Legend of Wyatt
Chapter 1213: Greed

Chapter 1213: Chapter 1213: Greed

Throughout the Lost Stone Forest, only Kingston Stone, the Martial Emperor, could possibly withstand a strike from him after his "Devil Transformation".

Even his earlier move, which was not at full strength, was not something that Martial Emperor powerhouses could withstand, even those at the pinnacle of the Martial Emperor Realm.

"Young man, your strength is very strong."

The tall and mighty figure of Kingston Stone, the Martial Emperor, looked at Wyatt Barnes with a solemn face, "As a ’Martial Emperor powerful warrior’ of the Cloud Skies Continent, I have never heard of you... Who exactly are you?"

Martial Emperor powerful warrior?

As soon as Kingston Stone, the Martial Emperor, said this, including Zhao and Sun, two Martial Emperor personal disciples, and a group of newly arrived Martial Emperor disciples and disciples, all had a moment of realization, "So he really is a Martial Emperor powerful warrior."

Only including Isaac Campbell, who had been on the scene early, did a group of Martial Emperor disciples and disciples know.

The purple-robed youth in front of them was not a ’Martial Emperor powerful warrior’.

At least, the him a moment ago was not any sort of Martial Emperor powerful warrior.

His strength had become so powerful solely because of the shard of the stone stele in his hand.

His current strength all originated from that strange stone stele.

"If I can obtain this stele... does that mean I, too, can possess a powerful strength like his current one?"

The wariness on Isaac Campbell’s face completely vanished as his gaze fell on the Demon Sealing Monument in Wyatt Barnes’s hand, replaced by sheer greed, wishing he could have the Demon Sealing Monument for himself.

"Perhaps, after I get this stone stele, the enhancement it grants me will be even greater than his! After all, without this stele, his strength isn’t even as great as mine."

Thinking to this point, Isaac Campbell’s heart grew even hotter.

"Get out of the way!"

Perceiving that his consciousness was disappearing at a rapid pace, or rather, noticing that his consciousness was continuously being suppressed by the power from the Demon Sealing Monument, Wyatt Barnes let out a hoarse shout and then struck out once more.

Whoosh!

This time, he used the Demon Sealing Monument in his hand, streaking towards Kingston Stone, the Martial Emperor before him.

For him, Kingston Stone, the Martial Emperor was undoubtedly a major obstacle to his goal of killing Isaac Campbell.

To kill Isaac Campbell, he had to remove this barrier first.

Boom!

A loud bang spread out as Kingston Stone, the Martial Emperor once again hastily took on Wyatt Barnes’s strike, followed by a vast, rolling shockwave that swept through.

This time, the prepared crowd was not too severely affected.

However, the scene before them shocked everyone present.

With the Demon Sealing Monument in Wyatt Barnes’s hand streaking out, Kingston Stone, the Martial Emperor, though having withstood the hit, was blasted away like an arrow from the string, even vomiting a mouthful of blood.

Kingston Stone, the Martial Emperor, flew out tens of meters before finally stabilizing and standing firm, his face alternately pale and flushed, clearly injured.

Silence.

The entire place was deadly still.

"Has Master... been injured?"

The scene unfolding before him caused Isaac Campbell’s pupils to shrink and his complexion to change drastically.

He had never imagined that his master, who he saw as the very model of the ’Undefeated War God’, would actually be injured today.

Moreover, by a leader from a lower-tier first-rate force whom he had always looked down upon.

"Though Master has not yet utilized spiritual artifacts... isn’t the stone stele in Wyatt Barnes’s hands too bizarre?"

Looking again at the Demon Sealing Monument in Wyatt Barnes’s hands, Isaac Campbell felt a chill crawl over his scalp, and the greed in his eyes grew even stronger.

Now, he was increasingly aware of the extraordinariness of the stone stele in Wyatt Barnes’s hands.

"Master!"

The other two personal disciples of the Martial Emperor, upon seeing Kingston Stone, the Martial Emperor, injured, all showed a change in color.

"Martial Emperor, Sir!"

The other Martial Emperor disciples and disciples, witnessing the scene before them, all showed shocked and disbelief on their faces. Kingston Stone, the Martial Emperor, whom they saw as almost invincible, was injured?

For a moment, Wyatt Barnes became the center of everyone’s attention.

"Who exactly is he? How can he be so strong!"

"This Martial Emperor powerful warrior seems like even the Martial Emperor, Sir, doesn’t recognize him."

"Could it be that he is one of the hidden Martial Emperor powerful warriors?"

...

A group of Martial Emperor disciples and disciples who had recently arrived all speculated, filled with curiosity about Wyatt Barnes’s identity.

In the end, they commonly believed:

Wyatt Barnes was a hidden Martial Emperor powerful warrior.

On the Cloud Skies Continent, there are no more than ten known Martial Emperor powerful warriors, yet among these ten, they had never heard of such a person.

With purple hair and blood-red eyes, he hardly seemed human.

"He may be a Demon Emperor powerful warrior."

Soon, another speculated.

Demon Emperor!

A presence not inferior to the ’Martial Emperor’, formed through the cultivation of ’Demon Beasts’. Across the Cloud Skies Continent, there were more than ten known powerful Demon Emperors.

A few more than the publicly known powerful Martial Emperors.

"I have only heard of a few Demon Emperor powerhouses, but none of their characteristics resemble his."

A Martial Emperor disciple said.

"You are all mistaken."

At this moment, a group of Martial Emperor disciples and disciples who had arrived earlier shook their heads, "He is neither a Martial Emperor powerhouse nor a Demon Emperor powerhouse."

