Chapter 1120: Chapter 1120: Killing the Sect Leader of Sword Sect

Winnie Romero, since leaving the "Martial Emperor’s Secret Cache", had been following Wyatt Barnes.

This they knew very clearly.

Because of this, betraying Wyatt Barnes was tantamount to betraying Winnie Romero.

So now, when they looked at Winnie Romero, they felt somewhat guilty and ashamed.

"Winnie!"

Soon, Taoi Romero also saw Winnie Romero and quickly flew close, his face lit up with a smile.

However, his smile soon froze because he noticed that when Winnie Romero looked at him, her gaze was cold and confused, as if she were looking at a stranger.

"Wyatt, what... what’s going on?"

Taoi Romero sensed something was wrong and immediately looked at Wyatt Barnes, asking.

"Uncle Romero, Winnie has lost her past memories... But don’t worry, just give me some time, and I can help her recover," Wyatt Barnes explained and reassured at the same time.

"What?! Lost her memories? How could this happen?"

Taoi Romero’s face changed drastically, looking extremely distraught.

"You... are you my dad?"

Winnie Romero looked at Taoi Romero, her voice hesitant and filled with restraint as she asked.

"Yes! I am your dad."

Taoi Romero hurriedly responded, his face darkening as he looked at Wyatt Barnes, "Wyatt, what exactly happened? Why would Winnie suddenly lose her memory for no reason?"

"Uncle Romero, it’s a long story."

Though it was a long story, Wyatt Barnes still patiently explained everything to Taoi Romero without much reservation.

"I failed to protect Winnie properly."

After explaining everything, Wyatt Barnes sighed with a look of guilt.

"So, you’re saying... the power of the ’Spirit Fire Body’ inside Winnie is gone? No longer a threat to her?"

That was Taoi Romero’s main concern.

His daughter’s ’Spirit Fire Body’ had always been a source of worry and headache for him. Now, hearing that his daughter was no longer a ’Spirit Fire Body’, he couldn’t help but breathe a long sigh of relief.

It felt as if he had completely shed the heavy burden that had been pressing on his shoulders for years.

"Yes."

Wyatt Barnes nodded.

"Winnie really turned a misfortune into a blessing... This isn’t your fault."

A rare smile appeared on Taoi Romero’s face, "As for Winnie’s memory, I believe you will eventually find a way to help her recover."

"Uncle Romero, rest assured, I will definitely help Winnie recover her memory."

Wyatt Barnes spoke earnestly.

"But... how did those three ’second-tier forces’ Martial Emperors know you were in the Great Turdo Dynasty? How did they know you were in Crimson Heaven?"

Taoi Romero was puzzled by this.

"For that, we really have to thank the members of the Blade and Sword Sect."

Wyatt Barnes looked towards Blade Five, Sword Thirteen, the Blade Sect Leader, and the Sword Sect Leader among the Blade and Sword Sect’s high-ranking members, his face displaying a cold smile as he spoke.

Ever since Wyatt Barnes had told them that he had narrowly escaped from the hands of the three Martial Emperors, the high-ranking members of the Blade and Sword Sect had already shown incredible disbelief; to them, it seemed an impossible occurrence.

Initially, when they informed the three second-tier force Martial Emperors about Wyatt Barnes’s ’background’, they did so with the belief that Wyatt was certainly doomed.

This time, seeing Wyatt Barnes again, they were surprised.

But they just assumed that Wyatt Barnes wasn’t in the Great Turdo Dynasty at the time and hadn’t been found by the three second-tier force Martial Emperors, thus luckily escaping the disaster.

However, upon hearing what Wyatt Barnes had just told Taoi Romero, they realized.

Wyatt Barnes and Winnie Romero had luckily escaped from the hands of the three second-tier force Martial Emperors.

Of course, they didn’t know how exactly Wyatt and Winnie had managed to escape.

The most crucial part was briefly mentioned by Wyatt Barnes, only saying that he and Winnie had survived the crisis but at great cost.

Especially Winnie Romero, who had lost her memory as a result.

"Wyatt Barnes, this matter, indeed, it is our Blade and Sword Sect’s fault... this, we cannot deny."

The Blade Sect Leader sighed, remorsefully saying, "But, if we hadn’t cooperated with those three second-tier force Martial Emperors, our Blade and Sword Sect would have faced total annihilation! We had no choice."

"Yes, we had no choice."

For a moment, many high-ranking members of the Blade and Sword Sect followed suit.

"No choice?"

Wyatt Barnes’s mouth curled into an even colder smile as his gaze swept across the Blade Sect Leader, Sword Sect Leader, Blade Five, and Sword Thirteen, "I think, you all are just afraid to die, aren’t you?"

As Wyatt Barnes spoke, the Blade Sect Leader and the Sword Sect Leader’s expressions changed while Blade Five and Sword Thirteen showed looks of guilt and bitter smiles.

"Wyatt Barnes, don’t think that just because you were lucky enough to escape from the hands of the three second-tier forces, you truly believe yourself to be strong... This is the Blade and Sword Sect, not a place where you can run wild!"

The Sword Sect Leader shouted somewhat furiously.

"Not a place where I can run wild? I really didn’t see that."

Wyatt Barnes responded disdainfully.

"You’re courting death!"

Already short-tempered, the Sword Sect Leader was now provoked by Wyatt Barnes and could no longer restrain himself; his Origin Force surged as the ’Ninefold High-Level Sword Realm’ and another ’Ninefold High-Level Realm’ moved as shadows along with him.

Whoosh!

