Chapter 552: Chapter 552: 552: Occupying the Spiritual Spring!_1

The news of Ethan Smith’s founding of the sect spread quickly!

Although Ethan was not the sect master, everyone still considered him to be the real leader of Green Moon Villa.

Inside Green Moon Villa.

Ethan Smith, Polly Reeves and others gathered together, while the members of Green Moon Villa were already waiting here early on.

At a glance, there were surprisingly less than ten people in Green Moon Villa.

“Is this all the members?” Ethan asked.

Polly sighed and said, “It’s already good to have these many people.”

Ethan nodded slightly, and at this moment, he thought of Iceheart Lake.

“Patriarch Reeves, I have a question for you.” Ethan said.

“Can the gap beneath Iceheart Lake be opened by brute force?”

Although Polly was on guard, she still shook her head and said, “It can’t be opened.”

“Even if it’s a Martial Marquis?” Ethan asked.

Polly nodded and said, “Yes, even a Martial Marquis can’t open it.”

Seeing this, Ethan couldn’t help but take a sip of water.

In this case, Ethan was relieved.

In the afternoon.

Polly came to Ethan’s room.

She asked with some suspicion, “Mr. Smith, after you sent out the message on the Martial Arts Forum, how come nobody came?”

Ethan took a sip of tea and said with a faint smile, “Because I didn’t leave an address, so of course no one came.”

Polly was dumbfounded.

She frowned and said, “You didn’t leave an address? Then why did you send out the message.”

Ethan sneered, “I sent out this message to show it to the Great Saint Sect.”

“The Great Saint Sect?” Polly was even more puzzled.

Wasn’t this asking for trouble?

Ethan didn’t explain, he looked at his watch and whispered, “It’s almost time.”

“What time?” Polly asked in confusion.

Ethan looked at Polly and said, “Patriarch Reeves, gather everyone and let’s leave here.”

“Leave?” Polly was completely confused.

Ethan said solemnly, “If I’m not wrong, Joshua Hess should be on his way.”

“Joshua Hess? The sect master of the Great Saint Sect?” Polly exclaimed.

“Yes.” Ethan nodded slightly.

“You take everyone and leave Green Moon Villa immediately. As for when to come back, I will notify you.” Ethan said.

Polly frowned tightly, and she whispered, “But… I don’t want to leave here at all. My father told me that he said…”

“Don’t worry, nothing will happen to Green Moon Villa.” Ethan said.

“Their goal is just Iceheart Lake. Since brute force cannot open it, what do you have to worry about?”

“On the contrary, if you stay here, you will lose Iceheart Lake instead. Joshua Hess will definitely use inhuman means to force you to reveal the method to open the gap.” Ethan explained.

Polly suddenly realized the situation.

She hurriedly nodded and said, “Mr. Smith, you make sense. Then… where should we go?”

“Go anywhere, just don’t stay in Green City.” Ethan said solemnly.

“Time is running out, I won’t explain it to you anymore, hurry up and take action.”

Polly saw the situation and didn’t dare to say anything more, so she could only agree to it.

After making arrangements, Ethan left Green City.

“Joshua Hess, it’s time for you to pay the price.” Ethan said coldly.

The place Ethan was going was the Great Saint Sect!

Among the entire Great Saint Sect, Ethan only feared one person, and that was Joshua Hess.

As long as Joshua Hess left, the Great Saint Sect would be nothing!

And Ethan’s purpose for going to the Great Saint Sect this time was their Spiritual Spring!

It is said that the Great Saint Sect relied on the Spiritual Spring to establish the sect, and that the Spiritual Spring had been flowing for many years, becoming the lifeline of the Great Saint Sect.

Ethan planned to absorb the Spiritual Spring before Joshua Hess could react!

“If everything goes smoothly, I should be able to successfully enter the realm of the Military Marquis.” On the way to the Great Saint Sect, Ethan thought to himself.

It took nearly five hours for Ethan to finally arrive at the entrance of the Great Saint Sect.

“Spiritual Spring… here I come.” Ethan sneered.

He strode into the Great Saint Sect and headed straight for the Great Hall!

Ethan used the Shrinking Ground Into An Inch technique, and his speed was extremely fast.

None of the members of the Great Saint Sect doubted Ethan’s identity.

Because no one could have imagined that Ethan would actually do the opposite and take the initiative to go to the Great Saint Sect!

In the Great Hall.

Toby Bacchus was sitting in Joshua Hess’s position, silently sipping tea.

The feeling of being an acting sect master was extremely satisfying to him.

“Go, refill my tea.” Toby handed the teacup in his hand to the maid beside him.

The maid didn’t dare to say anything more, and quickly took the teacup to refill the water.

At this moment, someone suddenly walked into the Great Hall.

As soon as he entered, he directly closed the iron door of the Great Hall.

Seeing this, Toby couldn’t help but frown and said, “Who are you? What are you doing closing the door!”

Ethan raised his head and looked at the Toby in front of him.

“Entering here was even easier than I thought.” Ethan grinned.

When Toby saw Ethan’s face clearly, his face suddenly changed!

“Ethan… Ethan Smith!” Toby quickly stood up, his mouth opened to shout.

But Ethan was faster than him, and in the blink of an eye, he was in front of Toby.

He reached out and grabbed Toby’s neck, lifting him into mid-air.

Although Toby was also a half-step Martial Marquis, he had no power to fight back in front of Ethan.

His pupils were filled with fear, and his legs struggled constantly.

“If you don’t want to die, just shut up.” Ethan said coldly.

Toby quickly blinked his eyes to show his agreement.

Ethan let go of Toby, then directly sat in Joshua Hess’s seat.

“Ethan… Ethan Smith, what do… what do you want to do?” Toby asked in panic.

Ethan glanced at him and said, “Toby, it seems that you really enjoy being the sect master.”

Toby’s face changed, and he quickly shook his head, “Don’t talk nonsense! I am loyal to Lord Hess!”

“No need to worry,” Ethan waved his hand.

“If I can let you take Joshua Hess’s place, and become the next sect master, are you willing?” Ethan asked with a raised eyebrow.

A trace of greed flashed across Toby’s face.

Although it was fleeting, it couldn’t escape Ethan’s eyes.

“I don’t want to be any sect master, Lord Hess is our leader!” Toby said.

Ethan sneered and said, “But what if Joshua Hess dies?”

Toby was startled and hurriedly said, “Is Lord Hess dead?”

“Not yet, but soon.” Ethan said indifferently.

“As long as you cooperate with me, I promise to make you the next sect master, how about it?” Ethan said.

Hearing this, a strong greed flashed in Toby’s eyes!

Ethan couldn’t help but sneer in his heart.

Back then, Joshua Hess used this kind of method to break the Divine Alchemist Pavilion.

And now, Ethan was going to use the same method to destroy the Great Saint Sect!

“You… what do you want me to do?” Toby tried to ask.

Ethan said lightly, “Just take me to the Spiritual Spring of the Great Saint Sect and cover up my identity.”
