Ethan Smith eagerly absorbed the dark energy like a hungry ghost. For a moment, the qi inside his body seemed to be suppressed, not showing any signs of activity!
This was the first time he had ever felt an endless supply of dark energy!
He even felt he couldn’t possibly absorb it all!
“The ancestor didn’t deceive me,” Ethan whispered to himself.
He didn’t know how long it would take him to meditate this time!
Because completely absorbing all this dark energy was basically impossible! Time slipped away, and in the blink of an eye, a day and a night had passed.
Ethan’s strength had successfully advanced from the Foundation Establishment Stage third layer to the fourth!
Golden Light emanated from his body, layer upon layer attached to his skin as if it were being absorbed by his flesh.
Ethan’s body became even more unyielding!
But it wasn’t over yet, because the dark energy seemed not to have diminished at all!
In the blink of an eye, three whole days had passed!
During these three days, Ethan didn’t eat, drink, or sleep. He desperately absorbed the dark energy emanating from his imprint!
The surrounding temperature became extremely cold, and even the flowers and plants began to slowly wither!
No one knew how long it would take for Ethan to finish meditating this time.
Schroeder Family.
Ever since the Schroeder Family declared their allegiance to Ethan, their status had visibly plummeted.
It was now difficult to see the Schroeder Family’s dominant position.
“Dad, are we just going to take this lying down?” Miles Schroeder muttered as he sat nearby.
Conrad Schroeder cast a cold glance at Miles and cursed, “It’s all because of you, you useless bastard! If it weren’t for you, the Schroeder Family wouldn’t have faced this disaster, and your older brother wouldn’t have died!” Miles was scolded into silence.
“A good-for-nothing who only knows how to screw things up!” Conrad scolded.
“Heh, taking your frustration out on your son because you’re not good enough yourself?”
Just then, a voice came from outside.
Looking up, a giant figure like a steel tower was standing in the doorway!
His body was incomparably robust, with bulging muscles exerting an oppressive force.
“Who are you?” Conrad’s face subtly changed, his face filled with vigilance.
This huge man appeared before him like a ghost!
This was enough to prove that this man was no ordinary person!
“Of course, I’m here to help you,” the burly man said, slowly approaching Conrad and sitting down uninvited.
Conrad’s eyebrows slightly furrowed. He looked at Miles and gestured, “You leave first.”
‘Give me some money first. I’m going out partying tonight, and I’ve run out of cash,” Miles said shamelessly.
Hearing this, Conrad became even angrier.
How could he, who had lived so imposingly, have given birth to such a useless son!
“Go get it from your Uncle Shane!” Conrad said through clenched teeth.
“Love you, Dad!” Miles cheered and scampered out.
Conrad reached out, and the door closed behind him.
Then, he looked at the burly man in front of him and said coldly, “What do you mean by this?”
The burly man just smiled, “Don’t you want to get out from under Ethan Smith’s control for the rest of your life?”
Conrad remained silent.
Of course, he didn’t want to! How could the once unrivaled Conrad in Chuzzle be willing to submit to a junior!
“Who are you?” Conrad asked the burly man in front of him.
The burly man smiled faintly, ‘My name is Adrien Bauer, from Earth Fiend Valley.”
Hearing the three words “Earth Fiend Valley,” Conrad’s face slightly changed!
As a Grandmaster, he had naturally heard of Earth Fiend Valley!
It was a notorious sect that everyone wanted to strike! They were said to be hidden in the southwest, practicing wicked arts, and harming countless people!
“If you cooperate with us in Earth Fiend Valley, what difficulty is there in returning to become the number one power in Chuzzle?” Adrien said with a hint of pride on his face.
He was confident, believing Conrad wouldn’t refuse Earth Fiend Valley’s invitation.
However, Conrad shook his head.
“I’m afraid I’m not interested in your Earth Fiend Valley. Please leave immediately,” Conrad said coldly.
Hearing this, Adrien’s brows furrowed deeply.
“What, the Earth Fiend Valley isn’t good enough for you?” Adrien asked unpleasantly.
Conrad said coldly, “I’ve already pledged my allegiance to Ethan Smith and won’t go back on my word. Please leave immediately!”
Adrien squinted, saying coldly, “Conrad, I hope you’ll think it over.”
“I’ve said it before, and I won’t agree. Leave my Schroeder Family immediately!” Conrad scolded.
Hearing this, Adrien couldn’t help but laugh loudly, “I never thought that the Conrad who was once called the invincible of Chuzzle would be so scared of a junior that he lost his nerve!”
Conrad coldly replied, “At least it’s better than living as maggots in a corner like you.”
A trace of anger flashed across Adrien’s face, and a terrifying aura erupted from him!
The entire room shook as if there were an earthquake!
And the furniture in the room collapsed with a loud boom!
Conrad’s expression changed slightly.
Adrien’s strength clearly exceeded his expectations!
“What do you mean by this, sir? Are you going to start a fight?” Conrad asked with forced composure.
Adrien said coldly, “Conrad, I came to work with you to save face; don’t bite the hand that feeds you.”
Conrad snorted, his body also erupting with an aura. He confidently said, “I’ve made myself clear. Please leave immediately!”
Adrien sneered repeatedly, stood up, and said, “I hope you won’t regret it.” Alter tnrowmg aown tnese woras, Aarlen turnea to leave.
Conrad couldn’t help but sigh in relief.
He hadn’t expected Earth Fiend Valley to come knocking.
After Adrien left, Uncle Shane quickly entered the room.
“Master, why didn’t you agree with him?” Uncle Shane asked with some confusion.
Conrad gave Uncle Shane a glance and snorted, “Earth Fiend Valley is indeed powerful, but they’re hidden in the southwest and don’t even dare to show their faces! Cooperate with them? In your dreams!”
Uncle Shane suddenly understood the situation.
If a top aristocratic family from Capital City came to collaborate, Conrad wouldn’t have hesitated and agreed immediately.
But Earth Fiend Valley… Although they were strong, compared to the Taylor family of the Capital City, they were nothing.
In modern society, if the Taylor family were truly annoyed, they could call in the military, and with one order, wipe Earth Fiend Valley off the map! “Don’t let word of this get out,” Conrad said to Uncle Shane. “Also, inform Ethan Smith immediately,” Conrad continued.
Uncle Shane nodded, “Yes, sir.”
Upon receiving his orders, Uncle Shane quickly left, prepared to find Ethan Smith.
‘Where are you going?” However, the moment Uncle Shane got in the car, a gloomy voice came from behind!
Turned around, it was Adrien Bauer!
At this moment, Ethan Smith was still greedily absorbing the dark energy.
In just a few days, Ethan’s strength had increased once again!
He had successfully advanced from the Foundation Establishment Stage third layer to the fifth layer! And there was no sign of stopping!
This made Ethan almost ecstatic!
