Chapter 1154: Guess!
After the Toxic Mirage Beasts died, the gray mist finally dissipated. The Devil Slayer s.p.a.cecraft left the gray mist zone and returned to outer s.p.a.ce.
Round Ball locked in on No. 29 Defense Planet. It exclaimed in shock, “We have gone extremely off course. We’ll need two to three days more to complete our journey.”
“Increase the speed to maximum,” w.a.n.g Teng said.
“No problem. Anyway, I didn’t expect this Devil Slayer to be so powerful. Its speed is around two times faster than the Flaming River,” Round Ball commented.
!!
“My race paid a huge price to build this Devil Slayer. We place special emphasis on speed and destructive power,” the antman queen explained softly.
“It’s indeed powerful. We just hit the asteroids gently with the Devil Slayer, and the sharp wings cut them into two. Even a heaven-stage martial warrior can get heavily injured by this s.p.a.cecraft,” Round Ball said.
Then, the s.p.a.cecraft entered the dark Universe and rushed towards the No. 29 Defense Planet.
“w.a.n.g Teng, you have a message,” Round Ball suddenly reminded him.
“Who is it?” w.a.n.g Teng was surprised.
“Di Qi.”
“Connect me to the virtual universe,” w.a.n.g Teng said hurriedly with a frown.
“Alright!” Round Ball nodded. It immediately connected w.a.n.g Teng to the virtual universe.
…
The virtual universe.
In the Great Qian Mainland, within the castle of the Cavendish family, Di Qi was sitting behind a table in an extravagant study room and waiting patiently.
Suddenly, w.a.n.g Teng’s figure appeared in the study.
“You’re finally here.” Di Qi’s eyes lit up. He smiled and said happily, “I couldn’t contact you for some time. What happened?”
“Sigh, I was being hunted by a universe-stage martial warrior.” w.a.n.g Teng sat down on the real leather sofa and poured himself a cup of fruit juice. He downed it in a single gulp.
The delicacies in the virtual universe were amazing.
This kind of fruit juice extracted from the Emerald Honey Fruit was a high-cla.s.s drink rarely seen in the universe. One could only find it on a large planet like Great Qian Planet.
w.a.n.g Teng could only drink it when he was at Di Qi’s place.
“What?” Di Qi sprung up from his seat in astonishment. “Why did you offend a universe-stage martial warrior again?”
“What do you mean by I offended a universe-stage martial warrior?” w.a.n.g Teng rolled his eyes uncontrollably.
“If you didn’t provoke him, why would he chase you?” Di Qi sat down beside him.
“Who knows? He chased me for no reason.” w.a.n.g Teng blinked. Then, he scoffed, “Besides the Parkers, I can’t think of another family with such capabilities.”
“Are you saying that the Parkers asked someone to kill you?” Di Qi frowned. “Do you have evidence?”
“I think so. Evidence? I’ll know after I ask that universe-stage martial warrior.”
“Ask the universe-stage martial warrior?” Di Qi was stunned. “Did you convince the martial warrior to switch sides?”
“No, I captured him.” w.a.n.g Teng poured himself another gla.s.s of fruit juice and savored it happily. “Not bad, get some real stuff for me next time.”
Di Qi was speechless. “Why are you still thinking of this fruit juice? Did you say that you’ve captured the universe-stage martial warrior? Are you kidding?”
“Why would I lie to you?”
“Come on, that’s a universe-stage martial warrior. Don’t make it sound so simple.” Di Qi didn’t know how to express his emotions. He felt exasperated. “So, how did you capture him?”
“It’s a long story…”
w.a.n.g Teng wouldn’t tell Di Qi that he stole a Devouring Nihility Beast.
The Devouring Nihility Beast was extremely mysterious. If others knew that he had one, it wouldn’t just be the universe-stage martial warriors chasing him. The implications were huge.
Thus, he just told Di Qi that he accidentally entered a restricted zone and found a way to turn the tables. Of course, the entire process was dangerous. He almost couldn’t come back.
He mixed some lies with the truth, so the reliability was quite high. He had a good relations.h.i.+p with Di Qi. He wouldn’t lie to him entirely.
Di Qi believed him too.
“You’re so lucky,” Di Qi lamented.
w.a.n.g Teng made it sound simple, but he could tell how precarious the situation was.
If he were to face a universe-stage martial warrior, he could only bring out his ancestor to save himself. He couldn’t think of any other ways.
In this aspect, he respected w.a.n.g Teng. This fellow was fated to be a protagonist.
“Lucky? I’m risking my life here.” w.a.n.g Teng shook his head.
“Judging from what you’ve said, it’s probably the Parkers family. You might not know, but the Law of Cause and Effect is instilled in Grand Duke Chongshan’s order. Once any martial warrior from the Parkers family attacks you, they’ll be found out. Hence, they can only ask outsiders to do the work for them,” Di Qi said after some contemplation.
“The Law of Cause and Effect!” w.a.n.g Teng was stunned.
This sounds high-cla.s.s!
Even the cause and effect is being used.
“Haha, you probably don’t understand how powerful Grand Duke Chongshan is.” Di Qi shook his head and sighed. “Honestly, I’m surprised that he spoke up for you.”
w.a.n.g Teng blinked. He thought of something. Did the Grand Duke know that he had the G.o.dslayer Sword Scripture?
If not, why would someone from the imperial family of the Great Qian Empire speak up for a small baron like him? It was unrealistic.
“Forget it, let’s not talk about this.” w.a.n.g Teng shook his head and asked, “Have you reached the No. 29 Defense Planet?”
“Yes, I got there more than a month ago and am waiting for you,” Di Qi replied. “But I forgive you since you were being chased by a universe-stage martial warrior.”
“Hahaha, you’ll have to wait for a few more days. I’m on my way.” w.a.n.g Teng smiled.
“Alright, hurry up. You’re the only one left.” Di Qi punched him. “If we work together, we’ll be able to make a name for ourselves on this No. 29 Defense Planet.”
When w.a.n.g Teng left the Great Qian Planet, Di Qi invited him to roam the No. 29 Defense Planet together and gain military exploits.
To the martial warriors in the Great Qian Empire, fighting with the dark apparitions on defense planets was the best way to train themselves.
Those martial warriors that fought dark apparitions in battles were all renowned figures.
w.a.n.g Teng also wanted to see how powerful a devil emperor was. At the same time, he could get some attribute bubbles, so he agreed to Di Qi’s suggestion.
w.a.n.g Teng and Di Qi returned to the real world after the small chat.
Just as he was about to go back for cultivation, he remembered something. He hadn’t dealt with Cao Jiaojiao and Cao Hongtu.
Swoos.h.!.+
He waved his hand and brought Cao Hongtu and Cao Jiaojiao out of his s.p.a.ce Fragment.
Cao Hongtu was heavily injured. He lay on the ground like a dead dog.
As for Cao Jiaojiao, she stood at the side with a complicated expression. She couldn’t bear to see her father in this state, but she felt extremely disappointed too.
