"Hey, isn't it too dangerous to trick Li Jialing into going to the Seven Seas Grand Market with you?"
Looking at the back of the little lion who left in excitement, Boss Bai slightly frowned and said to Li Yao, "You know that he is the 'shell' that Blackstar the Great is determined to get, and you are still taking him into the lion's den. Isn't it inappropriate?"
"Is the Seven Seas Grand Market really a lion's den?"
Li Yao smiled and said, "Didn't we have a pleasant conversation with Zuo Tianying, Deacon of the Business Alliance of Ten Thousand Sectors, and we have a deep understanding of the operation pattern of the Business Alliance of Ten Thousand Sectors? Also, don't forget that I'm quite familiar with Di Feiwen, an important person in the early years of the Business Alliance of Ten Thousand Sectors who left the Imperium more than a hundred years ago.
"Therefore, if we are lucky enough, we will be able to win Jin Yuyan and the entire Business Alliance over without using weapons or even a finger on the trip to the Seven Seas Grand Market."
Boss Bai said coldly, "It's a shame that your luck has never been good."
Li Yao blinked and said, "In terms of danger, the space battlefield is equally dangerous for you. If the battle of the Blue Sky Market is like a snake swallowing an elephant, the battle of the Seven Seas Grand Market is like facing dozens of elephants, hippos, and rhinoceroses at the same time. One moment of carelessness and you will be trampled to death.
"Even though the 'Coalition Fleet of Pyromaniacs' has just been reorganized and upgraded, and Zuo Tianying and Li Wuji have provided the intelligence of the two parties, it is still a soul-stirring and perilous journey.
"If Blackstar the Great really wants to find Li Jialing, there will always be a way to find him. If he stays within my sight, I can take action in time if anything happens. That will be more reassuring. If he wants to be absolutely safe, he will have to escape to the desolate space zone for a couple of years. But how is that possible? Li Linghai has to save the queen. In order to save Li Linghai, he has to confront Wuying Qi. It is a responsibility that he cannot and does not want to avoid. "
After a brief silence, Boss Bai sighed and said, "It does make sense. This is always the case for parents and children. If anything happens to Bai Kaixin, not just Wuying Qi, even if I have to confront the Supreme Emperor and the Blood God, I'm afraid that I will have to do everything I can!"
"So!"
Li Yao smiled brightly, revealing his snow-white teeth. "Don't have so little confidence in me. Although it's possible to encounter some … small dangers when teaming up with me, which one of them didn't turn misfortune into blessing in the end? Don't worry, don't worry! "
Boss Bai sniffed and changed the topic. "The moment I saw Li Jialing, I suddenly thought of Han Te. Speaking of which, Han Te seemed to have changed in the past half month. He was no longer as arrogant and domineering as he was a few months ago. Instead, he has been keeping a low profile and focusing on his training every day. He did not go out to cause trouble or flirt with other girls.
"Now that I look at it, this kid really does have some talent in operating the ship's cannons. He is the future Fire Control Officer with the most potential I have ever seen. In the past, he was too confident, so confident that he was a little impatient. But now that he has calmed down and cultivated, his breakthrough has been extremely fast. I believe that it won't be long before he can take charge of a ship on his own."
"Really?"
Li Yao was quite fond of Han Te and Coloured Glaze, the two little fellows whom he met in the Land of Sins. However, he was too busy and troubled by all kinds of dangers to spend more time with and teach the two little fellows.
Li Yao had heard a thing or two about Han Te's recent situation, too. However, although he was a firm supporter of the monogamous system himself, he knew that the universe was boundless, and the environment and ecology of every habitable planet were different. Different social and marriage systems, as well as different opinions on love, would evolve, too.
In the precarious environment in the Land of Sins where one could be killed at any moment, driven by the instincts of survival and reproduction, everybody tried their best to survive and to seize every precious opportunity to sow their seeds and reproduce.
In such a way, even if they could not see the sun tomorrow, their genes could still be passed on.
A stable monogamy system could only exist based on a stable social structure. In the Land of Sins that was like a hell on earth because of constant wars, the genes of those who did not seize the opportunity to reproduce but were still thinking about love were destined to be passed on.
Han Te was a typical native of the Land of Sins who was only acting according to the 'morals' and 'social rules' of the Land of Sins. Li Yao had learned that there was no coercion or deception in it at all. Naturally, he would not meddle in the affairs of the lower half of Han Te's body with his stick of morals.
However, Li Yao did not care about Han Te's love life, but it would not be good if the young people were too obsessed with it and neglected their studies and training!
Therefore, Li Yao was thinking that he should have a good talk with Han Te before he left the Blue Sky Market. Although it was a good thing, he still had to restrain himself. He should not eat too much every night just because he was young.
