Chapter 369: Chapter 369: Knowing it Like the Back of One’s Hand

"I truly don’t hold the Sect Leader in high regard!"

These words from Wyatt Barnes, like a startling thunderclap, suddenly exploded at the summit of Heavenly Pivot Peak, echoing in the ears of everyone present.

As soon as these words were said, the air at the scene seemed to be sucked away.

There was complete silence.

Despite the crowd on the summit of Heavenly Pivot Peak, everyone held their breaths, the quiet was eerily palpable. It was as if a sound could be heard even if a needle dropped on the ground.

A moment later.

In the high sky, Seven Stars Sword Clan’s Sect Leader ’Zeke Foxsong’ was still hovering, with his eyes closed and an expression of tranquility.

The rest of the higher echelons of the Seven Stars Sword Clan turned pale.

"This kid, he’s too reckless!"

Sunrise Peak’s Peak Master, ’Colin Clark’ furrowed his brows and cast a glance at Wyatt Barnes, filled with concern.

The graceful mature beauty gently twitched her willow-like eyebrows, her autumn-like eyes fixated on Wyatt Barnes, as if trying to discern something from him.

Standing next to the beauty, Jade Elder looked extremely worried.

She hadn’t expected Wyatt Barnes to be so audacious, bold enough to publically say he didn’t hold Sect Leader in high regard.

Suddenly.

Hiss! Hiss! Hiss! Hiss! Hiss!

...

Gasps of shock echoed one after another, permeating the entire summit of Heavenly Pivot Peak.

The disciples of the Seven Stars Sword Clan on Heavenly Pivot Peak finally came to their senses.

"Wyatt Barnes has gone mad!"

"Madman! Wyatt Barnes is simply a madman! Saying he doesn’t hold the Sect Leader in high regard right in front of him... isn’t he seeking his own death?"

"Humph! Does he really think that just because he has exceptional martial dao talent, the Sect Leader will not hold him accountable? He’s out of his mind!"

"This Wyatt Barnes, he is certainly in for a disaster today."

...

A group of disciples from the Seven Stars Sword Clan were whispering among themselves.

Some disciples of the Seven Stars Sword Clan who were standing near Wyatt Barnes and could see him were looking at him as if he were a ’dead man’.

In front of the Sect Leader and the higher echelons of the Seven Stars Sword Clan...

He says he doesn’t hold the Sect Leader in high regard?

Such words, in the entire Seven Stars Sword Clan, probably only Wyatt Barnes could say, and only he dared to.

Of course, saying such words also meant that he would have to pay a heavy price.

"Scoundrel!"

"Young Master."

Jovie Lee and Keer, who were behind Wyatt Barnes, muttered softly, a trace of worry appeared on their beautiful faces.

While they were worried, they were also somewhat confused.

Normally.

The Wyatt Barnes they knew was not an impulsive person...

Chloe Taylor stood beside Jovie Lee, her face was equally dull with surprise, her eyes full of concern as she stared at Wyatt Barnes’ retreating figure.

"Does Wyatt Barnes not care for his life?"

Max Wood, Eastern Ho and other Seven Stars Sword Clan disciples who were on good terms with Wyatt Barnes were all apprehensive for him.

Of course, some also found joy in his misfortune.

Such as Nolan Williams, and Kade Cruz.

"Wyatt Barnes, I am looking forward to seeing how you handle this unfortunate situation today."

Nolan Williams managed to stand up, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and stared at Wyatt Barnes with a cold look.

"Who would have thought, Wyatt Barnes, to dare say he doesn’t hold the Sect Leader in high regard right in front of him?"

A crazed smile crept onto Kade Cruz’s face.

"Insolent!"

In the high sky, the figure looking down at Wyatt Barnes, ’Woody Dunn’, suddenly shouted coldly, "Wyatt Barnes, you dare say you don’t hold the Sect Leader in high regard? This is a grave disrespect to the Sect Leader. According to the rules of the Seven Stars Sword Clan, you should be stripped of all your cultivation!"

