Mrs. and Mr. Smith-Chapter 917 - : The Monkey Proclaims Himself King
Chapter 917: Chapter 917: The Monkey Proclaims Himself King
Thinking of this, Ethan Smith looked at Queenie Welch, intending to ask if she could take him to meet this old immortal.
But before Ethan could speak, Queenie whispered, “Unfortunately, this old immortal is very bad, bullying us daily with their abilities.”
“Oh?” Ethan raised an eyebrow.
He suddenly thought of something and looked at the herbs in the basket.
“Are these herbs also for that old immortal?” Ethan asked.
Queenie was surprised and said, “How did you know?”
...
Ethan waved his hand but did not answer.
It seemed that the so-called old immortal wasn’t very powerful.
Otherwise, these herbs could not bring any improvement to him.
“I’ll go with you to deliver the herbs tonight.” Ethan said.
Queenie’s smile deepened, and she quickly nodded, “Okay!”
Then, Ethan followed Queenie to continue gathering herbs.
By evening, the two returned.
Queenie seemed particularly happy, chattering non-stop along the way.
Ethan, on the other hand, appeared more somber, merely nodding from time to time.
They went back to their lodging, and Ethan joined Queenie for dinner as usual.
The food in the village was always good, and they had a clear division of labor.
Some were in charge of selecting vegetables, others hunting.
After dinner, as always, they sang and danced. This time, Ethan didn’t rush to leave and joined in the fun.
After the frolicking, everyone couldn’t help but catch their breath.

“Little Queen, did the old immortal trouble you recently?” At that moment, an elderly man from the village approached Queenie.
Queenie whispered, “He…didn’t trouble me.”
“Really?” The elderly man furrowed his brows, seeming unconvinced.
Seeing Queenie not speaking, the elderly man sighed, “I’ll talk to him again tomorrow.”
“Okay!” Queenie nodded and said, “Uncle Jacinto, we’ll go back first then.”
After bidding farewell to Uncle Jacinto, Ethan followed Queenie back to their lodging.
Upon returning, Queenie packed the herbs as usual, preparing to deliver them to the old immortal.
It wasn’t until ten o’clock at night that Queenie finished packing.
“Are you sure you want to come with me?” Queenie asked cautiously.
Ethan smiled and said, “Of course, I promised you. Let’s go.”
“Yes, yes!” Queenie nodded excitedly.
The two left the house together and headed for the old immortal’s residence.
On the way, Ethan wrapped his divine sense around the nearby area, searching for the figure of the old immortal.
After a long time, Ethan finally found the old immortal.
“A Grandmaster?” Ethan couldn’t help but raise his eyebrow.
Although this level was negligible to Ethan, it was indeed a top-level existence among ordinary people.
“It’s right ahead.” Queenie pointed to a house not far away and said.
She worriedly said, “No matter what happens later, you…you must not speak, understand?”
“Alright.” Ethan casually agreed.
Queenie hummed in acknowledgment, took a deep breath, and then headed towards the old immortal’s residence.
Ethan followed her into the room.
As soon as they entered, Ethan saw a bald old man.
This old man sat cross-legged on the bed, hands clasped together as if meditating.
“Old immortal, the herbs are here,” said Queenie in a low voice as she placed the herbs next to him.
Hearing Queenie’s voice, the old immortal opened his eyes.
“Who is this man?” The old immortal’s gaze fell on Ethan.
“He…he’s my friend.” Queenie explained.
The old immortal snorted softly and said, “Alright, come over and give me a massage.”
Queenie frowned slightly, subconsciously looking at Ethan, seemingly embarrassed.
“What are you waiting for!” At that moment, the old immortal suddenly roared, slapping Queenie’s face from mid-air!
Queenie, wronged, covered her face and walked towards the old immortal.
But at that moment, Ethan grabbed Queenie’s arm.
Queenie was taken aback, looking at Ethan with a puzzled face.
Ethan didn’t pay her any mind. Instead, he coldly looked at the old immortal and said, “You old bald fool, you’re quite good at posing as a god and playing tricks, calling yourself an old immortal, I think you’re just an old cunt.”
Hearing this, the old immortal flew into a rage!
He stared coldly at Ethan and said, “Disrespecting me is disrespecting the heavens. I must punish you on behalf of the heavens!”
With that, the old immortal, true to form, aimed a slap at Ethan!
But the aura he released hadn’t even reached Ethan before it vanished in an instant.
“With no tigers in the mountains, the monkeys rule. You’re just a Grandmaster, yet dare to strut around, oppressing the people.” Ethan said coldly.
The old immortal’s face changed slightly, and narrowing his eyes, he said, “You actually know about Grandmasters? It seems we’re both practitioners. My friend, I advise you to mind your business less.”
“Ethan, you…don’t provoke him, it’ll cause trouble…” Queenie whispered.
Ethan sneered, “Trouble? To me, he’s nothing more than a dog or a chicken.”
The old immortal was extremely displeased and said, “My friend, watch your words. I respect you as a fellow practitioner, but don’t be unappreciative.”
Ethan ignored his words and said indifferently, “You must have obtained some treasure, right? Hand it over, and I might consider letting you die quickly.”
A flicker of panic crossed the old immortal’s face as it quickly turned cold.
He slowly rose from the bed and sneered, “Since you know so much, I cannot let you leave alive.”
“Boy, let me show you the power of a Grandmaster today!”
With his roar, the aura around the old immortal began to rise rapidly!
Then, he clenched his fists and concentrated his Inner Strength into them, slamming them down at Ethan ferociously!
“Ethan, be careful!” Seeing this, Queenie grew frantic.
She instinctively ran in front of Ethan, attempting to shield him from the punch.
