In the territory of the barbarian star race.
“Why not go back?” Dong Baiying suggested.
“No, Yichun’s information wasn’t clear. I must ask her directly!” Zero insisted, pushing past the barbarian star race warriors blocking his way.
There was nothing unclear about it.
It was just that Jiang Yichun didn’t want to outright reject him, so she used
polite words.
Dong Baiying thought to himself.
His gaze shifted to a distant, alluring figure. Dong Baiying stepped aside.
“Yichun!” Zero’s eyes lit up as he waved.
Jiang Yichun exchanged a few words with the barbarian star race warriors, then approached. There was a hint of helplessness on her sweet face. “Zero, why are you here?”
“I came to find you!” Zero smiled warmly. “We need you, Yichun. Come and help me!”
“That’s not following protocol, Zero.” Jiang Yichun politely declined. “Let’s stick to the mission teams for now. We can discuss it after completing this mission.”
“It’s okay, Yichun.” Zero persisted. “You don’t fit in with Wang Ye’s team anyway. Why not join me for a big fight? Remember, we’re the best partners!” “No, Zero.” Jiang Yichun shook her head. “I’m happy with Xiao Qi, Qjng Yu, and the others. They’re all good people. Wang Ye is a great captain who takes care of me. I feel comfortable and happy with him.”
“But we…” Zero was still unwilling to give up.
“That’s enough, Zero.” Jiang Yichun interrupted politely. “I’ll head back first.
Let’s talk after the mission is over. I don’t want them to misunderstand.
With that, she left without looking back.
Zero stood alone, at a loss for words.
After a moment.
“D*mn it! What did Wang Ye give my sister?” Zero’s face turned red with anger.
“No, I have to talk to Yichun again!”
“Don’t. It’ll be embarrassing.” Dong Baiying appeared behind him.
“Yichun isn’t usually like this!” Zero insisted. “I have a great relationship with her! Wang Ye must have used some method to deceive her!
Another victim.
Dong Baiying looked at Zero, seeing shades of Nong Bi’s shadow in him.
“Let’s go complete the mission,” Dong Baiying suggested.
“No! If we leave like this, it means I’ve lost to Wang Ye! And without Yichun, we won’t know where to find the Poison-Curse race’s main camp!” Zero’s expression was tense.
“To the Dream Star Sub-continent,” Dong Baiying said. “I just overheard them say it outside. The chances are over fifty percent.”
Zero widened his eyes, looking at Dong Baiying.
He had a look of surprise, realizing Dong Baiying seemed honest but was cunning.
“It was just a slip of the tongue,” Dong Baiying said, pulling Zero back. “Let’s
“Why should I listen to you? I’m the captain!” Zero protested.
“If you don’t want me to call you Dong Bailing.”
Zero was speechless.
Inside the stone house.
“Gone?” Dongheng Wanyi looked over.
“Sorry for the delay.” Jiang Yichun nodded to everyone.
“Are you okay?” Wang Ye asked.
Jiang Yichun shook her head. “There’s nothing between us. He just misunderstood. I already rejected him once during the investigation.”
Wang Ye nodded without pressing further. “Let’s continue. We were just discussing the over fifty percent chance of the Dream Star Sub-continent. Is there concrete evidence?”
“Not really,” Jiang Yichun replied. “But we have three clues to consider.”
“First, Dream Star Sub-continent was the first target of the Poison-Curse race’s attack in the Pentagram Continent.”
“Second, human cultivators have encountered Poison-Curse race experts in
Dream Star Sub-continent numerous times.”
“Third, Dream Star Sub-continent consistently ranks in the top two among the five sub-continents in terms of mission quantity, completion rate, and human cultivator presence.”
Everyone nodded.
The combination of these three clues indeed pointed to a high likelihood.
“What about the Sky Star Sub-continent?” Wang Ye inquired.
“This is the sub-continent with the highest number of human cultivators,” Jiang Yichun explained. “Similar to the Dream Star Sub-continent, it has seen encounters with the Poison-Curse race’s experts. Besides the Barbarian Star Sub-continent, it’s the only other sub-continent where there’s concrete evidence of the Poison-Curse race’s presence.”
“Is there a possibility that the main camp is located on the Barbarian Star Sub-continent?” Qifeng Zhenqing suddenly interjected.
“The likelihood is slim.” Dongheng Wanyi shook his head.
Wang Ye pondered, “From what we can see now, the Poison-Curse race is very cautious and has precise targeting. They haven’t launched a full-scale assault on the Pentagram Continent, indicating a deeper plan.”
Dongheng Wanyi nodded, “That’s their usual approach, strategic preservation.
If it were the Bloodkill race, they would have already launched a massive invasion and slaughtered the entire Pentagram Continent.”
“They dare!” Qjng Yu snorted disdainfully. “The six major star races are affiliated with the human race. If the Poison-Curse race dares to act, they will undoubtedly pay a heavy price!”
Wang Ye added, “The Poison-Curse race knows this. That’s why they’re proceeding cautiously, seemingly unhurried but executing a covert strategy. Judging from the recent fall of the Barbarian Star Sub-continent, they’re not far from completing their plan.”
Dongheng Wanyi turned to Wang Ye, “Shall we head to the Dream Star Sub-continent?”
