Chapter 460: Chapter 460: Ethan Smith Returns_1

Translator: 549690339

With Ethan Smith’s current state of mind, stepping into the half-step Martial Marquis realm would not be difficult; all he needed was a large amount of qi for support.

Ordinary herbs might no longer be effective for him.

“If I had ten-thousand-year-old herbs or a spiritual spring, perhaps I could directly step into the half-step Martial Marquis realm,” Ethan Smith thought to himself.

He counted the days; only a month and a half remained until September 9th.

If he could find enough qi within this month and a half, stepping into the half-step Martial Marquis realm would be no problem at all.

As for Dexter Blair, he would not be worth mentioning.

So, Ethan Smith decided to embark on his next journey to seek qi.

As soon as he carried Evelyn Norton out of the Hydrating Tower, his phone was flooded with countless messages.

When he opened it, he saw the texts and missed calls from Edward Green.

“Mr. Smith, Dudley Lynch has come to Chuzzle, announcing he will take your life.”

“Mr. Smith, if you don’t come back, he says he’ll start killing those around you, not letting anyone go…”

There were also numerous messages from unknown numbers.

“Trash, cowardly turtle!”

“You managed to escape yourself, but everyone around you is dead at the hands of Dudley Lynch. You dare to call yourself the King of Chuzzle?”

“I really misjudged you. I didn’t expect you to be such a scum!”

Seeing the flood of messages on his phone like a tide, Ethan Smith’s face turned unpleasant.

He hurriedly called Edward Green.

As soon as the call was answered, Edward Green eagerly asked, “Mr. Smith, where are you?”

Ethan Smith didn’t answer the question, but anxiously asked instead, “What’s the current situation?”

Edward Green sighed, “All members of the Four Great Families are dead. Dudley Lynch has announced that those who obey him will be spared.”

“Now many people stand by Dudley Lynch’s side, but…he seems to place great importance on Conrad Schroeder and Adonis Williams.”

Hearing this, Ethan Smith’s face changed instantly.

He hurriedly asked, “What about them now?”

Edward Green said, “Both Adonis Williams and Conrad Schroeder have refused Dudley Lynch, so…Dudley Lynch wants to kill them.”

“Mr. Smith, you better come back soon. Everyone in Chuzzle is saying that you’re a cowardly rat, a hiding turtle…”

Ethan Smith took a deep breath and said solemnly, “I understand, I’ll head back to Chuzzle right now.”

After saying this, Ethan Smith hurriedly carried Evelyn Norton and rushed toward the airport.

He bought tickets for the quickest flight and embarked on his return to Chuzzle.

Chuzzle.

Many martial artists from other places who had come upon hearing the news were waiting for the great war to begin.

“Tsk, tsk, I originally wanted to see how Ethan Smith would be worn down, but I didn’t expect him not even to dare to fight.”

“Yeah, it’s been several days already, and there’s still no sign of him.”

“What a waste of my time, let’s go!”

“Latest news: Dudley Lynch has gone to the Schroeder Family!” At that moment, another piece of news emerged.

“It seems Dudley Lynch is going to make a move on Conrad Schroeder.”

“Let’s go, let’s see.”

A group hiding in the dark hurriedly started heading to the Schroeder Family’s residence.

Not only these martial artists from elsewhere, but even ordinary people of Chuzzle were also paying attention to this decisive battle.

Although they didn’t understand the intricacies of the situation, they all wanted to see what was going on.

“I heard that Conrad Schroeder of the Schroeder Group got involved as well.”

“Yeah, General Manager Schroeder is a celebrity in our Chuzzle, and it is said that he and Ethan Smith are quite close.”

“Well, it has nothing to do with us. Let’s just sleep.”

Schroeder Family.

At this moment, it was already late at night, but Conrad Schroeder was still not asleep.

The originally lively Schroeder Family had become extremely quiet at this time.Many of Conrad Schroeder’s followers, fearing death, fled from the Schroeder Family to avoid being implicated.

