Ellis Mitchell’s attitude was extremely humble, no longer displaying his previous arrogance.
He sat opposite Ethan Smith, presenting the Pill with both hands.
“I hope that our grievances can be forgotten with a smile, and I also hope that Mr. Smith can give me some guidance.” Ellis Mitchell politely said.
Ethan Smith glanced at the Pill and shook his head: “Mr. Mitchell, you don’t have to be so polite. Just take this Pill back. As for guidance, we can simply exchange ideas.”
Hearing this, Ellis Mitchell quickly stood up, somewhat panicked, and said,
“Mr. Smith, please accept this Pill! Otherwise, I won’t feel at ease!”
Ethan Smith looked at the Pill for a moment, then nodded, “Alright then, I can only obey with respect.”
This Pill did look quite tempting. Although it couldn’t compare to Hundred-year medicinal materials, it would certainly help with improving one’s strength.
After accepting the Pill, the two began chatting casually.
Ellis Mitchell told his past experiences and how he went from having nothing to where he is today.
This resonated with Ethan Smith because Ellis Mitchell’s tough past was quite similar to his own.
“Ah, Mr. Smith, your future is limitless, while I’m already getting old without any hope.” Ellis Mitchell sighed.
Hearing this, Ethan Smith smiled and comforted him, “Mr. Mitchell, you don’t need to belittle yourself like that. Those who can reach your level are very few.”
Ellis Mitchell bitterly smiled, “Even though that’s true, I’ve been stuck at the level of Inner Strength Master for more than ten years, unable to jump over the next level.”
Upon hearing this, Ethan Smith thought for a moment.
He walked up to Ellis Mitchell and said, “You might as well try to use Inner Strength to break through your major acupoints. It might have a certain effect.”
The essence of martial cultivation and spiritual cultivation is the same. The only difference is that one relies on Inner Strength and the other on Qi.
Therefore, Ethan Smith’s experience could also be applied to a martial cultivator’s body.
Hearing this, Ellis Mitchell quickly closed his eyes and tried to break through various acupoints according to Ethan Smith’s instructions.
A few minutes later, Ellis Mitchell opened his eyes in surprise, excitedly saying, “It really works! Mr. Smith, you truly are a genius! I’ve never heard of such methods! ”
“Maybe you haven’t been exposed to them.” Ethan Smith said with a smile.
Ellis Mitchell was extremely excited. He had been stuck at this level for many years without any progress. After learning Ethan Smith’s methods, he was suddenly filled with hope.
“Mr. Smith, I won’t stay any longer. I want to try to break through to the level of Inner Strength Greatmaster. I will never forget your great kindness and grace! ” Ellis Mitchell stood up and said respectfully.
“Mr. Mitchell, you’re being too polite.” Ethan Smith nodded slightly.
After sending Ellis Mitchell away, Edward Green couldn’t help but say, “This Ellis Mitchell is just a slippery villain! You helping him is like throwing a steamed bun to a dog!”
Ethan Smith just smiled and didn’t explain.
Since he had received something from someone else, he naturally couldn’t take it for nothing.
Afterward, Ethan Smith took out the Pill that Ellis Mitchell had given him.
He rubbed it in his hand for a moment and said, “This Pill might bring me a
significant profit.”
With that thought, Ethan Smith directly swallowed the Pill into his mouth.
As the Pill entered his stomach, Ethan Smith slowly closed his eyes.
Edward Green stood to the side, not saying a word, for fear of disturbing Ethan Smith.
A few minutes later, Ethan Smith’s face suddenly changed, and he covered his stomach, yelling in pain!
“It hurts… my stomach hurts so much, as if the medicine exploded inside…” Cold sweat dripped down Ethan’s forehead, and he let out a roar like a pig being slaughtered!
Edward Green panicked, anxiously saying, “Mr. Smith, are… are you alright? I…
I’ll take you to the hospital right away!”
As soon as his words fell, the room’s door was suddenly kicked open!
Next, Ellis Mitchell was seen standing smugly at the doorway.
“Hahaha, Ethan Smith, you finally fell into my hands! ” Ellis Mitchell couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
“You did this!” Edward Green glared at him and clenched his fists, rushing towards Ellis Mitchell!
However, Ellis Mitchell was, after all, at the peak of the Master Realm, and his strength was far beyond what Edward Green could compare to.
With a swing of Ellis Mitchell’s hand, Edward Green was immediately sent flying!
“Hmph, a mere ant dares to act arrogant in front of me?” Ellis Mitchell said indifferently.
Edward Green couldn’t help but look angry, gritting his teeth and saying, “Mr. Smith kindly helped you break through, but you actually bit the hand that fed you! Are you even human?”
Ellis Mitchell didn’t care and instead said proudly, “This is called ‘using every possible means in war.’ Ethan Smith, you are still too young.” Ethan Smith, holding his stomach, struggled to say, “What… did you use on
Ellis Mitchell laughed loudly, “This is a poison pill I bought from a high-ranking person in the Southwest during my earlier travels.”
“As long as you take this pill, you will become weak and your Inner Strength will dissipate!”
“Ethan Smith, you are now no different from ordinary people!”
Ethan Smith gritted his teeth and said, “Ellis Mitchell, you really are a despicable person!”
Ellis Mitchell sneered, “You deserve it! As a junior, you dared to steal my thunder. You have only yourself to blame!”
Ethan Smith held his stomach and squinted, “You want to kill me just because of this?”
“There are countless reasons to kill you. Hating the way you look also counts, right?” Ellis Mitchell snorted.
Ethan Smith couldn’t help but feel furious. In the eyes of these people, were human lives worth nothing?
Looking at Ethan Smith groaning miserably on the ground, Mitchell muttered to himself, “That seller didn’t mention that this pill would cause stomach pain.
There are unexpected side effects.”
“Ah? It shouldn’t cause stomach pain?” Ethan Smith’s eyes widened.
“But… don’t poisonous pills usually cause stomach pain?” Ethan Smith mumbled.
Hearing that, Ellis Mitchell impatiently said, “How the fuck would I know?
Maybe I just got it wrong. In any case, you are as good as dead today!”
Ethan Smith suddenly realized. He removed his hand from his stomach and said with a smile, “You didn’t remember it incorrectly, I just guessed it wrong.” “What do you mean?” Ellis Mitchell was somewhat puzzled.
“Nothing.” Ethan Smith didn’t explain anything but instead got up from the ground.
He dusted off his clothes and grinned, “Ellis Mitchell, an ungrateful person like you really disgusts me. I should have just slapped you to death back then.”
Ellis Mitchell didn’t care and just snorted, “So what? You are now powerless. What’s the point of saying all this?”
“Yeah.” Ethan Smith sighed.
“I’m already useless now. Just get it over with and kill me.”
Ellis Mitchell snorted coldly, “I don’t need you to remind me!”
As his words fell, Ellis Mitchell swooshed in front of Ethan Smith!
Ethan Smith didn’t dodge or evade but let Mitchell’s fist land on his body.
With a “clang” sound, Ellis Mitchell felt as if his fist had hit a piece of steel, and his wrist was in immense pain!
“How is that possible!” Ellis Mitchell’s face suddenly changed dramatically.
“You… you’re not poisoned at all?” Ellis Mitchell couldn’t help but take two steps back.
Ethan Smith grinned and said, “I was poisoned, but not completely..”
