Chapter 1152: Chapter 1152 Search

Hearing the old man’s words, not only Wyatt Barnes but also Winnie Romero and Fill Bear couldn’t help but be startled.

The two Vice Peak Masters of Sun Peak glanced at the old man and frowned slightly, but ultimately chose not to say much more.

Their strength was not as great as the old man’s, after all.

Even if they were stronger than the old man, daring to object at this moment could offend that purple-robed young man, and then they might not even realize how they died.

They still vividly remembered the scene of Hunter Sun and his son’s murder.

"Why would you ask that?"

Wyatt Barnes came back to his senses and looked at the old man with a calm face, asking faintly.

It was as if the position of the Sect Leader of the prestigious Yin and Yang Sect held little allure for him.

In fact, he really wasn’t interested in it.

"Because I think you are quite suited to becoming our Sect Leader of the Yin and Yang Sect... With your strength, plus my assistance, your becoming the Sect Leader is almost a certainty," the old man continued, his words brimming with pride.

And he indeed had the capability.

Apart from being the Protector Elder of Sun Peak, he was also the junior brother of the previous generation’s Peak Master of Sun Peak, holding absolute say in the matters of Sun Peak.

His status in Sun Peak was not inferior to Hunter Sun, the recently killed Peak Master of Sun Peak.

"Is that so?"

Wyatt Barnes gave the old man a deep look. "As far as I know, the Yin and Yang Sect doesn’t consist of Sun Peak alone. Can you, a member of Sun Peak, represent Shadow Peak?"

"Shadow Peak?"

The old man was momentarily taken aback, then laughed, "Shadow Peak is now virtually non-existent... As long as you agree, I alone can help you subdue it."

"Oh?"

Hearing what the old man said, Wyatt Barnes suddenly became interested and asked, his eyes flashing: "I heard that the Peak Master of Shadow Peak and a Vice Peak Master are in seclusion, healing their injuries... Are you planning to plunder amidst the chaos?"

"Plunder amidst chaos?"

The old man shook his head, "Not really. Shadow Peak’s Peak Master, along with that Vice Peak Master of Shadow Peak, were killed by Hunter Sun not long ago... If you claim Hunter Sun’s Storage Ring as your own, you might even find the Storage Ring from Shadow Peak’s Peak Master."

The old man spoke with calmness, as if he was completely detached from the matter.

Upon hearing this, Wyatt Barnes’s expression darkened slightly.

If he remembered correctly,

the Vice Peak Master of Shadow Peak in seclusion seemed to be the master of his two fiancées.

Killed by Hunter Sun?

"Shadow Peak’s Peak Master was... killed by the Peak Master?"

For a moment, the two Vice Peak Masters of Sun Peak were dumbfounded, completely confused.

What was their Peak Master trying to do?

However, considering their Peak Master was now dead as well, they had no one to hold to account even if they wanted to.

"Why did Hunter Sun kill them?" Wyatt Barnes asked in a heavy tone.

"Because he wanted to become the Sect Leader of the Yin and Yang Sect! It is rare in the history of the Yin and Yang Sect to have a ’Sect Leader’... as a Sect Leader can only emerge when the strength of a Peak Master of either Shadow Peak or Sun Peak completely overpowers the other," the old man explained slowly.

"In this generation of the Yin and Yang Sect, Hunter Sun, as the Peak Master of Sun Peak, was nearly on par with Shadow Peak’s Peak Master... Therefore, to become the Sect Leader of the Yin and Yang Sect, he had to take advantage of Shadow Peak’s Peak Master’s injuries and kill her!"

"If he wanted to be Sect Leader, killing Shadow Peak’s Peak Master would suffice... Why did he also kill another Vice Peak Master of Shadow Peak?" Wyatt Barnes’s voice grew even lower.

The ’another Vice Peak Master of Shadow Peak’ he referred to was the master of his two fiancées.

"You mean Ella Yorke and the master of your two fiancées?" The old man guessed why Wyatt Barnes was asking and continued, "Your two fiancées’ master, although a Vice Peak Master of Shadow Peak, had a strength not inferior to that of the Peak Master of Shadow Peak!"

"If only Shadow Peak’s Peak Master were dead, she would become the new Peak Master. Then Hunter Sun still couldn’t become the Sect Leader of the entire Yin and Yang Sect."

The old man finished in one breath.

Now, Wyatt Barnes completely understood.

To Hunter Sun, the master of his two fiancées was as much a ’stumbling block’ as Shadow Peak’s Peak Master.

Only by clearing all the stumbling blocks could he have unobstructed control.

"You know quite a lot... Did you collude with Hunter Sun to kill the Peak Master of Shadow Peak and the Vice Peak Master?" Wyatt Barnes’s eyes flashed with a chilling light as he immediately focused on the old man.

Murderous intent began to arise within him.

Should the old man dare to utter a ’yes’, he would not hesitate to act and kill the old man before him.

The two Vice Peak Masters of Sun Peak also looked towards the old man, their complexions slightly gloomy.

If what the old man had just said was true, then their just-killed Peak Master of Sun Peak, Hunter Sun, was utterly insane!

"I am his uncle by way of cultivation. These matters...they were shared with me a few days ago when he wanted my assistance to ascend to the position of Sect Leader of the Yin and Yang Sect," the old man said straightforwardly, meeting Wyatt Barnes’s gaze unflinchingly.

"Elder Cloud, you just let the Peak Master do those things without holding him accountable?" One of the Vice Peak Masters of Sun Peak couldn’t help but challenge the old man.

