Chapter 2630: Favor
Chapter 2630: Favor
In Ares Cooper’s eyes, the sword light streaking across before him was like a ray of dawn, illuminating the darkness and pulling him out of the abyss!
"Wyatt Barnes?!"
Just as he realized it was Wyatt Barnes who had acted, he was horrified to see:
The sword light that blocked the attacks of eleven Golden Immortal-level marauders continued to whistle out, enveloping those eleven marauders charging towards him.
Like a flood breaching its banks, it roared out, drowning them all.
"No!!"
"No——"
...
Unlike the earlier marauders who were wiped out by Wyatt Barnes before they could react, this group of marauders, belatedly realizing, came to their senses.
Facing Wyatt Barnes’ unstoppable Sword Array, they couldn’t help but let out shrill screams.
After the screams, there was only a rain of blood falling from the sky.
Swoosh!
Wyatt Barnes stretched out his large hand, an invisible force swept out, collecting all the ’Storage Rings’ from the twenty-some people he had just killed, enveloped in the blood mist.
These were his ’spoils of war’.
"How is this possible?!"
"Damn! How can this purple-clad kid be so powerful?!"
The black and white brothers, retreating step by step under Christian Clark’s attacks, also noticed that their group of subordinates had been completely wiped out. For a moment, they stole a glance at the purple figure not far away, their eyes unanimously filled with shock.
However, after the shock, they hurriedly returned to focus, dealing specifically with Christian Clark’s onslaught, not daring to be distracted.
"Wyatt Barnes, thanks."
Ares Cooper looked at Wyatt Barnes, with a look of shock in his eyes, he said gravely, "I, Ares Cooper, owe you my life!"
"It was a trivial matter, not worth mentioning."
Hearing Ares Cooper’s words, Wyatt Barnes smiled faintly, "If it were someone else accompanying me today, I would have saved them the same."
"I know."
Ares Cooper nodded, but his gaze remained as steadfast as before, "But this doesn’t change the fact that I, Ares Cooper, owe you my life."
Facing the stubborn Ares Cooper, Wyatt Barnes shrugged somewhat helplessly, but didn’t say much more.
However, although he appeared helpless on the surface, in his heart, he quite admired Ares Cooper’s stubbornness.
At least it showed:
This Ares Cooper is someone who knows gratitude.
"Elder Christian Clark’s side... should soon have a conclusion."
A moment later, Wyatt Barnes’ gaze fell into the distance, where he could just make out:
Under Christian Clark’s relentless barrage like a fierce storm, the black and white brothers were retreating step by step, barely able to hold on for much longer.
About a quarter of an hour later.
Bang! Bang!
Accompanied by two loud explosions, it was the black and white brothers who were exploited by Christian Clark to breach their defenses, sending them flying and severely injuring them.
"Pfft—"
"Wah—"
Each of the heavily injured black and white brothers spewed out a mouthful of clotted blood in unison, like arrows shooting from a bow, their battered figures barely coming to a halt after a moment.
"Big brother, let’s use a soul attack to kill that purple-clad kid!"
Seeing Christian Clark coming with a victorious pursuit, the black-robed elder, resigned to certain death, whispered coldly to the white-robed elder beside him, decisively.
"Alright!"
The white-robed elder, who was also ready to die, cooperated with the black-robed elder, both looking at Wyatt Barnes not far away.
"Hmm?"
Locked in by the gazes of the black and white brothers, Wyatt Barnes was momentarily stunned.
When he saw the cruel smile at the corners of the black and white brothers’ mouths, he felt a chill in his heart, and a sense of foreboding rose within him...
"Not good!"
Christian Clark, in his victorious pursuit and seeing the black and white brothers ignoring his onslaught and focusing intently on Wyatt Barnes, suddenly realized their intentions, his face changing dramatically.
Shwoosh! Shwoosh!
Almost at the moment Christian Clark’s expression changed, the black and white brothers’ eyes suddenly focused, and a dark gray glint shot from their foreheads towards Wyatt Barnes, in a brutally straightforward manner.
It was their ’soul attack’ being unleashed!
Whoosh!
Even though Wyatt Barnes disappeared in a flash, the two dark gray lights remained locked onto him, curving towards where he reappeared, seemingly unwilling to relent until they pierced into his body.
Moreover, the speed of these two dark gray lights was faster than Wyatt Barnes’ flashing movement.
Wyatt Barnes dodged multiple times, yet they drew closer and closer to him...
Seeing the two dark gray lights about to shoot into Wyatt Barnes’ body.
Whoosh!
With a swift sound cutting through the air, yet another dark gray light shot out.
It was Christian Clark, timely deploying a soul attack, intending to intercept the soul attacks from the black and white brothers.
However, like the Black and White duo, he also wasn’t skilled in soul attacks.
So his soul attack only managed to intercept one of the soul attacks from the Black and White duo.
Whoosh!
