The burly man went into a stupor for a while, seemingly unable to comprehend what had just happened.

“How did this Demonic Beast self-detonate? What happened here?”

Ethan Smith was at a loss for words: “Is your head just filled with muscles?”

“Ah, it was you who did it?”

The burly man finally reacted. However, after considering Ethan's words carefully, he was suddenly filled with rage.

“You dare to foolishly identify yourself as my grandfather! You shall die!”

The burly man held his double axes, his eyes blazing red. In an instant, the twin axes were covered in a layer of red flame as a fierce wind, centered around the axes, exploded out in all directions.

He was indeed at the peak of the Semi-Saint realm, seemingly one step away from reaching the True Saint Realm.

“Be careful! Brother Clayton Schmidt” Mabel Nebula's voice trembled a bit.

She had never witnessed such a terrifying aura before, while Jago Nebula's legs were shaking like a sieve.

Boom!

Under the terrifying strike, even the several dozen-ton warship started to sway.

“Ignorant creatures, dare to provoke me into anger!”

The burly man put away his double axes, looking down at people on the warship with a sly grin.

Uncle Kortez turned pale: “You are from the Skeleton Gang?”

Due to the long duration of star system travel, many people carry precious treasures with them. As a result, notorious gangs that rob and block roads have emerged. The Skeleton Gang is one of them, and this burly man happens to be one of their infamous captains.

It was only after his recent attack that Uncle Kortez recognized him.

“I am willing to offer the Qingling Tree, please let us go, friend.”

Uncle Kortez said, a drop of sweat unknowingly slipping down.

“I've changed my mind. Bring the girl into my room, kill all the others, and then burn down this rotten ship for me.”

The burly man leered at Mabel Nebula.

“Ahem, you muscle-head, have you forgotten your grandfather?”

Ethan Smith was left speechless.

He originally thought his casual show of strength would scare the burly man, but he completely ignored him.

“Eh, who are you?”

The burly man looked puzzled. Earlier, his attack could have turned any Late Returning Void Stage opponent to ashes. He hadn't expected Ethan Smith to be unaffected.

Without uttering a single word, Ethan Smith stepped forward, appearing beside the burly man, and then pressed a palm towards his shoulder.

In that instant, an overwhelming killing intent enveloped the entire space. Everyone felt like they were encased in Ten Thousand Years of Cold Ice, their legs unable to move.

A horrible smell suddenly wafted across Uncle Kortez's warship as a chunk of a shit-colored object appeared behind Jago Nebula.

The moment before the palm landed, the burly man's body had already been ripped apart.

“Spare me, mighty warrior! I am from the Skeleton Gang. We can share the treasure on this ship fifty-fifty. If you kill me, our leader won't let you off!”

“Die!”

Ethan Smith was expressionless. He harbored no remorse for the people who killed and plundered without a second thought.

“Rumble!”

The space where the burly man stood was as if it was hit by a level 12 wind, bursting into thunder and lightning.

The burly man and all the people behind him were obliterated into dust with nothing left, not even a speck of dust.

A hole was left in the warship.

“So this is the power of a True Saint! Now, I have no fear of fighting Chad Wilson!”

Ethan Smith closed his eyes, feeling the thrill of his first real action in more than a decade. With a mere whim, he had pulverized the Returning Void Peak into dust.

“Sir?”

Uncle Kortez was trembling near him. The space before them was still buzzing with electric discharges, the residual echoes of that powerful strike resonating in his heart and filling him with fear. He was terrified at what Ethan might do next.

Only then did Ethan come to his senses, realizing that everyone on the ship was watching him, their eyes filled with terror.

As he was about to say something, an offensive odor suddenly filled his nostrils.

“Damn, who took a dump?”

Ethan cursed loudly.

Only then did everyone notice Jago Nebula, whose fear had literally caused him to lose control of his bowels. A few people couldn't hide their disgust.

But it wasn't entirely Jago's fault. Ethan's attack released decades of murderous intent.

He had deliberately protected the others from that horrific killing intent, but he had consciously chosen to ignore this disrespectful person.

“Mr. Smith, you should make your getaway soon.”

Uncle Kortez suddenly voiced his concern.

Looking at Ethan, who had a puzzled look on his face,

“The person who was just killed by Mr. Smith was a captain of the Skeleton Gang. The Rune information on the ship has been transmitted, the Skeleton Gang probably knows what happened here by now. They are most likely rushing over.”

“Uncle Kortez, wouldn't the Skeleton Gang's response be too fast? The incident just happened in an instant.”

Mabel Nebula blinked her eyes, watching Ethan with full of admiration. She knew that with a single strike, all the people of the Skeleton Gang had been taken down.

“The Skeleton Gang has existed for a long time and they have even stronger members, especially the Gang Master who has reached the peak of the True Saint realm. The information transfer between warships is instantaneous. I fear that the nearby members are already on their way!”

Uncle Kortez said with a worried look on his face.

“It doesn't matter, even if the Gang Master comes, I will repel him!”

Ethan said lightly, let out a sigh. A gang master is merely at the True Saint realm.

It seems that the corner of the universe is too Spiritually sparse to breed powerful figures.

Uncle Kortez nodded and sighed.

The Skeleton Gang has been around for so long for a reason, even after Ethan demonstrated his terrifying strength.

But so what? That was a whole gang.

“Where would I go if I wanted to find out information about the Holy Region?”

Ethan asked, seeing the worried look on Uncle Kortez's face.

“The closest is the Black Platform Star System, 2 light years from here. It's a supply station where people from all around the star systems gather. Of course, there are also merchants who sell all kinds of information.”

Uncle Kortez said after thinking for a bit.

“But as far as I know, there is a Skeleton Gang base there.”

“It doesn't matter.”

Ethan moved, and his body appeared on the Skeleton Gang's warship.

Where his gaze landed, there were still five people of varying ranks on the ship.

“Can you drive this ship? I need to go to the Black Platform!”

“Yes! Yes! But the warship was damaged by Sir, it needs half a year for repair!”

A thin man with a sharp mouth was responding hastily. A barely perceptible sneer hinged at the corner of his mouth.

He had already transmitted the information here, and soon Skeleton Gang members nearby would arrive. By then, they could kill this arrogant man.

“Half a year? What good does it do to keep you then?”

Faced with Ethan's divine sense, this minion's little tricks were plainly viewable. Ethan smashed the underling's head with a simple slap.

He didn't have time to waste. Thinking of the sacrifices Emily made for him sent a pang through his heart.
