Mrs. and Mr. Smith

F{h*F5#+LjChapter 861: The Olive Branch from the Senior Officials_1

Ethan Smith took control, sitting in the chair with a sneer and said, “Let’s talk.”

From the shadows, the voices of the high-level executives emerged.

“Ethan Smith, you don’t have a deep grudge with the Capital City Martial Arts Association.”

“Our goal in setting up the Capital City Martial Arts Association was to recruit talents.”

Ethan tapped the tabletop and said, “Keep talking.”

“Now, the Capital City Martial Arts Association has been disturbed by you, losing many talents, which is no longer consistent with our original intentions.”

“As you can see, the Capital City Martial Arts Association is in urgent need of a leader.”

“If you’re willing, we’d like you to be the leader.”

Hearing their words, Ethan couldn’t help but laugh.

“Make me a leader?” Ethan raised his eyebrows and asked.

“Does that mean that I will have control over the Capital City Martial Arts Association from now on?”

“Correct,” the high-level executives responded affirmatively.

“By then, you will be the one leading the martial arts world.”

“This should be your dream, right?”

Ethan narrowed his eyes, glanced at the eight empty seats, and sneered, “You think my purpose in doing all this is to lead the martial arts world?”

“Otherwise? Your ultimate goal is to replace us, right?” one of the high-level executives laughed.

“Ethan Smith, there are no eternal enemies, only eternal interests.”

“With our help, it’s just a matter of time before you become a Martial Saint.”

Hearing this, Ethan burst into laughter.

“What are you laughing at?” a high-level executive asked in a deep voice.

Ethan sneered, “I just find you all ridiculous.”

“A leader? In plain terms, I’m just a puppet for you, and you can kick me out at any time.”

“Moreover, you should prefer obedient people, right? Unfortunately, I’ve never been obedient since I was a child.”

“As for leading the martial arts world as you said… it’s worthless in my eyes, and it has never been my goal.”

Hearing Ethan’s words, the high-level executives fell silent.

“What do you want?” one of the high-level executives asked.

Ethan’s eyes shifted and said, “How about this? In order to show your sincerity, you can first tell me how to remove the spirit binding technique. What do you think?”

The high-level executives said solemnly, “The spirit binding technique is just a trivial technique that we can give to you at any time.”

“Don’t waste time then, and tell me quickly,” Ethan said, standing up.

There was a moment of silence from the high-level executives.

After a while, one of them spoke, “We can give you the spirit binding technique, but you have to agree to one condition.”

“Go ahead.” Ethan nodded.

“You have to go to the Second Secret Realm and accept our technique,” one high-level executive said.

Ethan raised his eyebrows and sneered, “Your technique? A technique for controlling me, right? Like Ms. Hayward? If I disobey, I can be wiped out at any moment?”

“Exactly,” the high-level executive didn’t hide the truth.

“We must have some control over you; this is also a way to show your loyalty.”

Ethan raised his eyebrows and thought for a moment, then said, “I have other conditions.”

“Speak,” the high-level executive said solemnly.

Ethan sneered, “I want the Second Secret Realm. I want to be its master.”

This instantly silenced all the high-level executives.

For several minutes, none of them spoke.

Ethan sneered, “What, you don’t agree?”

“Luke Fraley, the master of the Second Secret Realm, is a peak form Martial Saint; if you step into Martial Saint, we will consider it,” one of the high-level executives said solemnly.

Ethan laughed, “Stepping into Martial Saint is a matter of time, why hurry?”

“Moreover, once I step into Martial Saint, do I still need you?”

The high-level executives were silent, seemingly agreeing with Ethan’s point.

“We can give you the Second Secret Realm, as long as you accept our technique,” the high-level executive continued.

Ethan couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows.

He never expected the high-level executives to agree!

Ethan thought about it and said, “What if I don’t accept your technique? After all, I don’t like being restricted.”

“Not accept the technique?” The high-level executives’ voices were filled with doubt.

After a short while, a woman’s voice came out, “Fine, we’ll agree.”@@novelbin@@

“You agree?” Ethan was even more surprised.

“Of course, after all, we have always cherished talent,” the woman’s voice came again.

Ethan touched his chin and said, “From now on, you must not target Emily Taylor.”

“We can promise that,” they continued to agree.

Hearing this, Ethan couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

“Do you think I’m a fool? You want to trick me into the Second Secret Realm and then kill me?” Ethan laughed.

“Don’t think I don’t know that as soon as I enter the Second Secret Realm, the Martial Saints will act quickly to get rid of me!”

An executive said coldly, “Ethan Smith, we have no such intention.”

“Go fuck yourself! You think I’m an idiot?” Ethan mocked.

“You can abandon your own people at any time, let alone someone who opposes you?”

“Ethan Smith!” The high-level executives seemed to be angered by Ethan.

“You’re really shameless!”

Ethan sneered, “Let me tell you this, I have set my sights on the Second Secret Realm, and I want it.”

“Around next year, I’ll personally go to the Secret Realm, kill Luke Fraley, and dominate the Second Secret Realm!”

“I hope to see you all in the Second Secret Realm next year.”

After leaving these words, Ethan got up and prepared to leave.

“Ethan Smith, you’ll regret this!” a voice came out.

“You’ll pay for your disrespect towards us!”

“Not only will we kill you, but we’ll also divide Emily Taylor’s flesh and blood! We will lock her up in the cycle of reincarnation, unable to escape it forever!”

Ethan stopped in his tracks, his voice cold, “Let’s wait and see who has the last laugh.”

“Good, good! Next year will be the day of your death!” The cold voice of the high-level executives came.

Ethan couldn’t be bothered to deal with them anymore. He left the meeting room and stood in the office of the Capital City Martial Arts Association.

Immediately afterward, Ethan’s feet shook, and a terrifying force spread out from under his feet.

“Rumble…”

The entire Capital City Martial Arts Association seemed to be experiencing an earthquake with earth-shattering vibrations!

The building started to collapse, and the office turned to rubble!

Within moments, the once-majestic Capital City Martial Arts Association had become a ruin!

Everyone passing by was shocked by this scene.

They took out their phones, hurriedly capturing the scene.

“Did the Capital City Martial Arts Association have an earthquake?”

“Bullshit, does an earthquake only shake one place? If I’m not mistaken, it must be undergoing renovations!”

“Renovations my ass, who renovates their house down to the foundation?”

As the onlookers discussed, Ethan walked out of the ruins.

He looked back at the vast Capital City Martial Arts Association with cold eyes and stretched out his palm.

Golden light flickered on his palm as a golden hand shot out, smashing towards the ruined Capital City Martial Arts Association!

The entire Capital City Martial Arts Association was completely reduced to dust!
