Super Gene Ⅱ: Evolution - Chapter 189

Chapter 189: Chapter 189: Seeing the Fire Seed Again

The term “breeding pig” was something Lin Shen was quite familiar with, as many people at Dark Bird Base used to curse him with it behind his back.

“What exactly do you mean?” Lin Shen asked with a frown.

“To put it crudely, I am just the Wan Family’s breeding pig, responsible for passing on the family lineage,” said Wan Nianbei.

Lin Shen had already guessed something when he first heard the term “breeding pig,” so he didn’t feel surprised.

“If the Wan Family wants you to continue the lineage, then they should have you marry and have children as soon as possible. Why would they oppose your relationship with my elder sister? Don’t tell me there is something wrong with my sister,” Lin Shen’s face chilled.

“No, Xiao Wu, you are misunderstanding; how could there be such a thing?” Wan Nianbei shook his head repeatedly, “The descendants that the Wan Family need are different from what you are thinking.”

“Put it this way, many races in the universe have children who are born at Steel Level, or even Alloy and Crystal Base Levels. The Wan Family needs children like that. To have such children, one must have parents who are special. Do you understand what I’m saying?” Wan Nianbei explained slowly.

“So, you are saying they want you to marry another special woman, so the children you have together could potentially be at the Steel Level, or maybe even Alloy Level or Crystal Base Level?” Lin Shen was genuinely surprised this time.

He had heard from Tian Xin that people from the Celestial Race are born at the Crystal Base Level, which was normal.

But for humans to be born as Base Variant Creatures was unheard of.

“Right, I know it’s hard to believe, but it’s not as difficult as you might imagine. Many great clans in the universe might have started out just like us humans, as very simple carbon-based life forms, and it’s only after billions of years of evolution that their descendants gradually developed traits of Base Variant Creatures…” Wan Nianbei explained.

“But that’s the accumulation of billions of years. Humans have such a short history, and have only been in contact with Base Variant Creatures for a short time. Don’t tell me that you have now evolved to the point where you can have such children,” Lin Shen was somewhat skeptical.

“My Evolution Skill is a bit special, but it would still be difficult to have such descendants with an ordinary human woman. However, if the woman was not an ordinary human, it would be much more likely,” Wan Nianbei said in a euphemistic manner, but Lin Shen still understood.

“The Wan Family wants you to marry a woman from another race?” Lin Shen asked, staring at him blankly.

“A member of the royal family of the Di Man Tribe,” Wan Nianbei said softly.

Lin Shen’s eyes widened as he looked at Wan Nianbei, finally understanding why the Wan Family was vehemently opposed to his relationship with his elder sister.

Lin Shen had heard of the Di Man Tribe, which was ranked similarly to the Celestial Race among the well-known clans in the universe.

If someone from the royal family of Di Man was to marry into the Wan Family, it would certainly be an upward move for the Wan Family. Lin Shen even doubted how the royal family of Di Man could lower themselves to Wan Nianbei’s level.

In the eyes of the universe, the human race was insignificant. How could the royal family of Di Man ever be willing to intermarry with humans? It sounded incredibly implausible.

“If I do not marry the princess of the Di Man Tribe, my relatives on the Alien World may face the danger of extinction. I don’t want to hurt Lin Miao, but I can’t watch so many of my clan perish because of me…” Wan Nianbei spoke calmly when he said this.

“Then why did you even come to see my sister? You shouldn’t have appeared again,” Lin Shen said, somewhat exasperated.

“I know. Your sister once had someone tell me that she already had someone in her heart, and I wasn’t planning to see her again. But only recently did I learn that she has been alone all this time,” Wan Nianbei looked at Lin Shen, “I want you to tell her my current situation, to let her stop waiting for me. We are not destined to be together in this lifetime; she should find someone to accompany her.”

“You think too highly of yourself. Whether my sister finds someone else is her own business. It had nothing to do with you before and it will have nothing to do with you in the future,” Lin Shen said, turning to leave.

There was nothing wrong with Wan Nianbei, but there wasn’t much left to say between him and the Lin Family.

“I know I was wrong, so before I go to the Di Man Tribe, I want to meet Lin Miao to settle our past issues and hope that we can both start over,” Wan Nianbei said to Lin Shen’s retreating figure.

“My older sister does not want to see you, which means she no longer wishes to be associated with you. Let’s leave the past behind. There’s no point in discussing it further,” Lin Shen said before leaving the garden.

After Lin Shen left, the skinny shopowner came over, patted Wan Nianbei on the shoulder, and said, “Old Wan, if it really comes to it, I’ll tie Lin Miao up and bring her here. You should see each other at least once before you leave.”

“No need, Little Five is right. If she doesn’t want to see me, it probably means she has let go… let go is good… that’s for the best…” Wan Nianbei seemed genuinely relieved.

“Good my ass! If she has let go, then why are you torturing yourself? Have you really thought it through, to enter reincarnation with the body of a Six Paths Phoenix? Do you really know what you’re doing? Do you realize what that means? Wan Nianbei, you must be crazy. For a woman, is it worth it?” The skinny shopowner couldn’t help but curse.

“It’s worth it,” Wan Nianbei answered with a single word. “Hei, if I fail, please take care of the Lin Family for me later; she has it so tough.”

“To hell with that, I am not your servant,” Hei snapped angrily.

…

Having left the shop, Lin Shen continued to wander around the sandfield, pondering whether or not to tell his older sister about Wan Nianbei’s situation.

Wan Nianbei was powerless to fight against destiny, and it seemed anything else said was already superfluous.

After some thought, Lin Shen eventually decided to tell his older sister and let her make her own decision.

After passing through the weapons section, he entered the area selling Base Mutation Eggs. This area’s variety of Base Mutation Eggs was even more diverse, many of which came from marine Base Variant Creatures.

However, mutations were rare and nearly impossible to find. Mutant creatures on the mother planet were still too scarce, nowhere near comparable to those on Realm King Planet.

While walking, Lin Shen suddenly saw a stall where among a pile of Base Mutation Eggs, one was covered with a thick mosaic.

“Finally!” Lin Shen was elated and hurriedly approached the stall.

The stall was piled with many Base Mutation Eggs. After asking casually, the stall owner said these eggs were hunted from the sea, all produced by marine Base Variant Creatures.

Lin Shen picked up the one with the Fire Seed and asked the owner, who said it was produced by a jellyfish-like Base Variant Creature from the sea, at the Steel Level, for five hundred.

Lin Shen, not in the mood to bargain, paid the money directly, bought the Base Mutation Egg, and tucked it into his backpack before continuing to browse.

After a while, he found another Base Mutation Egg covered with a mosaic.

This time, however, someone was already negotiating the price with the owner, and Lin Shen quickly made his way over.

Having finally found another, he was willing to pay a high price if necessary to secure it.