In an instant, the Sword Sect Leader seemed to transform into a giant sword, plummeting towards Wyatt Barnes as if to split him in two.

"Sect Leader, please show mercy!"

Sword Thirteen’s face changed dramatically, intending to rescue Wyatt Barnes, but it was ultimately too late.

"Idiot!"

Wyatt Barnes slowly uttered two words and, with a raise of his hand, threw a casual punch to meet the attack.

Boom!

Instantly, Wyatt Barnes’s fist burst forth with multi-colored power, employing his "Fusion Mystery."

As the Fusion Mystery unleashed and met the giant sword transformed by the Blade Sect Leader, it seemed to morph into a gigantic beast that opened its gaping maw and swallowed the sword whole.

The swirling Fusion Mystery submerged the giant sword transformed by the Blade Sect Leader in an instant, leaving no trace behind.

Whew!

Suddenly, the rampaging Fusion Mystery trembled and then disappeared from sight, as Wyatt Barnes smoothly retracted it, exercising perfect control.

Silence.

The scene was deathly quiet.

The only sounds were the heavy breathing of the Blade and Sword Sect’s higher-ups.

Was their Blade Sect Leader just killed in a single encounter?

Had they not witnessed it themselves, they would never have believed it.

"You... you’ve broken through to the ’Martial Emperor Realm’?"

Soon, the Blade Sect Leader reacted, pointing at Wyatt Barnes with trembling hands and asking with a face full of terror.

"Do you want to try it too?"

Wyatt Barnes, having just killed the Blade Sect Leader with one punch, licked his dry lips with his tongue out, his interest piqued as he looked at the Blade Sect Leader.

Upon hearing this, the latter immediately shut his mouth, not daring to utter another word.

Now, whether it was Taoi Romero, or Sword Thirteen, or Blade Five, all of them looked at Wyatt Barnes with disbelief, none having expected his strength to be so fearsome.

One punch took out the Blade Sect Leader, a being at the peak of the Void Realm.

"Since the Blade and Sword Sect has shown such lack of compassion and justice, there is no need for me to stay any longer."

Winnie Romero voiced coldly, with a hint of anger on his face as he declared his severance from the Blade and Sword Sect.

"Was I once also a disciple of the Blade and Sword Sect?"

Winnie Romero murmured to herself and then declared, "From this moment onwards, I have no further connections with the Blade and Sword Sect."

Winnie Romero and his daughter consecutively announced their departure from the Blade and Sword Sect.

"Elder, you were kind to me in the past, and I have kept it in my heart... Today, for the sake of your past kindness, I won’t make things difficult for the Blade and Sword Sect. However, with debts of gratitude and revenge now offset, we owe each other nothing further."

Wyatt Barnes looked at Sword Thirteen, his voice calm yet cold.

To tell the truth, knowing that it was the Blade and Sword Sect that disclosed his "origin" to the three major second-rate powers had truly chilled his heart.

Of course, what chilled him the most was Sword Thirteen’s attitude.

Wrapping up everything, Wyatt Barnes only recognized Sword Thirteen from among all the high-ranking members of the Blade and Sword Sect, besides the later-joined Taoi Romero, because Sword Thirteen had saved his life twice.

A favor received in a time of need should be reciprocated with a spring of water returning the favor...

Much less when it concerned saving a life?

Now, however, he just wanted to sever ties with Sword Thirteen.

"Sigh."

Sword Thirteen opened his mouth as if wanting to say something, but ultimately said nothing, simply letting out a sigh.

"Wyatt Barnes! You misunderstand my master."

Just then, a voice came, accompanied by a figure.

The person was a young man, someone not unfamiliar to Wyatt Barnes, namely ’Walter Simmons.’

"Misunderstanding?"

Wyatt Barnes frowned, his expression showing a touch of confusion.

Walter Simmons nodded and then explained, "Actually, from the beginning to the end, my master did not support disclosing your ’origin’ and didn’t want to harm you... However, our Blade Sect Leader had already known your origin well before and, disregarding my master’s advice, disclosed it."

"So, this matter, from the beginning to the end, my master had no control over it, nor did he betray you."

Walter Simmons finished in one breath.

"I’m sorry, elder."

After Walter Simmons’s words, Wyatt Barnes pondered for a moment and then regretfully glanced at Sword Thirteen, "I will repay the kindness you showed me in the past... provided that you no longer stay in this cold Blade and Sword Sect!"

"This incident, I believe, was not solely the Blade Sect Leader’s decision."

Wyatt Barnes said and began to scrutinize the somewhat guilty Blade Sect Leader and the other high-ranking members of the Blade and Sword Sect, including Blade Five.

Being scrutinized by Wyatt Barnes like this, although the high-ranking members of the Blade and Sword Sect were displeased, none of them dared to show it.

What a joke!

Hadn’t Wyatt Barnes just knocked off their Blade Sect Leader, a being at the peak of the Void Realm, with one punch?

Even if they tried to gang up on him, it would only be sending themselves to their deaths.

"Walter Simmons... this Blade and Sword Sect, cold as ice, might betray you and your family at any unpredictable moment. Come with me."

Wyatt Barnes looked at Walter Simmons, "Trust me... following me, you will have a brighter future."

"Wyatt Barnes."

Walter Simmons shook his head, "If my master had also advocated betraying you, I would definitely leave with you now... but my master did not betray you, he did not disappoint me."

"For nothing else, but for the years of teaching he has given me, I choose to stay."

Finally, a smile squeezed onto Walter Simmons’s face, a smile of no regrets and no complaints.
