Chapter 728: Blood Skull (2nd Update)
Chapter 728: Chapter 728: Blood Skull (2nd Update)
Xue An’s words stunned the crowd, and it took a while for anyone to regain their composure.
“Sir, then what about these people…” someone asked, pointing to the City Lord of Silver City and other nobles on the ground.
Xue An replied indifferently, “They are naturally those who aided tyranny!”
Upon hearing these words, the prestige that the City Lord of Silver City had built up over decades collapsed in an instant.
Countless people with red eyes rushed forward, surrounding the already powerless City Lord of Silver City, and attacked him with various innate abilities.
Although the City Lord of Silver City was powerful, he had been seriously injured by Xue An, and was now being attacked by so many people, thus, in the blink of an eye, he was reduced to rubble.
As for those nobles, not even one of them managed to escape.
The most miserable among them was Xiong Xi.
He had just sensed the bad situation and tried to sneak away quietly.
But how could Ah Tu allow this fellow who had repeatedly opposed their lord to escape?
Therefore, in a flash of thought from Ah Tu, a dozen blades of light severed Xiong Xi’s limbs.
He was then dismembered by the people who rushed up.
In an instant, the nobles and the City Lord of Silver City, who had just been lofty, had become but a mass of flesh and blood on the ground.
Xue An glanced at Xu Gao, who was pale beside him, and smiled faintly, “What do you think would happen if I threw you down there now?”
Xu Gao trembled all over and pleaded, “Sir, spare my life, I really have nothing to do with these matters! I was just following orders!”
Xue An laughed, “I was just scaring you. Do you think I would really kill you? After all, you still have a more important role to play!”
Xu Gao felt a chill in his heart, unsure of what the more important role Xue An mentioned was.
Xue An, holding Xu Gao, leaped down from the tower, and the crowd respectfully made way for them.
Xue An approached Ah Tu and released several women from inside the Magic Treasures Pavilion.
When the crowd suddenly saw a few more women appear, they were stirred.
Chen Xiaomei walked up to Ah Tu and said, “Brother!”
Ah Tu, seeing his sister’s rosy cheeks and excellent complexion, couldn’t help but smile, and then looked at Xue An with some hesitation.
“Sir…”
Xue An gestured with his hand, “I am leaving!”
Although Ah Tu had been expecting this, he still couldn’t suppress a shiver when he heard the confirmation.
Chen Xiaomei’s eyes reddened even more, and tears had already started to fall.
“Alright, this world has begun to gradually recover. Given the size of this planet, the spiritual energy should recongeal in less than a hundred years, and you will be able to cultivate. By then, I will naturally come back!”
Despite his words, Ah Tu still looked down dejectedly.
Meanwhile, the two girls were bidding their tearful farewells to Chen Xiaomei.
“Sister Xiaomei, this is your favorite chocolate candy. I’ve packed it all inside; it should be enough for you to eat for a long time!” Xiang Xiang said.
“This is ice cream. It’s a pity this can’t be kept for long; you should eat it quickly!” Nian Nian added.
Chen Xiaomei tearfully accepted the gifts.
Xue An looked at Ah Tu and said, “Your talent and character are both good. I hope that after I leave, you will always remain the same. If you ever act unlawfully like these people, I will not spare you when I return!”
Ah Tu’s heart grew solemn, and he responded with serious respect, “Sir, rest assured, Ah Tu understands this principle!”
Xue An nodded, surveyed the crowd with a slight smile, and then, along with An Yan and his two daughters, began to ascend into the sky, approaching the nearby starship.
Although the pirate ship had been brought down by two punches from Xue An, it hadn’t sustained any substantial damage.
After Xue An and his company entered the hatch, the starship quickly ascended and soared high into the sky, before disappearing into the heavens.
All the people of Silver City looked up and watched this scene.
Many people did not know Xue An’s name, but the entire planet had been saved by him.
So shortly after.
A statue of Xue An appeared in the Silver Square, becoming the most prominent structure there.
And the statue of him always gazed up at the sky, as if waiting for someone’s return.
The pirate ship flew out of the planet’s atmosphere and entered outer space.
“Stop!”
The spaceship came to an abrupt halt.
“My lord, what’s the matter?” Xu Gao asked, trembling with fear.
“Oh, nothing much, I just have some things to get!”
With that, Xue An darted out of the spaceship, his physical body directly descending into space.
Then with a casual wave of his hand, a radiant golden starship appeared right in front of the spaceship.
Xu Gao gaped in astonishment, his jaw nearly dropping to the ground.
“Heavens… This is… a starship!”
In this vast universe,
there were two completely different kinds of flying vessels.
One kind, like this spaceship, followed the technological path.
The advantage was that the threshold was very low; as long as the technology was in place, even ordinary people could traverse the Starry Sea.
But the more sophisticated the technology, the more vulnerable it became.
Especially in the perilous depths of space, spaceships were still too dangerous.
The other kind followed the path of cultivators.
This starship was a representative of that kind.
Although the threshold was high, requiring a high cultivation level to operate,
because they were very sturdy and much faster than the spaceships,
they had become synonymous with the high-end.
Xu Gao was just an ordinary person, so when he saw this golden starship, he naturally showed a face full of amazement.
This starship was much larger than any he had seen before, and its aura was even more majestic and imposing.
All of this further proved the man’s unfathomable depth.
Xu Gao’s heart grew even more fearful.
By now, Xue An had already retracted the starship and returned on board the spaceship.
“My… my lord, where do we go next?” Xu Gao asked.
Xue An indifferently said, “To where you came from!”
“Where I came from?” Xu Gao was taken aback, then he understood and his face instantly turned pale.
“My lord, are you saying… ”
Xue An nodded, “That’s right, to your Blood Skull Pirate Guild!”
Xu Gao was on the verge of tears, “My lord, if I take you there, they will definitely not spare me, they will surely tear me apart, and even you…!”
Xu Gao paused, taking a covert glance at Xue An’s expression, and swallowed hard before continuing, “Although you are very powerful, the guild is heavily guarded, and if you go there alone…”
Xue An smiled, “Don’t worry, just hurry on our way!”
Seeing this, Xu Gao inwardly groaned yet did not dare to disobey, reluctantly nodding his head with a gloomy face, “Yes!”
Then he steered the spaceship, abruptly accelerating and vanishing from the spot.
The starry pirates were all exceedingly cunning and brutal beings.
And their ranks were very diverse.
Among them were powerhouses strong enough to carve out their own place in The Multiverse Realms.
These powerhouses ruled over their own territories, already becoming local tyrants and could no longer be simply described as mere pirates.
