Feng Rao had no idea how she could resist Shi Yan.
She couldn’t make Shi Yan didn’t leave. So her only option was to hide her body under the water to clean up. Since she hadn’t had the chance to touch such clean water for a long time, she didn’t want to let this chance slip away.
The water in the pond was transparent. Even if she was hiding underwater, Shi Yan would still be able to see the heart-touching white areas of her body. He had a nice view just from staying here.
He had touched her body many times. It seemed like Feng Rao had accepted her destiny. She didn’t dodge anymore and simply let him watch her clean and wash.
Shi Yan was lying on his side of the rock by the pond, his face cold and solemn. Then, he chuckled. He jumped into the pond, bathing just a dozen meters from Feng Rao. He looked at the starry sky above his head and relaxed.
Feng Rao was startled. She thought that Shi Yan would harass her again. She was on guard. After she confirmed that Shi Yan wasn’t planning to harass her, she calmed down her tense nerves.
The Raging Flame Star Area and the Grace Mainland seemed to be infinitely far from each other. They were so far away from each other that even if Shi Yan had used all of his Immortal Demon Blood, he wouldn’t be able to sense anything from the other side.
Wandering alone in a strange area, it was hard to find a moment to relax. Looking at the sea star that seemed to never end, he couldn’t help but feel homesick.
It has been dozens of years since he arrived in the Grace Mainland. His memories of the other world faded gradually.
He had lost his parents and now, under another starry sky, he once again didn’t have a family. At that moment, he was uncontrollably wild. He liked to stretch his limits and seek for pleasure. He didn’t have brothers or any close relationships. Also, he didn’t have anyone who we wanted to be sincere and kind to.
After he had descended to the Grace Mainland, he had a new identity of a completely different Shi Yan. From that moment, he had experienced the affections that a family can give. Shi Jian and the Shi family had treated him well as he was the hope of the family. They had taken care of him.
He had dazzling life experiences in the Grace Mainland. He felt that his life finally had a meaning and he had passions that he wanted to pursue.
There were many heart-touching moments in this place that he would never forget for the rest of his life. Looking at the starry sky, the images, which were somehow both familiar and strange to him, flashed vividly in his head.
A light dot appeared in the starry sea above his head. It gradually enlarged. They could vaguely see that it was a battleship, which was prominent among the star dots. It was moving quickly towards them.
Shi Yan got up abruptly. He immediately moved towards Feng Rao in the pond, letting out a low shout,
A battleship!
Feng Rao was startled. She hastened to cover her charming body with another leather robe. She glared at him angrily before lifting her head to look at the sky.
After Pang Jia, Han Di, and Ganji died, Shi Yan took their jade tokens. A magical life energy reflected in the jade tokens. Shi Yan immediately took one of them out and held it in his hand. He relaxed his mind.
Feng Rao reacted shortly. She took out her jade token to conceal her aura.
Crack!
The firm rock foundation of the pond exploded, revealing a deep cave. Shi Yan didn’t say anything, pulling Feng Rao into the cave that was under the pond. He hauled a big rock to seal a large portion of the entrance. His cold and gloomy eyes pierced through the pond water to watch the sky.
Since he hid his life energy and his God Body, the warriors on that battleship would never be able to sense them unless they had the high Sky of Original God Realm.
Who could they possibly be?
Shi Yan asked Feng Rao. He frowned. He wasn’t familiar with the layout of the Raging Flame Star Area. He didn’t know which force this area belonged to and who would pass by frequently.
Feng Rao knitted her bold brows.
Only the battleships of the Nine Star Chamber of Commerce travel through this area. Sometimes the space pirates would wait here to rob the Nine Star Chamber of Commerce’s battleships. Anyway, this area is relatively safe compared to other places. Battles rarely take place here.
The cave Shi Yan had made wasn’t big. As the two of them squeezed inside this cave, they had to stay close to each other. They could feel the body temperature of the other through their soaked clothes.
Feng Rao’s face was odd as she unconsciously looked where her hand was touching. She frowned and jolted to stay away from him.
Shi Yan found that immediately. He just smiled, looking at her.
Where on your body haven’t I touched you yet? Why are you being so polite to me?
Feng Rao hated him deeply in her heart. She clenched her jaw. Resentment sparkled in her eyes as she lowered her voice,
I swear, one day, you will pay a big price!
It was alright when she said nothing, but after she finished her threat, Shi Yan chuckled evilly and leaned closer to her. Space power appeared which binded her.
While she was startled, Shi Yan pulled her to his chest with one hand. Feng Rao fell into his embrace. Shi Yan smiled until his eyes squinted.
I told you, I’m soft-hearted. If you want me to cooperate with your father, the other tricks won’t work. I told you that using your beauty would work. Anyway, we’re intimate. Marriage would be enough to have you on my side.
Ghosts buy it!