The other Vice Peak Master of Sun Peak, though silent, also looked at the old man with a somber face.

"Accountability?" The old man glanced at the Vice Peak Master who questioned him. "How to hold him accountable? Let’s set aside whether I am strong enough to do anything to him... Even if I were stronger than him, would I be able to kill him?"

After the old man’s response, both Vice Peak Masters of Sun Peak fell silent.

"Distinguished guest, if you are willing, I can assist you in becoming the new ’Sect Leader’ of our Yin and Yang Sect!"

The old man looked at Wyatt Barnes again and said, "What, you want me to take over this mess of the Yin and Yang Sect?"

Wyatt Barnes gave the old man a meaningful glance and asked, "Or perhaps, you have some other motive?"

"Now, of the four ’Martial Emperor Realm Level Eight’ warriors in the Yin and Yang Sect, all but me are dead! The Yin and Yang Sect is in a precarious state... Only if you become our Sect Leader can the Yin and Yang Sect stabilize once again."

The old man said to Wyatt Barnes, bowing his head as he spoke, a sharp glint flashing briefly in the depths of his eyes.

Nobody, including Wyatt Barnes, saw this moment due to the old man bowing his head.

"Please become the new Sect Leader of the Yin and Yang Sect!"

"We swear to follow you unto death!"

At this moment, being reminded by the old man, the two Vice Peak Masters of Sun Peak quickly came to their senses and bowed to Wyatt Barnes in a hurry.

The current danger of the Yin and Yang Sect, having lost three of its pillars, frightened them into a cold sweat as they realized the crisis facing the sect.

Although the Yin and Yang Sect is a ’first-rate power’ in the interior of the Cloud Skies Continent, it had conflicts with some other ’first-rate powers’ during its millennia of inheritance.

If those ’first-rate powers’ knew the current state of the Yin and Yang Sect, they would undoubtedly strike to obliterate it at the first opportunity.

Only if the young man in purple became the new Sect Leader of the Yin and Yang Sect could there be a chance for the sect to survive this crisis.

However, Wyatt Barnes seemed to have perceived something and turned away, ignoring the Protector Elder of Sun Peak and the two Vice Peak Masters.

As he turned, a slight frown crossed Wyatt Barnes’ face.

"Master!"

At this moment, a golden figure arrived from afar and stopped not far in front of Wyatt Barnes. It was Kamari Gold, whom Wyatt Barnes had just sent out.

However, Kamari Gold had returned alone after his departure.

"Didn’t find them?"

Wyatt Barnes’ expression darkened.

"Kamari Gold is useless."

Kamari Gold bowed his head, feeling unworthy to face his master.

"Walk and talk."

Wyatt Barnes beckoned to Kamari Gold, then moved swiftly, speeding off in the direction Kamari Gold had just come from.

Kamari Gold hurriedly followed.

Winnie Romero and Fill Bear naturally followed as well.

The Protector Elder of Sun Peak and the two Vice Peak Masters exchanged glances and, in the end, followed suit.

"With your sense of smell, how could you lose track of them?"

As they moved, Wyatt Barnes kept his speed close to Kamari Gold’s and asked in a grave voice.

"I followed the scent left by our two mothers all the way there. The area was rife with mixed scents, and I lost track of our mothers... I’ve searched the vicinity numerous times but could not catch their scent again," Kamari Gold said helplessly.

"Did you do as I said and call out my name?"

Wyatt Barnes asked.

"I did."

Kamari Gold nodded. "I covered the area with my voice earlier, but no one responded to it."

Wyatt Barnes fell silent for a moment, then came to a stop.

Kamari Gold stopped too, following right behind Wyatt Barnes.

"What cultivation levels are my two fiancées at now?"

Soon, the three from Sun Peak, the Protector Elder, and the two Vice Peak Masters, reached them. Wyatt Barnes looked at the three and asked with a chilly voice.

"They are both at the ’First Level of the Martial Emperor Realm.’"

One of the Vice Peak Masters of Sun Peak said.

"First Level of the Martial Emperor Realm?"

Wyatt Barnes was surprised at the breakthrough of the two girls’ cultivation to the ’First Level of the Martial Emperor Realm’. However, he knew this was not the time for astonishment.

The most pressing matter was to find the two girls.

"If they were fleeing, they would not dare to fly in the open but would instead rely on the complex terrain here."

Wyatt Barnes surveyed the complex terrain and dense forest beneath him, making his guesses.

"Therefore, their speed should not be fast."

Wyatt Barnes’ eyes flashed as he spoke, "Let’s continue the search around here... If we can find them, I might consider becoming the new Sect Leader of your Yin and Yang Sect."

Wyatt Barnes’ latter words were undoubtedly directed at the three from the Sun Peak of the Yin and Yang Sect.

Hearing this, the three from Sun Peak exchanged glances, their eyes lighting up. They then split up, each darting off in a different direction.

At this time, Winnie Romero and Fill Bear arrived belatedly.

"Let’s split up and search."

After greeting them, Wyatt Barnes headed off alone, as fast as lightning.

For a moment, Winnie Romero, Fill Bear, and Kamari Gold also split up to search.

"His two fiancées... must be quite outstanding."

Winnie Romero searched the mountains and forests below, thinking to herself.

After her amnesia, on her way to the Yin and Yang Sect, she had also learned about the existence of Keer and Jovie Lee from Wyatt Barnes.
