Chapter 997 -997: When the Wall Falls, Everyone Pushes_1

Seeing this scene, Ethan Smith felt at a loss for a moment.

He didn’t even know how to explain it to Queenie Welch.

He couldn’t possibly say that the person who talked during the day wasn’t himself, right?

Queenie probably wouldn’t believe him if he said that.

“Damn it, Drexel!” Ethan cursed silently.

But since it had already happened, it had to be resolved.

So, Ethan braced himself and walked towards Queenie.

As the distance between the two got closer, the atmosphere became more ambiguous.

Queenie dared not look directly at Ethan, her head lowered, and even her body was trembling slightly.

Ethan sat down on the bed and didn’t say a word for a while.

“Well…”

After a long time, Ethan finally spoke.

“I’m sorry about what happened during the day,” Ethan scratched his head.

Queenie said softly, “It’s… it’s fine. I don’t mind…”

Ethan’s face darkened, and he hurriedly explained, “I was joking about what I said during the day… Don’t take it seriously.”

Queenie’s expression suddenly froze, and a hint of loss flashed in her eyes.

“Is… is it because I’m not good looking?” asked Queenie bravely.

“No, no, no,” Ethan quickly waved his hands.

Looking at Queenie in front of him, Ethan had no choice but to grit his teeth and say, “Queenie, you’re beautiful and kind-hearted, but… I already have someone I like in my heart, and she’s the only one.”

Queenie’s expression on her face suddenly became a little sad.

She bit her red lips and said softly, “Is it Emily Taylor?”

Ethan was surprised and asked, “How do you know that?”

“I heard some bad guys talking about it…” Queenie whispered.

Ethan knew that Queenie would be heartbroken, but it was better to have a short pain than a long one.

So, Ethan nodded and said, “Yes, it’s Emily Taylor.”

“Is she… pretty?” Queenie asked softly.

When Emily was mentioned, a smile unconsciously appeared on Ethan’s face.

“She’s beautiful, very beautiful. In my eyes, she’s the most beautiful girl in the world,” Ethan said with a foolish grin.

“Not only is she beautiful, but she’s also good to me and very sensible.”

Ethan became more and more excited as he spoke, even taking out a picture from his phone, proudly saying, “What do you think? Beautiful, right?”

Queenie bit her lip and said with a hint of sadness, “Yes, she’s indeed very beautiful.”

It was then when Ethan realized and awkwardly said, “Sorry… Anyway, you should rest well. I’m leaving.”

After saying these words, Ethan hurriedly ran out of the room.

He only stopped running after several hundred meters.

“Damn it, that bastard Drexel!” Ethan couldn’t help but curse again and again.

He had unwittingly hurt so many people!

“Forget it, it doesn’t matter anymore.” Ethan shook his head vigorously.

Right now, what he should consider was not love and affection.

He clenched his fists, feeling the faint power of lightning within his body again.

“Ever since I acquired this thunder element, my physical strength has improved,” whispered Ethan.

“It’s just a pity that my golden core has been damaged and my spiritual power can’t be used anymore.”

As Ethan spoke, he spat out a mouthful of blood.

“Heavenly Vanilla… when on earth can I get it?” Ethan couldn’t help but sigh.

The next day.

Ethan planned to leave Southerntain Village.

If he stayed any longer, he would definitely attract more people hunting him down.So, Ethan Smith went to find Queenie Welch, intending to say goodbye to her.

When he came to Queenie’s house, they looked at each other, and the atmosphere was somewhat awkward.

“I’m planning to leave,” Ethan Smith said.

Queenie opened her mouth but then nodded in agreement.

“Alright, take care of yourself,” Ethan said before turning around to leave.

“Wait!”

At that moment, Queenie suddenly stopped Ethan.

Ethan raised an eyebrow, asking, “What’s the matter? Anything else you need?”

Queenie bit her lip as if making a decision.

After a moment, she mustered her courage and asked, “Can you take me with you?”

Hearing this, Ethan’s brows furrowed tightly.

“Did I not make myself clear last night?” Ethan asked with a frown.

Queenie quickly replied, “No, no, that’s not it. I…I just want to learn martial arts from you, is that alright?”

“Learn martial arts?” Ethan couldn’t help but laugh.

What she meant by learning martial arts was cultivating.

“Why?” Ethan asked.

Mention of this brought a look of pain to Queenie’s face.

She whispered, “I watched helplessly as Grandma Mcbride died before my very eyes. If only I had the same abilities as you.”

With that, Queenie looked up imploringly and said, “Ethan, as long as I can stay by your side, even as your servant, I would be more than willing to do whatever you ask of me!”

Ethan’s face showed a hint of difficulty.

“I am on the run. It’s dangerous to be with me,” he said.

Queenie quickly replied, “I’m not afraid!”

Ethan thought for a moment and then said, “Let me think about it. If there is a chance, I can take you as my disciple, but not now.”

“Alright!” Queenie nodded with some excitement.

Ethan just gave a nod, not wanting to waste any more time, and immediately left Southerntain Village.

In the following days, Ethan disguised himself and wandered through various herb markets in search of a Heavenly Vanilla plant.

Despite his best efforts to conceal his identity, the truth could not be hidden.

Moreover, Ethan’s search for Heavenly Vanilla quickly led others to guess his identity.

“Heavenly Vanilla? I remember that’s the herb needed for healing a damaged golden core.”

“What’s Ethan looking for Heavenly Vanilla for? Could it be that his golden core is damaged?”

“Latest news! The person who faced the Martial Saint apocalypse a few days ago was Ethan Smith!”

“Facing the Martial Saint apocalypse? So now Ethan needs Heavenly Vanilla, which means he failed the tribulation?! His golden core is ruined?!”

When this news broke out, the entire world of martial arts was suddenly boiling!

“That is to say, before Ethan Smith finds Heavenly Vanilla, he’s already a cripple!”

“Strike while it’s hot! Now is the perfect time to get rid of him!”

Many martial artists were itching to make their move, wanting to seize the opportunity to eliminate Ethan and make a name for themselves!

One day, Ethan appeared in Marquel Osborne’s herb market.

Both sides of the market were filled with herb stalls, and as Ethan walked down the street, people unconsciously moved aside.

They looked at Ethan in front of them, itching for action, filled with murderous spirit.

But Ethan seemed to ignore them, walking forward nonchalantly.

His eyes scanned the nearby stalls from time to time, searching for Heavenly Vanilla.

“Ahem!”

At that moment, Ethan’s wound caused him to suddenly cough up a mouthful of blood.

Seeing this, the surrounding people began whispering, “It seems like the rumors are true! Ethan Smith really did fail the tribulation!”

“Ethan is now just a cripple! Let’s kill him!”

The crowd stirred, seemingly ready to make their move.
