Chapter 994: The Empire Wants Respect
"The distance was quite far, so even if I was discovered, I would have a chance to escape. But I didn't expect his fighting power to be so strong that he directly detonated the entire sea of stars, and the meteorite group where I was hiding also exploded."
Hou Shanbai and the others didn't know what to say. They wanted to learn some skills, but in the end, they not only didn't learn any skills, but also hurt themselves.
This is so unlucky.
The handsome young man initially felt a little guilty, after all, it was really hard to say it out loud. However, when he saw his companions' half-smiles, he no longer felt guilty and said confidently, "You have no right to laugh at me. Honestly, if you were in that situation, you would have made the same choice as me."
That's the truth.
It is the nature of commanders to worship the strong. For those who are willing to wander the stars as pirates, it is one thing to be greedy for enjoyment, but it is also a big deal to want to become powerful through actual combat.
Lu Jinxiu's mecha operating skills are well-known throughout the Xuanyun Galaxy, especially his five-hit combo, which has attracted countless mecha warriors to learn from him.
However, no one has been able to learn it so far.
They also tried slowing down the video to break down and learn each of Lu Jinxiu's moves, but it was useless.
I don't know how he did it, but all his moves were done in one go, smoothly and coherently, unlike them, who experienced a lot of lag and stagnation during the learning process.
It also puts a heavy burden on the body.
If they have the chance to watch it live, they will not give it up.
The topic came to an end here. The gentleman who had been silent pushed his glasses up his nose and finally spoke, "I found out that Jian Yan and Lu Jinxiu got their marriage certificate..."
He frowned and looked at Hou Shanbai, "Given Lu Jinxiu's character, Jian Yan will let us take him back to the Twelve Regions of Black Star, but he will not leave Jian Yan's side."
"This also means that the Black Star Twelve Regions must open their doors to welcome the arrival of the expeditionary force."
"Also, according to the information I've found, Jian Yan is no ordinary person either. She is accompanied by a group of Abyss Overlords."
Hou Shanbai narrowed his eyes. "It's better if it's not simple. As for the expeditionary force entering the Twelve Regions of Black Star, it's only a matter of time."
The gentleman suddenly smiled twistedly upon hearing this. "That's right. The Black Star Twelve Regions are now only a matter of time before they fall into hell. If Lu Jinxiu and the others can truly resolve the situation, our surrender won't be a big deal."
"I'm afraid that if we agree to surrender, the Empire will eventually destroy us."
The gentleman glanced at the woman who was speaking and smiled slightly, "Then take a few people with you. Pirates never fear death, or are you afraid of death?"
The woman ignored him and turned to look at Hou Shanbai. Hou Shanbai shook his head in amusement, "Don't worry. The empire has to maintain its reputation. They might destroy the bridge after crossing it, but they can't get rid of us."
The cold woman who was resting her head on the handsome man's lap with her eyes closed burst into laughter when she heard Hou Shanbai's words, "Brother Shan, you can just say that the empire is hypocritical, there is no need to say it so elegantly. Those great civilizations..."
She snorted and said calmly, "They are not good things."
Hou Shanbai remained noncommittal. "Little Bell, stop messing around. Brother Shan is being serious."
Little Bell was so angry that she pinched the handsome young man. The young man gasped, but without saying anything, he touched her head to comfort her. He looked like a master comforting an angry little animal.
Hou Shanbai and the others were already accustomed to this kind of situation, so they didn't even bother to look at it and just moved on to other things.
