MRS. AND MR. SMITH - Season 8 Episode 48

Ethan Smith exuded a subtle oppressing aura.

The oppressive aura made the woman’s face even more panicked.

But at this moment, she had no strength in her whole body and became weak like a fish waiting to be slaughtered.

“What… what do you want to do!” The woman said in terror.

Ethan Smith said with a nonchalant smile, “Don’t worry, as long as you cooperate obediently, I guarantee I won’t kill you.”

“Cooperate?” The woman raised her eyebrows, sarcastically saying, “Men can be really shameless. They don’t want it unless it’s soft and tender?”

Ethan Smith sneered, “You’re overthinking it. I just have some questions for you. Just be honest and lie down there.”

The woman frowned, “What do you want to ask?”

Ethan Smith ignored her and slightly clenched his fists, feeling the abundant power in his body.

“Finally, I’ve reached the late-term Military Marquis.” Ethan Smith sighed.

The gap between the two stages was indescribable.

There was a difference between the pre-term Military Marquis and the late-term Military Marquis as great as the difference between heaven and earth!

Now, Ethan Smith didn’t fear any Peak Form of Military Marquis!

Fighting at higher levels was just an instinct for the chaotic body.

“Not only have I stepped into the late-stage Military Marquis, but I’ve also comprehended a technique…” Ethan Smith murmured.

“Technique? What technique?” The woman asked with furrowed brows.

Ethan Smith glanced at her and said, “A technique that can absorb nature’s spiritual energy.”

The woman’s face changed slightly, and she exclaimed, “Was the disappearance of the qi in my body just now because of this technique?”

“Exactly.” Ethan Smith nodded.

The woman said painfully, “I’ve cultivated for decades, and you… you’ve destroyed my foundation?”

“Don’t worry.” Ethan Smith waved his hand.

“I just comprehended this technique, so it’s not that exaggerated.”

“Your qi should recover after resting a while.”

Although he said so, the woman’s heart was still full of worry.

Ethan Smith didn’t bother with her. He stroked his chin, muttering, “What should I call this technique?”

He stood there pondering for a long time, then smacked his head, saying, “Let’s call it the divine devouring skill!”

The woman couldn’t help but laugh, “After thinking for so long, you came up with this name? Divine devouring skill… could it be any worse sounding?”

Ethan Smith glanced at her and said, “You are now in my hands. It’s easy for me to kill you or make you suffer.”

The woman’s face changed, she gritted her teeth and said, “You better not mess around, or… or the Ice Palace won’t let you off!”

Ethan Smith squatted down, sneering, “I hate being threatened by others my whole life, understand?”

The woman opened her mouth, not daring to say more for a while.

“From now on, I’ll ask you something, and you’ll answer. If I find out you’re lying, I won’t hesitate to kill you.” Ethan Smith said coldly.

The woman bit her lip and bravely said, “Ask.”

“What’s your name?” Ethan Smith asked.

The woman said coldly, “Violet Russell.”

“What kind of organization is the Ice Palace you mentioned?” Ethan Smith continued asking.

When mentioning the Ice Palace, Violet Russell said with some pride, “Our Ice Palace is a sect that has been passed down for a thousand years! It’s not something you little characters can provoke!”

“A sect passed down for a thousand years?” Ethan Smith stroked his chin.

As expected, there were still many top sects that had been passed down in this world.

“What’s the strength of your sect master? Martial Saint?” Ethan Smith asked with some doubt.

Violet Russell hummed, “Our sect master hasn’t stepped into the Martial Saint realm yet, but he’s only a step away!”

“Oh.” Ethan Smith let out a sigh of relief.

As long as he wasn’t a Martial Saint, things would be easier.

“A sect that has been passed down for a thousand years, and the sect master is just a Peak Form of Military Marquis?” Ethan Smith said sarcastically.

Violet Russell sneered, “Do you only know about the Peak Form of Military Marquis? Let me tell you, above the Peak Form of Military Marquis there’s the Consummate Inner Strength Grandmaster! And above that, there are Half-step Martial Sages!”

“The gap between each realm is as different as clouds and mud! It’s not something you can imagine!”

Ethan Smith smacked his head.

He had actually forgotten about the Half-step Martial Sages.

“So… your sect master is a Half-step Martial Sage?” Ethan Smith asked.

Violet Russell opened her mouth and snorted, “No, our sect master is at the Consummate Inner Strength Grandmaster Realm.”

“That’s not very impressive either.” Ethan Smith laughed.

“You’d better not insult our sect master! Or else…”

“Or else what?” Ethan Smith said, narrowing his eyes.

Violet Russell gritted her teeth and said, “What else do you want to ask?”

“One last question.” Ethan Smith stood up.

“What was your purpose in stealing the mask?” Ethan Smith’s voice became a bit colder.

Violet Russell frowned slightly, shaking her head, “I don’t know. All I know is that our sect master said the mask was important and that we must obtain it at all costs.”

Ethan Smith continued asking, “Did your sect master ever say anything about the purpose or use of the mask?”

Violet Russell shook her head, “I don’t know. The sect master never said.”

Ethan Smith sighed and whispered, “There’s no useful information at all. You’re really useless.”

Violet Russell gritted her teeth in the dark, angrily saying, “I’m a Peak Form of Military Marquis! How dare you call me useless?!”

Ethan Smith didn’t respond. He reached out and grabbed Violet Russell’s collar, lifting her up.

Violet Russell panicked, hurriedly saying, “What…what are you doing! Let me go!”

Ethan Smith gave her a glance and said, “If I let you go now, can you go back?”

Violet Russell frowned slightly.

It was true, she had no strength in her body now, and even walking was difficult.

“Rest assured, you’re still useful to me, so I won’t kill you.” Ethan Smith said while walking.

Violet Russell gritted her teeth and reluctantly said, “Can you change your posture? Must you hold me like this?”

“No.” Ethan Smith said expressionlessly.

…

Ethan Smith carried Violet Russell back to the Noble Family.

As soon as he entered, Guy Noble ran over.

“Ethan Smith, how come you brought a girl back? She looks quite pretty.” Guy Noble licked his lips and said lewdly.

Ethan Smith rolled his eyes, “She cultivates by absorbing men’s essence. Anyone who has a relationship with her will turn into dry bones.”

Hearing this, Guy Noble was immediately frightened and stumbled.

“Ethan Smith, who is this woman?” Pat Noble couldn’t help but ask.

Ethan Smith explained, “She’s from the Ice Palace and tried to attack me, but I caught her.”

“Ice Palace?” Hearing this name, Pat Noble’s face couldn’t help but change slightly.

“It seems you’ve heard of the Ice Palace.” Violet Russell sneered.

“Since you’ve heard of the Ice Palace’s reputation, I advise you to release me as soon as possible. Otherwise, our sect master will definitely come with an army to annihilate your Noble Family!”
