Chapter 1417 -1417: Sect Master’s Worries

He looked at Ethan Smith with a cold gaze, his face carrying a complex expression.

“You’ve come at just the right time; I have something to say to you.” Ethan Smith stood up and said.

The sect master raised his eyebrows and said, “You have something to say to me? What, are you trying to beg for mercy?”

Ethan Smith ignored the remark and continued, “The reason your son came up to me and boasted was ninety-nine percent due to Mr. Snider.”

The sect master was startled and continued, “Why do you say that?”

Ethan Smith calmly analyzed, “Because the person who benefits the most from the deterioration of our relationship is him.”

The sect master remained silent. In fact, he had long suspected Mr. Snider but had no evidence.

“If it weren’t for the many things you’ve done causing damage to the Cloud Sect, I wouldn’t want to kill you.” The sect master said coldly.

Ethan Smith waved his hand and said, “It’s useless to say anything at this point, but you may not necessarily be able to kill me.”

The sect master furrowed his brows and said, “You’re already a prisoner, yet you still dare to be so bold? Killing you is as simple as flicking my wrist.”

Ethan Smith laughed, “Sect master, I can see you’re not only powerful but quite scheming too, saying you have foresight wouldn’t be an exaggeration.”

The sect master said indifferently, “What, are you trying to flatter me?”

“If flattering you would work, I would have done it long ago,” Ethan Smith said.

“And, can you not interrupt me when I’m talking?”

Seeing Ethan Smith’s attitude, the sect master couldn’t help but be both amused and annoyed.

He had never seen a prisoner with such an attitude.

“Go on,” the sect master said.

Ethan Smith sneered, “As you said, if you wanted to kill me, you could do it anytime. Even if you wanted to announce it to the world, you wouldn’t need three days.”

“What are you waiting for during these three days?” Ethan Smith asked.

“Waiting? What do you think I’m waiting for?” The sect master narrowed his eyes and said.

Ethan Smith said lightly, “You’re waiting to see if someone will come to plead or ask you to release someone in these few days.”

As soon as these words came out, the sect master’s face suddenly changed dramatically!

Just as Ethan Smith said, he had been suspecting that Ethan had some kind of powerful background.

During this time, he tried to investigate Ethan’s background but found nothing.

For the future of the Cloud Sect, he dared not hastily kill Ethan Smith, lest he brought devastating disaster to the Cloud Sect.

After all, there were many more powerful forces in the Holy Region than the Cloud Sect.

“You’re being so cautious because, if I’m not mistaken, you must know some news.” Ethan Smith said.

The sect master didn’t say anything, waiting for Ethan Smith to continue.

Ethan Smith raised an eyebrow, “Let me guess what news you got.”

“Hmm… Is it because the princess from the Taylor family is my fellow villager? Are you afraid I know her?” Ethan Smith grinned, revealing a mouthful of white teeth.

As soon as these words came out, the sect master’s face became even more unsightly.

He was both shocked and angry – shocked that Ethan Smith had seen through his thoughts, and angry that Ethan seemed fearless.

“It seems I guessed correctly,” Ethan Smith said, narrowing his eyes.

“You care about your son, but it seems you care more about the Cloud Sect.”

The sect master looked coldly at Ethan Smith, not saying a word, as if still waiting for something.

Seeing this, Ethan Smith didn’t say anything more either. He struggled to get up from the ground, leaned against the wall, and said, “I won’t waste time talking to you, I’ll just tell you straight, what you’re worried about is all true, not only do I know Emily Taylor, but she’s also my wife.”

“Your wife?”

Upon hearing this, the sect master almost burst out laughing.

“If she’s your wife, why wouldn’t she care about you? Besides, if she’s your wife, why would she have you stay in the Southern Province?” The sect master sneered.

Ethan Smith countered, “Of course you would think that way since you’ve protected your son so well that he knows nothing about the outside world.”

These words were clearly a sarcastic remark aimed at the Cloud Sect master while also reminding him.

The sect master’s face suddenly turned extremely unsightly.

He stared coldly at Ethan Smith and said, “You may know the princess from the Taylor family, but I don’t believe your words.”

Having said that, the sect master turned and prepared to leave.

However, after walking no more than two steps, he stopped and said, “The execution will continue as planned in two days; if you really have a connection with the Taylor family, I believe they’ll come and save you.”

After leaving these words, the sect master didn’t look back and left the place.

Ethan Smith became increasingly anxious and angry, couldn’t help but curse, “This bastard, he just left like that!”

Ethan Smith had intended to scare him, but he didn’t expect him to play this extreme tactic.

In this situation, Ethan Smith was truly in a dilemma.

While he had the token in his hand, he didn’t want to use it at all.

Ethan Smith, who currently only had the nascent soul realm and didn’t even have spiritual power in his body, felt too ashamed to ask Emily Taylor for help.

“Damn it!” Ethan Smith couldn’t help but grit his teeth.

Kingsley Kelley said at the side, “Master, since you know Emily Taylor, why don’t you call them over? It’s better than waiting for death.”

Ethan Smith remained silent. After pondering for a moment, he leaned against the wall and muttered, “Let’s see, maybe things will change.”

…

In the following days.

The sect master didn’t show up again, and there was no turning point in the situation.

In the blink of an eye, it was the day of the execution.

On this day, early in the morning, Ethan Smith was taken out of the sky prison and brought to the largest training ground of the Cloud Sect.

There were already many people standing here, waiting to watch the show.

Ethan Smith was led all the way to the execution platform, where he was bound tightly and couldn’t move.

“Tsk, tsk, Ethan Smith eventually fell into the hands of the Cloud Sect.”

“Yeah, you can’t have a good outcome going against the Cloud Sect.”

“I heard the sect master personally captured him.”

Hearing the surrounding comments, Ethan Smith’s face became increasingly ugly.

He wanted to crush the token, but found that his hands were already immobile and couldn’t touch the token at all.

“Damn it…” Ethan Smith couldn’t help but grit his teeth.

Up above, the sect master looked at the First Elder.

“You will personally execute him.” The sect master said to the First Elder.

The reason for this arrangement was out of concern that the First Elder would damage his moral integrity due to Ethan Smith’s case, causing his progress to stagnate.

The First Elder naturally understood the sect master’s intentions and hurriedly bowed and said, “Thank you, sect master!”

Afterwards, the First Elder arrived in front of Ethan Smith with a tremor of his foot.

He stared at Ethan Smith with gritted teeth and said, “You damn little beast, I told you, I’ll personally slaughter you…”
