Chapter 731: Chapter 731: Dust Settles

Wyatt Barnes glanced at the two kneeling members of the Mysterious Lotus Valley, saying dismissively, "Our Seven-Star Sword Sect does not accept traitors...Today, you have betrayed the Mysterious Lotus Valley. Tomorrow, you could betray our Seven-Star Sword Sect too."

"Lord Wyatt Barnes!"

Just when Wyatt thought the two Mysterious Lotus Valley disciples would retreat knowing the difficulty, they persisted, piercing their fingers, and a drop of blood shot up into the sky.

"I swear on my own blood, as long as Lord Wyatt Barnes welcomes me into the Seven-Star Sword Sect, I will share destiny with the Seven-Star Sword Sect, never betraying it! If I ever break this oath, I am willing to be killed by the ’Nine-Nine Thunder Tribulation’!"

The two Mysterious Lotus Valley disciples made their vows in unison.

At that moment, deafening thunder rumbled across the sky, clearly the ’Nine-Nine Thunder Tribulation’ was validating their blood oath.

"Hmm?"

Wyatt Barnes raised his brow, the scene before him was unexpected.

He had not imagined that these two Mysterious Lotus Valley disciples would be so persistent, even swearing on the ’Nine-Nine Thunder Tribulation’. For a moment, he couldn’t help but hesitate.

To be honest, he instinctively rejected these Mysterious Lotus Valley disciples. Not for anything else but his hatred for the Mysterious Lotus Valley.

"Jadey Inky, what do you think?"

Wyatt Barnes looked at Jadey Inky and asked.

For the Seven-Star Sword Sect, he was just a passer-by. Jadey Inky was the future leader of the Seven-Star Sword Sect, its entire fate rested on him.

Jadey Inky pondered, "Brother Wyatt, since they have already sworn under the Nine-Nine Thunder Tribulation, I doubt they will double-cross our Seven-Star Sword Sect. At present, our sect is in need of people while on the path to revival, I think they can be accepted as disciples."

"Alright, then we shall do as you suggest."

Wyatt Barnes nodded.

"Thank you, Lord Jadey Inky."

The two Mysterious Lotus Valley disciples quickly thanked him.

"Hmph!"

Yet, Wyatt’s cold snort made them tense.

"Remember, he is the Sect Leader of our Seven-Star Sword Sect."

During their tense moment, Wyatt commented indifferently.

"Thank you, Sect Leader!"

Upon hearing this, the disciples felt curious why Wyatt wasn’t the Sect Leader of Seven-Star Sword Sect but they did not dare to slack off and hurriedly thanked Jadey Inky.

"Brother Wyatt, I believe you are better suited for the position of Sect Leader."

Jadey Inky gave a bitter smile, "I am only at the initial stages of Void Realm, how can I bear such a heavy responsibility?"

"With Peak Master Kinsley Cooper and Elder Giant Bird assisting you, how could you not bear it?"

Wyatt Barnes was adamant, "This decision is final... You are Sect Leader Foxsong’s disciple and his chosen successor. That position is yours alone!"

"As for me... I will not stay in the Royal Country in the future."

Wyatt added on in the end.

"Jadey Inky, the burden of the Seven-Star Sword Sect relies on you... I hope you won’t disappoint your master."

Wyatt said earnestly to Jadey Inky.

"Brother Wyatt, don’t worry, I will give it my all!"

Jadey Inky assured swiftly.

"Lord Wyatt, Jadey Inky, Sect Leader, we are willing to join the Seven-Star Sword Sect!"

At that moment, the remaining disciples of the Mysterious Lotus Valley, seeing the acceptance of their peers after making their vows, hurriedly knelt down and made their own ’Nine-Nine Thunder Tribulation’ vows.

The content of their oaths hardly deviated from those of the previous two disciples.

The sky filled with roaring thunder, deafening to the ears.

Although, making such vows meant they could never betray the Seven-Star Sword Sect and that their fates are tied, they did not regret it.

When they joined the Royal Three Sects before, it was mostly to seek a strong support and stand out. Now, with the Royal Three Sects gone, a stronger seven-star Sword Sect stood before them.

So, they chose to join the Seven-Star Sword Sect, aiming for a better future.

"Jadey Inky, handle the rest... Peak Master Kinsley Cooper, Elder Bird, Jadey Inky is still young, please give him more guidance in the future."

Wyatt Barnes told Jadey, then turned to Kinsley Cooper and Elder Bird.

Both Kinsley Cooper and Elder Bird nodded in agreement.

"Rest ensured, Jadey Inky is the Sect Leader of the Seven-Star Sword Sect, and I am his uncle. I will do my best to assist him in becoming a capable Sect Leader."

Kinsley Cooper assured.

"Hmm."

Wyatt nodded and then added, "In that case, we shall take our leave."

"Brother Wyatt, where are you going?"

Upon hearing Wyatt’s departure, Jadey Inky couldn’t help but ask.

"I will scour the surroundings to see if there are remnants of the Mysterious Lotus Valley...Then, I will make a trip back home. When I return from home, I will go to our Seven-Star Sword Sect’s base."

Wyatt Barnes said.

"Brother, the nine Spiritual Caves of our Seven Stars Sword Clan’s base have all been destroyed. I’m afraid it will take a long time to accumulate the inner energy of heaven and earth again... Shouldn’t we move our base to the Mysterious Lotus Valley, as well as the bases that originally belonged to the Returning Origin Sect and the Snow Moon Sect?"

