Legend of Wyatt-Chapter 1416: The Fall of the Clark Family

"Who are you?"

Lincoln Clark, held in the middle-aged man’s grasp, was on the verge of losing his soul. He hadn’t gotten far in his escape before he was subdued by this man, completely powerless to fight back.

The strength of this adversary was far superior to his own, at the very least a peak existence at the great completion of the Transcending Mortal Realm!

However, the middle-aged man did not pay him any heed, instead turning to look towards Wyatt Barnes, cracking a slight smile, "Wyatt, I’ll leave his fate to you."

As soon as the words left his mouth, the middle-aged man casually tossed Lincoln Clark towards Wyatt.

Tossed by the middle-aged man, Lincoln Clark was freed from his restraints and immediately thought to use the same trick to escape once again.

But could he really escape?

Buzz!!

As an unpleasant buzz sounded, a solid blade of True Energy swept out, effortlessly slicing across Lincoln Clark’s neck, decapitating him.

One moment ago a lively Transcending Mortal Realm peak Martial Artist, and now a dead man with no chance of turning the tide.

Lincoln Clark’s head rolled to the wall, leaving behind a trail of glaring bloodstains. Stopped against the wall, his eyes bulged out in perpetual horror and shock.

Hiss!!

This scene caused Isaias Hayden, who had rushed over, to inhale sharply. At the same time, he discovered two other severed bodies.

"Elder Brother Wyatt, are you alright?"

With a concerned look, Isaias Hayden turned towards Wyatt Barnes. If anything happened to his friend in his own house, it would haunt him for life.

"I’m fine."

Wyatt Barnes shook his head with a smile to Isaias Hayden, then turned to the middle-aged man who was smiling at him, "Thank you, senior, for your help. Might I ask who you are?"

"No wonder the City Lord values you so highly; you truly are extraordinary," said the middle-aged man with a smile.

"You... you’re one of the teacher’s men?"

Wyatt’s heart surged with shock, and with a flash of insight in his mind, he curiously inquired, "Senior, could you be one of the thirty-six personal guards under my teacher’s command?"

Wyatt had not activated the ’Heavenly Eye’ in front of the middle-aged man because he felt almost the same sensation as when he faced his teacher and the Heavenly Guard.

Both his teacher and the Heavenly Guard were ’Entering the Saint Realm’ powerhouses.

"You’re quite sharp."

The middle-aged man smiled faintly, "Amongst the thirty-six personal guards under the City Lord, I am ranked second."

"Heavenly Dipper Guard?"

Wyatt Barnes gasped, surprised that his guess was indeed correct; this person was truly one of the thirty-six personal guards under his teacher, and he was the second-ranked ’Heavenly Dipper Guard’.

The Thirty-Six Heavenly Dippers, with ’Heavenly Chief’ being the first, and ’Heavenly Dipper’ the second.

"The incident here has already been reported to the City Lord... Not a single person from the Clark Family in New South Town will escape."

The Heavenly Dipper Guard spoke indifferently, as if it was a matter of little significance.

To him, annihilating the Clark Family was a simple task; he alone could overturn the entire Clark Family, ensuring they never rose again.

"Forcing a peak Transcending Mortal Realm Martial Artist into a panic-stricken escape... Even the City Lord might not be aware of this ability of yours, right?"

The Heavenly Dipper Guard sized up Wyatt Barnes with great interest.

Having only recently entered the Main Mansion of Hill Mountain City, he had heard about Wyatt Barnes quite early on. At first, he didn’t take much notice, but as time passed, he couldn’t help but pay attention.

A few days ago, when Wyatt Barnes left the Main Mansion, the City Lord personally ordered him to secretly protect Wyatt.

Only then did he deeply realize how much the City Lord valued Wyatt Barnes.

The Clark Family’s little scheme had been observed by him, hidden in thin air to protect Wyatt, from beginning to end.

Originally, he thought he would need to intervene, but to his surprise, Wyatt managed to kill two of the Clark Family members and forced a peak Transcending Mortal Realm Martial Artist from the Clark Family to flee desperately.

He clearly understood that Wyatt could certainly catch up to Lincoln Clark.

His intervention was because he wanted to formally meet Wyatt Barnes, the young genius who would willingly join the Moon Radiance Sect in half a year, a talent even more dazzling than ’Kai Simmons’.

"Transcending... Transcending Mortal Realm great completion?"

Hearing the words of the Heavenly Dipper Guard, Isaias Hayden, still dazed by the revelation of the guard’s identity, couldn’t help but exclaim aloud, his gaze falling on Lincoln Clark’s head.

"Is... is this a Transcending Mortal Realm great completion Martial Artist?"

Isaias Hayden was filled with shock, and when looking back to Wyatt Barnes, his eyes revealed incredulity.

"He was just a Martial Artist who had recently broken through to the great completion of the Transcending Mortal Realm, with unstable foundations. If not for that, I might not have been his match," Wyatt Barnes said with a shake of his head, which of course, both Isaias Hayden and the Heavenly Dipper Guard took as modesty.

"City Guard captain ’Isaias Hayden,’ at your service, Heavenly Dipper Guard, sir!"

At this moment, Isaias Hayden suppressed the astonishment in his heart and saluted the Heavenly Dipper Guard.

"So you are Isaias Hayden from the City Guard? I’ve heard of you... Indeed, not bad."

During the days he secretly protected Wyatt Barnes, the Heavenly Dipper Guard also knew about the friendly relationship between Wyatt and Isaias, so he was very polite to Isaias.

