Chapter 1197: Chapter 1197: Another Ancient Array Platform Chapter 1197: Chapter 1197: Another Ancient Array Platform The woman didn’t waste any words and led Ethan Smith to her “best friend” right away.
This was a woman about sixty years old, who looked quite aged.
“Adele, this young man wants to find the Jade Bodhisattva,” the woman said as they walked.
Hearing the three words “Jade Bodhisattva,” the woman called Adele flashed a surprised look in her eyes.
She looked up and down at Ethan Smith and exclaid, “You … you look so much like the Jade Bodhisattva, as if you were carved from the sa mold!”
Ethan had seen his mother’s portrait and indeed bore so resemblance to her.
“She is my mother,” Ethan didn’t hide the truth.
The surprise on Adele’s face deepened even more.
She reached out and touched Ethan’s face, saying, “When the Jade Bodhisattva gave birth to a baby boy back then, we all thought he had died. I didn’t expect… you’ve grown up so much.”
Ethan hurriedly asked, “Auntie, do you know where my mother went?”
At this question, Adele took out her smoking pipe.
She sighed and said, “This is a long story.”
“In those days, your mother was a famous village beauty, beautiful and kind-hearted, and thus was called Jade Bodhisattva.”
“Later, a young man from another village ca to our village. He was very handso and tall, and soon he fell in love with your mother. In retrospect, that young man should be your father.”
Ethan nodded slightly, waiting for her to continue.
“But I don’t know why, suddenly one day your father left without saying goodbye, and rumors spread throughout the village.”
“In the village, the most terrible thing is rumors. During that ti, your mother cried all day long, almost breaking her spine.”
Hearing this, Ethan’s face looked even worse.
For a mont, he was full of hatred for his father, who abandoned his wife and child so irresponsibly.
“Since then, your mother beca sowhat paranoid. So said she was bewitched, while others thought she fell seriously ill from excessive grief,” Adele continued.
“Until one day, on a night of thunder and lightning, several people wearing black robes suddenly ca to our village.”
Ethan’s face changed, and he quickly looked at Adele, waiting for her to continue.
“At that ti, I slept with your mother every day to comfort her, but … but I was too scared to say anything when your mother was taken away that day. I just secretly followed behind…” Adele sighed, seeming sowhat self-blaming.
Ethan hurriedly said, “Auntie, it’s not your fault. You just need to tell where those people took her!”
Adele opened her mouth and sighed, “You may not believe , but I saw with my own eyes that those people took your mother and suddenly disappeared.”
“Disappeared?” Ethan frowned.
Adele nodded and said, “I reported it to the village, but they didn’t believe and thought I was talking nonsense. Eventually, the matter slowly faded away.”
Ethan was silent for a mont before asking, “Auntie, where did they disappear? Do you rember?”
“I rember it well, at the back of the village,” Adele responded.
Ethan quickly bowed and requested, “Please take there to have a look.”
Without saying much, Adele slowly stood up and led Ethan Smith out of the house.
The two passed through the village and arrived at the backside of the village.
Here, it was wasteland with weeds growing everywhere.
Adele led Ethan to a pile of weeds and stopped.
She pointed to the weeds in front of her and said, “It’s been years, but I rember it’s roughly this spot.”
Without saying a word, Ethan walked over and pulled apart the weeds with his bare hands.
Underneath the weeds, there was an Ancient Array Platform!
“How can this be?!” Ethan’s face turned pale imdiately!
An Ancient Array Platform? So they left through the Ancient Array Platform?
Could it be… his mother had been taken to the Holy Region?
Ethan touched the platform with his hand and saw that it was engraved with complicated characters.
These characters were very strange, and Ethan couldn’t understand any of them.
As for the flags inserted around, they were long decayed, nearly weathered away.
“Auntie, are you sure my mother disappeared at this spot?” Ethan turned and looked at Adele.
Adele nodded, “I rember it clearly, it’s right here.”
Ethan took a deep breath, realizing why the prophet couldn’t find his mother’s location.
There was only one reason – his mother was not on this planet anymore.
“No, wait,” Ethan touched his chin.
Since she was not on this planet, then what did the dream on that day an? Trying to prevent Ethan from going to the Holy Region? And who sent the Inkstone?
It didn’t make sense to Ethan.
All clues seed to be cut off at this mont.
Ethan sat on the array platform and pondered for a long ti, and the more he thought, the stranger it felt.
The world didn’t seem as simple as he had imagined.
He thought he was the number one person in this world, but soone managed to silently send Ethan an Inkstone, placed right beside his pillow.
This was enough to prove that the person who did this had power far beyond Ethan’s.
“Wait, the scene in the Inkstone showed that my mother was locked in a dungeon…” Ethan murmured softly.
He looked at Adele and said solemnly, “Could Adele be lying? Or… this is not the Ancient Array Platform leading to the Holy Region?”
“Damn it.” Ethan felt like his head was about to explode with nurous questions swirling in his mind.
“Maybe I saw sothing wrong,” Adele waved her hand from the side.
Ethan hurriedly shook his head, “No, what you saw is all true.”
Adele sighed, and just as she was about to speak, Ethan suddenly saw a faint light rise from the ground in the distance.
“Hmm?” Ethan frowned slightly as he slowly stood up and looked at the light pillar in the distance.
“This is… Obadiah Heptinstall’s technique!” Ethan’s face changed dramatically!
Obadiah Heptinstall had actually restarted the Immortal Slaying Sect’s technique!
“Auntie, thank you for your help. I have sothing to deal with, so I have to leave first,” Ethan said hurriedly.
He left so money for Adele and hurried back.
After Ethan left, Adele’s face quickly darkened.
She wasn’t the least bit dejected anymore, and ice coldness replaced her previous deanor.
Adele took out her mobile phone and dialed a number.
“The Jade Bodhisattva’s son has co,” she said coldly.
“Oh? He can actually find this place?” A surprised voice ca from the other end of the phone.
“Well, don’t worry. I checked and found no spiritual power fluctuations in his body,” Adele spoke indifferently.
“As long as he’s Jade Bodhisattva’s son, he must be a chaotic body. If you have the chance, bring him with you,” the person on the phone said.
“Understood.” Adele hung up the phone.
