Legend of Wyatt
Chapter 838 Wyatt Barnes Disappeared!

Chapter 838: Chapter 838 Wyatt Barnes Disappeared!

You must know, even just now, as I witnessed Sword Thirteen from the Blade and Sword Sect and the two Vice Fort Masters of the Grimm Wolf Fortress clashing, I could still catch glimpses of their fleeting shadows, albeit not very clearly.

Yet now, I can’t capture even a trace of Wyatt Barnes’s figure.

Whoosh!

The next moment, I saw that man with the bizarre purple hair and the broken stele in his hand, Wyatt Barnes, suddenly appear beside one of the fleeing Grimm Wolf Fortress elders.

Immediately after, Wyatt’s other hand struck out empty-handed, unleashing an ominous and terrifying black power that swept over the elder, instantly killing him.

The next moment, Wyatt disappeared from the spot again.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

With the same effortless palm, the other four elders of the Grimm Wolf Fortress had not escaped far before he caught up with each of them and effortlessly obliterated them.

Wyatt Barnes acted so quickly that even the fluctuating forces of heaven and earth in the sky couldn’t coalesce into a phenomenon in time.

"Wyatt, lad!"

Just as Wyatt Barnes killed the last elder of the Grimm Wolf Fortress, Taoi Romero, who had breathed a sigh of relief, looked towards Wyatt and called out.

Whoosh!

Wyatt vanished from his original place and reappeared in front of Taoi Romero.

"Wyatt, lad, how did you..."

Taoi Romero, wanting to ask Wyatt how he suddenly possessed such terrifying power, stopped talking abruptly.

That’s because the current Wyatt was staring at him with a pair of bloody, profound eyes, which made Taoi’s skin crawl.

Not only that, but Wyatt’s hand was raised high, with strands of profound black power entwining around it, exuding an aura that brought up a primal fear from deep within Taoi Romero.

This gesture of Wyatt’s was all too familiar to Taoi; Wyatt had just used the same motion to kill those five elders of the Grimm Wolf Fortress.

"Wyatt, lad, it’s me... I am Uncle Romero!"

Seeing Wyatt as if he might strike at any moment, Taoi Romero felt a shiver run down his spine, cold sweat beaded on his forehead, and he couldn’t help but speak out hastily.

He didn’t doubt for a moment that if Wyatt’s palm came down, he would undoubtedly die!

At this time, Taoi Romero also realized another issue.

It seemed that the current Wyatt had lost his reason.

"Eyes turning blood-red, hair turning purple... Wyatt, lad, what on earth happened to you?"

Taoi Romero was filled with confusion.

"Uncle... Uncle Romero?"

Finally, Wyatt struggled to open his mouth, slowly articulating a few syllables, and the crimson color in his eyes seemed to fade.

"Yes, I am Uncle Romero, Taoi Romero!"

Seeing that Wyatt responded and gradually lowered his raised hand, the mysterious and terrifying black power dissipating along with it, Taoi Romero breathed a sigh of relief.

By this time, his back was completely soaked in cold sweat.

The current Wyatt, in his eyes, was even more terrifying than the combined Vice Fort Masters of the Grimm Wolf Fortress!

"Uncle... Uncle Romero..."

There was still some confusion in Wyatt’s eyes; he gently shook his head, as if trying to recall something, his expression somewhat pained.

"Wyatt, lad, what’s wrong?"

Taoi Romero noticed something was off with Wyatt, his face changed slightly and finally, his eyes fell on the broken stele in Wyatt’s hands.

He had a strange intuition that the changes in Wyatt were indubitably connected to the stele.

That stele was not unfamiliar to Taoi Romero.

Originally, during the Great Turdo Dynasty’s ’Dynastic Martial Competition’, it was with that stele that Wyatt contained Marshall Tyler’s ’secret technique’.

And in today’s ’Fourth Round Selection’ of the Ten Dynasties Martial Meet, it was with that stele that Marshall Tyler didn’t even have the courage to face off with Wyatt.

Thinking this, Taoi Romero slowly reached out, intending to take the broken stele from Wyatt’s hand to see if without it Wyatt would return to normal.

However, the moment Taoi stretched out his hand, he sensed an extremely chilling aura that instantly enveloped him.

"I... I mean no harm..."

Watching Wyatt who suddenly turned cold and stared at him indifferently, Taoi Romero quickly withdrew his hand.

He then realized that he should not have done that.

Because at this moment, the crimson in Wyatt’s eyes grew stronger, and the black aura emanating from his body made the surrounding air grow colder.

Whoosh!

Suddenly, Wyatt raised his hand, with the terrible black power swirling in his palm, as if ready to strike down on Taoi Romero at any moment.

Taoi Romero was on edge, sweat pouring down his forehead, his heart filled with trepidation.

He knew that his action of reaching for the broken stele had thoroughly enraged Wyatt, who had lost his senses.

"Uncle... Uncle Romero..."

Just as Taoi Romero thought Wyatt Barnes was about to bring his palm crashing down, he made out a few more syllables coming from Wyatt’s mouth, which inevitably made him sigh with relief.

