Chapter 1308: The Panic of Isaac Campbell
Chapter 1308: Chapter 1308: The Panic of Isaac Campbell
The group from Thundercloud Peak resided in a vast manor surrounded by a jungle on the east side of the ’South Island’ of Mist Hidden Island.
This manor was arranged for them by the people of Mist Hidden Island.
Not far west of the manor, a figure stood in the air, gazing through the layers of jungle toward the direction of the manor.
"Isaac Campbell!"
This person was none other than ’Wyatt Barnes,’ who had just rushed over.
Wyatt Barnes came here for one purpose only: to kill Isaac Campbell and take back the Demon Sealing Monument from his hands.
The Demon Sealing Monument was originally his.
Had he not lost his senses back then and left the monument in the ’Lost Stone Forest,’ the Demon Sealing Monument would still be in his possession now.
Now, he was merely trying to retrieve what was his.
He had no good feelings towards Isaac Campbell.
If it wasn’t for Campbell taking Winnie away, he wouldn’t have chased after them to the Lost Stone Forest.
And if he hadn’t gone there, he wouldn’t have been forced to use the Demon Sealing Monument, whose third use and its ’side-effects’ nearly killed him.
To this day, the thought still sends shivers down his spine.
However, Wyatt Barnes waited half a day without seeing any sign of Isaac Campbell leaving the house.
"The thunderous Martial Emperor is no less powerful than the chill Martial Emperor... Although I’ve now broken through to the ’Second Layer of the Martial Emperor Realm,’ I have no confidence in facing him."
Wyatt knew this very well.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have chosen to lie in wait here.
If he was confident he could defeat the thunderous Martial Emperor, he would have already barged into the manor up ahead, dragged Isaac Campbell out, and killed him to take back his Demon Sealing Monument.
"Hmm?"
After some time, Wyatt noticed someone leaving the manor ahead. After identifying the person, his eyes, which had lit up abruptly, dimmed once again.
It was because the person emerging wasn’t Isaac Campbell, but one of the nine Martial Emperor disciples brought by the thunderous Martial Emperor.
As the person from Thundercloud Peak was about to leave, an idea suddenly struck Wyatt Barnes, "Waiting like this isn’t a solution... I’ll start with him."
After observing the disciple of Thundercloud Peak leaving, Wyatt quietly followed.
Soon, he intercepted the disciple of Thundercloud Peak.
"Wyatt Barnes? What do you want to do?"
Seeing Wyatt, the disciple of Thundercloud Peak was on guard. He felt an inherent dread toward the purple-clothed youth who had become number one in the martial contest of Mist Hidden Island three days ago.
"I just want to make a deal with you."
Wyatt Barnes’s eyes flashed as he spoke to the disciple of Thundercloud Peak.
"What deal?"
The disciple of Thundercloud Peak asked.
"Help me lure out Isaac Campbell... Once it’s done, I’ll give you two thousand superior original stones. How about it?"
Wyatt Barnes proposed.
Two thousand superior original stones!
Upon hearing this, the disciple’s breathing grew noticeably rapid.
He was just an ordinary Martial Emperor disciple under the thunderous Martial Emperor, not a direct disciple. For him, two thousand superior original stones were already an immense fortune.
Quickly, the disciple from Thundercloud Peak calmed his breathing and said, "Isaac Campbell is a direct disciple of the Martial Emperor. If I harm him, the Martial Emperor will not let me go..."
"Three thousand superior original stones!"
Wyatt Barnes interrupted him, "As long as you can lure him out without alarming anyone...I will kill him, eliminating future trouble!"
"At that time, with no one to bear witness, who will know it was you who lured him out for me to kill?"
Wyatt Barnes continued.
"Fine!"
When the disciple heard Wyatt’s promise of three thousand superior original stones, he could no longer suppress his greed and decisively agreed.
After all, Isaac Campbell was an object of his jealousy.
Now, with an opportunity to set him up, it was beneficial and harmless for him.
"Here are a thousand superior original stones... consider it a down payment. The remaining two thousand will be yours once the job is done. But let me remind you, don’t think about playing tricks. Otherwise, even with the protection of the thunderous Martial Emperor, I can still kill you right here."
Wyatt Barnes warned in the end, "You must have seen how much Mist Hidden Island values me three days ago... To protect me, the Grand Isle Master of Mist Hidden Island, an entity at the pinnacle of the Martial Emperor Realm, even took personal action."
"Ma... Martial Emperor Realm pinnacle?"
The disciple’s pupils shrank upon hearing this, and he was frightened by Wyatt Barnes’s words.
Three days ago, although he had realized that the powers of the Grand Isle Master of Mist Hidden Island were extraordinary, he had not imagined they would be at the ’pinnacle of the Martial Emperor Realm.’
A powerhouse like that, if they desired, could likely kill their ’thunderous Martial Emperor’ of Thundercloud Peak in the blink of an eye.
"Go."
Wyatt Barnes spoke again.
After receiving the Storage Ring containing a thousand superior original stones, the disciple turned and headed back to the manor where the group from Thundercloud Peak was staying.
As for Wyatt, he followed from afar, hiding on one side of the manor.
"I hope he really can lure out Isaac Campbell."
Hidden behind the jungle, Wyatt, looking in the direction of the manor, murmured to himself.
