Legend of Wyatt

"Walter Simmons, having received the Demon Race’s inheritance, is now caught between human and demon?"

"As a human, everything is normal; as a demon, he loses his rationality and becomes a killing machine?"

After Keer’s explanation, Wyatt Barnes finally understood the events that had transpired in Walter Simmons’ life over the years, and couldn’t help but break into a cold sweat for his former friend.

Because he was aware of the dangers within!

Not to mention anything else.

Walter, upon becoming demonic, nearly couldn’t distinguish friend from foe, certainly provoking many people.

For Walter to have survived under such circumstances was truly fortunate.

Moreover, Walter not being completely consumed by the demonic nature, transforming entirely into a demon, was even more fortunate within his fortune!

"Unexpectedly, so much has happened to Walter over the years."

Wyatt sighed involuntarily.

Meanwhile, he turned to Keer and asked, "Keer, you just mentioned... that the white-clothed woman named ’Addison Tasker’ is the one who helped Walter suppress the demonic nature, so Walter agreed to become her sword slave?"

"Yes."

Keer nodded and continued, "I told Walter, if he wanted to rid himself of Addison Tasker, I could help him... Whether to force her to willingly give him up as a sword slave or to kill her!"

Saying this, a hint of cold light flashed through Keer’s eyes.

She knew the relationship between Walter and Brother Leandro well.

She also knew, if Brother Leandro learned of Walter’s situation, he would certainly act similarly...

"But he refused me."

"He said... A real man keeps his word and should not break promises!"

Speaking of this, Keer sounded a bit helpless.

"He’s just that kind of man."

Hearing these words, Wyatt also felt helpless but understood that Walter was indeed such a person, who held firmly to his convictions without easily changing them.

Moreover, this time Addison Tasker indeed helped him and was kind to him.

"He... wouldn’t have promised to be Addison Tasker’s sword slave for life, would he?"

Wyatt asked again, while his gaze fell on three figures in the distance.

There, the white-clothed as-snow Addison Tasker was leading Walter in greeting the gray-robed elder.

The unassuming gray-robed elder looked back at him the moment Wyatt glanced over.

"He..."

And just this one glance made Wyatt realize the gray-robed elder’s extraordinariness.

"Even the Eight Tribulations Scattered Immortal I killed earlier... is probably not as formidable as him!"

After a brief exchange of glances with the gray-robed elder, a thought spontaneously arose in Wyatt’s mind.

"Could this elder be a ’Nine Tribulations Loose Immortal’?"

With this in mind, Wyatt’s pupils slightly contracted.

Upon arrival, his gaze swept over the scattered immortals present, including this gray-robed elder...

But this elder had always stood unobtrusively in a corner, and so he hadn’t noticed anything peculiar.

Now, as the elder interacted with Addison Tasker and Walter, revealing his exceptional nature, Wyatt suddenly became aware:

This elder is, in all probability, a ’Nine Tribulations Loose Immortal’!

"No, he’s not."

Hearing Wyatt’s inquiry, Keer shook her head and replied, "Walter said... it seems that he promised to be Addison Tasker’s sword slave for a century. In other words, he can regain his freedom after a hundred years."

"A century? That’s not too bad..."

Wyatt breathed a sigh of relief, relieved that Walter hadn’t foolishly pledged to be someone’s sword slave for life.

Though, inside the Outer Heaven Secret Realm, there’s no binding ’Thunder Punishment Oath’.

Nonetheless, with Walter’s grateful nature, he needs no such oath to bind him...

"Addison Tasker really got lucky this time."

Now, Winnie Romero looked at Wyatt and said, "Brother Barnes, do you know who obtained the Daai Law Golden Immortal inheritance when the Outer Heaven Secret Realm opened this time?"

"It’s not Walter, is it?"

Hearing Winnie’s previous remarks, Wyatt remained puzzled, unable to grasp her meaning.

Yet with her latter words, he somewhat guessed the situation.

"It was Walter."

Winnie nodded, glanced at Keer beside her, and said, "Speaking of which, Walter getting the Daai Law Golden Immortal inheritance was all thanks to Sister Keer... Without her clearing the obstacles, he wouldn’t have had the chance to acquire that inheritance."

"Keer?"

Wyatt was stunned, even though he knew Keer’s current strength was formidable, he hadn’t anticipated her aiding Walter in obtaining the Daai Law Golden Immortal inheritance.

"It can only be said that Walter and the Daai Law Golden Immortal inheritance were fated."

As Wyatt looked at Keer, she continued, "At that time, all of us reached the Daai Law Golden Immortal inheritance... Yet, ultimately the inheritance uniquely chose Walter."

"It can only be said... we are not destined for that inheritance."

"Also, it might be because among us, only Walter is a ’sword cultivator’... and the one who left that Daai Law Golden Immortal inheritance was a ’Sword Immortal’ of Daai Law Golden Immortal level!"

Saying this, Keer’s gaze could not help but sweep over her sister Paisley Flores, the current generation Destiny lineage descendant of the Seven Terminating Sect ’Ivy Clad’, and Winnie Romero.

