Chapter 1030: Chapter 1030: A Crazy Decision
Inside the tavern, the majority of the patrons looked in unison at the young man whose neck was being clutched and lifted by Wyatt Barnes, with faces full of schadenfreude.
In their view,
this androgynous young man, who dared to say in Wyatt’s presence that a bloodbath in the Crimson Heaven Kingdom would be an extrely spectacular scene, was undoubtedly courting death!
What?!
From the mont he heard Wyatt reveal his identity, the young man’s complexion had already changed.
Now, surrounded by the sounds of delighted schadenfreude pouring into his ears, he felt as if he had been struck by lightning.
It took him a long while to co back to his senses, and, displaying fear in his eyes, he looked at the purple-clothed young man who was forcibly lifting him by the neck.
At first, he couldn’t understand at all why the purple-clothed young man was targeting him.
Now, he had completely understood.
All this, had been because of his disrespectful statent about the Crimson Heaven Kingdom.
Moreover, the young man in front of him was from the Crimson Heaven Kingdom.
A person who had left the Crimson Heaven Kingdom and overca nurous challenges, and before the age of thirty, had been recognized as the foremost young individual of the Great Turdo Dynasty.
"You... you are Wyatt Barnes?!"
The young man’s voice was still soft, but now, in addition to being soft, it evidently had beco laced with fear when facing Wyatt.
"You just said... in five days, if I don’t appear before those people, they are going to move against the Crimson Heaven Kingdom?"
Wyatt’s gaze was sharp as a knife, staring at the young man in front of him, and he asked sternly, word by word.
If Wyatt’s gaze could kill, at that mont, the young man would have been dead.
As Wyatt spoke, everyone, including Winnie Roro, shifted their gaze towards the young man.
This included their curiosity as well.
"Yes... yes."
The young man, whose neck was being clutched by Wyatt, fearing that Wyatt might lose control of his emotions and choke him to death, replied without any hesitation.
"Tell
everything you know."
At so point, Wyatt’s expression had returned to calm, and he spoke unhurriedly.
However, Wyatt’s calm voice, to the ears of the young man being lifted by the neck, felt like the calm before a storm.
At so point, his forehead was covered in cold sweat, his cheeks involuntarily began to tremble, and his eyes filled with utmost fear.
Then, under the scrutiny of all, the peculiar-looking, soft-voiced young man began to speak everything he knew without holding back.
...
It included why he knew these things:
It turns out, he had recently learned all this from a distant relative who had co from the Black Stone Empire.
"Two months ago, those people arrived at the Crimson Heaven Kingdom, planning to use the safety of the Crimson Heaven Kingdom to force
out?"
"The news that those people wanted to use the Crimson Heaven Kingdom as leverage to force
out had already spread in the Great Turdo Dynasty and Black Stone Empire?"
"Two months ago, those people declared they would give
only two months, and if I didn’t show up after that, they would destroy the Crimson Heaven Kingdom?"
...
Wyatt’s expression grew increasingly gloomy.
He had never imagined.
That presence, presumably one of the second-tier forces from the Northern Desert, had approached the Great Turdo Dynasty and the Crimson Heaven Kingdom as early as two months ago.
"A prominent ’outside territory’ second-tier force, stooping so low... using my holand as a threat, forcing
to co out."
Wyatt’s eyes sparkled with a cold light, emitting waves of intimidating murderous intent.
In that mont, he seed to have transford into an Asura thirsty for blood, ready to harvest lives at any ti.
For a ti, except for Winnie Roro and the young man whose neck was caught by him, the patrons in the tavern swiftly stepped back, their eyes revealing panic as they looked at Wyatt from a distance.
They were truly worried that Wyatt might suddenly lash out at them.
Perhaps, Wyatt was younger than them.
But Wyatt’s combat power was much beyond his age, instilling a deep fear in them from the bottom of their hearts.
Are you kidding !
As early as two years ago, Wyatt had single-handedly exterminated the three Sect Leaders of the Green Forest, turning the Green Forest into history.
Not to ntion that after two years, Wyatt’s strength had grown to who knows what extent.
Even Wyatt from two years ago was far beyond their ability to handle.
"Wyatt Barnes, I told you everything... don’t kill ! Don’t kill ! Please, I beg you!!"
Realizing the danger, with a face that had turned utterly pale, the young man took a deep breath and pleaded with Wyatt.
At that mont, Wyatt also finally returned to his senses, at the sa ti looking at the young man being clutched by the neck and continuously pleading, his gaze icily detached.
"So words... once spoken, must be paid for."
Wyatt spoke softly, his tone calm, as if devoid of any emotion.
However, those present could still sense anger in Wyatt’s words.
"No!!"
Just as the young man’s pupils shrank and his complexion changed dramatically,
Wyatt, who was clutching the young man’s neck, suddenly released his grip.
Imdiately afterward, he struck with the speed of lightning, a palm shooting out as if aided by divine power, hitting the young man’s lower abdon.
Bang!!
