Chapter 434: Young Master Me, I Have No Father!

Alright, I'll give it a try.

Zhang Jie ultimately chose to agree; the opportunity was rare, and if he wanted to advance further he had to seize every chance he could.

However, this path was surely extremely difficult, as he had absolutely no foundation in Space Folding Technology.

So, is there any basic knowledge about space? At least let me stand on the shoulders of those who came before.

Don't worry, there definitely is.

Zhang Jie and that old man thus began a pleasant exchange, while Xiao Jiu pursed her lips and silently watched Zhang Jie.

Do humans really like those so-called catgirls?

Tch! Catgirls aren't nearly as cute as Xiao Jiu!

Xiao Jiu idly thought like that, her mind gradually drifting away.

But suddenly, she seemed to sense something; her wandering thoughts instantly snapped back, and she willingly arrived, as another existence like her came to this planet.

Xiao Jiu's bodily sensing range is not far; it cannot cover the whole planet, only up to about half the planet's size.

So, being able to sense it now means that this Ship Life is already very close to her.

Just as Xiao Jiu wondered what this Ship Life was here for, it suddenly shot toward her direction at a speed she couldn't possibly react to.

Human! Little....

Boom!

Before the last word was even finished, that Ship Life slammed into the area like a big truck; Xiao Jiu felt her body like a small boat tossed on waves, rolling with the shockwave until it finally came to rest in a cloud of dust.

When the smoke cleared, Xiao Jiu stumbled up dazedly, and as soon as she opened her eyes she saw a sight that made her liver and gallbladder feel torn apart.

All that could be seen was a strong man in uniform grabbing Zhang Jie with one hand and lifting him up.

Beside the two of them stood a man with a cold expression.

Who are you!

Xiao Jiu bared her teeth, clenched her fists, and charged at the strong man; in the next instant she shot forward like a cannonball.

She is indeed stubborn, but that doesn't mean only she is stubborn—every Ship Life is stubborn.

She, Xiao Jiu, is merely the most ordinary, even weakest among them, and has never been an existence like Zhang Jie.

Xiao Jiu still wouldn't give up, charging over and over like an indestructible cockroach, while that Ship Life seemed tired of her rushes, raised a hand, and a powerful magnetic field pressed her so she couldn't move.

Let go of me! Let me go!!!

Ignoring Xiao Jiu's roar, the cold‑looking man beside her merely glanced coolly at Zhang Jie, his up‑and‑down stare making Zhang Jie instinctively feel uneasy.

Are you Zhang Jie?

You look pretty decently human.

You.... who are you?

The man snorted contemptuously; he wouldn't tell Zhang Jie his identity, lest he get entangled with his older sister.

I ask you, where is your biological father?

Zhang Jie:?

Does he have a father?

Seems like he doesn't have one?

What?

Seeing Zhang Jie's doubtful expression, the man narrowed his eyes suspiciously and repeated the question, yet Zhang Jie's look remained blank.

Nevertheless, being held like that, with Xiao Jiu pinned nearby unable to move, even the densest Zhang Jie realized something was wrong.

What are you muttering about! This young master has no father!

His size‑48 foot slammed into the man's face, but Zhang Jie only felt as if he'd kicked a steel plate; his full‑force kick did no damage at all.

A thin Position Shield had appeared sometime, or perhaps was never turned off; although the kick didn't hurt him much, the man still felt humiliated.

Kid, you're already asking for death.......

Bang!

A hollow steel pipe followed Zhang Jie's size‑48 kick and struck the back of his head again, producing a lingering echo.

The man gritted his teeth, his face darkening as he turned back, only to see an old man awkwardly holding the steel pipe and giving him a sheepish greeting.

I am... you really don't know death!

Ship Life 250! Don't you know how to protect your master!

One hand holding Zhang Jie, the Ship Life's skin was somewhat dark; though it looked burly, it also gave off a simple‑minded vibe, truly befitting its 250 designation....

Report, Driver Sir, I did not detect any threat to your life.

Indeed, for a man with a Position Shield, such a physical attack would only be strange if it actually hurt him.

But Zhang Jie didn't care about that; he quickly pulled out a delicate hand cannon from his pocket, aimed at the nearby Ship Life 250, and pulled the trigger.

The massive figure before him was blasted away, Zhang Jie landed stylishly, and the now‑unbound Xiao Jiu hurriedly got up, shielding Zhang Jie behind her.

You....

Forget it, if it weren't for my older sister's sake....

At worst I'll go look myself.

The man showed no fear, gave Zhang Jie a deep look, then turned and left; his arrival and departure were both utterly baffling, leaving Zhang Jie completely confused.

Who is he?

He might be from the Iron Law Star Alliance.

Xiao Jiu watched the Ship Life crawling out of the ruins, her whole body tense, not daring to relax in the slightest.

Did you see that Ship Life's insignia? That ship belongs to the Iron Law Star Alliance.

Zhang Jie, lost in thought, casually ruffled Xiao Jiu's dog head, and the Position Shield piqued his interest.

Maybe we should try researching something fun.

On the other side, the man had already returned to the ship; right now his face was full of gloom.

"What the hell! Nothing? Didn't find it?"

"You say a life with only a mother and no father was born on a garbage star, and you think I'm 250?"

"Driver Mister, I'm me, you're you, I'm 250, you're not 250."

"Get lost!!!"

The silly 250 Ship Life scratched his head; that was his setting, and looking at the man's ever darker face, he really didn't dare say anything.

"Sir, I already said it; maybe just tell that person."

"Shut up! I don't believe it! He's just an organic lifeform; take his genes and check them for me!"

Having suffered such humiliation, he wished he could directly turn 250 into a warship and then blast this crappy little planet to pieces with one shot.

Now he dare not go too far, for secrets cannot stay hidden; sooner or later his little sister will find out, and before that he must try his utmost to find the person who defiled his little sister.

"......."

"By the way, sir, is it possible that he was adopted?"

"....?"

"....."

"Damn, why didn't you say so earlier!!!"
