Chapter 699 - 659: Fear



In the ninth-level and highly-advanced Civilization Star Domain, the battleship carrying Lin Yun and his party was swiftly traveling through space.

Sometimes they sped through acceleration space where few inhabitants existed, sometimes they navigated through ordinary space with numerous space turbulence making further entry into acceleration space unsuitable, and at times they found themselves within heavily populated interstellar ports, teleportation area.

"Six premium battleships of ninth-level technological civilization rating, what kind of powerhouse command such a fleet?"

"Not just top-tier battleships, but five of them are far from ordinary. The value of one of them is probably equivalent to multiple regular high-grade battleships combined."

"Really, that precious?"

"Clear the way quickly, the owners of these battleships are not to be trifled with!"

Many who saw Lin Yun’s fleet were in awe and their whispers of admiration were detected by Bahu Ye and his party’s battleships. Lin Yun’s group heard everything.

Premium battleships of the ninth-level technological civilization might not have been rare in the ninth-level Civilization Star Domain, but fleets of six such battleships were indeed a marvel.

Then there were those with keen eyes realizing that several of Lin Yun’s battleships weren’t just ordinary premium ones but were valued at several times that of a regular premium battleship — even more astonishing.

Ironically, many who were able to spot the significance of Lin Yun’s fleet seemed quite conceited as they did so.

In their minds, identifying such advanced battleships wasn’t everyone’s cup of tea, being able to do so made them feel extraordinary.

This feat represented their personal experiences and horizons which clearly exceeded those of ordinary people.

"It must be related to the approaching Heavenly Principle Fruit competition, they might be participants!"

"I heard, not long ago, the notorious Bloodthirsty Demon who’s been stirring up trouble in our ninth-level Civilization Star Domain once again began preying on the strong. Many of the super warriors are at risk. Coincidentally, the Heavenly Principle Fruit competition is just around the corner so many of them have spontaneously grouped together for the journey.

These people might be part of such groups."

"Indeed, anyone capable of commanding such battleships must be extremely powerful. They wouldn’t miss the Heavenly Principle Fruit competition."

"Looking at their battleships, it’s likely that they include multiple quasi-Super Warriors in the group."

As the group continued to display their knowledge, they received stunned gazes from bystanders which made them even more proud.

Lin Yun paid little attention to this kind of information, it wasn’t meaningful.

The conversations that interested Lin Yun and his party were of another sort.

"Fresh news, another pair of quasi-Super Warriors were slain on their way to the Heavenly Principle Fruit competition, this could only be the work of the Bloodthirsty Demon!"

"I got a message from a friend. Daoist Jiu, a quasi-Super Warrior from Womo Empire, along with more than a hundred twelfth-level cultivators under his supervision, were all annihilated. Witnesses say the Bloodthirsty Demon did it..."

One by one, sets of information were relayed by Lianshan, Xiao Chong, and the other quasi-Super Warriors to Lin Yun, causing a wave of unease within the group.

"This Nanweng has truly lost his mind. Since his identify has already been exposed and yet, he dares to act like this. Earlier, some Super Warriors demanded that he hand over the Bloodthirsty Sword, assuring him they wouldn’t involve the Nan family.

All members of the Nan family have already been restrained by those Super Warriors, however, with Nanweng still acting this way, numerous powers and warriors are angered. Those Super Warriors are also running out of patience..." Qing Luo said solemnly.

"If this continues, the entire Nan family will surely die!" Lianshan nodded in agreement.

"These Super Warriors controlling the Nan family wanted to use this method to get Nanweng to hand over the Bloodthirsty Sword willingly. However, Nanweng’s slaughtering rampage has angered other Super Warriors. Clearly, Nanweng doesn’t care about the fate of his family members, this can be seen as provocation against those controlling his family.

At this rate, the extinction of the Nan family is inevitable!" Xiao Chong echoed.

"Thinking about it, Nanweng refusing to hand over the Bloodthirsty Sword might not be a bad thing. He’s currently at the quasi-Super Warrior stage, yet already so powerful and causing such destruction. What if the Bloodthirsty Sword falls into the hands of a Super Warrior? What kind of power would that Super Warrior possess?

Would he be able to resist the temptation of the Bloodthirsty Sword’s power-boosting capabilities? If he can’t, what kind of slaughter would that lead to?"

"If Nanweng hands over the Bloodthirsty Sword, would any one Super Warrior dare to accept it? Even if there are only a few Super Warriors, they surely wouldn’t let the Bloodthirsty Sword fall into one person’s hands. Thus, such an occurrence is unlikely. Still, who knows!"

"Right, this matter is indeed hard to say!"

They discussed further, each giving their thoughts.

"Right now, our biggest worry is the Bloodthirsty Demon, Nanweng! Currently, he’s roaming around killing strong warriors with quasi-Super Warriors and powerful twelfth-level cultivators as his main targets. It’s clear his focus is on those heading to participate in the Heavenly Principle Fruit competition!"

"From these several murder incidents, we can analyze that his strength has yet to break through to the Super Warrior realm. It seems, as Master Lin stated, Super Warrior Ouyang Zhanlei was previously severely injured and Nanweng had benefited from the situation!"

"Aside from that, out of Nanweng’s targets, the strongest were three quasi-Super Warriors. His next target is unlikely to exceed this strength. In our group, we have six quasi-Super Warriors and Brother Xiao is equivalent to having several quasi-Super Warriors. Thus, we’re likely quite safe..."

Lianshan, Qing Luo, and the others opined further.

Yet, hearing the discussion up to this point, Lin Yun shook his head.

He sensed that Lianshan and Qing Luo were under the impression that Nanweng didn’t have the audacity to take on stronger troops due to his limited power.

This was probably a misunderstanding.

He’d once watched as Nanweng and Ouyang Zhanlei battled.

At that time, Nanweng was weaker than Ouyang Zhanlei during their confrontation, but not by much.

Suffice to say, Nanweng’s power level didn’t stand a chance against three ordinary quasi-Super Warriors.

Not to mention, after Nanweng killed Ouyang Zhanlei and so many other quasi-Super Warriors along with numerous powerful twelfth-level cultivators, there was no doubt his strength had further increased.

He reckoned that Nanweng hadn’t targeted those powerful troops out of caution.
