Chapter 2088: Chapter 2088: Hodge Family's Grand Gathering_1 Chapter 2088: Chapter 2088: Hodge Family's Grand Gathering_1 Ethan Smith's pupils slightly shrank upon hearing that, and he asked, “Anthony Hodge? Has he reached the True Saint Realm?”

Dean Garner nodded: “As you guessed, Anthony Hodge has become the first of the younger generation to step into the True Saint Realm.”

Ethan Smith furrowed his brows, a sense of urgency surged in his heart.

As the leading genius of the Holy Region, now that Anthony Hodge had entered the True Saint Realm, Ethan Smith felt tremendous pressure.

“I didn't expect to catch up with them just for us to fall behind again…” Ethan said with a bitter smile.

Dean Garner laughed heartily: “You shouldn't belittle yourself. As of now, only Anthony Hodge has stepped into the True Saint Realm. Besides, he has always been ahead of all his peers.”

Ethan Smith nodded slightly, and his curiosity about Anthony Hodge grew.

All this time, Ethan Smith had always considered Daniel Wilson, Corbin Green, Williams Saintess, and others to be unparalleled geniuses that appeared once in millions of years, even he felt immense pressure.

He had not expected that there would be a genius in the Holy Region who surpassed them all.

Soon, Dean Garner informed Ethan Smith about the Hodge family's banquet. For Ethan Smith, it seemed like a good choice, so without hesitation, he decided to attend the feast.

Of course, although the Hodge family had issued a command that no one could start a fight at the banquet, nobody knew if they would act for the Traceless Immortal Scripture. Therefore, Ethan Smith decided to hide the Traceless Immortal Scripture in Thunder Courtyard for the time being to prevent accidents.

“There's one more thing I must tell you,” Dean Garner suddenly said.

Seeing the solemn expression on Dean Garner's face, Ethan Smith felt somewhat uneasy.

He remained silent, waiting for what Dean Garner had to say.

“The Day of Heaven's Mandate is approaching, and it will not exceed three months at most,” said Dean Garner.

Ethan Smith's face changed, and he exclaimed in shock, “What?! So soon? Wasn't it said that it would be at least a year?”

Dean Garner shook his head: “Under the Golden Age, dao techniques are unpredictable, anyone's guess can be flawed.”

Ethan Smith's face became a bit unsightly, as the Day of Heaven's Mandate meant that Daniel Wilson and Emily Taylor would soon be engaged.

This was not a piece of good news for Ethan Smith.

Nonetheless, Ethan Smith thought that he and Daniel Wilson were now at the same level, and who would win in the end was still uncertain.

With this thought, Ethan Smith felt more relaxed again.

“Now, it's the world of your younger generation. I believe that the old immortals from the Great Families will not easily take action,” said Dean Garner, which slightly reassured Ethan Smith.

Ethan Smith hurriedly bowed and said, “Dean Garner, I understand.”

At the same time, the Hodge family had already begun preparing the banquet.

The location of the Hodge family was very unique – a small world created by their ancestors.

This small world was incredibly stable, said to be as strong as the Holy Region and unlikely to collapse easily.

Many people began to gather towards the Hodge family. This small world was located above a Void. The originally empty area now burst with colorful light as if declaring it to the world.

Through the light, people could enter the Hodge family's territory, but since the time hadn't arrived yet, the gates weren't open.

Three days passed quickly, and the day of the grand event came.

On that day, Dean Garner handed Ethan Smith a gift box.

“Dean Garner, what is this?” Ethan Smith asked in surprise.

Dean Garner stroked his beard and smiled: “You're representing Thunder Courtyard, so go and give the Hodge family a gift.”

Ethan Smith suddenly realized that for such a grand event, it was necessary to bring gifts.

As Thunder Courtyard was an institution almost on par with the Nine Great Families, they naturally had to send a gift.

“As long as I bring this gift, people will understand that I represent Thunder Courtyard, and they won't easily attack me. Dean Garner is very considerate,” Ethan Smith thought to himself.

However, Ethan Smith had no reason to fear at this moment. Now that he had entered the Semi-Saint Realm and possessed both Schmidt's Divine Robe and the Mysterious Mirror, even facing a True Saint, Ethan Smith still had the confidence to escape.

Soon after, Ethan Smith used the teleportation formation at the Thunder Courtyard to head towards the Hodge family.

The area below the Hodge family was now crowded, and the gates above had opened, releasing strands of rosy light.

Through the strands of rosy light, one could see the gigantic gate bearing an ancient atmosphere, as if it had existed for tens of thousands of years.

The gate was engraved with various mysterious runes, exuding a strange luster. These runes seemed to possess some power that would cause a tremor in one's mind if seen at a glance.

The Hodge family's gate was not made of ordinary material but carved out of rare spiritual stones from nature, exuding a rich aura.

This kind of spiritual stone was very precious and could only be found in special locations. It could enhance the stability of the formation, making the entire small world safer.

Ethan Smith held the gift box and stepped into the crowd.

At this moment, he had already become a well-known figure in the Holy Region. His appearance instantly attracted countless gazes and discussions.

“Ethan Smith? He's actually here too?”

“Hmph, what a bold guy. He barely escaped just over ten days ago, and now he dares to come to the Hodge family.”

“He probably knows the Hodge family's rules, so he has nothing to fear.”

“So what? Once he leaves the Hodge family, who will care about him?”

“Don't think so simply. Since he dares to come, he must have the confidence not to see that he's holding a gift box? That brocade box is clearly unique to Dean Garner.”

Ethan Smith ignored the people's discussions. With a slight bounce under his feet, he stepped into the rosy light, entered the Hodge family's main gate, and stepped into their small world.

The moment he stepped into this small world, Ethan Smith couldn't help but exclaim in surprise! Because this small world was nothing like any other Mystic Realms!

When he stepped in, Ethan Smith didn't feel anything different from the outside world, whether it was qi or dao techniques, everything was the same!

“This…it doesn't seem to be artificially made; it seems more like it naturally became part of the real world,” Ethan Smith thought to himself.

At first glance, the entire Hodge family was enormous. After all, they had occupied an entire world for themselves, which was incomparable to any sect or aristocratic family.

Unlike the grand atmosphere of the Taylor and Wilson families, this place was closer to nature, as if entering a natural landscape.

“No wonder the Hodge family boldly invited everyone. The number of people this small world can accommodate is terrifying,” Ethan Smith couldn't help but shake his head and sigh, becoming even more curious about the Hodge family.

“Mr. Smith.”

At that moment, a familiar voice came from behind him. He turned around and saw Williams Saintess and Corbin Green walking towards him.

Ethan Smith responded with a smile, “Greetings, Williams Saintess.”
