Chapter 1042 -1042: Roadblock!

Star saw through Ethan Smith’s intention at a glance.

Ethan Smith wasn’t in a hurry either. He smiled and said, “That’s right, I do hope you leave the Second Secret Realm. Of course, it would be even better if you could help me.”

“I told you, don’t even think about it!” Star said coldly.

“Either I die in battle or kill you.”

Ethan Smith pulled up a chair and sat down, saying indifferently, “It’s probably impossible for you to kill me now, unless you really activate the Soul Bell.”

“But unfortunately, you can’t bring yourself to do it. Otherwise, what’s the difference between you and Obadiah Heptinstall?”

Star’s face changed, and he quickly looked at his pocket, seemingly searching for the Spatial Magic Artifact.

“Don’t worry, the Soul Bell is still on you,” said Ethan Smith.

“I’m not interested in magical artifacts that rely on the sacrifice of others.”

Star’s face sank, and he coldly said, “Either kill me or let me go.”

“You can go, but you have to heal your wounds first,” said Ethan Smith.

“No need! Stop being hypocritical here. Instead of wasting time, you should think about how to deal with the Soul Bell!”

After leaving this sentence, Star turned to leave.

The Martial Saints outside the door quickly stepped forward, blocking Star’s path.

“What?” Star looked back at Ethan Smith.

Ethan Smith spread his hands and said, “Everyone knows now that I captured you alive. If you go back now, will Luke Fraley believe you?”

“Enough nonsense! Don’t even try to sow discord!” Star said coldly.

Ethan Smith narrowed his eyes and asked, “Do you really want to leave?”

“What do you think?” Star replied with a somber face.

Ethan Smith got up and walked over to Star.

“I don’t know what benefits the Fraley family has given you to make you so willingly assist in their tyranny,” Ethan Smith said coldly.

“Do you have any idea how many people the Fraley family has harmed? Even martial artists in the Second Secret Realm are being persecuted!”

“Their ideals are completely different from yours, so deep down, you’re hoping someone can replace them, aren’t you?”

“That’s precisely why you’ve let go of Jackson Harris, who had a good chance of defeating the Second Secret Realm, and then me! Won’t you admit it?”

Star’s face changed dramatically, and he said angrily, “You’re talking nonsense! When did I ever let you go!”

“When did I? When I went to find Jackson Harris, you pretended not to see me, and later there were many chances to take me down, but you never took action!”

“As for the Soul Bell this time, if you had activated it directly, I would have been severely injured at least! But you gave up again!” Ethan Smith said word by word.

Star’s face was embarassed, and he didn’t know how to respond.

Ethan Smith continued, “You want to be loyal to the Second Secret Realm and want them gone. Who doesn’t know the dilemma you face?”

“Loyalty and righteousness can’t be fulfilled both at once. Your kind of loyalty is regarded as blind loyalty.”

Star was furious and said, “So what! It’s not your place as a junior to teach me!”

“I’m not qualified to educate you, but I hope you can make the right choice,” said Ethan Smith.

“If you’re willing to leave the Second Secret Realm now, I can promise to spare Luke Fraley’s life.”

Star sneered, “You’re better off killing me; I will never betray the Second Secret Realm.”

Ethan Smith took a deep breath and said coldly, “Alright then, since that is the case, I won’t say more. You may go.”

Star snorted and pushed away the two people in front of him, turning to leave.

Watching his departing back, Ethan Smith was somewhat puzzled.

Why was Star so loyal to Luke Fraley? What kind of love potion had Luke Fraley given him?

Ethan Smith sighed slightly.

Getting Star to turn against them wouldn’t be that easy.

…

Star left Heaven Gate and headed towards Capital City Martial Arts Association.

But when he was about to reach Capital City, the scene in front of him suddenly began to change.

The surrounding scenery disappeared, replaced by darkness.

In the darkness, two people slowly walked out.

“Who are you?” Star asked coldly.

“Tsk tsk, I didn’t expect Ethan Smith to let you go. We didn’t come here in vain.” The two of them stepped forward and said lightly.

Star looked at the two and calmly asked, “Who are you, exactly? Sent by Ethan Smith?”

“Ethan Smith?” The two looked at each other and then sneered, “Fine, let you die with a clear understanding.”

With that, they took out a token from their waist.

On the token were three big characters: Halcroen Sect!

“People from the Halcroen Sect?” Star’s eyes narrowed slightly.

“You bunch of vermin still haven’t been exterminated?”

“Vermin?” The other party didn’t get angry either; they just sneered, “What’s the difference in essence between what you Capital City Martial Arts Association people are doing? You’re holding the banner of justice and doing despicable things. You’re even worse than us.”

Star sneered, “Enough with the nonsense, what do you want to do?”

“We don’t want to do anything. We just heard that you have a magical artifact on you called the Soul Bell,” the other party said with a light smile.

“We’re quite interested in this artifact. If you’re willing to hand it over, we’ll let you go.”

Star said coldly, “Just the two of you?”

“Hahaha! If you were at your peak, we wouldn’t dare to mess with you. Unfortunately, you’re seriously injured now and can’t even display a tenth of your peak strength,” the two said sinisterly.

“So… just hand over the Soul Bell obediently!”
