Mrs. and Mr. Smith -
Chapter 1304
Chapter 1304: Chapter 1304: Searching for the Life Aura_1 Chapter 1304: Chapter 1304: Searching for the Life Aura_1 Ethan Smith, seeing the situation, had no choice but to follow the two men to the Imperial Palace.
Soon they arrived at the palace.
It had to be said that the palace of Gowinston City was truly magnificent, utterly grand.
Though Ethan had seen countless top-tier manors, he was still awestruck by the scene before him.
Within the entire palace, mist lingered, and white cranes flew by from time to time; it seemed as if they had stepped into paradise.
“What's so great about this place? It's far inferior to our Freeman Family!” Clay Freeman saw Ethan's astonishment and immediately boasted.
“Exactly, the hilltop I just purchased is way better than this place!” chimed in Alfred Freeman.
Listening to their words, the City Lord couldn't help but curse inwardly.
“Nothing but a couple of prodigals, if it weren't for your grandfather, you would have been slaughtered a thousand times over!” The City Lord restrained his anger, cursing crazily in his heart.
Though his thoughts were like this, he still maintained a pleasant and polite demeanor on his face.
They brought Ethan Smith to the Great Hall, where a banquet had already been prepared.
The civil and military officials of Gowinston City were all present as escorts.
This kind of reception was usually reserved for top-level dignitaries.
But now they had to entertain two good-for-nothing prodigals.
This made the City Lord extremely unhappy.
“What's the use of bringing all these old men?” Clay grumbled, frowning unhappily.
“That's right! Each one of them is more unsightly than the next! Get them out of here!” Alfred said impatiently, waving his hand.
The City Lord, who was already annoyed, wanted nothing more than to flip the table when he heard the Freeman brothers' words.
He restrained his anger and barked, “You all can leave first.”
After chasing all the officials out of the hall, Clay ordered the City Lord to bring a group of beautiful women dressed in gauzy garments to dance and drink with them, having a great time.
Watching the insufferable Freeman brothers, the City Lord gritted his teeth in anger.
His once-solemn palace hall had been made to resemble a brothel by these two.
Ethan Smith couldn't help but be taken aback; he couldn't imagine that the life of a cultivator's descendant would end up like this.
“Come, Mr. Smith, let's drink! Let's get drunk tonight!” Clay said, holding up his wine cup.
Ethan, of course, did not refuse and accompanied the Freeman brothers in getting drunk.
By nighttime, the three of them were lying on the table, their positions sprawled and disordered, fast asleep.
The City Lord's face was ashen as he coldly stared at the three men.
“City Lord, what kind of behavior is this from these three? Absolutely disgraceful!” someone couldn't help but grumble.
The City Lord gave him an icy look, saying, “Do you think I'm enjoying this? These two have deep connections; even the Cloud Sect doesn't want to offend them, let alone us.”
Then, the City Lord waved and ordered, “Find a room and throw the three of them in.”
“Yes.”
The three were thrown into a rather luxurious room, staying there for the time being.
At noon the next day, the three gradually came to their senses, feeling hungover.
Ethan, having experienced a night of drinking, felt a bit of a headache.
Without spiritual power, his condition was not too different from that of an ordinary person after getting drunk.
The Freeman brothers weren't in much better shape; Clay rubbed his forehead, cursing, “Damn it, drank too much again. No more drinking.”
“Exactly, drinking is bad for you,” Alfred Freeman agreed, nodding repeatedly.
Thereafter, the two brothers looked at Ethan and asked, “How are you feeling, brother Ethan?”
Ethan Smith forced a smile, saying, “I'm fine, I can handle it.”
Clay nodded, then smilingly said, “Ethan, you have some real skills. Even Philbert Duncan was no match for you.”
“That's not necessarily true, he was already injured. If he was at his peak, it's hard to say who would win or lose,” Ethan said, somewhat solemnly.
As for the massive disk vision that Philbert had displayed, Ethan was quite wary of it.
“Do you two know where I can find Life Aura?” Ethan asked the Freeman brothers.
“Life Aura?” The two looked at each other, then frowned and said, “I think my grandfather has a small stash, but not much. We can ask him.”
Ethan waved his hands; Life Aura was incredibly valuable, and it was absolutely impossible for someone like Randall Freeman to simply give it away.
“There's an auction happening in Gowinston City; you can try your luck there. We believe you might find some,” Clay suggested.
Ethan nodded slightly, having also considered this option.
Many Dharma Treasures were born at auctions.
As a well-connected city, Gowinston City's auctions boasted an endless stream of treasures.
Many experts from other cities would come here to seek treasure.
“We'll go tonight, Alfred and I were planning to go for fun anyway,” said Clay.
Ethan nodded, “All right, it's settled then.”
For the whole day, the trio roamed the entire palace.
The originally solemn palace turned into something akin to an amusement park due to the arrival of the two brothers.
The City Lord, watching it all, could only seethe with suppressed anger.
At night, Clay informed the City Lord and left the palace with Ethan.
Gazing at the backs of the departing trio, the City Lord's face grew colder.
“Go, have someone keep an eye on those three. Once Ethan and the Freeman brothers separate, inform me immediately,” the City Lord said coldly.
Though he dared not offend Clay and Alfred, he had no qualms about dealing with Ethan, who had no background.
Randall Freeman would go mad for his grandson, but he wouldn't do the same for an outsider.
Moreover, the City Lord had just hosted Ethan; if word reached the Cloud Sect, he might be punished.
It was not too late to make amends.
