Mrs. and Mr. Smith

He stared and said, “How come you’re like a ghost, making no sound at all!”

Ethan Smith rolled his eyes, “You were just too absorbed in what you were looking at. I really don’t understand, what’s so terrifying about this coffin?”

The man with the mustache impatiently waved his hand, “She… forget it, I can’t explain it to you. Where’s the stuff?”

Ethan Smith didn’t waste any words. He immediately activated the Spatial Magic Artifact and released all the objects he had snatched from the auction.

Thirty treasures were neatly arranged here.

The worldly antiques were directly discarded by the man with the mustache.

His eyes quickly locked onto a sword and excitedly grabbed it.

“It’s this one!” the man with the mustache excitedly said.

He held the sword, dancing with excitement, his eyes sparkling with brilliance.

Ethan Smith muttered, “This sword looks ordinary and doesn’t seem like a treasure. Why are you so excited?”

While stroking the sword, the man with the mustache excitedly said, “Indeed, this sword doesn’t amount to much, or else the Capital City Martial Arts Association wouldn’t have let it go.”

Upon saying this, the man with the mustache paused for a moment.

He put away the sword, then said with a faint smile, “But in my hands, it’s different.”

“What do you mean?” Ethan Smith asked, puzzled.

The man with the mustache rubbed his chin, thought for a while, and then said, “Never mind, I’ll tell you.”

“There are four of these swords in total, called the Four Swords of Immortality, the weapon of a great figure.”

“As for who that great figure is, you wouldn’t know even if I told you. In any case, it’s a powerful figure from many years ago.”

Hearing the man’s words, Ethan Smith became even more curious about him.

This man with the mustache seemed to know everything, and he knew a lot about events from many years ago.

“A great figure…” Ethan Smith pondered for a moment.

Then he looked at the man with the mustache and asked, “Who is more powerful, the owner of these Four Swords of Immortality or that masked woman?”

Upon mentioning the masked woman, the man with the mustache’s expression became a bit unpleasant.

He impatiently said, “How would I know? They’d have to fight each other first.”

Seeing this, Ethan Smith didn’t ask any more questions but said seriously, “I’ve given you the items. You should tell me how to control these two male corpses.”

The man with the mustache grinned and said, “Of course I can tell you, but only I can control the corpses!”

Ethan Smith was stunned and said unhappily, “What do you mean? Are you trying to go back on your word?”

“No, no, no, I have no intention of going back on my word!” the man with the mustache hurriedly waved his hands.

“What I’m saying is true. Only I can perform this technique.”

“As long as you get the mask, I have a way to make these two male corpses come alive!”

Upon saying this, the man with the mustache chuckled and added, “You see, it’s not that I don’t want to help you, but the mask is not with me.”

Ethan Smith’s brow furrowed, and he couldn’t make up his mind for a moment.

Although he had gotten to know the man with the mustache quite well during this time, Ethan Smith did not know anything about his background.

No one knew whether he was trustworthy or not.

If he turned out to be a bad person, Clare Richardson would definitely be in danger.

“I can get the mask,” Ethan Smith said coldly.

The man with the mustache waved his hands, “Alright, don’t brag. I’ve been looking for that mask for many years and haven’t found it.”

Ethan Smith said solemnly, “I can really find the mask, but I’m sorry, I can’t give it to you.”

Seeing Ethan Smith’s serious face, the man with the mustache’s expression also changed slightly.

“You… are you serious?” There was no more trace of joking in the man’s words.

Ethan Smith nodded, “Yes, but as I said, I won’t give it to you.”

The man with the mustache frowned, “The mask is a sacred object. If you really know where it is, I’ll be satisfied just to see it.”

“Really?” Ethan Smith asked.

“Really.” The man with the mustache nodded.

Despite his words, Ethan Smith still felt uneasy.

After much deliberation, Ethan Smith looked at the man with the mustache and said, “Give me one night to think about it.”

The man with the mustache rubbed his chin and said, “Don’t you trust me? I did save your life.”

“The matter isn’t mine, so I need to think it over seriously,” Ethan Smith said.

“I’ll give you an answer tomorrow morning,”.

Seeing this, the man with the mustache could only spread his hands and say, “Fine, I won’t force you.”

Ethan Smith grunted in agreement, then stopped talking.

He picked up the treasures on the ground and walked into the inner room.

By this time, the Capital City Martial Arts Association had already exploded with chaos.

The incident had a huge impact on the Capital City Martial Arts Association! It was like slapping them in the face in front of everyone!

“The most important thing right now is to catch that black-robed man!” At the meeting, Davy Barnett gritted his teeth and said.

“Yes, as long as we catch the black-robed man, we can at least explain ourselves,” the assistant agreed.

“I’m afraid it won’t be long before the higher-ups will come to hold us accountable,” Davy Barnett sighed, his face showing a trace of worry.

Sure enough, at that moment, a man in a traditional Chinese suit walked in.

Seeing him, everyone at the Capital City Martial Arts Association simultaneously stood up.

“Jagger Shah, you… why are you here…” Davy Barnett said with a somewhat ugly expression.

Jagger Shah said coldly, “What kind of work is the Capital City Martial Arts Association doing that you can’t even ensure proper security measures?”

Trying to justify himself, Davy Barnett said, “This… this is just a misunderstanding…”

“Misunderstanding?” Jagger Shah slammed his hand on the table.

“So many people died or were injured this time, and you call that a misunderstanding?”

“Your Capital City Martial Arts Association claims to be the official organization of the martial arts world. Is this the result of your work?”

Davy Barnett opened his mouth to explain, but Jagger Shah simply didn’t give him the chance.

“This incident has impacted many ordinary people. You’d better give me a reasonable explanation,” Jagger Shah said coldly.

“Otherwise, your Capital City Martial Arts Association should seriously consider its future.”

After dropping these words, Jagger Shah turned and left.

Although it was only a brief exchange, Davy Barnett and the others were sweating profusely.

“It’s all because of that black-robed man…” Davy Barnett’s body emitted a killing aura that quickly enveloped the entire room.

Emerson Holmes quickly said, “President Barnett, let’s proceed with my plan to eliminate the black-robed man as soon as possible.”

Davy Barnett glanced at Emerson Holmes and said, “Alright, I’ll leave this matter to you. I’ll give you the authority to mobilize the black and gold robe.”

“Ah? Me?” Emerson Holmes’ face immediately turned ugly.

If he were to take action, wouldn’t it let Ethan Smith know that he was the one scheming?

“What’s the matter? Any problems?” Davy Barnett asked coldly.

Emerson Holmes gritted his teeth, and his mind raced.

“No problem!” Emerson Holmes reluctantly accepted.

“As long as Ethan Smith dies, what does it matter if he knows!” Emerson Holmes said coldly in his heart.
