Tilda Avery pushed the door open and walked straight towards Ethan Smith.
She smiled and said, âEthan, we owe you our thanks for this time, or it could have been a disaster.â
âItâs what I should do.â Ethan Smith nodded.
âHow is Mr. Avery now?â
Tilda Avery replied, âMy father is doing well. Heâs inviting you to join us for dinner.â
Ethan Smith didnât hesitate and immediately agreed.
The two of them left the room and walked towards the depths of the Avery Family Manor.
Inside the villaâs great hall, a sumptuous dinner had already been set up.
Even more, on both sides of the table, servants were standing ready.
Mr. Avery sat at the head of the table, with his three children accompanying him on either side.
âDad, Ethan has arrived.â Tilda Avery brought Ethan Smith to Mr. Avery.
Mr. Avery waved at Ethan Smith, saying somewhat surprised, âI didnât expect you to be so young.â
Ethan Smith greeted, âIâve met Mr. Avery.â
Mr. Avery smiled and gestured, âCome in, sit down.â
Ethan Smith didnât hesitate and found a spot to sit down.
A servant nearby immediately poured wine for Ethan Smith.
âEthan, we owe a lot to you this time. If it werenât for you, something terrible might have happened to my father.â Herman Avery raised his glass.
Although Ethan Smith felt a bit awkward, he still raised his glass and clinked it with Herman Averyâs.
At the dinner table, Tilda Avery praised Ethan Smith endlessly, repeating all the kind words the Lord Pavilion Master had for him.
After the courses, Mr. Avery said, âEthan, you saved my life. If you want anything, just ask.â
âThatâs right, whether itâs money, women, or herbs, you just have to say it!â Herman Avery also chimed in.
Ethan Smith thought for a moment, then looked up at Mr. Avery and spoke seriously, âI donât need any of these. I only need one thing.â
âGo ahead.â Mr. Avery nodded.
âI want the Power of Martial Saint.â Ethan Smith said.
At these words, the room suddenly went silent.
Everyone frowned at each other.
âNo.â Mr. Avery said coldly.
âThe Power of Martial Saint is the foundation of our Avery family. Itâs more important than my life!â Mr. Avery looked displeased.
Herman Avery nearby hurriedly said, âEthan Smith, just change your terms. Except for the Power of Martial Saint, we can promise you anything.â
Ethan Smith said solemnly, âTo be honest, the reason I came to Avery Family was for the Power of Martial Saint. Apart from it, I donât need anything else.â
Hearing this, Mr. Avery slammed the table and stood up angrily!
He roared, âThereâs no way youâll get the Power of Martial Saint! Give up on that idea!â
After speaking, Mr. Avery waved and said, âGive him some money and let him go!â
Tilda Avery was also worried, she whispered to Ethan Smith, âEthan, hurry and change your request.â
Ethan Smith shook his head, âMrs. Avery, other than the Power of Martial Saint, I donât think thereâs anything else I need.â
Herman Avery took out a bank card and said, âThere are ten million yuan in here. You can have it.â
Ethan Smith glanced at it, pushed the bank card back, and shook his head, âI donât lack money.â
âThis is your own choice!â Mr. Avery said coldly.
Seeing the situation, Ethan Smith sighed inwardly.
Obtaining the Power of Martial Saint was not that easy after all.
After all, the Avery Family was not the wealthy Capital City Martial Arts Association.
For aristocratic families, the Power of Martial Saint was their most crucial foundation.
Unless there was a disaster of extermination, the Power of Martial Saint would not be used.
A moment ago, the atmosphere at the dinner table was warm, but now it became freezing cold.
Ethan Smith slowly stood up, intending to say goodbye.
At this moment, two men suddenly broke in from the outside.
The two were strong and had an imposing air, and their faces were full of ferocity, indicating that they were not to be trifled with.
âWho are you!â Herman Avery quickly stood up and shouted angrily.
These two men sneered and said, âWe are from the Purple Flame Sect.â
Hearing the words âPurple Flame Sect,â the faces of everyone in the room changed slightly.
The two men walked straight to the dining table and sat down, then asked indifferently, âWhoâs in charge here?â
Mr. Avery took a deep breath and was about to speak, but Herman Avery stood up and said, âI am. What do you want?â
âHehe.â The men from the Purple Flame Sect grabbed some meat and stuffed it into their mouths.
Then, chewing on the meat, they said, âOne of our Purple Flame Sect members was killed in your Avery family. We are afraid you have to give us an explanation for this incident.â
âYour men?â Herman Avery frowned immediately.
Ethan Smithâs face also looked somewhat uneasy.
The two men from the Purple Flame Sect were indeed killed by him.
âThe two people were killed by me.â Ethan Smith stood up and said.
âIf you want to take revenge, come find me.â
Hearing these words, the two men from the Purple Flame Sect couldnât help but frown.
They looked at each other and then asked, âYoung man, what are your relations with the Avery family?â
Ethan Smith replied, âNo relationship. I came to treat Mr. Avery.â
This caused the two men to frown even further.
âHehe, whether you have anything to do with the Avery family or not, the fact remains that someone got hurt in the Avery family. We from the Purple Flame Sect need the Avery family to answer for it.â They said coldly.@@novelbin@@
âAs for you, naturally, we wonât let you off.â
Ethan Smith was about to speak when Herman Avery stopped him and said, âWhat do you want?â
The two men stood up, stretched lazily, and said with a faint smile, âOur Sect Master said, as long as your family is willing to submit to the Purple Flame Sect, we can let this matter go.â
âIf notâ¦weâll show no mercy to anyone or anything!â
Herman Avery said coldly, âIsnât that going a bit too far? As far as I know, it was your men from the Purple Flame Sect who came to our Avery family and caused trouble, thusâ¦â
âStop with the useless talk.â The two men grew impatient and waved their hands.
âIâm giving you three days to decide. If you donât make a decision by then, our Sect Master will not give you any more chances!â
After throwing down these words, the two men left the room.
Watching their retreating figures, Ethan Smith couldnât help but frown,âItâs my fault, I killed them. I will take responsibility for this.â
But Herman Avery shook his head, âIt has nothing to do with you. The Purple Flame Sect is obviously targeting our Avery family. Theyâre just looking for an excuse to attack us.â
