27 Chapter 27: The Panic-Stricken William Richardson_1
William Richardson burst into laughter and said, "Emily, do you really believe that? If you're so sure, then don't help him, and let's see what he can achieve on his own!"
The reason why William Richardson targeted Ethan Smith so much was not only because he looked down on him but also because of a personal reason.
That was because his old friend's son had liked Emily Taylor for many years, but she had always been indifferent to him.
Now that Emily suddenly cares so much about an ordinary man, who was even married once, it was natural for him to be upset.
Emily Taylor was silent for a moment before she chuckled and said, "Uncle William, if someone really wants to harm him, I won't give face to anyone."
Emily's tone was calm, yet full of threatening meaning!
This was obviously directed at William Richardson!
William Richardson was not a fool, and he understood what Emily meant.
So, he immediately snorted and said, "It seems that you also think that Ethan Smith is no match for Benjamin Hill, otherwise, why wouldn't you dare let them have a fair contest?"
Benjamin Hill was the son of William Richardson's old friend.
Upon hearing this, Emily Taylor couldn't help but laugh.
"So you're talking about Benjamin Hill... I can agree to that." Emily Taylor shook her head.
William Richardson was stunned, and he hurriedly asked, "Are you serious?"
"Of course." Emily Taylor smiled.
"Ethan Smith is indeed not qualified to be compared with those elegantly dressed young men in Capital City, but a mere Benjamin Hill... can be a stepping stone." Emily Taylor giggled.
This undoubtedly enraged William Richardson!
He scolded, "So you look down on Benjamin Hill too? Fine, fine, I'd like to see how Ethan Smith can compare with Benjamin Hill!"
Having said that, William Richardson turned around and was about to leave.
"Uncle William, it's not yet time. Be careful with your health." Emily Taylor reminded him.
William Richardson stopped, sneering, "I'm very healthy. I won't have Ethan Smith worried about me."
After leaving those words, William Richardson got into his car and set off for Chuzzle.
"You'll come back and beg him." Emily Taylor murmured softly to herself.
...
At this time, Ethan Smith was sitting at home, studying the memories in his mind.
This was the inheritance left by his father, a true treasure trove.
"Besides relying on qi and Pills, the other method is formation." Ethan Smith thought to himself.
Nowadays, the qi in this era is extremely scarce, especially in the city.
Ethan Smith could only use the formation to gather all the surrounding qi in one place.
In this way, his cultivation speed would be much faster.
But for Ethan Smith to set up a formation now, it was like climbing to the sky.
Ethan Smith took a deep breath and murmured, "I will stand at the top of the pyramid."
Throughout his life, no one had ever believed in Ethan Smith, nor had anyone encouraged him.
Now that Emily Taylor believed in him so much, Ethan Smith would never disappoint her.
At dusk.
Ethan Smith got up and left the Dragon Rising Community, heading all the way to the foot of a mountain.
There were mountains, water, and thin population here. Compared to the city, the qi here was much denser.
"This is the place." Ethan Smith sat down by a small stream.
Then, he closed his eyes slightly and began to absorb the surrounding qi.
Along with his breathing, the surrounding qi slowly gathered.
These qi revolved around Ethan Smith, forming a small whirlpool.
If anyone passed by, they could even feel a slight breeze.
On the other side.
William Richardson's car was slowly leaving River City.
"Hmph, I'd like to see what kind of waves this Ethan Smith can make." William Richardson said indignantly.
The person next to him forced a smile and said, "Mr. Richardson, it's true that Ethan Smith is nothing, but offending the Taylor family is not a good choice..."
William Richardson waved his hand and said, "I know when to stop. The Hill family knows about this now, and I believe it won't be long before Benjamin Hill comes to River City."
"Benjamin Hill is better than Ethan Smith in every aspect. I believe it won't be long before Ethan Smith knows when to give up!"
In William Richardson's opinion, Ethan Smith had no chance of comparing with Benjamin Hill.
As they were talking, William Richardson suddenly felt a sharp pain in his heart. Although it was brief, it made him cough involuntarily.
"I guess I have to smoke less in the future." William Richardson didn't think much about it, assuming it was because he had smoked too much recently.
Just as he put out the cigarette, the stabbing pain in his heart struck again!
This time, it was even stronger!
William Richardson covered his heart and frowned, "What... what's going on?"
Before he could react, the severe pain struck again!
It felt as if his heart was being pierced by thousands of arrows, both painful and itchy!
William Richardson's face showed a trace of pain. Clutching his heart, he said with difficulty, "No... this isn't good..."
This suddenly reminded him of Ethan Smith's words!
"Quick, go back to River City!" William Richardson shouted urgently.
