Chapter 1112

Chapter 1112: Chapter 1112: You're the One Being Played!_1 Chapter 1112: Chapter 1112: You're the One Being Played!_1 Dempsey Knox's face was twisted with madness, clearly enraged by Ethan Smith.

He strode across the seawater, rushing toward Ethan again, his hand transforming into a steel claw, clawing straight at Ethan's life gate!

Ethan, limited by the seawater, moved slower and couldn't evade.

He could only tilt his body slightly to avoid his life gate.

The claw-like hand, sharp as a blade, raked across Ethan's chest! His chest immediately split open, exposing white bones beneath!

Blood soaked into the seawater. If this continued, he might really die here!

Dempsey Knox was far from finished. Clasping power like thunderbolts in his grip, he advanced on Ethan again!

“Wait!”

At this critical moment, Ethan suddenly shouted.

Dempsey Knox's hand abruptly froze in mid-air.

He cast a cold gaze at Ethan and said, “What else do you have to say?”

Ethan glanced down at the blood on his chest and muttered, “Dempsey Knox, why did you suddenly turn against me?”

“Why? You lied to me, stole the Exotic Flowers, and still have the nerve to ask?” Dempsey Knox spat through clenched teeth.

Ethan's eyes flickered, and he sighed, “Then you must have misunderstood me.”

“Misunderstood? You're full of shit!” Dempsey Knox cursed furiously.

Ethan hurriedly defended, “No, truly you've misunderstood me! Why would I run away? Your Family Head is a mighty realm cultivator; where could I possibly escape to?”

Dempsey Knox's face darkened as he said, “Then why did you leave Cloud Dragon Island?”

Ethan feigned a pitiful look and said, “I had no other choice. You know as well as anyone that refining the Heavenly Essence Pill requires more than just the Exotic Flowers. It also demands a large quantity of herbs.”

“My stock ran out, so I had to leave temporarily to gather more. Who knew you'd misinterpret my actions so severely?”

Dempsey Knox narrowed his eyes and sneered, “Boy, do you take me for a fool? Do you think I'll believe your nonsense?”

“What I said is the absolute truth!” Ethan said with genuine sincerity.

“I never expected you all to misunderstand me like this.”

Dempsey Knox's expression became conflicted. He said coldly, “If so, then why did you leave without saying a word to us?”

“I was afraid you wouldn't believe me! I could already tell that you don't trust me. Look into your heart, and tell me–am I lying?” Ethan shouted.

Dempsey Knox froze for an instant, then let out a cold snort. “Even so, you took the Exotic Flowers–that means a dead end for you. No matter what you say today, I won't spare you!”

Realizing the situation, Ethan sighed, “If that's the case, then I have nothing left to say. You've come for the Exotic Flowers, haven't you? I'll return them to you.”

“Enough nonsense! Hand over the Exotic Flowers!” Dempsey Knox said coldly.

Ethan patted his chest and said, “No problem! I'll take you to find the Exotic Flowers right now!”

“Take me to find the Exotic Flowers? What do you mean?” Dempsey Knox asked coldly.

Ethan pointed upward and said, “The pressure here at the seabed is too intense. I feared the Exotic Flowers might be damaged, so I used a secret technique to hide them. Follow me.”

With that, Ethan swam swiftly toward the surface.

As long as he escaped the seawater's confines, the limitations on his strength would vanish.

By then, Dempsey Knox would be nothing worth mentioning!

Dempsey Knox showed no worry. After their earlier exchange, the outcome was already clear.

In his eyes, Ethan was insignificant.

He followed closely behind Ethan, swimming toward the surface.

Soon, Ethan emerged above the water.

Standing on the surface, he gasped heavily.

“Damn, almost screwed up,” Ethan muttered under his breath.

Not long after, Dempsey Knox's figure shot up violently from beneath the sea.

“Where are the Exotic Flowers?” Dempsey Knox asked coldly.

Ethan didn't rush to answer. Instead, he closed his eyes slightly, slowly recovering his injuries and settling his breath.

“I'm asking you where the Exotic Flowers are!” Dempsey Knox roared, his voice like thunder, causing the entire sea surface to churn with towering waves!

Ethan pointed at his stomach and said, “They're in my stomach.”

“What?!” Dempsey Knox's facial expression changed suddenly. “What do you mean?”

Ethan grinned broadly and said, “I ate them. I probably can't return the Exotic Flowers to you whole. If you're really desperate, you can wait until I–um–excrete them, and take them back.”

“My digestion isn't great, so there might still be some effects left. Eating them should still work.”

Hearing this, Dempsey Knox's veins bulged across his forehead.

His entire body trembled with rage, and the murderous spirit engulfing him spilled over the sea surface, instantly reducing countless innocent fish to blood mist!

“You brat! You're playing me again!” Dempsey Knox roared furiously, and for an instant, even the sky seemed to change color!

Ethan sneered, “That's right. I'm playing you. You're brainless, what can I say?”

“Ahhh!”

Dempsey Knox tilted his head back and roared. His furious shout echoed for hundreds of yards, the sound so deafening it made ears ache!

“You brat, you've repeatedly toyed with me. I'll tear you into a thousand pieces!” Dempsey Knox's glaring eyes were bloodshot, full of hatred.

In the next second, he stomped on the sea surface and charged at Ethan once more!

Ethan's lips curled into a sinister smile. His body emitted the Golden Light as he clenched his fists. Stepping forward, he swung his golden fist like a battering ram, slamming it toward Dempsey Knox!

The moment their fists collided, the seawater erupted, shooting hundreds of meters high!

The terrifying aftermath rippled outward like waves, spreading rapidly in all directions from their clash!

A massive water crater formed on the sea's surface, and for that moment, even tiny droplets of water carried unimaginable force!

The sea exploded; the temperature of the water beneath their feet soared, as if it were boiling!
