Mrs. and Mr. Smith
Chapter 1587

Chapter 1587: Chapter 1587: Seeing Clare Richardson Again Chapter 1587: Chapter 1587: Seeing Clare Richardson Again Justin Vasquez opened his mouth, seemingly wanting to persuade Ethan Smith to give up, but after much thought, he just smiled and said nothing.

“Alright, I'll be in charge of these materials. I'll gather them for you as soon as possible,” Justin Vasquez said.

Ethan Smith nodded and said, “Thank you.”

After explaining this matter, Ethan Smith took out the second note.

This note was from Ken Middleton, the one who asked Ethan to find.

The man's name was Kendrick Burke, and his whereabouts was specified on the note.

As Ken Middleton explained, Kendrick Burke was extremely powerful, but his personality was very peculiar and demanding. He was crafty and persuading him was not an easy task.

But Ethan Smith was prepared; he was ready to sacrifice something as long as he could convince Kendrick Burke to help.

Thus, according to the address on the note, Ethan Smith rushed to Kendrick Burke's place.

At the northern border.

Ken Middleton stood by the dead river, looking out in the distance.

He was deep in thought, and his eyes revealed a sense of resolution.

“Are you really going to do this?”

Just then, an aged voice came from behind Ken Middleton.

Turning his head, the visitor turned out to be Monk Theo Miller!

If Ethan Smith found out, he would be greatly surprised!

Ken Middleton didn't turn around. He continued to look across the river and slowly said, “I have no other choice.”

“Crossing the dead river is not as simple as you think,” Monk Theo Miller said, sighing slightly.

Ken Middleton exclaimed, “Indeed, those who crossed the dead river, none of them had done it easily…”

Monk Theo Miller was silent for a moment and said, “Why don't you consider other solutions? The Southern Province is full of talents, I believe there will be other ways.”

Ken Middleton turned around, looked at Monk Theo Miller in front of him, and said, “Once the Lord of North Plain wakes up, who can defeat him? If we do not eliminate him before he wakes up, it will be a disaster for everyone.”

“So you sent Ethan Smith away, dismissed all the people at the border, and plan to cross the dead river alone to defeat the Lord of North Plain?” Monk Theo Miller asked, his voice trembling slightly.

Ken Middleton smiled and said, “Yes.”

“What if Ethan Smith returns, will he accompany you to the dead river?” Monk Theo Miller asked in a deep voice.

Ken Middleton shook his head and said, “He can't make it back in time. I have given him two difficult tasks. The Valepeak crystal can't be found at Valepeak Mountain and Kendrick Burke, who is dark and malicious, he won't be able to persuade him.”

Hearing this, Monk Theo Miller sighed inaudibly.

He looked at Ken Middleton and slowly said, “The two of you brothers, you guys are really… will your brother stop you if he knew about this?”

“He will definitely stop me.” Ken Middleton said in a serious tone, “So he cannot know.”

At this moment, Ken Middleton's rough palms reached up to his mask.

He slowly took off the mask, revealing a face that was extremely familiar.

This face was identical to the Leader of Cloud Sect!

Whoever saw this would be shocked!

“He yearns for a worthy opponent, while I thirst for peace,” Ken Middleton muttered to himself as if he was telling his innermost thoughts.

“Why didn't he go to the Holy Region? Why did he stay in the Southern Province?” Monk Theo Miller asked.

Ken Middleton slowly said, “Maybe… he is also waiting for the dead river to disappear.”

Monk Theo Miller put his hands together, and said, “Then I wish you all the best, Ken Middleton.”

With that, he slowly disappeared into the expanse of the snow-covered landscape.

If their conversation were to get out, it would definitely cause shockwaves!

Ken Middleton and the Leader of Cloud Sect are actually twin brothers! No wonder he always wore a mask! Perhaps it was just to cover his face!

“I will never let the Lord of North Plain resurrect…” Ken Middleton clenched his fist, determination clear in his eyes.

Elsewhere, Ethan Smith was rushing to Kendrick Burke's residence.

The speed of the Divine Eagle was extremely fast. But many days of long journeys had made the Divine Eagle extremely tired, it let out sorrowful cries from its beak.

Ethan Smith patted his head, apologetically saying, “I'm sorry, I've neglected your feelings these past few days.”

The Divine Eagle raised its head and let out a loud cry, shattering the calm, as if expressing its resentment.

Luckily, there was a city below, although remote, it could at least let the Divine Eagle rest for a bit.

So, Ethan Smith found a tavern and stayed there for a while.

He took out a few Pills from his pocket and stuffed them into the Divine Eagle's mouth.

After consuming the Pills, the Divine Eagle seemed to gain a sudden burst of energy.

But these Pills needed time to be absorbed, hence Ethan Smith could only temporarily stay at this place.

Taking advantage of the Divine Eagle's time in consuming the Pills, Ethan Smith entered the tavern and found a place to sit down.

He ordered a few dishes and a pot of alcohol, and waited while eating and drinking.

The tavern was not crowded, and the strength of the people dining there was not formidable.

Perhaps it was for this reason that this place had not been invaded by the cultivators of North Plain, and remained a peaceful haven.

“Huh?”

Just then, Ethan Smith suddenly sensed a strong and strange aura.

His eyes closed slightly as he tried to sense the aura, in an attempt to find its source.

For some reason, Ethan Smith felt that this aura was incredibly familiar, as if it belonged to someone close to him.

Ethan Smith frowned, he left a magic coin, and slowly stood up to leave the tavern.

Immediately, Ethan Smith followed this trace of aura, bursting toward its source!

As Ethan Smith sped ahead, the source of the aura became closer and the familiar feeling became more noticeable.

In no time, Ethan Smith saw a silhouette near a mountain range close to the city.

This person had a slender figure, his back was to Ethan Smith, his hair was sleek and draped over his shoulders, his aura was calm, yet domineering, just like a lotus, only for distant admiration, not for vulgar play!

“Clare Richardson?!”

Ethan Smith quickly identified this person's identity, he hastened to arrive in front of her, afraid that Clare Richardson would depart!

Soon, Ethan Smith was in front of Clare Richardson.

What surprised Ethan Smith was that she did not have a mask on, her real face was revealed.

Looking at this familiar, yet somewhat unfamiliar face, Ethan Smith had an indescribable feeling.

“Clare Richardson, you…”

Ethan Smith opened his mouth, he was unsure what to say.

Clare Richardson just looked at Ethan Smith, her face showing no sign of emotional fluctuation, her eyes, vacant yet icy.

Ever since Clare Richardson got her mask, she seemed like a different person, she was no longer playful, instead, she gave people the creeps.

“Have you been waiting for me? Where have you been all this time?” Ethan Smith asked while trying to gauge any fluctuation in Clare Richardson's aura.

Unfortunately, Ethan Smith was unable to make out her strength.

“Ethan Smith, so you are here…”

Just then, a surge of black light suddenly emerged in front of Ethan Smith. Following this, he saw several black-robed men stepping out from the Void.
