Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
...
Wyatt Barnes exerted all his strength, revealing a ’Sword Array’ that swept forth, creating a terrifying void fissure in space, rushing towards the gaunt middle-aged man.
The posture was as if to kill the gaunt middle-aged man!
However, the nacing Sword Array mysteriously stopped ten ters away from the gaunt middle-aged man, pausing in space.
In the void ten ters away from the gaunt middle-aged man, it seed as if a force guarded there, like a mire.
Wyatt’s Sword Array, upon nearing, sank into it, unable to move an inch...
Ti seed to halt at this mont.
At this mont, Wyatt’s Sword Array seed to completely lose its montum, maintaining a very fast speed till ten ters away from the gaunt middle-aged man.
But when it reached only ten ters away, it suddenly stopped.
The halted Sword Array, in a blink, vanished like fireworks passing by.
Only an immortal sword remained, paused in the void ten ters away from the gaunt middle-aged man...
The brilliance on it had completely dissipated at so unknown ti.
Throughout, the gaunt middle-aged man stood motionless, his expression unchanged.
His robe didn’t even stir a bit.
"This..."
Lainey Don withdrew her shocked gaze from Wyatt Barnes, revealing a bitter smile.
Earlier, the commotion caused by Wyatt Barnes’s full-force strike made even her involuntarily glance over.
At the sa ti, she realized:
Wyatt Barnes’s strike power had far surpassed the strength of a ’Nine Tribulations Loose Immortal’!
As the gaunt middle-aged man said:
Wyatt Barnes’s strike power could rival the strength of a Golden Immortal from the celestial realms!
Yet, even with Wyatt Barnes’s strength comparable to a Golden Immortal, he couldn’t harm the gaunt middle-aged man a bit...
After all, according to the gaunt middle-aged man:
His strength was above many Heavenly Emperors of the celestial realms!
"Like an ant!"
The gaunt middle-aged man looked at Wyatt Barnes, speaking faintly, with disdain and contempt in his eyes.
Smack!
In the next mont, with a re thought from the gaunt middle-aged man, the immortal sword suspended ten ters away from him bizarrely snapped in two.
"What a pity..."
anwhile, the gaunt middle-aged man swept a glance at Wyatt Barnes, "As I said before, if your attack could reach within ten ters of , I’d leave you a complete corpse..."
"Now, I can only turn you to dust!"
As the gaunt middle-aged man’s words fell, he slowly took a step forward.
This seemingly slow step he took was like a giant hamr pounding onto Wyatt Barnes’s chest, making Wyatt Barnes feel a tightness in his chest.
Imdiately followed by a suffocating sensation spreading throughout Wyatt Barnes’s body in a flash.
At this mont, Wyatt Barnes seed to sll the ’scent’ of death...
"Keer, Jovie..."
As Wyatt Barnes gave a tragic smile, two shadows appeared in his mind.
Then, another shadow appeared, "Winnie..."
Shortly, the images of his parents, children, and friends flashed through his mind.
His heart was full of unwillingness.
Even though he had guessed the outco when he made the attack,
But facing this outco truly, his heart was still unwilling, unwilling to die here, unwilling to die at the hands of Rocky Cloud’s people!
"Wyatt Barnes!"
Lainey Don, who noticed the gaunt middle-aged man about to act against Wyatt Barnes, although eager to help Wyatt Barnes, felt powerless.
Her strength was even inferior to Wyatt Barnes.
Wyatt Barnes was defenseless before the opponent, let alone her?
"Should there be a next life, rember well... not every woman is within your reach!"
The gaunt middle-aged man, eyes filled with contempt and disdain as he stared at Wyatt Barnes, had no expression of joy or sorrow.
Next, without any visible action from him, his aura suddenly changed, as if an invisible gale swept out, enveloping Wyatt Barnes.
For the gaunt middle-aged man, killing soone like Wyatt Barnes, akin to an ant, didn’t even require physical action.
With a re thought, he could kill the opponent!
In a re mont, an invisible force extended from the gaunt middle-aged man, like the scythe of death, ready to claim Wyatt Barnes...
Throughout, neither Wyatt Barnes nor Lainey Don noticed the force unleashed by the gaunt middle-aged man’s thought, nor did they have the ti to react.
Because it happened so quickly!
Seeing the invisible force extending from him about to engulf Wyatt Barnes, a cruel smile appeared at the corner of the gaunt middle-aged man’s mouth...
In his view:
A re ’half-step immortal’ from the mundane realms, once enveloped by his force, would swiftly turn to dust!
However.
Just as the gaunt middle-aged man’s force was about to reach Wyatt Barnes, at the critical mont.
Sudden transformation!
