Mrs. and Mr. Smith

After trekking for several days, Ethan had finally found a place with qi!

So, he quickly headed towards the gap in the landscape.

“Who are you, and who allowed you to be here?”

At that moment, a fierce shout came from behind Ethan.

Turning around, he saw two men looking at him cautiously.

Ethan released his aura and discovered that these two were actually Grandmasters.

“Huh? There are Grandmasters here?” Ethan couldn’t help but feel surprised.

“Tell us who you are and who let you in!” the two men shouted again.

Their auras exploded, their faces full of frost, and they seemed ready to attack Ethan!

Ethan cupped his hands and politely said, “My name is Ethan Smith. I entered by accident and was attracted to the lake.”

“Ethan Smith?”

Upon hearing this name, the two men were taken aback.

They exchanged glances before hurriedly asking, “Are you the Ethan Smith who hurt Dexter Blair?”

Ethan couldn’t help but be surprised.

Had word spread so quickly?

“Yes, it was me,” Ethan nodded.

The two men immediately changed their attitude and respectfully said, “We’ve long heard of Mr. Smith’s fame, never thought we’d actually meet you in person!”

“Mr. Smith, you’re our idol! Fearless of the powerful and willing to fight to the death, we’ve always wanted to follow you!”

Ethan couldn’t help but feel embarrassed. He politely responded, “You both overpraise me.”

Pointing to the lake, Ethan continued, “By the way, where does the qi in this lake come from? Why is it sometimes strong and sometimes weak?”

Upon hearing this, the two men’s faces showed a hint of embarrassment.

They explained awkwardly, “Mr. Smith, it’s not that we don’t want to tell you, but… this is our secret, and we’re not allowed to share it with outsiders.”

“How about… I take you to meet our sect master?”

Ethan thought for a moment and nodded, “Alright, I’d appreciate that.”

Thus, Ethan followed the two men towards a building in the distance.

The two led Ethan directly to the twenty-seventh floor where they stopped at an office.

“Mr. Smith, this is our sect master’s office,” the two men said courteously.

Ethan slightly bowed as a gesture of gratitude.

Then, Ethan knocked on the door.

In no time, an icy female voice came from within, “Who is it?”

“Sect Master, someone’s here to see you,” the two Grandmasters hurriedly reported.

“Wait, I’m in a meeting right now, don’t you know?” the woman coldly replied.

The two Grandmasters looked embarrassed. One of them whispered, “Mr. Smith, please don’t mind. Our sect master has recently encountered some trouble and is quite irritable.”

“It’s fine,” Ethan replied with a smile.

Being a guest, Ethan naturally wouldn’t get angry.

After waiting for about half an hour at the door, it finally opened.

Four or five people then came out from inside.

What surprised Ethan was that these individuals were actually Peak Form of Grandmasters!

With this kind of power, they would definitely be top-tier existences in Green City!

“Come in.”

Following that, the woman’s voice could be heard.

Ethan immediately entered the office.

At first glance, he noticed an icily-faced woman sitting in front of the desk.

Her skin was fair, and she was quite attractive, yet there was a trace of worry between her brows.

“Who are you?” Upon seeing Ethan, the woman frowned.

Before Ethan could speak, the two men beside him hurriedly said, “Sect Master, this is the famous Ethan Smith!”

“Hello,” Ethan politely greeted.

However, the woman coldly scoffed, “In the past few days, there have been at least eight people claiming to be Ethan Smith, all of them frauds!”

Although there were many videos of Ethan, they were all taken during battle, and the powerful qi they contained made it difficult for the person filming to get close.

This resulted in it being impossible to see Ethan’s face in the videos, only catching a blurry figure.

Upon hearing this, Ethan was taken aback.

He asked in embarrassment, “People are impersonating me? What for?”

You really think you’re Ethan Smith?” The woman coldly replied.

“Who doesn’t know that Ethan Smith is at the Divine Alchemist Pavilion right now? Even if he’s not there, he should be in Capital City! There’s no way he’d come to our tiny Green City!” the woman said coldly.

Ethan helplessly explained, “I really am Ethan Smith. I just left the Divine Alchemist Pavilion, and the reason I came here is because of the lake outside.”

Just as the woman was about to speak, a man suddenly entered the room.

“Polly Reeves, Ethan Smith is here,” the man announced.

Polly Reeves couldn’t help laughing, “You hear that? Another Ethan Smith has arrived. Let him in.”

A playful glint appeared on Ethan’s face.

He found a place to sit and quietly waited for the arrival of the “Ethan Smith.”

Soon after, a handsome young man entered the room.

The man casually said, “Patriarch Reeves, I heard you’ve run into some troubles recently?”

Polly Reeves, expressionless, asked, “You’re Ethan Smith?”

“Indeed, I am Ethan Smith,” the man answered nonchalantly.

Polly Reeves scoffed, “Then why aren’t you at the Divine Alchemist Pavilion? What are you doing in Green City?”

The imposter chuckled and replied, “I heard that whoever helps Patriarch Reeves solve her troubles can get a billion dollars and spend a night of passion with her…”

Pausing for a moment, the imposter continued, “Of course, I just happened to be passing by in Green City and decided to lend a hand, not for any petty gains.”

Polly showed no emotion on her face, only coldly asking, “How do you prove you’re Ethan Smith?”

Without hesitation, the imposter’s body shook, and bursts of golden light exploded from his form!

Seeing the golden light, Ethan couldn’t help but be amazed.

That’s almost a solid imitation!

“Golden qi!” The onlookers were surprised to see this.

“When Ethan Smith fights, golden light always bursts forth! It seems he truly is Ethan Smith!”

Even a hint of surprise appeared on Polly Reeves’ face.

“Are you really Ethan Smith?” she asked, quickly standing up.

The imposter feigned annoyance, “I came to help you out of kindness, yet you doubt me? In that case, I’ll be leaving.”

After uttering those words, the imposter turned to leave.

Polly’s face changed, and she quickly stopped the imposter, saying politely, “I didn’t mean to offend. It’s just that there have been too many imposters lately. I hope Mr. Smith doesn’t mind…”

Only then did the imposter nod with satisfaction.

Subsequently, Polly turned to Ethan and coldly said, “You can leave now.”

Ethan couldn’t help but feel helpless, “Can’t you tell that this man is obviously a con artist and womanizer, and you still believe him?”

“Kid, what did you say?” Hearing Ethan’s words, the imposter’s face turned furious, and golden light arose from his body.
