Mrs. and Mr. Smith - Chapter 2536 - : 2534: invitation
Chapter 2536: Chapter 2534: Invitation
“Who is this friend?”
Ethan Smith asked suspiciously.
“I’m West Hill from the Divine Will Sect.”
She laughed and introduced the mirror to Ethan Smith.
“This is the Chaos Sky-covering Mirror, our sect’s treasure. It can obscure heavenly secrets and even distort space and time. Not even Saints can track our location, allowing us to approach you without detection. However, it has limitations; it can accommodate only up to seven people, which is why we wish for Ethan Smith to accompany us as the last member.”
“Relying on a magical artifact to evade a Saint’s gaze is not so simple.”
Ethan Smith shook his head. He had just been to the world of Saints and knew how terrifying their power could be.
Even with such a heaven-defying artifact, it probably couldn’t escape the probing of a Sixth Rank Saint investigating this region.
“If you’re scared, just admit it. What’s the point of rambling on? Let’s go, let’s go, don’t waste time here.”
A slightly sharp voice said, sneering, from a youth of the Heavenly Genesis Sect.
“Caelan Russell, shut your mouth. Have you forgotten our mission this time?”
Another person from the Heavenly Genesis Sect, Li Yang, frowned and reprimanded.
Ethan Smith finally had the time to assess the cultivation of these people; there were four of Fifth Rank and two at the peak of Fourth Rank.
Moreover, by probing their Divine Soul waves, these individuals were also quite strong, certainly core disciples within their sects.
“I’m sorry, my friends, but I must ask you to go back. This is our first meeting, and I’m not familiar with any of you. As this Caelan said, I dare not accept this invitation.”
Ethan Smith said with a smile; he preferred to go alone rather than act with these people.
The reason was simple: in a battle of life and death, he couldn’t entrust his back to people he had just met.
Moreover, Caelan’s attack power was so strong; traveling with such a petty person was absurd.
“Indeed, as you said, relying solely on a magical artifact may not block a Saint’s gaze. But human cultivators also act across different regions, and when the high-tier of the different races are wounded, the worst outcome is just a fruitless return. If you worry about betrayal, we can swear on our Dao hearts that once we enter the Misty Forest, we will advance and retreat together, or else our cultivation will stagnate for life.”
Mysterious Heart pondered for a moment and then spoke again.
“Why insist on dragging me along?”
Ethan Smith had some liking toward this person from the Mysterious Sword Sect.
“This journey presents a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, planned for years. Originally, my little martial uncle Sword Frost was to accompany us, but he was seriously injured in the battle in the Holy Region against the different races, so we need someone to fill his position and sincerely invite Ethan Smith to join us.”
“Hey, Mysterious Heart, you’ve gone too far. Why reveal such secretive matters to him?”
Caelan Russell’s expression visibly showed discontent.
“Shut up!”
Li Yang couldn’t endure any longer, a piece of shroud flying into the air and sticking onto Caelan Russell’s mouth like a large sanitary pad.
“Furthermore, after things are settled, I can offer you a piece of Sky Soul Jade!”
Mysterious Heart hesitated for a moment and said softly.
Upon hearing about the Sky Soul Jade, the few people around immediately showed astonished expressions.
Though Ethan Smith didn’t know what it was, judging from these people’s expressions, it should be quite extraordinary.
“Accept it!”
A sudden loud shout exploded in Ethan Smith’s Sea of Knowledge, almost terrifying him to the point of wetting himself.
Emperor Yao gasped heavily, staring at Mysterious Heart from within the Coffin, as if looking at a beauty about to strip naked.
“Quickly accept! Obtain the Sky Soul Jade and I’ll solve three problems for you, no! Ten!”
Ethan Smith gasped; what exactly was this thing that an Immortal Emperor valued so highly?
“The Sky Soul Jade is a gemstone created from the refinement of Divine Souls upon the fall of Saints. It contains endless Divine Soul energy. Holding a Sky Soul Jade can rapidly restore and enhance your Divine Soul, with its core containing boundless divine power and wisdom, capable of fully restoring damaged Divine Souls and boosting extraordinary Divine Soul strength.”
West Hill seemed to notice Ethan Smith’s confusion and explained with a smile.
“Moreover, according to the records of my Divine Will Sect, in your Nine-lives Coffin are nine pieces of Sky Soul Jade. The Nine-lives Coffin was crafted using them as a foundation.”
“This time, aside from aiming to massively damage the different races, our Three Sects also have our tasks. The Misty Forest is closest to the Demonic Heavenly Path, containing numerous treasures yet also dangerous killing intent. I must inform you of this. Even with our power, there is risk of falling.”
Mysterious Heart explained again, telling Ethan Smith some truths.
“Alright, I agree.”
Ethan Smith finally understood why Emperor Yao was so urgent; perhaps having the Sky Soul Jade would extend the time Emperor Yao could exist in this world. No wonder he was so impatient.
“Fine, Ethan Smith, make arrangements on your side, and try not to let too many people know of your departure. This mission must remain confidential; we leave together at this time tomorrow.”
Mysterious Heart clasped his fists.
Ethan Smith nodded, watching the group of six leave.
“This journey seems complicated indeed, needing to recruit me to feel secure despite having four possessed with treasures of Fifth Rank. What kind of area is the Misty Forest really?”
Ethan Smith squinted his eyes, contemplating continuously.
His agreement stemmed from several reasons: one being the Sky Soul Jade that Emperor Yao needed urgently.
Additionally, his Witch Clan’s Curse Power also discovered that the Flame Demon was currently located within the Misty Forest’s coordinates.
If he could leverage the Chaos Sky-covering Mirror and their strength, he might truly achieve a surprise attack to kill the Flame Demon, thereby gaining assistance to condense the Source of Deadly Poison.
Thirdly, as Mysterious Heart mentioned, he could greatly weaken the forces of the different races.
If future wars were unavoidable, this battle was necessary.
This could potentially solve the three major issues he currently faced, yet he felt a vague sense of unease.
“Elder Baker, Whitney Williams, Peak Master, come here, I have something to discuss with you.”

Ethan Smith shook his head, casting aside chaotic thoughts.
He explained everything to the three, instructing them to temporarily manage the Human Guarding Alliance.
With an uncertain duration of absence, these matters needed to be arranged first; otherwise, chaos would surely ensue.
“Rest assured, with the three of us here, no chaos will arise. With our strengths, we can lead the Human Guarding Alliance through some training. Meanwhile, you must be cautious, the Misty Forest is no easy place.”
Whitney Williams’ expression became serious upon hearing about the Misty Forest.
