Bang bang~

As soon as Ego admitted it, Star-Lord drew the Element Gun that Yondu had given him without a second thought and fired.

Two beams struck the face of Ego's clone, instantly creating two gaps that glowed with a pale blue light.

At the same time, another figure rushed forward at an extremely fast speed!

"Hey, don't bully my friend!"

Drax was armed with two daggers, but they were utterly useless against Ego...

"What are you doing?"

"Peter is my friend. If you anger him, you anger me!"

Ego was somewhat speechless, and casually tossed Drax away into the distance.

"Peter, we are gods! They are merely mortals... and false gods. Why do you think you could grasp the Power Stone with your bare hands? It's a gift from my bloodline, and of course, I can take it back at any time..."

"Hey, have you forgotten me?" Lin Xu put away his Crimson Cloak and slowly flew into the air. He knew that this planet was Ego's true form, and he could use every inch of land on it. To avoid disaster, avoiding contact was the best option.

"Asgard person, fifty thousand years have passed. I will repay the humiliation of fifty thousand years ago tenfold. I will deal with you first, then I will go and settle accounts with those two mortal sorcerers."

"The way you're talking makes it sound like I'm the villain. Are you going to say something like 'the river flows east for fifty thousand years'?"

After casually making a comment, Lin Xu silently wondered to himself, "Teachers, how are you all doing?"

At the same time, the voice of the Ancient One entered my mind. "Help me stall for two hours!"

Why did it take so long?

"He wasn't doing it voluntarily, and it wasn't as smooth as Odin's. To avoid wasting time, I have to go slower."

'Okay, I'll try...'

Just then, Ego suddenly realized something was wrong; he felt his divine power draining away. "Asgard person, what have you done? No, not you, but them!"

As he spoke, he began to place his mind into the Earth's core.

"I didn't say you could leave!"

Judging from the situation, it seemed that the Ancient One had begun to make his move. Without saying a word, Lin Xu immediately summoned his bone armor and used "Hoggoth's Hoary Hosts" while infusing it with the Flame of Vengeance.

A gigantic tiger phantom appeared behind Lin Xu, its eyes, flashing with white flames, fixed intently on the front. "Ego, you are guilty!"

Ego's spirit was immediately and briefly absorbed.

In those eyes, he saw all his former mates—humans, animals, plants, fungi—and watched them all die because they couldn't inherit his divine power.

"Was I wrong? Am I guilty? No!! I wasn't. They received my favor but gave me nothing in return, damn it!"

Seeing that Ego was about to break free, Lin Xu immediately called for backup, "Teletubbies, come help! I'm talking to you, the one with the long tentacles, if you don't want your brother to get sucked dry!"

The Mantis looked at Lin Xu, pointed to herself, and after receiving confirmation, she quickly took two steps back.

She had experienced Ego's power firsthand over the years, and she knew that if she helped him now, he would kill her first when Ego turned around.

Then, out of the corner of her eye, she saw Peter, who was still grieving. She knew that he was her brother. Compared to her father, Ego, who treated her like a servant, she preferred this brother who was full of flesh and blood.

Having mentally prepared herself, Mantis quickly walked up to Ego and placed her hands on his forehead.

The world is quiet!

"I... can't control it for much longer... at most 0.8 Ego."

Can it be converted to Earth Day?

"..."

"Enough for Ego to pee a few times?"

"... more than a hundred~"

"It's been almost an hour! Amazing, Teletubbies!"

Lin Xu fell from the sky to the ground.

"Drax, are you alright?"

"Help me out, I'm stuck..."

Lin Xu suppressed a laugh as he pulled Drax out of the crack in the brickwork.

It has to be said that although the Star Guardians are indeed a bit silly, they are absolutely devoted to their friends.

Gamora Drax up and down, and seeing that he wasn't seriously injured, she turned to Lin Xu: "You knew from the beginning?"

"That's right."

Why wait until now to expose it?

"Because of his status."

"He just said he's some kind of... god?"

"This ball..."

"Watt?"

"You don't think that's his true form, do you? If you do, you're sorely mistaken. What you're standing on right now is him! What you see is merely an avatar he created using divine power."

Star-Lord, who was still deep in thought, suddenly broke down. "You're saying my dad is a planet? That's not scientific... Hey, Drax, what are you doing?"

Drax withdrew his hands from Star-Lord's body. "Sorry, I was just checking if you were a little ball, hahaha."

"Please, I'm a person, a living, breathing person, and my mother is a person too. How could she give birth to a ball!"

After Peter finished speaking, he noticed that Drax was tiptoeing toward Ego's clone.

What are you doing now?

"Let me see if he made a miniature Ego for his clone."

"Shit!"

Gamora glanced at the two of them speechlessly, then asked, "You said he's a planet, so can we blow him up from inside?"

"Someone's already inside. Otherwise, why would I let the Teletubbies control him? In just two hours, Ego will go from a Celestials to... a dead Celestials."

Gamora woke up instantly upon hearing this!

"Your initial target was him, and Ego knew you were Asgard person; you two already had a feud. You deliberately followed him, so you're not Peter's uncle at all!!"

As soon as Gamora those words, Drax and Star-Lord immediately turned their gazes to Lin Xu.

"You're really too smart. No wonder Thanos values you so much."

Compared to Gamora's wariness, Drax instantly breathed a sigh of relief. Thank goodness she didn't join in calling him "uncle"—that guy was too wicked!

Star-Lord was left with nothing but despair. Finding two relatives in one day should have been a good thing, but one turned out to be a fake, and the other was his mother's killer.

Lin Xu stepped forward and put his arm around Star-Lord's shoulder. "But it's not a loss for you to call me Uncle, I am indeed from your maternal grandfather's generation."

Seeing Peter's clearly disbelieving expression, Lin Xu continued to deceive him, "You know Steve Rogers, right?"

"That sounds familiar, Captain America?"

"That's right, it was dug out of the glacier a few years ago. We're friends."

"... What does this have to do with me?"

"How can it not be related? Steve even dated your grandma!" (In She-Hulk, Banner mentioned that Captain America lost his virginity during a charity performance in 1943. The actress who played Star-Lord's mother also appeared in Captain America, during a charity performance, but this has not been officially confirmed by Marvel.)
