Chapter 446: Bandit Lair (1/2)

“I didn’t think that Nine Firmaments Palace and Star Assembly Sect would be so forceful. They dare to block even a Sacred-tier Skysoar Warship from Heavenly Origin Trade Association. Looks like they are very determined to capture us.” As a disciple of Heavenly Sword Faction from the Central Plains, Jian Xiaotian knew quite a bit about how strong the Heavenly Origin Trade Association was.

“Hopefully, the two sides will start fighting one another.” Chen Feng smiled.

“Humph! I didn’t think that the immortal dao sects from the Northern Plains could be so overbearing. You even dare stop the Sacred artefact of our Heavenly Origin Trade Association? I will be leaving now! I want to see who dares to obstruct my way. All who obstructs my way will die!” The insidious-looking man said, piloting the Skysoar Warship to charge forward.

Rumble! Rumble!

The insidious-looking man mobilized the might of the Skysoar Warship and energy streams surged about as it charged forward. Due to that, the scent of scorched air spread out.

If Chen Feng and Jian Xiaotian were not on board the Skysoar Warship, the insidious-looking man might have allowed them to inspect the ship. At any rate, Nine Firmaments Palace and Star Assembly Sect were not existences he could casually offend. Given the current circumstances, however, even if there were more of them, even if they were to threaten him, the insidious-looking man would not allow Chen Feng’s whereabouts to be exposed.

Thus, all he could do was to send the ship charging forward.

“No! Hurry, move aside!” Sensing the oppressive atmosphere radiating from the Sacred artefact, the faces of the cultivators from Nine Firmaments Palace and Star Assembly Sect sank. They dashed to the side as fast as they could. This was a Sacred artefact. Just one collision would certainly end with their deaths.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Although they were quick to dash to the side, the might of a Sacred artefact was simply too strong. The shockwaves caused by the Sacred artefact’s movement alone were enough to send them flying. Those few with lesser cultivation bases ended up spraying blood out from their mouths.

By the time the cultivators managed to band together once more, the Skysoar Warship could no longer be seen.

“Despicable! They dare look down on our Nine Firmaments Palace? Quick, notify this incident to the sect! Have the sect send out experts to capture them!”

“Senior brother, do you think Chen Feng is in the Skysoar Warship?”

“Regardless if criminal Chen Feng is inside the Skysoar Warship or not, we cannot let this matter slide!”

The cultivators from Nine Firmaments Palace and Star Assembly Sect were used to occupying exalted positions in their everyday lives. When had they ever experienced such a situation? Left in wretched-looking states, all of them were enraged. They wanted nothing more than to chase after the Skysoar Warship and kill everyone aboard.

After charging through the blockade, the Skysoar Warship began slowing down. Chen Feng and Jian Xiaotian had been able to observe everything that happened earlier.

“Brother Jian, if we are not on this Skysoar Warship, do you think they would have allowed the cultivators from Nine Firmaments Palace to inspect this ship?” Chen Feng asked with a grin.

Jian Xiaotian considered the matter for a moment before replying, “Probably not. At any rate, Heavenly Origin Trade Association is not to be casually offended. An ordinary flying-type magic treasure is probably nothing concerning. However, this is a Sacred artefact. A Sacred artefact of Heavenly Origin Trade Association getting stopped and searched? If news of this spreads out, Heavenly Origin Trade Association will suffer from a loss of reputation.”

“Heh! Not necessarily. Do not forget, we are not in the Central Plains. We are still in the Northern Plains. Additionally, we are in Star Assembly Sect’s territory. The way I see it, if we are not on this ship, Ling Long and the others would likely not do something so forceful.”

“Even though this is the Starsea Region, a place filled with dangers, I believe that the cultivators from Star Assembly Sect will be catching up to us soon enough,” Chen Feng said.

As Chen Feng and Jian Xiaotian were discussing the matter, Ling Long and the other four fellows were also gathered together to discuss the same matter.

“Looks like we’ll need to speed up. We have offended Nine Firmaments Palace and Star Assembly Sect. The consequences of doing so is very severe,” Ling Long said.

“Humph, what are you afraid of? This is Starsea Region. No matter how powerful they may be, they would still be incapable of controlling everything here. Besides, after we capture and hand Chen Feng over to Nine Firmaments Palace, they will be thanking us,” the bald muscleman said nonchalantly.

“It’s not that simple. I think we should hurry up and deal with them. Then, we’ll return and discuss this through,” the middle-aged scholar said.

“All right. If so, let’s speed up. Bring out your spirit stones.” The insidious-looking man made up his mind.

“Eh? It’s moving faster!” Chen Feng was slightly surprised.

“Its velocity is double that of its earlier velocity. Judging by its current velocity, we can cover at least 100,000 kilometres in one day. Just what are they planning? Or, are they fearful of Nine Firmaments Palace’s pursuit?” Jian Xiaotian guessed.

“Maybe then are planning on taking action soon. No worries. Let’s wait and see what happens next. We’ll just watch the show first.” Chen Feng grinned.

“We’ve reached the Starsea Region. We should head down!”

“We are here! Miss Ling Long, it’s time we head down!”

Five fellows walked out from various rooms. Like Chen Feng and Jian Xiaotian, they were swindled into boarding the Skysoar Warship. However, their destination was the Starsea Region.

They shouted a few times. However, there was no response. On the contrary, the Skysoar Warship went even faster.

“What is going on here?”

“Things are not looking good!”

“What are you afraid of? There are so many of us here. Come, I know where that Ling Long chick is hiding at!”

The five cultivators continued chatting as they moved towards Ling Long. However, they had not made it too far ahead before their surroundings abruptly transformed. Smoke swirled about, ropes flew all around and flying needles shot out silently towards the five of them. Clearly, those were attacks from a magic array.

“As expected, there is something wrong. Attack!”
