Legend of Wyatt
Chapter 843: Calling Off the Engagement at Their Door

Chapter 843: Chapter 843: Calling Off the Engagement at Their Door

"Who are you, really?"

Noah Wood looked at Wyatt Barnes, asking with a bitter smile on his face.

Having witnessed Wyatt’s strength, Noah dared not put on the airs of the Headmaster Wood anymore, because he knew that in front of a true powerhouse, his position as Headmaster Wood was as insignificant as an ant.

If the other party wanted to kill him, it would be effortless, and they wouldn’t hold back just because he was Headmaster Wood.

"I am Daisy’s friend."

Wyatt replied indifferently.

"Brother, why waste words on him? Just kill him!"

When Bill Wood realized that Noah wasn’t making any moves against Wyatt, his complexion drastically changed as he shouted sharply.

"Kill, kill, kill, that’s all you know! If he wanted to kill your big brother, your big brother would have died several times over by now!"

Noah was already feeling uneasy, and upon hearing Bill’s words, he became impatient and rebuked him.

"What?!"

Hearing Noah’s words, Bill’s face turned pale, and after his core had been destroyed, the immense pain coupled with the shock made him faint.

"Brother Barnes."

Daisy fully came to her senses and realized that the purple-clad young man she had brought back possessed far greater strength than her uncle and her father.

In an instant, he disabled her uncle’s core and then, at a critical moment, effortlessly dodged her father’s furious sword strike.

Such strength, it seemed even her grandfather, the old head of the Wood Family, was far inferior.

"Daisy, don’t worry... I will solve this for you."

Wyatt smiled at Daisy, giving her a reassuring look.

Daisy felt a warmth in her heart, then she looked toward Noah with a trace of pain flashing in her eyes, before finally saying, "Brother Barnes, can... can you spare my father?"

"Silly girl."

Wyatt shook his head and smiled, "You didn’t think your brother was a ruthless demon, did you?"

Having heard Wyatt’s words, Daisy couldn’t help but laugh.

Wyatt’s gaze fell on Noah, and he sneered, "Headmaster Wood, you saw just now, didn’t you? Even if you want to sacrifice Daisy, at the moment you face danger, she would still be the first to stand up and plead on your behalf!"

"She wouldn’t disregard your life just because you were ready to sacrifice her! In her heart, you are her dad, the dad who brought her up!"

Wyatt’s words rang out resonantly.

Noah gave a bitter smile, then sheathed his sword and sighed, "Do you think I really wanted to sacrifice Daisy? If there were any other way, even if it cost me my life, I would not have agreed to Daisy marrying that beast!"

This sudden change in Noah left both Wyatt and Daisy stunned.

The current Noah was drastically different from the Noah of just moments ago!

"Hmph!"

Wyatt disdainfully glanced at Noah, "Earlier, weren’t you praising the Walton family’s profligate son in front of Daisy, saying how wonderful he was? Why the change of heart now?"

"I was compelled by the situation, trying to persuade Daisy that’s all."

Noah sighed, then, with a look of affection, he slowly walked toward Daisy.

Noah extended his hand, gently stroked Daisy’s head, and softly said, "Daisy, I’m sorry... it’s all dad’s fault! All dad’s fault!"

"Dad!"

Having not seen her father this gentle for a long time, Daisy’s eyes reddened, and she threw herself into Noah’s arms, "What exactly happened?"

Soon, from Noah’s explanations, both Wyatt and Daisy learned the complete situation.

It turned out that this whole ordeal was orchestrated solely by Bill.

Bill had unilaterally agreed to the Walton family’s proposal for a marriage alliance, promising Daisy to that profligate son of the Walton family, thereby securing numerous personal benefits under the Walton’s influence.

When Noah learned of this, he was furious and even went personally to the Walton family intending to cancel the engagement.

But, would the Walton family agree to that?

The Walton family declared that if the Wood family did not fulfill their promise, the Walton family would declare war on them, obliterating the Wood Family from ’Drifting Cloud Town,’ relegating them to history.

"The strongest member of our Wood Family is my father, who seldom leaves the house, but even he is only at the third level of the ’Cave Void Realm’... After this incident, what worried me the most was letting my father find out. Once he knew, he would certainly kill Second Brother himself!"

At this, Noah looked disgustedly at the unconscious Bill.

"Moreover, given my father’s temperament, he would undoubtedly fight the Walton family to the bitter end for Daisy! However, should things escalate to that level, it would be the end for the Wood Family!"

"The Walton family is too powerful, just the warriors at the fourth level of the ’Cave Void Realm’ number two... and the elder from the Walton Family, who is even at the fifth level of the ’Cave Void Realm’! Our Wood Family facing the Walton Family would be akin to an egg striking a rock."

Noah closed his eyes in pain, then after a while, continued saying, "So, for the sake of the entire Wood family, I made a painful decision to ally through marriage with the Walton Family and to let Daisy comply! For this, I did not hesitate to destroy the father-daughter relationship between me and Daisy, betraying the promise I made to my deceased wife!"

"Daisy, I’m sorry... Dad is sorry!"

By the end, Noah was in tears, his face full of regret.

"Dad!"

Daisy held her father tightly, tears rolling down as she murmured, "Why didn’t you tell me sooner? I always thought you no longer cared for Daisy, no longer loved Daisy... Daisy has been in so much pain, really so much pain!"

