Chapter 1939: Chapter 1939: Ergency asures
"I, Russel Yorke, Fifth Elder of the Northern Qi Sect, will do as I say!"
As he spoke, murder glinted in Russel Yorke’s eyes, ready to devour anyone in his path!
After he finished, he cast a deep look at Wyatt Barnes, a cold smile playing at the corners of his mouth, then turned around and left.
Just as he had claid.
If Wyatt Barnes had been a talented Fire Worship Sect disciple, he wouldn’t dare openly threaten Wyatt’s friends and family, as it would displease the Fire Worship Sect.
However, Wyatt Barnes was rely an ordinary Fire Worship Sect disciple with a ’yellow spirit root.’
Even if such a disciple were threatened, the Fire Worship Sect wouldn’t stand up for them, let alone when the one threatening was the Fifth Elder of a first-rate power like the Northern Qi Sect!
"Hmph!"
After Russel Yorke left, Maximus Lee glared coldly at Wyatt Barnes before chasing after Russel.
However, at this mont, he didn’t say anything more.
Because he dared not say anything!
Colluding with outsiders to oppress one’s sect disciples... such charges were unbearable, even for Maximus Lee, the first Elder Silver Fla of the Black Tortoise Altar!
"Wyatt Barnes, well done!"
After Maximus Lee followed Russel Yorke away, the scene erupted, with many giving Wyatt Barnes a thumbs-up.
Wyatt’s recent ’eruption’ had made them proud!
Of course, so disciples of the Black Tortoise Altar remained silent, gazing worriedly at Wyatt Barnes.
They, too, noticed that Wyatt’s expression darkened within an instant.
In that mont, they all realized that the last words of Russel Yorke, filled with ’threats’ toward Wyatt Barnes, had had an effect!
"Looks like Senior Brother Wyatt isn’t alone! If he were alone, hearing Russel Yorke threaten his friends and family wouldn’t have bothered him. But now..."
"Russel Yorke’s threat is indeed insoluble... even if Senior Brother Wyatt possesses high talent and is valued by the Fire Worship Sect, at most, Russel Yorke wouldn’t dare openly use his friends and family to threaten him, but secretly, he would definitely do it!"
"If Senior Brother Wyatt has friends and family, Russel Yorke’s threat is truly sothing ’insoluble.’
"Ruthless! Too ruthless!"
"As the saying goes, disasters should not involve family... that Russel Yorke has gone too far!"
...
The group of disciples from the Black Tortoise Altar whispered among themselves, and when they looked at Wyatt Barnes again, an expression of pity flickered in their eyes.
In their view.
If Wyatt Barnes truly had friends and family, and Russel Yorke was determined to target them... then for Wyatt Barnes and his friends and family, it truly was insoluble!
Wyatt Barnes stood motionless in the air at a distance, his expression changing again and again.
At this mont, Russel Yorke’s parting words still echoed in his ears:
"Yes! As long as you, Wyatt Barnes, cower inside the Fire Worship Sect, I, Russel Yorke, cannot touch you... but can you ensure all your friends and family have a ’backing’ that intimidates ?"
"I believe that with the intelligence capabilities of the Northern Qi Sect, as well as my own thods and skills, it won’t be difficult to investigate your ’background.’
"It’s a pity that you didn’t choose to end your life within the ti I set, missing the chance to protect your friends and family... I truly feel sorry for them, having a friend like you!"
"Wyatt Barnes, even if you spend your entire life cowering in the Fire Worship Sect, I will ensure you experience the pain of losing all your friends and family!"
...
He knew in his heart that Russel Yorke wasn’t joking!
After a mont, Wyatt Barnes finally snapped out of it and returned to his ’Type B Room’ residence under the watchful eyes of everyone, disappearing from the view of the Black Tortoise Altar disciples.
Only then did the group of Black Tortoise Altar disciples slowly disperse.
However, as they dispersed, their discussions continued to revolve around Wyatt Barnes and the threatening words Russel Yorke had directed at him.
Russel Yorke, as the Fifth Elder of the Northern Qi Sect, indeed had the power to retaliate against Wyatt Barnes’s friends and family!
This was beyond doubt.
"Serves him right!"
At the doorway of another ’Type B Room’ in the distance, Caron Graham leaned against the door, trembling, though his body ached all over, watching Wyatt Barnes threatened by Russel Yorke filled him with satisfaction.
Wyatt Barnes’s public defeat today undoubtedly humiliated him!
After today’s battle, he had already marked Wyatt Barnes as an unending enemy, and if given the chance in the future, he would never let Wyatt Barnes live on!
He believed that with his dark green talent spirit root, surpassing Wyatt Barnes with a ’yellow spirit root’ would be quite a simple task.
One can imagine, if Caron Graham knew that Wyatt’s current talent spirit root matched his, both being deep green... his expression would surely be sothing to behold!
After returning to his room, Wyatt Barnes’s face remained grim.
However, as ti passed, he gradually cald down.
"Russel Yorke, despicable!"
Taking a deep breath, Wyatt Barnes exhaled a breath of turbid air.
At the sa ti, an incredibly chilling killing intent involuntarily emanated from his body, causing the surrounding air temperature to seemingly drop a few degrees.
Wyatt Barnes was furious, truly furious!
