Chapter 717: Wyatt Barnes’s Guess

Chapter 717: Chapter 717: Wyatt Barnes’s Guess

"Wyatt’s progress is monstrous..."

Brian Graham sighed, standing amongst a group from the Graham Clan.

However, a sincere smile quickly surfaced on his face.

He was happy for Wyatt Barnes’s achievements, as his friend.

Henni Graham, standing not far from Brian, his eyes originally filled with fear when looking at Wyatt, started to calm down only after Wyatt’s figure completely disappeared.

"We must not become enemies with Wyatt Barnes if we can’t become his friends!"

The clan chief of the Nicholson Clan spoke with a heavy tone.

Serenade Nicholson, the First young master of the Nicholson Clan standing by, nodded his head in deep agreement.

As for Adrian Nicholson, the second young master of the Nicholson Clan standing on the other side, he was shaking with fear. He never imagined that Wyatt Barnes could win the honor of being the ’Champion’ in the Dynasty Martial Competition.

The clan chief of the Nicholson Clan’s words rapidly spread to the seven superior spectators, resonating with the influential figures of the Great Turdo Dynasty.

Soon, those words continued to spread and they were approved by everyone.

"Starting from today, the previously unknown ’Wyatt Barnes’ will become a celebrity in our Great Turdo Dynasty!"

"A youth from the Empire, overpowering many elite youths of our Great Turdo Dynasty, his astonishing abilities are worthy of going down in history."

"It seems the Black Stone Empire is indeed a good place... I’ll go there in a few days. Maybe, I might even move my entire family there."

...

Although the audience around the Prisoner Battle Arena began to disperse, their discussions did not stop.

Most of them were talking about Wyatt Barnes.

A terrifyingly young man, who won the title ’Champion’ in today’s Dynasty Martial Competition, shocked everyone.

As the crowd dispersed from the Prisoner Battle Arena, not long after the entire capital of the Great Turdo Dynasty was filled with news and stories about ’Wyatt Barnes’.

Almost everyone knew that the person who had won the ’Champion’ title in the Dynasty Martial Competition held by the Great Turdo Dynasty was a young powerhouse from the Black Stone Empire.

This young talent, who appeared to be around twenty-five years old, was alarmingly young.

Moreover, his name was ’Wyatt Barnes’!

While the capital of the Great Turdo Dynasty was buzzing about Wyatt Barnes, Wyatt himself was comfortably drinking tea in a house in the Romero Clan.

"That stele is something I stumbled upon back in my hometown..."

In response to Taoi Romero, Winnie Romero, and Elder Kane’s questions, Wyatt did not hide much and explained the origin of the Demon Sealing Monument.

Of course, he did not mention the powerful spirit that emerged from the Demon Sealing Monument and attacked him.

The strength of that spirit exceeded even the Reincarnation Martial Emperor.

He was lucky to have survived because his soul was special and did not belong to this world.

His soul not belonging to this world was Wyatt’s biggest secret. Even his parents and his two fiancées didn’t know this.

Hence, Wyatt would not reveal anything related to this secret.

Although ’there are no secrets this world cannot reveal’, Wyatt was certain that as long as he didn’t spill the secret himself, no second person would ever know.

That’s why he never planned to share this secret with anyone.

"So, you kept it because the text on this stele was unique?"

Elder Kane asked.

Wyatt nodded, then immediately asked: "Elder Kane, you are knowledgeable and talented, but I wonder if you recognize the text on this Demon Sealing Monument."

As soon as Wyatt finished speaking, the Demon Sealing Monument, which was cracked nearly in half, appeared next to him, floating in the air.

Upon hearing this, Elder Kane seriously examined the Demon Sealing Monument.

After a while, he shook his head, "I don’t recognize it."

Then, Wyatt looked at Taoi Romero and Winnie Romero. They both shook their heads, indicating they did not recognize it.

"Sigh... It seems I will have to go ’outside territory’ and look for someone who can recognize these words."

Wyatt pretended to sigh.

Elder Kane nodded, "’Outside territory’ is vast and infinitely wide. There might be learned men there who can recognize these words... Also, since this monument could suppress Marshall Tyler who had used a ’secret technique’, it’s definitely not an ordinary object. It might bring you lots of surprises in the future."

"I’d be fine with surprises, what worries me are the shocks."

Wyatt shook his head, his gaze fixed on the Demon Sealing Monument with intricate emotions.

Although he didn’t know the origin of the Demon Sealing Monument, his encounter it in the Death Marshland made him realize it was not to be underestimated.

The Demon Sealing Monument was capable of trapping such a powerful spirit within, and if he hadn’t released that spirit, the spirit might still be suppressed inside.

"If the Demon Sealing Monument can suppress a spirit stronger than the Reincarnation Martial Emperor’s, it’s definitely not an ordinary object."

Wyatt was absolutely certain of this.

