Mrs. and Mr. Smith
Chapter 1863

Chapter 1863: Chapter 1863: Father's Hardship Chapter 1863: Chapter 1863: Father's Hardship Alfie Tenny's body fell heavily to the ground, smashing into the snow-white earth and leaving a deep pit, from which blood continuously flowed.

Everyone fell silent, no one seemingly expecting such an outcome.

Just a moment ago, they were evenly matched, but within a blink of an eye, Alfie Tenny was left with no strength to fight back.

Looking at Alfie Tenny's body lying in the pool of blood, Ethan Smith sank into silence, not speaking for a long time.

After a while, he sighed softly and murmured, “Ah, it seems that controlling the primordial spirit isn't as simple as I thought.”

Surrounding people were struck speechless, not expecting that what Ethan Smith had been thinking had nothing to do with Alfie Tenny.

It seemed that such a chosen one had not caught his attention at all.

“Peak master, when do we set off?” At this point, Ethan looked towards the peak master.

The peak master forced a smile and said, “The day after tomorrow.”

“Alright.” Ethan nodded, then cupped his fists in thanks. “Thank you.”

The peak master said nothing more, feeling even more puzzled about Ethan's identity.

The doors of the Martial Arts Hall opened wide, and everyone left the scene one after another.

Ethan didn't linger either, immediately returning to his cave abode.

All of Demon-Slaying Peak was astounded by Ethan's strength.

They began to compare Ethan with Ninth Cloud, who was once considered the number one on Demon-slaying Peak, but now his position seemed in jeopardy.

“If they face off, I'm afraid Ethan might even have the upper hand!”

“That's not necessarily, after all, Ninth Cloud's realm is much higher than Ethan's. If they were on the same level, Ethan would most certainly win.”

“I personally think that even the current Ethan would be difficult for Ninth Cloud to defeat.”

With everyone discussing back and forth, it even became their topic of conversation after meals.

“This kid is obviously playing the part of a weakling.”

“Ah, no wonder Frederick Cohen defended him so much. Now it seems that what Frederick said was right.”

The Tenny Family.

At this moment, no one knew that Alfie Tenny was already dead, as they hadn't even considered such a possibility.

It wasn't surprising, considering how powerful Alfie Tenny was; he had few equals among the younger generation.

Even the top sons of the Central Province wouldn't dare to say that they could certainly beat him.

Over the past few days, Addison Tenny had an uneasy feeling in his heart, his face clouded with gloom.

Stanley Yoder, who accompanied him, naturally understood his feelings.

No one wishes to be overlooked by their own father, including Addison Tenny.

“Don't overthink it; your father's heart must be concerned about you the most,” Stanley Yoder comforted him.

Addison clenched his teeth and said, “I just wish Alfie Tenny would die at Ethan's hands!”

Stanley sighed softly and replied, “You and I both know that's impossible. With Alfie's skills, not to mention Ethan, even I have no certainty.”

Upon hearing this, Addison became even more furious.

He said coldly, “Sooner or later, I will get rid of Alfie Tenny!”

“Is that your ambition?”

At this moment, Ronin Tenny entered the room.

Seeing Ronin, Addison's face suddenly became unnatural.

He got up in a hurry, stammering, “Father… father, I was just speaking nonsense, please forgive me…”

Ronin didn't say a word; he walked slowly towards the two of them.

On his body, a terrifying pressure was emitted.

Under the dreadful pressure, Addison and Stanley couldn't help but tremble, their bodies shaking uncontrollably, eventually collapsing to their knees.

Ronin sat down in the Throne and coldly watched Stanley, asking, “How have you been teaching Addison?”

Stanley's mouth opened, but he was drenched in cold sweat and dared not say too much. All he could do was stammer, “It… it's all my fault…”

Ronin snorted coldly, and a terrible force directly sent Stanley retreating several steps, coughing up blood nonstop.

Ignoring his injuries, Stanley crawled back up and knelt in front of Ronin once more.

Unable to bear it any longer, Addison glared at Ronin and yelled, “This is all because of you in the first place! Why did you pin the blame on Stanley?”

Stanley's face paled, and he quickly scolded, “Young Master, don't talk nonsense!”

But Addison didn't listen; he glared at Ronin and said, “If you dare, kill me today and make Alfie your son! Otherwise, give me the respect I deserve!”

The atmosphere in the room instantly solidified; Ronin stayed silent, only staring coldly at Addison.

Meanwhile, Stanley, in the corner, didn't even dare to breathe. Sweat poured down his forehead, falling like raindrops.

After a long while, Ronin couldn't help but shake his head.

Looking at Addison before him, he said faintly, “My blood flows in your veins; no one can compare to you.”

“Alfie Tenny, at best, can only be considered a guardian stone for our family. Over the years, I've tried to curry favor with the Great Families, but have been ignored. If this continues, the Tenny family will only face destruction.”

“After I die, how will you face the division and encroachment of the other families?”

Hearing Ronin's words, Addison was stunned.

“I don't have much time left.” At this moment, Ronin revealed a heavy piece of news.

“If I can't establish a strong descendant in a short time, no one can protect you.”

Addison's face changed instantly, turning pale.

“Father, you…”

Stammering, Addison didn't know what to say.

“Remember, Alfie Tenny is here just to pave the way for you. I've planted a mark in his body; no matter how powerful he becomes later on, he must serve our Tenny family,” Ronin continued.

“Today, I control him; once I'm gone, you'll be the one controlling him.”

After hearing Ronin's words, Addison slumped to the ground, his body limp.

Ronin had been alive for thousands of years, and during this time, he had given his all for the Tenny family.

Now, his lifespan was approaching its end; he had tried to break through the True Saint Realm but ultimately failed.

“That token holds a tremendous secret and opportunity, the only chance for our Tenny family to rise again,” Ronin suddenly changed the subject, speaking coldly.

“No matter the cost, you must retrieve that token. As long as we can unlock the secret of the Forbidden Zone, the Tenny family can instantly become the top aristocratic family in the Holy Region!”

Having said that, Ronin stood up and walked out.

As Addison sat there, dumbfounded, he remained silent for a long time.

“Now you understand the well-intentioned motives of the Master,” sighed Stanley Yoder beside him.

Addison remained silent, his heart filled with mixed emotions, not knowing whether to feel sad about his ignorance or disappointed by his incompetence.
