Chapter 399: Chapter 399: The Arrival at ’The Stable
Outside the inner valley of Mysterious Lotus Valley, the atmosphere completely solidified.
All of a sudden.
Thud! Thud! Thud!
Garrett Yellow bent over and knocked his head three tis on the ground.
After bowing three tis, Garrett Yellow looked at Zeke Foxsong and declared in a deep voice, "Sect Leader Foxsong, these three bows are my gratitude for your years of nurturing... From now on, I, Garrett Yellow, have nothing more to do with you and Seven Stars Sword Clan!"
No ties anymore!
Garrett Yellow’s words made the atmosphere at the scene even more peculiar...
Wyatt Barnes watched Garrett Yellow calmly, his gaze icy cold.
Garrett Yellow’s betrayal was beyond his expectations.
Although whether Garrett was a traitor or not had little to do with him, he was utterly disgusted by Garrett’s actions.
In his view.
Every bit of kindness should be returned with a fountain of appreciation...
The kindness that the Sect Leader Foxsong of the Seven Star Sword Clan showed to Garrett Yellow was as vast as the sky and deep as the sea, yet discarded by a few words from Garrett Yellow.
This Garrett Yellow was nothing but a complete ingrate!
As soon as Garrett finished his piece.
Except for the fact that Zeke Foxsong had yet to react, the faces of Colin Clark, his son, and Iker Colby, his disciple, changed significantly.
Sonny Clark and Eugene Morgan looked at Garrett Yellow with disgust in their eyes.
They had spent more ti in the Seven Star Sword Sect than Wyatt Barnes, so they naturally knew how much the sect leader usually took care of ’Garrett’ this favorite disciple...
Now, Garrett Yellow was going to betray the sect leader and the Seven Stars Sword Clan!
"The Sect Leader nurtured you to beco skilled, and the Seven Stars Sword Clan contributed to your achievents... Is this how you repay the Sect Leader and the Seven Stars Sword Clan?"
Colin Clark stared at Garrett Yellow, his face dark as water, and in his eyes flashed an intimidating anger.
Amid the anger, there was a hint of killing intent.
Wyatt Barnes raised his eyebrow.
He had known Colin Clark, the master of Sunrise Peak, for a long ti, but this was the first ti he had seen Colin getting angry...
Rage is capable of wildfire!
"Everything you have was given by the Sect Leader, given by the Seven Star Sword Clan... You want to betray the Sect Leader, betray the Seven Star Sword Sect, that’s fine. But..."
Origin Force ravaged and roared on Iker Colby’s body causing his clothes to flutter loudly.
Above the void, two enormous shadows ford gradually, slithering and ready for a strike.
Two ancient horned dragon shadows!
The sign of the ’Enter Void Realm First level’.
"The cultivation you have, which cos from the Sect Leader and the Seven Star Sword Sect, should not be taken away under any circumstances!"
Iker Colby roared.
Rapidly.
The violence of a Void Realm fighter perated the air, sending shivers down one’s spine.
Suddenly, Iker Colby stepped forward, releasing a terrifying aura, with Elder Giant Bird’s support, they shattered the influence of the Returning Origin Sect Leader’s aura, enveloping Guild Garrett Yellow.
Garrett Yellow’s face instantly turned pale, his throat sweetened, forcing him to spit out a mouthful of old blood.
"Master, save !"
Wyatt Barnes noticed, when Garrett Yellow asked the Return Origin Sect Leader for help, he actually addressed the Returning Origin Sect Leader as ’Master’...
Clearly, he had already reached an agreent with the Return Origin Sect Leader and was planning to switch to the Returning Origin Sect.
"Humph!"
An elder of the Returning Origin Sect sneered, stepping forward to join the Returning Origin Sect Leader in blocking the influence of Elder Giant Bird and Iker Colby.
"Thank you Master, thank you Elder."
Garrett Yellow quickly thanked the two of them. At the sa ti, he got up and retreated behind the Returning Origin Sect Leader, seeking protection in fear that the higher-ups of the Seven Star Sword Sect would attack him.