At this mont, the cruel smile at the corners of the thin middle-aged man’s mouth instantly froze.
Rip!
Accompanied by a sound of sothing tearing, a massive rift suddenly opened up in the space in front of Wyatt Barnes, revealing a space rift.
This space rift appeared very tily, and as soon as it erged, it swallowed all the force attacking Wyatt Barnes from the thin middle-aged man.
"Who are you?!"
The thin middle-aged man’s expression changed, his eyes coldly staring at the suddenly appearing space rift, while shouting.
It was as if soone was hiding behind this space rift.
"Hmm?"
Just as Wyatt Barnes and Lainey Don’s attention was drawn to the suddenly appearing space rift.
"It’s ."
From within the space rift, a lazy and indifferent voice suddenly sounded.
Following the voice, a shabby figure limped out from the space rift, holding a Wine Gourd, occasionally taking a sip.
Judging by the figure, the person was an adult male.
Because his ssy hair draped over his head and he always kept his head down, his appearance was concealed, making it difficult to discern whether he was young, middle-aged, or old.
However, from his robust, coarse voice, it could be inferred:
He should be a middle-aged man.
"This..."
Looking at the man who erged from the space rift, dressed in ragged clothing, resembling a ’beggar,’ Wyatt Barnes and Lainey Don were both stunned.
His thod of appearance suggested that his power was at least above the ’Daai Law Golden Immortal’ level in the higher planes of heaven...
"Hmm?"
Seeing the man who looked like a ’beggar,’ the thin middle-aged man revealed a color of uncertainty at first.
Then, his gaze fell to the identity token that hung from the man’s waist, faintly catching sight of a character inscribed on it.
The character ’Ernest’ was prominently engraved on it.
Swoosh!
Almost upon seeing the ’Ernest’ character engraved on the individual’s identity token, the thin middle-aged man’s expression drastically changed again.
In the next mont, he took a deep breath, respectfully bowed to the man who resembled a beggar:
"Wilder Cloud from the Cloud Family, greetings to Lord Ernest Sumr!"
Now, the thin middle-aged man displayed none of the arrogance he showed facing Wyatt Barnes, appearing exceedingly humble.
Compared to his previous deanor, he seed like a different person entirely!
"Wilder Cloud?"
The man called Ernest Sumr slightly raised his head, glancing faintly at the thin middle-aged man, "The ’space passage’ between the Divine Ruin Lands and the higher planes of heaven is about to close... why aren’t you, a mber of the Cloud Family, returning to the Divine Ruin Lands at this ti?"
"Lord Ernest Sumr."
Facing Ernest Sumr’s inquiry, Wilder Cloud dared not delay, imdiately looking at Wyatt Barnes, "I ca under the order of my master, Lewis, to execute this man..."
"I presu Lord Ernest Sumr you’ve heard: there’s a re mortal who tainted Miss Scarlett’s reincarnation..."
Wilder Cloud explained.
Smack!
However, just as Wilder Cloud’s words fell, the crisp sound of a slap resonated.
After the slap sound, Wyatt Barnes and Lainey Don saw:
A distinct palm print appeared on Wilder Cloud’s face...
"Lord Ernest Sumr, you..."
Wilder Cloud’s face changed, looking at Ernest Sumr again, his gaze filled with anger and genuine fear.
"The affair of my Sumr Family’s young lady is not for you, a Cloud Family servant, to comnt on!"
Ernest Sumr, appearing very shabby, suddenly altered his aura at that instant.
This aura gave a natural sense of authority without rage.
"Do you believe... even if I kill you now, the Cloud Family will not pursue this matter!"
Following these words from Ernest Sumr, Wilder Cloud’s face changed again, his anger vanished completely, replaced by sincere apprehension and fear.
"Get out!!"
With Ernest Sumr’s cold voice, Wilder Cloud imdiately seized upon it like a lifeline, tearing open a space rift in the void.
He swiftly leaped into it, vanishing without a trace.
Once Wilder Cloud entered, the space rift quickly closed.
At this mont, he seed to have entirely forgotten that he had not fulfilled his master Lewis’s order to kill Wyatt Barnes...
To him:
His own life was undoubtedly more important than his master’s orders!
Watching the once domineering Wilder Cloud flee like a lost dog...
Both Wyatt Barnes and Lainey Don felt a sense of unreality.
If Wilder Cloud had not exaggerated before, he was a powerhouse greater than the Heavenly Emperor of the higher planes!
"You’re ’Wyatt Barnes’?"
While Wyatt Barnes was still dazed by Wilder Cloud’s departure, the shabby Ernest Sumr imdiately looked towards Wyatt Barnes.
His piercing eyes shot out from beneath ssy hair, seemingly capable of penetrating everything!
