Legend of Wyatt-Chapter 2183: A Dying Struggle

"Why did you harm him?"

Hearing Ricardo Mitchell’s words, Wyatt Barnes glanced at him indifferently and then said unhurriedly, "Actually, it’s nothing much, just that I find you unpleasant to look at... that’s all."

As soon as Wyatt Barnes said this, the entire place erupted in disbelief.

Initially, the people present all thought that since Wyatt Barnes only spoke one sentence to the Vice Hall Master of the Enforcement Hall, ’Ricardo Mitchell,’ before attacking him, it must have been because Ricardo Mitchell had previously offended Wyatt Barnes, prompting Wyatt to act...

They never expected that Wyatt Barnes would deal with Ricardo Mitchell due to such a ’reason’!

"Just because he found Vice Hall Master Mitchell unpleasant, he attacked Vice Hall Master Mitchell?"

"This Wyatt Barnes... is too domineering, right?"

"Even if he is domineering, it’s because he has the ’capital’ to be domineering... I can see it now: with Wyatt Barnes’ current strength, in our Enforcement Hall, it’s likely that only the Lord Hall Master might be able to control him! And that’s just ’might.’"

"Indeed. So far, the strength he has displayed is terrifying... One punch to kill a ’Saint Immortal Fifth Transformation’ expert, suppressing another ’Saint Immortal Fifth Transformation’ expert with a flick of his hand. Before this, if anyone could achieve such feats, only our Lord Hall Master and the Sect Leader of our Fire Worship Sect, along with the Three Great Protectors, could do this."

"I agree as well."

...

The crowd gathered around started discussing again, their words filled with shock at the powerful strength Wyatt Barnes displayed.

On the other side,

Ricardo Mitchell initially wondered if he had unintentionally offended Wyatt Barnes somewhere, which is why Wyatt acted against him without a word.

If that was the case, even if injured by Wyatt Barnes, he would accept it.

After all, it was his own ’lack of foresight’ initially.

However, now hearing Wyatt Barnes’ words, he was initially stunned, then was so infuriated that his entire body trembled violently, anger causing him to spit out a large mouthful of vivid, glaring blood!

"You... you... you..."

Ricardo Mitchell trembled violently in anger and extended his finger shakingly towards Wyatt Barnes, stammering but unable to complete a sentence.

What could he say?

What should he say?

Ricardo Mitchell was completely dumbfounded.

As for retaliating, he simply didn’t have the guts!

If he had only heard about Wyatt Barnes suppressing the White Tiger Altar Master with a flick of his hand, he still didn’t grasp Wyatt’s strength.

But the move Wyatt just pulled on him made him deeply aware of Wyatt Barnes’ terrifying power, "Even the Lord Hall Master... is probably not stronger than him!"

"Moreover, although he injured me, the Vice Hall Master of the Enforcement Hall, it somewhat violates the ’sect rules’... Yet, with his current power, he can ignore these ’rules’!"

"Perhaps, even if he killed me today, nothing would happen... After all, he is not only a powerhouse not inferior to our Enforcement Hall’s Lord Hall Master but also a martial genius under fifty years old!"

"Such an existence is significant to the Fire Worship Sect... Even if he eliminated all Vice Hall Masters in the Enforcement Hall, the Sect Leader and the Protectors might not blame him!"

"As for everyone else, they simply lack the qualifications to blame him!"

In an instant, Ricardo Mitchell’s mind was filled with many thoughts.

And his anger, at this point, vanished without a trace.

Because he knew that even if he continued to be angry, it would be of no use because there was simply nothing he could do about Wyatt Barnes!

"What’s wrong? Do you still have a problem with me, Vice Hall Master Mitchell?"

Wyatt Barnes looked at Ricardo Mitchell and asked calmly.

Although his tone was calm, it struck Ricardo’s ears like a bolt from the blue, startling him back to reality, making him instinctively shake his head hurriedly and say, "No! No!!"

At this point, would he dare have a problem?

If he dared to say yes, what if Wyatt in anger killed him?

Better a live coward than a dead hero!

This was Ricardo Mitchell’s most straightforward thought.

After his words fell, Ricardo Mitchell noticed that the gazes of the people around him had become somewhat peculiar.

For a moment, he only felt endless humiliation, but he had no choice but to endure silently.

Currently, Ricardo Mitchell could never have imagined:

The reason Wyatt Barnes targeted him was not really due to finding him ’unpleasant,’ but because he sent Wyatt’s wife and daughter to the Enforcement Hall, separating their family.

Had it not been for the fact that he was merely acting according to the Fire Worship Sect’s rules, not intentionally targeting Keer’s family, he wouldn’t have been alive now.

"That’s good."

After giving Ricardo Mitchell a deep look again, Wyatt Barnes shifted his gaze to Johnny Reid, saying lightly, "Vice Hall Master Reid... now, it’s time to settle the matter between you and me."

