Chapter 600: Chapter 600: If There Are No Villains, Create Them
The shadowy figure waved a hand, and countless people were directly flung away!
Those who originally wanted to resist began to feel the intention to retreat and started to scatter and flee!
Ethan Smith stared intently at the figure, his face becoming more and more strange!
Her face was covered by a mask, and this mask was identical to the one Clare Richardson held in her hand!
“Could it be… that this person is the owner of the mask?!” Ethan Smith exclaimed!
More importantly, there seemed to be some connection between the mask and Clare!
Quickly, the masked woman charged into the Great Hall.
Many cultivators inside the hall were no match for her and completely helpless.
In a very short time, a river of blood flowed from the Immortal Slaying Sect.
The sect lord sitting on the chair had a pale face.
He opened his mouth, seemingly trying to say something, but Ethan Smith couldn’t hear a sound.
From his mouth’s movement, it seemed like he was begging for mercy.
But the masked woman didn’t give him any chance, she just raised her hand and directly crushed the sect lord’s divine sense!
Ethan Smith stood there, his face still full of shock.
What was the origin of this masked woman? Even mighty realm cultivators of the entire sect were unable to fight back?!
The masked woman stood in the Great Hall for a long time. It was only after an unknown amount of time that she slowly left.
Ethan Smith’s divine sense also detached at this moment.
Looking at the scene before him, he couldn’t help but break out in a cold sweat.
“So many mighty realm cultivators… unable to fight back…” Ethan Smith’s face was horrified.
This also made Ethan Smith begin to doubt, with lifespans of thousands of years, did any of them survive to this era?!
Moreover, what was the relationship between the masked woman and Clare, and why was Clare the only one who could wear the mask?
Could it be…
Clare is the reincarnation of the masked woman?!
If that’s the case, Clare’s future… is boundless!
Ethan Smith reached out, wanting to touch the corpse sitting in the chair.
But at this moment, the corpse collapsed with a bang, turned to ash and disappeared without a trace.
“Strange.” Ethan Smith frowned.
“It was indestructible just now, how could it suddenly turn to ash and vanish?”
“Could it be… someone deliberately wanted me to see this scene?”
At this moment, the entire Great Hall suddenly became cold.
A chill rose from one pile of bones after another!
“This is dark energy…so many people died, and the dark energy only bursts out at this moment.” Ethan Smith grew increasingly puzzled.
“I need to find time…to bring Clare here for a test.” Ethan Smith thought to himself.
Afterward, Ethan Smith began to explore the Immortal Slaying Sect.
After all, these people were all mighty realm cultivators, even those who surpassed the mighty realm.
Any treasure on their bodies would be a rare holy artifact.
…
On the island above the sea, the sky was brightening.
Jordan Richards stood on the surface of the sea, frowning deeply.
Soon, Dudley Lynch appeared above the sea surface.
He walked up to Jordan Richards, shaking his head, “Captain Richards, we still haven’t found him. I’m afraid he’s already at the bottom of the sea.”
Jordan Richards remained silent, then whispered, “I hope so.”
Despite his words, Jordan Richards still felt somewhat uneasy at heart.
As for what might be hidden beneath this island, Jordan Richards had no idea.
“We can’t delay any longer. Once this bracelet loses its effect, I won’t be able to control these lower-level martial artists.” Jordan Richards spoke gravely.
If the bracelet lost its effect, these martial artists from the lower layers would be difficult to control.
Although they didn’t dare to resist for the time being, if there really was some treasure hidden below this island, they wouldn’t continue to stay weak.
As long as the interests were large enough, any coward could become a hero.
So, Jordan Richards gathered everyone together, and said coldly, “From now on, I will lead you to the real treasure.”
Upon hearing this, the crowd looked at Jordan Richards with puzzled expressions.
“It seems like there’s some treasure hidden under the sea.” Dominic Taylor said indifferently.
“Oh? Dominic, do you know any insider information?” Several people looked at Dominic Taylor.
Dominic Taylor glanced at them, saying, “I had once visited the library of the Capital City Martial Arts Association, where they store the locations and simple introductions of all the Mystic Realms in the world.”
Hearing this, everyone couldn’t help but be surprised.
“Dominic, what’s your relationship with the Capital City Martial Arts Association? You can even see that?” Ricardo Bowman asked in astonishment.
Dominic Taylor glanced at him, and replied indifferently, “Well, the Capital City Martial Arts Association has invited me to be a candidate for their chairman.”
Upon hearing this, everyone gasped in shock!
They never expected Dominic Taylor would receive such attention!
“Miss Green, it seems that Ethan Smith is dead now.” Blaise Rhodes suddenly changed the topic.
Daphne Green glanced at Blaise Rhodes and smiled, “Mr. Rhodes, you seem to be quite against Ethan Smith.”
Blaise Rhodes snorted, “About Ethan Smith, he’s not worth my targeting.”
Hearing this, Daphne Green spoke lightly, “I don’t think Ethan Smith is necessarily dead.”
“Haha, it’s been a day and a night now. If he hasn’t died, is he recuperating at the bottom of the sea?” Blaise Rhodes sneered.
“We could make a bet on it,” Daphne Green smiled.
“Fine, what do we bet on?” Blaise Rhodes snorted.
Daphne Green thought for a moment and said, “If he’s still alive, you’ll give me the Rhodes Family Treasure, how about that?”
Blaise Rhodes’ face changed instantly, and he said coldly, “Miss Green, isn’t this bet a little too much? It’s not up to me to decide about the Rhodes Family Treasure.”
Daphne Green smiled lightly, “It seems that Mr. Rhodes isn’t that confident after all.”
Stimulated by Daphne Green’s words, Blaise Rhodes immediately replied, “I’ll bet! What if you lose!”
“If I lose, I’ll give you the Green family’s Ancient Guqin.” Daphne Green replied with a smile.
“The Ancient Guqin? The Green family’s inherited treasure?” Blaise Rhodes’ eyes brightened.
“Miss Green, I hope you’ll keep your word,” Blaise Rhodes said.
Daphne Green gave a slight bow, “Same goes for you.”
Afterwards, everyone stopped talking and looked at Jordan Richards intently.
Jordan Richards spoke coldly, “The depths of the sea are full of dangers, a single moment of negligence could lead to an irreversible disaster. From now on, all of you must stay behind me and never leave my side. Otherwise, you’ll bear the consequences.”
Everyone nodded slightly.
Jordan Richards looked at Dudley Lynch, and said coldly, “Once we’re at the bottom of the sea, I want you to kill all the low-level martial artists, not missing a single one. I’ll use the bracelet to help you.”
Dudley Lynch frowned, “Mr. Richards, isn’t this a bit inappropriate? If I kill them all, won’t I have a bad reputation?”
Jordan Richards narrowed his eyes, “What else do you think I want you for? Let me tell you, the reason I let you join the Capital City Martial Arts Association is to be our black glove, to do the things we can’t do ourselves!”
At this point, Jordan Richards paused, then continued with a cold sneer, “When we leave here, you’ll have to kill even more people. If there are no villains, we have to create them. In this way, we can highlight the value of our Capital City Martial Arts Association. Understand?”
