Legend of Wyatt
Chapter 288: Anxious as Flames

Chapter 288: Chapter 288: Anxious as Flames

Ever since the two little pythons left that day, Wyatt Barnes had been cultivating actively in Giovanni Stone’s cave, never once leaving Heavenly Authority Peak...

Of course, he was mainly worried that the two little ones would not be able to find him when they returned.

Luckily, he had acquired enough meat during his previous visit to the trading hall to last him several months.

How time flies like a white pony crossing a chasm.

Before he knew it, two months had passed.

Inside the stone cave, on the stone platform.

There sat Wyatt, cultivating quietly...

He had no idea how long he’d been there.

Suddenly.

Wyatt opened his eyes, his irises whirling like swirling lights, gleaming brilliantly.

"I’m just a little bit off from breaking through to the ’Original Pill Realm Fifth Stage’!"

A smile crept up the corners of Wyatt’s mouth.

Coming back to his senses, he heaved a sigh of loss, "Those two lads, haven’t they settled in the primeval forest? They’ve been gone for two months... It seems I should find some time to go and search for them in the primeval forest."

Swiftly, Wyatt’s gaze fell again on his hands.

Now, his hands, although as smooth as ever, were no longer as pale as before, thanks to the two months he’d spent sunbathing on top of Heavenly Authority Peak.

His skin had finally regained its normal color.

Wyatt, who was now a bit more mature than before, had turned twenty.

"It’s been two months... it’s time to check on Jovie Lee and Keer."

Thinking of Jovie Lee and Keer made Wyatt smile. He stood up and left the cave.

Soon, Wyatt left the peak and arrived near the trading hall.

"Wyatt Barnes!"

Suddenly, Wyatt heard an urgent call.

Looking in the direction of the voice.

A disciple from Heavenly Authority Peak was coming from afar.

Wyatt frowned, his expression was a bit grave. Could this be another disciple sent by Elder Woody Dunn?

"Wyatt, you finally show up."

Wyatt quickly realized that this Heavenly Authority Peak disciple didn’t seem to be somebody sent by Woody Dunn, and he appeared more relieved after seeing Wyatt.

"Who are you?"

Wyatt asked in confusion, not recognizing this disciple.

The disciple was a slim young man who replied, "I am a friend of Chaim Cruz."

Chaim Cruz?

Upon hearing the young man’s words, Wyatt’s eyes brightened, his frown smoothed into a gentle smile, "A friend of Chaim is a friend of mine. What’s your name?"

Chaim was one of the two friends he made in the primeval forest.

A bold and upright young man.

After their experience in the forest, Wyatt respected Chaim as a true friend.

"My name is Spring Montes... Wyatt, you should come with me and check on Chaim. He came to look for you a month ago... We waited for you for half a month, but you never showed up, so he returned to ’Star Measurement Peak’."

Spring sighed, a trace of sadness crossing his face.

Seeing Spring’s look, Wyatt’s heart clenched, "What? Has something happened to Chaim?"

The first thing that came to Wyatt’s mind was the experience in the primeval forest two months ago, where Dariel Burton, one of the members of their group along with Leah Sykes and Chaim, had been present.

Could it be that Dariel took revenge on Chaim with his older brother’s help?

Spring nodded, a cruel sadness flickering in his eyes.

"Take me to Chaim! What on earth happened?"

Wyatt urged Spring to lead the way, quickly exiting to find out what had happened, his face filled with anxiety.

Two months ago, in the primeval forest, Chaim had risked his life to fight for a chance for him...

From that moment, he’d considered Chaim a ’friend for life’!

Now, hearing that something happened to Chaim, his heart was in flames.

At the same time, he desperately wanted to know what had happened to Chaim...

Swoosh!

Just as Wyatt and Spring were about to step onto the rope bridge, a figure as fast as the wind blocked their path.

This figure was a young man, about twenty-five years old, with a refined appearance but sharp eyes.

"Brother White Don!"

Upon seeing this young man, Spring couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise.

At this point, many Heavenly Authority Peak disciples who saw this scene gathered around.

"It’s Wyatt Barnes!"

"He finally showed up!"

"I thought he’d been hiding since he knew that Brother White Don was looking for him."

"Brother White Don has been looking for him for over a month, and he’s finally come out."

...

The crowd of Heavenly Authority Peak disciples gathered around, discussing excitedly.

"Scram!"

Wyatt’s eyes flared with a touch of crimson as he glared at the young man blocking the way and barked coldly.

Wyatt’s thoughts were entirely focused on Chaim now. He urgently wanted to see Chaim and find out what had happened to him.

"Arrogant!"

"Wyatt Barnes is so bad-ass. He flat out told Senior Brother White Don to ’scram’!"

"Does he not know who Senior Brother White Don is? White Don is not the same as ’Kellen Mullins’ from two months ago."

"Senior Brother White’s face has changed. This Wyatt Barnes is definitely in for trouble."

"I don’t know where he gets his courage from. Even if he has killed two fourth-level Original Pill Realm practitioners, so what? Senior Brother White Don is a well-known outer sect disciple of our Heavenly Authority Peak, a sixth-level existence in the Original Pill Realm."

...

A group of Heavenly Authority Peak disciples looked towards Wyatt Barnes with pity in their eyes.

True, Wyatt Barnes had astonished them all two months ago, yet in their view, no matter how invincible Wyatt Barnes was, he was still a fourth-level martial artist in the Original Pill Realm... At most, he was equivalent to the fifth level in the same realm.