Previously, at the Daai Law Golden Immortal inheritance site, for each of them, the inheritance was almost within reach.

However, in the end, the Daai Law Golden Immortal inheritance surprisingly chose the person who was the farthest from them, ’Walter Simmons.’

"Did Walter Simmons really receive the Daai Law Golden Immortal inheritance?"

"And... it’s actually the Sword Immortal’s inheritance?"

After receiving confirmation from Keer, Wyatt Barnes finally came back to his senses, and a radiant smile appeared on his face.

Originally, he was thinking:

This Daai Law Golden Immortal inheritance, I wonder who has obtained it...

After all, if he hadn’t been delayed, he would certainly have had a great chance of obtaining that Daai Law Golden Immortal inheritance.

But now, upon learning that the Daai Law Golden Immortal inheritance was obtained by Walter Simmons, the little bit of regret left in his heart vanished completely.

After all, the fat water has not flowed into outsiders’ fields!

"So... that Addison Tasker also indeed picked up a huge bargain."

Wyatt Barnes looked at the distant woman in white, his gaze flickering slightly.

Meanwhile, over on Walter Simmons’ side.

"This time when the Outer Heaven Secret Realm opened, the Daai Law Golden Immortal inheritance that appeared... turned out to be the Sword Immortal’s inheritance?"

The elderly man in grey robes learned from the woman in white, ’Addison Tasker,’ that this time the Daai Law Golden Immortal inheritance that appeared when the Outer Heaven Secret Realm opened was actually the Sword Immortal’s inheritance, and his pupils couldn’t help but shrink slightly.

"Yes, Elder Ancestor."

In front of the elderly man in grey, Addison Tasker was very respectful, as if reverently worshipping Buddha.

"Did you... manage to get that Sword Immortal inheritance?"

When the elderly man looked at Addison Tasker again, there was a strong sense of expectation in his gleaming eyes.

Addison Tasker shook her head.

Instantly, the expectation in the elder’s eyes disappeared, replaced by disappointment.

"Do you know who got it?"

The elder asked again.

"It was him."

At this moment, Addison Tasker looked at Walter Simmons beside her and said.

At this moment, her gaze revealed a trace of envy.

"Him?"

At this moment, the elder’s gaze fell on Walter Simmons again, and it underwent a profound change compared to before.

After all, he originally thought this young man in blood-colored clothes was merely Addison Tasker’s ’Sword Slave.’

But unexpectedly, Addison Tasker’s Sword Slave had actually obtained that Sword Immortal inheritance!

"Hmm."

Addison Tasker nodded, "His strength was originally far inferior to mine... but after he obtained the Sword Immortal inheritance, his strength not only caught up to me but also shows signs of surpassing me!"

Upon hearing Addison Tasker’s words, the elder looked intensely at Walter Simmons and, somewhat surprisingly, asked, "Since you have obtained the Daai Law Golden Immortal inheritance, your strength is already comparable to that of Jennifer... why do you still abide by your previous promise and act as her Sword Slave?"

"A man cannot stand without faith!"

In the face of the elder’s inquiry, Walter Simmons replied indifferently with just this one sentence.

Upon hearing Walter Simmons’ words, even Addison Tasker couldn’t help but feel slightly moved...

"What a ’man cannot stand without faith’!"

Upon hearing Walter Simmons’ words, the elder was not stingy with compliments and then looked at Addison Tasker, saying, "Jennifer, this time I’ll make a decision for you... From now on, Walter Simmons is no longer your Sword Slave, that promise is void."

"Do you... agree?"

The elder asked.

"I will follow Elder Ancestor’s instruction."

However, upon hearing the elder’s words, Addison Tasker was momentarily stunned, but then immediately nodded in agreement.

"Senior, this..."

Seeing this scene, Walter Simmons couldn’t help but frown.

"Walter!"

Before the elder could speak, Addison Tasker had already spoken to him first: "It’s not you breaking the promise, but I voluntarily releasing you from being my Sword Slave... so you don’t need to have any psychological burden."

"This..."

Walter Simmons looked at Addison Tasker as if he had just met her for the first time.

In his impression, Addison Tasker was not this kind of understanding person.

"It seems, her actions are also related to me obtaining the Daai Law Golden Immortal inheritance, and related to this elder of the Xuan Yuan Mansion."

This point, Walter Simmons also found it not hard to guess.

"It’s settled then!"

At the same time, the elder spoke up, while looking at Walter Simmons and smilingly asked, "Walter Simmons, I’d like to invite you to join our ’Xuan Yuan Mansion’... are you willing?"

"Here it is!"

Walter Simmons had vaguely sensed that things were not that simple. Now, upon hearing the elder’s words, he immediately knew he had guessed correctly.

The elder first made Addison Tasker abandon him as her Sword Slave.

Then turned around and invited him to join the Xuan Yuan Mansion...

This was clearly an attempt to tightly anchor him to the big ship known as ’Xuan Yuan Mansion’!
