After finishing the phone call with the receptionist, Ethan looked at the mess in his hands.

After pondering for a moment, he finally decided to get up and knock on the bathroom door.

"Selena, how are you feeling now? These are your clothes, I'll leave them outside the door so you can put them on after your bath. I just called the reception, and they will bring you new clothes soon!"

Ethan didn't wait for Selena's response and turned to leave.

But he didn't expect Selena's voice to rise from the bathroom suddenly.

"Ethan, could you... could you bring the clothes in for me?"

As she spoke, her voice grew softer, barely audible by the end. However, Ethan's hearing was excellent, and he heard her.

Nonetheless, he became more awkward. He had been able to maintain his composure while rescuing Selena, but now he hesitated, unsure whether he should enter or not.

Knock, knock!

Just as he found himself in a dilemma, there was a sudden knock on the hotel room door. Following that, the voice of a

    Upon hearing Ethan criticize her parents, Selena felt an urgency in her heart and hastily defended them: "Ethan, things aren't as you think. Initially, Tarub treated me very well and was very respectful. But for some reason, he pulled this stunt today. My parents genuinely didn't know about any of this!""Do you still want to defend them? When you were little, they almost left you to die in a feverish state because they were busy making money. It was only when I came to check on you that I discovered the situation. Do you think I don't understand your parents' true nature?"Despite their close relationship, Selena knew Ethan was prejudiced against her entire family, especially her parents. Her mother, wanting to win over Emersyn, Ethan's stepmother, had spoken ill of him several times. As a result, their families had stopped interacting years ago.Back then, Selena thought she would never see her cousin again. But now, her parents' family had fallen hard in the capital, forcing them t

    The size of this device was truly minuscule, crafted with incredible precision. Ethan would never believe it to be an ordinary object. It was made with a highly advanced technology that an average person could not have hidden in a hotel room like this.As Ethan pondered the origin of this recording device, the woman's voice suddenly rang out."Who?"Startled, Ethan quickly scanned the room. There was no one else in the room besides him and her.However, how could she have detected his well-concealed hiding spot?Nonetheless, Ethan soon realized she was merely calling out as a precaution.After not sensing anyone following her, she casually stepped out of the room.This woman was exceedingly cautious. Just moments ago, her shout had nearly exposed Ethan. Luckily, she had left the room and was heading in his direction. Ethan could take advantage of the element of surprise and snatch the device from her hand.Indeed, after a moment of vigilance, the woman had let her guard down. As she a

    However, she seemed to have chosen the wrong tactic to deal with Ethan this time. He was genuinely furious, reaching out and tightening his grip on her throat."Don't you dare put on such an act with me! Tell me, who are you? Why are you targeting the Smith family?"As Ethan's hand tightened around her throat, the woman found breathing increasingly difficult. Her face turned beet red, and her chest heaved violently.Seeing her in this state, Ethan felt a slight urge to slap her hard, but he remained firm and kept his grip on her.Finally, when he saw that she was about to pass out, Ethan loosened his grip."Tell me, who are you?""Cough, cough..."Freed from Ethan's grasp, the woman coughed violently before greedily gasping for air. Eventually, her complexion returned to normal.But this time, she didn't dare try to deceive Ethan and could only answer truthfully."I... I know anything. It was Keyes who

    Suddenly receiving a phone call like that, and with the caller's tone being incredibly arrogant, Ethan really wanted to lose his temper, pull the person out of the phone, and give them a beating. Unfortunately, the man was really difficult to deal with. After saying his piece, he immediately hung up, not caring whether Ethan responded.For a moment, Ethan sighed heavily, trying to suppress the anger inside him. During the conversation, he realized that the voice belonged to the man in black who had accompanied Tazanna's father. He wondered what kind of identity this man had, daring to talk to him with such a demeaning attitude. If it wasn't for Ethan not wanting to reveal his true identity, he believed that with just one phone call, someone would help him settle the score with that man.However, that wasn't Ethan's style; he felt that if he wanted revenge, it was better to take matters into his own hands. After calming down, Ethan began to think about this upcoming meeting. Initially,

    "You... just wait. Don't get too cocky yet. This isn't over!" Watching Ethan's figure disappearing into the VIP room, the man in the black vest cursed angrily. However, sweat was pouring down his back like rain. Although Ethan had shown mercy, the lingering pain was still highly uncomfortable for him.In the past, the man had been a soldier and even belonged to an elite special forces unit. His physical strength and combat abilities were excellent, and he had saved Wynstan on several occasions, earning his utmost trust. Having his pride crushed by a mere security guard in a shopping mall infuriated him, filling him with a vengeful determination to pay Ethan back.At this point, Ethan was unaware of the situation. Even if he knew, he would have shrugged it off dismissively. A bodyguard following a wealthy man in a second-tier city would have made Ethan a little wary a few months ago, but now such people weren't worth his concern.Pushing the door open and spotting the middle-aged man s