He knew that Wyatt Barnes was a man destined to leave Hill Mountain City, and his future achievements would surely be no less than those of the City Lord.

Therefore, friends of Wyatt Barnes, he certainly did not dare to neglect.

Whoosh!!

With a wave of the Heavenly Dipper Guard’s hand, the three disfigured bodies on the ground were collected by him. After greeting Wyatt and nodding to Isaias, he then took his leave.

For a while, in the room with shattered windows and doors and bloodstains everywhere, only Wyatt Barnes and Isaias Hayden remained.

The look Isaias Hayden gave Wyatt Barnes was very complicated.

Although he knew that Wyatt Barnes was an exceptional martial arts prodigy, he never imagined he would be so heaven-defying... that even a Martial Artist at the complete stage of the Transcending Mortal Realm was no match for him.

"Brother Isaias, I’ll have to trouble you to tidy up here," Wyatt said as he glanced around the room with an embarrassed look.

"No worries. I’ll take you to another guest room first... As for this one, I’ll call the maids to clean it up later," Isaias Hayden came back to his senses, shook his head, and then settled Wyatt into another guest room.

All along, his feelings were complex.

What good fortune or virtue did he, Isaias Hayden, have to have such a brother?

At that moment, a ridiculous idea arose in his heart: should he go and check on his family’s ancestral grave to see if it was emitting green smoke?

Otherwise, where would he, Isaias Hayden, get such great fortune?

For Wyatt, tonight’s event was just a minor episode.

Wyatt knew well that if the Clark Family from New South Town succeeded in killing him, it would be good for them, but if they failed, it would mean complete disaster for them.

But to this, Wyatt was rather indifferent.

This was the law of a world where the strong prey on the weak, the law of survival of the fittest.

If you were a mouse, you should stay quietly in your mouse hole. To foolishly attempt to tweak the whiskers of a cat was to court inevitable destruction.

In the middle of the night, two figures streaked across the sky above the Main Mansion of Hill Mountain City.

After leaving the Main Mansion, they flew at full speed.

Half an hour later, they were standing in the air above a vast town.

"New South Town?"

As the two figures descended, a large mansion beneath their feet experienced a storm of blood and wind... The Clark Family of New South Town was annihilated.

Before dawn broke, all the people of New South Town had awoken from their sleep.

Much of New South Town was permeated with a strong stench of blood.

"My god! Who did the Clark Family provoke? To be wiped out overnight!"

The people of New South Town gasped in shock upon learning that not a single person from the Clark Family had survived.

After staying a few more days at Isaias’s house, Wyatt left and went directly back to the Main Mansion.

Returning to the Main Mansion, he did not go back to the large mansion where the City Lord of Hill Mountain City lived, but rather to the camp of the Covert Dragons, to say goodbye to Jemma Clifford.

For the coming period, he planned to stay with the City Lord of Hill Mountain City for cultivation, awaiting the day of the entrance examination for the Moon Radiance Sect.

"Wyatt Barnes!"

Just as he entered the camp of the Covert Dragons, Wyatt heard someone calling him.

"Edward Watson?"

The person calling him was ’Edward Watson’.

"Haha... Wyatt Barnes, have you heard? The Clark Family of New South Town has been completely wiped out! That’s incredibly satisfying!" Edward Watson was grinning from ear to ear, obviously in a great mood.

"The Clark Family from New South Town? The family of Jan Clark?" Wyatt asked.

Though he had his suspicions, he couldn’t help but be startled... The actions of his teacher were too swift, weren’t they?

What Wyatt Barnes did not know was that his teacher, upon hearing that the Clark Family of New South Town wanted to kill him, was outraged and immediately ordered the Heavenly Guards and a Sacrificial Officer at the Entering the Saint Realm to go to New South Town and exterminate the Clark Family.

The dignified City Lord of Hill Mountain City, provoked by people from the surrounding area, and that too by a ninth-rate family? How could he swallow this humiliation?

"Wyatt Barnes, with your talent, it’s a sure thing that you’ll join the Moon Radiance Sect in half a year... It’s hard to know when we’ll meet again after you leave," Jemma Clifford sighed when she was called out by Wyatt and learned that he wouldn’t be staying at the Covert Dragons camp for the next half year.

She and Wyatt had joined the Main Mansion of Hill Mountain City together.

Now Wyatt was about to step into a seventh-rate power, while she would still have to struggle in this eighth-rate power.

"I’ll come back to visit the teacher and you when I have time... And besides, you might be able to join the Moon Radiance Sect in the future," Wyatt said with a smile.

The purpose of his visit this time was also to bid farewell to Jemma Clifford.

After all, his departure in half a year would surely be hasty.

At that time, whether Jemma Clifford happened to be in a closed-door cultivation was uncertain... Hence, it was better to say goodbye in advance.

Today, Wyatt merely wanted to try his luck; if Jemma Clifford was in closed-door cultivation, then he would have to come back and look for her another time.

Of course, he was not here to challenge Jemma Clifford.

If he was here to challenge her, naturally he wouldn’t care whether she was in closed-door cultivation or not.

Looking at the receding figure of Wyatt, Jemma Clifford’s gaze was incredibly complex, and she whispered to herself, "Jemma Clifford, such a man is beyond your reach..."

Obviously, Jemma Clifford had developed feelings for Wyatt Barnes during the few months of their acquaintance.

However, she kept these feelings hidden.

She could see that Wyatt only considered her a ’good friend’, nothing more.

If she recklessly broke through this façade, perhaps they would lose even their friendship.

This friendship, she cherished greatly.
