Chapter 2284 -2283: Sinister Petty Person

“Don’t rush, wait for Master Heiyu to finish refining the artifact first.”

…

Several people exchanged glances.

Suddenly, Ethan Smith opened his eyes and looked toward Heiyu’s side.

At this moment, Heiyu’s face was full of worry. The embryonic form of the magical artifact before him seemed stuck, encountering the same problem as Suo Lin did before.

However, at that time, Suo Lin had Ethan Smith’s vast spiritual energy supporting him, and Suo Lin’s craftsmanship and his own strength were far superior to that of Heiyu.

Ethan’s divine sense stirred, summoning a surge of magma with the highest temperature, which erupted fiercely.

In mid-air, it transformed into a magma column the size of an arm, then poured directly into the refining furnace.

Heiyu’s expression changed, but noticing the magma was aiding him, he calmed himself and continued crafting the magical artifact.

“If anything goes wrong with my magical artifact, I’ll hold you accountable!”

The Grade Six Guard seemed to sense the disturbance caused by Ethan Smith and assumed he was up to something, his face instantly dark and menacing.

“Stop barking.”

Ethan Smith didn’t even glance at the man and sat cross-legged again. He only respected individuals like Master Solin, who dedicated themselves to refining.

Back then, Solin had been willing to sacrifice his life to complete the divine artifact, which deeply impressed Ethan Smith.

Not long after, with Ethan’s assistance, the magical artifact was quickly completed under Heiyu’s craftsmanship.

It was a silver long spear, radiating immense Holy Power at its tip.

“Amazing! It turned out to be a peak Saint Artifact. Truly worthy of Master Heiyu!”

The people around Heiyu displayed a hint of ecstatic joy. They had anticipated it would merely be an ordinary Saint Artifact and hadn’t expected Heiyu to refine a peak Saint Artifact, a level of achievement that guaranteed him recognition within Purgatory.

“My friend Wang Qing, you provided abundant materials for this spear, and I have charged you quite a high fee. Refining a peak Saint Artifact is nothing to brag about… but this should’ve been thanks to that friend’s help. Otherwise, the quality of the spear might not have reached this stage!”

Heiyu walked toward Ethan Smith and bowed deeply to him.

For refining masters, crafting the ultimate magical artifacts was their greatest honor.

Whoosh!

A flash of cold light abruptly pierced through the air, suddenly impaling Heiyu’s chest.

“You?”

Heiyu staggered backward, clutching his chest, disbelief etched across his face.

“Big brother, why did you kill Master Heiyu?”

The three others stared in shock, unable to believe their own eyes.

“That old bastard charged me so much for refining the artifact that it nearly bankrupted me. If we don’t take back that money, how are we brothers supposed to continue cultivating?”

Wang Qing’s face twisted with malice.

“Besides, we’re at the heart of Fire Scale Continent, where no one ever comes. Killing him won’t be discovered. Or, we could simply eliminate this man’s divine sense and claim he killed Master Heiyu!”

Wang Qing let out a cold laugh, pointing at Ethan Smith. freeweɓnovel.cѳm

Ethan’s face turned cold. His chaotic power had protected Master Heiyu’s heart veins—thankfully, the strike hadn’t fully pierced Heiyu’s heart.

“Brother, let me clarify, this artifact was originally meant to reach the tribulation-crossing grade. Your interference with the master caused this Treasure to fall to merely Saint Artifact level.”

Wang Qing’s eyes glimmered with murderous intent as he spoke, slowly making his way toward Ethan Smith.

“Captain, this man is likely Ethan Smith—the one who obtained the divine artifact crafted by Master Solin.”

A person whispered uneasily into Wang Qing’s ear.

Wang Qing’s expression shifted. He had heard of Ethan Smith’s terrifying reputation—someone capable of killing Luna, the Master of Azure Sky Palace, even while being hunted by both Azure Sky Palace and the Xuan Yin Sect. This was no ordinary individual.

“Big brother, I heard he was severely injured during the Seventh Layer Secret Realm eruption in Purgatory and is now nearly depleted of spiritual energy.”

Another person said grimly.

“Hmm, if we let him leave, he might start spreading rumors. We’d be unwelcome in this Galaxy.”

Killing a refining master in such an untrustworthy act, even in this chaotic Star System, was still considered disgraceful.

“Rumors are just rumors. I want to see how a True Saint Fourth Grade cultivator could possibly kill me.”

Wang Qing’s face hardened. His spear trembled violently, resembling a silver dragon emerging from its lair. Its terrifying aura seemed ready to pierce through space itself.

Ding!

Ethan Smith reached out with his left hand, forcefully grabbing the tip of the spear. At the moment when his palm collided with the spear’s edge, sparks exploded.

The silver spear halted abruptly, as if it had been choked like a helpless chicken.

Ethan’s arm moved, sending Wang Qing flying, and the silver spear landed in Ethan’s hand.

With a flick of Ethan’s finger against the spear’s shaft, the weapon transformed into a streak of silver light that pierced Wang Qing’s heart.

His corpse hung from the spear’s shaft, the front half embedded in the ground.

It lay just before Heiyu, seemingly repenting before him.

The remaining three attempted to flee, but Ethan didn’t even bother looking at them. He struck out with his palm, obliterating them into piles of flesh.

“Master Heiyu, are you alright?”

Ethan Smith grabbed Heiyu by the arm and helped him rise.

“I’m fine. Thank you, my friend, for stepping in. I did not expect them to attack me so suddenly—it was truly ridiculous.”

Heiyu’s face was pale. Though he wasn’t mortally wounded, recovery would take some time.

“As long as you’re alright. It’s a blessing that you didn’t die at the hands of such lowly people.”

Ethan nodded.

“I’m usually on the Cloud Continent. If you ever need my assistance, I’ll do my best to help!”

Heiyu cupped his hands toward Ethan.

“Master Heiyu, take this silver spear.”

Ethan pointed at the weapon as he spoke.

“This spear belongs to you.”

Heiyu coughed out a lump of bloody phlegm.

His figure swayed, seemingly still shaken from the recent events.

Seeing Heiyu refuse the spear, Ethan no longer insisted.

There were plenty of refining masters and cultivators on the outskirts, so the master shouldn’t encounter further danger.

Ethan arrived at the volcano’s center, stepping onto the magma itself.

The gauntlet on his left hand, Solin, began to vibrate gently. At the heart of this fire-rich area, the gauntlet seemed to grow increasingly excited.

A torrent of fiery energy surged into Ethan’s body, making him the vortex’s core.

Under the Qilin Core’s control, the violent fire energy nearly became tangible.

“Traceless Heart Lection!”

A powerful devouring force erupted from Ethan, turning him into a black hole that ceaselessly absorbed the frenzied fire energy.

He channeled half of his spiritual energy into the Xumi Space, where a few people joined him in cultivation.

For half a month, Ethan replenished his chaotic qi fully.

“Anywhere else and it would’ve taken three to four months just to replenish my chaotic qi.”

Ethan smiled bitterly and shook his head.

The cultivation this time had clearly been slower. The world’s energy in Fire Scale Continent hadn’t entirely recovered from his previous extraction.

“Ethan Smith, where the hell have you been?”

Salena Carpenter’s voice suddenly rang out.
