The cargo hold full of divine crystals shocked Yan Qingwu, causing her to gasp in astonishment. Just how many merchant ships had those space pirates robbed to amass such wealth? And how many people had they killed in the process? Yan Qingwu dared not even imagine.
Su Chen remained extremely calm. After all, the divine crystals in his hands were far more valuable than these other divine crystals. He hadn't wasted the past hundred years wandering around; there were always some people who thought he was a young master with enormous wealth.
Therefore, the idea of robbing Su Chen arose. However, in the end, these guys who tried to rob Su Chen all paid the price with their lives, and their wealth naturally belonged to Su Chen. Thus, over the course of hundreds of years, Su Chen accumulated a lot of divine crystals.
" Qingwu, these divine crystals should be enough to sustain your cultivation for several decades. You should put them all away," Su Chen said.
"Alright!" Yan Qingwu blinked. She knew that Su Chen had no shortage of divine crystals, so she didn't stand on ceremony. With a wave of her hand, the entire cabin of divine crystals surged into her spatial ring like a torrent. In no time, all the divine crystals were collected into the ring.
Yan Qingwu's eyes curved into crescent moons, her face beaming with joy. She was secretly delighted, knowing that for a long time to come, she wouldn't have to worry about Cultivation Resources.
"Huh, there seems to be a hidden compartment over there." Yan Qingwu was still immersed in joy, but suddenly, she noticed a hidden compartment not far away and immediately frowned. She sensed life force from the compartment. Could it be that there were space pirates?
Yan Qingwu arrived at the dark cabin, looking hesitant. She glanced at Su Chen Su Chen, and seeing him nod, she didn't hesitate any longer. She pushed open the door of the dark cabin, and instantly, voices begging for mercy rang out from inside.
Yan Qingwu raised an eyebrow, her eyes flashing. When she saw the scene inside the dark cabin, her face immediately darkened, and endless anger welled up in her heart. In her field of vision, there were dozens of naked women!
Each woman was covered in bruises, her face was deathly pale, and her eyes were vacant. Clearly, they had suffered inhuman torture before this. Yan Qingwu knew without a doubt who had done it. Those space pirates deserved to die!
When these women saw Su Chen and Yan Qingwu, their initial fear and apprehension turned into confusion and bewilderment. However, none of them dared to make a move and all huddled in the corner, trembling with fear.
"Those space pirates have already been killed by us. You can escape now." Yan Qingwu tried her best to calm herself down and suppress her anger.
"You... you killed all those bastards?" Upon hearing this, the group of women were first stunned, then their faces were filled with disbelief, because they knew very well how strong those space pirates were, at least at the Transcendence Realm, and their leader was even a God King Realm expert!
With such a powerful force, how could Su Chen and Yan Qingwu possibly have killed them all? But if those space pirates weren't killed, how did the two of them get here? The women were somewhat dazed. Could it be that they really had wiped out all the space pirates?
Thinking of this, the dozens of women gasped, their eyes filled with respect as they looked at Su Chen and Yan Qingwu, followed by excitement and exhilaration. They... could finally leave this place. Recalling the torment they had suffered, tears streamed down their faces as they wept bitterly.
"Thank you, thank you, young lady and young master, thank you for saving us, we are extremely grateful!" They all knelt down and kowtowed several times to Su Chen and Yan Qingwu, their faces full of gratitude.
"Your families must be very worried about you. Go back quickly." Yan Qingwu didn't say much. She raised her hand and waved it. Instantly, a powerful energy wave swept over the women, and the seals within their bodies were broken in an instant, restoring their cultivation.
Dozens of women were so excited that their bodies trembled. They thanked Yan Qingwu repeatedly and fled the place without hesitation. However, one woman did not move. She hesitated and seemed to have something difficult to say.
"What's wrong?" Yan Qingwu asked.
"Miss, and young master, the space pirates you killed didn't have simple backgrounds; they were affiliated with the Dragon-Hunting Star Pirates," the woman finally said through gritted teeth.
" Dragon-Hunting Star Pirates?" Yan Qingwu frowned.
"Yes, these Dragon-Hunting Star Pirates very famous throughout the entire God Realm. Their leader is a mysterious powerhouse known as ' Dragon Shadow. ' No one has ever seen his true face, but he possesses extremely terrifying strength. It is said that he is Half-Step True God!"
Led by Dragon Shadow, the Dragon-Hunting Star Pirates specialize in hijacking major merchant guilds, and they succeed every time. More importantly, they are known for their vindictiveness and extremely cruel methods of retaliation. Once provoked, no matter where you hide, you will be hunted down by them.
"Miss and young master, you killed their people, you will definitely be punished. You must be careful afterwards, otherwise... the consequences will be unimaginable." The woman became more and more agitated as she spoke, fine beads of sweat appeared on her forehead, and her hands unconsciously clenched tightly.
"We understand. You may leave now." After listening, Yan Qingwu pondered for a moment, and finally nodded.
"Alright, I'm leaving now. Remember to be careful and cautious." Without further hesitation, the woman quickly fled.
"Sigh~" Watching her fleeing figure, Yan Qingwu couldn't help but sigh, her expression complicated. At the same time, she felt fortunate. Fortunately, her talent for cultivation was not bad, but rather very good, and she also had a powerful backer. If she didn't have these, her fate would probably be no different from those women. Perhaps, this is the tragedy of ordinary people.
This incident further solidified Yan Qingwu's determination to become stronger. She wanted to take control of her own destiny and become someone no one dared to bully.
"What are you thinking about?" Su Chen asked suddenly when he saw Yan Qingwu lost in thought.
Yan Qingwu came to her senses and, without hiding anything, told Su Chen what she had just been thinking.
"Don't overthink it. No one dares to bully you Non-Self dead." Su Chen reached out and touched Yan Qingwu's tender cheek, speaking softly.
"Mmm!" Yan Qingwu smiled sweetly and took the initiative to throw herself into Su Chen's arms. The scent of him filled her with a sense of security, which made her feel at ease.
"By the way, what do you think of this Dragon-Hunting Star Pirates?" Yan Qingwu looked up at Su Chen and asked.
"If they dare to retaliate, just kill them." Su Chen said calmly, showing no concern.
"Hehe, as expected of my man!" Yan Qingwu laughed.
After spending some time cuddling there, the two went to check the remaining two low-level arks and discovered many treasures, all of which Yan Qingwu stored in her spatial ring. She was beaming with joy. In the end, she even stored all three arks away. Although she already had a mid-level ark, she could sell the extras. One mid-level ark and two low-level arks would be a considerable fortune.
