Chapter 672: Chapter 672: What Consequences?
Watching the torn document, Davy Barnett’s expression changed drastically!
He glared furiously at Ignacio Burke, saying, “You…what do you mean!”
Ignacio Burke replied coldly, “What, can’t you understand?”
“Ignacio Burke, you…don’t go too far! Even if you are the War God of the battle zone, you can’t act so domineering!” Davy Barnett gnashed his teeth in anger.
Ignacio Burke looked at Davy Barnett with a cold eye and said, “If you’re not convinced, you can sue me.”
“You!” Davy Barnett’s chest heaved with suppressed fury, his face ashen.
“You won’t take the man away today!” Davy Barnett gritted his teeth and snarled.
Ignacio Burke snorted coldly, “If you dare to disobey the command, I have the right to dispose of you on the spot.”
Just then, Ignacio Burke gestured, and a large group of armed soldiers rushed in from outside!
Not only that, but the Capital City Martial Arts Association was already surrounded!
Seeing this scene, Davy Barnett’s face turned extremely ugly!
It was clear that Ignacio Burke was determined to take the man away.
Clashing head-on with Ignacio Burke today would be tantamount to defying the authorities!
The aftermath of this was not something Davy Barnett could bear!
“Release him!” Ignacio Burke shouted.
Davy Barnett gritted his teeth, roll waved his hand, and said coldly, “Let him go!”
The Martial Saint Weapon hanging in the air, its brilliance began to dim.
A few people fumbled to untie Ethan Smith.
Upon seeing this, Emerson Holmes also sighed in relief.
“I never thought Ignacio Burke would come to bail him out.” Emerson Holmes thought to himself.
He looked at Ethan Smith, somewhat confused.
Was all this within Ethan Smith’s calculations? How did he do it and get Ignacio Burke to bail him out?
Ethan Smith descended from the execution stage and calmly stared at Davy Barnett, saying word by word, “Davy Barnett, you still remember the words I said to you, right?”
Davy Barnett’s face turned a shade paler, coolly saying, “Don’t get too smug, too. The Capital City Martial Arts Association won’t let you off so easily!”
“Good, I’ll be waiting,” Ethan Smith replied coldly.
“Come with me,” Ignacio Burke threw a glance at Ethan Smith and said.
Ethan Smith gave a grunt of acknowledgement and followed Ignacio Burke out of the Capital City Martial Arts Association.
Upon reaching the door, Ethan Smith discovered that it was already surrounded by soldiers.
This was the might of the authorities, a force that the Capital City Martial Arts Association couldn’t contend with.
After getting into the car, Ethan Smith thanked Ignacio Burke, saying, “Thank you, Commander Burke.”
Ignacio Burke glanced at Ethan Smith again, saying, “Don’t celebrate too early, the Capital City Martial Arts Association won’t leave it at that.”
Ethan Smith grinned, “I know, thanks for the reminder, Commander Burke.”
The car moved forward and arrived at a deserted place.
It was then that the car stopped.
Ignacio Burke opened the car door and said, “Get out.”
Ethan Smith paused, somewhat awkwardly saying, “Can’t you lock me up for a few days?”
Ignacio Burke frowned at him, “I told you to get out, so get out. Where did all this nonsense come from?”
Ethan Smith shrugged, hastily hopping out of the car.
After stepping out of the car, Ignacio Burke didn’t say a word and just left with his men.
Ethan Smith exhaled deeply and whispered, “This plan… it was successful.”
Without dallying, he immediately set off for Green Moon Villa.
The Green Moon Villa had a Spiritual Spring, and Ethan Smith planned to utilize that spring for cultivation while waiting for the man with the mustache.
The Capital City Martial Arts Association would definitely send another purple robe to kill Ethan Smith.
Ethan Smith was clear about the gap between him and the purple robe.
Once he reached the mid-term Military Marquis, Ethan Smith would have a fighting chance.
…
On the other hand, after rescuing Ethan Smith, Ignacio Burke went straight to a private club.
In that club, there was a man in a suit waiting for Ignacio Burke.
After stepping into the club, Ignacio Burke saluted and said, “Greetings Mr. Dawson.”
Mr. Dawson waved his hand with a smile, speaking, “How did it go, is everything done?”
Ignacio Burke nodded, “Mr. Dawson, just as you predicted, Ethan Smith did indeed seek my help.”
Mr. Dawson burst into laughter, “I must have seen him rightly, good, very good.”
Ignacio Burke sat by Mr. Dawson’s side, frowning slightly, “Mr. Dawson, I don’t understand why you would want to help him?”
“Help him?” Mr. Dawson shook his head.
He spoke calmly, “I’m not helping him but using his power.”
“Using his power?” Ignacio Burke was a bit surprised.
Mr. Dawson took a puff of his cigarette and then slowly said, “These years, the unorganized expansion of the Capital City Martial Arts Association has caused dissatisfaction on the higher-ups.”
“But, after all, they are part of the world of martial arts, so direct abolition would easily cause unnecessary trouble.”
Upon hearing this, Ignacio Burke suddenly had a moment of realization.
He exclaimed, “You want to… use Ethan Smith’s hand to strike at the Capital City Martial Arts Association?”
“Correct,” said Mr. Dawson calmly.
“As to whether he can accomplish it or not, that’s up to his own fate.”
Unbeknownst to Ethan Smith, he had unwittingly become someone’s pawn, completely ignorant of the fact.
He headed all the way back to the Green Moon Villa.
Ever since Ethan Smith killed Toby Bacchus, no one at the Green Moon Villa dared to harbor aspirations of taking his place.
In the Great Hall, Patriarch Reeves sat majestically. In front of him were two White Robes from the Capital City Martial Arts Association.
Although they were just White Robes, their status was not something that Patriarch Reeves could compare with.
“Patriarch Reeves, all sects should be led by the Capital City Martial Arts Association.” One of the White Robes spoke with a faint smile.
Patriarch Reeves frowned, saying, “Our Green Moon Villa does not want to have any relationship with the Capital City Martial Arts Association.”
“Hehe, Patriarch Reeves, we are having a peaceful discussion with you right now, the next time we come, it won’t be the same.” One of the White Robes warned ominously.
Patriarch Reeves frowned slightly, saying, “Let’s wait for Mr. Smith to come back before making a decision.”
“Haha, Patriarch Reeves, today is Ethan Smith’s execution day, surely you knew?” The two White Robes burst out in laughter.
“Wait for him to come back? I’m afraid you might no longer have the chance.”
Patriarch Reeves gritted her teeth, saying, “Before the result is out, nothing is certain.”
“Please leave, the two of you. You’re not welcome here,” Patriarch Reeves said, standing up.
The expression on the White Robes soured, one of them huffed, “Patriarch Reeves, are you escorting us out? Do you know the consequences of refusing us today?!”
“You’re not the one who can bear the consequences, you better think it through!”
“What consequences?”
Just then, a voice sounded from behind them.
Turning around, they saw Ethan Smith staring at them with a stern face.