Looking at the father and daughter before him, Wyatt couldn’t help but sigh.

It seemed he had misunderstood Noah as well.

Noah was a good father, but he was also the head of a family, burdened with many concerns.

"Headmaster Wood!"

As Noah and Daisy parted, Wyatt stepped forward and looked at Noah, asking in a grave voice, "Did you just say that the strongest in the Walton Family is a ’fifth-level warrior of the Cave Void Realm’?"

"Yes."

Noah Wood nodded, his eyes lighting up at the same time, "Brother Barnes, could it be that you..."

"Headmaster Wood, I’ll go with you to the Walton Family!"

Wyatt Barnes interrupted Noah Wood, then stepped towards the outside of the Wood Family’s grand hall. When he reached the main gate, he didn’t forget to look back at Daisy Wood, "Daisy, Brother Barnes will resolve this trouble for you today!"

"Brother Barnes, are you really confident?"

Daisy Wood said worriedly, "I also don’t want you to get into trouble... Otherwise, I would never have peace of mind in my life!"

"Don’t worry."

Wyatt Barnes smiled confidently.

A family whose strongest member is only a ’Cave Void Realm Level Five Martialist’ is hardly worth his concern.

If the other party is sensible, well and good, but if not, he wouldn’t mind teaching them a lesson!

Thinking this, a cold light flashed in Wyatt Barnes’s eyes.

After stepping out of the Wood Family estate with Noah Wood, Wyatt Barnes walked side by side with Noah towards the Walton Family estate.

Along the way, he also learned some matters about ’Drifting Cloud Town’ from Noah.

In ’Drifting Cloud Town’, the Walton Family was absolutely dominant, and no other family dared to provoke them.

In ’Drifting Cloud Town’, there were three families like the Wood Family, all of whom had to act according to the Walton Family’s whims. Each had to hand over a part of their income from their respective industries to the Walton Family every month.

"Such a domineering Walton Family!"

A gleam flashed in Wyatt Barnes’s eyes as he muttered to himself.

"There’s no helping it, on the Cloud Skies Continent, respect the powerful. The Walton Family has three individuals above the ’Cave Void Realm Level Four,’ which has already established their domineering status in ’Drifting Cloud Town.’"

Noah Wood sighed, "With those three powerful individuals above the ’Cave Void Realm Level Four,’ even if our three major families joined forces, we wouldn’t stand a chance against the Walton Family!"

Wyatt Barnes nodded; he found this point truly reasonable.

’Cave Void Realm Level Three’ and ’Cave Void Realm Level Four,’ although only one level apart, separate by a huge gap, with a difference of a whole twenty ancient Horned Dragons in strength.

Such a gap in power was like a chasm, difficult to cross!

The Walton Family estate, located to the east of ’Drifting Cloud Town,’ spanned a vast area, far surpassing the Wood Family estate.

"Truly the first family of ’Drifting Cloud Town’!"

Above the Walton Family estate, Wyatt Barnes stood in mid-air, overlooking the scenery beneath him.

Next to him, Noah Wood looked somewhat uneasy, smiling bitterly, "Brother Barnes, is it really okay for us to do this? After all, the Walton Family is still the first family of ’Drifting Cloud Town.’"

"Headmaster Wood, do you think, even if you paid all due respects today, the Walton Family would agree to your Wood Family’s withdrawal from the marriage easily, and let bygones be bygones?"

Wyatt Barnes countered.

"Of course not!"

Noah Wood shook his head in a hurry, "If the Walton Family knew our Wood Family wanted to withdraw from the marriage, they would definitely act against our Wood Family based on their previous threats to us!"

"So, do you think there’s a difference between us barging into the Walton Family like this and entering through the main gate with all due respects?"

Wyatt Barnes asked again.

Noah Wood shook his head.

"So, do you prefer this way, or would you like us to enter through the main gate with all due respects?"

Wyatt Barnes asked once more.

"This way."

Noah Wood’s eyes brightened, and it seemed like Wyatt had awakened him to something. Looking down at the Walton Family estate below, he shouted loudly, "People of the Walton Family, listen up! Noah Wood of the Wood Family is here to call off the marriage! Our Wood Family’s daughter is not someone your Walton Family scions can just lay their hands on!"

His voice was infused with Origin Force, resonating like a thunderclap above the Walton Family estate, startling the entire family.

Wyatt Barnes was stunned and couldn’t help but give Noah Wood a thumbs up, his face speechless, "Headmaster Wood, it seems I have underestimated you."

He had intended to teach Noah Wood to do just this, but to his surprise, Noah had figured it out on his own, and the result was better than he had imagined!

"It’s people from the Wood Family!"

"The Wood Family is here to call off the marriage!"

...

The entire Walton Family estate was completely stirred up due to Noah Wood’s words, which were laden with Origin Force and boomed like a thunderclap.

Moreover, Noah Wood’s words did not only reach the Walton Family estate, but the nearby people also heard it.

"What does the Wood Family intend to do?"

"Is the Wood Family challenging the authority of the Walton Family?"

"I think the Wood Family doesn’t want to live!"

...

Around the Walton Family estate, many people took to the air and moved closer to observe the excitement.

"It’s the head of the Wood Family, ’Noah Wood’!"

Soon, someone recognized Noah Wood hovering above the Walton Family estate.

"Who is that person beside Noah Wood?"

Others also turned their attention to Wyatt Barnes, who was next to Noah Wood.
