Chapter 1009 - 715: Shocking Aerial Incident

Chapter 1009: Chapter 715: Shocking Aerial Incident

Young Master Zhao must compensate Tang Qingyan two hundred thousand Spirit Stones as an "apology for the disturbance".

Initially, Young Master Zhao relied on his status, full of resentment, and refused to agree.

But soon, he sensed that something was off.

The passengers around did not speak up for him, but instead echoed Tang Qingyan, accusing him of "misconduct" and "colliding with a senior".

Someone even hid behind the crowd and shouted, "Such conduct warrants death as atonement!"

When he raised his eyes and met Tang Qingyan’s gaze full of murderous intent, a chill ran up from his heart.

He suddenly realized that the spaceship had already departed far from Yueqi Sect.

Without the protection of the Fuhai Commerce Alliance, the seven of them were nothing but fish on a chopping block.

Young Master Zhao was afraid, his face turned pale, and he gritted his teeth as he took out the Spirit Stones.

Shen Xuan stood in the distance, observing coldly, saying nothing from start to finish.

This Tang Qingyan is truly worthy of being a Golden Core Sword Cultivator of the Sword Storage Pavilion; her temperament is indeed fierce, like unyielding bamboo, exacting revenge on the spot.

After this event, Elder Gu, the Zhang Bufan couple, and others also stayed silent.

The three of them vaguely considered Shen Xuan their leader.

In truth, everyone was well aware.

The matter of Yueqi Sect’s warship intercepting and increasing prices was by no means Young Master Zhao’s alone.

Even without him, such "tolls" were hard to avoid.

Yueqi Sect was shearing these "fat sheep" once more.

This matter would become routine.

Tang Qingyan’s actions were both personal grudge and a means to vent anger on behalf of all the passengers.

...

After several days, the spaceship suddenly experienced violent turbulence.

"What’s that?!"

"Look behind!"

Terrified cries came from the passenger cabins at the rear of the spaceship, spreading rapidly.

Many passengers rushed out of their rooms, heading for the portholes and deck, looking towards the horizon behind.

In the distance, dozens of miles away, three entirely black, shuttle-shaped spiritual energy warships were rapidly chasing through the sky.

On the sails, a grim blue wolf head insignia was painted conspicuously.

"It’s the Blue-faced Wolf! That notorious band of Tribulation Cultivators!"

However, what was even more terrifying awaited yet.

Behind those three black hijacking ships was an overwhelming army of demon birds, blocking out the sky!

Bald Eagles, Golden-winged Carvings, Poison Fire Crows...

Thousands upon thousands, densely packed, their shrill cries faintly audible.

Among them, there were more than ten leading Tier Three Bird Kings.

With their wings spread, Demon Qi surged into the heavens!

Inside the cabin, dead silence reigned for a moment, then erupted into greater panic.

All passengers turned ashen, eyes filled with despair.

At high altitude, Spiritual Qi is far thinner than on the ground.

Cultivators fighting in this environment have techniques greatly weakened and magical power recovers slowly.

Demon birds, born to command the wind, have speed, endurance, and adaptability far surpassing cultivators of the same tier.

In these lofty skies, even wind attribute cultivators would avoid direct combat with a demon bird of the same tier.

Given the defense force of the Fuhai Commerce Alliance’s spaceship, it was absolutely impossible to withstand a combined attack from Tribulation Cultivators and demon birds!

Both the spiritual energy warships of the Tribulation Cultivators and those demon birds were slightly faster than this massive passenger spaceship.

Once they were caught and encircled, it would be a dead end!

The Fuhai Commerce Alliance clearly realized the crisis.

The spiritual array at the tail of the spaceship suddenly brightened, accelerating crazily.

Simultaneously, the few spiritual energy cannons on both sides of the ship turned their barrels, runes on the cannon bodies charging rapidly.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Blinding beams tore through the air, fiercely blasting at the pursuers behind!

The artillery fire exploded in front of the demon bird swarm and hijacking ships, churning waves of air, temporarily pushing the pursuers back a little and opening up a bit of distance.

However, it didn’t last long before the spaceship suddenly slowed down.

"Pill Master Shen! There’s something wrong with the control room!"

Lady Hu’s urgent voice echoed in Shen Xuan’s Sea of Consciousness, filled with evident panic.

As per Shen Xuan’s instruction, she had been secretly monitoring the spaceship’s control room.

Shen Xuan moved like lightning, instantly arriving at the entrance to the control room corridor.

He saw before the thick metal cabin door, a Tier Three isolation restriction flickering with bright light, completely obscuring the situation inside.

"What happened inside?"

Shen Xuan asked in a deep voice.

Lady Hu spoke hastily, "Tian Haoran suddenly made a move and subdued Captain Liang! Qin Shiya used a Sealing Spirit Talisman on Captain Liang’s Sea of Consciousness and Dantian! They have taken control of the cockpit!"

As soon as she finished speaking, the entire spaceship jolted violently, abruptly halting, suspended in mid-air.

At this moment, everyone realized that a change had happened in the control room.

Tang Qingyan and Wu Jiajun hurried over.

The communication device in the cabin sounded with Tian Haoran’s voice.

"Ladies and gentlemen, please keep calm. To ensure everyone’s safety, after an urgent discussion, we have decided to negotiate a truce with the Blue-faced Wolf. Please stay in your respective cabins, and do not act rashly."

"Negotiate a truce? With Tribulation Cultivators? You’re selling us out!"

"Is this how the Fuhai Commerce Alliance does business? Where’s Captain Liang? Let him come out and speak!"

"No way! Tian Haoran, you must have conspired with the Blue-faced Wolf and those demon races long ago!"

"Traitors! Human scum! You won’t die in peace!"

The cabin instantly exploded into chaos, filled with angry shouts and curses.

"Be quiet, all of you!"

A cold shout, like eternal Profound Ice, instantly suppressed all the clamor.

Tang Qingyan wielded her life-bound Qinghui Sword, her murderous gaze sweeping over everyone.

She paused slightly on Wu Jiajun before fixing her gaze on Shen Xuan.

"Pill Master Shen, what should we do?"

Unless someone pledged allegiance to the Demon Race, willingly betraying the Human Race and joining Tribulation Cultivators, no one would believe in negotiating a truce with the Blue-faced Wolf.

The passengers on this ship, whether having some background or possessing a unique skill, would not, even with selfish motives, willingly become traitors or Demon Race lackeys.

"The immediate priority is to regain control of the cockpit."
