Chapter 1732: Chapter 1732: The Taylor Family Descends_1 Chapter 1732: Chapter 1732: The Taylor Family Descends_1 Ethan Smith struggled desperately to stop Cuthbert Greene, but the chains on his body made it impossible for him to move at all.

The chains were of unknown material, and they seemed to have been imbued with some secret technique. No matter how hard Ethan tried, he couldn’t shake them off!

Soon, Cuthbert had grabbed the Jade Pendant, and with a fierce tug, seized it in his hand.

“Cuthbert, put the Jade Pendant down!” Ethan clenched his teeth, glaring at Cuthbert.

Cuthbert ignored Ethan, as he played with the Jade Pendant, carefully inspecting it up and down.

“Doesn’t seem to be anything special.” Cuthbert frowned.

His eyes narrowed as he looked at Ethan, and with a sarcastic smile, said, “Could it be that this thing has some special meaning?”

Ethan stared angrily at Cuthbert, biting his teeth, “Return my item, and I can give you other treasures in exchange!”

“Oh? Other treasures? What other treasures do you have?” Cuthbert sneered.

Ethan opened his mouth and hurriedly said, “I have many secret treasures on me, as long as you return the Pendant, I’ll give them all to you!”

“Do you think I’m a fool? All your stuff is probably in this Spatial Magic Artifact, right?” Cuthbert laughed coldly.

At this moment, Ethan was furious to the extreme. He shouted angrily, “Cuthbert, you’d better return my item, or you’ll face a disaster!”

“Hahahaha!”

At his words, Cuthbert couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

He said coldly, “Since you care so much about it, I’ll destroy it myself. I’d like to see what you can do about it!”

Ethan’s face changed as he shouted desperately, “No!”

Unfortunately, it was too late.

Cuthbert held the Jade Pendant and exerted force with his hand, instantly crushing it into pieces!

Seeing the shattered Jade Pendant, Ethan’s face turned extremely ugly.

Cuthbert, however, laughed coldly. He folded his hands behind his back and said calmly, “Kid, you won’t live for much longer. Cherish your time.”

After leaving these words, the Greene brothers turned and left.

At this moment, far away in the Central Province at the Taylor family’s grotto-heaven, a young girl who was cultivating suddenly opened her eyes.

She was beautiful and fair-skinned, as if she had walked out of a painting, with a delicate white veil and a dot on her forehead indicating her extraordinary status.

This person was none other than Emily Taylor.

At the moment the Jade Pendant was crushed, Emily was abruptly awakened.

In her mind, Ethan’s location appeared quickly.

“Ethan…is in danger.” Emily’s eyebrows furrowed, and without wasting any time, she got up and quickly left.

…

The Westeria Land.

The Greene brothers were searching for treasures inside Ethan’s Spatial Magic Artifact.

Unfortunately, the Spatial Magic Artifact had already bound with Ethan and they couldn’t probe it at all.

“Damn it!”

Cuthbert was furious and frustrated, tossing the Spatial Magic Artifact to the side.

Dwayne Greene, standing beside him, said calmly, “There’s no need to be angry. He probably doesn’t have anything valuable.”

Though reluctant, Cuthbert could only nod in agreement.

“Sect master, why do we set off only three days later?” Cuthbert changed the topic.

Dwayne raised his eyebrow and said, “What, you can’t wait any longer?”

Cuthbert grunted in response, his face cold. “I’m impatient to see Forrest Middleton begging for mercy.”

“Hahahaha!” Dwayne laughed loudly.

“We may not see him begging for mercy, but watching him defeated and humiliated shouldn’t be a big problem,” Dwayne said calmly.

“I’ll use these three days to create enough panic, making the Southern Province tremble in fear at the name of the Greene family!” Dwayne laughed coldly.

He turned his palm and took out a mysterious bead.

“During this time, I’ll keep creating panic in the Southern Province, breaking their psychological defenses,” Dwayne said coldly.

The next day.

The scene of Ethan being tortured was shown over the Southern Province.

The powerful methods of the Greene brothers also left everyone in the Southern Province in a state of panic.

“Ethan has also fallen into their hands, no wonder we haven’t seen any trace of him for so long.”

“First it was Denton Horton, who was utterly powerless, then Ethan, who was tormented and in agony. This Cuthbert seems even more terrifying than Denton.”

“We’re done for…”

For a time, panic spread throughout the Southern Province.

Whether it was a powerful cultivator or an ordinary one, a sense of fear lurked in their hearts.

Some people took advantage of these days to head towards the East State, leaving the Southern Province behind.

Others were already prepared to face death, waiting for it to arrive.

The border of the Westeria Land was deserted, with no one daring to approach it half a step further.

Time flew by.

In the blink of an eye, it was three days later.

That night, Cuthbert and Dwayne came to Ethan’s prison cell.

They looked down at Ethan and said, “Tomorrow is your day of death. Are you prepared?”

By now, Ethan had been tortured beyond recognition. His entire body hung in midair, his messy hair covering his face, and fresh blood scattered on the ground, making it an incredibly gruesome scene.

“Say a few nice words, and maybe we’ll let you die a little faster.” Cuthbert said sinisterly.

Ethan struggled to lift his head, and spat on the faces of the two brothers.

Cuthbert’s face grew cold, and he snorted, “An ignorant fool, I hope you can be so tough tomorrow!”

After leaving those words, the two men turned and left.

The next day, early morning.

A large number of people and horses had gathered in the Westeria Land.

Under the leadership of the Greene brothers, they were preparing to enter the Southern Province in one fell swoop.

At the same time, the scene was also shown over the Southern Province.

“It’s over, they’re really coming.”

“The Southern Province is doomed.”

“If we had a chance, we would have surrendered.”

Even though they said that, they all had a bad feeling in their hearts.

Based on the Greene brothers’ character, they would certainly not treat them well.

Cuthbert grabbed Ethan’s hair with one hand, sneering, “Don’t worry, we’re going to the Southern Province now.”

Ethan opened his mouth, but couldn’t utter a single word.

In these few days, he had endured unimaginable torture. Both his body and spirit had suffered immense damage.

“This time, we not only have to kill Forrest but also take over the Southern Province in one fell swoop! If we get a chance, we can even wipe out the entire Rayleigh Province!” Dwayne said coldly.

“Everyone, follow my command! Head to the Southern Province!”

As Dwayne’s order echoed, the entire Pilgrimage City sprang into action.

They emitted a powerful aura as they prepared to head to the Southern Province.

Right at this moment, the void shook.

Suddenly, a gigantic portal appeared in front of everyone.

Before anyone could question it, a large group of people clad in icy-cold armor emerged from the portal.

At a glance, there were at least hundreds of fully armed cultivators who stepped into the Westeria Land.
