Chapter 1224: Chapter 1224: Purple Jade Primordial Snake_1 Chapter 1224: Chapter 1224: Purple Jade Primordial Snake_1 Man proposes, but Heaven disposes.
Unexpectedly, the order that had remained untouched was claimed today.
Ethan Smith lowered his hat brim, turned his head, and stealthily observed this person who had accepted the order.
When he saw the person clearly, his face changed slightly.
“Ambrose Harris?” Ethan Smith was shocked internally.
He never imagined that Ambrose would appear here and accept this order.
“Master, he…”
Kingsley Kelley, who was about to speak beside him, was stopped by Ethan extending his hand.
Without lingering, Ambrose left after receiving the order.
As Ethan concealed his face and had no spiritual power fluctuations within his body, it didn't attract Ambrose's attention.
After Ambrose had walked away, Kingsley couldn't help but ask, “Master, why didn't you teach him a lesson?”
Ethan was silent for a moment, then sighed softly, “I know this person.”
“You… you know him?” Kingsley was even more confused.
Ethan waved his hand and didn't explain further.
Back when Ambrose left in resentment, he held all his hatred towards Ethan.
A great war between the two was inevitable and unavoidable.
By now, it was gradually getting darker.
The purple Jade Primordial Snake was about to be unleashed.
Kingsley led Ethan to the nearby manor of the Deer Emperor Island's Island Master to register.
Quite a few people registered today, a total of eight people.
All eight were skilled in their abilities, only Ethan seemed plain.
“Those who registered, follow me.”
After a short while, a burly man came out.
Kingsley still wanted to follow along, but he was rejected mercilessly. He could only buy a ticket and sit in the audience.
Ethan followed behind the others, passing through a long corridor, and finally stopped at the battle seats.
These battle seats were not as cold and hard as he had imagined, but rather like a banquet.
There was food, drinks, even entertainment – everything one could imagine.
There were beauties and handsome men, all for the contestants to choose from.
“It's my first time seeing battle seats like these,” Ethan remarked surprisingly.
Hearing this, the person in charge sneered, “Our Island Master is merciful. Naturally, he wants to fulfill your desires before you set out.”
Upon hearing those words, Ethan looked at the other contestants and asked, “Knowing that you might die today, why did you participate?”
“Why? Because the conditions are too good to pass up.” someone replied.
“Under great rewards, there must be brave men. You're no different.”
Ethan initially wanted to ask what the reward was, but at that moment, cheers erupted outside.
Uninterested in eating, drinking, or playing, Ethan immediately got up and walked out of the banquet hall.
Standing on the battle seats, Ethan could glimpse a corner of the Ice Mountain.
Inside this vast manor, there was an enormous snake.
Its body exuded a billowing purple aura, making it appear even more menacing.
Two sharp tusks protruded from its mouth, and its long, whip-like tongue flicked out from time to time, capturing people's attention.
Around the Purple Jade Primordial Snake, a golden collar-like rope had been wrapped.
This rope tightly restrained the snake's neck, preventing it from running wild.
“Quite overbearing,” Ethan said sincerely upon seeing this immense Purple Jade Primordial Snake.
“Heh, it seems quite fond of you.” A participant beside him came forward.
This contestant had his hands behind his back, appearing like a master with an almost non-existent presence, making him even more mysterious.
Ethan smiled, “You seem quite confident, friend.”
That contestant smiled faintly, “My purpose for coming today is to kill this beast. No one can take that away.”
“Oh, then you go first.” Ethan smiled.
The contestant snorted and said, “No matter who goes first, the outcome is the same. You're nothing but cannon fodder.”
Ethan said no more, as he didn't know this contestant or the Purple Jade Primordial Snake well enough to draw a proper conclusion.
However, this contestant's every move was indeed quite pretentious.
The atmosphere on the stage increasingly heated up, with many people cheering.
Amidst the cheers, the Deer Emperor Island's Island Master slowly walked out.
He wore a purple robe, had long hair, stood tall, and wore a faint smile on his face.
However, within the smile, there was a hidden sharpness that couldn't be ignored.
“Is he the Island Master?” Ethan, sizing up this dignified man, whispered.
“Indeed, the Deer Emperor is the island's master,” a contestant nearby replied.
“It's said that Deer Emperor is a person who has crossed a thousand years. Tired of worldly life, he established Deer Emperor Island.”
Ethan looked at the Deer Emperor on the stage with astonishment in his heart.
Back when his fame spanned the world, he had never heard of this Deer Emperor.
It seemed that in this world, there were many hidden secrets after all.
Deer Emperor took his exclusive seat, spoke a few low words to the person beside him, and the person in charge immediately leaped forward, arriving in front of Ethan and the other contestants.
The person in charge glanced at Ethan and the others, raised their finger, and marked the contestants one by one, apparently numbering them.
“Alright, follow this order to enter the arena,” the person in charge said.
Ethan secretly counted and found that he was the seventh.
As for the pretentious man from earlier, he was the second.
“Alright, enter the arena.” The person in charge waved his hand.
The first contestant leaped forward, landed on the stage below, and walked towards the Purple Jade Primordial Snake.
“Another contestant giving up their life.” The pretentious man spoke indifferently.
After saying that, he looked at Ethan and the others, saying, “You should thank Heaven for its mercy, allowing you to be behind me.”
