Chapter 1295: Ye Zhangqing Injured

~7 min read 1,338 words

Originally, they were in the midst of a fierce battle, but their own star battleship was suddenly stolen.

Seeing this, the space pirates were dumbfounded, burning with rage, simply hateful.

They had spent a lifetime looting things, yet now they themselves were being robbed?

You damn bastards, you don't even let bandits off?

Moreover, who the hell steals an enemy's star battleship in the middle of a war? It's utterly despicable and shameless.

They had never encountered such a situation before, so the space pirates had absolutely no preparation for it.

Even though they were burning with rage now, they could only watch helplessly as their own star battleship drifted farther and farther away.

You have to know, for space pirates, a star battleship is not just a warship; it's more like their home.

Space pirates drift year-round through the myriad worlds, looting wherever they go.

Basically, they have no real foothold; they live year-round on their battleships.

So, to say who has the deepest affection for the star battleship, it undoubtedly belongs to these space pirates.

That is their "home," but now, in the midst of fighting, damn it, their home is gone.

Many of the space pirates had red eyes, their voices trembling with a hint of a sob.

"Stop, please stop."

"Return my star battleship."

"You brat, how dare you, bullying others to an extreme, bullying to an extreme!"

They kept shouting angrily, but it was utterly useless; the star battleship went farther and farther, and the space pirates could only watch helplessly.

After playing with an eagle all their lives, they ended up having their eyes pecked by the eagle—what kind of thing is this?

Moreover, with the star battleship gone, it means they now have no chance to escape.

Without a star battleship, they simply cannot traverse the spatial passage to leave Haotu Shijie.

Put bluntly, they are now trapped to death in Haotu Shijie.

With no retreat and no home, under the weight of new grudges and old hatreds, these space pirates have become utterly ruthless.

Since death is inevitable either way, damn it, let's all die together.

Space pirates all have a bandit aura; otherwise they couldn't be space pirates.

Those who are timid and fear death cannot become space pirates.

The space pirates, having gone berserk, launched ever more fierce attacks, and for a time they actually fought back and forth with the Haotu Shijie side.

"These guys are really a bunch of desperadoes."

"No need to clash head-on with them; after all, they're all a bunch of people about to die."

Facing these space pirates' desperate fighting, the Haotu Shijie side actually had no intention of meeting them head-on.

Without their star battleship, this gang of space pirates is like a turtle in a jar—sooner or later they'll be captured.

At this point there's no need to clash head-on with them; steady and stable is the best choice.

Haotu Shijie chose to temporarily avoid the sharp edge, letting this gang of space pirates strut a bit.

Precisely because of that, for a moment it seemed on the battlefield that this gang of space pirates held the upper hand, gradually gaining an advantage.

However, all this is merely superficial; Haotu Shijie appears weak, but in fact casualties are not large.

It is precisely because they do not want heavy casualties that the situation has turned out this way.

Ye Zhangqing was also on the battlefield at this time; he originally came just out of curiosity to watch the excitement.

But who would have known he would run into this gang of space pirates.

However, he had nothing to fear; previously Ye Zhangqing had slain several space pirates, which caught the attention of a space pirate who had reached Perfection of the Great Saint Realm.

This person directly attacked Ye Zhangqing.

"At such a young age to have such cultivation, a heavenly pride—indeed, I didn't expect that in such a sealed-off world, someone like you, a heavenly pride, could be born."

This Great Saint Realm space pirate looked at Ye Zhangqing with killing intent.

From the combat power Ye Zhangqing displayed when he slew those few space pirates just now, he is unquestionably among the top prodigies.

Even placed in Haotu Shijie, he would count as a notable figure of one side.

Moreover, despite the gap in cultivation between them, Ye Zhangqing actually managed to remain undefeated and trade blows evenly with him, which made this Great Saint Realm space pirate wary in his heart.

Upon hearing the words of that Great Saint Realm space pirate, Ye Zhangqing did not reply; what's the point of saying these things now?

He swung the kitchen knife in his hand, the blade's light shooting straight at the Great Saint Realm space pirate; facing Ye Zhangqing's attack, that space pirate dared not meet it head-on and could only dodge sideways.

This kid is weird, using a kitchen knife as a weapon—who normal person uses a kitchen knife as a weapon?

Moreover, the grade of this kitchen knife is not low; it is obviously specially made.

But you have this skill; even if you made a short blade, that would be fine.

Swords, spears, blades, hammers—there are so many weapon styles to choose from; you could even make a pair of gauntlets.

But instead you went and made a kitchen knife.............

However, after exchanging blows, this Great Saint Realm space pirate dared not look down on the kitchen knife in Ye Zhangqing's hand.

Looking at it, it's strange and bizarre, yet its power is not weak at all; those blade lights practically make his scalp go numb.

Relying on himself, he basically couldn't defeat Ye Zhangqing; at best they were evenly matched.

This is the combat power of a top prodigy; in the myriad worlds, there isn't a single top prodigy that's easy to deal with.

Any top prodigy's methods can be said to be endless, completely beyond ordinary reasoning.

And Ye Zhangqing is the same; although born in a sealed-off world, compared to those top prodigies of the myriad worlds, he is in no way inferior.

He barely managed to dodge Ye Zhangqing's strike, but Ye Zhangqing gave him no chance to catch his breath, directly lunging forward and slashing out another blade.

In response, that Great Saint Realm space pirate could only raise his blade to block, and the two immediately launched into fierce combat.

In the fierce battle, that Great Saint Realm space pirate gained no advantage, but as they fought, he caught sight of Ye Zhangqing's rear and a cold smile flashed in his eyes.

At some point, another Space Pirate of the Great Saint Realm appeared behind Ye Zhangqing.

Although he was injured, the wounds were not serious; most importantly, this Space Pirate's concealment skills were absolutely superb.

Not a trace of his aura leaked out.

This is what Space Pirates are like—all kinds of heretical ways exist; among them you can meet people skilled in all sorts of means, a veritable mix of dragons and fish.

Concealing himself silently, he appeared behind Ye Zhangqing; while Ye Zhangqing and this Great Saint Realm Space Pirate were fiercely fighting, this Space Pirate thrust his dagger straight at Ye Zhangqing's back.

An icy cold flash came like lightning; Ye Zhangqing started; he thought, 'Not good.'

But by then it was too late to dodge or defend.

He could only do his best, forcibly shifting his body slightly to avoid the vital spot.

But the dagger still viciously pierced Ye Zhangqing's back.

In an instant, blood spurted, the entire dagger plunged into Ye Zhangqing's body.

Seeing that he couldn't kill with one blow, the Space Pirate immediately tried to withdraw, but Ye Zhangqing gave him no chance.

He didn't even tend to his own wounds, his gaze icy as he looked at the Space Pirate, his eyes full of killing intent.

He swung down a blade, straight at the Space Pirate, who was so frightened he didn't even think of his dagger, hastily dodging.
