Mrs. and Mr. Smith

Chapter 435: 435: Dudley Lynch in Central Plains

The Great Saint Sect had mobilized five Grandmasters just to arrest a person without any significant abilities!

This was enough to show the importance Kylan Taylor attached to the matter! And the person to be arrested must not be a simple one!

“Remember, follow my orders in all matters. No one should treat this lightly.” Kamden Lee instructed.

“Yes, Mr. Lee.” The crowd hurriedly nodded in agreement.

After Ethan Smith hung up the phone, he prepared to leave for Sea City.

He had heard many rumors about Sea City.

It was purportedly an economically developed area with elegantly dressed young men everywhere.

Although it wasn’t as mystifying as the Capital City, it was an international metropolis attracting countless foreigners.

Just as Ethan Smith was getting ready to leave, William Richardson’s car hurriedly pulled up.

Upon the car’s stop, Clare Richardson came running in with an element of panic, followed closely by William Richardson.

Upon seeing Ethan Smith, Clare urgently asked, “How are you? Are you alright? I heard a lot of people want to kill you, why are you still here?”

She raised multiple questions and for a moment, Ethan was unsure how to respond.

“I talked to my dad, he suggested you go to the Chuzzle Battle Zone. No matter how brave they are, they wouldn’t dare to kill in the battle zone!” Clare said in a serious manner.

Ethan chuckled bitterly, “That won’t be necessary, I won’t be in any trouble.”

“Ethan Smith, Clare made a good point. Commander Wood had also specifically discussed this matter with me.” William Richardson added on the side.

Ethan turned towards William and politely replied, “Mr. Richardson, it’s really not necessary, I can take care of myself.”

As he spoke, Ethan noticed a strange fluctuation in Clare’s aura.

Her body seemed to be tinged with an extremely primordial aura.

This kind of aura clearly did not belong to this era.

Although it was faint, it was still caught by Ethan’s keen sense.

“Clare, did you wear that mask… ?” Ethan asked.

Clare nodded, “Yes, I did, but every time I wear it, it feels a bit weird.”

“Weird?” Ethan raised his eyebrows, waiting for Clare to continue.

Clare said, “I can’t describe that feeling, anyway it’s very weird. Don’t bother about me, you better think about what you should do.”

Seeing that he could not shake Clare off, Ethan seriously replied, “Alright, if anything really happens, I promise to tell you immediately and agree to go to the battle zone for safety, okay?”

“Who knows when they’ll strike.” Clare muttered.

Ethan continued to smile bitterly.

This kid, she was really tough to fool.

“Okay, I have already found a solution, but it’s a secret for now.” Ethan could only lie.

Luckily, Clare was still quite naive. She looked at Ethan with a half-doubtful expression and asked, “Are you telling the truth?”

“Of course, why would I joke about my own life?” Ethan replied.

“Fine then, if it really doesn’t work out, I’ll ask my dad to send a team over for you.” Clare suggested quietly.

Ethan couldn’t help but smile ruefully. Clare really had big ideas.

“Alright, don’t worry about me. I have something to do, I need to leave for a while.” Ethan waved his hand and said.

“Mr. Richardson, I won’t be able to accompany you.”

William Richardson nodded, “Hmm, just be careful in everything you do.”

Without saying more, Ethan greeted everyone and hurriedly left.

Sea City Airport.

Ethan took out his mobile phone and called Evelyn Norton, saying, “I have arrived in Sea City.”

It was evening by then, and Evelyn responded on the phone, “I am waiting for you at the First Restaurant.”

Without further words, Ethan immediately took a taxi towards the First Restaurant.

In the restaurant.

Evelyn Norton was sitting in a not so conspicuous spot, but there were still quite a few people surrounding her.

“Miss, could I get your contact details?”

“I would like to invite you for a drink, do you have time, Miss?”

There was even someone who got straight to the point, “I have ten properties and five luxury cars under my name, eight-digit savings, would you like to chat?”

Faced with these flirtations, Evelyn was clearly all too accustomed.

However, she never agreed nor rejected, always maintaining an approachable yet distant demeanor.

Upon seeing Ethan, Evelyn smiled and said, “I am sorry, my friend is here.”

Everyone turned to look at Ethan. Although their hearts were a bit resentful, they knew when to back off.

After sitting down, Ethan jokingly remarked, “Miss Norton seems to enjoy basking in this attention.”

Evelyn shrugged, “Who doesn’t want to be popular?”

Ethan sat there half-joking and half-serious, “Your future boyfriend might have a tough time.”

Just then, Ethan suddenly noticed, Evelyn had unknowingly stepped into the Grandmaster Realm.

“Does it seem strange?” Before Ethan could ask, Evelyn laughed and said.

Only then did Ethan remember, Evelyn could read people’s thoughts.

“Not really.” Ethan shook his head and then asked seriously, “Miss Norton, why did you suddenly come to Sea City?”

Evelyn did not hide anything. She laughed, “There is a luxurious cruise setting sail for Brightheart Island from Sea City tomorrow. I couldn’t miss this opportunity.”

“Brightheart Island? For a vacation?” Ethan asked.

“For them it’s vacation, but not for me.” Evelyn replied casually.

Ethan was a bit puzzled, “Could it be… there are treasures on BrightHeart Island?”

Evelyn pointed to Ethan’s dantian and smiled, “The inner core that you consumed was obtained from Brightheart Island.”

On hearing this, Ethan was visibly shocked.

The effect of that Demonic Beast Core was beyond imagination!

Even compared to top-tier herbs, it was not inferior at all!

“What conditions are needed to go to BrightHeart Island?” Ethan asked eagerly.

“An invitation.” Evelyn said.

After saying that, she had two invitations in her hand.

Ethan subconsciously reached out to take the invitation, but Evelyn pulled back her hand at that moment.

She seemed a bit regretful as she said, “Mr. Smith, I’m sorry, this invitation has already been given to someone else.”

“Who did you give it to?” Ethan frowned slightly.

Evelyn nodded, “Dudley Lynch.”

“Dudley Lynch? The Central Plains’ Dudley Lynch?” There was a faint displeasure on Ethan’s face.

Dudley Lynch of Central Plains had always been the first person in Pyro’s martial arts potential list.

Even at Ethan’s peak, he had consistently been ranked beneath Dudley on the list.

“I can see that Miss Norton joined forces not only with me.” Ethan took back his hand, with a half-smile on his face.
