Chapter 1293

Haotu Shijie's side is already on high alert; no matter who it is, as soon as they appear, we will seize them directly.

"Yun Dao brother, doing this might be a bit rash; if the opponent's strength........."

Dongfang Hong said with some concern, "If we don't say this and just attack, then if the opponent's strength is greater than ours, what do we do?"

In response, Yun Xiantai said in a deep voice.

"If the opponent is stronger than us, then we must strike first all the more; otherwise we would have no power to resist, would we not be at their mercy?"

"Only by striking first before the opponent reacts, seizing them, do we have a chance."

"As for whether the opponent is friend or foe, we can discuss that later."

Yun Xiantai acted out of concern for Haotu Shijie's safety; after all, who knows what the intruder's intentions are when they suddenly barge in?

If they are like the demon clan, coming to attack Haotu Shijie, then we should strike them even more unexpectedly.

Moreover, looking up at the Heavenly Thunder above, with the aid of the Heavenly Dao's will, it also becomes easier.

At this moment, everyone is directly beneath the Heavenly Thunder, yet the thunder shows no intention of attacking them.

This indicates that these Heavenly Thunder are aimed at those outsiders.

We have already ordered people to begin preparing traps; once those outsiders appear, we will seize them directly.

While Haotu Shijie's side was making preparations, inside the spatial passage a Star Battleship was speeding along.

Just like the Dongfang Family's Star Battleship, it too has reached Emperor-level.

At this moment, on this Star Battleship, a group of fierce-looking men were busy working on the ship.

At first glance they are no good, their bandit aura is very strong.

These people are indeed no good; in Zhu Tian Wan Jie they are known as Space Pirates, making a living by raiding homes.

Zhu Tian Wan Jie is vast, composed of countless worlds.

Between the many worlds, there naturally is constant traffic.

For example, some worlds' unique treasures, when taken to another world, can instantly increase in price several-fold or even tenfold.

Thus, within Zhu Tian Wan Jie many merchant guilds engage in such business.

And the Space Pirates specialize in robbing the merchant ships that travel between those merchant guilds.

The Space Pirates are numerous in number, with varying strength; the weak ones have only a dozen or so people, utterly a rabble.

The strong ones even have an Emperor Sovereign Realm expert holding the fort.

And this band of Space Pirates that has forcibly invaded Haotu Shijie at this moment also has an Emperor Sovereign Realm expert holding the fort.

Inside the cabin, a burly one-eyed man sat firmly in a grand chair.

His visage was hideous, scars covering his whole body; at a glance he is a vicious person.

"Boss, does this sealed world really have a supreme elixir born? We went to great effort to open this spatial passage."

"How could I be mistaken? It is definitely an Emperor Sovereign Realm–level supreme elixir; I just didn't expect that a sealed world could still give birth to such a treasure."

"But this world's strength........."

"What's there to worry about? A sealed world like this could possibly have an Emperor Sovereign Realm expert?"

These Space Pirates originally sensed the birth of the supreme elixir, which is why they hurriedly and forcibly intruded into Haotu Shijie.

As for Haotu Shijie's strength, the one-eyed burly man is completely unconcerned; it's just a sealed world, after all.

Having never even contacted Zhu Tian Wan Jie, how strong could its strength possibly be?

This gang of theirs has roamed south and north, plundering places numbering not a hundred but eighty.

In the past, those sealed worlds—none of them failed to be subdued obediently by him.

As soon as the Emperor Sovereign Realm aura erupts, those people are instantly dumbfounded; after countless successes, the one-eyed burly man's confidence has long been through the roof, and he fundamentally looks down on these sealed worlds.

Sealed worlds are generally weak in strength, a fact everyone acknowledges.

Yet this one-eyed burly man obviously hasn't realized that Haotu Shijie can be judged by ordinary reasoning?

A sealed world—the demon clan expended such great effort yet failed to take it, not to mention suffering heavy losses.

Although this group's strength is not bad, compared to the demon clan they still fall short.

The Star Battleship sped swiftly, and the many Space Pirates had already made their preparations.

They have done this sort of thing before; it's not their first time.

After seizing a world, they burn, kill, and loot without restraint; encountering resistance means killing.

Once they've looted enough, they simply pat their backsides and leave; as for what happens afterward, it's none of their concern.

So this time they also assumed it would be just like usual, and perhaps the haul would be even greater.

Because the chief said this world had just given birth to a supreme elixir of Emperor Sovereign Realm level.

With a supreme elixir, their strength could increase considerably; even if they don't use it themselves, a single Emperor Sovereign Realm–level elixir commands a heavenly price, enough to let them make a bloody fortune.

As the Star Battleship drew ever closer to Haotu Shijie, when a faint point of light appeared ahead, the one-eyed burly man rose, raised his arms, and shouted.

"Brothers, cheer up and seize this world!"

"Whooo.........."

Hearing this, the Space Pirates all shouted in agreement, their eyes filled with bloodthirsty light.

It is clear that these people's hands are surely stained with much blood.

The Star Battleship drew ever nearer, and in the next second it burst straight out of the spatial passage.

He had plenty of experience; the one-eyed burly man didn't even bother to notice the surrounding circumstances, environment, or the scenery of this world.

Anyway, there will be plenty of time for that later; according to past experience, at this moment the exit of the spatial passage should be gathered with many cultivators of this world.

They will surely be curious, not knowing what this is, after all they have never had contact with Zhu Tian Wan Jie.

And they usually act while the opponent is still unclear about the situation, striking first and giving them no chance to react.

Moreover, regarding this world's Heavenly Dao's will and the Heavenly Thunder, they also have a way to deal with it.

「Brothers, give me.................. 」

So without the slightest hesitation, the one-eyed burly man roared directly, and the many Space Pirates below had already been ready.

But before the one-eyed burly man's voice even fell, an even shorter angry shout came.

"Attack!"

Huh???

As soon as these words were spoken, the one-eyed burly man was stunned—Attack? What attack? Who was just speaking?

But they didn't give him any time to think; in the next second, countless attacks from all directions had already come.

Before this group of Space Pirates could act, the Haotu Shijie side had already taken the initiative.

Originally, it should have been the Haotu Shijie side that was dumbfounded, but now it turned out that this group of Space Pirates was dumbfounded.

No way, isn't this a closed-off world? You haven't even touched the Zhu Tian Wan Jie, so shouldn't you be curious about this sudden spatial rift?

Shouldn't we first clarify the situation before acting? What does it mean to just go ahead and attack like this?

Or is this world itself just a bandit's den? No matter who you are, loot first, talk later.

Judging by their methods, they seem very much like those Space Pirates—could we have really stumbled into a bandit's den? Is the whole world full of bandits?
