Chapter 1597
Chapter 1597: Chapter 1597: News From the Northern Border_1 Chapter 1597: Chapter 1597: News From the Northern Border_1 The two of them didn't know how long they had walked before they arrived at Bamboo Mountain, Gregory Hum's residence.
Before they even set foot on Bamboo Mountain, Gregory Hum was already waiting for them early.
It's not that he was incredibly perceptive, but he smelled an overwhelming aura and murderous spirit, mistaking it for an enemy, and so he stepped out in advance.
When he saw that the visitor was Ethan Smith, he couldn't help but be slightly dumbfounded.
Afterward, Gregory Hum's gaze fell on Drexel.
“Who is this?” Gregory Hum asked curiously.
“I am the most formidable god of slaughter in this universe, call me…”
“Just call him Drexel.”
Drexel's boasting was interrupted by Ethan Smith.
“Go to hell! You're the one called Drexel!” Drexel roared in anger.
Ethan Smith was too lazy to argue with him and looked at Gregory Hum, saying, “He's a friend of mine, no need to worry.”
“Your friend has such a powerful aura,” Gregory Hum whispered.
He couldn't help but be cautious as he looked at Drexel. For some reason, he felt that Drexel didn't seem like a good person.
Ethan Smith had no way of explaining to Gregory Hum, so he changed the subject.
Then, Ethan Smith informed Gregory Hum about Ken Middleton's situation.
After hearing the story, Gregory couldn't help but be surprised before laughing. “Big Brother Ken Middleton…he always does surprising things. Forcing two large continents to move, besides him, no one would dare to think about it.”
Ethan Smith bitterly smiled, “That's right, so now I need your help.”
As for Gregory Hum, he agreed readily without hesitation.
As soon as Gregory Hum agreed, Ethan Smith intended to go directly to Justin Vasquez since he was the one who had been searching for the necessary materials.
Soon after, Gregory Hum found an opportunity to take Ethan Smith aside and whispered, “Ethan, you must be careful with this friend of yours. His body…has a natural evil aura, an uncontrollable malice.”
Ethan Smith glanced at Drexel not far away and nodded, “I know, don't worry, Senior Gregory.”
Gregory Hum acknowledged with a grunt and didn't say more.
“How has Salena Carpenter been lately?” Ethan Smith asked.
Gregory Hum spread his hands, “As always.”
Ethan Smith sighed slightly and said, “Let's take her with us to the North Plain this time. I won't be at ease otherwise.”
“That was my intention as well,” said Gregory Hum.
At that moment, Ethan Smith suddenly thought of Drexel.
“Do you know alchemy?” Ethan Smith asked.
Drexel glanced at Ethan Smith and said, “I know jack shit.”
Seeing this, Ethan Smith didn't ask any further.
Afterward, Ethan Smith and Drexel followed Gregory Hum into Bamboo Mountain.
They went straight to the room where Salena Carpenter was asleep. Her ongoing slumber remained undisturbed, and her breath grew even fainter.
Looking at her slightly immature face, Ethan Smith felt an indescribable emotion.
“Hm? A Nirvana Body?”
At that moment, Drexel, who was at the side, suddenly furrowed his brows.
Hearing this, Ethan Smith's eyes brightened, and he quickly looked at Drexel, asking, “You know about the Nirvana Body?”
“Nonsense, I've traveled all over the place, and back then…”
“Alright, stop boasting. Do you know how to break the curse of the Nirvana Body?” Ethan Smith interrupted Drexel's words.
Drexel said solemnly, “I heard of a method.”
“What method?” Ethan Smith eagerly asked.
Drexel shook his head and said, “I forgot.”
“You…” Ethan Smith couldn't help but clench his fists, wanting to punch him.
“Let me think about it. Maybe one day I'll remember,” Drexel said.
Ethan Smith was too lazy to continue their useless conversation and decided to put Salena Carpenter in the Bronze Coffin.
The well-preserved divine body had been contained in the Bronze Coffin for many years, so it must have its unique traits. At present, it was the best choice to hold Salena Carpenter.
After taking Salena with them, the three of them headed straight for Justin Vasquez's residence.
The three of them went directly to the Vasquez family.
Riding on the Divine Eagle, they soared high in the sky.
The Southern Province was as usual, with cultivators from the North Plain visible everywhere. They seemed to have settled down in this land, and their traces could be found every few stars.
After a long time, the three finally arrived at the Vasquez family.
Unfortunately, Justin Vasquez was not at home.
His guest informed Ethan Smith that Justin had left several days ago and had not yet returned.
Hearing this, Ethan Smith couldn't help but speculate, “Justin must have gone to get the materials for me.”
“The Vasquez family, back in the day his father was a legendary figure too,” Gregory Hum said, reminiscing by the side.
Ethan Smith laughed and said, “Senior Gregory, did you know his father?”
Gregory Hum shook his head, “I don't know him personally, just heard of him.”
Ethan Smith hummed in response and didn't ask further.
Drexel, nearby, had his eyes slightly closed as his divine sense covered more than half of the Vasquez family estate.
“There are quite a few treasures in this Vasquez family,” Drexel murmured softly.
Hearing his words, Ethan Smith warned, “Don't think about stealing their treasures; you absolutely cannot take them. Do you understand?”
Drexel looked at Ethan Smith and sneered, “Stealing? I've always snatched the things I want directly. Robbery? That's a coward's way.”
Ethan Smith couldn't help but stick out his tongue.
What would the man with the mustache think if he heard this?
Over the next few days, Ethan Smith and Gregory Hum stayed temporarily at the Vasquez family residence.
The Vasquez family's guests were all extremely curious about the two and visited them almost every day.
Over time, Ethan Smith and the guests became good friends.
Speaking of which, Justin Vasquez was quite generous. He let these guests come and go freely in his enormous home without ever imposing any restrictions.
Whether for eating, drinking, playing, or entertaining, the Vasquez family offered an all-inclusive guarantee. As a result, Justin was very popular among the younger generation, with an extensive network of friends who would respond to his every call.
A few days passed.
Ethan Smith and the other guests were sitting as usual in the pavilion, drinking tea and chatting idly when Justin Vasquez approached them from a distance.
“Young Master Justin, you're back.”
Seeing Justin, numerous guests stood up and greeted him warmly.
Justin responded to them with a smile, and then his gaze fell on Ethan Smith.
Ethan Smith also quickly stood up and followed Justin to the side.
“How did it go? Did you find all the materials?” Ethan Smith asked.
Justin Vasquez remained silent for a moment, his expression extremely serious.
“What's wrong?” Seeing this expression, Ethan Smith suddenly had a bad feeling.
Justin sighed and said, “I think you don't need to look for these materials anymore.”
Hearing this, Ethan Smith frowned and asked, “What do you mean?”
Justin said solemnly, “Do you remember what I told you before? Senior Ken Middleton may have been trying to get you out of the way, and now that's been confirmed.”
Ethan Smith remained silent, but he had a bad feeling in his heart.
“I just got news that Senior Ken Middleton has forcefully crossed the Dead River and gone to the northern border. Now, he has been fighting against the three Godly Kings of the North Plain for several days.” Justin said solemnly.
