Legend of Wyatt
Chapter 45 Shadow-following Sword Technique

Chapter 45: Chapter 45 Shadow-following Sword Technique

"Wyatt Barnes lost but retains his honor!"

The most Lee Family students in the outer courtyard were unfazed.

After all, Wyatt’s skills are apparent, he’s a level below Ellis Lynch.

If Wyatt were also in the ninth level of the Body Tempering Realm, in their opinion, Ellis Lynch would not stand a chance against him.

Age-wise,

Wyatt is a year younger than Ellis Lynch.

Potential immeasurable!

At this time, except for the young girl standing beside Maya Lee, including Maya, everyone thought that Wyatt was going to be defeated by Ellis Lynch.

"Ellis Lynch, watch out!"

Wyatt’s voice suddenly rang out.

Whoosh!

Then, a fleeting purple sword light emanated.

Ellis Lynch was forced to stop abruptly, watching Wyatt Barnes with a wary face.

"Huh, did Wyatt just use a sword?"

"It seems like it... But he doesn’t have a sword in his hand now, where is it hidden?"

...

The Lee’s and Lynch Family’s outer courtyard students present at the scene could not figure out how Wyatt drew his sword and where he hid it.

If not for others also seeing the sword light, they might think they were seeing things.

"Ellis Lynch, I’m about to counterattack."

Wyatt’s gaze condensed as he stepped forward.

Serpent Style!

He moved swiftly, charging straight at Ellis Lynch.

Whoosh!

The purple sword light appeared again, disappearing while Ellis Lynch recoiled hastily.

"I admit defeat!"

Ellis Lynch spoke hurriedly.

Except for Keer and Maya, everyone else was stunned.

Ellis Lynch admitted defeat?

What’s going on?

"Ellis, why did you admit defeat when you were clearly having the upper hand?"

Bodhi Lynch looked at Ellis Lynch with confusion.

"If Wyatt doesn’t use his sword, I could’ve defeated him. But once he wields his sword, I’m no match for him."

Ellis’ reply was straight and clear.

"Wyatt, the speed of your sword skills has reached a level I can’t catch up with... unless I make breakthroughs in various aspects, I can’t even defend against your one sword."

Glancing at Wyatt Barnes with complexity, Ellis Lynch sighed.

The miraculous sword Wyatt’s displayed left him in admiration.

"Thank you."

Wyatt nodded, showing a bit more respect for Ellis Lynch.

He was someone who accepted defeat gracefully.

This kind of person would undoubtedly stand out in the future.

"But, one day, I will surpass your sword technique!"

Confidence sparkled in Ellis Lynch’s eyes as he said.

"I look forward to it."

Wyatt lightly smiled.

"I’ll keep my promise. You can now leave with your people from the Lee Family."

Ellis raised his eyebrows.

"Take leave."

Wyatt nodded at Ellis Lynch, then took Keer and the group of outer courtyard students from the Lee Family and left the trading market, heading towards the Lee Family mansion.

The onlookers gradually dispersed.

Their hearts each remembered a name.

Wyatt Barnes!

The Lee Family gained another outer courtyard student with strength comparable to, or even surpassing Kamden Lee.

"Ellis, you haven’t told me, why did you concede out of nowhere?"

Bodhi frowned, determined to get to the bottom of it.

The other Lynch Family outer courtyard students also stared at Ellis Lynch, they were just as puzzled.

"See for yourselves."

Ellis Lynch shook his head, then tilted it back, revealing a mark on his throat.

"This..."

The Lynch Family’s outer courtyard students were stunned.

They clearly saw.

The faint mark of a sword wound on Ellis Lynch’s throat...

"If he hadn’t held back, I would be dead today."

Ellis sighed.

"Ellis, Wyatt Barnes is too audacious. He’s just an Outer Family student of the Lee Family yet he didn’t hesitate attack you... we can get the Inner Family students to teach him a lesson."

There was a glint in Bodhi’s eye as he sneered.

"Bodhi, I’m warning you! From today on, Wyatt Barnes is my opponent. I will handle this matter myself, you better stop trying to be clever!"

Ellis’s face darkened, a chilled undertone in his voice.

"Alright."

Bodhi had never seen Ellis Lynch lose his temper before, so he hastily nodded in agreement.

Even so, his bowed head hid eyes that flickered with a sense of resentment...

On the way back, the group of people with Wyatt Barnes.

"Wyatt, how come Ellis suddenly gave up?"

"Yeah, we didn’t even see him at a disadvantage, why would he suddenly admit defeat?"

"Wyatt, is there any inside story that we don’t know about?"

...

The Lee Family’s outer courtyard students looked at Wyatt, their faces filled with confusion.

"What kind of inside story could there be, if you guys didn’t see clearly, then stop spreading rumors."

Maya Lee frowned.

"Sister Maya, do you know the reason?"

Soon, the Lee Family outer courtyard students shifted their attention to Maya.

"Didn’t you notice the faint sword mark on Ellis Lynch’s throat? That stroke was Wyatt Barnes showing mercy, only grazing the skin of his throat. If it were a bit deeper, he would have surely died!"

Only after she saw no disapproval from Wyatt Barnes, did Maya Lee start to explain.

Suddenly, the disciples of the Lee family outside were stunned.

They never expected Wyatt Barnes to be so fierce...

One stroke choked the throat!

Although, some of them have seen Wyatt Barnes display his sword skills, like the skill that severed more than ten falling leaves in one stroke, it was magical.

However, they didn’t expect that Wyatt Barnes’ sword skills, when really used in combat, would be so terrifying.

Only Wyatt Barnes knew, all his smooth moves were only because it happened unexpectedly.

