Legend of Wyatt
Chapter 876: A Sudden Turn in the Situation

Chapter 876: Chapter 876: A Sudden Turn in the Situation

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

...

Several figures, both male and female, flew swiftly through the air and in moments arrived in front of Wyatt Barnes and Brady Yellow, forming a human wall to protect them.

These people were all disciples from Niklaus Woodson.

"What is this..."

Wyatt Barnes and Brady Yellow exchanged looks, each seeing the shock in the other’s eyes.

The actions of these Niklaus Woodson disciples surprised them, while also warming their hearts.

These Niklaus Woodson disciples were protecting them.

Now, a group of Niklaus Woodson disciples stood with Wyatt Barnes and Brady Yellow behind them, vigilantly watching Elder Ho as if he were some savage beast.

"Elder Ho, you cannot touch them!"

"Elder Ho, if you want to kill them, you’ll have to get past us first!"

...

As a united front, the Niklaus Woodson disciples faced Elder Ho with looks of indignation.

"What are you doing..."

Elder Ho took a deep breath, his face beneath his beard filled with astonishment.

He had never imagined that two young men who had just arrived at their Niklaus Woodson and hadn’t even been registered as official disciples could command such strong loyalty.

Who could tell him what the hell was going on?

"What are you doing?!"

Santos Locke stood next to Elder Ho, his eyes coldly sweeping over the group of Niklaus Woodson disciples as he said sternly, "Don’t forget, you are all disciples of Niklaus Woodson... Now, my master, the Elder of Niklaus Woodson, wants to punish these two potential disciples who wrongfully kill the innocent, and you dare to interfere? Do you no longer wish to live?"

By the end of his speech, a deadly intent appeared in Santos Locke’s eyes, seemingly threatening the disciples.

Unfortunately, the group of Niklaus Woodson disciples appeared to completely ignore Santos Locke’s words, their gaze fixed on Elder Ho, full of vigilance.

It was as if they deeply feared Elder Ho would strike at Wyatt Barnes and Brady Yellow again.

For a moment, the atmosphere at the scene became extremely tense.

Elder Ho stood suspended in the air, making no move.

Although, even with the intervention of the group of Niklaus Woodson disciples, he was a hundred percent confident he could kill both Wyatt Barnes and Brady Yellow, he chose not to act.

Now, his mind was filled with curiosity.

What exactly had Wyatt Barnes and Brady Yellow done to inspire the disciples of Niklaus Woodson to this extent?

As the saying goes, ’He who wins the hearts of the people wins the world.’

Wyatt Barnes and Brady Yellow, although not yet officially Niklaus Woodson disciples, had won the hearts of the others, even more than he, the Elder of Niklaus Woodson, had.

"Wyatt, Brady... are you alright?"

A hurried voice approached from a distance, accompanied by a swiftly moving figure that soon reached the circle of Niklaus Woodson disciples.

"We’re fine."

At that moment, Wyatt Barnes and Brady Yellow stepped forward from behind the crowd, standing in front of the newcomer.

The newcomer was ’Noel Walton’!

Right now, Noel Walton’s expression was extremely grave, having roughly learned about everything in front of him from the Niklaus Woodson disciples who had gone to find him before.

He had never expected that just after he had returned to his residence and sat down to meditate for a short while, such a major incident would unfold outside.

Someone was trying to kill Wyatt Barnes and Brady Yellow, threatening the ’future’ of their Niklaus Woodson!

If it had been another time, upon arriving, Noel Walton would undoubtedly have first greeted Elder Ho.

But now, he did not; instead, he bowed slightly towards the group of Niklaus Woodson disciples, and said solemnly, "Thank you, all of you have done well! I believe, with you here, the future of our ’Niklaus Woodson’ will surely be bright!"

"Brother Noel Walton is too kind."

"Yes, Brother Noel Walton, it is what we should do."

"Brother Noel Walton, you and Elder Colby are the real heroes of our Niklaus Woodson!"

"What we did was just some insignificant tasks."

...

The group of Niklaus Woodson disciples responded in turn.

"Thank you."

Then, Wyatt Barnes and Brady Yellow also bowed to the group of Niklaus Woodson disciples.

None of these Niklaus Woodson disciples might have strength comparable to theirs.

But what these Niklaus Woodson disciples had just done had filled them with genuine gratitude.

In response to the thanks from Wyatt Barnes and Brady Yellow, the group of Niklaus Woodson disciples smiled kindly.

"Elder Ho!"

Noel Walton turned and looked towards Elder Ho standing in the distance, his expression hardening, "I wonder how Wyatt and Brady have offended you? What makes you want to kill them?"

Noel Walton’s tone was filled with accusatory implications.

"Noel Walton, who do you think you are? How dare you speak to my master like that?"

Elder Ho had yet to speak when Santos Locke already scornfully sneered.

"Santos..."

Elder Ho, sensing that something was amiss, frowned and was just about to intervene.

But before he could speak, he was interrupted by a cold and indifferent voice that descended from the sky.

"If he doesn’t qualify, do I?"

The indifferent voice drew the attention of everyone present.

High above, two elderly men descended side by side.

However, the faces of these elderly men looked extremely unpleasant now, especially the one-armed elder who had just spoken, his eyes flickering with utmost iciness.

Like a coiled venomous snake, ready to strike at any moment!

"Elder Sun...Elder Sun, you have returned?"