    Once Ethan had exited the room, the bodyguards finally dared to crawl back up. Although their appearance was miserable, Ethan had shown restraint in his actions, causing them only a little more pain than usual."Boss!"At this moment, the black-suited bodyguard stood up from outside, his eyes slightly embarrassed as he looked at Wynstan."Open this up, and I want to see the content inside!"However, Wynstan didn't have time to talk much with them. He took Ethan's recording device and handed it to his bodyguards for processing.Quickly, the provocative images from hotel room 601 appeared on the computer screen. Initially, seeing these explicit images, all the men in the room couldn't help but exchange glances, their faces revealing a hint of strangeness.Fortunately, Keyes Swara's bedroom performance was subpar, lasting only a few minutes before he was panting and surrendering. Immediately after, the conversation regarding acquiring Heyday Group's shares began, along with content relat

    "Wait..."Leaving the scene, Ethan could not determine the location of the black Audi, so he could only wander around the area, feeling incredibly frustrated and irritated. While fishing at a loss, unsure whether to call for backup, his phone suddenly rang in his pocket.Seeing the incoming number, Ethan couldn't help but frown: "I'm listening." The number belonged to Gaius Ragsdill. Ethan didn't know why Gaius was calling him at this time.However, after hearing his voice, Ethan finally understood the reason: "Young master, there was a gunshot in the city just now. My people reported that they saw you at the scene. Are you alright?" It turned out that these people were secretly following him. Ethan's mood sank, but he didn't want to confront them and casually replied with a smile: "Nothing happened, just an unexpected collision! Oh..."Midway through his sentence, Ethan acted as if he suddenly remembered something and hurriedly asked: "By the way, did your people see a black Audi wit

    Although he couldn't hear what the young man was saying, Ethan could tell from the shape of his mouth that he was more than likely trying to provoke the girl. Through the rearview mirror, Ethan saw her angry expression and couldn't help but exclaim: "We're done for!"As expected, the girl's SUV quickly sped up, and not long after, the previously triumphant sports car was suddenly hit with a heavy impact.Rose began to spit out a stream of furious curses: "Damn it, this kid dares to provoke me, huh? I'll crash you to death!"Bang! Bang!At this point, all Ethan could do was silently shake his head. The young man in the blue sports car, who had just overtaken them and was feeling incredibly smug, now looked utterly stunned.It should be noted that his sports car was costly, several times more so than the SUV Rose was driving. Moreover, it was an imported sports car with a value far beyond its price tag.At this moment, seeing the side of his sports car dented by the SUV, the young man's

    “Destroy,” Ethan roared, swinging the Ancestor Blade powerfully. Countless beams of light converged on the sharp blade, launching a mighty attack against the skull.The Ivory Sage, not to be outdone, merged with the skull, which then seemed to gain intelligence. Its eyes glowed a ferocious red, and its enormous mouth seemed ready to swallow Ethan whole.The night and light, good and evil clashed, as if bringing the apocalypse.Black and white light intersected, splitting Mist Isle and the sea.The endless sea began to boil, everything disintegrating in moments.Then, under the white light, the terrible power exploded outward, with Ethan and the Ivory Sage standing at the center of it.“Retreat, quickly retreat,” Ricky and Green Dragon, astonished, commanded their armies to pull back.But they were too slow compared to the terrifying power.With a loud crash, dozens of warships were lifted tens of meters high, rocking violently.“Something’s wrong, protect the warships,” Green Dragon i

    Whoosh!A terrifying roar echoed throughout heaven and earth. Under the majestic aura, a golden dragon flew towards the skull phantom after Ethan's strike.The next moment, a collision that shook heaven and earth occurred.Evil and righteousness, the skull and the golden dragon collided. The sky was enveloped in a bright light."Retreat, quickly retreat," they shouted in horror, leading their people to rapidly fall back.The members of the Ivory Guild also began to flee.Under that power, a moment's inattention could lead to being swallowed up.Even standing at a distance, they couldn't help but worry.The sea boiled, with waves hundreds of meters high surging and crashing down, the momentum reaching the skies, the earth seeming to tremble."Mr. Alexander," Hugo and Lily exclaimed in shock.Even Green Dragon and Christian frowned. The power displayed was beyond their imagination. At this point, it was not easy to determine who would win or lose.After ten minutes, the huge waves fina

No wonder the Ivory Guild was so arrogant. It turns out they had a master."The Honored Ivory, so it's real," Ricky muttered, his words tinged with caution: "Not bad, no wonder the Ivory Guild has existed for so long."In front, Ethan narrowed his eyes, saying nothing as if he wasn't surprised, even appearing somewhat expectant.Was the Honored Ivory the person he was looking for?Unnoticed by anyone, the sky grew cloudy, the drizzle turned heavy, giving a cold feeling like winter in summer.Moments later, a water spout shot up from below Mist Isle, quickly reaching hundreds of meters high.Observing closely, one could see a person standing on that spout, clad in a black cloak with a skull pattern, appearing majestic.Under that black cloak was a mask, hiding the

    "Hmph, if you seek death, I'll oblige," Timothy grunted and moved to attack Ricky first.The battle ensued, a formidable power surging through the space."Christian, it's time to settle our scores," Solomon's three Judges from the Ivory Guild stepped forward, their faces filled with rage, seeking revenge on Christian."You think you're worthy? All three of you come at once," Christian said coldly."Christian, today you must die."The three Judges grimaced, their cold laughter intensifying as they lunged at Christian."Three against one, where's your honor? Green Dragon will join the fun," Green Dragon laughed and immediately stood beside Christian.The three Judges were the strongest under the Grand Mage, each at the tenth level. Christian alone might be at a disadvantage."Alright, let's see who kills more," Christian's fighting spirit surged as he licked his lips.Green Dragon wouldn't be outdone.