Jadey Inky couldn’t help but ask.

"No need."

Wyatt Barnes shook his head, "Our Seven Stars Sword Clan’s base is still in the seven Sword Peaks... Your job is to bring them all back. Plus, when you return, call back our Brother Sonny Clark and all the other Seven Stars Sword Clan members who are scattered outside."

"Once I return from my hometown, I’ll try to transfer the remaining Spiritual Caves of the Mysterious Lotus Valley, as well as those in the bases originally belonging to the Returning Origin Sect and Snow Moon Sect, to our Seven Stars Sword Clan’s base."

Wyatt Barnes finished all in one breath.

Transfer the Spiritual Caves?

Not only did Wyatt Barnes’ words surprise Jadey Inky, Kinsley Cooper, and Elder Giant Bird, along with a group of newly initiated members of the Seven Stars Sword Clan, but even Taoi Romero, Winnie Romero, and Elder Kane couldn’t help but be taken aback.

"Brother, can you really transfer the Spiritual Caves?"

Jadey Inky took a deep breath and asked involuntarily.

In his view, this was simply unthinkable.

"Hmm."

Wyatt Barnes nodded and then, with a flicker of his eyes, moved quickly to collect the Storage Rings from the bodies of the previous Mysterious Lotus Sect Leader ’Khai Dragonsmith’, The Returning Origin Sect Leader ’Yousef Wright’, and the Snow Moon Sect Leader ’Rhett Bell’.

After identifying the blood owner, he took out the ’Origin-gathering Beads’ from inside, eighteen in total.

"I really didn’t expect that Dragonsmith could find so many ’Origin-gathering Beads’... these beads, even in the ’outside territory’, are considered rare items."

After Wyatt had collected the Origin-gathering Beads, he removed the ownership of the three Storage Rings and threw them to Jadey Inky, "You can collect the remaining spoils... we are leaving first."

After Wyatt had finished speaking, he greeted Taoi Romero’s group and they soared into the air, circling around the Mysterious Lotus Valley.

Following some clues, they eliminated some remnants that had just left the Mysterious Lotus Valley, and the four continued southward.

Whoosh!

A giant sword flew across the sky, carrying the four of Wyatt, covering a day’s journey, and arrived above the Imperial City of the Crimson Heaven Kingdom.

Wyatt silently looked down at the city beneath his feet.

Though in Wyatt’s eyes who had now seen the world, the Imperial City of the Crimson Heaven Kingdom was no different from a small town in the Great Turdo Dynasty, but it was this small town that stirred waves of emotions in his heart. "It’s the homecoming that makes one’s heart timid; that’s exactly what I’m feeling now"

"Four years... I wonder how my parents are doing."

With excited emotions, the four of Wyatt landed outside the Imperial City.

They didn’t fly directly in.

According to Winnie Romero, this would allow them to blend in better. Of course, the reason she thought this way is because this was Wyatt’s hometown.

She wanted to understand Wyatt’s hometown.

Aside from Wyatt, who was emotionally near to his hometown and didn’t perceive the deep meaning in Winnie’s words, both Taoi Romero and Elder Kane guessed Winnie’s thoughts.

Especially Elder Kane, with his weird gaze, made Winnie blush with embarrassment. She frequently glared at Elder Kane, as if to threaten him not to say it out loud.

Imperial City of Crimson Heaven Kingdom, divided into outer city and inner city.

Walking into the outer city and feeling the lively atmosphere of the streets, Wyatt felt as if he was back to the time when he had just left Aurora City and came to the Imperial City.

It has to be said that Wyatt and the others were lucky. After eating in the outer city, the gates of the inner city had slowly opened.

Of course, even if the inner city had not opened, they could have flown in directly.

However, that feeling is completely different from walking in.

In a short while, Wyatt and the others slowly walked into the inner city.

"Young Master, look, look... goodness, I’ve never seen such a beautiful woman in my life. Although, I haven’t seen our city’s number one beauty, ’Princess Irene’, I can assure you, she’s certainly not inferior to Princess Irene!"

In the distance, a servant following a richly-dressed young man riding a tall horse was staring at Wyatt and his companions approaching from afar, his eyes full of excitement.

To be precise, he was staring at Winnie Romero.

Winnie Romero was not wearing a veil as before. Her extraordinary beauty attracted many fiery gazes all the way.

However, because of the extraordinary auroras that Wyatt Barnes, Taoi Romero, and Elder Kane, who were walking with Winnie, radiated invisibly, it kept flirtatious butterflies at a distance.

"Hmm?"

The well-dressed youth heard the words, followed the servant’s gaze and looked. As soon as he saw her, he couldn’t take his eyes off her.

God!

Can there really be such a beautiful woman in this world?

Words can’t describe the astonishing beauty of the woman in front of him.

Her perfection quickened his heartbeat.

A strong desire to possess welled up in his heart.

Wyatt Barnes and Winnie Romero walked side by side, talking and laughing.

"Miss."

An abrupt voice disrupted the merry conversation between Wyatt Barnes and Winnie Romero.

Immediately after, a tall horse blocked the front of Wyatt Barnes and Winnie Romero. The richly-dressed young man riding the horse was greedily staring at Winnie Romero with a gaze filled with possessiveness.
