Translator: 549690339

Ethan Smith wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his pale face making the vivid red stand out even more.

“I’m fine,” Ethan shook his head.

As he spoke, Ethan tried to get up but staggered and almost fell to the ground.

Edward Green and Sofia Carrillo hurriedly supported Ethan, their faces full of worry.

“Mr. Smith, you should lie down,” said Edward Green with furrowed brows.

Ethan waved his hand and said, “I’m not that bad yet.”

If the act went on, it would be too fake.

Ethan stood up and walked to the window of the living room.

Gazing out the window, he asked softly, “What month is it now?”

Sofia Carrillo hastily replied, “It’s mid-May.”

“Mid-May… just over three months left,” Ethan sighed with a worried expression on his face.

“Master Smith, are you still thinking about that matter even now?” Sofia Carrillo bit her lip, looking even more worried than Ethan himself.

Ethan sighed and said, “I’ve put so much into helping Emily Taylor. To give up now, I won’t be satisfied!”

After saying that, Ethan suddenly punched the glass.

The glass shattered instantly, turning into a myriad of razor-sharp pieces!

Ethan’s pale face was reflected in each piece of glass.

Outside.

One shadow after another flashed past.

Their forms slowly disappeared in the dark.

Little did they know, Ethan’s divine sense never left their shadows.

Only after everyone had vanished did Ethan return to his room.

He continued to wait, waiting for the news to ferment.

That night, the Martial Arts Forum erupted!

Countless prominent figures in the world of martial arts began to express their opinions on the Martial Arts Forum.

“It seems that Ethan Smith really did suffer a severe injury, leaving a hidden illness in his dantian.”

“That’s right, I saw with my own eyes that he kept coughing up blood, and his breath was extremely weak.”

“A once heaven’s favorite, it seems he’s destined to fall.”

Those who said these words were all people with significant influence in the world of martial arts.

What they said was naturally more credible!

At this moment, another person added fuel to the fire.

This person was Reginald Tucker.

Reginald Tucker personally posted his opinions on the Martial Arts Forum.

“On that day, I saw with my own eyes that the killing intent within Kamden Lee’s formation entered Ethan’s dantian. Since then, Ethan has been coughing up blood and barely managed to leave Unchon with a strong body.” Reginald Tucker said coldly.

“Now, Ethan Smith is no longer worth mentioning. To call him a once heaven’s favorite is giving him too much credit.”

With multiple sides confirming, the news suddenly seemed much more plausible!

For a time, countless people were eager to take advantage of the situation and kill Ethan!

Ethan’s rise in recent times had been meteoric, and one could even call him a martial arts superstar!

As a result, countless people in the shadows wanted to step on Ethan to rise to prominence!

Whoever killed Ethan would undoubtedly receive attention from all sides and become the new martial arts superstar!

At this moment.

Ethan was lying in bed.

In the darkness, his mouth curled up into a smile that perfectly matched the environment.

Then, he slipped his phone into his pocket and fell into a deep sleep.

The next morning.

As soon as Ethan woke up, he saw Conrad Schroeder appear at the door.

This caught Ethan off guard.

He stood in the living room for a short time, contemplating, and then went to the entrance.

As soon as the door opened, Ethan saw Conrad Schroeder’s anxious expression.

“Mr. Smith, there’s a rumor everywhere now that you’ve suffered a serious injury, your dantian is damaged, and your breath is weak… Is it true?” Conrad Schroeder asked anxiously.

Ethan returned to the living room and sank into the couch.

“Sit down.” Ethan patted the sofa and then said.

Conrad Schroeder sat down on the sofa uneasily.

“Mr. Smith, what’s going on?” Conrad Schroeder asked impatiently.

Ethan didn’t say a word, just scanned Conrad Schroeder up and down with his eyes.

He clearly felt that Conrad Schroeder’s divine sense had swept across him multiple times, either intentionally or unintentionally!

As if trying to figure out whether Ethan was really weakened in strength or just faking it!

“What do you think?” asked Ethan indifferently.

Conrad Schroeder frowned and said, “I think it’s fake.”

Ethan sighed, leaned back on the sofa, and whispered, “I wish it was, too…”

Conrad Schroeder’s pupils suddenly contracted!

He stared intently at Ethan and said, “Mr. Smith, have you… really suffered a serious injury to your dantian?”

Ethan nodded and said, “To be precise, it has left a hidden illness. This hidden illness could potentially cost me my life.”

Conrad Schroeder’s face turned dark and uncertain, wondering what to think.

“A hidden illness in the dantian could, at best, affect one’s future path on the right way, or at worst, cause one´s Inner Strength to collapse and become a cripple.” Conrad Schroeder said gravely.

Ethan sighed and said, “Yes.”

For a moment, Conrad Schroeder didn’t speak. He looked at Ethan, with numerous expressions flashing across his face.

However, ultimately, Conrad Schroeder regained his composure.

He stood up and said, “Mr. Smith, during this time… please be careful and let me know if you need my help. If things get too dangerous, you can hide in the Divine Alchemist Pavilion.”

After finishing, Conrad Schroeder bowed to Ethan and then turned to leave.

“Wait.”

At this moment, Ethan suddenly called out to Conrad Schroeder.

Conrad Schroeder stopped in his tracks and turned to ask, “Mr. Smith, is there anything else?”

Ethan said with a seemingly amused smile, “Conrad, now would be a good opportunity to kill me. Are you really wanting to give that up?”

Conrad Schroeder’s face suddenly turned ugly!

He instinctively took two steps back, with mixed feelings on his face.

“To be honest, I did have thoughts of killing you just now.” Conrad Schroeder sighed.

“Because of you, I lost my son. It is impossible not to hate you.”

“Furthermore, killing you now not only means there will be no revenge but also guarantees me a bright future…”

Ethan nodded slightly and asked, “Why didn’t you do it, then?”

Conrad Schroeder let out a bitter laugh, waved his hand, and said, “Though you brought disaster to me and the Schroeder Family, you also granted me opportunities.”

“The Pill, the herbs, and even this body of mine were all given by you.”

“Without realizing it, my hatred for you has slowly diminished.”

Having said that, Conrad Schroeder bowed his hand again to Ethan.

“Mr. Smith, I’ll try to help you as best as I can,” Conrad Schroeder said.

After leaving these words, Conrad Schroeder no longer lingered and turned to leave the place.
