After hearing Alvin Ward’s words, the scene indeed became much quieter.
The passionate crowd had all unconsciously taken a step back.
This was enough to show the Schroeder Family’s status in Shiglance City.
Even with so many rich people, no one was willing to go against the Schroeder Family.
Alvin Ward smugly glanced at Ethan Smith and sneered, “Ethan, what else can you do?”
Ethan’s eyebrows furrowed slightly, as he seemed unable to come up with a solution for a moment.
He looked at the crowd, but no one was willing to meet his gaze.
Ethan took a deep breath and said with furrowed brows, “Are we really giving up , or is it…kill the messenger?”
Ethan never thought that he would become the one to kill the messenger.
“Alright, time is almost up,” Alvin Ward glanced at his watch. He then said triumphantly, “The treasure is mine!”
Having said that, Alvin Ward strode towards the stone statue.
Ethan remained silent, unconsciously clenching his fists, seemingly unwilling.
At this moment, Ethan’s phone suddenly rang.
He checked the message, and saw a text message displayed on the screen:
“Dear user, the account ending in XXXX in the XX bank received 50,000,000.00 yuan, with a balance of 50,001,234.10 yuan.
Could it be that this money was transferred by Emily Taylor?
Before Ethan could think more about it, another text message from a stranger arrived:
The Schroeder Family will be your second test, good luck! I’ll be waiting for you in Capital City.
Ethan’s face was instantly filled with excitement, and the matter of the stone statue was forgotten at the back of his mind.
He hurriedly called her back, but found that she had turned off her cell phone.
This reignited Ethan’s burning heart in this moment!
“Emily…” Ethan whispered while holding his phone.
Emily Taylor must be watching him from afar!
This suddenly filled Ethan with fighting spirit!
Subsequently, Ethan walked quickly towards the seller of the stone statue.
At this time, Alvin Ward’s hand had already reached out towards the statue.
Just as Alvin Ward was about to touch the statue, Ethan reached out and grabbed his wrist.
Alvin Ward frowned and looked at Ethan, saying coldly, “Ethan, what are you trying to do?”
Ignoring Alvin Ward, Ethan handed his bank card to the seller.
“Two hundred and fifty million, I’ll take it,” Ethan said coldly.
Alvin Ward scoffed, “Boss, don’t listen to his nonsense, he doesn’t have a penny on his card!”
The seller was also somewhat skeptical.
He had just seen everything with his own eyes that Ethan hadn’t made any money.
“You’ll know if you swipe it,” Ethan reminded.
The seller nodded and took the bank card with uncertainty, tentatively inputting the amount.
“The money has actually arrived!” In a short while, the vendor exclaimed excitedly!
Ethan took back his bank card and said lightly, “As agreed, this statue is mine.” “Of course, of course!” The vendor nodded repeatedly.
Not being polite, Ethan put away the stone statue and put it straight into his pocket.
Alvin Ward’s face on the side was extremely cold, he stared at Ethan with gritted teeth, as a terrifying murderous spirit approached!
Ethan’s brows furrowed slightly.
From this aura, it seemed that Alvin Ward was at least a Grandmaster!
“You’ve ruined my plans several times, kid, I’m going to kill you!” Alvin Ward’s aura grew thicker and thicker, as if he was about to take action at any moment!
Ethan looked at Alvin Ward coldly and said, “Finally can’t help yourself? Go ahead and try!”
As he spoke, Ethan’s aura also surged dramatically!
The collision of the two auras instantly caused a gust of wind!
People around were affected by the fluctuation of the auras and involuntarily took two steps back.
At this moment, a very peaceful aura suddenly rippled!
This peaceful aura carried an unparalleled majesty, which directly dissolved Ethan and Alvin Ward’s auras!
“No one is allowed to attack in the venue,” a voice came from all directions!
This couldn’t help but lose Ethan’s color!
“He actually directly suppressed my aura! ” Ethan’s eyes couldn’t help but sweep around!
His strength probably far exceeded Ethan’s imagination!
“Ethan, I’ll spare your life for now,” Alvin Ward said with cold eyes. After throwing down these words, Alvin Ward turned and walked away.
“Master Ward!” Leonard Schultz hurriedly called out.
But Alvin Ward didn’t look back and strode out of the venue.
“What…what’s going on here?” A confused Leonard Schultz felt a headache coming on.
Both sides were his friends, and he couldn’t help but feel torn.
Ethan took a deep breath, looked at Leonard Schultz, and said solemnly, “Mr.
Schultz, are you sure that Alvin Ward is your old friend?”
Leonard Schultz nodded vigorously and said, “Yes, I’ve known him for almost twenty years. He’s gentle, mild-tempered, and never acted before!” “Then that means he’s not Alvin Ward,” Ethan had already guessed something.
“What do you mean?” Leonard Schultz asked confusedly. Ethan didn’t explain, instead, he said, “I’ll take you home.”
The group left the venue with hurried strides.
As soon as he left the venue, the suppression on Ethan’s body dissipated like smoke.
Ethan couldn’t help but look back at the venue and whispered, “Formation
There was only one possibility to easily suppress a martial artist’s Inner Strength and spiritual power.
It was that a huge formation had been set up here!
“It’s really amazing,” Ethan sighed.
As his experiences grew, Ethan’s understanding was also changing quietly.
Many things he had never touched before began to appear little by little in front of him.
If he hadn’t started cultivating, Ethan might never have known that there were so many wonders in the world.
“Let’s go, I’ll take you back,” Ethan looked at Leonard Schultz and Ashton Nicholson.
Although the two found it a bit strange, seeing Ethan’s serious expression, they finally nodded in agreement.
As Ethan was about to leave, a woman suddenly ran out of the venue.
This woman was wearing sunglasses late at night, and her mouth was tightly wrapped in a scarf.
“Dr. Ethan, did you mean it when you said you would see patients three times earlier?” The woman whispered.
Ethan nodded and said, “As long as you pay, it’s always valid.”
The woman looked around and, upon making sure no one was around, handed
Ethan a phone number.
“Dr. Ethan, please call me tomorrow, and we’ll talk in detail.”
After dropping this sentence, the woman quickly ran away.
With the phone number in hand, Ethan couldn’t help but smirk, “This woman is really cautious enough, is the Schroeder Family that scary?
