Chapter 1828: Chapter 1828: An Unexpected Person
"No! Impossible!"
"How could it be such a coincidence? How could this Wyatt be that Wyatt Barnes!"
...
Tommy Dunn found it hard to accept this fact.
Because if the Wyatt in front of him was indeed that Wyatt Barnes, then the chipped monument in Wyatt’s hand would be none other than the ’Demon Sealing Monument,’ one of the top ten super artifacts on the Top Ten Sacred Artifact List!
With Wyatt’s strength, using the Demon Sealing Monument, even a Demon Cultivator at the peak of the Human Saint Realm could be suppressed!
And he was merely an early-stage Demon Cultivator of the Human Saint Realm.
At this moment, Tommy Dunn wished everything Wyatt said was a lie, but the apprehensive feeling brought by the chipped monument in Wyatt’s hand was undeniably real, not a figment of his imagination.
"It’s over."
Wyatt glanced at Tommy Dunn dismissively, inwardly noting without intending to waste further words on him.
Whoosh!
At the same time, Wyatt raised his hand, wielding the ’Demon Sealing Monument,’ and the solar True Origin inside him surged forth, merging into the Demon Sealing Monument.
In an instant, the monument trembled even more violently.
Deep black mist began to emerge from the monument, swirling around its surface.
Eventually, it solidified into strands of black lightning, which gave an unshakable feeling of fear.
When the monument’s aura was released, even those who weren’t Demon Cultivators would feel a sense of fear, let alone a Demon Cultivator who was specifically countered by the monument!
As Wyatt infused True Origin into the monument, Tommy Dunn realized he had been locked onto by an incredibly menacing force.
In the face of this aura, he couldn’t even summon the urge to resist.
Moreover, under this lock, he found his internal power stagnating, no matter how hard he tried to mobilize it.
"No!"
Tommy Dunn was utterly terrified!
At this moment, he was a hundred percent certain that the unassuming chipped monument in Wyatt’s hand was undoubtedly the ’Demon Sealing Monument’!
If it weren’t for the Demon Sealing Monument, it couldn’t possibly restrain him in such a way.
And Wyatt’s true identity was indeed that of ’Wyatt Barnes’!
"Wyatt Barnes, it’s all my fault, all my fault! I shouldn’t have been so arrogant, shouldn’t have bullied others with power and influence! You were right to hit me... it was right to kick me out of the Shengwu secret land, I deserved it!"
"As long as you don’t kill me, I promise I won’t reveal your identity, and I won’t hold a grudge or seek revenge against you... I can swear an oath under Thunder Punishment! I swear I can!"
"Spare me... please, spare me!"
Facing Wyatt, who was ready to strike with the Demon Sealing Monument, Tommy Dunn, no matter how much he hated Wyatt, had to yield.
If he didn’t, the monument would smash him, and he would die without a doubt!
Facing life and death, Tommy Dunn valued his life above all, fixing on the one thought to survive; nothing else mattered!
Now, even if told to kill his father and grandfather, if survival were at stake, he would comply!
Under the monument’s suppression, even if he practiced the ’Soul Gathering’ techniques from the Devouring Dark_Demon Art, they would be futile, as the monument targeted the soul, annihilating the Demon Cultivator’s soul instantly upon attack.
In front of the monument’s assault, the ’Soul Gathering’ technique was utterly meaningless!
However, facing Tommy Dunn’s plea and submission, Wyatt completely ignored him, silently hurling the ’Demon Sealing Monument’ at him!
Boom!!
As the monument was flung out, the void quaked, sending ripples outward, with a vast storm crashing forth, scattering the surrounding mist as if an explosion had occurred.
Whoosh!
As the monument passed through, the sounds of wind and thunder echoed; in an instant, it was near Tommy Dunn.
"No!!"
In this moment, Wyatt could only let out a silent scream of despair in his heart.
After throwing the monument, Wyatt watched coldly.
In his eyes, using his solar True Origin to fuel the monument, eliminating Tommy Dunn was a simple feat.
Tommy Dunn’s death was without suspense.
Rumble!!
Yet, just as the monument was about to finish off Tommy Dunn from not far in front, a massive boom resounded in the void.
Following the boom was a more immense surge of soaring demonic energy!
"Who is it?!"
Hearing the boom and sensing the formidable demonic energy, Wyatt immediately drew the ’Splendid Fairy Sword,’ his eyes wary as he looked to the horizon.
The boom erupted from a force breaking through from that direction.
That force was incredibly strong and filled with alarming demonic energy, clearly from a powerful Demon Cultivator acting from the shadows.
Whoosh!
At the same time, the ’Demon Sealing Monument’ that was only a short distance away from Tommy Dunn and about to suppress him, suddenly paused in mid-air, as if it sensed something, behaving as though inertia didn’t exist for it.
However, after that brief pause, it did not change its target and continued to lock onto Tommy Dunn, advancing towards him.
And just in that flash of lightning, under Wyatt Barnes’ gaze, a graceful figure appeared in his field of vision like a bolt of lightning.
