At this moment, Ethan Smithâs intent to fight was almost at its peak.
This pure energy swept through the entire street.
Dominic Taylorâs brows furrowed tightly as he sneered, âEthan Smith, donât think I donât know what youâre up to.â
âYou lean on the Power of Martial Saint and try to challenge me? You think Iâll fall for it?â
Ethan Smith sneered, âDo I need the Power of Martial Saint to kill you?â
âWell, the Power of Martial Saint inside you isnât infinite. There will be a time when it disappears, and that will be your death knell!â Dominic Taylor roared back.
âAgreed.â Ethan Smith replied coldly.
âKylan Taylor, stop thinking about Emily Taylor and cherish the remaining time with your son.â
With these words, Ethan Smith turned around to leave.
âEthan Smith, are you really not going to hand over the person?!â Kylan Taylor couldnât help shouting.
âGo to hell!â Ethan Smith cursed without even turning his head.
Kylan Taylor gritted his teeth. Although he was furious, he had no way to deal with Ethan Smith.
The current Ethan Smith had reached a level of power that left the Taylor family completely helpless.
Without a Martial Saint, no one could restrain Ethan Smith!
Having no choice, the group could only leave.
Upon returning to Capital City, Ms. Hayward had been waiting since early.
Seeing Kylan Taylor return, she eagerly greeted him, asking, âMr. Taylor, did you manage to bring anyone back?â
Kylan Taylor couldnât help cursing, âNo! Ethan Smith shows no signs of letting anyone go! I was thinking of asking you guys from the Capital City Martial Arts Association for help!â
Upon hearing this, Ms. Hayward immediately slumped to the ground, her face filled with despair.
If the person was not returned, that meant Broderick was destined to die!
This was something that Ms. Hayward, who was childless, could not accept!
âMs. Hayward, why donât you use a Martial Saint to kill Ethan Smith?â Dominic Taylor asked in confusion.
âDoesnât the Capital City Martial Arts Association have a Martial Saint? And⦠it seems like thereâs also a Martial Saint in the prison, right?â
Ms. Hayward glanced at Dominic Taylor, shook her head, and said, âIf we could use a Martial Saint, would Ethan Smith still be aliveâ¦â
Leaving these words behind, Ms. Hayward left the place with a lost soul.
â¦
Meanwhile, at the Divine Alchemist Pavilion-
Ethan Smith stood under the Pavilion Master Building, continuing to wait.
An entire day and night passed.
It wasnât until late at night that the Pavilion Master finally came down from upstairs.
Upon seeing the Pavilion Master, Ethan Smith quickly ran towards him.
âLord Pavilion Master, how is Emily?â Ethan Smith anxiously asked.
The Pavilion Master shook his head and sighed, âIt seems like the Capital City Martial Arts Association has been well prepared for someone to escape with her.â
âWhat do you mean?!â Ethan Smith asked anxiously.
The Pavilion Master said solemnly, âThe Capital City Martial Arts Association has used a secret technique on Emilyâs divine sense. This technique can only be undone by someone from the Capital City Martial Arts Association.â
âThis technique will take effect as soon as Emily leaves the Capital City Martial Arts Association.â
Ethan Smithâs face changed drastically.
He murmured, âHow can this be⦠what will happen if the secret technique isnât undone?â
The Pavilion Master said gravely, âIf this secret technique isnât undone, Emily will never be able to recover her conscious awareness. Put plainly, she will become a living dead.â
âLiving Deadâ¦â Ethanâs heart felt like it was pierced by a thousand arrows. A wave of fury surged straight to the top of his head!
âCapital City Martial Arts Associationâ¦â Ethan Smithâs fist clenched tightly, his nails almost digging into his flesh!
The Pavilion Master at his side comforted him, âEthan Smith, donât be too hasty. This technique doesnât threaten her life. In other words, your girlfriend is at least safe.â
Ethan Smith quickly looked at the Pavilion Master and asked, âLord Pavilion Master, what is the name of this secret technique?â
âSpirit binding technique.â The Pavilion Master hesitated for a moment before answering.
âSpirit binding techniqueâ¦â Ethan Smith murmured this name, then quickly started searching for any mention of the Spirit binding technique in his inherited memory.
Unfortunately, Ethan Smith couldnât find any reference to this technique.
âThe Spirit binding technique was created by the Capital City Martial Arts Association, and apart from them, no one else can undo this technique.â The Pavilion Master seemed to see through Ethan Smithâs intentions.
A hint of despair appeared on Ethanâs face.
So this means that I can only ask someone from the Capital City Martial Arts Association to undo it?
With this thought, Ethan Smith stood up and said, âIâm going to go to the Capital City Martial Arts Association and find Ms. Hayward!â
However, the Pavilion Master stopped him, âItâs already late night now. Wait until next year.â
âBesides, you took the person away, so maybe Ms. Hayward is already in the Mystic Realm.â
Ethan Smith frowned, seeming to think that the Pavilion Masterâs statement made sense.
âCome upstairs with me,â said the Pavilion Master.
Ethan Smith nodded, then followed the Pavilion Master, slightly leaping onto the upper floor.
Upstairs, Emily Taylor was lying in a medicinal pool.
Her whole body was soaked in medicinal liquid, and a droplet slid down her fair skin.
Seeing this, Ethan Smith couldnât help but feel his heart wrench.
He moved forward, kneeling on one knee in front of Emily Taylor.
âEmily, wait for me. I will wake you up as soon as possible. Wait for meâ¦â Ethan Smith grabbed Emilyâs hand, his face filled with pain.
The Pavilion Master at his side comforted him, âYouâve already rescued her from the Mystic Realm, thereâs no need to blame yourself anymore.â
Ethan Smith took a deep breath and stood up. His face was filled with determination.
âI wonât give up, even if itâs the Capital City Martial Arts Association!â Ethan Smith said coldly.
âBesides⦠The Capital City Martial Arts Association has caused Emily to suffer so much. If I donât exterminate them, I wonât rest easy!â
The Pavilion Master comforted him, âThereâs no need to rush. Youâve already come so far in just two years. You should be proud.â
While speaking, the Pavilion Master led Ethan Smith into the tea room.
Inside the tea room, Jackson Harris was waiting for Ethan Smith.
âMaster Jackson.â Ethan Smith slightly lowered his body in greeting.
Jackson Harris couldnât help but sigh, âEthan Smith, your rate of growth⦠is much faster than I imagined.â
âYouâre probably the first person in history to manage to bring someone out from the Capital City Martial Arts Association.â
Ethan Smith said coldly, âNot enough. The Mystic Realm of the Capital City Martial Arts Association is still hiding many powerful individuals.â@@novelbin@@
âYes, youâre right.â Jackson Harris confirmed Ethan Smithâs thoughts.
He sighed, âWhen I once experienced the strength in their Mystic Realm, the feelings of powerlessness and frustration nearly made me want to give up on life.â
Ethan Smith looked at Jackson Harris, asking, âMaster Jackson, have you also been in the Mystic Realm?â
âYes, in the Second Secret Realm.â Jackson Harris nodded.
Ethan Smith said solemnly, âIn this Second Secret Realm, I could sense mysterious forces.â
âAnd at the time of my departure, there was an extremely powerful force chasing me, was it⦠a Martial Saint?â
Jackson Harris cast a glance at Ethan Smith and nodded. âYes, in the Second Secret Realm, there truly is a Martial Saint.â
