Chapter 295: Through the Wormhole
Ethan came up on the alert at once and put the nostalgia away.He stood and walked a few steps toward the platform. Not many in the hall had seen what he'd done to the spirit probe. The rest, taking him for another rube out of some backwater planet from the cut of his clothes, didn't bother with him at all.That was the mistake.Someone shoulder-checked him hard as he passed. "Who the hell do you think you are, cutting in line? Get to the back of the queue, peasant. This isn't your level—"The man never finished. Ethan's gaze settled on him, cold and flat, and his fist was already moving.He remembered what Bi Han had told him. Don't sell yourself short forever. Strike when it's time, or everyone walks all over you.So he struck.The challenger blinked, thrown off balance. He'd sized Ethan up the way everyone did—barely six feet, narrow-shouldered, easy work. In the split second before the punch landed, he was already watching it in his head: this farmer's arm shattered, the boy on hi
Chapter 294: The Man Behind the Curtain
Ethan grunted and slid a prepared list across the desk.It was mostly instruments. Alchemical glassware, climate boxes, refined reagents—the sort of unglamorous stock his farms burned through by the crate every month. Yuliu Tuluo took it, skimmed it, and didn't bother hiding his relief. He already knew what Ethan usually bought, so nothing on the list surprised him."All of this together... two Nine-Turn Golden Soul Pills, more or less." He passed the list to a clerk and started rubbing his hands together. "Mr. Su, it's just—you haven't consigned anything to us in a while, and I was hoping maybe we could—""Price it out," Ethan cut in. "I'll settle with Soul-Nourishing Pills."Yuliu's mouth stayed open. He shut it without another word. He remembered. Whatever he'd done last time to sour the relationship, he'd remembered it, and there was nothing he could say now. He had a voice in the Guild—more than he'd ever had, thanks to Ethan's business—but at the end of the day he was still a br
Chapter 293: Blindsided
"If you're going to True God Academy, you leave now." Bi Han had lowered his voice, the way an old friend does when he's giving away more than politeness requires. "Even by wormhole, it's nearly two months out. Be late and you miss the registration. My recommendation skips you past that — straight into the trials — but I'd still get there early. Know who you're fighting."He thought for a moment."This year, every race has produced geniuses. The special ones most of all. I hear the Starry Merman Clan has a talent they've been waiting ten thousand years to see. And you've never been to the Central Star Domain. Get there early. The air isn't the same."He wasn't laying it on. He'd taken to Ethan, genuinely. A favor given deserved a favor returned, and he wanted Ethan to walk in prepared."Don't spend your first week resting," he added. "Spend it watching. Find out who the loud names are, and which ones are quiet. The quiet ones are the ones who'll break you. And when the trial lets you
Chapter 292: The Shameless Mechanical Clan
"Wait." Ethan caught Suotu before the man could charge off.If Suotu went, he'd walk straight into the trap. The Giants and the Insects would be at war years early. Suotu alone couldn't win. And humans stood together. Once the fighting started, it wouldn't be Giants versus Insects. It would be every human against every insect. The other allied races would join. It would become a race war, and the ones who profited would be the ones sitting back and watching."Don't be stupid. It may not be the Insects at all. Hold on."Ethan pulled out the vial he'd saved.There was still one worm left in the last mouthful of blood. Thumb-sized, pure black, ugly. On Earth that would be the mother gu. The ones he'd already burned had been the children.He sprinkled cinnabar and sulfur into the vial, dropped in a few spirit herbs, and waited. Then he reached in and drew the worm out.It had grown. It was fist-sized now. Its shell had a strange, metallic sheen. Its two pincers were sharp and hungry. If s
Chapter 291: The Insect Clan's Hand
"What is—" Bi Han's face changed in an instant.Beside him, Suotu's expression turned to something dark and frightening.Ethan stood where he was, his breathing steady.Liniwei kept coughing up black blood. Each mouthful came with its own load of worms, and each load died the moment Ethan doused it. Finally, she heaved out one last long stream, swayed, and went still, tipping sideways.Ethan moved faster than he looked. The instant she began to retch, he'd brought out a wide-mouthed vial and caught the last of it.He exhaled."Alright. She'll be fine now. Take care of her. When she wakes up, she's going to be desperate for water. Don't give her water. Give her wine. The strongest stuff you've got."He capped the vial and pocketed it, then clapped his hands together once."Thank you, Brother Longchen." Bi Han's voice was thick with relief. "You've saved our clan again. The Giant Clan's friendship is yours, forever."If Liniwei had died, the Giants would have torn themselves apart. Her
Chapter 290: Poisoned
"Sure. Let's find somewhere to sit." Ethan could see it was real. He'd just done the Giants a favor. They weren't going to betray him now, of all times.Chiyou gave him one look, shrugged, and headed back to Mars with Gou Dan.Ethan didn't take Bi Han to Earth. The man was too large; stepping onto the surface would start a panic before he said two words. Instead he picked an empty planet, nowhere near anyone, and stood facing the giant.Bi Han looked down at him for a long moment, then began to shrink. He settled at five meters tall, still a mountain, but manageable. He scratched his head and looked embarrassed."This is as small as I get. Our bloodline works the other way from yours. The stronger we grow, the bigger we get. Late in life, shrinking back gets hard." He gestured at himself. "We're also bigger than the Bimeng. Truth is, the Bimeng are our own descendants — us, married into other clans. They split off and became their own people. But we're close. Still."He sobered."I ca
