Chapter 177 - 177: 177: Resounding Through Chuzzle! 1
He had personally sought out Tristin Schroeder and knew his attitude.
Years ago, Tristin Schroeder had already been a dominating figure in Chuzzle.
At that time, Ethan Smith hadn’t even been around.
“This time, Ethan might have met his match.” Uncle William sighed.
As everyone was worried, the door was suddenly opened.
Everyone subconsciously turned to look, only to see Ethan Smith carrying a box, walking in from outside.
“Why are you all here?” Ethan Smith said with a smile.
Seeing Ethan’s relaxed look, everyone couldn’t help but stare in amazement.
“Ethan, you… you’re alright?” Uncle William was the first to stand up, looking at Ethan with a shocked expression. Ethan smiled and said, “What could happen to me?” Everyone became even more puzzled.
Could it be… Ethan and Tristin Schroeder had reconciled?
“Didn’t Tristin Schroeder come looking for you?” Ashton Nicholson furrowed his brows.
“He did.” Ethan casually shook the herbs in his hand.
Then he laughed and said, “If he hadn’t come looking for me, where would I have gotten these herbs?”
Ashton Nicholson swallowed hard.
“You mean… this herb was given to you by Tristin Schroeder?” Ashton Nicholson asked blankly.
Ethan nodded and said, “This was supposed to be mine in the first place. I just took it back.”
“Tristin Schroeder was that easy to talk to?” Uncle William found it hard to believe.
He clearly remembered Tristin Schroeder swearing not to let Ethan off. How could he have brought the herbs?
“Uncle William, you got it wrong.” At that moment, Ethan couldn’t help but shake his head.
“If I hadn’t taught him a lesson, he wouldn’t have given me the herbs.” Ethan Smith snorted.
Lessons?
Hearing that word, everyone gasped!
“What did you do to Tristin Schroeder?” Uncle William asked anxiously.
Ethan glanced at Uncle William and said coldly, “Severe injury. But with the
Schroeder family’s resources, he should survive.”
Uncle William’s face turned extremely difficult to read!
Ashton Nicholson was even more shocked and sat down heavily on the bed.
“You actually hit Tristin Schroeder?” Uncle William grabbed Ethan’s arm tightly.
Ethan frowned and said, “He started it first.”
Uncle William hurriedly made a phone call.
After confirming that Ethan wasn’t lying, Uncle William’s face turned deathly pale!
“Ethan, leave Chuzzle now! I’ll arrange a place for you. Go right away!” Uncle William anxiously said.
“Go? Where should I go? Why should I leave?” Ethan shook his head.
Uncle William anxiously said, “I don’t know how to explain it to you. In short, you can’t afford to offend the Schroeder family!”
“I’m not leaving.” Ethan refused without thinking.
“Not to mention whether I can even leave, even if I really left, the Schroeder family would target people around me.” Ethan shook his head.
Uncle William anxiously said, “You kid, this is not the time to show off! Listen to me and leave now!”
However, Ethan stubbornly refused to leave.
After the fight with Tristin Schroeder, Ethan seemed to have discovered something:
The power of cultivation and martial cultivation were far from being on the same level.
Although Ethan’s energy seemed to be that of a second rank master of internal power, he didn’t feel the slightest pressure when facing the Grandmaster Realm.
This indicated that within the same rank, martial cultivators and cultivators were on completely different levels.
Therefore, Ethan was not afraid of the Schroeder family at all.
“Uncle William, Ashton, thank you for your kindness, but you don’t have to worry.” Ethan said.
“If you’re afraid of being implicated, you can distance yourselves from me as soon as possible.” Ethan laughed.
Uncle William said solemnly, “Ethan, what are you talking about? Although I can’t do anything about the Schroeder family, they can’t do anything about me either!”
Ethan thought for a moment and nodded, “True.”
Then, Ethan looked at Ashton Nicholson.
“Ashton, you’re different from Uncle William. You’re just a businessman with many constraints and considerations. If you leave now, I won’t blame you.” Ethan laughed.
Ashton’s face was somber, and his heart was filled with mixed emotions.
As Ethan had said, if the Schroeder family wanted revenge, people who were close to Ethan would definitely be implicated.
However, at the moment, Ashton was considering more than that.
The first time he saw Ethan, Ethan was only slightly stronger than Asher Lane, with a time limit.
But in this short month, Ethan had not only beheaded a Grandmaster and faced an old Grandmaster but had now easily defeated the young master of the Schroeder family.
Such a growth rate could only be described as terrifying!
If Ethan was given enough time, the Schroeder family would be nothing!
“I’m not leaving.” Ashton made his decision.
He looked at Ethan and said half-jokingly, half-seriously, “In case you rise to prominence in the future, I don’t want to regret today’s decision.”
Ethan rolled his eyes and said, “I might die tomorrow, and then you’ll have lost your bet.”
“So you have to make sure you stay alive.” Ashton laughed, and Ethan laughed as well.
“Then according to the original plan, you’ll accompany me to find herbs tonight.” Ethan said. Ashton nodded and said, “Okay, see you tonight.”
On the other side.
Tristin Schroeder was taken back to the Schroeder family.
He was covered in injuries, with broken ribs and even his five viscera and six bowels were affected!
Looking at the bloodied Tristin, the steward’s face was extremely cold!
“Uncle Armando, save my brother!” Miles Schroeder pleaded anxiously.
Uncle Armando took a deep breath and said, “Second young master, what happened? How did the young master get like this?” Miles gritted his teeth and said, “It was Ethan Smith who did this!”
“Ethan Smith?” Uncle Armando’s face changed slightly.
Could this Ethan Smith be so capable?
“Keep this matter secret, and don’t let it get out.” Uncle Armando took a deep breath.
If the news got out, the Schroeder family’s reputation would be ruined.
Moreover, the credibility they had built up in Chuzzle over the years might collapse.
But how could paper hold fire?
That afternoon, after being rescued, Tristin finally clung onto his life.
However, Tristin lost consciousness and was in a vegetative state.
Although the Schroeder family tried their best to suppress the news, the matter still spread like wildfire throughout Chuzzle.
For a time, everyone was talking about it.
Ethan Smith was once again thrust into the spotlight!
This name finally resonated throughout Chuzzle!
In the shadows.
Cato Cain was sitting in a car, looking somewhat strange.
At Emily Taylor’s strong request, Cato had been left in Chuzzle by the Taylor family to secretly observe Ethan.
So, he found out about the matter quickly.
“Tristin Schroeder was turned into a vegetable by Ethan Smith?” Cato’s expression was incredibly strange.
How could this kid’s progress be so fast? And…. Ethan seemed totally fine!
