MRS. AND MR. SMITH - Season 5 Episode 48

This news quickly swept through the entire Martial Arts Forum, even temporarily overshadowing Dexter Blair’s limelight!

“Ten half-step Martial Marquis are hunting down Ethan Smith? Have they gone mad?”

“How could a mere Ethan Smith possibly warrant the deployment of ten half-step Martial Marquis?”

“Even at his peak, Ethan Smith wouldn’t be worth such a fuss!”

“Hehe, isn’t this just a rumor? The Halcroen Sect has already been blacklisted by Pyro; even if they really want to hunt him down, why would they make such a high-profile move?”

People were buzzing with comments, expressing doubts about the message.

Soon, the person who posted the news provided a response.

“This decision was made after the Halcroen Sect evaluated Ethan Smith’s strength.”

This statement immediately caught everyone’s attention!

What does this mean?

Is the evaluation of Ethan Smith’s strength by the Halcroen Sect so high that it is worth using ten half-step Martial Marquis to get rid of him?

Isn’t this a bit too far-fetched?

Seeing this news, Ethan Smith couldn’t help but frown.

Ten half-step Martial Marquis?

Has the Halcroen Sect gone crazy?

“The Halcroen Sect really overestimates me.” Ethan Smith frowned and muttered softly.

This also couldn’t help but make one marvel at the Halcroen Sect’s power.

Just casually dispatching ten half-step Martial Marquis, how strong must their foundation be?

If it was just about martial arts, could even the big aristocratic families now in power match them?

“Ten half-step Martial Marquis… This is really a headache.” Ethan Smith stroked his chin and muttered softly.

Even with the Venerable Fifth Mountain and the Divine Dragon Power, Ethan Smith still didn’t think he could face ten half-step Martial Marquis.

It was debatable whether he could even defeat one.

“It seems I must hurry to Dolan.” Ethan Smith thought silently.

Atticus Kane, a man of modest talents who managed to step into the Peak Form of Grandmaster Realm and even created multiple thesse some.

This was enough to show that Dolan was hiding an unknown secret.

“I’ll set off for Dolan tomorrow, and also ask Evelyn Norton what’s going on.” Ethan Smith thought in silence.

The news of the Halcroen Sect issuing a kill order soon spread like wildfire.

Normally, the Martial Arts Association would handle such matters.

The Capital City Martial Arts Association issues an order, which is executed by the other associations.

As the owner of the Martial Arts Forum, the Capital City Martial Arts Association naturally learned of the news firsthand.

Top executives of the ten associations were sitting at a large round table.

These people all possessed immense power and had unfathomable strength.

“Everyone has seen it, right? The Halcroen Sect has openly issued a kill order.”

“Hmm, are they challenging Pyro’s dignity or are they challenging our Martial Arts Association?”

“The arrogance of the Halcroen Sect has reached an outrageous point.”

“Let the guardians handle it. As long as the Halcroen Sect dares to enter our territory, just kill them.”

Everyone expressed their opinions, but at this moment, a very discordant voice came out.

“I think it’s not worth bothering about.”

The speaker was none other than Emerson Holmes, Dexter Blair’s master.

All eyes fell on Emerson Holmes.

“Mr. Holmes, what do you mean by that?” someone asked.

Emerson Holmes said indifferently: “The Halcroen Sect’s target is Ethan Smith. You all should know who Ethan Smith is, right?”

A brief silence fell on the scene, and no one spoke for a while.

Emerson Holmes continued: “As far as I know, this Ethan Smith pays no regard to status and has no fear in his heart. Not only did he challenge the Blair and Taylor families, but he also had several confrontations with the Martial Arts Association.”

After saying this, Emerson Holmes took out several documents and threw them on the table.

“These are complaints from various martial arts associations.”

“The Budo Association of Unchon City was beaten and smashed by Ethan Smith, with countless deaths and injuries.”

“The president of the River North Martial Arts Association had both his legs crippled by Ethan Smith.”

The high-ranking members took the documents one after another and began to read them carefully.

“Mr. Holmes, even so, we can’t just sit back and do nothing, right?”

“Yes, if Ethan Smith needs to be dealt with, it should be done by our Martial Arts Forum, not the Halcroen Sect.”

Emerson Holmes smiled faintly: “You all need to look beyond the surface and see the essence.”

“In my opinion, the threat posed by Ethan Smith far exceeds that of the Halcroen Sect.”

“Mr. Holmes, don’t joke around. Ethan Smith is just a Grandmaster. What qualifications does he have to be mentioned in the same breath as the Halcroen Sect?”

Emerson Holmes scoffed: “He’s a Grandmaster now, but what about in the future?”

“People like Ethan Smith, carrying a rebellious heart and lacking fear, will never view the Martial Arts Association with respect once they grow strong!”

“In the future, he may even cause upheavals in the entire martial arts world for the sake of so-called justice and fairness!”

“Mr. Holmes, aren’t your words too harsh?” someone frowned and said.

Emerson Holmes snorted and said: “It seems you all have forgotten about that person back then.”

Mentioning “that person”, everyone’s faces changed in unison as if it were an existence that must not be mentioned.

“At the beginning, when he appeared, we also mistook him for someone who couldn’t achieve anything.”

“And later? He almost destroyed our Martial Arts Forum!”

Everyone fell silent, seemingly swayed by Emerson Holmes’s words.

Emerson Holmes said calmly: “Ethan Smith must die, the sooner the better.”

“Moreover, I have already consulted with the presidents, and they agree with my approach.”

The group of high-ranking members looked at each other and then nodded: “Since it has come to this, we have no choice but to proceed.”

“However, we hope that things can be kept within a controllable range.”

Emerson Holmes nodded slightly: “Don’t worry, the Halcroen Sect’s target is only Ethan Smith.”

After the meeting ended, Emerson Holmes left the meeting room.

He took out his phone and called Reilly Blair.

“Mr. Blair, don’t worry, Ethan Smith won’t live much longer.” Emerson Holmes said calmly.

Reilly Blair on the other end grunted and then said: “Old Holmes, my son said he wants to kill Ethan Smith himself in front of Emily Taylor. You understand my meaning.”

Emerson Holmes hesitated for a moment, and after a pause, he said: “I understand. I will intervene at the crucial moment and save Ethan Smith’s life.”

“Not only do you have to save him, you must also cripple him!” Reilly Blair said coldly.

“Dexter can’t lose, otherwise, the entire Blair family and the entire aristocratic family of Capital City will lose face!”

Emerson Holmes said solemnly: “I understand.”

After leaving these words, Emerson Holmes made another call.

“Send someone right away to keep an eye on Ethan Smith.” Emerson Holmes said coldly.
