Asher Lane looked coldly at the two followers and said, âYou two go in first.â âYes, Younger Lord.â The two followers nodded and then walked to the door.
Edward Green had no strength left to stop these two people. Even though he was extremely anxious, he was utterly helpless, and he could only watch them pass.
âYounger Lord of Lane Family, the door is locked.â The follower frowned after reaching the door.
âThen break it open for me!â Asher Lane shouted angrily.
âYes, Younger Lord.â
At this time, Ethan Smith was sitting in the room, refining the Pill in his body.
The refining speed of the Qi Gathering Pill far exceeded Ethan Smithâs imagination. The Pill transformed into qi, followed along the dantian, and hit each acupoint in the body.
A faint glow enveloped Ethan Smith, and the light began to converge bit by bit, slowly gathering at his dantian.
Time passed minute by minute, and the sound of the door being broken was still echoing outside.
But Ethan Smith seemed to be oblivious to the outside world, unable to hear the sound at all.
âBuzz!â
Finally, the Pills were completely refined! The rolling qi completely merged with Ethan Smithâs body, and in the end, it formed a bright light in the dantian area.
âHuff.â
Ethan Smithâs eyes opened with a âwhoosh!â
At this moment, a gust of wind blew around him!
Terrible power flowed through his body, and even his flesh became much harder at this moment!
âTwenty-eight Qi Gathering Pills failed to make me break through to the Foundation Establishment Stage.â Ethan Smith frowned slightly, muttering anietlv-
Now Ethan Smith had just reached the peak of the Qi Refining Stage, only one step away from the Foundation Establishment Stage.
âIt seems that itâs not so easy to break through the major levels.â Ethan Smith thought to himself.
Three herbs, not even breaking through to the Foundation Establishment Stage, who knows how many herbs will be needed for his future cultivation path.
Ethan Smith felt a little pressure.
âAt least itâs faster than I expected.â Ethan Smith whispered.
He had thought it would take at least three days, but it had only taken a few hours.
âBoom! Boom!â
At this time, the sound of the door being broken came again from the entrance.
Afterward, Asher Laneâs angry shouts in the courtyard were also heard by Ethan Smith.
After stepping into the peak of the Qi Refining Stage, Ethan Smithâs hearing also improved dramatically, and the qi in his body was vast like an ocean.
âSomeone is here?â Ethan Smith narrowed his eyes and walked right to the door and pushed it open.
As the door opened, there were two followers standing at the door, and not far away, Edward Green was clinging tightly to Asher Laneâs thigh.
Seeing this scene, Ethan Smithâs face instantly cooled.
âMr. Smithâ¦â Edward Green struggled to say something, then fell to the ground, completely fainted, and his hand loosened at this moment.
âAsher Lane?â Ethan Smith looked coldly at Asher Lane in front of him, his face full of chill.
Asher Lane smiled faintly, âMr. Smith, I specially came to visit you from South City, but I didnât expect your subordinate to be so disrespectful, so I took the liberty of teaching him a lesson on your behalf.â
Ethan Smith glanced at Asher Lane without saying anything.
He first walked to Edward Green, stretched out his hand and placed it on his chest, protecting Edward Greenâs lifeline with his qi.
Then, Ethan Smith raised his head and looked coldly at Asher Lane.
âWhat are you here for?â Ethan Smithâs tone was full of chill.
Asher Lane didnât care and smiled, âEthan, Iâm here to get my things back.â
âYour things?â Ethan Smith couldnât help but sneer.
âI donât have your things here.â
Asher Lane narrowed his eyes and laughed, âEthan, donât play dumb. Whereâs the Knotweed?â
âThatâs mine, what does it have to do with you?â Ethan Smith snorted coldly.
Asher Laneâs face cooled again.
âEthan Smith, you better think it over, Emily Taylor is no longer in River City!â Asher Lane shouted!
âSo what?â Ethan Smith raised his eyebrows.
âSo you better consider the consequences!â Asher Lane said coldly.
Ethan Smith looked at Asher Lane in front of him and said indifferently, âThe Knotweed has already been eaten by me. If you want it, I can give it to you.â âYou!â Hearing this, Asher Laneâs face turned livid!
But he did not take this sentence seriously, so he took a deep breath and said,
âWell, Ethan Smith, Iâm also a reasonable person.â
âThree days later, weâll have a public competition in South City. If I win, you give me back the Knotweed, how about it?â Asher Lane seductively induced.
Although Emily Taylor had already left River City, Asher Lane did not want to take this risk.
And if they held a public competition, the Taylor family couldnât say anything either.
âWhat if you lose?â Ethan Smith asked.
Asher Lane smiled faintly, âIf I lose, the Knotweed is yours, and I wonât bother you about it!â
âThe Knotweed is mine in the first place, so why would I use my things as a bet? Are you sick?â Ethan Smith said coldly.
Asher Laneâs face changed, and a surge of anger ignited instantly in his chest!
He clenched his teeth, suppressed his anger, and said, âThen what do you want to do?â
Ethan Smith said coldly, âIf you lose, you kneel down and apologize to Edward
Green, and give me a century-old King of Medicine. How about it?â
Asher Laneâs heart was overjoyed! He didnât hesitate at all and immediately agreed, âOkay, deal!ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
He didnât take Ethan Smithâs conditions seriously at all.
Because, in his opinion, there was no way he could lose!
âOkay, Iâll come to find you in three days.â Ethan Smith said coldly.
âEthan Smith, I hope you keep your word.â Asher Lane snorted and waved his hand, turning to leave.
âWait.â
At this moment, Ethan Smith suddenly called out to Asher Lane.
Asher Lane turned to look, puzzled , âWhatâs up?â
Ethan Smith slowly walked up to Asher Lane and suddenly raised his hand and slapped it hard on the followerâs face!
With that slap, the followerâs facial bones were smashed!
His entire face collapsed and his body slid on the ground, vomiting blood!
âSam!â The other follower rushed up.
âYounger Lord, Samâ¦heâs dead!â The other followerâs face was extremely ugly!
âEthan Smith, what the fuck are you doing?â Asher Lane roared.
Ethan Smith said indifferently, âYou hit my friend, Iâm just collecting a bit of interest. â
Asher Laneâs face was extremely ugly, and he had never encountered someone so arrogant in front of him!
At this moment, Asher Lane wished he could rush up and tear Ethan Smith to pieces!
âI just taught a lesson to your dog for you, but you killed my follower! Ethan Smith, you have such a ruthless heart!â Asher Lane gritted his teeth.
Ethan Smith looked coldly at Asher Lane and said, âFirst, Edward Green is not my dog, heâs my friend.â
âSecond, this is just a little payback.. Three days later, I will make you kneel before Edward Green and apologize personally!â