Woody Dunn’s words reverberated with Origin Force fluctuations around him.

Above his head, two-thousand ancient giant elephant shadows took form, their momentum shook the sky and they appeared indomitable.

His icy eyes stared at Wyatt Barnes, his mouth twitching into a cold smile.

For him, this was a good opportunity to kill Wyatt Barnes!

Just as Woody Dunn was ready to act.

Wyatt Barnes casually spoke up, " Elder Woody Dunn, you keep insisting that I have disrespected the Sect Leader...but I don’t know when I have disrespected the Sect Leader? I would ask Elder Woody Dunn to clarify."

Wyatt Barnes was keenly aware of Woody Dunn’s murderous intent, and a cold smile spread across his lips.

This Woody Dunn, really does not know when to stop!

Wyatt Barnes’s words left everyone present speechless.

A moment ago, Wyatt Barnes had clearly stated that he did not hold the Sect Leader in high regard...

And now, he was playing dumb?

Just as most of the people were stunned by Wyatt Barnes’s words.

In the high sky, the Seven Stars Sword Clan’s Sect Leader ’Zeke Foxsong’, who had kept his eyes closed all along, finally opened his eyes.

At this moment, he looked with interest at Wyatt Barnes.

He had never met Wyatt Barnes, but he was no stranger to him.

This martial dao prodigy of the Seven Stars Sword Clan, who staged a feat unequaled in clan history, had long since earned his interest and he wanted to meet him in person.

"What is this kid up to?"

Looking at the scene before him, Zeke Foxsong was slightly intrigued, filled with curiosity.

"Hmph!"

Woody Dunn hovered in mid-air, surrounded by a flame-like Origin Force that shrouded him. He scoffed, "Wyatt Barnes, there is a saying that spilled water cannot be retrieved! Everyone witnessed what you just said, it is impossible for you to take it back now."

Wyatt Barnes chuckled, "Then I would like to ask Elder Dunn, what did I say that made you think I was greatly disrespectful to the Sect Leader?"

Woody Dunn stated solemnly, "Just now, you said you didn’t hold the Sect Leader in high regard! Isn’t this disrespect to the Sect Leader? You, don’t think you can deny this."

"So, it’s that statement."

Wyatt Barnes nodded his head, appearing to comprehend, then looked at Woody Dunn and chuckled, "Elder Dunn, so by your words, me saying that I didn’t hold the Sect Leader in high regard is greatly disrespectful?"

"Of course!"

Woody Dunn cocked his eyebrow, the Origin Force in his hand consolidated and surged, "Wyatt Barnes, you have shown great disrespect to the Sect Leader, committing a cardinal sin against the Sect... Today, I’ll be the one to eliminate you, this arrogant man!"

Woody Dunn wavered slightly as he finished his statement, intending to assault Wyatt Barnes with a downpour of attacks.

However.

In an instant, Woody Dunn’s face changed.

He realized, at this moment, two overwhelming forces extended in his direction, locking onto him tightly, causing him to dare not act recklessly.

Sunrise Peak Master, Colin Clark.

Shimmering Light Peak Master, Kinsley Cooper.

He understood clearly.

Now, with these two protecting Wyatt Barnes, unless the Sect Leader personally allows it, he cannot kill Wyatt Barnes again.

He regretted it.

If he had known, he would have immediately attacked Wyatt Barnes right after he had said those greatly disrespectful words!

At that time, Colin Clark and Kinsley Cooper had not yet set their sights on him.

He had missed the optimal opportunity.

"So, she is Keer’s Master? The Shimmering Light Peak Master?"

Wyatt Barnes’ gaze fell on the noble and graceful woman, floating beside Jade_Elder, an idea forming in his mind.

The woman was elegant and distinguished.

"Thank you, Peak Master."

Wyatt Barnes used his condensed Origin Force to speak to the woman."

