In the warehouse of a ship sailing in the vast star field.
"hiss"
This bastard Long hit really hard, but luckily he hit the part with the most flesh, so he wasn't afraid of hurting his son.
Oh, there is also a possibility that I am not my biological child, but was just picked up from the trash can... Covering the part that was hit, Jing Xia woke up with a frown on his face.
Jing Xia quickly adapted to the darkness of the surrounding environment. When he found himself in a large cage, his face became even darker. He cursed in his heart and thought to himself, "Where has this sent me?"
"Hey, you're awake... Grandpa, the little brother from Blue Star you mentioned is awake."
A soft girl's voice was heard, accompanied by the rustling sound of clothes rubbing against each other.
The sudden sound made Jing Xia instantly alert. He used his mental power to explore the surroundings, and the scene in the darkness appeared clearly before his eyes.
"Little guy, are you awake? Are you feeling unwell?"
Another older voice also sounded.
Jing Xia looked towards the source of the sound. In a corner cluttered with things, a cage made of an unknown metal held a young and handsome man. He was sitting on the ground, leaning against the cage, but his voice was unexpectedly old and deep.
A little girl with fox-like ears was lying in the man's arms, looking at Jing Xia curiously. Her green eyes emitted a little fluorescence in the darkness, like fireflies in the night.
"Oh, don't be nervous, kid..."
The man felt the mental power emanating from Jing Xia and thought that this kid was quite powerful. This was at least S-level mental power. This kind of talent should be protected by the Alliance Empire. How could he be caught on this black market pirate ship?
He opened his eyes, which had been closed for a short nap, and the same emerald green eyes appeared in front of Jing Xia. Unlike the girl's eyes, these eyes had experienced more of the vicissitudes of life, yet were as deep as green agate.
"Hello, my name is Xinli Palmer, and this is my granddaughter Tina." Xinli rubbed Tina's head in his arms, turned to look at Jing Xia, trying his best to show his kindness.
"Jingxia"
Listening to the man's introduction, Jing Xia relaxed after finding out that the other party had no ill will towards him and was even friendly to him. He blinked his eyes and apologized for his overreaction.
Due to his irresistible instinct towards beautiful gems, and the helpless look on the other person's face and the harmless eyes of the little girl, Jing Xia began to reflect on whether his reaction just now was too cruel and scared the other person.
It must have been that bastard dragon's tail whip that caught him off guard that caused him to overreact. Yes! That's right! It's all that bastard dragon's fault.
Feeling that Jing Xia had withdrawn the powerful mental power, Xin Li put down the hand that was originally protecting his granddaughter's head. He found that Jing Xia was indifferent to the environment around him. After being wary of people at first and then letting down his guard, he felt even more helpless in his heart.
This kid is said to be carefree but still wary of others, and he is said to be careless but can still be dazed in the face of the unknown situation he is in...
"Xiao Xia, can I call you that?"
"Okay." Jing Xia nodded as he said this, not caring whether the other person could see it or not, his hair sticking up from not being groomed still swaying.
"How did you get caught?"
"ah?"
Looking at the boy's puzzled expression, Xinli expressed even greater concern about whether this child from Blue Star knew what was going on.
"Where are we being held captive?" Jing Xia reached out and grabbed the metal bar of the cage, trying to pull it. Wow, it was quite strong.
“…”
"This is a warehouse for a pirate fleet. We are now their 'cargo' to these pirates. Judging by the situation, they should be preparing to auction us and our belongings at the auction house in Vidi Star."
Xinli glanced at the various weapon mecha buttons and mineral gems stacked outside the cage.
"What is Vidi Star Seal?"
"The Vidi Star Seal is a system unconstrained by interstellar law. Auction houses there sell priceless items, even underground slaves or pets, to satisfy the illegal hobbies and needs of some wealthy individuals."
"Then Uncle Xinli, you guys..."
Looking at this handsome face that looked exactly like a young man, Jing Xia felt like he couldn't call him "Grandpa." Isn't that a galaxy like a black market? There's even human trafficking going on...
"...Tina and I are from Kron Star, so maybe we are more valuable in their eyes." Xinli laughed at himself.
The Kron people have ears and tails like animals when they are young. When they grow up, they can freely control and hide their ears and tails. Their appearance does not age. In addition, their appearance conforms to the aesthetics of many galaxies, making them a hot commodity at slave auctions.
Xinli narrowed his eyes as he thought about the latter part, his green agate eyes flashing with angry flames. If he had not been framed by the traitorous tribesmen, how could he have dragged Tina into such a state.
He secretly clenched his fists, thinking of a way to escape while explaining this to the naive teenager. This should be common sense for interstellar travel. The boy's confusion made Xinli suspect that he had either been controlled since childhood, unable to contact the outside world, or that he was well protected by his family. If it was either case, how could he be captured by space pirates?
The boy's appearance is exactly the same as that of the Blue Star people, but since the resources of the Blue Star were exhausted, only a very small number of Blue Star people have successfully migrated to other galaxies.
Later, the interstellar world discovered that the Blue Star people possessed stronger mental powers, and some even had a high probability of awakening unique talents, which was the envy of other races. If the Interstellar Alliance had not concentrated the Blue Star people in the central galaxy for protection, the Blue Star people might have been plundered by people from other galaxies for their genes.