“Let’s not rush to decide,” Wang Ye deliberated. “We only have one opportunity. If we choose the wrong location, all our efforts will be in vain.” “Failure to complete the mission is a minor setback. Allowing the Poison-Curse race’s plan to succeed would be a major disaster.”
“Given the Poison-Curse race’s cautiousness, even if we know which sub-continent they’re on, finding their main camp in the vast wilderness will be akin to finding a needle in a haystack.”
“I’ll take a few more days to consider if there’s a better approach.
“Agreed.”
Poison-Curse race’s main camp.
“How’s the progress on the Barbarian Star Sub-continent?” Wu Ren held a girl in each arm, his eyes gleaming.
“Master, we’ve captured nearly eighty percent of the Barbarian Star race’s children. We’ll soon complete the mission,” the elderly man reported.
“That’s too slow,” Wu Ren frowned. “What’s that useless Wu Pu doing? He brought so many clan experts to sweep through a mere Barbarian Star Sub-continent, yet he’s still dragging his feet.”
“The Barbarian Star race is on high alert. Additionally, many races are consciously retreating, causing some delays,” the hunched elder explained. “Moreover, numerous human cultivators are assisting the Barbarian Star race in defense, resulting in considerable losses for our clan’s experts.
“Especially a disciple named Wang Ye from the Primordial Star. He’s already slain nearly a hundred of our clan’s experts!
“The Primordial Star isn’t extinguished?” Wu Ren’s expression turned grave.
“No, he’s still just at the Black Hole level,” the hunched old man said. “He should be a rising star among humans, with quite impressive talent.”
“Have Wu Pu capture him!” Wu Ren’s eyes glinted with malice. “I want to subjugate him, let him taste the slave poison I’ve meticulously crafted! To forever be my servant, never to rise again!”
“A human prodigy?”
“Pah! He’s only fit to be my lowly slave!”
In the territory of the Barbarian Star race.
Wang Ye and Jiang Yichun walked side by side, discussing the current progress of the mission.
“With your talent, which possibility seems more likely?” Wang Ye asked.
“I feel the savage regions of the Sky Star Sub-continent are even more perilous,” Jiang Yichun replied truthfully. “But it might not necessarily be the Poison-Curse race. It could also be some kind of formidable restriction, the treacherous terrain of the savage regions, or something else. It’s hard to say for sure.”
Choosing between the two options was giving them a headache.
If only it were as simple as pursuing a girlfriend.
“If we don’t have any other options, let’s stick to the plan we discussed these past two days and split up,” Wang Ye suggested. “I’ll head to the Sky Star Sub-continent, while the four of you go to the Dream Star Sub-continent to widen our search.”
“Aren’t you taking anyone with you?” Jiang Yichun inquired.
“Take who?” Wang Ye looked puzzled.
“Your girlfriend,” Jiang Yichun said with a sly smile.
All, she was indeed sharp as a chili pepper.
As Wang Ye pondered his response, they suddenly heard a commotion ahead. Wang Ye turned to Jiang Yichun and said, “Let’s go check it out.
“Okay.”
“Let me out!”
“I want to leave!”
“I want to avenge my father!”
A boy as strong as a calf struggled desperately, his eyes filled with sorrow and anger, a scar visible on his neck.
Barbarian star race warriors restrained him, while other children tried to hold him back.
“You’re awake, little one,” Wang Ye approached, observing the resilient barbarian boy.
Despite having his neck bones shattered, he showed remarkable willpower by surviving and walking away from death s door.
The calf-like boy looked at Wang Ye with a hint of confusion.
“He’s Lord Wang Ye from the Primordial Star,” the Barbarian star warrior explained. “He’s the one who rescued you and brought you back.” “I remember you!” a slightly shorter, muscular boy exclaimed. “You saved Suo Kathat day!”
Suo Ka’s eyes sparkled with recognition as he dropped to his knees with a thud. “My benefactor, please accept Suo Ka’s gratitude.”
“It’s nothing,” Wang Ye helped Suo Ka up. “Why aren’t you resting? Why are you out here?”
Suo Ka clenched his fists tightly, his eyes ablaze with fury. “I want to go and kill the villains! To avenge my father!”
“You’re still too weak. Let’s talk about revenge after you become a warrior of the barbarian star race,” Wang Ye advised.
Suo Ka gritted his teeth. “The whole race is fighting. I don’t want to hide like a coward! Even if I’m not strong enough, I want to do my best and kill as many as lean!”
“Go back, Suo Ka. You are the hope for our race’s future,” the barbarian star warrior urged.
“No!” Suo Ka’s gaze was unwavering. “My father is dead, and I have no family left. Living alone has no meaning. I only want to avenge my father and kill the villains on the battlefield!”
“Grant my request!”
“Even if you disagree, I’ll find a way to slip out!”
The barbarian star warrior scratched his head, feeling a headache coming on.
“Do you truly seek revenge?” Wang Ye suddenly asked.
“Yes!” Suo Ka’s determination was palpable.
“Not afraid of death?” Wang Ye inquired.
“If I die, I’ll be able to reunite with my father,” Suo Ka looked up at the sky, tears streaming down his face. “I miss him so much… If there’s a next life, I want to be his father and repay his kindness.”
Wang Ye gazed at him intently. “If that’s the case, I have a way to help you seek vengeance.”