The young man hadn’t had the ti to stabilize his posture when he was sent flying by Wyatt’s palm, hitting hard against the wall of the tavern.
"Ah!!"
As the blood-covered young man slumped down the wall, his face turned red and he spat out a large mouthful of blood.
"My Origin Force, my Origin Force... you are so ruthless, so ruthless! You actually destroyed my dantian!!"
After a mont of stunned silence, the young man ca to his senses and looked at Wyatt Barnes as if he were staring at a devil, letting out a mournful growl.
The group of onlooking guests, upon hearing this, changed their expressions, eyes filled with terror as they looked toward Wyatt Barnes.
In this world where the Martial Dao and the respect for power reigned supre,
crippling a person’s cultivation often inflicted more pain on the victim than killing them.
"This is the price you pay for speaking recklessly,"
Wyatt Barnes spoke in an icy tone, never looking at the young man again.
"Winnie, let’s go."
Without even ti for a al, Wyatt Barnes called out to Winnie Roro before disappearing in front of a crowd of astonished patrons.
Of course, it wasn’t true disappearance; his speed had simply reached a level that made it difficult for the inn’s patrons to perceive.
At the sa ti, a red glow flashed before the eyes of those inside the inn, and the red-cloaked masked woman who had been sitting with Wyatt Barnes vanished as well.
"So fast!"
Soon, soone couldn’t help exclaiming in shock, their face filled with astonishnt.
"After two years... Wyatt Barnes’ strength must have broken through to the ’Cave Void Realm’!"
Soone speculated aloud.
His words received the agreent of most people.
"It’s just a sha, soone capsized in the gutter... Talking bad about Crimson Heaven is one thing, but to dare to do it right in front of Wyatt Barnes’s face."
"Exactly! Don’t they know Crimson Heaven is Wyatt Barnes’s holand?"
"Haha... Maybe he never dread that while he hoped for Crimson Heaven to be bloodied, and said it aloud, Wyatt Barnes was right beside him."
...
The conversation among the patrons in the inn, filled with cold mockery and ridicule, reached the ears of the young man who was just helped up by two of his companions.
"Wow!"
He was so infuriated that he spat out another mouthful of blood and then blacked out and fainted.
Wyatt Barnes, of course, knew nothing of what happened in the inn.
After leaving the inn, he left the small town and headed towards Crimson Heaven.
An figure, blazing like a fla, swept through the air, swiftly catching up to Wyatt Barnes and soon walked shoulder to shoulder with him.
"Brother Barnes, are you heading back to Crimson Heaven now?"
Winnie Roro had previously accompanied Wyatt Barnes to Crimson Heaven and easily recognized that he was heading in that direction.
"Yes."
Wyatt Barnes did not deny it, a trace of somberness shading his brows.
Crimson Heaven.
It was his holand in this lifeti, of equal importance to Earth where he had lived in his previous life.
Although his parents had already left Crimson Heaven, it still held many of his attachnts.
Loved ones and friends.
In his previous life, they were out of reach.
In this life, they were within his grasp.
"No matter what... I will never let them suffer because of ! Otherwise, I will never be at peace in this life."
At this mont, various familiar figures appeared in Wyatt Barnes’s mind.
Remi Sinclair, Seeker Sinclair, Tiggi Field, Darren Lee...
And a group of elders who had helped him greatly in the past.
If Crimson Heaven truly beca bloodied because of him, he would regret it for a lifeti!
Therefore, without any hesitation, he made a decision, a decision to ’march into the tiger’s den’ regardless of the dangers.
The outco of this decision was sothing Wyatt Barnes could not yet foresee.
But he knew it would be perilously fraught!
"I just hope that at the critical mont, the ’Demon Sealing Monunt’ won’t fail ..."
Wyatt Barnes silently said to himself.
He had made a mad decision:
At the critical mont, he would use the ’Demon Sealing Monunt’ to annihilate whoever ca from the secondary forces!
However, as this thought arose, he felt sowhat uncertain.
He recalled the ti when the ’Demon Sealing Monunt’ had ’devil transford’ him, enabling him to kill all six elders of the Grimm Wolf Fortress’ Transforming Void Realm.
He rembered.
Back then, Wood Town had blocked an attack from a Grimm Wolf Fortress elder and died for him, which completely enraged him.
However, anger aside, with his strength at that ti, avenging Wood Town, let alone protecting himself, was problematic.
At the critical mont, Wyatt Barnes noticed an unusual activity in the ’Demon Sealing Monunt’ inside the Storage Ring.
When his mind touched the ’Demon Sealing Monunt’ within the Storage Ring,
a voice seed to echo by his ears, a voice full of temptation, originating from the Demon Sealing Monunt.
Let
out!!
I can give you infinite power!!
Wyatt Barnes rembered that voice very clearly.
It was because of that voice that he took out the Demon Sealing Monunt, and a very strange black force emanated from it.
When his hand touched the Demon Sealing Monunt, the black force began to rge into his body, even into his soul.
Then, his consciousness was suppressed, and he was ’devil transford’!
