Hammer frowned and said, “Family Head, you’d better be cautious. After all, we just killed that Tusk…”
At these words, Barclay Marshall snorted coldly and said, “That Tusk was just a low-level nobody. Dead is dead. Ethan Smith killed my son, and I haven’t even settled accounts with him yet!”
*If it weren’t for fearing Ethan Smith’s power, Barclay Marshall would have already torn him apart, piece by piece.*
Luckily, Barclay Marshall had plenty of descendants, with no less than eighteen sons alone.
Among his sons, the one killed by Ethan Smith ranked merely second overall.
“Family Head, what should we do now?” Hammer asked.
Barclay Marshall rose slowly. He didn’t wish to stir up trouble, and his plan, naturally, was to avoid confrontation.
“Go and tell him that all his expenses for today will be covered by the Marshall family,” Barclay said with a faint smile.
Hammer quickly nodded at his words and said, “Alright, I understand.”
He then turned around and walked out the door.
Once outside, Hammer couldn’t help but curse under his breath, “Damn it, this Old Thing is really gutless! His son gets murdered, and not only does he not take revenge, he actually wants to make peace!”
Though grumbling, he still followed Barclay Marshall’s instructions and returned to the gambling den.
At that moment, Ethan Smith was quietly sitting at a gaming table, observing.
Ethan wasn’t familiar with gambling in the Holy Region. The only gambling he knew of was stone gambling.
Here, in addition to using magic coins, gamblers would also wager their personal foundations, such as cultivation skills and treasures.
Some, driven to desperation, even staked all the Dharma Treasures they carried.
Watching these gamblers spiral into madness, Ethan Smith couldn’t help but snort coldly.
He casually grabbed a man, tossing him to the side, then propped his feet on the table.
Seeing this, the people at the table frowned and stared at Ethan.
“What’s your problem?” The man whom Ethan threw aside grew furious.
Ethan stretched lazily and said, “I’m tired. Just resting for a bit.”
“Resting? Are you out of your damn mind? Get lost now!” The people at the table yelled angrily.
At that moment, Hammer hurried over.
Standing beside Ethan, he bowed and said, “Greetings, Mr. Smith.”
Ethan glanced at him and said, “Who are you?”
“I’m the manager here. My name is Hammer,” Hammer replied politely.
“Our Family Head specifically instructed that all your expenses today would be covered by us,” Hammer continued.
Ethan raised an eyebrow and couldn’t help but sneer, “Your Family Head sounds quite filial.”
A trace of awkwardness flashed across Hammer’s face, leaving him momentarily speechless.
“What if I lose, then?” Ethan asked again.
Hammer replied deferentially, “Mr. Smith, your winnings are yours; your losses will be covered by us.”
At his words, Ethan couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
He slammed his palm onto the table and then said coldly, “Since your Marshall family is so dutiful, let your Family Head come play a few rounds with me.”
Hammer showed a hint of unease, then smiled meekly and said, “Mr. Smith, our Family Head is currently busy. Otherwise, he would definitely come to meet you personally…”
“Oh? And so?” Ethan narrowed his eyes, exuding an icy aura.
Hammer couldn’t help but shiver; with some fear, he said, “Mr. Smith, please… don’t make things hard on me. I’m just a worker in this place…”
“Fine. I won’t make things hard for you.” Ethan said coldly, “Go back and tell Barclay Marshall that I, Ethan Smith, am waiting for him here. If he comes, I’ll only kill him. If he doesn’t, I’ll slaughter his entire family.”
Hammer sighed internally.
*Sure enough, Ethan Smith wasn’t here to gamble; he came looking for trouble.*
“Hurry up! Why are you still standing there?” Ethan glared at him.
Hammer didn’t dare speak further and promptly turned to leave.
“Who’s arrogant enough to spout such nonsense in my Marshall family’s territory?”
A voice suddenly rang out.
Looking up, they saw a refined young man striding forth.
This man’s features resembled those of the deceased Mr. Marshall, but his eyes carried a greater ferocity compared to the latter.
“Who’s bold enough to utter wild claims here?” The young man quickly arrived at Ethan’s side. freewebnøvel.com
Seeing the youth, Hammer hurriedly bowed and said, “Young Master…”
The youth, addressed as Young Master, ignored Hammer and sized up Ethan with a cold glare, saying, “You must be tired of living.”
Ethan raised an eyebrow and said with a casual smirk, “And who are you?”
“I am Alger Marshall, the Marshall family’s Young Master!” The youth declared loudly.
“Alger Marshall? The most outstanding Young Master of the Marshall family?”
“Greetings, Mr. Marshall!” Someone stood up and saluted.
Alger Marshall sneered at Ethan and said, “Which mangy mutt are you, barking up a storm here?”
Hammer hurriedly interjected, “Mr. Marshall, this is Ethan Smith, Mr. Smith…”
“What? He’s Ethan Smith?”
“No wonder he’s acting so audaciously, daring to challenge the Marshall family!”
“The Marshall family is nothing; he doesn’t even put the Cloud Sect in his eyes!”
The surrounding crowd began whispering among themselves, their eyes suddenly filled with anxious fear.