Right now, Han Te was still young and ignorant. He thought that he could dominate the world if he went on recklessly, but when he reached Li Yao's age, there would be no time for regrets when he met the lustful, insatiable women at that age!
However, it was hard to say that. Li Yao pondered for a long time but failed to come up with a good excuse.
He did not expect that Han Te would wake up on his own and realize the importance of keeping a low profile. Young man, you have a bright future. If you can endure such a thing, what great things can't you achieve?
Li Yao thanked Boss Bai in delight, but Boss Bai waved his hands and said that it was not his contribution. As a space pirate who had been used to doing whatever he wanted, how could he know how to educate a young man? It was all thanks to A Boxing Champion's enlightenment.
"I didn't know that A Boxing Champion was capable of that!"
Li Yao said in surprise, "I really wonder how he enlightened Han Te to make such a prodigal repent. He is truly patient and good at educating young people! "
While the two of them were talking and laughing, another petite figure appeared in their sight. It was Coloured Glaze.
"Grandpa Yao, I'm told that you are leaving tomorrow?"
The girl's eyes were red, and she was reluctant to be separated from Li Yao. She lunged forward and grabbed Li Yao's hand. "I'm here to give you a farewell dinner!"
"A farewell dinner …"
Li Yao was very moved, but he still said, "That's unnecessary. If everything goes well, we will meet again very soon."
"Of course. Of course."
The girl nodded solemnly and asked somewhat guiltily, "Well, can we have dinner together tonight as a farewell dinner for Grandpa Yao?"
"Dinner is certainly fine, but I don't have anything delicious here."
Li Yao said with a smile.
Like all the experts in the Yuanying Stage and the Divinity Transformation Stage, he had a very strict body management system. He only paid attention to comprehensive nutrition and did not care about the taste of his food. Most of the food he ate was bottles of strengthening drugs and synthetic nutrition drugs. Even the Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures that contained immense energy did not necessarily taste good. Many of them tasted like wax, and he had to swallow them all by himself.
If he really wanted to change his taste, he would only eat canned food at best, which was not really a delicacy at all.
"It's alright. Anything is fine."
The girl nodded quickly, as if she were about to cry in joy. But she thought for a moment and shook her head quickly. "Oh, noodles won't do. I don't want noodles. Anything is fine except noodles!"
"What's going on?"
Li Yao scratched his head. "Why is your face pale and sweating when noodles are mentioned?"
"Because …"
Coloured Glaze was not a person who could keep her feelings to herself. She immediately collapsed, and her face collapsed. She said pitifully, "I've been eating noodles for almost half a month! A Boxing Champion said that he had to take care of my meals for the sake of my perfect working status. But he made me eat noodles every day! Noodles in the morning, noodles at noon, and noodles at night. When I was working until midnight and exhausted, and my stomach was growling, my supper was still noodles! Moreover, they were all plain tomato omelet noodles. There was not even a single piece of vegetable or meat. Never!
"So far, I've had almost fifty meals of tomato and egg noodles. Grandpa Yao, you know that I'm not a delicate girl. I can endure any hardship, but isn't this too unbelievable? I feel like vomiting whenever I smell tomatoes. No, I feel like vomiting whenever the word 'noodles' is mentioned!
"So, please, let me change my taste tonight. Steamed buns, pancakes, canned food, fried rice … anything is fine, as long as it's not noodles, no tomatoes, and no eggs!"
The little girl couldn't help but shed tears of grievance as she spoke.
"Is that so?"
Li Yao was stunned. He looked at Coloured Glaze up and down and found that the little girl was indeed a bit swollen. He couldn't help but frown. "Just now, I praised A Boxing Champion for educating young people. Why was he so patient with Han Te and helped Han Te turn over a new leaf? Why was he so mean to you? Feeding such a cute little girl like you noodles for forty to fifty days in a row? How could he do such a cruel thing? He's too biased! "
"That's right. I suspect that I've offended A Boxing Champion in some way. Is he deliberately reminding me in such a way? At first, I was quite happy and touched when A Boxing Champion cooked noodles for me. He cooked according to the cooking textbooks, and the taste was very good. In the end, I found that he hid a poached egg under the noodles, which reminded me of my mother's taste. I really cried when I ate it! "
Coloured Glaze sobbed. "But, even the most delicious food can't be eaten every day. Besides, A Boxing Champion said that he would give me a new surprise every day. But his surprise was more and more poached eggs under the noodles!
"On the first day, it was one poached egg. On the second day, it was two. On the third day, it was three. In the end, he hid ten poached eggs under the noodles. Ten!
