"This person is too ugly."
This is the reason Qin Xiao gave for killing people.
Yondu's lips twitched. If it weren't for the speed Qin Xiao had just displayed, that Yaka Arrow that was poised to fly out in mid-air might have already been sent flying.
"We are the Ravagers, are you provoking the Ravagers Alliance?"
Seeing that he definitely couldn't win in a fight, Yondu brought out the banner of the Ravagers Alliance.
Qin Xiao smiled slightly, not revealing the fact that Yondu had long been expelled from the Ravagers. Instead, he flicked his right hand, and a wormhole appeared out of thin air. He reached out and grabbed Star-Lord, who was still waiting for Qin Xiao to rescue him on the Milano.
With his right hand gripping Star-Lord, a Tang sword materialized in his left hand and landed directly on Star-Lord's neck.
Star-Lord had no idea what was happening before Qin Xiao dragged him out of the spaceship and held a knife to his neck.
"You..."
"Shut up! Cooperate with me! Otherwise, I'll hand you over to them and let them take you away!"
Star-Lord had barely opened his mouth when Qin Xiao whispered something in his ear, interrupting him.
Although I didn't see what happened outside, judging from Qin Xiao's actions, I should just follow his lead and cooperate.
So Star-Lord started acting on his own before Yondu could even speak.
" Yondu, it's so good to see you. You saw it, I was captured by this guy. It was definitely not intentional that I was hiding from you. In fact, as soon as I got the item, I wanted to go find you, but who knew this guy would suddenly appear. Then I heard that you had a bounty on my head. And for the sake of the gods, you actually didn't believe me. This is really heartbreaking."
After saying that, Star-Lord shrugged to indicate his innocence.
Yondu was a worldly man, and although he was extremely anxious inside, he didn't show the slightest bit of nervousness.
"He's a traitor to my team. I can give you his bounty right now. You can take anything he has if you're interested, but he himself must be handed over to me for disposal."
"I'll take what I need myself. I'm not interested in your bounty. I have a habit of never leaving anyone alive. I'm here for him today, it has nothing to do with you. I only killed him because your men shot at me. Now, take the rest of you and leave this place immediately. If they fire again, I guarantee everyone here will die!"
Qin Xiao swung his Tang sword in his left hand toward one of Yondu's landing ships in the Yondu.
A massive fire dragon roared out, instantly melting, evaporating, and vaporizing the entire landing ship. If it weren't for the viscous, magma-like liquid that remained on the spot, it would have been as if the landing ship had never existed.
Yondu's small eyes narrowed even more. This person, whose speed exceeded his reflexes, could tear through space, fly, and possess unparalleled external energy, was someone their team couldn't keep.
Before Yondu could speak, his men had already made their choice.
"Boss, let's go. We brought Quill back anyway to kill him. This guy looks tough to deal with. We can't risk the whole team for Quill."
Yondu's subordinates were mostly opportunists; otherwise, the vast majority wouldn't have betrayed Yondu in the end.
Upon hearing someone speak first, the people around him echoed, and even those a little further away looked at Yondu with expectant eyes. Although they didn't speak, the meaning in their eyes couldn't be clearer.
Sacrificing an entire team for one person? They're not going to do that.
This approach was absolutely the right choice for the team; it was about sacrificing a pawn to save the king, but it also affected the bond built up over decades.
Yondu gritted his teeth, opened his mouth, but ultimately remained silent.
But with a whoosh, the Yaka Arrow shot straight toward Qin Xiao's head.
In the movie, it was meant to be clear, but when you actually faced it, the Yaka Arrow was incredibly fast. Qin Xiao panicked for a moment, and the Yaka Arrow was already aimed straight at his forehead.
Even before they were upon me, a sense of pressure emanated from between my brows.
Qin Xiao's reaction was also incredibly fast; his left hand instinctively slashed out with a knife, striking first despite being behind.
A sharp "ding!" startled Star-Lord.
The Yaka Arrow was knocked away by the sword, but before it flew far, it circled in mid-air and came back again at Yondu's whistle.
This time, the speed was at least 30% faster than before. I don't know what kind of structure this Yaka Arrow has, but at such a high speed, there was only a faint sound of it cutting through the air.
This time, Yondu was smarter. It seemed to be aiming for Qin Xiao's forehead, but it changed course just before it got close. The Yaka Arrow circled half of Qin Xiao's body from more than two meters away.
It stabbed towards Qin Xiao's back.
Yondu has used this trick to trick countless powerful beings in the universe, but this time he miscalculated.
Qin Xiao didn't move at all.
Actually, it wasn't that he miscalculated; Qin Xiao simply hadn't planned to defend against this move. Since the goal was to repair the father-son relationship, the fighting couldn't continue indefinitely. He had to show Yondu his strength.
The fact that Yondu dared to launch a sneak attack with Yaka Arrow shows that he still held a sliver of hope, and what Qin Xiao had to do was to completely shatter that sliver of hope.
The Yaka Arrow suddenly turned, Yondu, seeing that Qin Xiao hadn't drawn his sword, felt a chill in his heart.
But upon closer inspection, seeing that Qin Xiao showed no intention of using his sword to defend his back, his eyes burned with renewed intensity.
The fleeting attack, in Yondu's fervent anticipation, seemed to be divided into frames of ultra-slow motion.
When the Yaka Arrow was within half a meter of Qin Xiao's heart, Yondu smiled. He knew that no matter how fast Qin Xiao was, he wouldn't have time to defend against it.
He's... dead.
The plan was well thought out, but reality was far from ideal; the smile on my face hadn't even had a chance to fully bloom.
The Yaka Arrow didn't pass through Qin Xiao's body as Yondu had imagined. Instead, it seemed to encounter some obstacle, bounced off, and fell limply to the ground.
Without making a sound, it was as if a not-so-sharp sword had gently pierced the rear tire, and the tire had bounced off!
"Um?"
This question arose simultaneously in the minds of Yondu and all the Ravagers present.
Yondu's Yaka Arrow can pierce even large spaceships, and so far, they don't know what can stop Yaka Arrow.
The first thing that came to everyone's mind was what kind of close-fitting protective gear this person was wearing.
Yondu is included as well.
The persistent whistle rang out again, and the Yaka Arrow once more launched a series of lightning-fast attacks on Qin Xiao's neck, head, and various parts of his body.
Qin Xiao simply let go of his defenses, pulled Star-Lord aside, and let the Yaka Arrow keep piercing his body.
Yet not even a single red mark appeared on the skin.