He never imagined that Russel Yorke, as the Fifth Elder of the top-tier power ’Northern Qi Sect’ in the Upper Domain of the Martial Dao Sacred Land, would openly declare in front of so many people his intention to harm Wyatt Barnes’ family and friends!
At this mont, Wyatt Barnes was filled with rage, with nowhere to release it, making him feel extrely uncomfortable.
"However... even if Russel Yorke wanted to investigate my ’background’, it wouldn’t be that easy! After all, I’m not soone from the ’Upper Domain’ of the Martial Dao Sacred Land!"
With this thought, Wyatt Barnes temporarily breathed a sigh of relief.
Of course, it was only ’temporary’.
Although he was not from the ’Upper Domain’ of the Martial Dao Sacred Land, because he once possessed the ’Demon Sealing Monunt’, there were many people in the Upper Domain who had heard of his na, and so even had his ’portrait’.
"Luckily, I’m not using my ’real face’ now!"
Thinking of his current disguise, Wyatt Barnes imdiately felt that he had foresight.
Of course, this doesn’t an that Russel Yorke couldn’t investigate the Lower Domain, nor does it an he couldn’t find out that he is the Junior House Master of the quasi Third-Rate Power ’Mansion of Azure Clouds’ in the Lower Domain.
With Russel Yorke’s status, if he really wanted to investigate, he would find out sooner or later; it’s just a matter of ti.
It’s imaginable that once Russel Yorke uncovered his background, the ’Mansion of Azure Clouds’ in the Lower Domain would definitely be drenched in blood!
Even his father, his mother, and even his wife and children, everyone he cared about...
would be left dead without a burial place!
Thinking of this, Wyatt Barnes was filled with fear and anxiety, and the emotions he had finally cald down once again beca restless.
"The urgent matter at hand is to first resolve the current ’threat’... any threat that could expose my background must be resolved!"
After forcefully calming himself down, Wyatt Barnes imdiately contacted Elder Fire, speaking urgently and anxiously, "Elder Fire, do you have any kind of ’secret technique’ that can defend against the ’Soul Searching Technique’?"
The Soul Searching Technique was what Wyatt Barnes feared the most now!
If he carelessly got caught by Russel Yorke or Maximus Lee, who then used the ’Soul Searching Technique’ on him... Then, his ’background’ would be exposed from his own mouth!
This was a scenario he didn’t want to see.
However, it was a concern that was hard to defend against.
Therefore, he could only seek out Elder Fire.
Regardless of whether Elder Fire had the ans to resist the ’Soul Searching Technique’, he had to treat it as a long shot, as he had no other choice!
While inquiring Elder Fire with anxiety, Wyatt Barnes was full of apprehension.
"Yes!"
With Elder Fire’s response, the heart that Wyatt Barnes had been holding up finally relaxed, and his face showed an expression of joy.
Imdiately after, Elder Fire’s voice ca again, "However, for that secret technique to achieve its intended ’effect’, it must constantly consu a certain amount of ntal power to maintain its operation... Three days after stopping its operation, its soul-resistant effect against the Soul Searching Technique will disappear! This secret technique doesn’t have high requirents for the practitioner; it only needs soone with ’Human Saint Realm’ level ntal power to perform it."
"Constantly consuming a bit of ntal power to maintain its operation?"
To Wyatt Barnes, as long as it can spare his family and friends from ’danger’ even for a short ti, this was not a problem at all.
"The ’effect’ remains for a maximum of three days after stopping its operation?"
That would definitely be sufficient.
Even if Maximus Lee and Russel Yorke wanted to use the ’Soul Searching Technique’ on him, they would certainly opt for a swift action and wouldn’t drag it on for such a long ti.
After all, they wouldn’t dare let others find out.
Especially Maximus Lee.
If discovered using the ’Soul Searching Technique’ on a sect disciple without reason, its spread would certainly lead to severe penalties from the Fire Worship Sect, and he might even be expelled from the sect!
"Elder Fire, quickly teach
that ’secret technique’!"
Wyatt Barnes urgently addressed Elder Fire.
He was eager to acquire that ’secret technique’!
For him, it was the ’life-saving charm’ for his group of family and friends far away in the Lower Domain.
Seems like Elder Fire sensed Wyatt Barnes’s urgency, and imdiately encoded the secret technique into a stream of information, rging it into Wyatt Barnes’s consciousness, letting him comprehend it himself.
Just as Elder Fire ntioned, this secret technique had no high requirents for the practitioner; it only required ’Human Saint Realm’ ntal power to perform it.
Thus, it only took Wyatt Barnes a mont to cast it successfully, ensuring that his soul would not fall victim to the ’Soul Searching Technique’.
"The continuous ntal power consumption is still within an acceptable range."
Noticing the minimal ntal power consumption that didn’t affect his routine, Wyatt Barnes instantly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Now, it’s ti to find Augustine Landon and Hall Master Watson... I need to ensure they also consistently use this ’secret technique’. Otherwise, if Maximus Lee and Russel Yorke use the ’Soul Searching Technique’ on them, my ’background’ will be exposed too!"
At the sa ti, Wyatt Barnes thought of Augustine Landon at the ’Vermilion Bird Altar’ and Oliver Watson at the ’White Tiger Altar’.
