Mrs. and Mr. Smith

Chapter 945: Chapter 945: Great War with the Martial Saint!

Ethan Smith glanced at him and said, “Or what?”

Hanley Poe’s face held a trace of tension, he sheepishly smiled, “I have procured some fine tea leaves, perhaps… would you like to try some?”

“No need, I have matters to attend to.” Ethan Smith waved his hand dismissively.

Mallory Poe, who was standing by, also chided, “Enough, don’t waste Mr. Smith’s time.”

However, Hanley Poe was still somewhat reluctant, he continued sheepishly smiling, “Please do have some, I spent quite a sum of money on these tea leaves…”

Ethan Smith narrowed his eyes slightly and said, “Hanley Poe, you’re acting rather strange today.”

Hanley Poe’s face instantly became even more flustered, he hastily waved his hands and said, “No…not at all Mr. Smith, you’re overthinking it.”

However, Ethan Smith felt a sense of unease.

It was not wise to stay here longer.

Thinking so, Ethan Smith disregarded Hanley, turned around and swiftly strode out.

Hanley Poe’s complexion grew even more sullen.

He had already informed Marc Fraley, if he let Ethan Smith escape, Marc Fraley would surely hold it against him.

“Damn it!” Hanley Poe couldn’t help but mutter a curse, he gritted his teeth and decided to stealthily follow Ethan Smith.

After stepping out of the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets, Ethan Smith planned to leave immediately.

He pulled his hat closely, just as he was about to make a move, he noticed Marc Fraley and his team approaching from afar.

Ethan Smith hurriedly pulled his hat down further as he attempted to quicken his pace to leave.

However at that moment, Marc Fraley blocked Ethan Smith’s path of escape.

Ethan Smith furrowed his eyebrows, pretending to be calm he asked, “What do you want?”

Marc Fraley roared with laughter, “Ethan Smith, stop pretending, you think wearing a hat would prevent me from recognizing you?”

Before even finishing his sentence, a Martial Saint behind Marc Fraley swiftly reached out his hand, blocking off their surroundings in the process.

Ethan Smith’s face changed drastically! He took a deep breath and said, “I have no idea what you’re talking about.”

“Oh? Still pretending?” Marc Fraley sneered.

“That magical artifact you’re wearing on your head, it’s called Thousand Faces, isn’t it?”

Upon hearing this, Ethan Smith’s expression turned even more icy.

Clearly, it was impossible to play dumb today.

Consequently, Ethan Smith took off his hat, gave Marc Fraley a cold look and said,

“Ethan Smith, it was quite the ordeal to find you.” Marc Fraley coldly stated.

Ethan Smith responded, his voice frosty, “It was Hanley Poe who informed you, wasn’t it?”

“Ha ha, does that have anything to do with you?” Marc Fraley coolly responded.

“You won’t be able to make a run for it today, even the Heavenly King wouldn’t be able to save you!”

Realizing that the situation was grim, Ethan Smith took a deep breath and coldly laughed, “Funny thing is, I’ve been really wanting to fight with a Martial Saint, to see just how powerful a Martial Saint really is.”

“Oh? Ha ha ha ha ha!” Upon hearing this, Marc Fraley couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

“You’re nothing more than a Half-step Martial Sage, yet you aspire to slaughter a Martial Saint?”

Ethan Smith sarcastically remarked, “That’s uncertain.”

After his period of training with the Crane, Ethan Smith’s cultivation level may have not advanced, but his spe`ed and power had tremendously improved.

Moreover, with the Character fighting technique, even when dealing with a Martial Saint, Ethan Smith wouldn’t be too badly defeated!

Ethan Smith gazed at the three behind him and curtly stated, “Enough with the idle talk, let’s get down to action.”

“Uncle Star, capture him now!” Marc Fraley yelled.

However, Star was extremely unwilling and remained unmoved.

Seeing this, Marc Fraley couldn’t help but curse inwardly.

He had no choice but to look towards another Martial Saint and said, “Christopher Morales, capture him.”

“Yes, young master Fraley.” The man referred to as Christopher Morales took one step forward and gave Ethan Smith a cold look.

The strong oppressive aura immediately surged forth.

The gap between Martial Saints and Marquis was immense. Merely with this innate oppressive aura, one would find it unbearable.

This suppression was akin to one’s bloodline being restrained, making one feel extremely uncomfortable.

Even the movement of spiritual power within the body had slowed down considerably.

“You’ve run for far too long, it’s time to pay the price.” Christopher Morales stated coldly.

“Bring retribution? What punishment?” Ethan Smith scoffed.

“Enough bantering, let’s fight and see just how capable you, a Martial Saint, really are!” Ethan Smith roared.

Christopher Morales squinted and said, “Fine, I’ll let you witness the meaning of ‘All are ants beneath Martial Saints’.”

Once he finished speaking, Christopher Morales lifted his palm and suppressed towards Ethan Smith!

Waves of pressure, like towering mountains, rolled towards Ethan Smith!

Ethan Smith did not dare to be negligent, he deeply knew that against a Martial Saint, a slightest slip could cost him his life.

Therefore, Ethan Smith instantly unleashed the Divine Dragon Power, all sorts of techniques burst forth!

Golden Light enveloped Ethan Smith’s body, an overwhelming power surged throughout his body!

“Ah!”

With a roar, Ethan Smith used the Absolute Beginning Sacred Fist, a brilliant light immediately obstructed everyone’s vision in the blink of an eye!

“Boom!”

Ethan Smith’s fist and the gigantic palm collided, a earth-shattering sound reverberated!

The surrounding people turned to look in astonishment!

They saw the gigantic palm was actually shattered under Ethan Smith’s fist!

This left everyone with eyes agape in shock!

It is important to note that what Ethan Smith was facing was a genuine Martial Saint!

Since ancient times, there had never been any Martial Marquis who could contend with a Martial Saint!

One could even say that a Martial Saint killing a Martial Marquis was as simple as squashing an ant!

But now, Ethan Smith’s punch had actually shattered Christopher Morales’ palm, how could anyone believe that!

Even Star’s eyes revealed a hint of shock!

“This lad’s innate talent, it seems even Jackson Harris is not his match.” Star internally commented.

Christopher Morales’s face was extremely somber.

Being a Martial Saint, having his techniques disrupted by a Martial Marquis was an absolute disgrace.

“Kid, you have successfully enraged me.” Christopher Morales coldly stated, his hands folded behind his back.

Ethan Smith sneered, “I thought you, a Martial Saint, were something special. Now it seems, you’re just average.”

“You’re courting death!”

Christopher Morales immediately flew into a rage!

His figure flashed and he appeared in front of Ethan Smith in the blink of an eye!

Such extreme speed, it was even difficult to capture!

Nevertheless, such terrifying speed was actually dodged by Ethan Smith!

With a quick shift, he easily evaded Christopher Morales’s punch!

“Hmm?” Christopher Morales’s eyebrows furrowed even more tightly!

How could this lad’s speed be so fast?

“Ha ha ha ha!” Ethan Smith couldn’t help but burst into loud laughter.

“A Martial Saint right! So what! ”

Even though Christopher Morales was fast, compared to Crane, he was nothing!

Ethan Smith was able to dodge Crane’s attacks, let alone his, Christopher Morales’!

“You’re courting death!” Christopher Morales immediately flew into a rage! He once again moved towards Ethan Smith!