    Christian frowned but remained calm. Just an octopus attempting to confront Mr. Alexander was indeed naive.Sure enough, moments later, the black slime suddenly changed to yellow, and the tentacles seemed to be put through a meat grinder, turning into hundreds of pieces. Blood and flesh splattered, filling the sea with a pungent smell of blood.The octopus howled in rage, burying its head in the water. It wasn't dead; it was trying to escape.But Ethan wouldn't let it get away so easily. His eyes cold, he raised the Ancestor Blade high and slashed towards the octopus.The vast sea seemed to split in two under the power of his sword, even the water parting. The octopus barely had time to escape before it was cut in half.A white light emitted from the octopus's body and then disappeared. Even Christian was amazed by the power within that light."Sir, this…" Christian started to say but his implication was clear. This octopus was indeed artificially created, and if there were a hundred

    Seeing the armies before him, Ethan was deeply moved. Once, he was just an ordinary soldier, who had gone through tough wars to reach this day. Seeing his brothers, he saw himself in those glorious years. "Officers and soldiers, listen to my command." "Yes." After Ethan's shout, hundreds of thousands of soldiers echoed in unison. Whether it was Green Dragon, Lily, or Hugo, everyone appeared solemn, awaiting orders. "Ethan signaled for the army to board the warships, determined to eliminate the Ivory Guild today. Hundreds of thousands of soldiers, invigorated, bravely embarked on the warships. The Ivory Guild's stronghold was five hundred meters from the Auroria border, reachable only by warship. It was imaginable that today marked a battle of life and death. How many of the hundreds of thousands of soldiers would survive and return was uncertain. Soon, hundreds of warships plunged into the vast sea, heading towards the Ivory Guild's lair. "Sir, according to intelligence, the

    The Elders of the Emperor Clan, who had lived for over a hundred years and possessed extraordinary strength, regretted that even facing Ethan, they could only do so much. "If he wasn't arrogant, he wouldn't be Ethan," the head of the Lee family sighed. "Fourth Elder, Fifth Elder, please visit the Wind and Mac families." "After decades of seclusion, it's time for our Emperor clan to emerge." After Ethan left Auroria, the entire Flower Nation was abuzz. The five major war zones and tens of thousands of soldiers and officers moved day and night, and wherever they passed, the people rejoiced and welcomed them. The mighty army marched southward to attack the Ivory Guild. As the most dangerous organization in Flower Nation, the Ivory Guild was a target that needed to be eliminated. At this time, Ethan became a hero by eliminating harm for the people and was warmly supported by the entire nation. Not only that, but all three Emperors, who had been in hiding for decades, also took this

    Having said that, this person launched a cruel move towards the Heavenly Lord. The Heavenly Lord was unable to prepare in time and was killed immediately. “Okay, after dealing with that bad guy, next is the fight between us,” the head of the Ivory Guild glanced at Ethan. That Celestial Lord is nothing more than a puppet. The person behind the control and manipulation of the Ivory Guild is this Venerable. ……. Long Dao, Son Dinh. This is the place to worship the ancient Emperor. After thousands of years, only two people came here today. One person is Ethan, and the other person is the Venerable of the Ivory Guild who came because he was forced. The suppression of Ethan's great army caused all of this Venerable's subordinates to be defeated and have no way to retreat. At this time the Ivory Guild disbanded, only the Venerable of the Ivory Guild had to come here under Ethan's pursuit. When he arrived here, he saw Ethan standing on the mountain waiting for him.

    For example, at this moment, the strength he showed clearly surpassed the realm that Hoang Lao understood, so not long after the fight, Hoang Lao began to realize the problem, he began to scream. “Ethan, no matter how strong your strength is, you cannot destroy the Ivory Guild,” Hoang Lao said harshly. But unfortunately, Ethan in front of him just coldly cleared his throat: "Is that so?" After Old Man Hoang realized how strong Ethan was, he no longer restrained his body's strength. He used all his power, his main purpose was to kill Ethan. Seeing this, Ethan still stood as firmly as Mount Thai, not moving at all. At the same time, he clenched his fist and threw a punch, defeating all of Hoang Lao's defenses, making him basically unable to block. He was hit by a strong blow from Ethan, so he screamed in agony. “Ah…”, he was in extreme pain. Hoang Lao was so strong and yet at this moment he was defeated so easily, making the people around him surprised and speechless. They were un
