Almost as soon as Wyatt Barnes had finished speaking, a voice like thunder boomed from afar, drawing closer.
The sound was deafening, causing Taoi Romero and others to change their expressions drastically.
They did not react this way because of the voice that appeared out of nowhere, but because they were already familiar with it.
Crescent Island's plight was entirely due to this person.
"I wondered why they came back after escaping. So, they were waiting for you... That makes you the new master of Crescent Island, the Sect Leader of Heaven Fortin Sect, 'Wyatt Barnes'?"
As the voice came again, a figure appeared in the secluded and quiet valley.
A middle-aged man in a golden robe, with a strong build like a towering iron structure, hovered in mid-air, scrutinizing Wyatt Barnes from above with a cold gaze.
At that moment, Wyatt Barnes felt an overwhelming mental force sweep over him, enveloping his entire body, as if he were being spied upon.
