Chapter 1045 -1045: The Mysterious Crane_1

Demon City was like a pure land.

It stood in a desolate area but was extremely prosperous and thriving.

Ethan Smith walked towards Demon City on foot, and the surrounding environment caused his energy to slowly dissipate.

By the time he arrived at Demon City, his energy had almost withered away.

Ethan Smith stood at the entrance of Demon City and found that the gate was tightly closed, which was different from his last visit.

This couldn’t help but make Ethan Smith feel a sense of foreboding.

The gate was closed, and a formation had been set up…

Could something have happened to Demon City?

Ethan Smith didn’t dare to think any further. He quickly knocked on the gate hurriedly.

Soon, the gate slowly opened.

Two people walked out of it.

One of them looked Ethan up and down and said coldly, “Who allowed you to approach?”

Ethan Smith hurriedly explained, “Crane and I are friends. Could you please inform him that Ethan Smith is here to see him?”

“Friends? How can Crane have a human friend?!” the two shouted.

Ethan Smith helplessly explained, “I really am his friend. If you don’t believe me, just go and ask.”

The two looked at each other, their eyes filled with suspicion.

“You stay here and watch him; I’ll inform Crane,” one of them said.

After that, he turned around and walked towards the depths of Demon City.

Ethan Smith looked at the other Demonic Beast guarding the gate and said with a smile, “Brother, why is the gate of Demon City closed so tightly? Is it…”

“Bang!”

Before Ethan Smith could finish, the gate was slammed shut.

“Dammit,” Ethan cursed quietly.

Such a prestigious Martial Saint, yet he was subjected to this kind of treatment.

It seemed that Demon City’s dislike for humans was indeed well-deserved.

A few minutes later, the gate opened again.

Oxen was standing at the entrance.

“Oxen!” Ethan Smith hurriedly stepped forward and greeted him.

Oxen laughed, “What brings you here all of a sudden?”

Ethan Smith spoke insincerely, “I missed you guys and came back to visit.”

“Hahaha, where’s that weird kid with the mothball smell?” Oxen asked.

Ethan Smith scratched his head and said, “He didn’t come.”

“Alright, let’s talk while we walk. Crane is waiting for you,” Oxen said with a hearty laugh.

Upon hearing these words, Ethan became anxious.

He quickly changed his tune, “To be honest, I have a small favor to ask.”

Crane snorted lightly and got up. He looked at Ethan and said calmly, “Go on, what is it?”

Ethan Smith was silent for a moment, and then said, “I would like you to help me lead an attack on the Second Secret Realm.”

Hearing this, Crane snorted lightly through his nose.

“Do you think I’ll agree?” Crane raised an eyebrow, and his narrow eyes stared at Ethan, filled with a playful and teasing look.

Ethan Smith gave a wry smile, “I know it’s difficult to get you to agree…”

“Then don’t mention it,” Crane waved his hand, interrupting Ethan’s words.

“I have Jade Dew and Gold Dregs Jade Fish here. I can enjoy life comfortably here. Why should I enter the mundane world and get involved in endless disputes?” Crane said. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

Ethan Smith hurriedly said, “This isn’t a pointless dispute for me. The Second Secret Realm has insulted and bullied me and kidnapped my woman. I can’t feel at ease unless I take them down!”

“But for me, it is a pointless dispute,” Crane said lightly.

Ethan Smith fell silent.

Yes, Crane was unwilling to get involved in the mundane world in the first place. Asking him to attack the Second Secret Realm for his own sake was indeed somewhat selfish.

“Alright, let’s just forget it. Let’s drink and talk for a few days, sharing stories from the past and present!” Ethan Smith waved his hand.

“Oh?” Crane raised his eyebrows again.

His captivating gaze was fixed on Ethan Smith, making him feel extremely uncomfortable.

“Are you… a pervert or something?” Ethan couldn’t help but blurt out in the end.
