Chapter 1027
byOutside the palace, Shentu said with an apologetic expression on his face, “Brother Yang, I can only send you here. My identity is too sensitive. If I really send you away, I will definitely be targeted by those with ulterior motives. Take care all the way.”
“Blood Pupil will go with you and explain everything to you on the way to take care of your safety.” Jialong beckoned to the side, and the monster race warrior who had taken Yang Kai to buy the star shuttle and ores before walked up and grinned at Yang Kai, “Young Master Yang.”
“Thank you for your trouble.” He knew that this was Shentu’s good intention, so he didn’t refuse.
“Brother Yang, see you later!” Shentu solemnly cupped his fists.
Yang Kai returned the salute, and under the leadership of that Blood Pupil, the two of them controlled the star shuttle and flew forward at high speed.
The warships of Shuiyue Star are basically used to transport materials. The major forces in the star field place various orders with the Hengluo Chamber of Commerce through their branches stationed on Shuiyue Star to order some cultivation materials. After the chamber of commerce prepares them properly, it will transport the materials to the main stars of those forces for handover within the specified time through the warships.
On the way, according to the explanation of Blood Pupil, Yang Kai understood that the warship that the two of them were about to take this time was going to a star called Feicui Star. Feicui Star was the main star of a force called Lieyan. This force was not very strong, but not weak either. It could be ranked medium in the entire star field and had two cultivation stars in its hands. Feicui Star was one of them.
The total sailing time will probably be about half a year, and it will pass through the cultivation stars of some other forces on the way.
“Young Master Yang, you can choose to stop at which cultivation star according to your own intention, or you can directly follow the warship to Jadeite Star.” Blood Pupil explained.
“Understood, I’ll see for myself at that time.” Yang Kai nodded.
Following Blood Pupil, they flew carefully all the way. After making a transfer in the space magic array used before, they came to another city and entered an area tightly surrounded by martial artists.
That was a huge square, so vast that it couldn’t be seen at the end. On that square, there were warships of all sizes parked one after another, and countless martial artists were busy here, carrying supplies in an orderly manner.
The boxes of supplies exuded a strong energy fluctuation, and many of them were extremely high-grade things.
Blood Pupil led Yang Kai here, and Yang Kai looked around, secretly shocked by the wealth owned by the Heng Luo Chamber of Commerce.
Just these dozens of warships of all sizes were an amazing capital, not to mention the supplies full in the warships and these countless martial artists.
The big forces are really big forces!
Before the two had walked far, several Saint King Realm martial artists came up in front of them. They revealed a clear killing intent on their bodies and looked at Blood Pupil and Yang Kai vigilantly. One of them raised his hand and shouted in a low voice, “Stop!”
Xue Tong stopped, his expression not showing the slightest bit of panic. He took out a token from his spatial ring and handed it over.
The martial artist took it, carefully examined it for a while, nodded slightly, didn’t ask any more questions, and waved his hand to signal Xue Tong and Yang Kai to go in quickly.
“Young Master Shen Tu has taken care of everything. We will leave together with an adult he knows.” Xue Tong said in a low voice.
Shuttling through the battleship square. Not long after, Xue Tong’s eyes lit up and he pointed to the front.
Over there, there was a Saint King-class top-grade battleship quietly moored. The hatch of the battleship was wide open, and many martial artists were carrying supplies into it. Outside the battleship, there was a big and burly man with his hands behind his back standing there. A pair of hawk-like eyes shone with bright divine light, and his expression was awe-inspiring without anger.
All the people carrying supplies couldn’t help but stay away from him, looking afraid of him.
When Xue Tong and Yang Kai walked over, his gaze instantly fixed on them. Yang Kai couldn’t help but frown. He felt a stabbing pain all over his body as if he was pricked by a needle.
“Lord Xin Rui!” Xue Tong stepped forward and gently cupped his fists.
“Is this him?” The big man called Xin Rui looked Yang Kai up and down, snorted, and said, “Young Master Shen Tu wants me to take him away?”
“Yes!” Xue Tong nodded in response.
“He is not from the Chamber of Commerce?” Xin Rui looked at him.
Blood Pupil shook his head: “He is Young Master Shen Tu’s friend.”
“Oh?” Xin Rui’s eyes showed a strange light. “Shen Tu actually has a friend? This is really a rare sight. It’s okay to take him away, but you remember, he can’t act recklessly on my battleship. Honestly abide by the rules, otherwise I will throw him in the star field and let him fend for himself.”
“Don’t worry, Young Master’s friend won’t cause trouble.” Blood Pupil smiled and didn’t care about his threat.
Xin Rui curled his lip: “If he didn’t cause trouble, why would Shen Tu be in such a hurry to arrange for him to leave? Just looking at him, he doesn’t look like an honest and well-behaved person!
He looked at Yang Kai meaningfully, as if he had seen something, but didn’t ask any more questions. He just snorted: “Go in!”
“Thank you!” Blood Pupil smiled, waved to Yang Kai, and led him into the battleship.
Inside the battleship, there were many martial artists running around, and everyone was extremely busy.
Blood Pupil ignored everything and kept shuttling in the corridor with Yang Kai. They found two adjacent rooms on their own and lived in them.