"This monument is not simple."

Taoi Romero, who had kept silent so far, finally spoke up. In his eyes, fear was clearly visible.

"Dad, did you figure something out?"

Winnie Romero asked curiously.

Suddenly, Wyatt Barnes and Elder Kane both turned their attention to Taoi Romero.

"No."

Taoi shook his head.

"Then you just..."

Winnie Romero was taken aback.

"Intuition."

Taoi replied again.

Wyatt Barnes was left speechless. He initially though Taoi had seen something but was disappointed when he merely blurted the word "intuition."

"Uncle Romero, Winnie, Elder Kane... I plan to leave the Capital City tomorrow."

Suddenly, as if Wyatt Barnes had remembered something, he spoke to the three of them.

"Brother Barnes, in half a year we are heading to the ’Northern Desert’ to meet up with other young talents from the nine major dynasties for the ’Decennial Martial Arts Gathering’... why do you want to leave at this time?"

Winnie Romero asked in confusion: "Isn’t it better to stay in the Capital City for these six months to cultivate and improve?"

Taoi and Elder Kane nodded, agreeing with Winnie’s words.

"Winnie, if nothing else, staying in the Capital City wouldn’t matter... However, I am leaving the Capital City this time to take care of some matters."

As Wyatt said this, a glint of cold flashed through his pupils.

At this moment, Wyatt Barnes seemed like a coiled viper, ready to strike and kill people at any moment.

Winnie and the other two could perceive the murderous intent contained in Wyatt’s words. Unable to resist, Winnie asked, "Brother Barnes, can you tell me?"

Seeing the hopeful look in Winnie’s eyes, Wyatt, who had originally intended not to speak, sighed and then recounted the story of the Seven Stars Sword Sect’s destruction several years ago.

"The Seven Stars Sword Sect? Is that the Sect from the Green Forest Royal Country you mentioned back in Phoenix Perch City?"

Winnie was taken aback.

"Yes."

Wyatt nodded, his eyes somehow stained with a trace of crimson, and his breath began to quicken.

At this moment, he couldn’t help but remember the scenes that had unfolded on the Heavenly Pivot Peak of the Seven Stars Sword Sect years ago...

Back then, the powerful figures from the Three Sects of Green Forest descended upon the Seven Stars Sword Sect and slaughtered its people. The Heavenly Pivot Peak was filled with rivers of blood and mountains of corpses.

Thinking of the sacrifices made by the senior members of the Seven Stars Sword Sect in order to let him escape, Wyatt took a deep breath and closed his eyes in pain.

Originally, he had buried this hatred deep in his heart, but today, he consciously brought it back to mind.

This was because he now had the ability to take revenge.

"Brother Barnes, I want to go back with you."

Winnie told Wyatt.

"Winnie, this is my personal matter, you..."

Wyatt knew Winnie meant well, but he still rejected her. With his current strength, it was not difficult to deal with the Three Sects of Green Forest.

However, before Wyatt could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Winnie, "Brother Barnes, there’s nothing for me to do at home anyway, so let me go with you."

"It would be good for me to clear my mind."

Before Wyatt could respond, Taoi spoke, "I will go with you too."

"Haha... If the Young Master goes, I naturally have to go as well."

Elder Kane also added.

Wyatt smiled bitterly.

He knew that this matter was now settled.

Just as Wyatt was wondering why Taoi would voluntarily accompany him, Taoi spoke again.

"Wyatt boy, both Winnie and I will accompany you back this time, and we can also pay a visit to your parents... It’s a prelude to meeting between in-laws."

"Dad, what are you talking about?"

Upon hearing Taoi’s words, Winnie’s face turned beet red as if she could bleed.

Wyatt then finally understood Taoi’s reason for accompanying him—it was because of his parents. He knew something was amiss.

"Uncle Romero, Winnie, Elder Kane... I’ll return and rest first."

Wyatt bid the three of them farewell and hurriedly escaped.

Upon returning to his courtyard, Wyatt locked himself in his room and once again took out the ’Demon Sealing Monument’, studying it carefully. "I always feel that the black flame mark that appeared on Marshall Tyler’s forehead was not formed by any ’secret method’..."

"What secret method can enable a martial artist in the Nineth Layer of Enter Void Realm to enhance his Origin Force and soul to the ’Fourth Layer of Cave Void Realm’ in a short time? The most outrageous part is, the only side effect is losing his sanity during the use of the ’secret method’."

"Can this even be considered a side effect?"

Even if he was beaten to death, Wyatt would not believe it.

"Moreover, when I first took out the Demon Sealing Monument, Marshall, who supposedly lost his sanity from the ’secret method’, suddenly spoke... The voice was a gloomy and aged voice, not Marshall’s own voice!"

"Could it be... there is another soul inside Marshall’s body? And at a critical moment, it can control Marshall’s body and assist him against his enemies?"
