âWeâve taken sufficient measures already.â A high-level executive sounded somewhat sarcastic.
âEmerson Holmes, what do you think?â Someone asked suddenly.
An unnatural expression flashed across Emerson Holmesâ face.
âGiven my current capabilities, Iâm no match for Ethan Smith, let alone⦠Ms. Hayward is the real power holder, I canât do much,â Emerson Holmes took the opportunity to say.
âWhy donât⦠senior executives take action personally?â Emerson Holmes suddenly proposed.
Upon hearing this, the room fell into silence.
None wanted to touch on this topic.
And from their attitudes, Emerson Holmes seemed to guess something.
âHuh? Whatâs that image Ethan Smith is holding in the screen?â Someone noticed the image controlled by Ethan Smith on the screen.
âWhat kind of Dharma Treasure is that? It actually dissolved the Power of Martial Saint effortlessly?â
âWhat are those two bodies?â
For a while, the attention of several executives was drawn to the video content.
After watching the entire video, they fell silent again.
âThat little girl⦠seems to bear some resemblance to a character recorded in the ancient books.â A high-up seemed to guess something.
âEmerson Holmes, send someone to capture her immediately!â A high-up quickly ordered.
Emerson Holmes however, awkwardly said, âWith my abilities, Iâm no match for Ethan Smithâ¦.â
The top executives were silent for a moment.
They were clearly able to grant Emerson Holmes power, but ultimately decided to wait for Ms. Hayward.
Obviously, these top executives didnât believe in Emerson Holmes.
âLet Ethan Smith live a few more days for now,â a high-up said coldly.
âEmerson Holmes, keep a close eye on Ethan Smith.â
After saying this, the high-ups began to slowly disappear.
After leaving the meeting room, Emerson Holmes pulled out a cigarette from his pocket and put it in his mouth.
A trace of cold smile appeared on his face.
âI seem to guess something.â Emerson Holmes chuckled softly.
â¦
With Ms. Hayward unconscious, Ethan Smith gained a moment to breathe.
During these days, Ethan Smith had been racking his brains, unable to figure out how to deal with the Power of Martial Saint.
At this time, Ethan Smithâs phone suddenly rang.
Looking at the phone, he found that the caller was the Pavilion Master.
Ethan Smith quickly picked up the phone and said, âLord Pavilion Master, why are you suddenly calling me?â
The Pavilion Master indifferently said: âEthan Smith, have you forgotten a lot of things?â
Ethan Smith was taken aback, he scratched his head and said, âLord Pavilion Master, what do you mean by this?â
The Pavilion Master indifferently said: âI remember that I once said I would let you use the warehouse but you had to agree to one condition, right?â
Ethan Smith slapped his head and quickly said, âLord Pavilion Master, I didnât forget, just tell me whatever you need me to do!â
The Pavilion Master continued: âYou also promised Ignacio Burke to give him the formula.â
âAh, yes, yes, yes, I have been too busy lately, I forgotâ¦â Ethan Smith was slightly embarrassed.
The Pavilion Master on the other end said, âCome to the Divine Alchemist Pavilion, Jackson Harris is also here.â
Having said that, the Pavilion Master hung up the phone.
Ethan Smith hastily stood up, mumbling, âDamn, I actually forgot about this.â
The man with the mustache murmured, âWhatâs up?â
Ethan Smith said, âI have to go to the Divine Alchemist Pavilion.â
âIâll go with you!â The man with the mustache quickly stood up and said.
âThe Divine Alchemist Pavilion is a great place. According to my geographic guess, it used to be a cemeteryâ¦â The man with the mustache said, licking his lips.
Ethan Smith glared at the man with the mustache and said, âYouâd better not mess with the Divine Alchemist Pavilion.â
The man with the mustache smiled awkwardly: âDonât worry, I wonât cause any trouble.â
Just as Ethan Smith was about to depart, his phone rang again.
Checking the phone, he found that the caller was actually Emerson Holmes.
Ethan Smith frowned slightly.
He walked to one side and answered the phone.
âWhat is it?â Ethan Smith asked in a deep voice.
Emerson Holmes said, âLetâs meet tonight, I have something to tell you.ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Ethan Smith was silent for a moment, then agreed, âOkay, where shall we meet?â
âIâll send you the address later.â
With that, Emerson Holmes hung up the phone.
Ethan Smith held the phone, his brows slightly knitted.
âThings are really coming together,â Ethan Smith said softly.
After some thought, Ethan Smith sent a text message to the Pavilion Master: I have something to do tonight, I will arrive at the Divine Alchemist Pavilion on time tomorrow.
It didnât take long for the Pavilion Master to reply: Okay.
At this moment.
In a mansion somewhere in Capital City.
A burly man was sipping tea.
This man radiated an unmatched aura, each movement carried an overwhelmingly powerful presence.
Most importantly, he wore a purple robe.
This man was none other than Bryson Gibbs, the purple-robed member of the Capital City Martial Arts Association, who held a high position.
As a purple-robed member, Bryson Gibbs was not responsible for Emerson Holmes or even the previous Davy Barnett, but directly reported to the top executives and Ms. Hayward.
Towards Emerson Holmes, Bryson Gibbs had always been apprehensive as his previous position was to maintain good relations with major families.
Such worldly people were often weak and easily swayed by interests.
Besides, Bryson Gibbs had his personal ambitions.
It was coveting the position of the president!
Although this position wouldnât surpass the status of the purple robe, it possessed more resources and honor!
As long as he could grasp Emerson Holmesâ misdeeds, he could replace him!
Therefore, Bryson Gibbs covertly sent a purple-robed member to secretly monitor Emerson Holmes.
At dusk that day.
Bryson Gibbsâ phone rang.
âBrother Gibbs, Emerson Holmes has left the house,â the voice on the other end reported.
âWhere did he go?â Bryson Gibbs asked.
The other side said, âQinvor Mountain.â
Bryson Gibbs was stunned.
Qinvor Mountain? The place where Ethan Smith and Broderick fought?
âBefore leaving, Emerson Holmes made a phone call,â the voice at the other end continued.
Bryson Gibbs narrowed his eyes and said, âKeep a close eye on him. No matter what news, inform me immediately!â
âYes,â the voice at the other end hung up the phone.
â¦
At this moment, Ethan Smith was heading towards Qinvor Mountain.
Meanwhile, Emerson Holmes had been waiting there early in Qinvor Mountain.
Everything around destroyed, this once desolate Qinvor Mountain was now even more deserted since the fight.
As the sky gradually darkened, Ethan Smith finally appeared in Qinvor Mountain around eight oâclock in the evening.
Emerson Holmes gestured to Ethan Smith, saying, âOver here.â
Ethan Smith grunted in acknowledgment, and immediately strode towards Emerson Holmes.
The pupils of the purple-robed man hiding in the dark contracted sharply!
âEthan Smith?â He muttered softly, and then chuckled, âEmerson Holmes, you secretly made contact with Ethan Smith, youâre done for!â
After saying that, the purple-robed man pulled out his phone and pointed it at Emerson Holmes, pressing the camera button.