Feng Rao gritted her teeth. As she wanted to wiggle, she suddenly paled and shouted slightly,
Bloody Chief Skull pirate! They’re Russell’s men! Be careful!
Shi Yan was surprised. He stopped his teasing and faced the sky. His face darkened.
The battleship appeared in their sight slowly. It was seven or eight hundred meters long, which was made of some strange gray wood. Blood stained everywhere on the body of this battleship. They could even see some darker spots where blood had dried and stained.
Blood-dripping skulls were hung along the body of the ship. They belonged to different races with different sizes. Each skull was hung onto the battleship by a small rope. At first glance, it had several thousand skulls, which intimidated people.
An eccentrically beautiful bloody skull flag swayed on the battleship. This flag seemed to have been recently soaked in fresh blood because blood was still dripping from it.
Warriors standing on the battleship were watching here and there. All of them looked malicious and brutal. Ferocious light sparkled from their eyes.
The Bloody Chief Skull Pirate is a mighty force of the Land of God Punishment. Russell is the boss. He has the First Sky of Original God Realm. He is ranked just behind my father in the Land of God Punishment,
said Feng Rao with a cold visage.
Russell is infamous. He likes blood-dripping skulls. After he kills an expert, he would behead him to have the spoils to hang on his battleship. The Bloody Chief Skull Battleship is made from the Bloody Sulfur Tree. The tree’s material is tougher than any metals. It can conceal the auras of the voyagers. This toy is very fast and tough.
Russell, the leader of the Bloody Chief Skull Pirates,was one of the space pirates based in the Land of God Punishment. He had the Original God Realm cultivation base with brute deeds. In the Land of God Punishment, he was one of the small numbers of warriors who could fight Feng Ke.
This is his territory?
Shi Yan frowned,
according to you, this place doesn’t have many battles taken place, does it?
Yeah. Battles are rare, but it doesn’t mean there will always be nothing.
Feng Rao rubbed her head, talking with a headache.
Russell and his Bloody Chief Skull pirates won’t leave their lair, usually. I think they have a big operation today which is why they are coming to this place. I’m sure some battleships that transport materials are about to pass this area. Russell came here to prepare his ambush beforehand.
Shi Yan got serious, embracing Feng Rao with both arms while increasing the energy in his body. He was vigilant. Once Feng Rao made strange moves, he would subdue her immediately.
Feng Rao’s father was Feng Ke, the true devil hero of the Land of God Punishment. Perhaps he would have a good relationship with Russell. When Russell knew he got Feng Rao and his whereabouts was disclosed, it would be hard to escape.
You don’t need to be so careful.
Feng Rao felt like she got an electric shock. She blushed unnaturally, clenching her jaw.
Russell doesn’t get along well with my father. Everybody knows that. If he knows you are detaining me, he won’t help me. And he would even facilitate you.
Shi Yan smiled begrudgingly, but he didn’t buy it, still hugging her tight. He whispered in her ear,
I don’t care about him, just watch now.
Feng Rao was enraged as she knew that he just wanted to harass her. But she was at her wit’s end.
Cursing herself for falling into this low situation, Feng Rao hastened to gather herself together, forcing her mind to be clear. She talked with rage,
Let off me first.
You see, I think they came here to make a base,
Shi Yan didn’t care about her words, pointing at the space above their head.
This mineral star has been abandoned. Still, it has a lot of mines. They can hide in those mines and not build anything. Seems like Russell is going to have a big business here. I wonder who his poor target is.
Of course, it’s the Nine Star Chamber of Commerce. I heard that Russell and the Nine Star Chamber of Commerce have a bloody grudge. It’s been so many years, and he still wants to grip the Nine Star Chamber of Commerce. I heard that he used to be a member of the Nine Star Chamber of Commerce. However, his family was eradicated and he got people chasing after him. That was why he escaped to the Land of God Punishment.
Seeing that he wasn’t going to let her free and with no way of getting out, she explained through her gritted teeth,
The Nine Star Chamber of Commerce wants to kill him. It’s been years. If the Land of God Punishment didn’t have so many dangerous places to hide, Russell would have died already. However, now that Russell has reached the Original God Realm, he has the capacity to resist the Nine Star Chamber of Commerce. Lately, he’s become the mad dog that keeps gazing at the Nine Star Chamber of Commerce. I think it’s not an exception this time either.
Haha, I feel like I have more eyes having you here. It will be much easier traveling in the Land of God Punishment with you then.
Shi Yan smiled. His big mouth caressed Feng Rao’s earlobe.
Feng Rao jolted as if she got an electric shock. Her plump body shivered uncontrollably. Her white skin reddened.
Shi Yan just smiled. Behind Feng Rao’s neck, his eyes were as calm and cold as usual. He didn’t actually want to do anything with her.
Shi Yan decided to conquer this woman and make her follow him willingly. She would become one of his hands to help him claim the new star area.
