Mrs. and Mr. Smith

Chapter 1048: Chapter 1048: The Fraley Family Mobilizes Troops Chapter 1048: Chapter 1048: The Fraley Family Mobilizes Troops That strand of divine sense returned to each person’s main body.

But they were still in a trance, with a touch of blankness in their eyes.

“What… what’s the origin of this scroll? What is the world in the painting?” Ethan Smith was the first to recover.

The Crane, with his hands behind his back, said lightly, “I don’t know what exactly the world in the picture is, but I know it’s an even more vast world.”

At this point, the Crane walked up to Ethan Smith, and with a semi-smile, said, “The Taylor family you’ve been longing for is here.”

Ethan Smith’s pupil shrank suddenly upon hearing this!

“What did you just say? The Taylor family is in this painting?” Ethan Smith asked hurriedly.

Crane: “… Your understanding ability, I suggest you go back to the drawing board.”

Ethan Smith quickly waved his hand and said, “I was too impatient and got confused. Are you saying that the Taylor family is in this world? Where exactly is this world?”

“I have no idea where exactly.” The Crane shook his head.

“But I know there are abundant aristocratic families and numerous experts in this world. It’s more inclusive, so we don’t need to hide in the demon city.” Crane said.

Ethan Smith recalled what the executives of the Capital City Martial Arts Association had said.

They said that Ethan would eventually leave this world to explore a broader universe.

Not only that, but they could also provide conditions for Ethan.

At the time, Ethan didn’t think much about it, but now that he pondered, it seemed like there was some hidden meaning in their words.

“Lord Crane, how does this relate to your assistance to Ethan?” Oxen asked, extremely puzzled.

Before the Crane could speak, Ethan guessed, “To enter this world, one probably needs to pass through the Second Mystic Realm, or the Paramount Mystic Realm, right?”

A streak of surprise flashed through the Crane’s eyes, and he said jokingly, “You’re not as dumb as I thought.”

“Screw you.” Ethan Smith rolled his eyes.

“What Ethan said is correct. No one knows exactly where this world is.” The Crane said seriously.

“Perhaps it’s another planet or a different star field. With our level of cultivation, we cannot traverse the starry sky yet, so we cannot speculate.”

“But I know one method is to use an Ancient Array Platform, which is in the Paramount Mystic Realm.”

“The Ancient Array Platform?” Ethan Smith rubbed his chin.

Everyone felt quite unfamiliar with this term.

The Crane nodded and said, “Therefore, if you want to find this array platform, you must pass through the Paramount Mystic Realm.”

“To be honest, before you showed up, I had never considered traversing the void and going to this world because the Capital City Martial Arts Association is too gigantic.”

“But now, I’ve changed my mind.”

Ethan Smith also nodded slightly.

He had already wanted to destroy the Capital City Martial Arts Association and the eight senior officials.

Hearing Crane’s words now only firmed Ethan’s determination even more.

“In other words, if I want to see Emily Taylor, I must pass through the Paramount Mystic Realm…” Ethan Smith muttered softly.

The Crane had his hands behind his back. He bent down his slender body and whispered in Ethan’s ear, “Of course, that’s only one of the reasons. The other reason I agreed to help you was because you called me ‘big brother’.”

“Screw you.” Ethan Smith immediately scooted several meters away.

“Hahaha!” Seeing Ethan’s expression, the Crane couldn’t help but laugh heartily.

After that, the Crane looked at everyone and said, “Pass down the order, we will set off for Pyro in three days.”

“Yes!” Oxen and others all saluted, not questioning at all.

Ethan finally relaxed.

The strength of these demonic beasts was much stronger than that of ordinary human cultivators.

With their help, Ethan’s chances of winning naturally spike straight up.

In the next few days, Oxen personally led the team to select people, preparing for the trip to Pyro.

Whereas Ethan Smith spent every day with the Crane, drinking and having fun, almost becoming an alcoholic.

But it has to be said, those days of being drunk were the most relaxed moments in Ethan’s life.

He nearly forgot all his worries, both body and mind in an extremely relaxed state.

While Ethan was indulging in drinking and merriment, a mishap took place in Heaven Gate.

In the Second Mystic Realm, Luke Fraley had prepared hundreds of people, ready to attack Heaven Gate!

Looking at the hundreds of warriors standing in front of him, Luke sneered repeatedly.

“Do they really think the Second Mystic Realm is a walk in the park!” Luke said coldly.

“Since you, Ethan Smith, have declared war on me, naturally I have the right to invade you, and… without any scruples!”

At this moment, Lord Star walked over.

His condition was still deteriorating, with only less than two-tenths of his strength recovered, looking extremely weak.

“Let me lead the team, as a way to atone for my past mistakes…” Lord Star hesitantly suggested.

Luke patted Star on the shoulder and said, “You should rest well. I will send someone else to lead the team.”

Lord Star hurriedly said, “I can still manage. Let me lead the team, I promise I will complete the task this time!”

Luke sighed softly, “Lord Star, do you really think you are fit to lead a team in your current physical condition?”

“But… I am the General of the Second Mystic Realm!” Lord Star said softly.

His words were meant as his desire to contribute to the Second Mystic Realm.

But in Luke’s ears, it sounded like he was protecting his own authority.

Although Luke’s face didn’t change much, he was a little upset deep down.

“You should rest well. This battle will be led by Darian Carter.” Luke said.

As he was speaking, Darian Carter came over from not far away.

Darian held quite a high position in the Second Mystic Realm. Although it was not as high as Lord Star’s, he was still one of Luke’s most trusted personnel.

Most importantly, he was a Martial Saint! His strength was beyond imagination!

“Lord Star, leave this battle to me,” Darian said cheerfully.

Lord Star gritted his teeth and said, “Darian, if this battle is not led by me, the damage will definitely be more severe!”

Everyone was very displeased with his words.

Luke even scoffed and said, “What, the Second Secret Realm can’t function without you?”

“That’s not what I mean… Ethan Smith will definitely not show mercy to Darian!” Lord Star hurriedly explained.

Lord Star was very familiar with Ethan Smith’s strength.

It was not only Darian, even he himself was no match for Ethan Smith!

The reason he was able to come back was because Ethan wanted to win him over!

But if Darian led the team, Ethan would definitely go on a killing spree!

The more he explained, the messier it got.

Luke couldn’t help but scoff, “So, Ethan Smith has feelings for you?”

“That’s not what I mean…” Lord Star tried to explain, but was cut off by Luke’s wave of his hand.

“Darian, I’ll give you another five hundred men. You will lead a thousand men and flatten Heaven Gate!” Luke ordered loudly.

Darian saluted, “Please rest assured, Patriarch, I promise to complete the mission!”

“Depart!” Luke commanded loudly.
