Chapter 1319: The Opportunity Has Arrived

~7 min read 1,217 words

They had already prepared to reluctantly give it up, and had taken the space ring off and held it in hand.

But the space pirates didn't even look at them, simply blankly rushing past.

Hmm???

For a moment, several people were dumbfounded—no, are these space pirates blind?

We're several big people standing right here—can't you see us?

The space pirates naturally saw them, but they didn't care; right now, all they saw was this star beast.

This is ingredients—we need to take it down first, right?

The few who had been dazed, in the next second, saw the space pirates directly attack that star beast.

This left several people even more stunned—what's going on now?

They looked at each other, seeing confusion in each other's eyes.

The space pirates attacked the star beast? Instead, they ignored them.

What does this mean—are they supposed to save them?

Space pirates saving people? That's absurd.

The leader, a Great Saint Realm powerhouse who had lived many years, had never encountered anything like this.

They're space pirates—how could they save people?

Full of confusion, but just then the leader already took out that star beast with a shot.

The space pirates under him also spontaneously began clearing the star beast's corpse.

With the previous experience, the space pirates' movements became much more adept.

This again left several people bewildered—after killing the star beast, what do you want its corpse for?

The star beast has nothing valuable on it—just junk nobody wants; why would a bunch of space pirates bother with its corpse?

Finding the space pirates' series of actions completely incomprehensible, who could tell them what these guys were actually up to?

Dazedly watching this group, they didn't snap out of it until the leader brought his people up to them.

"That................."

They had been thinking to thank them, after all the pirates had slain the star beast and helped them.

Even if they could have handled the star beast themselves, the fact remained that the pirates had helped them.

But before the leader, a Great Saint, could speak, the chief directly said.

"Cut the nonsense, baby, hand over the spirit stones."

Hmm???

The words of thanks rose to their lips, but they couldn't utter a sound.

The simple-minded one stared at the chief for a long time, and the leader, a Great Saint, instinctively said.

"You want to rob me?"

Hearing that, the chief frowned and retorted angrily.

"Nonsense, we're space pirates—if we don't rob you, should we invite you for tea?"

Hmm???

You damn well know you're space pirates—from the moment you showed up to now, which of your actions resembles what space pirates should do?

Feeling an indescribable complexity inside, yet facing the space pirates ahead, the leader, a Great Saint, eventually compromised.

No choice—they are of Great Emperor cultivation.

Although they didn't understand why the space pirates always felt strange, when handing over the space ring and such, the leader, a Great Saint, still felt a familiar sensation.

At last, this makes sense—you're space pirates, you should be killing and looting.

It made us think you wanted to save people—but why do you want the star beast's corpse?

That familiar feeling when facing space pirates returned.

Only after the Viper gang left did these few dare to whisper.

"What do these space pirates mean?"

"Yeah, why are they so obsessed with the star beast? I can't figure it out."

"But the robbery is genuine, and it feels right."

"I still feel it's weird."

"Never mind, everything's been looted—what's the point of saying this now?"

"This is the first time we've encountered such weird space pirates."

Several people were left bewildered by the Viper gang, but at this moment the Viper gang was excited beyond measure.

The ingredients are replenished—tonight we get to eat star beast ingredients again.

The Viper urged Ye Zhangqing to process the ingredients right away.

"Zhangqing, you've worked hard—hurry up and process the star beast ingredients."

"Got it, boss."

Ye Zhangqing brought Li Tie Niu, Li Tie Dan and the two brothers, plus the two spirit chefs, and quickly began processing the star beast ingredients.

That night, everyone again got to eat the longed-for star beast ingredients.

The space pirates were thoroughly satisfied—nothing beats star beast ingredients.

Having grown accustomed to star beast ingredients, eating anything else—demon beasts, spirit beasts—just doesn't hit the spot.

Although they're tasty, compared to star beast ingredients they always lack something.

The Viper couldn't help but drink two extra cups tonight, and Ye Zhangqing kept him company.

The Viper is growing ever fonder of Ye Zhangqing.

Zhangqing ah, just follow me well; I'll give you everything you had before, and I'll give you what you didn't have; as long as you follow me well, rest assured, I won't let you lose out.

Yes.

Hearing this, Ye Zhangqing naturally nodded and agreed.

But in his heart he felt contempt; what's the point of following you? Becoming a Space Pirate? What a pointless future.

All day he just drifted aimlessly in the Wújìn Xīnghǎi, without a fixed abode, not even a place to settle.

Ye Zhangqing naturally couldn't always follow Viper; the time just hasn't come yet.

Over the next half month, Viper's gang again slew several star beasts for food; at this time, behind the Star Battleship, a string of fresh ingredients was being dragged.

Those passing Xingkong Ships, seeing this, were all bewildered, not knowing what it meant.

Nowadays, is it fashionable to drag a few star beast corpses behind the Star Battleship?

Just seeing that the other party were Space Pirates, they didn't dare ask more, dare not approach, and fled in a puff of smoke.

Afraid that if they ran slow they'd be robbed.

In that half month, the many Space Pirates ate until their brains were full and their intestines fat.

And that day, Viper told everyone he was preparing to go to the nearby Tianwu Realm to rest.

The Space Pirates naturally had no objections; they'd also been on the Star Battleship for so long, it was time to find a place to relax.

And the Tianwu Realm was a good choice.

How to put it? In the Tianwu Realm, things are relatively chaotic, with no true hegemon; the major powers fight each other fiercely.

Naturally, they also had no energy to pay much attention to these foreign Space Pirates.

Even some powers would offer big money, requesting the Space Pirates' help.

This wasn't unfamiliar to the Space Pirates; as long as you pay, they can do anything, as long as the price is right.

Having been a Space Pirate for so many years, Viper naturally knew what the attitudes of the various worlds within Zhu Tian Wan Jie were toward Space Pirates.

Like the Tianwu Realm, which is relatively friendly to Space Pirates, or rather a chaotic world, is exactly the kind of world they like best.

Hearing Viper's words, Ye Zhangqing showed no expression, but in his heart he began to calculate.

The time had come; this was the opportunity he had been waiting for; he had already started planning in his heart how to escape once he reached the Tianwu Realm.

In the Wújìn Xīnghǎi there was no chance, but once he entered the Tianwu Realm, Ye Zhangqing would have a chance.
