Mrs. and Mr. Smith -
Chapter 1575
Chapter 1575: Chapter 1575: The Devious Mr. Snider Chapter 1575: Chapter 1575: The Devious Mr. Snider At these words, Ethan Smith's face instantly became extremely cold.
Knowing he was no match for Ethan Smith, Mr. Snider quickly hid behind him.
Ethan Smith reached out his hand, and a strong suction force directly pulled him over!
With one hand clutching Mr. Snider's neck, he held him in mid-air.
“Almost forgot, you troublemaker, you have survived this long,” Ethan Smith said coldly.
Mr. Snider managed to open his mouth, saying, “You… are you guilty and want to silence me by killing me…”
People nearby quickly interjected: “Mr. Smith, please… spare him. Right now, the Cloud Sect is in need of people…”
Ethan Smith glanced at the people, and then loosened his grip.
“I will let you live a little longer,” Ethan Smith said coldly.
After he finished speaking, Ethan Smith raised his hand and gently touched between Mr. Snider's brows.
A mark vanished into his mind immediately.
“No matter where you run, I can find you,” Ethan Smith said coldly.
This instantly turned Mr. Snider's face extremely pale, but he did not know what to do.
Ethan Smith ignored Mr. Snider and walked up to the Deputy Sect Master, asking, “Deputy Sect Master, do you have any news of Salena Carpenter?”
The Deputy Sect Master gasped for breath and struggled to say, “I haven't heard… What's the matter?”
Ethan Smith's brows furrowed as he recounted what had happened to the Deputy Sect Master.
After the Deputy Sect Master heard, his expression did not look too good either.
He said in a low voice, “Salena Carpenter is powerful and should not be in any trouble…”
“Normally speaking, that's indeed the case, but…” Ethan Smith opened his mouth, but ultimately swallowed the rest of his sentence.
The fewer people who knew about Salena Carpenter's Nirvana Body, the better.
With Salena Carpenter's strength, she should indeed not be in any trouble, even if she is no match for the two Godly Kings, she wouldn't have any issues protecting herself.
But it was Salena Carpenter's unique body constitution that was cause for worry.
“Mr. Smith, the Deputy Sect Master is not in a good physical condition, let him rest properly…” someone nearby interrupted.
Ethan Smith graced with an affirmation, looking to the Deputy Sect Master, he said, “Deputy Sect Master, I need your help in mobilizing Cloud Sect's contacts to find Salena Carpenter.”
“Okay… okay.” The Deputy Sect Master nodded in agreement.
Without disturbing the Deputy Sect Master any further, Ethan Smith turned to Kingsley Kelley.
“Find me a room,” Ethan Smith demanded.
Kingsley Kelley quickly nodded, “Master, please follow me.”
Ethan Smith followed behind Kingsley Kelley, all the way to the Cloud Sect's herbal store.
“All of the Cloud Sect's herbs are here,” Kingsley Kelley explained.
Ethan Smith graced with another affirmation, and said, “The Deputy Sect Master's issue is not big, no need to worry too much.”
“Alright, Master, thank you,” Kingsley Kelley bowed deeply.
“By the way, what exactly is going on with the Cloud Sect Master?” Ethan Smith stopped Kingsley Kelley, inevitably glancing towards Cultivation Mountain.
At this moment, Cultivation Mountain had already become ruins, it was a devastating sight.
Kingsley Kelley let out a sigh and explained everything to Ethan Smith.
“We all thought the Sect Master was dead, but it was just a false body created by the Divine Stone,” Kingsley Kelley sighed deeply.
Ethan Smith frowned, “So, the Cloud Sect Master was never on Cultivation Mountain? What we saw was just his false body?”
“There's a high possibility,” Kingsley Kelley nodded.
“We are still speculating as to where his true body could be.”
“Some say he is roaming the mortal world to practice cultivation, others suggest that he got tired of this life, and has long since changed his identity and secluded himself, but those are all guesses.”
Ethan Smith was silent, feeling that this Cloud Sect Master was becoming increasingly mysterious and truly unfathomable.
If he was willing to lend a hand, the odds of winning this battle would be much higher.
“Alright, I understand,” Ethan Smith nodded at Kingsley Kelley.
“Then I won't disturb you anymore.” Kingsley Kelley did not linger and turned to leave.
Inside the herbal store, Ethan Smith found several herbs and began making the Pill.
Though the demand for this Pill was not great, it still required a certain measure of attention and time. It would likely take a whole day and night.
That night.
In the Cloud Sect's Council Chamber, many elders were gathered around a table.
“Mr. Snider, why have you summoned us?” one Elder asked.
Mr. Snider cleared his throat and then spoke solemnly, “I have invited you all to discuss a matter concerning Ethan Smith.”
“What do you mean? Mr. Snider, if you have something to say, say it directly,” an elder advised.
“Have you ever thought that Ethan Smith might take this opportunity to kill our Deputy Sect Master?” Mr. Snider said blandly.
“I know he has some pill-refining abilities, but why would he be so kind as to help us?”
“Remember that the Cloud Sect and him have deep-rooted hatred!”
Upon hearing these words, everyone exchanged glances.
“Impossible, if Ethan Smith wanted to harm the Deputy Sect Master, he could have done so last time, or even wiped out the Cloud Sect with Eternal!” an Elder said coldly.
“Indeed, without Ethan Smith's help last time, would the Cloud Sect even be here today?”
Mr. Snider chuckled, “Naive, you are truly naive! Don't forget, our Sect Master is still on Cultivation Mountain, who knows if he is afraid?”
“Ha, with Ethan Smith's current ability, if he wanted to kill the Deputy Sect Master, why should he resort to such means? If he wanted to kill someone, who in this room could stop him?” another Elder retorted.
“Mr. Snider, stop stirring up trouble here.”
“Exactly, Ethan Smith is kind enough to help us, and we're here doubting him, don't you think that's too much?”
Mr. Snider's face turned cold, and he huffed, “Have you all forgotten about the enmity between Ethan Smith and our Cloud Sect!”
“Philbert Duncan died by his hand, our First Elder also died by his hand! Even the Sect Master's son died by his hands!”
“This type of grudge, can it simply be forgotten?”
Although his words were harsh, the many Elders in the room did not seem to take them seriously.
In their eyes, the current Ethan Smith absolutely would not scheme against the Cloud Sect.
Seeing the situation, Mr. Snider took a deep breath and suggested, “Let's do this, the alchemist I found will arrive tomorrow, let him have a try, how about it?”
“If my alchemist successfully cures the Deputy Sect Master, then it will be cause for celebration. If he can't, then let Ethan Smith try. This should be acceptable, right?”
Everyone in the room thought for a moment and nodded their agreement, “Okay, let's do as you say, but… remember, do not offend Ethan Smith, and certainly do not be disrespectful!”
“Rest assured,” Mr. Snider chuckled coldly.
Mr. Snider wanted to perform this act to gain merit.
The current Cloud Sect was akin to headless dragons. If the Deputy Sect Master were to step down, it was highly likely that the next one would be selected from among them.
If he could perform a meritorious deed at this time, he stood a good chance to be the next acting Sect Master!
