Chapter 840: Chapter 840: Two Martial Saints!
Daphne Green pondered and said, “Well, since they jointly host the Exchange eting, they naturally know each other well.”
“But… as to whether they have good relations, I can’t say for certain. To be accurate, there’s really no clear divide between good or bad relationships.”
“What do you an?” Ethan Smith asked.
Daphne Green explained: “For each aristocratic family, their primary concern is their own interest.”
“Moreover, there are only so many resources in the world. Even the resources in the Mystic Realm, simply put, are plundered from the human realm.”
“Therefore, on the surface, everything seems harmonious among the great families, but, in reality, they are covertly in rivalry, competing against each other.”
...
Ethan Smith narrowed his eyes slightly and sneered, “In other words, as long as the profit is substantial, they can beco enemies too?”
“Correct, any family is like that.” Daphne Green nodded.
“I understand now.” Ethan Smith nodded.
“Ethan Smith, if you really want to enter the Exchange eting, I can help you get a slot as an apology.” Daphne Green stood up and said.
Ethan Smith laughed, “No need for that. That would be sufficient as long as you don’t covet Emily Taylor.”
Daphne Green gave a bitter smile, “How could I covet Emily…”
“Alright, I won’t keep you if there’s nothing else. I have so business to take care of.” Ethan Smith stood up and said.
After Daphne Green left, Ethan Smith took out his mobile phone and called Pierce Carroll.
After the call connected, Ethan Smith said, “Mr. Carroll, I have a matter I’d like to discuss with you face-to-face, just the two of us.”
Pierce Carroll on the other end hesitated for a mont, but finally agreed.
…
This conversation lasted an entire day.
Ethan Smith left in the morning and didn’t return until evening.
For the next two days, Ethan Smith stayed in the Martial Arts Academy.
He prepared countless Dharma Treasures in the academy to use during the Exchange eting.
Before they knew it, the day of the Exchange eting arrived.
On this clear morning, Ethan Smith stood at the entrance of the Martial Arts Academy, waiting for Pierce Carroll.
Ten minutes later, a rcedes-Benz van stopped at the door.
“Mr. Smith, please get in the car.” Pierce Carroll smiled.
Ethan Smith nodded slightly at him and got into the car.
The car slowly drove off, and in the blink of an eye, it left Capital City and arrived at a secluded, uninhabited place.
At this mont, many people were already standing here.
Among them were Daphne Green, Ricardo Bowman, and Blaise Rhodes.
In addition to them, there were several elders whom Ethan Smith did not know.
They seed to have an otherworldly aura and were likely Masters specializing in certain fields.
After Ethan Smith got out of the car, he walked towards Daphne Green and the others.
“Ethan Smith?” Seeing Ethan, everyone was sowhat surprised.
Seeing Ethan Smith approach, Tyler Wright took a step forward and scoffed, “What are you doing here? Didn’t I tell you, I won’t give you a slot.”
“I invited him here.” Pierce Carroll said from the side.
Tyler Wright imdiately put on a pretentious appearance and said, “Mr. Carroll, what do you an by this? This kid is my enemy.”
Pierce Carroll smiled faintly, “He may be your enemy, but he is not mine. Ethan Smith is a top Pill master, naturally, he should participate in the Exchange eting.”
Tyler Wright snorted lightly, there was a hint of excitent hidden beneath his displeased expression.
“Ethan Smith, how do you know Pierce Carroll?” Daphne Green asked with so surprise.
Ethan Smith casually brushed her off, “He ca to find . Before that, I didn’t know him.”
“Wow, impressive.” Blaise Rhodes muttered.
Ethan Smith stayed quiet, he closed his eyes slightly and quietly waited for the opening of the Mystic Realm.
About half an hour later, a light began to flicker in front of everyone.
Then, an entrance appeared out of nowhere.
Two n erged from this Mystic Realm.
“Is this everyone?” Seeing the few people present, the two n seed a bit surprised.
Tyler Wright nodded, “Yeah, this is the first Exchange eting after all, it’s not convenient to have too many participants.”
The two n didn’t say much more, they agreed and said, “Alright, follow us in.”
A group of people, following behind these two, walked boldly into the Mystic Realm.
The mont they stepped into the Mystic Realm, the entrance disappeared.
Just as they entered the Mystic Realm, a strange aura hit them.
This aura did not feel like qi, but more like a musty sll.
“What is this sll?” Not just Ethan Smith noticed this strange scent, but the other individuals did as well.
Tyler Wright glanced at them and said, “This is an abandoned Mystic Realm, there aren’t any resources left, not even a single dog bone.”
“After all, you are outsiders. Who can be sure that none of you harbor ill intentions.”
This naturally caused discontent among the rest, especially Blaise Rhodes who coldly retorted, “Are all of you from the Mystic Realm so arrogant?”
Tyler Wright shot a glance at Blaise Rhodes, but said nothing more.
Although they ca from the Mystic Realm, they did not wish to provoke these rich scions of the secular world.
“The Exchange eting will be held in three hours in the palace ahead.” Tyler Wright pointed ahead and said.
“You can start preparing.”
Everyone said nothing, they simply headed towards the location of the palace.
The group arrived at the palace.
This palace was equally decrepit, with ruin and fragnts scattered everywhere.
Just as Tyler Wright had said, this Mystic Realm had been utterly abandoned. Forget about qi, even the trees were nearly withered.
At this mont in this palace, many people had already set up their booths for exchange.
“Are these people all from the Mystic Realm?” Ethan Smith asked in confusion.
Daphne Green nodded slightly and said, “They should be.”
At a glance, there were at least dozens of people in attendance.
The vast number indeed caused Ethan Smith so surprise.
“Are there actually so many Mystic Realms in this world?” Ethan Smith furrowed his brows.
Daphne Green explained: “Actually, the Mystic Realm isn’t as mysterious as you imagine, many people shuttle back and forth between the Mystic Realm and the human realm, so even regard the Mystic Realm as their ho.”
Ethan Smith nodded, showing his understanding.
Then, Ethan Smith unfurled his divine sense.
Suddenly, he detected two unfamiliar energies!
This energy was exactly the sa as what Ethan Smith encountered in the Second Secret Realm!
“Martial Saint?!” Fear flashed across Ethan Smith’s face.
Tyler Wright standing at the side snickered: “Did you sense it? Now that you’re here, I have no problem telling you, our Wright Family has dispatched two Martial Saints!”
“Did you really think Pierce Carroll appreciated your talent? What a joke! That was rely my strategy, designed to lure you into the Mystic Realm and eliminate you!”