"Not a Martial Emperor powerhouse? Not a Demon Emperor powerhouse? You must be joking."

Instantly, a group of newly arrived Martial Emperor disciples and disciples furrowed their brows, their faces filled with disbelief.

How could the being who injured their ’Kingston Stone Martial Emperor’ in the Lost Stone Forest be neither a Martial Emperor nor a Demon Emperor?

What a joke!

"Perhaps his current strength is on par with Martial Emperor powerhouses, Demon Emperor powerhouses... but before he took out that stone stele, he was absolutely not a Martial Emperor or Demon Emperor powerhouse!"

"That’s right. Before he took out that stone stele, he couldn’t even defeat Senior Brother Campbell."

"According to Senior Brother Campbell, he is merely the leader of a lower-tier first-rate force. His current strength all comes from that bizarre stone stele in his hands! We all saw it with our own eyes."

...

A group of Martial Emperor disciples and disciples who had been present at the scene chattered away.

For a moment, everyone, including two direct disciples of the Martial Emperor who had just arrived, was stunned.

They never imagined that the truth would turn out like this.

"Damn it! They actually spoke about it."

Isaac Campbell’s face turned ugly. He didn’t expect the first group of Martial Emperor disciples and disciples to reveal the matter of the stone stele in Wyatt Barnes’s hands, completely disrupting his plans.

You see, he had planned to lay claim to that stone stele after his master killed Wyatt Barnes.

Although his master had been injured by Wyatt Barnes, he had full confidence in his master, who had not yet used a spiritual weapon.

His master’s spiritual weapon was an ’Emperor Grade Spiritual Weapon,’ a level above Grade One spiritual weapons.

Emperor Grade Spiritual Weapons, considering the whole Cloud Skies Continent, were few and far between.

It was said to be a divine weapon passed down from ten thousand years ago.

Over the years, many outstanding Artifact Refiners had been born, but none could create an Emperor Grade Spiritual Weapon.

He believed that once his master used the Emperor Grade Spiritual Weapon, he would be able to kill Wyatt Barnes.

At that time, he could reap the benefits and take the stone stele from the dead Wyatt Barnes for himself.

He had an intuition.

As long as he got his hands on that stone stele, his life would undergo earth-shattering changes.

Now, however, everyone knew about the unusual stone stele in Wyatt Barnes’s hands. Even if Wyatt Barnes died, it would be highly unlikely for him to claim the stele for himself.

Even his master would probably covet that stone stele.

As it turned out, Isaac Campbell guessed correctly.

When the injured Kingston Stone Martial Emperor heard the words of the group of Martial Emperor disciples and disciples, and learned about the extraordinariness of the ’Demon Sealing Monument’ in Wyatt Barnes’s hands, he couldn’t help but light up with eagerness.

"A person whose strength originally couldn’t match my direct disciple ’Isaac Campbell’ acquired strength surpassing mine without using a spiritual weapon by utilizing that stone stele?"

"I originally thought you were a Martial Emperor powerhouse or a Demon Emperor powerhouse... it turns out, all your power comes from that stone stele in your hands."

Kingston Stone Martial Emperor looked at the Demon Sealing Monument in Wyatt Barnes’s hands, his eyes brimming with intense greed.

Although he was a Martial Emperor powerhouse, few things could move his heart.

But once something did move him, he would go to great lengths to compete for it.

Now, the stone stele in the hands of this purple-robed youth had moved him.

"This stone stele is so miraculous... once I obtain it and its power, I might become the number one powerhouse in Cloud Skies Continent! Then, those guys will all have to act according to my mood."

Thinking this, the passion of Kingston Stone Martial Emperor grew stronger, and he desperately wanted to obtain the Demon Sealing Monument in Wyatt Barnes’s hands.

’Those guys’ naturally referred to the other Martial Emperor powerhouses and Demon Emperor powerhouses on Cloud Skies Continent.

"From today onwards, the stone stele in your hands will belong to me, Kingston Stone Martial Emperor."

Unknowingly, Kingston Stone Martial Emperor had produced a seven-foot-long spear in his hand, which, upon its appearance, was infused with an immense, rolling force.

With a quiver of the spear, stones shattered and the heavens were shocked!

Above the void, the forces of heaven and earth stirred, precisely due to the power of Kingston Stone Martial Emperor.

Just now, he had almost grasped the strength of the purple-robed youth in front of him. Without using a spiritual weapon, he was not as strong as this purple-robed youth.

But once he used a spiritual weapon, he was confident he could definitely win!

However, faced with the greedy Kingston Stone Martial Emperor, Wyatt Barnes paid him no attention and instead turned into a blurry shadow right in front of him, dashing towards the distance.

In that direction stood a lone woman in red, Winnie Romero.

"Winnie, come with me... I can’t hold on much longer."

As Wyatt Barnes flew towards Winnie Romero, he hurriedly used his Origin Force to send her an alert warning.

Now, he could feel his consciousness growing increasingly frail.

Before long, he feared that he would be wholly suppressed by the power of the Demon Sealing Monument!

At that time, whether or not his consciousness would awaken again was uncertain.

For this reason, he felt the urgency of time; he must rescue Winnie as soon as possible, and as for other matters, they seemed unimportant for the moment.

"Master, he’s trying to escape!"

Seeing Wyatt Barnes turned into a blurry shadow that even he could hardly catch, racing towards where Winnie Romero was, Isaac Campbell guessed Wyatt Barnes’s intention and urgently warned Kingston Stone Martial Emperor.
