Hearing Guy Nobleâs words, Ethan Smith quickly nodded and said, âGot it!â
After that, the two of them left in a huff.
Ethan never expected that Ms. Hayward would suddenly offer divine help!
Originally, Ethan had lost all hope, but Ms. Hayward jumped in to lend him a hand!
Getting in Guy Nobleâs car, the two rushed to the Noble Family residence.
It was already night time, but Pat Noble hadnât gone to bed yet.
He was fishing by his pond, looking somewhat like an immortal figure.
Guy Noble hurriedly ran to Pat Nobleâs side and gasped, âDad, something has happened!â
Pat Noble glanced at him and said, âWhat happened? Donât make a fuss.ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âDad, I was just insulted at the Island Banquet,â Guy Noble said angrily.
âHe said our Downton City is just a fart-sized place, and that weâre just some small aristocratic family whoâs never seen the real world!â
Hearing this, Pat Nobleâs face indeed looked a bit unsightly.
Guy Noble continued, âHe even said weâre from a remote mountain village and called us tigers!â
âItâs monkeys,â Ethan reminded from the side.
âRight, he called us monkeys!â Guy Noble said through gritted teeth.
After these insults, Pat Nobleâs face was indeed very ugly, almost black.
Father and son were of the same character, both liking to be flattered. As long as they were praised, they would consider the person a friend.
âEthan, you go out first.â Pat Noble tried to suppress his anger as he spoke in a refined manner.
Ethan nodded and said, âAlright.â
âAhh!!! Damn it, how dare he insult the Noble Family! Heâs dead!!!â
As soon as Ethan stepped out, he heard Pat Nobleâs angry roar from behind him!
Ethan couldnât help but click his tongue in secret.
Prideful people like the Noble father and son were quite rare.
About ten minutes later.
Guy Noble walked out of the room.
With a gloomy face, he said, âEthan, my father said that youâll serve as a guest official for the Noble Family for twenty years.â
âNo problem!â Ethan agreed without hesitation.
Guy Noble continued, âIn four days, Iâll personally bring someone to help you.â
Ethan was overjoyed and quickly bowed his hand, âThank you, Mr. Noble!â
Guy Noble waved his hand and snorted, âI want to show that Ms. Hayward what the Noble Family is really like- weâre not monkeys!â
âRight! Teach them a lesson!â Ethan clenched his fists and said.
â¦
After returning home, Ethan lay on the sofa and let out a long sigh of relief.
âFinally, itâs settled.â Ethan muttered to himself.
At this moment, Eight-Character Beard approached him and said, âEthan, I observed the omens last night and found out about a significant event!â
Ethan looked at him and asked, âWhat big event?â
Eight-Character Beard said solemnly, âSomething big is going to happen soon.â
âA big event? What big event?â Ethan asked, puzzled.
Eight-Character Beard shook his head and said, âIâm not sure, but itâs definitely a big event, and itâs not a good one.â
âNot a good thing?â This left Ethan somewhat confused.
From Eight-Character Beardâs serious expression, it didnât seem like he was joking.
But as for what exactly was the bad event, Eight-Character Beard wasnât sure either.
Ethan didnât think too much about it; for him, the most important thing right now was to get that medicinal herb.
â¦
Meanwhile, within the Immortal Slaying Sect.
An icy atmosphere surrounded the entire sect.Amidst the broken walls and ruins, a man suddenly appeared.
The man had a cold face, a tall stature, and a pair of extremely deep eyes.
âThe seal⦠Itâs actually been broken.â The man took a deep breath, and in an instant, his pupils were filled with darkness!
Afterward, the man raised both hands and recited words under his breath.
For an instant, the Immortal Slaying Sect shook violently, rumbling continuously!
One coffin after another emerged from beneath the ground!
These coffins broke through the ground, appearing before the man!
âItâs a pity that we couldnât preserve Sect Lordâs body.â The man said quietly, his eyes seemingly filled with a hint of regret.
âHowever⦠with these seven people alone, we should be able to sweep through the world.â Then, the manâs mouth curled into a cold smile.
â¦
Time flew by quickly.
Three days passed in the blink of an eye.
Only one day remained before the emergence of the ten-thousand-year-old medicinal materials.
On this day, the surrounding atmosphere became somewhat eerie.
Although everything seemed calm on the surface, there was an undercurrent flowing beneath.
Many top martial artists from the Pyro and even from abroad had come to the vicinity, waiting for the ten-thousand-year-old herbs to appear.
Ethan Smith released his divine sense, covering a radius of dozens of miles.
Soon, he felt several powerful auras.
âThere must be at least twenty or thirty Marquises here.â Ethan Smith frowned.
âI feel it too.â Clare Richardson suddenly interjected.
Ethan Smith looked at Clare Richardson, surprised, and said, âYour divine sense is actually so sharp? Did you specifically practice it?â
âNo, I donât know why, but⦠my divine sense power seems to be changing every day.â Clare Richardson shook her head.
Ethan Smith remained silent, but he was somewhat worried in his heart.
What he feared was not the masked woman, but that the masked woman and Clare Richardson were not the same person but had just borrowed Clareâs body for her resurrection.
If that were the case, it would be troublesome.
âI have to find time to visit the Scripture Pavilion as soon as possible.â Ethan Smith thought to himself.
At nightfall.
Ethan Smith was tossing and turning, unable to sleep.
He stood by the window, gazing at the scenery outside.
âTomorrow is the day the Divine Medicine will appear, and yet itâs so calm here.â Ethan Smith furrowed his eyebrows.
Under normal circumstances, the emergence of ten-thousand-year medicinal materials would certainly cause a vision to appear between heaven and earth.
âMaybe this is the calm before the storm.â Ethan Smith shook his head.
He turned back and entered the room, took out his phone.
At this time, the Martial Arts Forum was incredibly lively, with no one discussing the ten-thousand-year medicinal materials. Almost everyone was discussing the great battle between Jackson Harris and the Heaven Swallowing Python.
âAfter three days of continuous fighting, Jackson Harris successfully triumphs!â
A striking news headline caught his eye!
âAs expected of Senior Jackson Harris.â Ethan Smith was still a bit surprised.
It was important to know that both the Heaven Swallowing Python and Jackson Harris were at the Peak Form of Military Marquis Realm! It was difficult to defeat a demonic beast in the same realm! And even more so, nearly impossible to defeat an Earth-Rank Demonic Beast!
Ethan Smith scrolled through the Martial Arts Forum, almost everyone was discussing this matter.
This couldnât help but make Ethan Smith suspect that Ms. Hayward might have deliberately used this method to attract everyoneâs attention, so as not to have the ten-thousand-year-old medicinal materials snatched away.
The sky gradually brightened, turning the color of a fishâs belly.
And the atmosphere in the surrounding area became even more bizarre.
Although everyone was concealing their auras, there was still an oppressive force condensed throughout the area.
âToday is the day the ten-thousand-year medicinal materials will appear.â Ethan Smith took a deep breath and immediately released his divine sense, covering the surroundings.