Wyatt Barnes spoke straightforwardly!

The crowd’s gazes swiftly shifted to Johnny Reid.

The purpose of Wyatt Barnes’ arrival, through his earlier shout, was clear to them: it was precisely for the Vice Hall Master of their Enforcement Hall!

"Wyatt Barnes, don’t act too arrogant!"

Before Johnny Reid could speak, his son ’Fore Reid’ had already jumped out, nearly roaring:

"Though I don’t know how you acquired such formidable strength in just a few short years... Do you really think that your level of strength is enough to throw your weight around in our Fire Worship Sect?"

"It’s not just our Fire Worship Sect, even our Enforcement Hall doesn’t fear you! When Lord Hall Master ’Eagle Coldring’ arrives, you’ll surely regret your actions!"

As he spoke, Fore Reid invoked the name of the Enforcement Hall’s Hall Master ’Eagle Coldring,’ hoping to intimidate Wyatt Barnes.

"Enforcement Hall’s Hall Master, Eagle Coldring?"

Upon hearing Fore Reid’s words, Wyatt Barnes narrowed his eyes, a flash of brilliance glinting in the slits.

Years ago, while he was at the Enforcement Hall, he’d heard of Hall Master ’Eagle Coldring,’ knowing Eagle was one of the Fire Worship Sect’s Sect Leader and Three Great Protectors, someone whose cultivation could break through to ’Saint Immortal Seventh Transformation’ at any time.

"Yes! Our Enforcement Hall’s Lord Eagle is a ’Saint Immortal Sixth Transformation Pinnacle Expert’!"

Seeing Wyatt Barnes narrow his eyes, Fore Reid thought Wyatt was afraid, and immediately felt assured, displaying a proud expression.

"So what?"

At this moment, Wyatt Barnes opened his eyes, his lips curling into a cold smile, "Even if your Hall Master Eagle Coldring were here... even if he’s here, why should I fear him?"

"Today, even if he arrives, he cannot change the fate of you Reid Family father and son!"

As Wyatt Barnes spoke, Fore Reid’s face changed dramatically, "You... you..."

Johnny Reid’s pupils contracted involuntarily, his heart trembled.

Could it be that Wyatt Barnes has grown strong enough to disregard their Enforcement Hall’s Hall Master?

With this thought, Johnny Reid couldn’t help but secretly draw a breath of cold air.

Meanwhile, he looked at Wyatt Barnes again and said in a deep voice, "Wyatt Barnes, I remember, though there was some ’conflict’ between you and my son back then, it did not escalate... And I never intended to intervene for him."

"You’ve come today, do you intend to reopen ’old grievances’? To escalate the ’small conflict’ that was sealed years ago?"

Johnny Reid’s words left many people moved.

"So... Wyatt Barnes came to our Enforcement Hall today for that small ’conflict’ with Elder Fore several years ago?"

"He’s really making a mountain out of a molehill, isn’t he? It was just a minor conflict... does he need to be so aggressive?"

"I guess it’s because he didn’t have the strength to confront Vice Hall Master back then, so he chose to endure... Now that he’s strong enough, of course, he steps forward."

"Hmph! If Vice Hall Master had wanted to deal with him years ago, would he have survived to today?"

"Now, Vice Hall Master must regret not dealing with him years ago, leaving such a big ’hidden danger’!"

...

After hearing Johnny Reid’s words, the onlookers began discussing and even secretly criticized Wyatt Barnes for being ’vindictive,’ thinking he was making a big deal and not letting go.

"What does it matter if Wyatt Barnes is highly talented?"

"His strength might be great... but I can’t approve of his character!"

"He’s too much. Doesn’t he realize Vice Hall Master could have killed him years ago, and he might not be alive now?"

...

Among the whispers, everyone was supporting ’Johnny Reid.’

This was enough to show:

Johnny Reid’s words successfully directed ’public opinion,’ portraying himself as a victim of failing to eliminate threats fully, casting Wyatt Barnes as one ungrateful and seeking revenge.

Although Wyatt Barnes didn’t care about others’ opinions.

However, seeing the ’effect’ of Johnny Reid’s words still made him very displeased.

"Johnny Reid, to think that at this stage, you’re still struggling!"

Wyatt Barnes looked coldly at Johnny Reid, sarcastically mocking, "Since you speak of yourself so pitifully... then I’ll give you a chance, a chance to survive!"

"If you grasp this chance successfully, today, I won’t kill you two... But if you fail, don’t blame my relentless hand!"

Wyatt Barnes’ words were firm and resonant.

"What chance?"

Johnny Reid asked, a feeling of foreboding rising in his heart.

The next moment, his premonition came true:

"As long as you publicly vow under ’Thunder Punishment,’ saying that three years ago while I was still at the Fire Worship Sect, you did not try to have me killed... Today, I’ll spare you father and son!"

Wyatt Barnes’ continued voice altered Johnny Reid’s face dramatically.