The remaining soul attack, a dark-gray streak of light, shot directly into Wyatt Barnes’ body.
"Wyatt Barnes!"
Christian Clark’s expression changed dramatically.
The Black and White duo displayed cruel smiles.
Seeing the cruel smiles on the faces of the Black and White duo, Ares Cooper seemed to realize something too, his expression changed drastically, "Wyatt Barnes..."
Just when everyone thought Wyatt Barnes would fall victim to the soul attack from the Purple Sun Golden Immortal.
"The soul attack from the Purple Sun Golden Immortal is indeed quite fast... Unfortunately, at your level, your soul attacks aren’t enough to break through the protection provided by my soul defense Immortal Artifact!"
Wyatt Barnes not only stood firm but glanced at the Black and White duo casually, speaking calmly.
With that mysterious ’fragmented iron piece,’ he naturally had no fear of the soul attacks from the Black and White duo.
Earlier, the reason he moved to dodge was to test whether he could evade the soul attacks from the Black and White duo...
In the end, he realized:
Unless he used the Heavenly Artifact ’Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword’ merged into the Sword Array to flee, he couldn’t escape the soul attacks from the Black and White duo.
"Soul defense Immortal Artifact?"
Upon hearing Wyatt’s words, the Black and White duo’s expressions changed drastically, and they coughed up blood in anger, their faces turning even paler.
They never expected:
The purple-robed youth beside Christian Clark actually possessed a soul defense Immortal Artifact!
Moreover, being capable of defending against their Golden Immortal-level soul attack indicated that Wyatt’s soul defense Immortal Artifact was at least a ’medium-grade Immortal Artifact.’
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!
...
Accompanied by a whirlwind that swept up solid ’Alejandro Wind,’ the Black and White duo ultimately met their demise at Christian Clark’s hands, leaving only two Storage Rings that were drawn into his hand with a gesture.
"Phew~~"
Seeing Wyatt Barnes unharmed, Ares Cooper breathed a long sigh of relief.
"Elder Christian."
At the same time, Wyatt Barnes raised his hand and retrieved more than twenty Storage Rings he had collected earlier, sending them toward Christian Clark with invisible force.
"These are your ’spoils of war,’ keep them for yourself."
With a gesture, Christian Clark returned more than twenty Storage Rings to Wyatt Barnes and smiled slightly.
Now, Christian Clark’s gaze toward Wyatt Barnes had completely changed.
In the past, although he knew Wyatt Barnes wasn’t weak, he never imagined Wyatt’s strength was this formidable...
In just a brief moment, Wyatt had killed all twenty-plus people under the Black and White duo!
To know this, the strongest under the Black and White duo was a ’Yellow Sun Golden Immortal,’ even the weakest was an ’Red Sun Golden Immortal.’
To be able to kill multiple Golden Immortals in an instant, even without concerns, isn’t something an ordinary Golden Immortal can achieve...
At least, someone with the strength of a ’Cyan Sun Golden Immortal’ can accomplish this with assurance.
"A ’Cyan Sun Golden Immortal’ under one hundred years old... This time among the eighteen selected from our Nine Nether County’s nine cities, his strength is definitely the strongest!"
"And even among the twelve under one hundred-year-old Golden Immortals selected by our County Governor’s Mansion in Nine Nether County’s County City, none can compare to him!"
Christian Clark mused silently.
"Thank you, Elder Christian."
Seeing Christian Clark return more than twenty Storage Rings, Wyatt Barnes received them with gratitude.
"Wyatt Barnes, I never imagined you were so powerful... I thought you two were going to die at the hands of the group under the Black and White duo. Then, even if I returned to the County Governor’s Mansion, I’d have no way to explain to Lord County Governor."
Christian Clark expressed in awe as he looked at Wyatt Barnes.
"Anyway... this time, I owe you a ’favor.’
Christian Clark added.
"Elder Christian is too kind."
Wyatt Barnes shook his head and said, "What I did earlier was only to save my life... I’m afraid I cannot accept Elder Christian’s ’favor.’
"If I say you can accept it, then you can... don’t refuse further."
Christian Clark gestured for Wyatt Barnes not to refuse, then continued shaking his head, "Strange... Others wish for me to owe them ’favors’ impatiently. Now, you little fellow want to subtly refuse my ’favor.’
Wyatt Barnes smiled wryly but didn’t say anything else.
At this moment, what else could he say?
Anyway, Christian Clark owing him a favor is a boon without any downside, essentially a great benefit to him.
"With your talent and strength, arriving at our County Governor’s Mansion, you’ll undoubtedly receive the greatest preferential treatment... Once we arrive, I’ll personally recommend you to Lord County Governor, trying to offer you the best training environment and resources."
Christian Clark told Wyatt Barnes.
"Thank you, Elder Christian."
Hearing Christian Clark’s words, Wyatt Barnes’ eyes shone brightly, and he sincerely thanked him.
Right now, these are exactly what he lacks.