"Very good, very good."
At last, Zeke Foxsong made a move, giving Garrett Yellow a casual glance, without any emotion in his voice...
Then he looked down at the Giant Roc, "Elder Giant Bird, let’s go."
The Giant Roc paused, obviously confused by Zeke Foxsong’s response.
"Sect Leader."
Colin Clark and Iker Colby, the two peak masters of the Seven Star Sword Sect, looked at Zeke Foxsong with puzzled expressions on their faces.
"Sect Leader, without your imnse support, Garrett Yellow would never have achieved what he has today! I say, he can betray you, betray the Seven Stars Sword Sect, he can totally move to the Returning Origin Sect... but he must leave behind his cultivation!"
Iker Colby gritted his teeth.
Back when Zeke Foxsong was not yet the Sect Leader, he was not the Peak Master of Heavenly Pivot Peak...
At that ti, he had already ford a deep friendship with Zeke Foxsong.
Today, seeing Zeke Foxsong’s disciple commit such a heinous act, he empathized with the pain and was furiously incensed.
"Forget it, just consider it as
being blind."
Zeke Foxsong shook his head, seemingly unwilling to ntion this anymore, looked at the Giant Roc, "Elder Giant Bird, let’s go... From now on, I, Zeke Foxsong, will deny ever having this disciple!"
The Giant Roc nodded, spreading its wings, ready to fly up into the sky.
Although, Zeke Foxsong spoke very calmly, Wyatt Barnes could still detect a trace of desolation and anger in his serene tone...
It made sense.
The favorite disciple who he had raised himself, his only favorite disciple, had betrayed him...
Such a blow, no one could accept.
"The Sect Leader’s equanimity is admirable."
Wyatt Barnes sighed inwardly.
He asked himself, if he were in Zeke Foxsong’s place today, he would kill Garrett Yellow without hesitation...
An ungrateful nace is ant to be put down.
Whoosh!
The Roc with wings like clouds hanging from the sky unfurled, and the dust rose up from the earth beneath it.
The mont the Roc took off, Wyatt Barnes cast a casual glance at Garrett Yellow. His gaze then fell upon the Leader of the Returning Origin Sect and he declared sternly, "Sect Leader Wright, I think it’s essential I remind you... so people who can betray once can also betray twice!"
As the echo of Wyatt’s words faded, the Roc had already beco a streak of light, soaring into the sky, darting into the clouds, and vanishing from sight.
"Damn that Wyatt Barnes..."
Garrett Yellow, his face ashen, hadn’t expected Wyatt Barnes to stir things up before leaving.
At this mont, he could see the peculiar look in the eyes of the two Grand Elders from the Returning Origin Sect, as well as the four disciples watching him...
"Master, I swear, I will never betray the Returning Origin Sect in my life!"
Garrett Yellow, panicked, looked at the Leader of the Returning Origin Sect and tried to and the situation.
The Returning Origin Sect Leader gave Garrett Yellow a cursory glance, "Garrett Yellow, even if you spew these empty words, not only do I won’t believe them, but even you yourself probably won’t believe them. Today, if I hadn’t said that I wanted to accept you as my direct disciple, and establish you as the next leader of the Returning Origin Sect... would you have betrayed Zeke Foxsong, and the Seven Stars Sword Clan, to co to the Returning Origin Sect?"
Garrett Yellow responded with an awkward laugh.
Yes, his decision to betray was precisely based on the promise made by the leader of the Returning Origin Sect previously at the Martial Arts Institute.
At that ti, witnessing the teoric rise of Wyatt Barnes, his master had even stated his intention to make Wyatt Barnes the next head of the Seven Stars Sword Clan...
He felt deeply discontented with this.
The Returning Origin Sect Leader’s promise had helped him see the light once again.
"Zeke Foxsong, you pushed
to this... One day, I’ll show you that I’m just as good as Wyatt Barnes!"
