Chapter 787 - 787: The Peak Form of Military Marquis Is Not Worth Mentioning!
Chapter 787: Chapter 787: The Peak Form of Military Marquis Is Not Worth Mentioning!
Ethan Smith nodded slightly.
He could certainly see the intentions of the Purple Flame Sect.
“Is this Purple Flame Sect that powerful?” Ethan Smith asked.
Herman Avery glanced at Ethan Smith and nodded, “Yes, they have more than twenty martial marquises, including several at the peak form.”.
“Besides that?” Ethan Smith continued to ask.
These martial marquises, Ethan Smith did not pay attention to them at all.
As long as it doesn’t involve the martial saint, Ethan Smith was fearless.
“Besides that? What do you mean?” Herman Avery was clearly a little confused.
Ethan Smith said, “For example, Martial Saint’s Weapon? Or the Power of Martial Saint, or even the Martial Saint himself?”
Herman Avery chuckled, “Martial saint? If the Purple Flame Sect had a martial saint, why would they need to hide in the Proseponia Kingdom?”
Ethan Smith thought for a moment, and that made sense.
If there was a martial saint, no one under the heavens could restrict the Purple Flame Sect.
“The whole Avery family only has six martial marquises. We are far from being the opponents of the Purple Flame Sect.” Herman Avery took a deep breath.
“Their goal is probably the same as yours, aiming at the Power of Martial Saint.” Mr. Avery said solemnly.
Ethan Smith rubbed his chin and said, “So, if you want to deal with this Purple Flame Sect, you must use the Power of Martial Saint, right?”
“Yes.” Herman Avery did not conceal this.
Ethan Smith continued to ask, “How many times can you use this Power of Martial Saint?”
Tilda Avery on the side explained, “Ethan, you seem to not know much about the Power of Martial Saint.”
Ethan Smith laughed bitterly, “I indeed do not understand.”
Tilda Avery continued, “The Power of Martial Saint can only be used once. Once it is infused into a person’s body, that power will belong to that person.”
Ethan Smith exclaimed, “So it means, this Power of Martial Saint will forever remain in his body?”
“Of course not.” Herman Avery took over the conversation.
“The Power of Martial Saint is a means of martial saint. The role it can play depends on the strength of the carrier.”
“If the Power of Martial Saint is injected into a Grandmaster’s body, not only will it have no effect at all, it may even cause the Grandmaster to burst and die.”
“As for how long this Power of Martial Saint can stay, it usually does not exceed one month.”
Tilda Avery nodded and said, “Yes, meaning once the Power of Martial Saint has been used, it will disappear, it’s only a matter of time.”
Ethan Smith suddenly had a moment of enlightenment.
So, this Power of Martial Saint is like a nuclear bomb in this era. Once used, there is no turning back.
“Right now, we may only be able to use the Power of Martial Saint.” Herman Avery said gravely.
“But who should receive the Power of Martial Saint?”
This was a difficult problem at this time.
The Avery family indeed has many martial marquises, but their prowess was not strong.
As for the Avery siblings, they were all in the early stage of the martial marquis.
If the Purple Flame Sect also possessed the Power of Martial Saint, then they would still be outmatched.
But if it’s injected into someone else’s body, who can guarantee that the person who gains the power will not betray the Avery family?
“Doesn’t Avery family have any strong descendants?” Ethan Smith asked somewhat puzzled.
Herman Avery shook his head, “The descendants of the Avery family have never participated in martial arts.”
Ethan Smith fell silent momentarily.
He rubbed his chin and tentatively proposed, “In that case, why not infuse this Power of Martial Saint into my body, I will help you destroy the Purple Flame Sect.”
“You?” Herman Avery couldn’t help but huff.
“Ethan Smith, is this your idea of taking advantage of a crisis?”
Ethan Smith waved his hands and said, “No, no, no, you have misunderstood. If this Power of Martial Saint is injected into my body, its effect would surely be better than anyone else’s, and the Purple Flame Sect would simply be negligible.”
“Ethan Smith, I know you are in the late stage of the martial marquis, but we Avery family, we have a peak martial marquis! Why do you think your body would be a better vessel?” Herman Avery scoffed.
Ethan Smith didn’t seem to be in a hurry, he smiled lightly, “A peak martial marquis is like grass before me.”
As soon as this remark came out, everyone present couldn’t help but laugh.
“Ethan Smith, do you know the huge difference between martial marquises?” Herman Avery said.
“It is very difficult to cross the gap between peaks of martial marquises.” Tilda Avery also commented.
Ethan Smith couldn’t help but scratch his head, thinking to himself, “It seems that I don’t have any reputation in Prosperonia.”
“Alright, Ethan Smith, given the current situation, stop thinking about the Power of Martial Saint, and go back.” Herman Avery waved his hands.
“If our Avery family can survive this catastrophe, we will remember your favor.”
After dropping these words, they gave him notice to leave.
However, Ethan Smith was not in a hurry to leave.
He laughed and suggested, “I understand that you all don’t believe me. How about this, let me spar with that peak martial marquis to show you.”
Herman Avery waved his hand impatiently, “At this time, don’t add trouble. You are just a Pill Master, and naturally, you will be affected in martial arts. You can’t possibly surpass other martial marquises.”
Ethan Smith said, “Mr. Avery, why don’t you give me a chance? It would be good for everyone.”
While talking, Ethan Smith subconsciously looked at Tilda Avery.
Tilda Avery fell silent for a while, and suggested, “Well… Let him try.”
Herman Avery furrowed his brows, he said somewhat impatiently, “Alright, but let me tell you, if something happens to you, we Avery family will not be responsible.”
“Don’t worry.” Ethan Smith smiled lightly.
As such, Herman Avery turned around and left the Great Hall, and Ethan Smith also followed him out.
They arrived at the Avery family’s lawn waiting for the arrival of the peak martial marquis.
About ten minutes later.
An elderly man of quite advanced age walked over, following Herman Avery’s side.
“This is the peak martial marquis of the Avery family.” Herman Avery said.
“Mr. Brown, be merciful.” Herman Avery looked at the elderly man and said.
The elderly man known as Mr. Brown replied with a light smile, “Rest assured.”
After that, Mr. Brown walked up to Ethan Smith and said, “Youngsters nowadays, they are really ignorant of their limits. Do you know that in a match between martial marquises, serious injuries and even life and death can easily occur?”
Ethan Smith smiled and said, “Mr. Brown, don’t worry, I can control my strength.”
This undoubtedly angered Mr. Brown; his face darkened instantly as he reprimanded, “I’ve never seen such a disrespectful youngster before! If I don’t teach you a lesson, I don’t know how much more arrogant you will be!”
After speaking, Mr. Brown’s aura started to rise rapidly, and several strong auras burst from his fingers.
That aura turned substantial, making the air around it humming and vibrating!
Seeing this, Tilda Avery’s face changed!
“This is Mr. Brown’s signature move, Heaven’s Dance Slash!” Tilda Avery exclaimed.
“Mr. Brown, please be merciful!”
But Mr. Brown, already angry, did not care what Tilda Avery had to say.
He wielded his weapon and it pointed directly at Ethan Smith’s chest!
