Mrs. and Mr. Smith
Chapter 2089

Chapter 2089: Chapter 2089: The Mysterious Hodge Family Chapter 2089: Chapter 2089: The Mysterious Hodge Family The ancient saintess nodded with a smile, her celestial aura was overwhelming, and her charm, with a touch of nobility, was ever more evident in her flirtatious glances.

Corbin Green patted Ethan Smith on the shoulder: “Didn't expect Mr. Smith to be here too, things just got more lively.”

Ethan Smith smiled at Corbin Green without uttering a word.

As for Corbin Green, Ethan Smith did not particularly like him. Although he seems suave and charming, in reality, he was somewhat sinister at heart.

“Mr. Smith's aura… seems to have become much stronger.” At this point, the ancient saintess exclaimed in surprise.

Ethan Smith was privately taken aback.

Despite concealing his aura well, it was still seen through by the ancient saintess.

“Indeed, I've made some progress.” Ethan Smith admitted, nodding. There was nothing to conceal about this, better to simply admit it.

The ancient saintess chuckled, “Mr. Smith, you are truly humble.”

“Looks like the Traceless Immortal Scripture really did benefit you quite a bit.” Corbin Green made a casual remark.

Upon hearing these words, Ethan Smith was silent, his dislike for Corbin Green intensified.

“Ethan Smith!”

At this moment, another voice was heard.

Gazing over, he saw Saint Harris dashing towards him in a hurry.

Rushing up to Ethan Smith, he glared at him, “You deceived me! Did you take the Traceless Immortal Scripture?”

Ethan Smith cleared his throat, then with a smile, “What are you talking about? When did I ever deceive you?”

“It's being said all around that the Traceless Immortal Scripture is in your hands! Shit, I almost died in Chaos Grave!” Saint Harris fumed.

Ethan Smith shrugged, “I never admitted that. They can say what they want, it has nothing to do with me.”

Saint Harris glared, “It's definitely on you! Hurry, return my Harris Family's Mysterious Mirror, you promised!”

Ethan Smith coughed awkwardly, then laughed it off, “Saint Harris, we clearly had a fair swap, how could it be taken back now…”

“We traded fairly, but you also promised to return the Mysterious Mirror to me!” Saint Harris insisted.

“Sure, I can return it to you, but not now. If I give it to you now, it would be the end of me.” Ethan Smith responded with a smile.

Hearing those words, Saint Harris suddenly changed his expression.

A moment ago, he was brimming with anger. Now, he bore a mischievous smirk.

He nudged Ethan Smith with his shoulder and proposed, “You can keep the Mysterious Mirror for now, but I have one condition. Let me take a look at the Traceless Immortal Scripture later, what do you think?”

Ethan Smith felt a cold sweat forming on his forehead.

This Saint Harris is truly cunning, that angry act was only a facade.

“Saint Harris, it's been a long time.” The ancient saintess greeted.

Only then Saint Harris noticed the ancient saintess, he coughed awkwardly, putting on a warm smile, “Ancient Saintess, you're here too. Ah? Saint Green is here too? Long time no see!”

Corbin Green on hearing this, immediately laughed, “Brother Harris, this time your Harris family has really helped Ethan Smith. If it wasn't for the help from the Harris family, Ethan Smith probably wouldn't have gotten the Traceless Immortal Scripture, right?”

Ethan Smith's brow furrowed slightly.

Corbin Green's words had a specific intention. On the surface, it just seemed like a casual discussion, but in reality, it was full of traps.

However, Saint Harris was no pushover, he laughed loudly, “Didn't you hear? We have had a peaceful exchange! If we were to talk about who helped, I think you, Saint Green, should bear the main responsibility!”

“Me? What responsibility do I bear? My Green family has a feud with Ethan Smith.” Corbin Green said coldly.

Saint Harris, pretending to be surprised, said, “Ethan Smith, you have a feud with the Green family? I thought you two were friends!”

After pausing for a moment, Saint Harris continued, “Strange, I heard that it was you, Corbin Green, who repeatedly rejected Chad Wilson's conditions, causing everyone to be unable to enter Chaos Grave. I thought you were close friends with Ethan Smith, deliberately buying time for him!”

Upon hearing this, Corbin Green's face darkened.

He snorted coldly, didn't say a word, and walked away.

Watching Corbin Green walk away, Saint Harris spat.

“That odd, unpleasant little man, I'll deal with him sooner or later!” Saint Harris swore under his breath.

After Corbin Green left, Saint Harris patted Ethan Smith on the shoulder and said with a smile, “Mr. Smith, I won't disturb your moment anymore, but don't forget our agreement, it's settled then.”

Before Ethan Smith could decline, Saint Harris had already taken off running.

After Saint Harris left, the ancient saintess said with a smile, “Mr. Smith, shall we share a drink?”

Ethan Smith didn't refuse, and they both sat down at the stone table.

Looking at the grand ceremony, Ethan Smith couldn't help but sigh, “Honestly, I haven't heard much about the Hodge family. Even though they're one of the Monohorse Hall, compared to the other eight, they seem not quite as…”

He didn't finish speaking, but the message was clear.

The ancient saintess took a sip of wine, and then laughed, “Yes, the Hodge family comparatively keeps a low profile, but their strength is the most mysterious.”

“I see.” Ethan Smith nodded.

To his surprise, the ancient saintess asked, “Seeing what? How did you come to that conclusion?”

Ethan Smith joked, “Anthony Hodge is praised as the foremost among the younger generation and was the first to become a True Saint, sufficiently testifying to the Hodge family's power.”

Pursuing this point, Ethan Smith glanced around the small world, “What shocked me even more was this small world, which is almost exactly the same as the outside world, not at all like a manmade artifact but more like a natural creation.”

The ancient saintess's eyes twinkled, she stared at Ethan Smith, and said, “Mr. Smith, this small world, was indeed created by the ancestors of the Hodge family, later generations called him Emperor Hodge.”

Ethan Smith responded with a simple 'Oh', not thinking too much about it.

But the saintess's next words caused Ethan Smith's expression to subtly change.

She looked at Ethan Smith and continued, “Mr. Smith, have you ever wondered, who created the Holy Region?”

Ethan Smith opened his mouth, commenting, “Are you suggesting that the Holy Region was also man-made?”

“I don't know.” The saintess shook her head, “This is just my guess. It's said that once one becomes an Immortal Emperor, they surpass existing dao techniques, creating their own technique of heaven and earth. If that's the case, after they created their own technique of heaven and earth, could they also create a new world?”

Ethan Smith's eyes widened. At this moment, his mind was filled with thousands of thoughts, numerous ideas flashing in his mind like golden light!

“Immortal Emperors have surpassed existing dao techniques, which means… the dao techniques of the Holy Region or even for the universe could have been created by some Immortal Emperor?” Ethan Smith murmured, his astonished expression revealing everything.
