Legend of Wyatt
Chapter 853: Young Master Barnes

Chapter 853: Chapter 853: Young Master Barnes

Noel Walton watched his brother suffer so deeply, and his usually calm face instantly turned grim. He said to Noah Wood in a heavy tone, "Headmaster Wood, considering that you were once nearly my brother’s father-in-law, I will not make things difficult for you..."

"But, you must hand over Wyatt Barnes! Today, I, Noel Walton, seek justice not only for my brother and the Walton Family but also for Niklaus Woodson of the Five Elements Sect!"

Noel Walton’s words rang out forcefully, like rolling thunder.

Toward the end, a chilling rage surfaced on his face.

He rarely lost his temper, but seeing his brother in such agony today, and thinking of someone daring to impersonate a disciple of Niklaus Woodson from the Five Elements Sect, he was utterly infuriated!

Seek justice for the Five Elements Sect?

Upon hearing Noel Walton’s words, Noah Wood’s pupils shrank, and the other Wood Family elders and members all had looks of astonishment on their faces.

How did Wyatt Barnes become involved with the Five Elements Sect?

And it seemed as though he had committed some outrageous act that enraged both heaven and man against the sect?

"Young Master Walton, could there be a misunderstanding... How could Brother Barnes be involved with your Five Elements Sect?"

Noah Wood asked with a frown, feeling that something was amiss but unable to put his finger on it at the moment.

"Hmph! Headmaster Wood, it seems he has truly scared the wits out of you."

Just then, Esteban Walton spoke out sternly and sharply, "Didn’t he tell you that he is a disciple of Niklaus Woodson from the Five Elements Sect? Today, my brother is here to discipline him on behalf of Niklaus Woodson of the Five Elements Sect!"

A disciple of Niklaus Woodson from the Five Elements Sect?

Noah Wood was stunned; he had no idea that Wyatt Barnes was a disciple of the sect. He immediately turned to a Wood Family member nearby and instructed, "You, go and ask Young Master Barnes to come here."

"Yes."

The Wood Family member respectfully agreed and left.

Seeing Noah Wood send for Wyatt Barnes, Noel Walton didn’t say anything more for the time being and closed his eyes, waiting quietly.

Esteban Walton, standing beside Noel Walton, wore a look of smug satisfaction.

"Wyatt Barnes, I want to see how you’ll fall on hard times!"

Esteban Walton’s lips curled into a cold smirk, his heart filled with malice.

In the Wood Family’s tranquil courtyard, Wyatt Barnes sat quietly at a stone table drinking tea, continuously holding a green shard in his other hand.

"I’ve finally comprehended the ’Third Level Middle Grade Wind Realm’."

Wyatt Barnes glanced at the ’Wind Realm Shard’ in his hand, revealing a satisfied smile on his face. At the same time, he picked up his teacup and took a sip, letting the fragrance of the tea blossom in his mouth.

"Brother Barnes!"

At some point, the sound of a door opening was heard, and a graceful figure walked out from a room on the right side of the courtyard—it was Daisy Wood, who had been in seclusion for several days.

At this moment, Daisy’s face beamed with joy as she excitedly said, "Brother Wood, the Pill Medicine you gave me is amazing. In just a few days, it has allowed me to regain my Original Infant Realm Seventh-Order cultivation!"

Daisy, who had ruined her inner energy a few days ago, had switched to practicing the martial arts technique taught to her by Wyatt Barnes.

During this time, she had taken several Pill Medicines given to her by Wyatt Barnes.

Those Pill Medicines were designed to absorb and store the inner energy Daisy had dissipated. After she retrained in the new technique, the Pill Medicine would then return the stored inner energy to Daisy.

In just a few days, Daisy had reclaimed all the inner energy from the Pill Medicines, and she was even on the verge of breaking through to the Original Infant Realm Level Eight!

"Daisy, those Pill Medicines are indeed miraculous, but they alone wouldn’t enable you to recover your cultivation in such a short time... Haven’t you noticed over these past few days that the speed at which you absorbed the inner energy from those Pill Medicines has increased?"

Wyatt Barnes shook his head, and then asked with a smile.

"Yes, it has increased. But isn’t that because the inner energy in the Pill Medicine was originally my own?"

Daisy asked curiously.

She didn’t understand the nature of those Pill Medicines, only that they could absorb the inner energy she had dispersed, and through cultivation, ’retrieve’ it.

"You silly girl... Now that you’ve absorbed all the inner energy from those Pill Medicines, try to absorb the inner energy of heaven and earth stored in the original stone and see."

Wyatt Barnes chuckled wryly. He had thought that upon leaving seclusion, she would be excited by the talent she now possessed, but it seemed she had noticed nothing.

Daisy nodded, sat down at the stone table, took out an inferior original stone, and started cultivating on the spot.

After a dozen breaths, Daisy opened her eyes, her pretty face filled with shock.

"Wy... Brother Barnes... How come I feel like I’m absorbing the inner energy of heaven and earth from the original stone at a rate that’s more than ten times faster than before? Although it’s not as fast as when I absorbed the inner energy that was originally my own from those Pill Medicines, it’s not much slower either."

Daisy asked, somewhat dazed.

"Silly girl."

Wyatt Barnes shook his head. "Haven’t you forgotten what I said to you a few days ago? Do you really think that when I told you I performed the Washing Marrow, I was just speaking metaphorically?"

From his observation, Daisy’s talent, although not like his own after consuming the millennia-old Giovanni Stone Milk and enhancing his talent to the limit, wasn’t far off.