“If Young Master Yang is not satisfied with this room, I can help you change to another one.” Blood Pupil asked for Yang Kai’s opinion.
Yang Kai stood by the window, looking at the scenery outside through the transparent window, and shook his head: “No need. The view here is wide. I can look at the scenery when I’m bored. It’s very good.”
“As long as you’re satisfied.”
“That Xin Rui… What’s his relationship with Shen Tu? Why would he help Shen Tu?” Yang Kai opened his mouth and asked.
“Lord Xin Rui…” Blood Pupil thought for a while and replied, “He should be Young Master Shen Tu’s uncle…”
“Uncle?” Yang Kai was surprised.
“Yes.” Blood Pupil smiled, “Lord Xin Rui’s younger sister is exactly Young Master Shen Tu’s mother. The president and Lord Xin Rui’s younger sister knew each other many years ago, but in the end, because of various reasons, the two couldn’t be together.”
“Forget it, no need to explain. It must be another messy account!” Yang Kai waved his hand.
Blood Pupil also smiled bitterly and said, “Yes, a messy account that can’t be sorted out. If Young Master Yang has no other orders, I’ll go and rest first. In another hour, this warship should set sail!”
“Go!”
Blood Pupil immediately took his leave.
Yang Kai stood by the window, looking at the surging crowd below, his heart was fluctuating. Once again, he suddenly had a feeling of loneliness and desolation.
The star field is extremely large, seemingly endless. And here, he is just an outsider, without a single relative or friend, without familiar things, and everywhere exudes a strange feeling.
Everything here seems to be very far away from him. He is alone here, struggling. Subconsciously, he thought of the warmth of his senior apprentice-sister, thought of Su Yan’s tenderness, and even thought of the charming Queen Shan Qingluo and Qiu Yimeng.
One familiar face after another flashed through his mind, making his always-strong heart suddenly soften.
I wonder if they are still happy and healthy now? I wonder if they have encountered any difficulties? I wonder if they are also missing him…
Yang Kai’s thoughts raced like a shuttle, and he suddenly felt a bit sour.
However, when a figure appeared in his eyes, all his thoughts and sadness were disrupted. His eyelids couldn’t help but shrink, and his face darkened.
In that huge square, a group of three people was walking towards this side. The leading young man was extremely handsome, with fair skin that any woman would envy and marvel at. His black hair was scattered on his shoulders, looking romantic and unrestrained. A warm and gentle smile was hanging on his face, making people feel like basking in the spring breeze.
Wherever he passed, those female warriors who were to move supplies stopped their movements one after another and all looked at him.
He was actually walking towards the direction of this battleship!
Xueyue!
Yang Kai quickly left the window, directly rushed out of his room, and came to the next door. He casually closed the door.
Blood Pupil seemed to be meditating and cultivating on the bed. Seeing Yang Kai suddenly arrive, he couldn’t help but be a little stunned: “Young Master Yang, is there any other command?
Yang Kai stared at him deeply and lowered his voice: “Tell me honestly, did Shen Tu sell me out?”
The confusion on Blood Pupil’s face became even thicker, and he frowned and said, “What do you mean by that, Young Master Yang?”
“Look outside for yourself!” Yang Kai snorted coldly.
Blood Pupil stood up, stared out of the window, and his pupils couldn’t help but shrink. He shouted in a low voice, “Young Master Xue Yue? Why is he here?”
“You ask me, who should I ask?” Yang Kai sneered. “Did Shen Tu inform her of something?”
Blood Pupil’s expression was serious. “If you think like this, Young Master Yang, you are looking down on Young Master Shen Tu too much. He truly regards you as a friend. How could he betray you? Moreover, Young Master Xue Yue should have left Shuiyue Star yesterday. It is precisely because of this that Young Master Shen Tu chose to arrange for you to leave today.”
“Left yesterday?” Yang Kai furrowed his brows, and his eyes stared closely at Blood Pupil, not missing any slightest change in his expression.
“Yes, Young Master Xue Yue had a mission and should have left yesterday.” Blood Pupil nodded heavily. “And there were also people who saw him board another warship and leave Shuiyue Star!”
“Then why is he here? And it’s such a coincidence that he found this warship?” Yang Kai shouted in a low voice.
Blood Pupil couldn’t help but smile wryly. “I don’t know about this either… But Young Master Yang, Young Master Shen Tu has definitely never betrayed you. He wouldn’t do such a thing.”
Yang Kai stared closely at him for a long time before shouting sharply, “Fine, I’ll believe you! Can we go down now?”
“That’s too risky. Maybe he’ll run into us.” Blood Pupil quickly waved his hand. “If Young Master Xueyue really wants to take this warship, you’d better stay here all the time and never let him find out. I hope he just came here to talk to Lord Xinrui…”
“I’m afraid this hope is probably impossible.” Yang Kai slowly shook his head and listened intently. Blood Pupil’s and his rooms were not far above the hatch, so even without operating his strength, he could hear some conversations. From the dialogue between him and Xinrui, Yang Kai knew that he was indeed staring at this warship and would also take this warship like himself.
Yang Kai’s mood suddenly became extremely bad.