Seeing the one-armed elder, Gide Ho could not help but be startled; he never expected this elder to return to Niklaus Woodson.

It was known that since ten years ago, when the elder’s personal disciple was poached by the Peak Master of Flame Peak, the elder, in a fit of anger, left the Five Elements Sect to go to the Niklaus Woodson branch in Andington.

He had not expected that after ten years, the elder would come back again.

"Who are you?"

Santos Locke clearly did not recognize the one-armed elder, frowned, and asked in a deep voice.

"Santos, cease your impudence! This is Elder Sun, the second strongest in our Niklaus Woodson... and you still haven’t apologized to Elder Sun?"

Seeing his disciple daring to confront the elder, Gide Ho’s forehead was covered in cold sweat as he hastily shouted.

The second strongest in Niklaus Woodson?

Upon hearing Gide Ho’s words, Santos Locke’s facial expression completely changed.

"He... He is Elder Ableton Sun?"

At some point, Santos Locke’s gaze had landed on the elder’s missing arm.

Right after, his body shivered involuntarily as if he had remembered something terrifying.

Although he had only become a student of Gide Ho eight years ago and came to the Five Elements Sect’s ’Niklaus Woodson’ seven years ago, he had heard of this elder more than once from his master.

This elder, named ’Ableton Sun’, was the strongest in Niklaus Woodson right below the Peak Master.

"Elder... Elder Sun."

Santos Locke couldn’t help but shiver and nervously lowered his head to salute Ableton Sun, "I... I did not know of Elder Sun’s status just now, please forgive me."

"Hmph!"

Ableton Sun snorted coldly, and without any visible movement, a ’bang’ resounded.

The next moment, Santos Locke flew out like an arrow released from a bow, vomiting several mouthfuls of congestion midair.

Barely stabilizing himself in the air, Santos Locke, pale as a sheet and with a face full of dread, looked towards Ableton Sun, "Elder Sun, I was wrong! I was truly wrong!"

Santos Locke had no idea when the one-armed elder had made his move; he hadn’t been able to react from start to finish.

He knew that if the one-armed elder wanted to kill him, he wouldn’t live to take another breath.

"Elder Sun, why did you do this?"

Seeing that his disciple had apologized to Ableton Sun, and yet Ableton Sun still attacked him, Gide Ho’s face could hardly contain his displeasure as he asked in a heavy voice.

"Why?"

Ableton Sun glanced at Gide Ho lightly, and the next moment, he vanished from the spot.

When he reappeared, he was at the position Gide Ho had just occupied, while Gide Ho himself was blasted away, following in Santos Locke’s footsteps.

"Wyatt Barnes, Brady Yellow... today’s events, Niklaus Woodson will give you an explanation!"

Briggs Colby, who had come alongside Ableton Sun, said seriously to Wyatt Barnes and Brady Yellow.

In the distance, Gide Ho, with a pale face, glared at Ableton Sun, "Ableton Sun, don’t think I’m afraid of you just because you are the second strongest in Niklaus Woodson... If you don’t give me an explanation for today’s events, I will go to the Peak Master to seek justice!"

"Peak Master?"

Hearing Gide Ho’s words, Ableton Sun’s mouth curled into a cold smirk, "If it weren’t me here but the Peak Master instead... do you think, you and your disciple would just endure this punishment?"

"Hmm?"

It had to be said, Ableton Sun’s words had frightened Gide Ho.

Straight after, Gide Ho’s gaze fell on Wyatt Barnes and Brady Yellow, vaguely realizing that everything was related to these two young men.

Who exactly were these two young men?

Why would a group of Niklaus Woodson disciples willingly protect them?

Why did Ableton Sun and Briggs Colby stand up for them?

At this moment, his mind was filled with nothing but confusion.

"Noel Walton, we rushed here urgently upon hearing that Gide Ho was going to kill Wyatt Barnes and Brady Yellow... What exactly happened here?"

As the atmosphere turned somewhat strange, Briggs Colby turned to Noel Walton and asked in a deep voice.

Noel Walton took a deep breath, without any concealment, and recounted the events of today when he brought Wyatt Barnes and his two companions here, and how they were stopped by Santos Locke and Callen Hayden.

"Santos Locke and Callen Hayden not only stopped us, but they also repeatedly insulted Wyatt Barnes and Brady Yellow in their words, calling them ’useless’... many of our brothers and sisters can testify to this."

At this, Noel Walton looked around at the scattered Niklaus Woodson disciples standing nearby.

"That’s right! I can testify that Santos Locke and Callen Hayden did insult Wyatt Barnes and Brady Yellow in that way."

"I can also testify!"

"Had they not been so aggressive, Wyatt Barnes and Brady Yellow definitely would not have taken action."

"Even a clay figure has its limits, let alone Wyatt Barnes and Brady Yellow being human... if I were them, I could not have endured such humiliation either!"

...

One after another, the Niklaus Woodson disciples spoke up.

Martial artists, with iron bones and a proud stature, exist between heaven and earth, unyieldable even by the might of the universe.

Better to die standing than to live on one’s knees!

To be so humiliated and yet remain indifferent, what use then is the cultivation of one’s martial prowess?

If one cannot even protect oneself, how can one protect loved ones around them?

Hearing the corroborative words of a group of Niklaus Woodson disciples, Gide Ho’s complexion underwent a complete change.
