Mrs. and Mr. Smith
Chapter 1384

Chapter 1384: Chapter 1384: Stop Asking!_1 Chapter 1384: Chapter 1384: Stop Asking!_1 Ethan Smith followed behind Clara Cobbett, heading towards the library.

On the way, Ethan casually asked, “Clara, what do you plan to do in the future? Why don't you choose to cultivate?”

Clara glanced at Ethan and said, “Do you think I don't want to? For someone like me, it's already good enough to stay alive, let alone my cultivation isn't low.”

Hearing this, Ethan couldn't help but laugh.

“What, you don't believe me?” Clara glared at Ethan and immediately released her inner Qi.

A faint burst of qi rushed towards Ethan.

“How about it? Feeling pressured now?” Clara said with a hint of pride.

Ethan coughed dryly and said, “You…don't even seem to have reached the Nascent Soul Realm, do you?”

“Not even? You're pretty arrogant.” Clara glared at Ethan, “I'm considered a rogue cultivator now, being able to cultivate to this realm is already pretty good, alright?”

Ethan just smiled but said nothing.

The Holy Region was a place where strength was supreme; as long as one had talent, there would always be opportunities for success.

For example, in Clara's hometown, those with talent had already been taken away by various major sects.

“You might want to try joining a sect to cultivate, even a small one would be good,” Ethan advised.

Clara rolled her eyes, “I don't want to join any sect. I want to be a chivalrous woman who hates evil, just like Ethan Smith!”

Ethan sighed and said, “Ethan Smith had no choice but to do that. Do you think he doesn't want to settle down?”

“Don't act like you know him so well, okay?” Clara said angrily.

“With his own skills, Ethan Smith killed Philbert Duncan, and the whole Cloud Sect still can't find him. Isn't this something to be proud of?”

Ethan was speechless, not knowing what to say.

“Although I don't have Ethan Smith's abilities, I will do what I can.” Clara snorted.

“When I see injustice, I draw my sword to help. When I see the weak being bullied, I will stand up for them.”

Ethan gave a thumbs up to Clara and said, “I admire your approach.”

Clara scoffed and said, “People like you wouldn't understand.”

By the time they were done talking, the two had arrived at the library.

This was an enormous loft, emitting a golden radiance that was extremely dazzling.

“Let's go; this is the place.” Clara pulled Ethan along.

The two entered the library, and as soon as they stepped inside, an ancient atmosphere hit them.

Obviously, this library had been around for many years, and there weren't many people visiting it.

“Do you come here every week?” Ethan casually asked.

Clara nodded and said, “I try to maintain coming here once a week.”

Ethan acknowledged her answer and then asked, “Where are the books related to the Southern Province's history?”

Hearing this, Clara rolled her eyes and said, “What are you looking at that for? Does it have anything to do with you? For you, the most important thing right now is to improve your strength! Learning more cultivation methods is what you should be doing!”

“You're right; I'll keep the lessons in mind. But now I want to know more about the Southern Province. Can you tell me where the relevant books are?” Ethan was gradually losing his patience.

Clara seemed to notice Ethan's irritation and stopped her chattering. She pointed to a section and said, “Most of them are over there; go have a look by yourself.”

Ethan grunted in agreement and then walked in that direction.

“Ah!”

But just at that moment, Clara screamed behind him!

Not only that, but Ethan also clearly felt a strong murderous spirit approaching!

Turning around, he saw a sharp blade aiming straight for Clara's brow!

Clara tried to resist, but her strength was too weak to put up any resistance!

In a desperate situation, Ethan no longer cared about hiding his strength. He violently shook and instantly appeared in front of Clara, his palm blocking her forehead.

“Clang!”

A crisp sound exploded in Ethan's palm!

The sharp blade was instantly bent! In contrast, Ethan's palm was unscathed!

Clara was trembling all over with fright. She subconsciously looked at Ethan's palm and her face changed again.

“Your hand…” Clara pointed at Ethan's palm.

Ethan's expression changed slightly, he quickly put his palm in his pocket and said casually, “My hand is fine.”

Clara wanted to say something else, but Ethan changed the subject, “Where did that knife come from just now? Who have you offended? Why would anyone want to kill you?”

“I…I don't know.” Clara said, “I've never offended anyone…”

Ethan quickly walked out of the library, his eyes scanning the surroundings, but found nothing unusual.

Obviously, the person who had made the move had already fled.

“Damn it,” Ethan couldn't help but curse under his breath.

This carelessness had exposed his own strength, and if word got out, it would likely cause trouble.

Soon after, Clara also followed him out. She stared at Ethan and curiously asked, “Why are you unharmed?”

“Because I have a magical artifact on my hand,” Ethan coldly replied.

“But…”

“There's no buts. Stop asking, alright?” Ethan's tone became extremely cold.
