Blue Demon’s Headquarter, Heaven Punishment City.
The four leaders of the pirates, Feng Ke, Jie Nong, Barrette, and Russell, were gathering together with more than ten other pirate leaders. They were all solemn as they were going to decide whether they should leave or stay in the Heaven Punishment City.
We must go. If we delay, Fan He will catch us shortly,
Feng Ke slammed his brows together.
He is different from Ao Gu Duo and Li Yue Feng. Fan He is at the Third Sky of Original God Realm. You guys all know his perilous features. It has been years since the Nine Star Chamber of Commerce started thriving under Fan He’s management. His mighty force is the peak of the entire Raging Flame Star Area!
Everybody fell into silence.
Fan He’s reputation was widespread in the Raging Flame Star Area. At the Third Sky of Original God Realm, he was the well-know zenith of the Raging Flame Star Area, which had the same meaning with the word ‘invincible.’
When such a character suddenly came to the Heaven Punishment City, no one in Feng Ke’s group was able to resist. They could be killed instantly right when they saw him.
Feng Ke’s group didn’t think that the hermit in the Heaven Punishment City would risk his life to battle Fan He for them, either.
More importantly, no one knew the real intention of that hermit or if he was an equal opponent to Fan He or not.
Feng Ke’s group also didn’t want to entrust their lives in the hands of someone they didn’t know.
Anyway, when we leave the Heaven Punishment City, they won’t be afraid of anything. They would come to take the star map. Ao Gu Duo, Li Yue Feng, and Bi Tian are all at the Second Sky of Original God Realm. They haven’t taken action yet because they are afraid of that mysterious hermit. They followed the rules of the Heaven Punishment City. But when we leave the Heaven Punishment City, we’re not sure if that hermit will be able to take care of us or not. It will be big trouble for us then,
said a leader of the pirates.
This is also why they hadn’t come to a conclusion yet.
Ao Gu Duo, Li Yue Feng, and Bi Tian were all at the Second Sky of Original God Realm, the same with Feng Ke. However, their real competencies would be one level higher.
Any force of the said three forces was a big threat to them. Once they joined hands, the chance for the pirates to escape was tiny.
Are Ao Gu Duo, Li Yue Feng, Bi Tian stronger than Fan He, the Headmaster of the Fan family?
Feng Ke contemplated for a while then gave a low shout.
Hearing him, everybody else paled. Russell’s eyebrows convulsed. He said with a savage face,
Compared to Fan He, Ao Gu Duo, and the others are easier to deal with. Fan He has achieved wicked and cruel deeds. He came here because of his dead brother. His wrath of anger will destroy the entire Heaven Punishment City!
What do you mean?
Jie Nong frowned, asking.
Leave! We must leave! Hurry up!
Russell said resolutely and decisively.
Jie Nong was shaken, nodded,
If you say so, I agree with you.
In this group, Russell had the deepest resentment against the Fan family. The thought of killing the Fans was always in his mind. Today, Fan He was coming, which could be one time in a blue moon, but he decided to give it up. The others saw how terrifying Fan He was to him.
Russell was famous for being the man to seek revenge for the slightest grievances. He was also a narrow-minded person. If he decided to quit, it left only one possibility as the other was too dangerous!
Any other idea?
Feng Ke raked through the crowd but he actually just asked Russell, Jie Nong, Barrette, and Jester, because these four were like him: they had the Original God Realm. And he only considered warriors at this level.
I have no idea. I agree to leave.
Me too.
Agreed.
Let’s go.
Russell, Jie Nong, Barrette, and Jester were the four experts at the Original God Realm. They all nodded and expressed that they wanted to leave as soon as possible.
When the five Original God Realm experts all came to a conclusion, the other’s ideas became trivial.
Alright, we should prepare now. I know you are almost finished with our arrangement. We should leave early. We can’t delay it any longer,
Feng Ke took a deep breath and comforted people.
The three forces don’t get along well. They won’t really unite and they aren’t familiar with the forbidden lands outside the Land of God Punishment. And we’ve united to fight and protect our lives. We know the forbidden lands outside the Land of God Punishment like the back of our hands. This is our territory. Once we leave the Land of God Punishment and enter the forbidden lands in outer space, shouldn’t we be able to cut them off?
Hearing him, everybody calmed down. Even the ones who didn’t agree with them had nodded their head.
It’s true that the land outside the Land of God Punishment was a matrix of forbidden areas. Many of them were hazardous. People who weren’t familiar with the conditions could be punished with fatal consequences.
Even if they got the Original God Realm cultivation base, it wouldn’t make them an exception.
As long as they could leave the Land of God Punishment, they could use their information of the surrounding topography to hide safely. Or they could even lure their opponents into the most dangerous area of the forbidden lands.
We’ve been well-prepared!
Russell and the others had arranged everything several days ago. Seeing the others agree with the escape plan, they became excited, preparing to get out of the Land of God Punishment.
Shortly after, war chariots flew across the sky of the Heaven Punishment City like countless locusts swarming the place. It looked magnificent indeed.
