Mrs. and Mr. Smith

Chapter 447: 446: Kill Order!

Ethan Smith sneered, “A half-step Martial Marquis, huh? I’m genuinely eager to see for myself.”

After obtaining the Venerable Fifth Mountain, Ethan Smith wasn’t exactly certain about his strength and was looking for an expert to test his skills.

Figures like Dudley Lynch and Atticus Kane were no longer capable of driving Ethan to desperation.

“I remember that Dexter Blair is a half-step Martial Marquis, right?” Ethan Smith squinted and said.

Kamden Lee’s face changed. He involuntarily retreated two steps and shouted, “You… what do you want to do?”

“What do I want to do?” Ethan Smith raised an eyebrow, and the next second, a golden light directly hit Kamden Lee’s body!

Kamden Lee’s entire body was hit by a shock. His body was flung away with a “thump”.

This palm strike was powerful, causing Kamden Lee to vomit blood incessantly!

And it was in this moment, Kamden Lee realized the gap in strength between him and Ethan Smith!

He started to panic from the bottom of his heart, but Ethan Smith was already stepping forward, foot glowing, and forcefully landing on Kamden Lee’s chest!

“Chunk!”

A mouthful of fresh blood spewed from Kamden Lee’s mouth.

His chest sunk in several inches, the impact greatly affecting his viscera and bowels.

A glance revealed him as a blood-soaked man.

“Don’t kill me, don’t kill me!” Kamden Lee panicked.

It was difficult for him to become an elder in the Great Saint Sect. If he died in this state, how could he be content?

“Ethan Smith, listen to me!” Kamden Lee trembled in fear.

“I am now an elder of the Great Saint Sect! And the Great Saint Sect is the largest sect in the whole North!”

“You have a grudge against the Taylor family, right? With the Great Saint Sect, you can rise up!”

“I can use my status as an elder and cooperate with you externally and internally!”

Ethan Smith stroked his chin and casually said, “I remember you seemed to have said that it’s not bad to be an ordinary person, right?”

Kamden Lee was taken aback, his voice shaky. “You… what do you mean?”

Ethan Smith smiled and said, “That’s exactly what I mean.”

The voice had just fallen when Ethan Smith was seen kicking towards Kamden Lee’s dantian.

“Boof!”

A crisp sound exploded in Kamden Lee’s lower abdomen.

Then, Kamden Lee felt severe pain in his abdomen, and his Inner Strength was quickly dissipating!

“You… you actually ruined me!” Kamden Lee’s eyes widened!

Ethan Smith mimicked Kamden Lee’s tone and casually said. “Being a mortal and lingering might not be so bad. Isn’t that what you said?”

“You… You! Ethan Smith, I’m going to kill you!” Kamden Lee stared wide-eyed, baring his teeth and roaring madly.

Ethan Smith looked coldly at Kamden Lee and said, “Get lost, and tell Kylan Taylor for me to be conscientious.”

Leaving these words behind, Ethan Smith turned and left.

After leaving far behind, Mike Taylor asked somewhat puzzled, “Why didn’t you kill him?”

Ethan Smith smiled and said, “If I killed him, who would go back and tell Kylan Taylor?”

For Ethan Smith at this moment, what he wanted to do was to challenge the authority of the Taylor family.

Everyone returned to the Great Hall, and before leaving, these wealthy men held Ethan’s hand and said, “Ethan Smith, don’t forget about the imprint inside us…”

Ethan Smith nodded, “Rest assured, as soon as I get results, I will inform everyone immediately.”

After dispersing, Ethan Smith bade farewell to Mike Taylor and left the place.

He didn’t rush to leave Sea City but found a place in Sea City to stay with Evelyn Norton.

Afterward, Ethan Smith took out his phone and sent a message to the Master of the Divine Alchemist Pavilion, inquiring about Evelyn Norton’s physical condition.

Unfortunately, the Pavilion Master had no idea.

“Looks like I’ll have to go looking for that Dudley Lynch.” Ethan Smith squinted, thinking quietly to himself.

The Central Plains, the Lynch family.

Dudley Lynch returned home with a gloomy aura.

“Ricardo, you’re back? Did the matter proceed smoothly?” Kedrick Lynch, the head of the Lynch family, suspiciously asked with a feigned smile.

Dudley didn’t say a word; he just gave Kedrick a cold stare.

Feeling the murderous intent in that gaze, Kedrick’s expression altered instantaneously, and he reflexively retreated two steps.

With a disdainful huff, Dudley turned and went back to his room.

In the great hall, Kedrick looked sorrowful while the noble lady beside him couldn’t help but sigh.

“Ever since Ricardo had that accident, it’s as if he’s become a different person, sigh…,” the noble lady expressed with a sigh.

Kedrick said in a low voice, “If things continue like this, one day, he will disown us as his parents…”

“It’s all our fault…we had set our expectations too high for him, and now, he doesn’t even recognize us…” The noble lady couldn’t help but cover her face and sob quietly.

Kedrick remained silent.

In hindsight, they would rather Ricardo lived as an ordinary person.

In his room, Dudley looked gloomy, and the hoarse voice within his body was on the verge of madness.

“The Dragon Spirit…Ethan Smith actually stole the Dragon Spirit!” Dudley exclaimed angrily.

“No matter what, I must kill Ethan Smith! I must!” echoed the hoarse voice.

With a dark expression, Dudley coldly asked, “Now that Ethan Smith possesses the Divine Dragon Power, with my current strength, I am powerless against him unless I step into the half-step Martial Marquis realm.”

“Go into seclusion.” The hoarse voice rang out again.

“Go to the Hydrating Tower in Dolan, I will help you reach the half-step Martial Marquis realm as swiftly as possible…”

Upon hearing these words, Dudley subtly nodded.

There were only two months left until September 9th.

Yet, news about Dexter Blair regularly surfaced on the Martial Arts Forum these days.

“Rumor has it that Dexter Blair, the young master of the Blair family, effortlessly defeated three half-step Martial Marquis!”

“According to expert reviews, Dexter is expected to become the first amongst Pyro’s younger generation!”

“The Capital City Martial Arts Association values Dexter’s potential and has invited him to join the Association.”

“In the forthcoming days, Dexter will challenge the veteran half-step Martial Marquis, Mr. Brice Osborne!”

Upon seeing this news, the entire Martial Arts Forum was put in a state of shock!

“Dexter challenging Brice Osborne? Isn’t Brice already a household name for many years?”

“I heard Brice, in his prime, was so formidable that Ignacio Burke and Jackson Harris were left out of breath!”

“So Dexter’s already reached that level? Ethan Smith’s in danger.”

“Isn’t Ethan Smith already reduced to a cripple? He’s no longer worth mentioning.”

After seeing the discussion on the Martial Arts Forum, Ethan Smith didn’t utter a word.

“This Dexter sure is making waves lately,” Ethan Smith commented, touching his chin.

Although Ethan Smith now possessed the Venerable Fifth Mountain and Divine Dragon Power, nobody could guarantee that the Blair family wouldn’t have more powerful magical artifacts.

What’s more, Ethan himself wasn’t sure if he could put up a fight when facing a half-step Martial Marquis.

Just then, another piece of news caught his eye:

News from overseas disclose that the Halcroen Sect issued a death order against Ethan Smith, intending to send ten half-step Martial Marquis to execute him!
