Mrs. and Mr. Smith
Chapter 1291

Chapter 1291: Chapter 1291: The Degeneration of Human Nature_1 Chapter 1291: Chapter 1291: The Degeneration of Human Nature_1 The terrifying murderous intent filled the entire Hunter organization.

The naturally cruel Philbert Duncan wished he could slaughter everyone in front of him at this moment.

However, he eventually took a deep breath and said coldly, “I am here to issue a bounty, and everything follows the rules. As for the death of your team leader, I have no idea.”

“Go to hell!”

“Quit pretending, everyone knows you were behind it!”

“You will die a horrible death!”

Hearing these malicious curses, Philbert could no longer hold back.

He roared angrily, “Enough! I can offer you a high reward! Whoever finds Ethan Smith or provides information about him, I will give them two hundred thousand magic coins!”

“Who cares about your stinking money!”

“That's right, get lost!”

Philbert remained calm and continued to raise the price, “Three hundred thousand.”

Hearing this number, the abuse from the crowd seemed to lessen significantly.

Philbert continued to raise the price, “Five hundred thousand.”

The abusive voices became even fewer, and many people even began to be tempted.

“One million!” Philbert roared.

Finally, with the high reward offered, only a handful of people were still cursing.

Money can make the devil work, this is an unchanging truth.

Although Ged Shepherd was furious, he knew that he couldn't change anything.

Just then, Urban Dittman stepped out from the shadows.

He smiled faintly and said, “Since Mr. Duncan is willing to offer a high price, we have no reason to refuse.”

Ged Shepherd looked at Urban Dittman coldly. He opened his mouth to speak, but in the end, he remained silent.

Ever since Ethan warned him, he had been suspicious of Urban Dittman.

He was also very clear that with the white bone scepter, Urban Dittman now had no rivals who recognized him.

“Mr. Duncan, please come this way,” Urban Dittman gestured respectfully.

Under the watchful gaze of everyone, Philbert was taken to another office and successfully signed the bounty order.

As soon as the bounty order was issued, countless Hunters came to accept it.

That day, hundreds of Hunters entered the Azure Rock Forest and began their search for Ethan Smith.

Meanwhile, Ethan Smith was slowly recovering from his injuries.

The disappearance of his spiritual power had its pros and cons. At least now, it was difficult for others to find Ethan and it was also difficult for him to become a target for Demonic Beasts.

He hid in a dense forest, quietly waiting for his injuries to heal.

However, Ethan knew that this was not a long-term solution; Philbert Duncan and his people would eventually find him.

With Cloud Sect's capabilities, finding someone was not difficult.

“If I want to escape, I'll have to go deeper into the Azure Rock Forest and cross that boundary line,” Ethan thought to himself.

But this was even more unrealistic. They were still far from that boundary line, and yet they had already encountered extremely powerful Demonic Beasts.

If they went any further, death would be certain.

“Once my injuries are healed, I must kill Philbert Duncan!” Ethan vowed to himself.

For the next few days, Ethan's life was relatively peaceful.

He looked down at the new flesh on his hands and whispered, “I should be recovered enough.”

Gently clenching his fists, Ethan could still feel a hint of pain.

It would probably be difficult to exert his full strength.

Just then, there was a sudden commotion in the forest.

Countless trees were uprooted, and a huge Demonic Beast swooped down from the sky!

The terrifying gale almost flattened the entire Azure Rock Forest, and even Ethan felt an intense oppressive force.

Ethan furrowed his brows and cautiously watched the Demonic Beast.

However, he soon realized that the Demonic Beast was not targeting him, but someone else!

“Huh? Have more Hunters arrived, or have Philbert's people found me?” Ethan whispered to himself.

He quickly hid and then activated the desolate divine eye to look in the direction of the Demonic Beast.

With the help of the desolate divine eye, Ethan's gaze penetrated the darkness of the Valley, staring directly at the rampaging Demonic Beast.

He saw two Hunters desperately fighting the Demonic Beast, but it was too powerful for them to handle.

In just a matter of minutes, the two were beaten to a bloody pulp, their bodies nearly shattered.

“No, we won't survive if this continues…” The two of them looked terrified.

“Run, go…”

The two turned and attempted to flee, but the Demonic Beast showed them no mercy.

This was a flying spider with two arms. It spat steel-like threads from its mouth, quickly wrapping around the bodies of the two people!

The two struggled in vain but found that they could not break free!

“It's over… it's all over…”

They looked at the huge Demonic Beast in horror, their faces filled with despair.

As the flying spider grew closer and closer, its gaping mouth emitted a foul stench.

Just when they had given up, a figure suddenly burst out!

The slender frame contained a terrifying power.

The fist slammed into the flying spider's head, sending it flying back several hundred meters!

The two people hurriedly looked at the figure and exclaimed, “Etha… Ethan Smith!”

Ethan looked back at them, quickly walking over and tearing the threads on their bodies with brute force.

“How are you? Are you alright?” Ethan asked, frowning.

The two quickly scrambled to their feet and bowed, saying, “It's just some minor injuries…”

Although they said this, in reality, their bones were shattered and mangled.

“How did you end up here? The Demonic Beasts here are too ferocious and not suitable for you to hunt,” Ethan furrowed his brows as he spoke.

The two looked at each other and then awkwardly said, “We… we got lost.”

Ultimately, they did not reveal their true purpose, and Ethan did not realize that they had come looking for him.

“Leave this place as soon as you can,” Ethan frowned.

The two nodded quickly, “Alright, Ethan. What about you? Will you continue staying here?”

Ethan nodded and replied, “For now, this is a good hiding place. Philbert and his men shouldn't be able to find me any time soon.”

Seeing this, the two people said nothing more.

After saying goodbye to Ethan, they turned and quickly left.

Only when they had gone a considerable distance did they stop.

“I didn't expect Ethan to be hiding here,” one person exclaimed.

“We can just tell Philbert about this, and we'll get one million.”

However, the other person frowned and said, “But… Ethan just saved our lives. Without him, we would have been devoured by that flying spider.”

“He saved us, and in return, we betray him. Isn't that inappropriate?”

“There's nothing inappropriate about it. We didn't ask for his help, and besides, that's one million! Just think about how long it would take us to earn one million magic coins!”