Once the figure emerged, she dashed towards him with imposing momentum at the fastest speed.
"It’s her!"
In Wyatt Barnes’ line of sight, the graceful figure rapidly enlarged, and at the same time, her true appearance clearly fell into Wyatt Barnes’ eyes.
Wyatt Barnes never expected that he would meet this woman here!
Although years had passed, and the woman’s appearance had changed slightly, he still recognized her at a glance!
The woman was none other than the bratty ’young lady’ he encountered in the Nine Sect Alliance area, Eliel Howard, the young lady of the Howard Family in Thames River City!
Because of this Eliel Howard, Wyatt Barnes later had quite a bit of conflict with the Howard Family.
However, he later heard that the Howard Family was annihilated.
He thought that Eliel Howard was finished, yet he never expected she was still alive and appeared right before him.
Not only that, years later, Eliel Howard’s strength seemed even stronger than his!
No!
Not only stronger than him, but even compared to Tommy Dunn, she was vastly superior.
It should be noted that back in those days, Eliel Howard was far inferior to him!
"What fortuitous encounter did this Eliel Howard experience? Years ago, she was weaker than me, but today, her cultivation strength is already above mid-stage Human Saint Realm!"
In the flash of lightning, countless thoughts popped up in Wyatt Barnes’ mind.
"Wyatt Barnes, you caused the annihilation of my Howard Family, led my brother to his tragic death... Today, I shall kill you, avenge my brother, and the Howard Family!"
At the same time, a cold voice of a woman reached Wyatt Barnes’ ears, it was exactly ’Eliel Howard’s voice.
In a split second, Wyatt Barnes didn’t even have time to react, as Eliel Howard had already appeared in front of him, less than an inch away, with her red eyes staring at him.
A vast power accompanied by overwhelming demonic energy rose from her, imposing immense pressure on Wyatt Barnes.
"She’s a Demon Cultivator too!"
While Wyatt Barnes sensed danger, he gasped secretly.
Swoosh!
Seemingly sensing its master’s crisis, the Demon Sealing Monument paused momentarily instead of suppressing Tommy Dunn, then disregarded inertia, and in the blink of an eye turned towards Eliel Howard, abandoning Tommy Dunn.
"Die!!"
Before the Demon Sealing Monument could turn towards her, Eliel Howard conjured a narrow saber in her hand out of thin air, the saber containing overwhelming demonic energy and immense power, cut through the air, straight towards Wyatt Barnes.
Eliel Howard’s eyes were completely filled with the blood-red light of hatred, at this moment, her eyes only had Wyatt Barnes, and she seemed to be ignoring the Demon Sealing Monument rushing towards her.
Clearly, even at the risk of dying, she wanted to take down Wyatt Barnes!
In her view, if it weren’t for Wyatt Barnes, her Howard Family wouldn’t have been annihilated, and her brother wouldn’t have been sent to that sinister place to perish.
Moreover, she wouldn’t have suffered torment in that sinister place, narrowly escaping death, before finally acquiring the legacy of the ancient demon cultivator left there.
It was precisely due to acquiring the legacy of the ancient demon cultivator hidden in the place known as ’Demonic Ridge of the Shadows’, that Eliel Howard’s cultivation had a meteoric rise over the years.
Until today, she had reached the ’late-stage Human Saint Realm’!
Even surpassing Tommy Dunn by two levels!
As Eliel Howard’s saber struck, Wyatt Barnes felt immense pressure.
This pressure made him almost suffocate!
Despite being the first to act, even though the Demon Sealing Monument was fast, it was difficult for it to subdue Eliel Howard before her saber reached Wyatt Barnes.
Hence, the Demon Sealing Monument couldn’t save Wyatt Barnes!
At least, not at this moment.
"Splendid Fairy Sword, it’s up to you!"
As soon as Eliel Howard showed up, exhibiting strength above mid-stage Human Saint Realm, Wyatt Barnes had secretly been on guard.
The ninety-nine Saint Veins within him directed all his True Origin to his hands, prepared for action!
Seeing Eliel Howard’s saber coming at him, Wyatt Barnes activated the True Origin he had already prepared, pouring it all without reservation into the Splendid Fairy Sword!
Because this concerns life and death, a minor mistake could lead to eternal damnation!
Therefore, the True Origin Wyatt Barnes infused into the Splendid Fairy Sword was almost all of his True Origin, truly done without reservation!
Wyatt Barnes’s True Origin entirety fused into the Splendid Fairy Sword, similar to a Great Saint Realm peak martial artist channeling its True Origin, causing the Splendid Fairy Sword to radiate brilliantly, exuding terrifying energy.
Around its blade, solidified golden sword energy appeared simultaneously.
Whiz!!
Having greedily absorbed all of Wyatt Barnes’ True Origin, the Splendid Fairy Sword shot out with the flick of Wyatt Barnes’s hand, finally heading towards Eliel Howard’s saber.
