Chapter 697: Chapter 697: 696: Public Execution of Davy Barnett!_1

Regarding this question, Davy Barnett merely shook his head.

“All these records are in the Capital City Martial Arts Association’s archives; I’ve never seen them.” Davy said.

“Archives…” Ethan Smith furrowed his brow slightly.

He looked at Davy and asked, “Are these archives in the Scripture Pavilion?”

“That’s right.” A touch of surprise flashed across Davy’s face.

Ethan rubbed his chin, saying, “I guess the archives must contain quite a lot of information, right?”

Bringing up this topic, Davy immediately spoke proudly, “Of course! Almost every event in the martial arts world is recorded in the archives!”

Ethan thought to himself, “I need to find a way to visit this Scripture Pavilion.”

“Last question,” Ethan looked at Davy.

Davy nodded, “Go ahead.”

Ethan rubbed his chin again and smiled, “There should be many venues belonging to the Capital City Martial Arts Association, right?”

“Yes, as the hall of the martial arts world, that’s natural.” Davy once again felt inexplicably prideful.

Ethan asked, “So… which venue has the most martial artists?”

Davy thought for a moment and said, “Naturally, it’s the Taoism Theory Library.”

“Taoism Theory Library?” Ethan seemed somewhat unfamiliar with the name.

Davy nodded, “That’s right. The Taoism Theory Library is a public library established by the Capital City Martial Arts Association. Many martial artists can come here to learn techniques.”

This surprised Ethan somewhat.

He never expected that the Capital City Martial Arts Association would even provide this kind of public urban resource.

“Taoism Theory Library… Are you sure this place has the most people?” Ethan asked again.

Davy scoffed, “Of course, from Grandmasters to Marquis, almost everyone has been to the Taoism Theory Library!”

Ethan nodded silently, “Okay, I got it.”

Having finished with his questions, Davy looked up at Ethan and said, “You can let me go now.”

Ethan raised his eyebrows and sneered, “Let you go? When have I ever said I would let you go?”

Davy’s face changed, and he said coldly, “Ethan Smith, are you going to break your promise?”

Ethan laughed heartily, “Keep my word? Why should I keep my word with someone like you?”

“Moreover, if I let you go, it would mean breaking the harsh words I said before when I let you go, isn’t that also breaking a promise?”

“You!” Davy’s face turned a ghastly white with anger!

His aura swiftly climbed, and he angrily slammed his fist into the cage!

But at that moment, Hadwin Webster raised his hand, easily restraining the cage.

All of Davy’s momentum dissolved just as easily.

“Do you know why I asked you which venue has the most people?” Ethan raised an eyebrow.

Davy’s face changed as if he realized something.

“What… What are you trying to do?” Davy asked anxiously.

Ethan laughed heartily, “You are the president of the association after all, your execution should be worthy of your status.”

Having tossed out that statement, Ethan drove towards the Taoism Theory Library.

Davy’s face went livid with rage, and he yelled, “Ethan Smith, you deceitful and despicable man! I will kill you!”

Ethan ignored Davy’s rant.

Humming a little tune, he headed for the Taoism Theory Library.

…

The Taoism Theory Library.

As the only welfare-based public resource of the Capital City Martial Arts Association, it naturally attracted countless martial artists.

Just as Davy said, from Marquis to Grandmasters, almost everyone could be seen here.

Although the techniques here were not considered top-notch, having the opportunity to learn techniques was already an incredible stroke of luck for those not affiliated with any organization.

The entire library was rather quiet, with everyone holding books and silently learning techniques.

At this moment, some commotion came from the front of the library.

Looking up, one could see a young man carrying a cage towards the front.

Inside the cage was an old man.

Seeing this scene, everyone turned to look.

And the library administrator roared, “Who are you, what do you want?”

Ethan glanced at him, then pointed at Davy in the cage and said, “Don’t you recognize him?”

“How would I recognize a beggar like that!” The administrator snorted.

Ethan burst into laughter upon hearing this.

“Get out of here now, or don’t blame me for being rude!” The administrator yelled.

Just then, someone recognized Ethan.

“That person is Ethan Smith!”

“The one in the cage… is Davy Barnett, the president of the Capital City Martial Arts Association?”

“Davy Barnett’s capture is real?”

Seeing this scene, many people took out their phones, wanting to capture this moment.

As the administrator heard these words, his face changed dramatically, and he quickly retreated.

For a moment, everyone’s eyes were on Ethan.

“Gosh, I never thought the president would actually be locked in a cage.”

“Davy Barnett looks quite pitiful.”

“Haha, he deserves it! When he imprisoned others, did he ever think about their feelings?”

“Ethan Smith is really admirable, even capturing the president of the Capital City Martial Arts Association.”

Facing everyone’s gaze, Davy’s face turned incredibly ugly.

He had been the center of attention since he was young, receiving respect from all martial artists and holding a prominent status.

But now he was trapped in a cage, being watched like a dog.

The huge gap between his past and present situation nearly broke Davy.

“Ethan Smith, let me out, and I can agree to any demand you have!” Davy gritted his teeth.

Ethan coldly glanced at Davy and said, “Don’t blame me. Blame the executives of your association; they’re the ones who abandoned you.”

After dropping this line, Ethan turned to the crowd.

He took a deep breath and said coldly, “I said that if the Capital City Martial Arts Association didn’t release Emily Taylor, I would kill their president.”

“Time is up, and I still haven’t seen Emily. According to the agreement, I will execute Davy publicly!”

“Ethan Smith, you’re insolent! Let go of our president right now!” Suddenly, someone in the library yelled.

Ethan coldly glanced at him and then waved his hand, immediately smashing his head!

“If anyone else dares to talk nonsense, I’ll kill them all,” Ethan said coldly.

The scene immediately fell into complete silence.

At this time, the old woman received a live video broadcast.

“This Ethan Smith…” The old woman clenched her teeth, her face even more unsightly.

She and Davy had an excellent relationship, and they even had a romantic involvement when they were young.

Now seeing Davy in such a miserable state, how could she not be enraged!

So, the old woman took out her phone and dialed a number.

“Go to the Taoism Theory Library right away and kill Ethan Smith!” The old woman said coldly.

Besides the old woman, members of all the great aristocratic families saw the video.
