At that moment, a fleet was traveling through the depths of space. It consisted of a full 1,300 warships, each carrying over a thousand people. It was a band of space pirates with terrifying combat power.
They were the Red Scarf Bandits, led by Yu Kou, a True Fire Realm cultivator.
The fleet's power was incredibly fearsome, enough to destroy an indigenous planet dozens of times over. Without the ability to wage war in space, a planet had no chance of survival against a fleet like this. No matter how many people it had, they would only be cannon fodder.
In an age of high technology, numbers were nothing but a joke!
So the Red Scarf Bandits' fleet was in a very relaxed mood, as if they were off to fight a war with a leisurely stroll.
"We're almost there at last. I heard the place we're heading to this time is some kind of indigenous continent called the Cloud Sky Realm," one of the Red Scarf Bandits said conversationally.
"Right, the Cloud Sky Realm. I heard the name from the squad captain."
"I heard we're going there because Elder Yu Kou's son died horribly in the Cloud Sky Realm, killed by those natives. That's why they sent a fleet to take revenge."
Several Red Scarf Bandits spoke in hushed, knowing tones, sharing what they had heard.
"No way. Didn't Elder Yu Kou's son have a spaceship? How could mere natives have killed him? Could there be some unknown danger on that indigenous continent?"
One of the Red Scarf Bandits voiced his concern.
"Don't worry. We've already investigated the technological level of that indigenous continent. They can't even travel between stars, and individual cultivators are at most in the Divine Ability Realm. They're no match for the Red Scarf Bandits.