"Washing Marrow!"

On hearing his words, Daisy suddenly recalled what Wyatt Barnes had told her a few days ago. At that time, he had said her talent was different from before, but she hadn’t believed it.

Now, the truth was right before her eyes, undeniable.

"Brother Barnes, did you... Did you truly enhance my talent?"

Daisy looked at Wyatt Barnes, her face filled with excitement.

Wyatt Barnes chuckled, "You silly girl, even now, do you still doubt your Brother Barnes? Do I look that much like a charlatan to you?"

"Brother Barnes, I didn’t mean it like that..."

Daisy Wood’s pretty face flushed red when she heard Wyatt Barnes’s words, and she hurriedly explained, "I was just... just too surprised! Although I knew that here on the Cloud Skies Continent there are some heavenly treasures that can enhance a martial artist’s talent, I’ve never heard of someone able to enhance another person’s talent."

"Now you know how amazing your Brother Barnes is, right?"

Wyatt Barnes said with a smile.

"Yes, Brother Barnes is the most amazing."

Daisy Wood nodded like a pecking chicken, then her face turned red again as she stared straight at Wyatt Barnes.

"What’s wrong? Do I have something on my face?"

Feeling uncomfortable under Daisy’s gaze, Wyatt Barnes couldn’t help but ask.

Smack!

Just as Wyatt Barnes was about to raise his hand to touch his face, Daisy Wood leaned in and, like a surprise attack, kissed him on the face.

By the time Wyatt Barnes was standing there dumbstruck, Daisy Wood had already run back to her room with a flushed face, and with a ’bang’, she closed the door. Her voice travelled from afar, "Brother Barnes, thank you! I will practice hard."

After that, there was no more noise, clearly she was eager to practice with her newfound exceptional talent.

"This girl."

Wyatt Barnes, the victim of Daisy’s sneak attack, shook his head and smiled.

"If there’s a chance in the future, I’ll bring Daisy to see my parents... and ask them to take her as an adopted daughter, then she’ll really be my sister."

A gentle smile appeared on Wyatt Barnes’s face as this thought crossed his mind.

"Young Master Barnes!"

Just then, a respectful and urgent voice came from outside the courtyard.

"Hm?"

Wyatt Barnes frowned; he could sense the urgency in the voice of the person outside and didn’t dare to delay, so he walked straight out of the small courtyard.

He found a Wood Family disciple standing there anxiously.

"What’s the matter?"

Wyatt Barnes asked curiously, not knowing why this Wood Family disciple was in such a hurry, as if racing to reincarnation.

"Young Master Barnes, you should hurry over... Young Master Walton and Second Young Master Walton have come, apparently about the headmaster and your trip to the Walton Family to call off the engagement."

The Wood Family disciple said hastily.

"Young Master Walton? Noel Walton?"

Wyatt Barnes recalled the Young Master Walton that Daisy had mentioned, the one who joined the Five Elements Sect, and couldn’t help but ask.

"Yes."

The Wood Family disciple nodded.

"Where are they? Lead the way."

Wyatt Barnes said, his expression calm from beginning to end, as if he was not worried at all about what Noel Walton could do to him.

The Wood Family disciple led the way, and Wyatt Barnes followed behind.

"Isn’t Young Master Walton supposed to be a reasonable man?"

Wyatt Barnes furrowed his brow, remembering Daisy’s comments about Noel Walton, who was upright and starkly different from his brother, Esteban Walton.

However, if Noel Walton truly were reasonable, he shouldn’t have come looking for trouble at the Wood Family with Esteban Walton.

"Regardless, let’s go over and have a look... I was just thinking about how to make contact with the people from the Five Elements Sect, and Noel Walton came knocking on my door."

Wyatt Barnes followed the Wood Family disciple, weaving through the Wood Family estate, and soon arrived outside the Wood Family’s main hall.

Only then did Wyatt Barnes notice the crowd gathered ahead.

"Young Master Barnes is here!"

The Wood Family disciple leading the way ahead shouted.

Instantly, the circle of Wood Family disciples respectably made way.

"Young Master Barnes!"

"Young Master Barnes!"

...

One after another, the Wood Family disciples respectfully greeted Wyatt Barnes, who was walking over slowly. Over this period, the deeds of this young man in purple clothing had almost become legendary throughout Drifting Cloud Town.

Alone, he had defeated the Walton Family head and the all-powerful elder, helping the Wood Family cancel the ridiculous marriage agreement with the Walton Family.

Thanks to this, the Wood Family disciples, going out and about in the past few days, could see the awe in the eyes of onlookers as they looked at them, greatly satisfying their vanity.

They knew that all this respect was brought to them by the young man in purple before them. Without him, nobody would have shown them such respect.

"Mhm."

Facing the enthusiastic Wood Family disciples, Wyatt Barnes nodded and smiled in response to each greeting.

Suddenly, the Wood Family disciples’ faces lit up with radiant smiles, exclaiming, "Not only is Young Master Barnes strong, but he’s also so approachable. He truly is rare."

Seeing how respected Wyatt Barnes was among the Wood Family disciples, Esteban Walton’s face turned utterly dark. He sneered at Noah Wood not too far away, "Headmaster Wood, I think it’s about time you handed over your position as headmaster to this Wyatt Barnes! In the future, the Wood Family should be the ’Barnes Family’, and all of the Wood Family should change their last name to ’Barnes’."

Esteban Walton’s words made Noah Wood’s face look extremely unpleasant.
