Chapter 557: Chapter 557: 557: Joshua Hess’s Attack!_1

Joshua Hess coldly scanned the crowd and slowly said, “The Great Saint Sect has never mobilized on such a large scale to suppress any other sect, nor has anyone ever dared to provoke the authority of the Great Saint Sect!”

“And all of this is because of Ethan Smith!”

With that, Joshua Hess slowly stood up.

He looked at everyone and said coldly, “Listen carefully, kill everyone you see when you get to the Green Moon Villa! The Great Saint Sect wants to tell the world the consequences of challenging us!”

“Yes!” Everyone shouted in unison.

…

Capital City Martial Arts Association had a prison specifically for detaining criminals.

These criminals were all very powerful, including some Marquises!

But now, there was an ordinary person with no cultivation detained here.

She was locked in a single cell, eating large amounts of meat and fish every day.

Not only that, there were even top-grade herbs in her meals.

Despite all this, her face remained extremely pale and she looked extremely frail!

The woman was none other than Emily Taylor!

“Miss Taylor, it’s time.”

A Marquis walked in from outside the door.

He was holding a syringe and approached Emily.

Emily’s pale face instantly flashed a hint of fear.

“Miss Taylor, please bear with it. Don’t worry, this won’t harm your life.” The Marquis chuckled.

Next, he saw the Marquis raise his palm, Emily’s body floated in mid-air, unable to move!

The Marquis then took the syringe and stabbed it harshly into Emily’s white neck!

Blood flowed out through the syringe.

Emily’s face turned even paler, and the pain on her face was indescribable.

“There we go, Miss Taylor.” After drawing blood, the Marquis released Emily.

Emily coldly looked at the Marquis and asked, “What are you trying to do?”

The Marquis laughed, “Miss Taylor, don’t worry. We just need your blood. As long as you cooperate obediently, we won’t harm you.”

“When will you let me go?” Emily asked coldly.

“That… is uncertain, hehe.” The Marquis left these words and walked out without paying any more attention to Emily.

No one could have imagined that the Capital City Martial Arts Association would treat Emily Taylor like this.

…

Green Moon Villa.

It was unusually lively today.

Polly Reeves sat in the Great Hall with her eyes filled with worry.

She couldn’t help but glance outside whenever there was any movement.

Not for any other reason, but because today was the day the Great Saint Sect came to suppress them.

“Why hasn’t Mr. Smith come out yet?” Polly’s worry grew.

Just then, one powerful aura after another approached the Green Moon Villa!

This terrifying aura was so strong that nearly everyone in the Green Moon Villa felt its oppressive force!

Polly stood up abruptly and quickly walked outside.

In no time at all, she saw more than ten people swaggering into the Green Moon Villa.

“Who…who are you?” Polly asked nervously.

“Joshua Hess.” The leading man said coldly.

Hearing the name Joshua Hess, everyone present turned pale with fear!

“Joshua…Joshua Hess, sect master of the Great Saint Sect!”

“They really came…”

Joshua Hess glanced at the crowd and said coldly, “Where is Ethan Smith?”

Polly forced herself to suppress the fear in her heart, took a deep breath, and said, “Lord Hess, Mr. Smith is out on business. May I ask what you need him for?”

“Not here?” Joshua Hess narrowed his eyes.

Afterward, he sneered, “If he were here, I would kill all of you!”

Upon hearing this, the scene turned chaotic!

Facing Joshua Hess, they had no means of fighting back!

“Wait!”

At this moment, Polly suddenly shouted.

She clenched her teeth and said, “Mr. Hess, I know your Great Saint Sect wants the Iceheart Lake, I… I can give it to you.”

Joshua Hess stroked his beard and sneered, “Once I kill all of you, the Iceheart Lake will belong to me anyway!”

After leaving this sentence, Joshua Hess ordered, “Attack, leave no one alive!”

“I can tell you where Ethan Smith is!”

Just then, someone in the crowd shouted.

Hearing this, Joshua Hess waved his hand.

He coldly questioned, “You know where Ethan Smith is?”

“Y-yes,” the trembling martial artist replied.

“Take me to him.” A ruthless glint appeared in Joshua Hess’s eyes.

The martial artist dared not say anything else and quickly led the way, “Please follow me…”

Polly stared intently at this scene, her eyes almost spitting fire, but she had no way to fight against Joshua Hess, so she could only let it happen.

Joshua Hess marched towards Ethan Smith’s residence with his men.

At this moment, Ethan Smith was trying to break through to the Marquis level.

He could clearly feel that his qi was enough to support him entering the Marquis realm.

However, he had failed each time he tried.

“Sigh,” Ethan let out a slight sigh.

They say that entering the Marquis realm requires an opportunity, and it seems to be true.” Ethan frowned.

Forced breakthroughs were too difficult.

Just then, the door was suddenly kicked open!

Afterward, Ethan noticed a strong murderous spirit blasting in!

Looking up, he saw Joshua Hess standing coldly at the entrance.

“Ethan Smith…” The moment he saw Ethan, Joshua Hess clenched his fist!

Joshua Hess had deep hatred for Ethan!

“Joshua Hess, you finally showed up.” Ethan slowly stood up from the ground.

Looking at Joshua Hess, there was a faint uneasiness in the depths of Ethan’s heart.

Not being able to break through to the Marquis realm was not good news for Ethan.

“If I really can’t, I can only try to use the secret technique to forcibly break through to the Marquis realm again,” Ethan muttered with furrowed brows.

“I want to see who can save you this time!” Joshua Hess said coldly.

Ethan Smith stood up and said, “Indeed, no one can save me, but killing me may not be so simple.”

“Is that so?” Joshua Hess exclaimed as his aura immediately erupted!

This terrifying aura sent the surrounding people flying!