Those war chariots were in different styles, colors, and shapes. The flags they had indicated their forces. They hovered neatly in the air. No battle. No quarrel. They seemed to be waiting for something.
The most ruthless and bloodthirsty pirates of the Heaven Punishment City soared up into the sky from different corners and alleys of the Heaven Punishment City. They aligned with the thick cloud of war chariots, checking their formation for the last mobilization before carrying out the operation.
Inside the city, Ao Gu Duo, Carthew, Li Yue Feng, and Bi Tian frowned as they looked at the commotion in the sky. They exchanged thoughts using Soul Consciousness.
Not long afterward, their teams started to head to the Headquarter of the Blue Demon Pirates as they had planned. After two hours, experts of the three forces appeared on the spacious street outside the Blue Demon’s base.
Many shops in the Heaven Punishment City were closed due to the dangerous situation of the city.
Warriors who didn’t belong to the three big forces came to the Heaven Punishment City to also trade their goods. However, the person was not showing his or her face.
The packed street in the past became isolated. They couldn’t even see a shadow.
Everybody realized that a big catastrophe would happen in the Heaven Punishment City shortly. People who didn’t want to get involved in this mess and get killed fled unknowingly all the away.
Carthew, Zi Yao, Yalan, Tie Mu and a dozen warriors under his commands arrived. However, they didn’t stand near Ao Gu Duo. They kept a distance from Ao Gu Duo as an independent force.
Seeing him come, Ao Gu Duo just frowned, saying nothing. Besides Ao Gera, his team also had more than ten warriors who had just arrived.
When Ao Gera saw Zi Yao, his blonde hair flew even though there was no wind. His eyes were cold too. He didn’t bend to greet her and turned away instead. He didn’t want to see her.
Although they were the forces of the Dark Firmament Divine Nation, Ao Gu Duo and Carthew didn’t join hands, let alone Bi Tian and Li Yue Feng. If they hadn’t known about the big operation of the pirates, they wouldn’t have gathered here.
Two days ago, the massive abyss where Leona disappeared had no dark aura anymore. It seemed that Leona had disappeared from the Land of God Punishment. No one was able to sense her soul energy fluctuation so no one could know whether she was still in the Land of God Punishment or not.
Not being able to see her made people uneasy and anxious. Since they all knew that Carthew and Leona were close, they weren’t so sure if they had contacted discreetly or not. Thus, after Carthew had arrived, Ao Gu Duo, Li Yue Feng, and Bi Tian had to frown, saying nothing.
You came on time. The pirates are going to leave the Land of God Punishment. What do you think?
Ao Gu Duo asked after pondering for a while.
I don’t know. Anyway, I won’t attack them inside the city. But if you guys want to attack after they’ve left the Heaven Punishment City, I have no objections.
Carthew smiled, his visage calm and natural. He acted as if he didn’t care about the star map.
What do you think?
Ao Gu Duo looked at Li Yue Feng and Bi Tian.
I’m sure that we can’t attack them in the Heaven Punishment City,
Li Yue Feng wore a ferocious and malignant face.
I mean, we’ll give them time to leave the city. Then, we will see if that hermit still wants us to stop. Then, we will discuss again. What do you think?
I have the same idea,
laughed Bi Tian.
That person in the city is too strong. I don’t want to enrage him. If he doesn’t interfere, those pirates can’t do anything.
Alright, we will let them leave the city. First, we will kill the pirates. Then, you guys should depend on your own competences!
Ao Gu Duo agreed immediately.
The powerful characters of the three big forces exchanged looks. They immediately agreed. They planned that after Feng Ke and his people had left the Heaven Punishment City, they would start to attack fiercely. After they were done with the pirates, they would compete against each other to get the star map.
As they had determined their plan, they didn’t talk more, scattering and discussing with their own people for a detailed plan.
Rumble Rumble Rumble!
After one hour, battleships and war chariots in the sky roared, rocketing through the atmosphere, heading to the star area outside the Land of God Punishment.
The clouds of battleships and chariots didn’t line up. It diverged into so many different paths. They scattered like schools of fishes swimming to different river branches. In outer space, they changed their direction, heading to different regions. The energy crystals triggered at once. They flashed like lightning strikes in the sky.
They seemed to know the plan of the three big forces, not wanting to give them a chance to catch them all at once. That’s why they decided to use this plan.
Indeed, seeing the pirates flee away was nice. Each flow included pirates, battleships and war chariots from different organizations, Ao Gu Duo’s team was perplexed. They didn’t know which flow they should pursue or which battleship or war chariot Feng Ke was hiding in.
Having no other option around, Ao Gu Duo, Carthew, Li Yue Feng, and Bi Tian could only diverge and chase after the pirates. They tried to sense the four strongest auras among the others.
For the time being, people saw lights shooting across the sky of the Land of God Punishment like the rainbows. They all zoomed to the horizon, tearing the dome of the high sky.
The war which would shake the entire Raging Flame Star Area slowly began at this moment.
And Shi Yan, he was still floating in the starry sea of outer space inside his blood pupa, waiting for the moment to emerge from his chrysalis.
