Chapter 522: Chapter 522: It’s All Because of You All Forcing Me
From then on, Dexter Blair appeared more and more often.
Not only did this involve matters of martial arts, but he also frequently made appearances in the business world.
In a short time, Dexter Blair had practically become a star among the younger generation.
“Mr. Blair, your wedding with Miss Taylor is imminent, but Ethan Smith claims he will come and interrupt it. Are you worried?” the host asked.
Dressed in an elegant suit, Dexter Blair gently smiled and said, “Of course not, Emily and I are in love, and no one can shake that.”
“As I always say, I will personally defeat Ethan Smith at the wedding as a gift for my wife.”
Watching these interview videos, Ethan Smith could not contain his anger.
Especially when he called Emily his wife, it made Ethan Smith wish he could tear his mouth apart!
Furthermore, Dexter Blair’s actions were becoming increasingly high-profile.
He successively challenged several established half-step Martial Marquises, almost always winning with an overwhelming manner!
After consecutively winning eight half-step Martial Marquis, Dexter Blair set his sights on a Martial Marquis!
This was a seasoned Martial Marquis named Ernesto Russell, who had now reached over a hundred years of age!
It was said that several decades ago, Ernesto Russell had already mastered the Military Marquis Realm, and after so many years had passed, nobody knew which layer he was at in the Military Marquis Realm.
The battle was held at the Capital City Martial Arts Association, but it was not made public, only that in the afternoon, Ernesto Russell was carried out on a stretcher, and Dexter Blair was completely unharmed!
Once this news was released, it immediately shocked countless people!
Dexter Blair had actually won against a real Martial Marquis?
Not only that, from his demeanor, it seemed he won quite easily?
Could it be… had Dexter Blair entered the Martial Marquis Realm?
“Mr. Smith.” Edward Green held up his cellphone and ran in front of Ethan Smith.
“It’s said that Dexter Blair has defeated an established Martial Marquis,” Edward Green said in a deep voice.
Ethan Smith glanced at the cellphone, and his face also inevitably showed a hint of gravity.
He deeply knew the gap between a half-step Martial Marquis and Martial Marquis. Even for him, winning would be difficult!
“Could it be… Dexter Blair really entered the Martial Marquis Realm,” Ethan Smith deeply inhaled.
Though transitioning from a half-step Marquis to a Marquis was not that simple, Dexter Blair was after all enjoying the world’s top resources!
No one knew if Dexter Blair would step into the Marquis Realm in one fell swoop!
“Mr. Smith, or… you shouldn’t go,” Edward Green said on the side.
“If Dexter Blair really entered the Marquis Realm, then… then wouldn’t you be going to your death?”
Ethan Smith glanced at Edward Green and coldly said, “Even if it is a dragon’s den or a tiger’s cave, I am going. No one, must touch Emily Taylor.”
Everything Ethan Smith had done was for Emily Taylor! How could he give up at this time!
“Marquis… Marquis so what, if you can enter the Marquis Realm, I, Ethan Smith, also have a chance!” Ethan Smith deeply inhaled.
Even though he said such words, Ethan Smith was somewhat uneasy in his heart.
Because time was really too short.
Capital City, Taylor family’s estate.
Seeing the time drawing nearer and nearer, Emily Taylor became more and more worried.
In recent times, she had almost been cut off from any contact and knew nothing about the outside world.
She didn’t know how far Ethan Smith had come, and even less so, the current strength of Dexter Blair.
“Miss Taylor, don’t worry too much,” the maid by her side sighed a little.
Emily Taylor looked at the maid and quietly said, “Mrs. Hall, is there any news from Ethan Smith recently?”
The nanny who was called Mrs. Hall bitterly chuckled, “We’ve had our phones taken away too. How could we have news about Mr. Smith…”
Hearing this, the worries deep within Emily Taylor’s heart intensified.
She was very clear about the kind of power Ethan Smith was up against.
Just then, the door was pushed open.
Then they saw Hugh Taylor slowly walking in.
Seeing Hugh Taylor, Emily Taylor quickly got up and said, “Dad!”
Hugh Taylor’s face grim, he walked in front of Emily Taylor.
“Emily, there are only a few days to go before your wedding with Dexter Blair. Are you ready?” Hugh Taylor asked coldly.
Emily Taylor bit her red lips, looked up at Hugh Taylor, and said, “I will not marry Dexter Blair.”
A flash of anger immediately crossed Hugh Taylor’s face!
He shouted loudly, “Now that things have come to this, are you still thinking about that Ethan Smith!”
“Don’t you know how much trouble this Ethan Smith has caused outside! What about this man is worth holding on to!”
“Trouble?” Emily Taylor seemed a bit puzzled.
What trouble could Ethan Smith cause?
Hugh Taylor coldly said, “It seems you don’t know your beloved well.”
“Fine, I will tell you what Ethan Smith has been up to outside!”
“He killed dozens of people from the Great Saint Sect, forced the Great Saint Sect to bow down, and slapped the face of the Taylor family!”
“Not only that, but even the Capital City Martial Arts Association has been threatened by him!”
Saying this, Hugh Taylor gritted his teeth and said, “That’s the Capital City Martial Arts Association! What is Ethan Smith trying to do! Is he trying to rebel!”
“Let’s put it this way, even if this Ethan Smith does come into the Taylor family, he will bring trouble!”
Hearing this, a little surprise crossed Emily Taylor’s stunning face.
Ethan Smith…actually forced the Great Saint Sect to bow down?
Shouldn’t the Great Saint Sect have a Martial Marquis holding it down!
Yet, in Emily Taylor’s impression, wasn’t Ethan Smith just an ordinary person? Even if his progress was godlike within this short period of time, he must at most be a Grandmaster, right?
Emily Taylor lifted her head, she looked at Hugh Taylor, a little deliberately, and said, “Dad, stop joking around. Ethan Smith is just a Grandmaster, how could he possible threaten the Great Saint Sect, let alone threaten the Capital City Martial Arts Association?”
Hugh Taylor narrowed his eyes and sneered, “Emily, are you trying to fish information from me?”
“Fine, I will tell you. Indeed, Ethan Smith has some talent. He has already stepped halfway into the Martial Marquis.”
Upon hearing this, Emily Taylor’s eyes lit up instantaneously!
“Dad, do you remember what you said back then? You said that as long as a year later, Ethan Smith could…”
“That’s enough!”
Before Emily Taylor could finish her words, she was abruptly interrupted by Hugh Taylor.
He snorted coldly, “So what if he has talent? There is not a shred of awe in him!”
“If the Taylor family were to tolerate him, we would probably have to make the world our enemy! So put that idea out of your mind!”
Emily Taylor’s face immediately grew cold.
She stared intently at Hugh Taylor, saying, “Isn’t it you who forced Ethan Smith to act like this?”
“At first you said he was unworthy, called him a bottom-dwelling worm.”
“Now, you call him a disaster. Without your coercion, would he have become like this?”
“Do you actually want Ethan Smith to smile in the face of your oppression, would that satisfy you?”
