Chapter 1284: Chapter 1284 Huggo Reid
Hearing Forrest Reid’s words, Colin Yorke couldn’t help feeling a tad smug.
"Hmph! Even at the sa ’Martial Emperor Realm’, there are levels of strength."
Just then, a disdainful snort ca through, stiffening the smug smile that had just appeared on Colin Yorke’s face.
His gaze then fell on the bald, middle-aged man wearing tiger skin behind Forrest Reid.
It was he who had uttered the previous statent.
The bald man stood there, his eyes fixated on Wyatt Barnes, filled with disdain and provocation.
"Forrest, it seems Little Tiger is quite confident in his own strength."
Colin Yorke, unfazed, turned to Forrest Reid with a smile.
"Little Tiger?"
Hearing Colin Yorke call the bald man "Little Tiger," the corners of Wyatt Barnes’s mouth twitched, and he completely ignored the disdainful and challenging gaze of the bald man as he sized him up.
The bald man was tall and sturdy, standing at over two ters, and rough around the edges.
And yet, such a large and tall man was referred to as "Little Tiger"?
Unwittingly, a smile crept onto Wyatt’s lips.
"What are you laughing at?!"
The bald man, who had been keeping his eyes on Wyatt, couldn’t help but bark out when he noticed the smile on Wyatt’s face.
The next mont, a cold light shone in his eyes, as if he had transford into a starving tiger ready to pounce and attack Wyatt, or even to kill and devour him.
"Huggo Reid!"
Finally, Forrest Reid spoke up, sternly reprimanding the bald man, "Didn’t you hear what your Uncle Master Colin said? This Elder Brother Ling Tian is his friend! Apologize at once."
"Unless he can defeat ... I will not apologize."
However, Huggo Reid was defiant.
As Forrest Reid’s expression darkened, Colin Yorke simply smiled and tried to soothe the situation, "Forrest, as Little Tiger’s ’Master’ and ’adopted father’, you’ve watched him grow up, don’t you know Little Tiger’s temperant?"
"A family misfortune... a family misfortune indeed."
Forrest Reid shook his head with a sigh, expressing a helplessness between his brows.
Imdiately after, Forrest Reid changed the subject, "Colin, you didn’t co to find
just to introduce this Elder Brother Ling Tian to , did you?"
"Forrest, I ca looking for you this ti for that ’Flood Dragon’ you once hunted."
Colin Yorke explained his intention and asked, "I wonder if you still have the ’dragon tendons’ of that Flood Dragon?"
"Dragon tendons?"
Forrest Reid was initially taken aback, but then he raised his hand, revealing a long strip resembling a ’cow tendon’, plain and crimson in color.
"Dragon tendons!"
At the sight of this object, Wyatt’s eyes lit up, revealing an excited expression.
At a glance, he recognized it as a ’dragon tendon’.
"Within the mories of the Reincarnated Martial Emperor, he had seen a dragon tendon once... However, that was rely a tendon from a Demon Emperor-level Flood Dragon. While similar in appearance, it’s fundantally worlds apart from this tendon."
It was precisely because the Reincarnated Martial Emperor had seen a dragon tendon that Wyatt instantly recognized the item in Forrest Reid’s hand as the dragon tendon he desperately sought.
To be honest.
Although he had followed Colin Yorke to this place to find Forrest Reid, the ’Martial Emperor Departfall’, he wasn’t too hopeful about acquiring the dragon tendon.
However, he never expected that Forrest would indeed have a dragon tendon and even produce it.
"Forrest, could you possibly part with this dragon tendon for ?"
Colin Yorke, eyes gleaming, looked at Forrest and stated straightforwardly, "You can na your price."
"We’re all brothers here; such talk seems so impersonal... This dragon tendon is of no use just sitting with . Since you want it, I will..."
Forrest Reid was about to offer the dragon tendon to Colin Yorke, but before he could finish, he was interrupted by Huggo Reid standing behind him.
"Uncle Master Colin, you can have the dragon tendon... however, you must agree to let
have a fight with him!"
Huggo spoke to Colin and then turned his gaze to Wyatt, his eyes gleaming, "If I’m not mistaken... Uncle Master Colin ca to ask for the dragon tendon for your sake, right?"
"You’re quite sharp."
Wyatt was surprised to see Huggo approaching, not expecting such a burly fellow to possess such keen observational skills.
"Hmph! Unless you defeat , don’t even think about taking the ’dragon tendon’ today."
Huggo grunted, speaking with an undertone of threat.
"Are you the one calling the shots?"
Wyatt laughed, radiating brightness.
"Huggo Reid!"
At that mont, Forrest, who had regained his composure, called out with an ugly expression and an evident dissatisfaction in his tone.
"Forrest, please calm yourself, I wouldn’t want you to get worked up."
While Colin Yorke was calming Forrest, he also looked towards Wyatt, "Elder Brother Ling Tian, since Little Tiger wishes to spar with you, why don’t you just indulge him?"
Toward the end, Colin conveyed with Origin Force-condensed sound to Wyatt, "This Little Tiger has always been extraordinarily talented, never having faced any real hardship. As a result, he’s developed a rather arrogant personality... If possible, perhaps you could teach him a lesson."