"Wyatt, I..."

Right as Taoi Romero was about to gently coax Wyatt back to his senses, he discovered that Wyatt had vanished into thin air, leaving no trace behind.

"Wyatt!"

Taoi Romero’s face turned pale, and he frantically looked in all directions but still couldn’t locate Wyatt, not even having a clue which direction he might have gone.

"This is bad! Wyatt has lost his reason, and wandering about in the ’outside territory’ like this, he might be in danger!"

Taoi Romero’s face was marked with anxiety as he looked around, but he found himself at a loss.

Eventually, he could only start searching nearby and, after half a day without finding any trace of Wyatt, he had no choice but to give up.

As dusk fell, Taoi Romero returned to the site where the Grimm Wolf Fortress Elders had been killed, only to see that a group from the Blade and Sword Sect had arrived.

"Dad!"

Seeing Taoi Romero, Winnie Romero approached him, "Dad, where have you been? What happened here? Who killed these Grimm Wolf Fortress Elders?"

"I also found Wood Town’s body... but Brother Barnes has vanished! Do you know where he went?"

Worry covered Winnie Romero’s pretty face. She had been most concerned about the safety of Wyatt Barnes and her father, Taoi Romero.

Because she discovered that Wood Town was dead, and so were the six Grimm Wolf Fortress Elders.

Now, seeing her father unharmed and Wyatt nowhere in sight, her concern for Wyatt’s wellbeing deepened.

Upon hearing this, Taoi glanced at the seven corpses scattered across the plains. Just as he was about to speak, he saw Sword Thirteen, Blade Five, and others approaching.

"When I caught up, I found Wood Town’s and the six Grimm Wolf Fortress Elders’ bodies... As for Wyatt, I didn’t see him. I searched the area for a while but couldn’t find any trace of him,"

sighed Taoi Romero.

The events that had just unfolded seemed too bizarre to him.

Especially the power that Wyatt displayed after his ’transformation,’ which was unquestionably beyond the ’Transforming Void Realm.’ It possibly even reached the ’Martial Emperor Realm.’

And all of this seemed to be linked to that mysterious broken stone stele.

Further, according to his guess, the four Vice Fort Masters of Grimm Wolf Fortress that converged for Wyatt were likely after that same broken stele.

Perhaps they had learned something from Marshall Tyler.

For this reason, after careful consideration, Taoi Romero decided to conceal everything he had witnessed, believing it would better protect Wyatt.

Otherwise, once the ’secrets’ of the mysterious stone were exposed, even the Blade and Sword Sect might be tempted, potentially leading them to harm Wyatt.

"What?!"

Winnie Romero turned pale with fright upon hearing this, "How could this happen? Where could Brother Barnes be?"

Walter Simmons and Brian Graham stood by, their faces filled with worry as well.

After listening to Taoi Romero’s words, Sword Thirteen sighed, "I examined those seven corpses, and it appears that Wood Town was killed by Grimm Wolf Fortress’ own people... As for the people from Grimm Wolf Fortress, they all died at the hands of the same powerful individual!"

"Based on the distribution of the bodies and the marks found on them... that person’s speed was incredibly fast, far surpassing even me!"

Sword Thirteen took a deep breath before continuing, "Moreover, the ’Storage Rings’ on the six Grimm Wolf Fortress Elders were untouched, which shows that the killer had no interest in their possessions."

"Therefore, I believe... it was very likely a Martial Emperor who stepped in, killed the six Grimm Wolf Fortress Elders, and took Wyatt Barnes with him!"

Sword Thirteen said all this in one breath.

Martial Emperor!

As soon as Sword Thirteen spoke these words, everyone, except Blade Five who was prepared for this, including Taoi Romero, couldn’t help but their pupils shrink in astonishment.

Taoi Romero was shocked because of Sword Thirteen’s deductions.

He hadn’t expected Sword Thirteen to be so acutely insightful, able to deduce from the corpses of the six Grimm Wolf Fortress Elders that a ’Martial Emperor’ killed them.

"Wyatt, after ’transforming’... truly possessed the strength of a Martial Emperor. However, I always feel that erupting with such power was all harm and no benefit to him,"

Taoi Romero thought of Wyatt’s irrational state and felt a surge of worry.

"Brother Barnes was taken by a Martial Emperor?"

Winnie Romero’s worry intensified after hearing Sword Thirteen’s words, "Then what do we do now? How can we find this Martial Emperor and rescue Brother Barnes?"

"Winnie,"

Sword Thirteen shook his head, "I think you’re too anxious... If Wyatt was really taken by a Martial Emperor, he should be safe. Not just that, he might even come into a great fortune."

"Yes,"

Walter Simmons agreed with his master, "If that Martial Emperor meant harm to Wyatt, he would have ended up just like those six Grimm Wolf Fortress Elders..."

"It makes no sense for a Martial Emperor to randomly kill those elders. But since he did, it is most likely to save Wyatt."

"If he saved Wyatt, why would he then harm him?"
