Watching the content of the video, Kylan Taylorâs expression was slightly unnatural.
âMr. Taylor, Ethan Smith is already out of our control,â said the Military Adviser from the side.
Kylan Taylor took a puff of his cigar and coldly huffed, âHis progress is indeed faster than I imagined.â
âItâs not just his progress.â The Military Adviser shook his head.
âWhatâs most important is that he, in his Grandmaster Realm, defeated a half-step Martial Marquis.â
Kylan Taylor remained silent.
He himself is also a martial artist, so he knew what the gap between the peak of the Grandmaster Realm and the half-step Martial Marquis meant.
âIf we let this young man step into the half-step Martial Marquis Realm, the consequences would be unimaginable,â said the Military Adviser with a sigh.
Kylan Taylor glanced at the Military Adviser and huffed, âSo what if he has talent in martial arts? Heâs just a lowly martial artist.â
âIn this era, power is not established by martial arts alone, I can play him like a puppet with just a flick of my finger!â
This is the confidence of capital, in this era, no matter how skilled you are, itâs hard to contend with capital.
The Military Adviser gave a sigh and said, âMr. Taylor, I wonât deny your thoughts, but for now Ethan Smith does not pose a threat to the position of the Taylor Family.â
âBut have you thought about what if he steps into the half-step Martial Marquis Realm? Or rather, if he steps into the realm of the Military Marquis, who in this world could harm him?â
Kylan Taylor laughed, âDidnât you understand what I said? In this era, a lowly martial artist canât make any waves!â
The Military Adviser was silent for a moment before saying, âIf he does enter the half-step Martial Marquis Realm, heâll attract the attention of the battle zone.â
âIf the battle zone grants him an official position, making him a high-ranking frontier officer, the Taylor Family will have to think twice before messing with him.â
Kylan Taylor didnât say anything.
Just as the military adviser had said, if Ethan Smith truly got involved with the authorities, it wonât be as easy to make a move against him.
âDo you have any good ideas?â Kylan Taylor glanced at the Military Adviser and asked.
The Military Adviser replied, âMiss Taylorâs wedding is approaching. Itâs too late to take any action now, so why not just let things take their course.â
Hearing this, Kylan Taylorâs brows slightly furrowed.
The military adviser continued, âIf Ethan Smith does show up at the wedding, under any circumstances⦠he cannot leave the Capital City!â
âOf course, if Mr. Blair could kill Ethan Smith on the spot, that would be the best.â
Then the military adviser suddenly mentioned, âMr. Taylor, I think your son could potentially be unafraid of Ethan Smith.â
Naturally, by âsonâ, he was referring to Kylan Taylorâs son, Dominic Taylor.
Who currently topped the charts of the youth generation in Pyro!
However, Kylan Taylor shook his head, âMy son has always been indifferent to the worldâs disputes, heâs unwilling to participate in these kind of fights.â
The military adviser couldnât help but smile bitterly, with the incident of Zaria Buchanan getting slapped by Ethan Smith last time, Dominic Taylor didnât voice out a single word, let alone engage in this kind of struggle.
Kylan Taylor waved his hand, âGo tell Reilly Blair to have his son thoroughly prepared. Regardless of the circumstances, Ethan Smith must die on September 9th!â
âYes, Mr. Taylor,â the Military Adviser nodded.
Aside from this, both the Blair and Taylor families began to make arrangements secretly to prevent any unexpected incidents.
Ever since Ethan Smith defeated Dudley Lynch at the Grandmaster Realm, Ethan Smithâs name had been thoroughly spread around.
Small and major aristocratic families and sects learned that a genius had emerged from Chuzzle who defeated a half-step Martial Marquis at the Grandmaster Realm.
Even the Martial Arts Forum was speculating on Ethan Smithâs strength once he stepped into the half-step Martial Marquis Realm!
In the end, everyone reached a consensus:
Once Ethan Smith steps into the half-step Martial Marquis Realm, he will be unstoppable!
At this time, Ethan Smith was sitting in the living room.
In front of him lay a woman with an utterly perfect figure.
âMaster, whatâs happened to Miss Norton?â Edward Green asked from the side.
Ethan Smith shook his head, saying, âIâm not sure.â
Sofia Carrillo stepped forward, attempting to check on Evelyn Norton, but in the end, she too shook her head.
âSofia, leave Evelyn Norton in your care for now,â Ethan Smith told Sofia Carrillo.
Sofia nodded and replied, âMaster Smith, I understand.â
âMr. Smith, where are you going?â Edward Green murmured.
Ethan Smith uttered two words: âCultivation.â
With barely over a month left until September 9th, Ethan Smith had to enter the half-step Martial Marquis Realm before then.
Moreoverâ¦there was also the ticking time bomb of the Halcroen Sect. Their ten half-step Martial Marquis could strike at any moment.
If Ethan Smith continued to stay in Chuzzle, he would certainly face trouble.
âI may need to be away for a while. As for exactly when I will return, I also donât know,â Ethan Smith looked towards Sofia Carrillo and Edward Green.
âIf anything happens, you can look for Conrad Schroeder, or go back to the Divine Alchemist Pavilion.â
Seeing Ethan Smithâs serious expression, both of them didnât dare to prod further, but just kept nodding their heads like pecking chicks.
For the following time, Ethan Smith had to do all he possibly could to hit the half-step Martial Marquis Realm!
At that moment, Ethan Smithâs realm was already sufficient. If he could amass enough qi or dark energy, reaching the half-step Martial Marquis wouldnât be an issue.
After mulling it over, Ethan Smith decided to head to Dolan for the time being.
The Hydrating Tower held great strategic significance, and besides⦠there were definitely secrets hidden within the Hydrating Tower!
A mere tower would be absolutely impossible to possess effects similar to that of the Enlightenment Tea.
Last time, due to pressing time, Ethan Smith hadnât been able to uncover the secrets in the Hydrating Tower. This time, no matter what, he had to uncover what exactly the Hydrating Tower was hiding.
Honua, Cango City.
Although it was near the Capital City, the landscapes were vastly different.
And in a secluded plain in Cango City, a giant sect was situated.
Calling it a sect, in fact, it worked in the same way a company does.
Not only did it have towering skyscrapers, but it also owned vast land area.
This was the Great Saint Sect, the largest sect in the north, bankrolled by the Taylor Family of the Capital City.
Inside the sect, a young man was kneeling on the ground.
In front of him, on a massive chair crafted from yellow pear wood, an old man in a suit was drinking tea.
âDudley Lynch, hailed as the âNumber One Person of Central Plainsâ,â the old man said indifferently.
âI remember the Great Saint Sect once issued you an invitation, but it was rejected. Now, youâve lost to Ethan Smith, and are thinking of seeking refuge with our Great Saint Sect?â
Dudley Lynch stood up, shook his head, and said, âElder Foster, youâve misunderstood. Iâm here this time to help your Great Saint Sect.â
Upon hearing this, a trace of displeasure flashed across Elder Fosterâs face.
âHelp our Great Saint Sect? Dudley Lynch, youâre overestimating yourself a bit,â Elder Foster said coldly.
Dudley Lynch wasnât in a hurry. He chuckled lightly, saying, âI have a Dharma Treasure that allows one to increase their cultivation in a short period of time.â
âBoth Ethan Smith and I have relied on this Dharma Treasure to reach this realm within such a short time.â
âElder Foster, you should be clearer than me what this Dharma Treasure means to the Great Saint Sect.â