Hearing Colin’s words, Wyatt nodded, and the purple robe on his body rustled without wind, making a fluttering sound.
"If you wish for battle, then let’s begin."
Wyatt Barnes looked at Huggo Reid and said indifferently, "Just don’t cry if you lose..."
Little Tiger.
Wyatt was deliberately echoing Colin Yorke’s way of calling Huggo Reid.
Upon hearing Wyatt address him in such a manner, Huggo Reid’s face turned utterly gloomy, his Origin Force erupted violently, causing the air around to feel as if it had been sucked away.
In Huggo Reid’s eyes,
the nickna ’Little Tiger’ was not sothing just anyone was entitled to use.
Colin Yorke could use it, because he was Reid’s elder.
Long before his master and Colin Yorke beca Martial Emperor powerhouses, when he was just a child, he had known Colin Yorke and started calling him ’Uncle’ from a young age.
Colin Yorke was more than a decade older than him.
Even now, because he hadn’t deliberately preserved his youth, he looked much older than Colin Yorke.
"Since you’re courting death, I’ll oblige! And I won’t go easy on you because of Uncle Yorke... If you can’t defeat even , you’re not worthy of being Uncle Yorke’s friend!"
Huggo Reid let out a cold shout, his Origin Force exploded, and then transford into multicolored forces, clearly utilizing the various profound anings he had comprehended.
Not just that, as he unleashed his full strength, a giant axe also appeared in his hand.
Whoosh!
Despite his large build, Huggo Reid was not slow; he seed unaffected by his bodily mass and in a blink, he shot towards Wyatt Barnes like a bolt of lightning.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
...
As Huggo Reid passed by, the air currents were also turbulent, emitting deafening blasts, resounding like thunder, shaking the spirit.
From beginning to end, Colin Yorke stood by, quietly watching.
After Colin Yorke had spoken, Forrest Reid no longer stopped Huggo Reid.
Of course, it wasn’t just because Colin Yorke had decided so, but also because he wanted to see what this young man, deed a friend by Colin Yorke, was capable of.
Although existences above the Martial Emperor Realm could preserve their youth forever,
participants in the ’Mist Hidden Martial eting’ must be under seventy years of age.
So, he was certain.
This young man wasn’t very old.
"Huh? He’s not dodging?"
Quickly, Forrest Reid’s pupils constricted sharply because he saw that Wyatt didn’t move from his spot despite Huggo Reid’s use of a spirit weapon and his full-force attack.
It was as if he was waiting for Huggo Reid’s attack to arrive.
"What is he trying to do? Is it too late for him to dodge, or is he frozen in fear? Or maybe..."
As Forrest Reid’s thoughts raced, considering multiple possibilities.
Whoosh!
Huggo Reid arrived close to Wyatt Barnes, and his giant axe trembled, emanating a series of thunderous air blasts before he swung his giant axe directly at Wyatt’s head.
"Die!"
Huggo Reid’s eyes glead coldly, showing no rcy as he swung down his axe, as if carrying the might of ’creating heaven and earth’.
With the axe’s fierce approach, Wyatt could clearly sense the sharpness coming toward him; if truly hit by Huggo Reid’s axe, he would undoubtedly be split in two.
He didn’t doubt that at all.
At this mont, Wyatt’s robe fluttered towards his back as Huggo Reid swung his axe down, as if blown by a gust of wind, flapping loudly.
"Huh?"
Just as Huggo Reid’s giant axe was but inches away from Wyatt Barnes, Colin Yorke’s brows furrowed, unable to discern what Wyatt intended to do.
For Wyatt’s strength, he had always been very confident.
Back when Wyatt had not yet broken through to the Martial Emperor Realm, he had been able to suppress Dominic Campbell, his personal direct disciple who had broken through to the First Level of the Martial Emperor Realm.
Now, Wyatt’s cultivation had skyrocketed, breaking through to the Martial Emperor Realm in one fell swoop, his strength had surely improved further.
Even though Huggo Reid was an outstanding Martial Emperor Realm First Level practitioner, his strength far surpassing that of his personal direct disciple Dominic Campbell, the likelihood of defeating Wyatt seed nearly impossible in his eyes.
Yet, facing this dangerous scene, even he couldn’t help but think of intervening.
Simply because, if he didn’t act now, it would be too late.
Wyatt would be split in half.
"Stop!"
As Colin Yorke was preparing to intervene, Forrest Reid had already shouted sternly, already taking action.
But in the fraction of a second, as he began to react, he seed to have noticed sothing and suddenly froze in his motion, staring ahead in utter disbelief.
As if he had seen sothing astonishing.
At the sa ti, Colin Yorke also halted his incipient movent.
Far away, Huggo Reid’s giant axe finally fell, but did not hit Wyatt Barnes; instead, it landed on an arrow that had suddenly appeared in the outstretched hand of Wyatt.
Clang!
Almost instantly, as the giant axe collided with the arrow, a deafening clang resounded.
Imdiately following, a small mushroom cloud ford around the point of collision, and a terrifying shockwave swept out from there.
