Although the voice was not loud, it fell into everyone’s ears.
Turning to look, they saw the Lord of the Medicine God Pavilion standing behind them.
She was not tall, but she had an imposing presence.
No one could ignore her existence.
Sara looked up and down at the Lord of the Medicine God Pavilion and asked, “Who are you?”
The Pavilion Master glanced at Sara, gently raised her hand, and slapped Sara across the face in midair!
This slap sent Sara flying out!
“You…” Sara got up from the ground, about to say something, when the two people beside her quickly bowed and said, “Greetings, Lord of the Medicine God Pavilion.”
Lord of the Medicine God Pavilion?
Hearing this title, Sara suddenly felt like there was a fishbone lodged in her throat, unable to say a word.
“Lord Pavilion Master!” Soon, Sofia Carrillo ran over from behind.
The Pavilion Master didn’t say a word; she looked at the three of them and said coldly, “Get out!”
Although Sara was unhappy, she dared not be angry in front of the Lord of the Medicine God Pavilion and could only hastily leave the place.
Ethan Smith couldn’t help but smile bitterly in his heart.
Why would the Pavilion Master suddenly show up here?
This… completely ruined his plan.
“Greetings, Lord Pavilion Master.” Ethan Smith stepped forward and bowed.
The Pavilion Master’s narrow eyes swept towards Ethan Smith.
For a moment, Ethan Smith felt as if he was on the verge of being exposed!
This kind of feeling, Ethan Smith had only experienced with Mr. Holmes of the Capital City Martial Arts Association!
“Lord Pavilion Master, you must help Master Smith…” Sofia Carrillo said anxiously on the side.
The Pavilion Master looked coldly at Ethan Smith and said, “Follow me.”
“Yes.” Ethan Smith smiled bitterly.
He followed behind the Pavilion Master and came to a room.
After that, the Pavilion Master’s jade-like hand gently lifted and was placed at the position of Ethan Smith’s dantian.
It didn’t take long for the Pavilion Master’s brows to furrow.
She looked up at Ethan Smith and said, “So that’s how it is.”
Ethan Smith smiled bitterly, “As expected, I can’t hide anything from the Pavilion Master.”
The Pavilion Master did not continue the conversation, but asked coldly, “Why did you do this?”
Ethan Smith was silent for a moment, then slowly said, “There are three reasons.”
“First, I am currently no match for Dexter Blair, and the fastest way for me to cultivate now is to devour the inner strength of others.”
“Second, I always feel like someone is trying to kill me in the dark.”
This feeling was very strong, but Ethan Smith had never known who it was.
Ethan Smith had many enemies on all sides. Although he had many overt enemies, he knew nothing about those lurking in the shadows.
“Third… If I continue like this, I will definitely draw the attention of the Taylor and Blair families. If they ignore rumors and send a powerful Military Marquis Realm expert to deal with me, I will surely be doomed.”
After listening, the Pavilion Master said indifferently, “So, I have ruined your good intentions?”
Ethan Smith smiled bitterly, “Indeed, but your arrival may lend more credibility.”
“Everyone in the world knows that I am an elder of the Medicine God Pavilion. If you do not show up for a long time, it will naturally arouse suspicion.”
The Pavilion Master nodded slightly. She took a sip of tea and said indifferently, “What are your plans for the future?”
Ethan Smith looked up, his eyes filled with a resolute light.
“I will go along with their plans and make a do-or-die effort.” Ethan Smith said coldly.
“Oh?” The Pavilion Master seemed somewhat surprised.
Ethan Smith leaned in to the Pavilion Master’s ear and whispered his plan.
After listening, the Pavilion Master’s eyebrows furrowed slightly.
“Ethan Smith, are you sure you want to do this?” The Pavilion Master asked with a heavy tone.
Ethan Smith nodded, “I have so little time left, I can’t afford to waste a single minute.”
“Have you considered the consequences of doing this? What if you are really killed someday?” The Pavilion Master asked coldly.
Ethan Smith laughed, “There is a saying called ‘placing one’s life in danger to seek survival.’
Upon hearing this, the Pavilion Master fell silent.
After a long time, she slowly stood up, turned around, and left.
When she reached the doorway, the Pavilion Master stopped and said indifferently, “I understand.”
“Thank you, Lord Pavilion Master.” Ethan Smith bowed, with a respectful expression on his face.
On that day, the Pavilion Master left Chuzzle.
Such a fast departure indeed surprised everyone.
“Master Smith, what did the Pavilion Master say? Does she have a solution?” Sofia Carrillo asked.
Ethan Smith glanced at Sofia Carrillo and shook his head, “Our negotiations were not pleasant.”
“Ah? How could this be?” Sofia Carrillo’s face turned somewhat pale.
Ethan Smith didn’t say anything more. He sat cross-legged on the sofa and muttered softly, “They will definitely come again. The temptation of the stairway to heaven’s cultivation skill is too great.”
At night, the Martial Arts Forum was the liveliest.
And this night was destined to be extraordinary.
It was unknown when Ethan Smith had become a frequent visitor to the Martial Arts Forum.
Almost every day, there would be discussions about Ethan Smith, with some even casting him as the main character.
And on this night, a heavyweight news broke:
“The Medicine God Pavilion will revoke Ethan Smith’s elder status tomorrow.”
These few words alone sent a shockwave through the entire Martial Arts Forum!
As the top medical organization in the martial arts world and even the entire Pyro Kingdom, every move of the Medicine God Pavilion caused a sensation.
The personnel changes within the Medicine God Pavilion would also be made public.
The appointment and dismissal of elders and other such matters would be made public as soon as possible.
Upon seeing this news, people immediately began to voice their opinions.
“Ethan Smith was actually kicked out of the Medicine God Pavilion!”
“Oh my God, it seems that Ethan Smith’s dantian really is injured.”
“Yes, the Medicine God Pavilion always recruits elites and never takes in the useless.”
“Even the Lord of the Medicine God Pavilion has no solution. Ethan Smith is finished.”
Even the Pyro’s Martial Artists Potential List removed Ethan Smith’s name that very night.
This was the influence of the Medicine God Pavilion!
At this moment, Ethan Smith was lying on his bed with his eyes slightly closed.
In his mind, countless golden flashes appeared, each of them representing a top-level cultivation skill.
Just as he was immersed in this, his bedroom door was suddenly pushed open with a bang.
Then, Sofia Carrillo and Edward Green entered with faces full of grief and anger.
“What’s wrong?” Ethan Smith sat up from the bed and asked knowingly.
Sofia Carrillo bit her red lips with her teeth, clenched her jaw, and said, “I never thought the Medicine God Pavilion would be so heartless!”
“They actually kicked you out of the Medicine God Pavilion!” Edward Green said angrily as well.
Ethan Smith smiled and said, “Isn’t this exactly what should happen? The Medicine God Pavilion is full of geniuses, so how can I occupy a position and do nothing?”
“But… kicking you out at a time like this, isn’t that like hitting someone when they’re down?” Sofia Carrillo said angrily.
“I must have been blind to join the Medicine God Pavilion.”
Having said that, Sofia Carrillo took out the token of a Pharmacist of the Medicine God Pavilion from her waist and slammed it on the ground.
The token shattered instantly, breaking into pieces.