“Master, it’s getting late, you should go rest.” Uncle Armando took a coat and draped it over Conrad Schroeder’s shoulders.

Conrad Schroeder sighed deeply and looked at Uncle Armando, saying, “Shane, you should go too. I don’t want to drag you down with me.”

But Uncle Armando shook his head and said, “Master, I’ve been following you for nearly thirty years. As long as you don’t leave, I’m not going anywhere.”

Conrad Schroeder opened his mouth, feeling a touch of bitterness in his heart.

“Shane, take the bank card and leave quickly.” Conrad took a bank card from his pocket and handed it to Uncle Armando.

However, Uncle Armando pushed the bank card back and smiled, “Master, I won’t leave.”

Conrad Schroeder wanted to say something else, but at that moment, he suddenly felt a strong aura coming from outside.

This aura was incredibly terrifying, the likes of which Conrad had never experienced before!

“It’s too late to leave now.” Conrad sighed.

He looked at Uncle Armando and whispered, “Shane, I’m sorry.”

Before the words had even fallen, a figure abruptly appeared behind Conrad Schroeder.

Turning around, he saw Dudley Lynch sitting on the sofa, casually sipping tea.

Conrad Schroeder’s face changed, and he looked at Dudley Lynch, asking coldly, “What brings Mr. Lynch here so late at night?”

Dudley took a sip of tea and said indifferently, “Don’t pretend to be ignorant. You humiliated me today. Do you not know the consequences?”

It was impossible not to be afraid when faced with a half-step Martial Marquis.

Conrad Schroeder, suppressing the fear in his heart, tried to maintain his composure and said, “With Mr. Lynch’s strength, what do you lack with or without me?”

Dudley squinted and sneered, “You’re right, in my eyes, you really aren’t much!”

“However, I, Dudley, have always valued and cherished talent. If you change your mind now, it’s not too late.” Dudley said lightly.

Conrad Schroeder cupped his hands and said, “I’m truly unworthy of such grace, Mr. Lynch. Please find someone else.”

Hearing this, Dudley’s face suddenly turned cold.

“Ungrateful wretch, since you’re hell-bent on death, I’ll oblige you.” Dudley slowly stood up, his body emanating a murderous spirit!

“Mr. Lynch, this matter has nothing to do with Shane. He is just an ordinary person now, please let him go.” Conrad Schroeder frowned and spoke in a pleading tone.

Dudley raised his eyebrows and sneered, “You want me to let him go? Fine.”

Just as the words fell, Dudley raised his finger, and a breath-like bullet pierced Uncle Armando’s chest!

“Pff!”

Blood spurted from Uncle Armando’s mouth, and his life force was rapidly dissipating!

“You!” Conrad’s face changed drastically!

“Dudley, you’ve gone too far!!”

Conrad’s aura suddenly erupted, and streaks of dark golden light swirled around him!

“I’ll kill you!” With a roar, Conrad charged towards Dudley!

Dudley laughed coldly and effortlessly raised his fist to meet Conrad’s.

“Clang!”

With just one punch, Conrad was sent flying backward, his fist almost dissolving!

“This man’s body… it’s a holy body. Kill him and take his body!” At this moment, a voice rang in Dudley’s mind.

“Alright, I got it.” Dudley agreed, and then walked towards Conrad Schroeder.

Conrad gritted his teeth, trying to resist, but as soon as he tried to get up, Dudley raised his hand and slapped Conrad’s chest!

This strike left Conrad completely devoid of the strength to resist!

“Since you’re so loyal, I’ll send you to hell.” Dudley said coldly.

The light in his hand condensed, and a terrifying aura echoed in the room.

Then, with a gentle slap, this force shot towards Conrad Schroeder!

“Boom!”

Just as this energy was about to hit Conrad, a large hand grabbed the energy ball!

“Dudley, I didn’t expect you to come here to die.”

That familiar voice rang in Conrad’s ears.

“Mr… Mr. Smith!” Conrad exclaimed excitedly!
