who had mastered four high-level Divine Abilities.

This was extremely rare in the history of the Martial Dao Sacred Land!

As such, details of the ’characteristics’ of Wyatt Barnes’s four high-level Divine Abilities spread throughout the Upper Domain of the Martial Dao Sacred Land, and Cade, being in the Mysterious Buddha Sect, had also heard of it.

"The ’high-level movement-based Divine Ability’ mastered by that Wyatt Barnes of the Fire Worship Sect!"

Therefore, Cade recognized the movement-based Divine Ability Wyatt had just exhibited, because the ’characteristics’ of this Divine Ability were too obvious.
