Legend of Wyatt -
Chapter 1205: Ten Years
Chapter 1205: Chapter 1205: Ten Years
To Winnie Romero, who had lost her memory, Wyatt Barnes was her everything.
He had always been by her side, giving her warmth, giving her everything. It was only with Wyatt that she had a sense of ’home.’
And she happily enjoyed all of it.
Now, the Heaven Fortin Sect was in trouble and needed someone who could speak for it, someone who could stand in for Wyatt Barnes.
She stepped forward.
Not for the Heaven Fortin Sect, but solely for Wyatt Barnes, the man she saw as the support of her life.
To die for that man, she would have no regrets!
"Your man?"
But upon receiving Winnie Romero’s response, the expression of the young man in black darkened, as if displeased.
He had never expected that this beauty before him was already spoken for.
Whoosh!
Without knowing when, the red garments on Winnie Romero’s body became turbulent, like flames igniting. Simultaneously, a vast sea of flames indeed rose from her body, quickly transforming into a sword-shaped flame.
In her hands appeared a five-foot-long red soft sword. As she infused her strength into it, the sword began to tremble slightly, emitting a series of clear, ringing sword cries.
Above the void, the power of heaven and earth stirred, gathering into a remarkable vision.
Even though she realized she was no match for the young man in black before her, Winnie Romero had no intention of sitting idle. That was not her style.
Even though she knew she was outmatched, she was determined to fight!
"I hope you can do as you say."
Winnie Romero looked at the young man in black, her eyes devoid of any emotion. She lightly parted her cherry lips and spoke nearly word by word.
"With that little strength, you are far from being able to contend with me."
The young man in black glanced at the vision in the void above Winnie Romero’s head, shook his head, and said. Such a level of power posed no threat to him.
"However, that’s not important... because I’ve changed my mind."
A rare smile crept onto the young man in black’s lips, a sinister smile that made one shudder at the sight.
"Hm?"
Upon hearing this, Winnie Romero’s brows slightly furrowed.
The rest also turned their gaze upon the young man in black, all wondering what he intended to do next.
Could it be that he had regrets?
Or did he plan to annihilate the entire Heaven Fortin Sect?
For a moment, many faces changed color, showing signs of fear and alarm.
"I can spare you, I can also spare the Heaven Fortin Sect, and even Wyatt Barnes."
The young man in black stared intently at Winnie Romero, his gaze causing her face to darken, sensing something bad was about to happen.
"Conditions."
Winnie Romero spoke sparingly.
"You, become my woman!"
The young man in black’s gaze did not waver as he spoke fervently.
Whoosh!
As soon as the young man in black spoke these words, the entire place was abuzz.
This disciple of the Martial Emperor was actually trying to steal the woman of their Sect Leader?
It was well known that the woman in red, ’Winnie Romero,’ was recognized as the wife of the Sect Leader of the Heaven Fortin Sect, a fact that not even Winnie herself had ever denied.
"In your dreams!"
Two angry shouts erupted almost simultaneously, as Kamari Gold and Fill Bear, upon hearing the young man in black’s words, glared fiercely at him.
Was this guy really trying to steal their master, the Young Master’s woman?
"Shut up!"
The young man in black’s face darkened, and as he raised his hand, a vast power swept out, blasting Kamari Gold and Fill Bear away, leaving only eye-catching trails of blood in their wake, like blood-red fireworks blooming across the sky.
"I’ll give you another chance. If you dare to speak out of turn again, I’ll take your lives!"
The young man in black said coldly.
This time, he merely taught Kamari Gold and Fill Bear a lesson, severely injuring them without taking their lives.
"What do you say?"
When the young man in black looked again toward Winnie Romero, the coldness on his face vanished, replaced by a smile.
"Impossible."
At that moment, Winnie Romero’s eyes sharpened, and the frost on her face seemed to thicken, giving off waves of coldness that rejected others from thousands of miles away.
"What? You want to see all the members of the Heaven Fortin Sect die?"
The young man in black laughed, his brilliant smile laced with the threat behind his words.
As soon as he spoke, the majority of the Heaven Fortin Sect’s elders and disciples changed color. They thought they could escape disaster, but the situation turned on them, plunging their hearts from heaven straight into Hell.
At the same time, many of the elders and disciples of the Heaven Fortin Sect looked toward Winnie Romero, all wanting to know how she would respond.
"As you wish."
Confronted with the young man in black’s threat, Winnie Romero seemed unbothered, responding indifferently.
The young man in black was taken aback, having never expected Winnie Romero to respond like that. He couldn’t help but ask, "Aren’t you supposed to protect the Heaven Fortin Sect for your man? Are you reneging now?"
Winnie Romero did not respond to the young man in black, but her fearless gaze indirectly answered him.
Her meaning was simple.
Death, she did not fear.
But to be his possession, impossible.
She would rather die than be unfaithful to the man she adored, Wyatt Barnes.
"Okay, okay..."
The young man in black took a deep breath, and his consecutive utterances of ’okay’ caused many of the Heaven Fortin Sect elders and disciples present to hang on with bated breath.
