Mrs. and Mr. Smith

“At this time… Clare must be asleep,” Ethan thought to himself.

It was midnight, and normally Ethan shouldn’t disturb her.

However, he had put too much effort into this matter, and now that it was about to be accomplished, Ethan decided to visit her anyway.

After getting off the plane, Ethan took a taxi and hurried to Clare’s house.

At this moment, the scene in Uncle William Richardson’s courtyard was very different from what Ethan had imagined.

There were three strange men in the yard, all of them emitting a strong aura.

This aura almost enveloped the entire house.

Clare and Uncle William stood facing the three men.

“Who are you!” Uncle William shouted angrily.

The three men were silent, just staring coldly at Clare.

Uncle William yelled loudly, “If you don’t leave, I’ll call the police!”

Finally, the three men spoke.

They quietly looked at Clare and said, “We are from the Ice Palace. We are not here to hurt anyone, just to take something.”

Uncle William frowned, “Ice Palace? What the hell? I’ve never heard of it before. Get the hell out of here!”

The three men ignored Uncle William’s yelling and kept their eyes on Clare.

Clare’s face was very ugly, and she knew very well that these three men must be here for the mask!

Although Ethan had told her not to let anyone know about the mask, the young Clare couldn’t help but tell her best friend.

“What… what do you want?” Clare tried to ask.

“You should know,” the three men said coldly.

Clare gritted her teeth and said, “I don’t know what you’re talking about. I don’t have what you want.”

“Little girl, we don’t want to use force, but don’t push us,” said one of the men coldly.

Clare clenched her teeth, suppressing her fear, and took a step forward, her aura erupting at that moment!

To everyone’s surprise, Clare had now entered the Grandmaster Realm!

This speed was astonishing!

Feeling Clare’s aura, Uncle William couldn’t help but look amazed.

When had his daughter become so powerful?

“Little girl, do you want to fight us?” one of the men asked coldly.

“You should know that you are no match for us. Just hand over the item, and we will not hurt you.”

Clare stubbornly said, “No way!”

The three men narrowed their eyes and their faces turned cold.

“Toasts ignored will be paid in penalties,” said one of the men coldly.

His aura also erupted at that moment!

The terrifying aura sent Uncle William flying!

These three men were actually at the Military Marquis Realm!

“I’m not afraid of you!” Clare yelled and charged forward with clenched fists!

However, the gap in power between the two sides was too great. Clare had no chance against a Military Marquis!

The black-robed man raised his palm and directly sent Clare flying!

Seeing Clare fall to the ground, Uncle William panicked.

He grabbed a stick from the side and rushed over!

But as an ordinary person, Uncle William had no combat power. His stick didn’t even touch the black-robed man before he was sent flying!

Uncle William fell to the ground, unconscious.

“Dad!” Clare cried out in panic.

She rushed to Uncle William and said anxiously, “Dad, you…wake up!”

“Little girl, hand over the item, and I promise you’ll be safe. Don’t make things difficult for yourself,” the three men warned again.

Clare got up from the ground, biting her silver teeth, and said, “You wish! I’d rather die than give it to you!”

“Ignorant of death!” The three men were completely enraged!

They strode forward, reaching out their hands, and a hand like a withered claw shot directly towards Clare!

In the face of these three men, Clare had no power to fight back, and all her cultivation seemed worthless!

Just then, a golden fist emerged!

The fist directly met the palm, creating a loud sound!

“Boom!”

The loud noise sent the black-robed man back three steps!

“Clare, are you okay?” Ethan asked.

Clare shook her head, and anxiously said, “Ethan, save my dad, he…”

“Don’t worry, Uncle William will be okay,” Ethan reassured.

He walked to Uncle William, bent down.

Then he injected a trace of qi into Uncle William’s body, and soon Uncle William slowly awakened.

“Ethan, what…what’s going on!” Seeing Ethan, Uncle William said anxiously.

Ethan smiled and said, “Uncle William, it’s okay. You go back to your room first, leave this to me.”

Uncle William nodded worriedly and instructed, “Ethan, be careful.”

Ethan nodded, and then got up and looked at the three black-robed men.

“It seems the news has leaked,” Ethan said coldly.

The men said squinting, “Ethan Smith, we only came for the mask, we do not wish to be your enemy.”

Ethan sneered, “You come to steal things and say you don’t want to be my enemy? What, should I thank you?”

“Ethan Smith, I know you’re somewhat famous, and your strength isn’t weak. But I advise you not to meddle in things, otherwise, you’ll bring disaster upon yourself!” the three men said coldly.

“Then come and try,” Ethan said coldly.

He strode forward, his aura erupting at that moment!

The three men exchanged glances and immediately retreated a step!

Obviously, they didn’t want to fight Ethan!

“Quick fight, quick decision, we shouldn’t stay here for long,” one of the black-robed men said coldly.

The three men exchanged glances and nodded.

They reached out with their hands and, in the palms of their hands, a cold, blue light appeared simultaneously.

This light was extremely cold and eerie, making even Ethan frown.

“Hum!”

With a flash of light, the men’s palms pressed forward!

The three blue light streams turned into a rain of light, crackling and stabbing directly into Ethan’s body!

Ethan let out a loud shout, and his body immediately glowed with golden light! His strong physical body was ready to withstand the light!

“Puff puff puff!”

However, to Ethan’s surprise, these light beams, like rain, directly penetrated Ethan’s skin and entered his body!

“What is this stuff?” Seeing this, Ethan frowned deeply.

The men were silent, but they stood not far away, whispering as if reciting some kind of technique.

For an instant, Ethan felt something was wrong with his body!

He felt as though his meridians were blocked, unable to flow!

The next second, Ethan’s body softened, and he fell to the ground!
