Legend of Wyatt
Chapter 1103: Seclusion for Three Months!

Chapter 1103: Chapter 1103: Seclusion for Three Months!

"Are you feeling better now?"

After the Gagnon Family’s top brass had left, Wyatt Barnes looked at Winnie Romero, who had just taken a Grade One Return-Life Pill, with a face full of concern.

"Mhm."

Winnie Romero nodded gently. At this moment, the icy frost on her breathtakingly beautiful face thawed a little, inadvertently revealing a faint blush.

"Why... Why did you do that just now?"

Soon after, Winnie Romero’s autumnal eyes hardened as she gazed directly at Wyatt Barnes.

"What do you mean, ’do that just now’?"

Wyatt Barnes froze, unsure of what Winnie Romero was asking.

"I mean just now... If it weren’t for you acting in time against that old man, he wouldn’t have spared me."

Winnie Romero explained.

As the person involved, she couldn’t have been clearer about what had happened.

Wyatt Barnes had acted to save her.

Of course, she could see that what he did was risky, and that he might have been killed after saving her.

"I won’t let anything happen to you."

Wyatt Barnes’s reply was simple and decisive.

I won’t let anything happen to you.

Those few words caused Winnie Romero’s heart to tremble violently, followed by a profound sense of happiness.

In an instant, the way Winnie Romero looked at Wyatt Barnes softened even more.

"Besides... you acted against him earlier to save me. If something had happened to you because of that, not only would I have been unable to explain it to Uncle Romero, but I also would never be able to forgive myself in this lifetime."

Wyatt Barnes then said with a serious face.

Winnie Romero nodded gently, and now, facing Wyatt Barnes, the frost on her exquisitely beautiful face was almost completely gone.

"Young Master, what happened?"

However, when a loud voice came from outside, late on the scene, the frost on Winnie Romero’s face rose again, emitting a cold chill.

Clearly, she only accepted Wyatt Barnes, refusing anyone other than him.

"It’s nothing... just a minor issue."

Wyatt Barnes said with a light smile.

"A minor issue?"

Fill Bear, seeing the bloodstains all over the hall, frowned. How could it be a minor issue with so much blood?

"Young Master, are you hurt?"

Fill Bear then looked at Wyatt Barnes with a face full of concern, anxiously asking.

"That’s someone else’s blood."

Wyatt Barnes stated.

Of course, he added silently in his mind, "Most of it is someone else’s."

Someone else’s blood, which was none other than Randy Gagnon’s blood.

As for the rest, it was his own, after being wounded by Forest Coldring. In order not to worry Fill Bear, he did not elaborate.

Upon hearing this, Fill Bear finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"I’m going back to my room to cultivate."

After greeting Wyatt Barnes, Winnie Romero promptly left, coming in a hurry and going just as quickly.

"Young Master, I’ll go back to cultivate as well."

After confirming Wyatt Barnes was okay, Fill Bear was also eager to return to his cultivation. He now just wanted to quickly enhance his cultivation so he could better assist the Young Master.

"Go ahead."

Wyatt Barnes nodded.

After Winnie Romero and Fill Bear both left, the hall was left with only Wyatt Barnes.

"Holland Keller, Forest Coldring!"

In an instant, Wyatt Barnes’s expression turned utterly grim, his eyes flickering with a piercing cold light, ready to devour his enemies.

If possible, he wished to personally take down those two men!

Holland Keller, from the moment he threatened Wyatt with his loved ones, violated his "taboo," Wyatt considered him as good as dead, and wouldn’t let Keller live given the chance.

As for Forest Coldring, though merely a "lackey," daring to harm Winnie meant he would not be spared either.

"Strength... My strength is still too weak!"

Now, Wyatt Barnes only resented his own weakness.

If he had the strength to overpower Forest Coldring today, none of this would have happened.

"Continue to comprehend the ’Profound Mysteries’ through the ’Mystique Fragments’... As long as I can grasp the ’Wind Profound Mystery’, the ’Sword Mystique’, and the ’Earth Mystique’, my strength will rise to another level!"

"By then, my Origin Force will also transform, officially stepping into the Martial Emperor Realm!"

"Once into the Martial Emperor Realm, the domineering medicinal force of the Nirvana Pill hidden deep within my dantian will also erupt... Then, my cultivation will advance by leaps and bounds every single day!"

Muttering to himself, Wyatt Barnes’s eyes gleamed brightly, and eventually, he left the hall like a gust of wind, heading back to his room.

Back in his room, Wyatt Barnes immediately took out three Mystique Fragments and began to comprehend three different ’Profound Mysteries’.

"Once the three ’realms’ complete their transformation into ’Profound Mysteries’, and I step into the ’First Level of the Martial Emperor Realm’... My strength will undergo a drastic change!"

Wyatt Barnes could be absolutely certain of this point.

At present, the three "realms" he was preparing to elevate, any one of which, once promoted to "Profound Mystery", even if only a "First-level Emperor Realm Profound Mystery", would result in an additional strength equivalent to one thousand ancient Horned Dragons.

Compared to before the breakthrough, it was an entire doubling of his strength!

With three Profound Mysteries, the additional strength would be three thousand ancient Horned Dragon units!

Moreover, simply by comprehending the "First-level Emperor Realm Wind Profound Mystery", he could thereby generate the "First-level Emperor Realm Fire Profound Mystery", which was akin to simultaneously raising four "realms" to the level of "Profound Mysteries".

Four "Nine Transforming Void Realms" compared to four "First-level Emperor Realm Profound Mysteries".

