The Sichuan Tang Clan’s Entomologist

Fabre was not a man accustomed to peace. As a streamer with millions of followers, his fame was built on the razor's edge of danger, each broadcast a heart-stopping dance with the world's most lethal serpents and arthropods. That perilous career met its abrupt end in the African wilds, where the fangs of a black mamba delivered not a mortal blow, but a bizarre rebirth. He opened his eyes to find himself in the unfamiliar, mystical realm of Murim, a world of martial artists and ancient secrets. The untamed jungles of this new land, teeming with exotic and venomous flora and fauna, offered something his old life never could: a tranquil existence. Here, he could forsake the thrill of the hunt for the simple, quiet joy of cultivating his own collection of poisonous species, far from the clamor of his former audience. Yet, the serenity of his new farming life is an illusion that cannot last. His peaceful sanctuary is soon discovered by the Tang Clan, a family of martial artists whose name is synonymous with poison and cunning. Recognizing the unique talent in this outsider who treats their deadliest tools as a gardener treats his flowers, they see not a farmer, but a prodigal son. Their offer is a demand cloaked in hospitality: join their ranks and embrace a legacy of shadows and toxins. For Fabre, the choice is a haunting echo of his past life—a chance to return to the world of danger, but on a scale more profound than any live stream could capture. The call of the Tang Clan forces him to decide if he is truly ready to trade his hard-won peace for a place in a family whose arts are as lethal as they are legendary.