Looking in the direction where the Roc went, a trace of ruthlessness flickered in Garrett Yellow’s eyes.
Half a month later.
Wyatt Barnes stood on the back of the Roc and could see the outlines of the ’Seven Sword Peaks’ of the Seven Stars Sword Clan from afar.
"We’re back!"
Sonny Clark stood next to Wyatt Barnes, looking in the direction of the Seven Sword Peaks, a bit excited.
To Sonny Clark, the Seven Stars Sword Clan was his ho.
None could compare with it.
"Indeed, we’re back."
Wyatt Barnes slightly nodded with a smile.
All the way, the atmosphere was quite tense, filling Wyatt Barnes with a feeling of heavy pressure.
All of that originated from the ’betrayal’ of ’Garrett Yellow’.
Just as they were about to enter the ’territory of the Seven Stars Sword Clan’, Wyatt Barnes suddenly lowered his head and looked at the Roc beneath his feet, and whispered sothing using the Origin Force.
The Roc nodded its head.
Of course, no one else saw this, except for Wyatt Barnes.
Whoosh!
Suddenly, the Roc carrying Wyatt Barnes and his companions, changed its course. Instead of heading to the Heavenly Pivot Peak, it swooped down toward the foot of it.
"Elder Giant Bird?"
The action of the Roc had even surprised Sect Leader Foxsong, who had been silent all along.
Colin Clark and Iker Colby were instantly on edge.
They thought the Roc had discovered sothing...
Sonny Clark and Eugene Morgan also wore serious expressions.
"What are you all fussing about? I just asked Elder Roc to take
to et a friend."
Seeing this, Wyatt Barnes was completely speechless.
Was their reaction too extre?
Wyatt Barnes’ words made everyone sigh in relief. Iker Colby chuckled bitterly, "Wyatt Barnes, who has such clout that the mont you return, you rush to et him?"
Sect Leader Foxsong and the others also curiously looked at Wyatt Barnes.
"You will know soon."
Wyatt Barnes shook his head with a smile, keeping them guessing.
At that mont, the Roc swooped down, alerting several disciples of the Seven Stars Sword Clan guarding the entrance to the clan who were...
"What is that Fierce Beast?"
"It doesn’t look like a Fierce Beast... it looks like a Demon Beast! Look, there are people standing on it."
"Eh, isn’t that our Sect Leader?"
"There’s also Peak Master Colin Clark, Peak Master Iker Colby, and senior disciple Wyatt Barnes."
...
Under the reverent gazes of several disciples from the Seven Stars Sword Clan, the Roc landed in the stables next to the entrance.
The space in the middle of the stable was not spacious to begin with, and now with the Roc landing there, it beca even narrower.
The landing of the Roc startled the Seven Stars Sword Clan disciples serving as stablen in the stables.
"What is that?"
Several disciples of the Seven Stars Sword Clan ca over with curious expressions.
"Sect Leader!"
A sharp-eyed disciple of the Seven Stars Sword Clan recognized Sect Leader Foxsong, exclaid in surprise, and looked respectfully at him.
The others quickly ca to their senses and respectfully saluted him.
Sect Leader Foxsong, the Leader of the Seven Stars Sword Clan, rarely made public appearances.
However, a year ago, due to the incident of the death of the ’Heavenly Authority Peak’ Peak Master ’Wade Williams’, ’Sect Leader Foxsong’ appeared at the top of Heavenly Pivot Peak, and many disciples of the Seven Stars Sword Clan saw him.
The disciple who recognized Sect Leader Foxsong was also present at the ti.
"Senior disciple Wyatt Barnes!"
Very quickly, he recognized Wyatt Barnes and respectfully saluted him.
"Senior disciple Wyatt Barnes?"
At this ti, from within the stables, a voice full of surprise rose.
Wyatt Barnes could see.
A familiar figure erged from inside, and his face was filled with joy as he saw him, "Senior disciple Wyatt Barnes, really it’s you!"