The former was comparable to the force of four thousand ancient Horned Dragons, whereas the latter was comparable to eight thousand, beyond compare.

And the latter, once coupled with the "earth force" borrowed from the "First-level Emperor Realm Earth Profound Mystery" as well as the additional power derived from "fire boosted by Momentum Wind" within the "First-level Emperor Realm Fire Profound Mystery".

Would be comparable to a staggering ten thousand ancient Horned Dragon units!

All of this was merely the power granted by the "Profound Mysteries".

The Origin Force at the "First-level Martial Emperor Realm", once unleashed, was comparable to the force of two thousand ancient Horned Dragons, with an Emperor Grade spirit sword to amplify the "doubling" of force, equal to another two thousand ancient Horned Dragon units.

By that time, with the additional power of the "Nine High-level Thunder Realm", Wyatt Barnes, when exerting his full strength, would be able to display the equivalent of fifteen thousand ancient Horned Dragon units!

Of course, the heavenly and earthly phenomena would undergo earth-shattering changes as well.

As "one ancient Horned Dragon phantom" would replace the "ten thousand ancient elephant phantoms", new heavenly and earthly phenomena would emerge, replacing the "ten thousand ancient Horned Dragon phantoms".

"Fifteen thousand ancient Horned Dragon units... should be almost enough to contend with that Forest Coldring! However, actually defeating him still falls short."

Wyatt Barnes thought to himself.

Although his spiritual power could not discern the specifics of Forest Coldring’s cultivation level, Wyatt was able to infer an approximation of Forest Coldring ’s overall strength from his successive actions.

"When Forest Coldring and the old patriarch fought, neither of them used spirit weaponry... However, one can roughly estimate that their strength is above the level of a few thousand ancient Horned Dragons."

"Their cultivation level should be around the ’Fourth-level Martial Emperor Realm’."

Wyatt Barnes speculated.

At that time, when Forest Coldring and Alaric Gagnon sparred, they both fought fiercely, with all their might.

Their transient display of power was too fast for the distressed forces of earth and sky to coalesce into heavenly and earthly phenomena.

So, they did not reveal their full capabilities.

All this was merely Wyatt Barnes’s assessment.

However, Wyatt Barnes, after all, bore the dual-life memories of the Reincarnated Martial Emperor, and had an exceptional eye for these matters; he trusted his judgment to be very close to accurate.

Days went by.

The residence where Wyatt Barnes dwelt seemed to have returned to its tranquil state.

The Gagnon Family patriarch, Randy Gagnon, still occasionally visited, bringing with him one Transforming Void Realm fruit after another that had been acquired through bounties.

Most of these spirit fruits ended up in the hands of Winnie Romero.

As for those spirit fruits that Winnie had consumed before, they were now in the hands of Fill Bear.

Of course, Fill Bear had not yet broken through to the Transforming Void Realm, so he had no immediate use for these spirit fruits.

At present, Fill Bear was struggling on his journey through the Cave Void Realm.

He had now comprehended the "Nine High-level Sword Realm" and was just a step away from the "Sword Profound Mystery", an advancement nearly impossible without "Profound Mystery fragments".

Therefore, he was currently focused on improving his cultivation level, piling up his strength using the "spirit fruits".

Both Winnie Romero and Fill Bear’s strengths were continually improving.

As for Wyatt Barnes.

Ever since Holland Keller and Forest Coldring left that day, he had sequestered himself in his room, only leaving once.

That one time he stepped out, he instructed the maids to hand over any "spirit fruits" delivered by Randy Gagnon in the future to Winnie Romero and then did not leave again.

"Elder Barnes has not yet ended his seclusion?"

Many of the Gagnon Family elders who came to Wyatt Barnes’ door seeking guidance in the path of alchemy arrived in high spirits but left looking as deflated as frosted eggplants.

Initially, many of the Gagnon Family elders thought that Wyatt Barnes would be in secluded cultivation for only a few days.

However, over the next three months, none of them saw Wyatt Barnes, eventually confirming that he was in deep secluded cultivation.

Suddenly, the Gagnon Family’s cadre of alchemist elders stopped visiting and instead stayed at home, waiting for news.

They had already arranged with the several maids at Elder Barnes’ residence so that upon Elder Barnes ending his seclusion, the maids would inform them immediately.

"Elder Barnes still hasn’t ended his seclusion?"

Randy Gagnon, the Gagnon Family patriarch who once again visited Wyatt Barnes’ residence, couldn’t help but smile bitterly upon learning that Wyatt Barnes had yet to leave seclusion, and then turned to leave.

"That ’bounty’ can probably no longer continue... The Grade One Return-Life Pills that Elder Barnes previously concocted are almost completely exchanged."

Randy Gagnon had just stepped outside the residence and sighed.

"He asked me to give this to you."

It was at this moment that an indifferent voice reached Randy Gagnon’s ears.

Following that, Randy Gagnon only heard the piercing sound of gusting wind behind him, as if something was soaring through the air toward him.

Turning hurriedly, he reached into the air, and, with a helping hand, intercepted the object slicing through the sky, only to find it was an unclaimed Storage Ring.

"It’s her."

Randy Gagnon caught a glimpse out of the corner of his eye of a fiery red figure disappearing into the depths of the residence.

This figure was not unfamiliar to him.

Winnie Romero.

Elder Barnes’s beloved confidante, someone willing to sacrifice her life for Wyatt Barnes, and was suspected to be a formidable "Demon Emperor".
