Mrs. and Mr. Smith -
Chapter 1904
Chapter 1904: Chapter 1904: Interested in the Body?_1 Chapter 1904: Chapter 1904: Interested in the Body?_1 Ethan Smith glanced around and found that all the plants here were rare and exotic fruits.
As such, Ethan Smith nodded, “Indeed, this is an excellent place, but I wonder if it is safe.”
“Safe? You actually question the safety of Frostmoon Palace?” The Williams Saintess couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle lightly.
Ethan Smith also felt that he was being preposterous here, considering this was the Williams family's place, and the Frostmoon Palace had been passed down from their ancestors. Who could cause trouble here?
“I was being ridiculous.” Ethan Smith smiled bitterly.
The Williams Saintess shook her head, indicating she understood.
At this moment, Ethan Smith looked up at the massive Osmanthus tree.
“Saintess Williams, may I be so bold as to ask, has anyone ever tried to cut down this tree in the past?” Ethan Smith tentatively asked.
Hearing this, the Williams Saintess' expression became extremely complicated.
With a mix of surprise and wariness, she looked at Ethan Smith and said, “How do you know about this?”
Ethan Smith noticed the Saintess' wariness and quickly explained, “Don't misunderstand, Saintess Williams. I have only heard some legends before, which are very similar to the story of Frostmoon Palace.”
“Legend? What legend?” The Williams Saintess asked.
Ethan Smith thought for a moment and said, “It's from another world at the other end of the starry sky. If I have the chance in the future, I'll take you to see it.”
The Williams Saintess did not continue to ask further questions, but it was clear that she still had some doubts in her heart.
On the second day, Ethan Smith returned to the Great Hall of the temple.
The stone table was already filled with delicious food, and Michael Wilson and the others had arrived long ago.
Ethan Smith and Frederick Cohen took their seats without a word and began to eat immediately.
Especially Frederick Cohen, his tall and sturdy body coupled with his current ravenous eating manner made him look like a wild beast that had been starved for days.
“Hehe, the low-level cultivators, even eat like beasts,” Michael Wilson mocked.
With a smack on the table, Frederick Cohen shouted, “What did you say! Are you asking for death?”
Michael Wilson raised an eyebrow, “Why, someone took it personally?”
“Do you believe I could kill you?” Frederick Cohen glared.
Ethan Smith tugged at Frederick Cohen, shaking his head, “Let it go, don't stoop to his level.”
Frederick Cohen huffed, “I can endure him badmouthing me, but he even called you a beast! I can't stand that!”
Ethan Smith: “…”
After three rounds of wine and various dishes,
The Williams Saintess suddenly looked at Nathan Taylor and smiled, “Young Master Taylor, there is something I want to discuss with you. I wonder if it would be convenient for you.”
Nathan Taylor nodded, signaling the Williams Saintess to continue.
The Williams Saintess glanced at Ethan Smith and said with a smile, “Ethan Smith wants to enter the Taylor family, what do you think, Young Master Taylor?”
Ethan Smith's brows furrowed slightly, but he didn't say anything.
Nathan Taylor sneered with a glance at Ethan Smith, “Him? Entering the Taylor family? Saintess Williams, are you joking? Let me tell you, as long as I am in the Taylor family, he won't take half a step inside the Taylor family's gates!”
The Williams Saintess, seemingly unsurprised, immediately laughed, “I was only kidding, Young Master Taylor. Don't get angry.”
Ethan Smith's brow furrowed even more, unable to figure out the purpose of the Williams Saintess' actions.
After the meal, Nathan Taylor and Michael Wilson prepared to leave Frostmoon Palace.
“Ethan Smith, we should go too,” Frederick Cohen said.
Ethan Smith still had something he needed the Williams Saintess' help with, so he shook his head, “I may have to stay here for a few more days. If you have nothing else to do, stay with me in Frostmoon Palace.”
Frederick Cohen frowned, “What are you staying here for?”
Ethan Smith glanced around, pulled Frederick Cohen aside, and whispered, “I need the Williams Saintess' help to get me into the Taylor family.”
“Oh, you're going to the Taylor family? Then I won't accompany you,” Frederick Cohen waved his hand.
Ethan Smith quickly grabbed Frederick Cohen, asking, “Where are you going then?”
Frederick Cohen laughed, “The world is so vast, where can't I go? In fact, I quite want to explore the Central Province.”
Knowing it would be difficult to bring Frederick Cohen into the Taylor family, Ethan Smith didn't try to stop him.
“I won't be in the Taylor family for long. We'll meet up here after some time,” Ethan Smith thought for a moment and said to Frederick Cohen.
Frederick Cohen agreed, “Alright, no problem!”
Then, without lingering, Frederick Cohen thanked the Williams Saintess and left Frostmoon Palace.
With his departure, only Ethan Smith and the Williams Saintess remained in Frostmoon Palace.
After they had all left, Ethan Smith went to the Williams Saintess' room.
The Williams Saintess' room had an ancient charm with a scholarly atmosphere.
At this moment, the Williams Saintess was sitting at a mahogany-colored table, brewing tea.
Trails of delicate fragrance wafted in the air, making the Williams Saintess seem even more like a celestial being.
Ethan Smith looked closely and saw that the tea being brewed was Enlightenment Tea.
“Worthy of being one of the Great Families.” Ethan Smith sighed.
The Williams Saintess poured a cup of tea for Ethan Smith and chuckled, “It seems that Mr. Smith has tasted Enlightenment Tea before.”
Ethan Smith hummed, “I suppose I have.”
Back in the day, Enlightenment Tea was an extremely rare and precious item, with unimaginable benefits for one's cultivation.
However, at his current level of cultivation, the effects of Enlightenment Tea had become negligible.
After drinking a cup of tea, Ethan Smith got straight to the point and said, “Saintess Williams, I must trouble you to show me the way. Where can I find a secret technique to conceal my aura?”
The Williams Saintess laughed, “It depends on Mr. Smith's requirements.”
“I don't have any special requirements. As long as I'm not seen through, that's enough,” Ethan Smith smiled bitterly.
At this moment, the Williams Saintess looked up at Ethan Smith, blinking and saying, “You can go find the man with the mustache. Such secret techniques shouldn't be anything special to him.”
Ethan Smith tensed up, quickly waved his hands and said, “I don't know him well, and besides, I can't find him.”
The Williams Saintess didn't say anything, just staring at Ethan Smith intently.
After a while, Saintess Williams seemed to be convinced that Ethan Smith wasn't lying and laughed, “I can help you make inquiries.”
“Really? Thank you so much, Saintess Williams!” Ethan Smith hurriedly thanked her.
“Don't thank me yet,” Saintess Williams chuckled. “If I help you, how would you thank me?”
Ethan Smith scratched his head, thought for a long time, but couldn't come up with an answer.
She was, after all, the Saintess of the Williams family, lacking nothing. What could Ethan Smith have that would catch the eye of such a saintess?
“I don't know.” After struggling for a while, Ethan Smith finally gave a bitter smile.
Saintess Williams didn't show any emotion. She poured Ethan Smith another cup of tea and quietly asked, “What is Mr. Smith's advantage?”
“Advantage?” Ethan Smith scratched his head, looking down at his sturdy body, and immediately replied, “My advantage… I'm afraid it's my steel-like, masculine physique.”
At this point, Ethan Smith's face changed slightly. He looked at the Williams Saintess and exclaimed, “You're not interested in my body, are you?”