When faced with a sixth-level martial artist of the Original Pill Realm, all he has is to be dominated!

The color drained from White Don’s face.

On Heavenly Authority Peak, there was yet to be an outer disciple who dared to be so arrogant in front of him...

"Wyatt Barnes, don’t tell me you think I’m as useless as that waste of space, Kellen Mullins?"

White Don looked at Wyatt Barnes, a cruel smirk lifting the corners of his mouth, eyes filled with cold cruelty, as he fixed his gaze on Wyatt Barnes.

Wyatt Barnes was not scared at all. He met White Don’s gaze and said in a deep voice, "Your purpose in seeking me is the same as Kellen Mullins’?"

White Don’s cold smirk widened, "Knowing is good... If you’re smart, you’ll hand over the stuff right away! Otherwise, I’m not like that useless Kellen Mullins."

Upon hearing White Don’s words, Wyatt Barnes chuckled, his face cold, "Is that right? Then you must dare to accept my ’Life and Death Stage challenge’?"

Wyatt Barnes hadn’t expected that ’Woody Dunn’ would be so incessantly nagging!

First, he sent ’Kellen Mullins’, now he sent ’White Don’.

But he was in a hurry to meet Chaim Cruz now and didn’t have time to waste with White Don. He brought up the ’Life and Death Stage’ straightaway, hoping the other party would back off in face of difficulty!

Although the other party was at the sixth level of the Original Pill Realm, he was not afraid!

"You, want to challenge me to ’Life and Death Stage’?"

Upon hearing Wyatt Barnes’s words, White Don was clearly taken aback.

True, he had heard about Wyatt Barnes scaring away Kellen Mullins with the ’Life and Death Stage’ challenge two months ago.

But from his perspective.

That’s because Kellen Mullins is a coward!

Even if this Wyatt Barnes is more mysterious, with more cunning methods, he’s still just a fourth-level martial artist in the Original Pill Realm...

In the eyes of him, a sixth-level martial artist of the Original Pill Realm, a fourth-level practitioner is no different from ants!

Killing Wyatt Barnes would be as simple as cutting down grass.

Whoosh!

Wyatt Barnes’s words stupefied onlookers from Heavenly Authority Peak.

They recovered after a moment of silence.

"Am I hearing this correctly? Wyatt Barnes wants to challenge Senior Brother White Don on the ’Life and Death Stage’? "

"Is he seeking death?"

...

A group of Heavenly Authority Peak disciples were shocked by Wyatt Barnes’s words.

From their perspective.

A fourth-level Original Pill Realm practitioner, no matter how brilliant his methods are, he could not possibly defeat a ’sixth-level Original Pill Realm practitioner’.

There is a vast difference of power equivalent to twenty ancient elephants between the two!

Twenty ancient elephant’s strength! That is an insurmountable chasm...

"So, you dare to stop me, but not to accept my ’Life and Death Stage’ challenge?"

Wyatt Barnes coldly stared at White Don and sarcastically said, "If you’re scared, get the hell out of my way. I have important things to do and no time to waste with you."

"What did you say? You’re saying... I’m scared?"

White Don burst into laughter at Wyatt Barnes’s words, a face of unrestrained mirth, "Wyatt Barnes, if you’re seeking death, then I’ll grant it! I accept your challenge and will fight you on the ’Life and Death Stage’. Tell me, do we go there directly now, or should you set a time... I can give you time to settle your affairs."

"Tomorrow at noon, on the Life and Death stage, we shall have an all-out fight. Until then, neither party may give up!"

Wyatt Barnes’s eyes were filled with murderous intent, "Now, get out of my way!"

"Fine, tomorrow at noon on the Life and Death Stage, I’ll be waiting for you! Just hope by then, you won’t be too terrified to show up."

White Don stepped aside, a slight smile playing on his lips.

Now that he had achieved his objective, he was extremely satisfied.

In his view, as long as he could force Wyatt Barnes into a desperate corner, he wouldn’t have to worry about Wyatt Barnes not giving up Elder Woody Dunn’s desired item.

By then, he would receive a generous ’reward’ from Elder Woody Dunn.

"I’m more worried that you won’t dare to show up."

With a sense of urgency, Wyatt Barnes, accompanied by Spring Montes, strode out. Hearing White Don’s words, he couldn’t help but chuckle in response.

"Spring Montes, let’s go! Lead me to Chaim."

Wyatt Barnes’s tone was extremely urgent as his figure flashed and crossed the rope bridge, heading towards the Heavenly Pivot Peak.

"Wyatt Barnes, you’re too impulsive... That White Don is a renowned outer sect disciple of our Heavenly Authority Peak, a formidable existence at the sixth level of the Original Pill Realm."

Spring Montes followed Wyatt Barnes with a wry smile on his face.

He never expected that Wyatt Barnes would challenge White Don to a life-or-death battle on the ’Life and Death Stage’.

He, like the group of Heavenly Authority Peak disciples, didn’t have high hopes for Wyatt Barnes.

Meanwhile, the news that ’Wyatt Barnes’ had challenged ’White Don’ to a battle on the Life and Death Stage the following day and that White Don had accepted... began to spread across Heavenly Authority Peak.

In no time, the entire Heavenly Authority Peak was boiling over!

"Two months ago, I was in seclusion, and missed that Life and Death Stage fight. I must not miss it this time."

"It’s truly something to look forward to, one is our strange beast of Heavenly Authority Peak and the other is a renowned sixth-level outer sect disciple of our Heavenly Authority Peak."
