Mrs. and Mr. Smith
Chapter 1693

Chapter 1693: Chapter 1639 Shen Tu Chapter 1693: Chapter 1639 Shen Tu Ethan Smith was slightly puzzled, but attending the auction wouldn't take long and there was nothing to lose, so he agreed.

After he entered the auction, Ethan picked up his paddle and sat down.

The auction was indeed crowded with many people who seemed to want to seize an opportunity to catch up with their cultivation that had lagged behind.

Ethan kept his eyes slightly closed and sent out his divine sense which encompassed more than half of the auction.

Soon he noticed several powerful individuals.

But just as he was about to further investigate, his divine sense was abruptly cut off!

Before Ethan could react, a cold voice surfaced in his mind, “Withdraw your divine sense. Do not cause trouble for yourself.”

Ethan's brow furrowed instantly.

Communicating directly through divine sense-such capability was truly terrifying!

Ethan zeroed in on the source of the voice and saw a handsome elegantly dressed young man not far away, his eyes slightly closed.

And it seemed as if the voice had come directly from him.

Powerful individuals of such a young age were rare in the Southern Province!

Which suggested that this youth was likely not from the Southern Province!

Ethan retracted his divine sense and leaned back in his chair.

The presence of such a powerhouse indicated that the woman's words were not falsehoods.

There must indeed be some rare treasure appearing at today's auction, whether or not it was something from the ancient underworld as she mentioned, remains to be seen.

With every second passing away, the auction eventually began after a long while.

The initial items up for auction were all mediocre. Although they were treasures, they were not rare, hence the auction atmosphere was a tad bit cold.

Ethan occasionally glanced at the youth, who, just like Ethan, showed no intention of bidding.

The youth kept his eyes closed, not even bothering to look around.

“This person is probably here for the item from the ancient underworld too,” Ethan thought to himself.

Then after quite a while, the auction appeared to be nearing its end.

At this point, someone walked onto the stage carrying a large box.

The box looked extremely ancient and was covered in dust.

In addition, there was a faint sense of antiquity emanating from the box. The aura was quite cold and chilling, making people shiver involuntarily.

Ethan's eyes fixed onto the box on the stage, and he sent a thread of his divine sense hoping to sense something.

But sadly, Ethan's divine sense couldn't penetrate the box.

Ethan remained undeterred, he tried to activate his desolate divine eye, sending a ray of light towards the box.

However, the result was still disappointing. Even the desolate divine eye could not penetrate the box.

“This thing really is extraordinary,” Ethan thought.

Soon after, Ethan looked in the direction of the youth.

As expected, the youth had opened his eyes looking at the box.

Greed shone in his eyes; evidently, he was here for the box too.

Ethan wasn't sure whether to feel elated or sorrowful at the moment. He noticed the box which meant it was certainly a treasure.

However, with Ethan's capabilities, he might not be a match for the youth. Even if he managed to get his hands on the box, he might not be able to keep possession of it.

“Maybe it's not a treasure at all, just an unusual box,” Ethan thought to himself.

Soon, the auctioneer on the stage began to speak.

He looked at the box in front of him and said, “I believe many of you have heard of this item. It is said to originate from the legendary ancient underworld, of course, whether it's true or false, you'll have to judge for yourself.”

“Stop wasting words, open the box,” the youth seemed to say impatiently.

The auctioneer shook his head, “I'm sorry, but the owner of this treasure stated that the box was not to be opened.”

“Not to be opened?” The youth's face turned cold, a flick of his finger and the box suddenly exploded!

The next second, the box abruptly opened!

An extremely chilling aura swept the entire Great Hall in an instant!

Under the influence of this youth's powerful capabilities, the object inside the box directly floated into mid-air!

“You can't do this, our auction…”

“Bang!”

Before the auctioneer could finish his sentence, the youth lifted his finger. The powerful burst of energy instantly launched the auctioneer!

Witnessing this, Ethan immediately furrowed his brow.

The actions of this youth were not different from robbery!

“If you come to the auction, you have to follow the rules of the auction!”

“Exactly, are you trying to steal? Aren't you going a bit too far?!”

“If you continue like this, don't blame us for being rude!”

Even the owner of the box hurriedly rushed onto the stage, looking at the youth with a cautious expression.

But the youth didn't care at all. He swept his eyes over everyone and then shouted angrily, “Are you looking for death?”

The outburst triggered a surge of terrifying aura, extremely dreadful!

This youth had likely reached the Reversion Void Stage!

Ethan's brow furrowed, he didn't know the origins of this youth, but he was certain that this person must have come from some Great Family.

“Young master, the family head has said that we should not cause trouble outside, let's forget about this, the item is gonna be ours,” said an elderly man sitting next to him.

Having heard this, the youth calmed down.

He snorted coldly and sat back down.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they saw this, but the looks they cast towards the youth were full of caution.

The auctioneer, who was injured by his finger, had to be replaced temporarily.

Now that the box was already open, there was no need to put the item back, so he simply picked up the item from the box and began showing it to everyone.

Ethan scanned the item and saw that it was a token.

The token appeared ancient, engraved with some strange characters.

At the very center of the token were two lines of characters.

The first line read “ancient underworld”.

The second line was a name: Shen Tu.

Upon seeing the word “Shen Tu”, Ethan immediately stood up, his eyes locked firmly onto the token!

While the name Shen Tu might be unfamiliar in the Holy Region, it was all too familiar for Ethan!

In another corner of the Starry Sky, Ethan had heard legends about Shen Tu.

Shen Tu was indeed from Satan, one of the Five Emperors of Satan!

“Could it be… this token is indeed from the ancient underworld…” Ethan was utterly astounded!

If Shen Tu was truly from the ancient underworld, wouldn't it mean that the myths on Earth are likely true?!

At this moment, there was a sudden disturbance in the Spatial Magic Artifact Ethan possessed.

In response, Ethan quickly sent out a sliver of divine sense into his Spatial Magic Artifact.

He saw the Venerable Fifth Mountain within his Spatial Magic Artifact, shimmering and sparkling!