When he uses the Sword Drawing Technique, if it comes unexpectedly, the power is not inferior to the Profound Level high-ranking martial skill of the complete realm.

Once they returned to the Lee family mansion, everyone dispersed.

Wyatt Barnes and Keer greeted Maya Lee and then left.

"I wonder if he would be willing to teach me the Sword Drawing Technique."

Maya Lee had always been focused on sword skills and had mastered the Profound-Level, lower-level Shadow Staying Sword Technique to the Full Circle Realm.

As a branch family disciple, if she wanted to further improve her sword skills, she could only wait until she became an Inner Courtyard disciple and chose a Profound-Level middle-rank sword skill from the second floor of the Ancient Weapon Pavilion.

During this period, she learned from Keer about the power of the Sword Drawing Technique, which is comparable to Profound-Level middle-grade sword skill.

If it comes unexpectedly, it is even comparable to a Profound-Level high-level sword skill!

Returning home, Wyatt Barnes immediately lay down on the bed, spreading out.

After practicing his body technique martial skills for the day and engaging in combat with Ellis Lynch, Wyatt Barnes felt a little tired.

The girl sat in front of the bed, gently kneading his legs for him.

Ah!

Wyatt Barnes couldn’t help but let out a sigh of relief.

"Keer, is there something on your mind? Are you still thinking of yourself as an outsider?"

Wyatt Barnes noticed the girl’s hesitation and asked with a smile.

"Young Master, Sister Maya asked me to ask you if you would pass on the Sword Drawing Technique to her?"

The girl asked hesitantly.

"She does know how to bargain... She called you her sister, is it just because she wants me to pass on the Sword Drawing Technique to her?"

Wyatt Barnes’ eyes flashed.

"Young Master, Sister Maya is not someone like that."

The girl gently shook her head.

"Then Keer, do you hope that I will pass on the Sword Drawing Technique to her?"

Wyatt Barnes asked with a smile.

"Keer listens to the Young Master."

The girl smiled, her delicate cheeks showing a touch of rosy blush.

"She has already cultivated her Profound-Level lower-level sword skill to the Full Circle Realm, it’s only natural that she wants to practice better sword skills. Considering that Maya has been somewhat kind to you, I will pass on another sword skill to her... but as for the Sword Drawing Technique, it must not be leaked!"

Wyatt Barnes contemplated for a moment, then slowly said.

"Young Master, what sword skill are you going to pass on to Sister Maya?"

The girl blinked her autumn eyes, asking curiously.

"The Shadow-following Sword Technique!"

This sword skill is a Profound Level high-ranking sword skill.

It was a complete sword skill that Wyatt Barnes found in his memory as a reincarnated Martial Emperor.

This skill, along with Ellis Lynch’s Overlapping Shadows Technique he displayed today, both hold the ingenious feat of producing immense power, even rivalling the Overlapping Shadows Technique.

Originally, Wyatt Barnes intended to pass on a Profound-Level mid-level sword skill to Maya Lee.

But he had second thoughts.

In a month and a half, the annual family martial arts tournament would be held.

With Maya Lee’s strength, it would be easy for her to become an Inner Courtyard disciple.

Once becoming an Inner Courtyard disciple, she could choose a Profound-Level mid-level sword skill from the second floor of the Ancient Weapon Pavilion.

If he gives her a Profound-Level mid-level sword skill, it seems a bit redundant.

A few days later, Wyatt Barnes had already transcribed the Shadow-following Sword Technique, and then had Keer come to find Maya Lee.

"The Shadow-following Sword Technique, a Profound-Level high-ranking sword skill?"

After Maya Lee looked over Wyatt Barnes’ hand-copied copy, her autumn eyes condensed and her face was filled with excitement.

"Because of certain reasons, I cannot teach you the Sword Drawing Technique, so I offer you this sword skill... however, I have a condition."

Saying this, Wyatt Barnes stared intently at Maya Lee.

"Wha...what condition?"

At this moment, Maya Lee felt Wyatt Barnes’ scorching gaze, as if it could tear her clothes apart, and her voice trembled slightly.

"You must not tell anyone that I taught you this sword skill. Remember, anyone!"

Wyatt Barnes stated his condition.

"Of course!"

Maya Lee quickly nodded, finally relieved.

So that was the condition.

She was just beginning to think that...

"You can leave now."

Wyatt Barnes nodded at Maya Lee and said casually.

Maya Lee bit her lip, said thanks again, and then left.

After leaving, Maya Lee felt a bit disappointed in her heart.

She even doubted whether her charm had become zero in front of Wyatt Barnes.

From the moment she met Wyatt Barnes, it seemed that Wyatt Barnes had never looked at her straight on.

His tenderness was only ever shown to the girl by his side.

Sometimes, she didn’t know whether she was envious or jealous.

She didn’t know when it started, perhaps it was the first time she saw him use the Sword Drawing Technique, an image of this young boy had steadily crept into her heart.

Lying on the bed, staring at the ceiling, Wyatt Barnes let out a carefree laugh.

As the charming and unscathed Weapon King in his last life, of course, he could see the affection that Maya Lee had for him.

However.

Maya Lee, after all, was different from Keer.

Only he existed in Keer’s world.

On the other hand, Maya Lee had her own life pursuits, even if she had feelings for him now, it was just an innocent young girl’s curiosity about love.

It’s just like nature’s law rule.

An exceptional male, always can more easily attract a female.

Of course, this doesn’t mean that Wyatt Barnes insists on being faithful to one love.

If he meets a woman who truly loves him, willing to give everything for him, and he also has feelings for her, he will not easily miss it.