"In my entire life, this is the first time I’ve met a woman like you that has made me feel this way," said the black-clad youth, also known as Isaac Campbell, a disciple personally taught by the Martial Emperor from the Lost Stone Forest, his gaze at Winnie Romero growing increasingly bright and fervent. "Therefore, regarding today’s matter, I am willing to take a step back."
"I can choose not to kill Wyatt Barnes, or any other person from the Heaven Fortin Sect... However, you must return with me to the ’Lost Stone Forest!’"
Isaac Campbell’s eyes sparkled as he spoke directly, "Ten years. You only need to stay in the Lost Stone Forest for ten years... During these ten years, I will pursue you, and before I win your heart, I will not lay a finger on you."
"After ten years, if you still reject me, I will grant you your freedom."
As he spoke, his face was full of confidence, confident in his own ability to win over the woman before him in a decade.
Who was he?
A direct disciple of the Martial Emperor!
The foremost among the disciples under the Martial Emperor Kingston Stone.
Given ten years, if he could not win over a woman, he might as well hit his head against a wall in embarrassment.
Ten years!
With Isaac Campbell’s words, the scene once again descended into utter silence.
"Miss Winnie, don’t agree to him."
Having taken the Pill Medicine to heal, Kamari Gold and Fill Bear, whose strength had somewhat recovered, used their combined Origin Force to resonate with a voice that pleaded with Winnie Romero.
Ten years.
For a martial artist, it might not seem like a long time.
But for a young couple in love, it was too long, long enough for one person to forget another, not completely but enough to fade from memory.
"Yes, Miss Winnie, you must think this over," added Three Graham and Pearl Rowan.
Although they too wished to survive, the idea of being saved by a young, beautiful woman sacrificing a decade of her life was more than they could bear; they would rather die.
"This is my ultimatum... If you are unwilling, I will kill all of the Heaven Fortin Sect members! And then I will wait here for a while, until Wyatt Barnes returns, and I will kill him."
Isaac Campbell’s voice carried a chill as he looked at Winnie Romero, who had not responded for a while. His patience was running thin.
"Swear an oath," finally replied Winnie Romero, her autumnal eyes sparkling as she gave Isaac Campbell a cursory glance.
"What? You doubt the word of a disciple personally taught by the Martial Emperor?" Even though Isaac Campbell’s words seemed dismissive, his heart swelled with joy because this indicated that the red-clad woman in front of him had considered accepting his condition, even following him.
Accordingly, Isaac Campbell readily swore an oath bound by the ’Nine-Nine Thunder Tribulation.’
Boom! Boom! Boom!
...
In a moment, nine claps of thunder resounded, affirming the oath made by Isaac Campbell.
"Lead the way!"
Seeing that Isaac Campbell had made the oath, Winnie Romero spoke in a cool tone.
At first, Isaac Campbell was slow to comprehend, but once he did, he promptly began to lead the way, taking Winnie toward the northwest.
Their destination:
The Lost Stone Forest!
Isaac Campbell, with Winnie Romero in tow, left the Heaven Fortin Sect. As for Spring Sun’s ’vengeance,’ he had completely forgotten about it.
To him, the life or death of Spring Sun meant nothing.
His concern was the heart-stirring beauty before him.
For the next ten years, he planned to use every means possible to win over the heart of this peerless beauty and make her truly his woman.
However, in Winnie Romero’s eyes, all this was but a temporary measure.
She believed that her Brother Barnes would not need ten years to advance his power, after which he would come rescue her from the Lost Stone Forest.
To her, this was merely a time for cultivation in the ’Lost Stone Forest.’
She wasn’t worried about Isaac Campbell forcing himself on her because she had a way to control her power and self-destruct before he succeeded.
She would rather die than betray her Brother Barnes, the man she regarded as her ’future husband.’
It was with all these preparations in mind that she had decided to go with Isaac Campbell.
Her choices now were twofold.
One, to wait for Brother Barnes to rescue her, or after ten years, hope that Isaac Campbell would keep his promise and let her leave.
The other option was death.
Nevertheless, she harbored no regrets.
"For ten years of my youth, I exchange your lifetime of peace."
In her mind quickly flashed the image of a figure clad in purple, as a rare smile graced her lips, warm and tender.
Isaac Campbell left with Winnie Romero, leaving behind a group of silent elders and disciples of the Heaven Fortin Sect, along with the two Vice Sect Leaders, Kamari Gold, and Fill Bear.
Their expressions were now grim.
Even among the elders and disciples of the Heaven Fortin Sect.
Although they were relieved to have survived, the thought that their survival came at the cost of their Sect Leader’s beloved offering up ten years of her youth filled them with guilt.
"When the Young Master returns and learns of this matter, I’m afraid he won’t be able to accept it," said Kamari Gold with a dark expression and heavy heart.
"If Young Master returns, he will surely head straight to the ’Lost Stone Forest’!" Fill Bear knew Wyatt Barnes better than anyone else present.
Yet Wyatt Barnes remained unaware of this all as he hastened back on the road home.