The woman — also known as Shimmering Light Peak Master ’Kinsley Cooper’ — paused upon hearing Wyatt Barnes’ word, and responded using condensed Origin Force, "Why are you thanking me?"

"If not for you and Peak Master Clark, that mad dog Woody Dunn would probably already have attacked me."

Wyatt Barnes continued speaking through condensed Origin Force.

"Mad dog?"

Kingsley Cooper’s lips twitched slightly, she gave Wyatt Barnes a long look, "You must take today’s affairs seriously... The Sect Leader may value your talent, but it doesn’t mean you can act recklessly."

"Yes."

Wyatt Barnes acknowledged and then turned back to Woody Dunn, asking indifferently, "Elder Dunn, just now you claimed that my lack of regard for the Sect Leader is equated to disrespect... I wonder, do you hold the Sect Leader in high regard yourself?"

"Of course!"

Woody Dunn affirmed without any hesitation.

"So, Elder Dunn, does this mean you hold the Sect Leader in your sight, but not in your heart?"

Wyatt Barnes laughed.

Seeing Woody Dunn’s face change, wanting to refute, he had already turned to the Sword Clan Sect Leader ’Zeke Foxsong’, "Sect Leader, I believe that judging a Seven Stars Sword Clan disciple’s respect for you does not rely on formalities."

"Like me, even though I don’t hold you in my sight, I hold you in my heart and respect you from the bottom of my heart. Unlike some people... who say one thing but think something different."

At the end of his remarks, Wyatt Barnes glanced at Woody Dunn, his words were a clear allusion.

"Wyatt Barnes, stop wrongfully accusing me!"

Woody Dunn’s complexion changed, and he almost roared.

At this moment, if not for Colin Clark and Kinsley Cooper watching him, he would have loved nothing more than to tear Wyatt Barnes into thousands of pieces and reduce him to ashes!

"Enough!"

A calm voice suddenly came through, overriding Woody Dunn’s hysterical voice.

Zeke Foxsong looked at Woody Dunn distantly, "Woody Dunn, you need to cultivate your character... your impulsivity needs to change."

"Yes, Sect Leader."

Woody Dunn took a deep breath and acknowledged.

However, when he looked at Wyatt Barnes, his eyes were imbued with a frightening chill, as though nothing would satisfy him more than to kill Wyatt Barnes on the spot.

Zeke Foxsong looked at Wyatt Barnes, his eyes were calm and unwavering.

The hearts of the people present hung in suspense.

They all wanted to know.

Would the Sect Leader punish Wyatt Barnes...

After all, the statement he made was too far-fetched.

Finally.

Zeke Foxsong slowly spoke, "Wyatt Barnes, you’ve only been in the Seven Stars Sword Clan for less than two years, yet on the ’Life and Death Stage’, you successively defeated stronger opponents and killed four Outer Sect disciples... After leaving the Sect for a year, on the day of your return, you killed the Original Infant Realm First Level Inner Sect Disciple with the cultivation of the Original Pill Realm Ninth Level."

Zeke Foxsong’s tone was calm, while his voice wasn’t loud, it reached the ears of everyone present.

Everyone present was familiar with Wyatt Barnes’ accomplishments.

But saying it out loud came as a surprise to many.

"It seems that the Sect Leader has always been paying attention to Wyatt Barnes."

"That’s not strange, after all, Wyatt Barnes is our Seven Stars Sword Clan’s once-in-a-lifetime Martial Dao genius, once he grows up, his achievements wouldn’t be inferior to those ’Five Great Young Masters’."

"That’s right, with Wyatt Barnes’ talent, he’s worth the Sect Leader’s attention."

...

A group of Seven Stars Sword Clan disciples whispered among themselves.

Wyatt Barnes’ eyebrows raised.

He hadn’t expected that every action he had taken in the Seven Stars Sword Clan was patently clear to the Sect Leader.
