At this point, Mallory Poeâs face relaxed slightly.
âJudging from Ethan Smithâs performance, he shouldnât have discovered the secret inside the ring, which is a great fortune in misfortune,â Mallory Poe whispered.
However, Hanley Poe on the side was somewhat worried and said, âWhat if he finds out in these two days? As far as I know, the man with the mustache beside him seems to know something.â
Hearing this, Mallory Poeâs face changed slightly.
His eyebrows were tightly furrowed, and his face was filled with intense worry.
âIf it really fails, can we ask people from the Capital City Martial Arts Association to pressure him?â suggested Hanley Poe.
Mallory Poe shook his head and said coldly, âIâve already tried, but the people at the Capital City Martial Arts Association said that Ethan Smith simply ignored them.â
âDad, what should we do?â Hanley Poe asked with a worried face.
Mallory Poe sighed and whispered, âWe can only take one step at a time.â
â¦
On the other hand, after returning, Ethan Smith rummaged through his belongings and found the ring.@@novelbin@@
He played with the ring and whispered, âThe Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets has brought so many treasures just to exchange for this ring, which means the ring must be even more valuable.â
That being said, the thing was still stolen after all, so it seemed appropriate for Ethan Smith to return it.
âYo, where did you get so many treasures?â At this moment, the man with the mustache entered from outside.
Ethan Smith told the man with the mustache about what had happened.
After hearing the story, a flash of surprise crossed the mustache manâs face.
He frowned and said, âAs far as I know, this Mallory Poe is not a good person. He wouldnât do something like apologizing.â
âYes, otherwise, how could he have raised someone with Hanleyâs character?â Ethan Smith nodded slightly.
He handed the ring to the man with the mustache and said, âCan you see any mystery in this ring?â
The mustached man said, âPerhaps there is a treasure hidden inside?â
Hearing this, Ethan Smith tried to probe it with his divine sense.
However, the moment that strand of divine sense fell into it, a wave of fog rushed up to his face.
Everything around him turned pitch black in an instant, and he lost his sense of direction.
In the Spatial Magic Artifact, Ethan Smithâs divine sense instantly lost its function.
Ethan Smith quickly withdrew his divine sense, and his eyebrows couldnât help but furrow slightly.
âIâm afraid there really might be a treasure inside this ring,â said Ethan Smith, stroking his chin.
âBut after all, this ring belongs to someone else. It doesnât seem quite right for me to forcibly occupy it.â
The mustached man next to him sneered, âWhat if you return the ring and Mallory Poe turns his back on you? I bet youâll be so pissed off.â
âThat makes sense,â Ethan Smith agreed.
After thinking it over several times, a faint smile appeared on his lips.
The next day.
Ethan Smith, as promised, went to the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets again.
In his hand, he held a brocade box.
Inside the brocade box was the ring.
As soon as Ethan Smith entered, the members of the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets on both sides bowed and said, âMr. Smith, our Pavilion Master has been waiting for you for a long time. Please follow me.â
After saying that, the two led the way, stepping past the Great Hall of Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets.
After passing through the dark room, there was an imposing high mountain.
On top of this mountain, there were even artificial characters written down: Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets.
âThis place is so impressive,â Ethan Smith sincerely exclaimed.
He released his divine sense, and to his surprise, found that the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets was actually hiding many martial arts masters.
In addition, there were several unknown powers.
âIt seems that this Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets is not as simple as it seems on the surface,â Ethan Smith thought to himself.
Only with a strong foundation can it develop to such a scale. The Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets is no exception.
Under the guidance of the two, Ethan Smith began to climb the mountain.
The top of the mountain seemed to have been artificially flattened and was a vast plain.
On that plain, a huge villa was situated.
âMr. Smith, please come in,â the two bowed and said.
As Ethan Smith took a big step in, the first thing that caught his eye was a huge cabinet.
On the cabinet were placed numerous magical artifacts, all of which were top-notch!
Including the Divine Dragon Blade that Hanley Poe had in his hand, it was also placed on the wall.
âMr. Smith, youâve finally arrived,â Mallory Poe came out at this moment.
He warmly shook hands with Ethan Smith and said, âQuickly, letâs get to the table.â
Ethan Smith waved his hand and said, âDonât rush.â
He looked at the magical artifacts on the cabinet and said with a smile, âThese magical artifacts are quite extraordinary. Are they more precious than those outside?â
Mallory Poe chuckled, âGood eye. The magical artifacts here are indeed more precious and are one in a million treasures.â
Hearing this, Ethan Smith was somewhat puzzled and asked, âPavilion Master Poe, if the ring is so important to you, why would you put it in the Great Hall outside?â
Mallory Poe sighed softly and said, âThere was an urgent matter that day, and I hadnât had time to deal with it yet. I put the items on the iron platform, but I didnât expect such a thing to happen.â
Ethan Smith suddenly realized. He glanced at the magical artifacts on the cabinet and said, âThis Divine Dragon Blade is quite good.â
Mallory Poeâs eyes lit up, and he immediately took the Divine Dragon Blade down and handed it to Ethan Smith.
âIf Mr. Smith wants it, just take it! Letâs make friends!â Mallory Poe said with a laugh.
Ethan Smith didnât stand on ceremony and immediately put the Divine Dragon Blade away.
âThis horsetail whisk also seems to be quite good. Is it a Divine Rank Artifact?â Ethan Smithâs gaze fell upon a horsetail whisk.
Seeing the horsetail whisk, Mallory Poeâs mouth twitched slightly.
He gritted his teeth and said, âIf you like it, just take it!â
âThank you, Pavilion Master Poe,â Ethan Smith said as he also put the horsetail whisk away.
Subsequently, Ethan Smith picked several more Divine Rank Artifacts in a row.
What was astonishing was that Mallory Poe actually agreed to all of them!
It is important to remember that Divine Rank Artifacts are extremely precious, even for the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets, the number is not large.
And Ethan Smith took away four or five at once, even the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets couldnât bear it.
What was most incomprehensible was that Mallory Poe agreed!
âMr. Smith, letâs go and take our seats quickly,â Mallory Poe said with a smile.
Ethan Smith nodded, âAlright, today I have to thank Pavilion Master Poe for the gifts.â
With that said, the two went upstairs.
Upstairs, a banquet had already been prepared. Besides Hanley Poe, there was a row of women in cheongsams standing on one side.
These women had curvaceous figures and were extremely tempting, irresistible to anyone who saw them.
âPavilion Master Poe, what does this mean?â Ethan Smith asked in surprise.
Mallory Poe laughed heartily and said, âWeâre all men, and men have certain hobbies; donât be polite!â
Having said that, Mallory Poe clapped his hands, and the dozen or so cheongsam beauties immediately surrounded Ethan Smith.
Their enchanting bodies were pressed tightly against Ethanâs body, and their hands were slowly caressing Ethanâs chest.
