Chapter 1332: Liar Liar Pants on Fire!
It was no surprise to the leader that soon the 13 Lords immediately gave out an order to close off the area where the 7th Bugle Call docked at.
In the afternoon, swarms of people could be seen to and fro the 7th Bugle Call continuously.
The 7th Bugle Call seemed to have already made preparations for these uninvited guests. On the deck of the stars.h.i.+p, they had prepared a banquet with many types of food and drinks on the side. Although there weren’t any flamboyant decorations or cla.s.sy displays of antiques, it was still luxurious and elegant enough to accommodate these guests.
‘They probably hold high positions in their ranks.’ Thought the chief manager of the s.p.a.ceport after seeing the display of dishes in front of him. He raised his opinion on the people from the Rainbow Raiders in his mind once again.
Determining a person’s position and power didn’t require them to be there in person. It was possible to see some of it through the arrangements that person made.
However, he no longer had the time to keep guessing the position held by the captain of the 7th Bugle Call. That was because out of the 13 Lords, five of them actually sent representatives to attend the banquet, which was quite a shocker to the crowd. It should be known that newly arrived factions who wanted to make a name for themselves in the Lawless Lands, no matter how good their reputation was, the 13 Lords would only send one or two representatives to scout them. There had never been a time when there were more than three representatives. Thus, with five representatives coming all of a sudden, the chief manager of the s.p.a.ceport was so stunned that his mind was all jumbled up on all the theories on why they would send five representatives.
It was no surprise that Lord Gen, who the 7th Bugle Call had a bone to pick with, sent Guardian Ji Ming and Guardian Yu Shangfei here. Alongside them, they brought three domain realm masters who rose to fame recently. It was clear with their entourage that they were looking for trouble.
Everyone also guessed that Lord Gen’s eternal rival, Lord Zhen, would send representatives as well. Maybe it was a coincidence, but a few minutes after Ji Ming and Yu Shangfei arrived, out of the 12 of Lord Zhen’s Thunder and Lightning Enforcers, the 9th Enforcer, Bai Nuo, appeared with two of his subordinates.
However, everyone was shocked by the following appearances of Lord Holy’s Angel Zhi, Lord Li’s Magistrate Shadow Flame, and Midnight Rider. They were shocked because they didn’t know whether the 13 Lords had reached a consensus to make such arrangements or not. However, everyone knew the answer to their questions would be known soon, as the captain of the 7th Bugle Call was about to come out.
In the banquet area, all the guests had more or less arrived. However, even after 10 minutes of waiting, the 7th Bugle Call as the host, had only sent out servers and crew members to entertain them. There wasn’t a single authoritative figure from the 7th Bugle Call’s side on the deck. That included the t.i.tled domain realm formidable warrior who was rumored to be someone that even Lord Gen’s guardian, Ji Ming, couldn’t go against.
However, the situation was only temporary. The captain of the 7th Bugle Call would definitely show up. It was just unknown whether it was that t.i.tle domain realm master who already had a name for himself, or was it someone else. All of the guests who came were all extremely looking forward to knowing the answer.
Right at that moment, they heard some footsteps coming towards the deck. Everyone turned towards the large door that led to the deck, and three people were revealed under the glistening sun.
The middle-aged man walking at the front of the group had a rugged face, but he soon revealed that he also had a piercing voice. His voice reached those on the deck before he even arrived, “Hahaha… I’m sorry everyone. We were too busy counting our supplies. Sorry for making you wait.”
Out of the two people behind him was a man who was around the same age as the middle-aged man who spoke, but he looked more charming. The other one was a handsome young man. Despite the three of them walking in one after the other, everyone’s attention was completely drawn in by the young man after glancing over the middle-aged man. They couldn’t stop looking at him.
“It’s him,” Ji Ming said as he gritted his teeth.
“That kid killed a hundred of our men? He looks too young.” Yu Shangfei couldn’t help but frown. According to the way the young man stood, he didn’t give an impression that he was the captain of the s.h.i.+p. If a deputy was already that strong, then just how strong was that leading middle-aged man? Thinking up to that point, Yu Shangfei couldn’t help but be more cautious. Although he was stronger than Ji Ming, even if by a little, they still wouldn’t be able to do anything to them if the middle-aged man was stronger than the young man.
Luckily, in order to make sure everything went well, Lord Gen had another ace up his sleeve. Yu Shangfei admired his master because he could always think deeper and more clearly about matters like these.
Aa the three from 7th Bugle Call walked onto the deck, a lot of the crowd were closely paying attention to Ji Ming’s face. When they saw him looking at the young man with a hateful look, they guessed that the young man was definitely the t.i.tled domain realm formidable warrior Ji Ming couldn’t do anything against.
Everyone was shocked by their guess. Just how old was that young man? It looked as though he was 17 or 18 years old or at most in his early 20s. If he was a t.i.tled domain realm master at such a young age, then at what age did he become a domain realm master? Although the Lawless Lands provided their citizens an optimal environment for them to enter the domain stage and to become mecha pilots at a young age, there still weren’t many people who have reached t.i.tled domain realm master at such a young age. Those who did, had already been taken in by the 13 Lords to nurture and develop into their strongest killers.
“Let me introduce myself first. I am James, the captain of the 7th Bugle Call. This is my deputy, Fedoran, and our 5th Team Leader, Luo Tianhua.” Tian Fang irresponsibly and randomly created a few fake names. Luo Yang looked at Tian Fang helplessly. He knew that when there was the matter of fake names, Tian Fang would easily go off on a tangent.
Luo Lang on the other hand was carefully thinking about the fake name, Luo Tianhua. His final thought was that it was much nicer than his real name so he was extremely satisfied with it. Who knew he would actually hate his name ‘Luo Lang’…That was something unexpected.
“We don’t actually need to tell you where we are from, right? Everyone probably already knows, and we don’t plan on hiding it either.” Tian Fang continued to use their built impression of them to deceive them. Of course, if the real Rainbow Raiders came and interrogated them, he wouldn’t be afraid. When did they say they were from the Rainbow Raiders? I mean who asked them to jump into conclusions before confirming with them first
Tian Fang’s dismissive statement about their origin was very successful. Everyone nodded slightly after hearing his statement. With his words, everyone was certain that the 7th Bugle Call was a part of the Rainbow Raiders. Of course, they were already extremely certain of that fact, but Tian Fang’s words cemented that fact.
“Our objective coming here is to open up a business route, so I would like to ask everyone to help us and cooperate with us.” Tian Fang smiled as he put his hand out and bowed. His calm and respectful demeanor left a really good impression on everyone.
However, even if they had a good impression on James, they didn’t have the authority to accept their request. Everyone looked at the representatives sent by the 5 lords in unplanned unison as they waited for them to answer.
Lord Holy, Lord Li and Lord Yu’s representatives pretended to not hear anything as they looked forward calmly while swirling their wine gla.s.ses.
The scene suddenly became silent and the atmosphere turned awkward.
Ji Ming smirked coldly. The Rainbow Raiders shouldn’t think so highly of themselves and get involved in the Lawless Lands. They should be given this cold shoulder treatment.
Right as he was relis.h.i.+ng in the awkward atmosphere, a sharp voice pierced their ears. Lord Zhen’s enforcer, Bai Nuo, spoke up, “No problem. With an extra business route, the Lawless Lands will receive much more resources. Why not?”
Ji Ming’s expression changed instantly as rage burned in his mind. He didn’t think that Lord Zhen would recklessly accept the 7th Bugle Call’s request without asking for the approval of all 13 Lords. What he was doing was clearly slapping Lord Gen in the face.