Before long, Wyatt Barnes saw the Thundercloud Peak disciple appear, accompanied by another person.
Just by seeing their silhouettes, he recognized that it was ’Isaac Campbell’.
After the two appeared, they left the mansion and headed north.
Wyatt Barnes did not make his move until confirming that no one was following them. He kept a distance but eventually caught up with them in a remote forest far from the mansion.
"Isaac Campbell."
After revealing his presence, Wyatt Barnes looked calmly at Isaac Campbell, his gaze cold and devoid of any emotion.
"Wyatt Barnes!"
Isaac Campbell’s face changed dramatically. He had not expected to be so unlucky as to run into Wyatt Barnes, a harbinger of doom, right after leaving the house.
Whoosh!
At that moment, he saw Wyatt Barnes raise his hand and shoot out a streak of light, heading straight towards him.
Instantly, he summoned his Origin Force and his comprehension of profound mysteries to defend himself.
But he quickly froze.
For he realized that the Thundercloud Peak disciple, who caught the streak of light shot by Wyatt Barnes, quickly fled into the distance and vanished from his sight in an instant.
When the streak of light was nearing him, he realized it was a ’Storage Ring’.
It was only then that he understood he had been deceived, "Damn it! I didn’t guard against him."
Now, he could guess what all this meant.
It must have been the Thundercloud Peak disciple who had taken benefits from Wyatt Barnes to lure him out.
Thinking of Wyatt Barnes’ formidable strength shown before his eyes three days ago, Isaac Campbell felt a chill run from the soles of his feet to the top of his head.
"Wyatt Barnes, I was wrong about what happened back then... But it was all Kingston Stone Martial Emperor who made me do it. He ordered me to capture Miss Winnie and take her to the Lost Stone Forest."
Taking a deep breath, Isaac Campbell looked at Wyatt Barnes and shifted all blame onto Kingston Stone Martial Emperor.
"Three days ago, before the start of the Mist Hidden Meeting, I met Kingston Stone Martial Emperor... His strength is inferior to mine, and on the verge of death, he told me everything to save his life."
Wyatt Barnes glanced at Isaac Campbell indifferently and spoke calmly, "Including why you betrayed the ’Lost Stone Forest’!"
Hearing Wyatt Barnes’ words, Isaac Campbell’s face changed dramatically.
Escape!
Without any hesitation, Isaac Campbell turned around to flee.
What a joke!
Now that Wyatt Barnes already knew everything, his purpose here wasn’t simply to seek revenge for the abduction of Winnie Romero, but also for that mysterious monument.
If he stayed, not only would the mysterious monument be taken away, but he himself would also be killed.
But could he escape?
In an instant, Wyatt Barnes reappeared on Isaac Campbell’s escape path, blocking his way.
"Wyatt Barnes, the thing you want, I can..."
Isaac Campbell’s face changed again and he realized he could not possibly escape under Wyatt Barnes’ watchful eyes. He immediately thought to hand over the ’Demon Sealing Monument’ to beg Wyatt Barnes to spare his life.
However, Wyatt Barnes did not intend to let him finish speaking and interrupted, "No need for further words... Today, you are undoubtedly going to die!"
As soon as the words fell, Wyatt Barnes moved swiftly, transforming into a five-colored Divine Dragon, opening its huge maw to pounce directly at Isaac Campbell, as if to devour him whole.
"No!!"
Isaac Campbell let out a desperate cry.
Boom!!
At the same moment Isaac Campbell cried out, he heard a loud explosion beside his ear.
Then, a vast and surging shockwave hit his body, sending him flying away.
Because Isaac Campbell felt certain of his death, he did not defend against Wyatt Barnes’ attack deliberately.
For that reason, he was sent flying far away.
"I’m still alive... I’m still alive!"
Ignoring the excruciating pain all over his body from the shockwave, Isaac Campbell coughed up blood while his face broke into an ecstatic expression.
His ecstasy soon settled into calm, "Logically speaking, with Wyatt Barnes’ strength, it would only take one face-to-face confrontation to blast me to pieces...but..."
When Isaac Campbell stopped himself and looked towards the distance, he spotted another figure appearing, blocking the path in front of Wyatt Barnes.
Even though they were far apart and the figure was somewhat blurred, he recognized at a glance that it was the silhouette of ’Peaky Cloud Martial Emperor’, "I hope he can kill Wyatt Barnes... otherwise, as long as this Wyatt Barnes lives, he will be a great disaster to me!"
Isaac Campbell thought to himself.
However, Isaac Campbell did not go closer but just looked on from a distance.
"This Wyatt Barnes, he wouldn’t still be hiding his strength, would he?"
Remembering how Wyatt Barnes had progressively revealed his strength three days ago and the succession of shocking revelations, a bad premonition arose in his mind, "No! I cannot stay...who knows whether Wyatt Barnes is still hiding his strength."
"If he really is concealing his true power and it’s enough to kill Peaky Cloud Martial Emperor...won’t my death be certain?"
"Escape! I must escape!"
"Just to be safe, I must escape!"
With that thought, Isaac Campbell hesitated no longer and turned to flee far away.
However, he forgot one thing.
If Wyatt Barnes truly had the power to overcome Peaky Cloud Martial Emperor, would he bother to find someone else to lure him out?
