Huangpu Xiaoya was completely dumbfounded. She blurted out, "What kind of good guy are you?"
Li Yao blinked and said, "Society is a mess right now. There are so many bad guys in the sea of stars. They are all sordid, cunning, and shameless. How can we, the good guys, fight against the bad guys if we are not a hundred times more sordid and shameless?
"So, you might as well consider me a sordid, shameless good guy. That's all.
"I'm telling you this because I want to ask you something. Do you know how to use the 'Spiritual Butterfly VII' escape capsule?"
Under normal circumstances, two medium escape capsules and a dozen small escape capsules would be carried on board the carrier. The small escape capsules, on the other hand, were shuttles that could cruise in vacuum and boasted a certain degree of self-circulation.
Li Yao had found out during the maintenance yesterday that the small escape capsules on the carrier were exactly the 'Spiritual Butterfly VII'.
It was an escape capsule modified from an armed shuttle. It could carry one to three passengers and allow them to float in space for more than a month. It was powerful, fast, and agile. Other than the fact that its endurance was slightly lacking, it did not have many shortcomings.
It appeared that the Immortal Cultivators had been worried that they would be hunted and intercepted by the Cultivators on their way. Therefore, they had installed the best escape capsules on the starship.
"A sordid, shameless good guy …"
Huangpu Xiaoya was at a loss. She nodded subconsciously and said, "No — no problem. Why are you asking? Did you kill all those people? Isn't your combat ability in the beginning level of the Building Foundation Stage? How could you have killed Black Stone and White Dew? If you are really a good guy, why haven't you unlocked my barriers yet? "
Li Yao turned back and started making arrangements in the warehouse quickly. He dragged the bodies to suitable locations first and then took out a lot of crystal bombs from his Cosmos Ring.
As a maniac of explosions, he had refined the crystal bombs a long time ago. He had stored them in his Cosmos Ring in case of emergencies. It was a pity that he had been monitored by Su Jiuzhen for more than ten days since he had boarded the starship. He had never had a chance to activate his Cosmos Ring.
It was not until this moment that he was able to set them up crazily without any concerns.
Li Yao said as he worked nervously, "I can't let you out yet. If I let you out now, they will be suspicious. Just be patient and wait until we encounter Fengyu Zhong and the Great Horn Exo Society tomorrow. "
Huangpu Xiaoya widened her eyes and exclaimed, "What? Are you going to make trouble for Fengyu Zhong? To join the Great Horn Exo Society? "
"Don't be silly!"
"Even if your combat strength is very strong, so what if you can kill so many people in one breath?"
"There are at least five warships of space pirates around the Great Horn Exo Society. Not only are there ferocious space pirates on them, they are also very dangerous. There are even many mysterious Immortal Cultivators! "
"It is needless to say that Fengyu Zhong himself is at least at the middle level of the Core Formation Stage, if not the high level!"
"How are you going to fight them all by yourself? What kind of impact will it have on the battle? "
"Besides, do you think the crew on this transport ship are all blind? They won't be able to see you killing so many people. Why would he cooperate with you? "
"Perhaps with your strength, you can kill them all in one go. But so what? How are you going to find the Storm Prison Pirate Gang in the boundless sea of stars? "
"Even if you find them, do you think they don't have secret signals and security measures? I'm afraid that you will be blown up by their barrage before you can approach them! "
"You. What do you want exactly? "
Li Yao was unmoved. After working nervously for more than ten minutes, he finally finished the arrangement. He dragged Huangpu Shiyi's mangled body to the explosion-proof room where Black Stone White Dew had been and kicked him to a corner like a dead dog. The defense rune arrays were activated to the highest level.
"Shua!"
A total of seven layers of golden shields rose up around the explosion-proof room.
"You said something this morning that I quite appreciated."
Li Yao narrowed his eyes and looked outside. He calculated the location, angle, and changes of the explosion carefully, while he said softly, "If the universe is truly a dark, cruel, bloody forest, we Cultivators will burn our lives and unleash feeble sparks, too!
"Because, no matter how feeble, brief, and insignificant the sparks are, as long as we keep marching forward, one day, the sparks will ignite the weeds, the weeds will burn the bushes, and the bushes will spread to the trees. Eventually, the tiny sparks will raise a prairie fire in the dark forest and illuminate the entire world!
"Even if the odds are one in a billion, I will summon ten thousand percent of my courage and summon the fire!"
"BOOM!"
Li Yao's telepathic thoughts surged out. Dozens of his spiritual threads triggered the crystal bombs deployed everywhere in the warehouse at the same time. A series of deafening explosions burst out one after another.
Although she was hiding inside the explosion-proof room, Huangpu Xiaoya still felt that she was dizzy and that her ears were roaring.
Huangpu Xiaoya's heart was beating like a drum.
She had said what she had said in the morning. But when it was said by Li Yao in a deep, hoarse male voice, it sounded entirely different.
When he said these words, it was still a bit superficial. He was just cheering himself up in despair.
However, when it came out of Li Yao's mouth, she suddenly felt that it was possible for them to illuminate the entire universe!
"What — what kind of person is he exactly?"
In the darkness, all that was left of Li Yao was a fuzzy outline.
Huangpu Xiaoya stared at the outline in a daze.
A moment later, while the fire caused by the explosion was still raging in midair, Li Yao had already rushed out of the warehouse.
He examined the bodies carefully, only to discover that they had all been blown apart. There was no way that he could figure out the real cause of death in such a short time.
He picked up a battle saber that was almost melted and carried it on his shoulder. He collected some dust and smeared it all over his face. Then, Li Yao strode to a corner, turned on the alarm on the wall, and smashed it down brutally!
The alarms on the entire carrier were ringing loudly!
Three minutes later, there was a hurried knocking sound coming from outside.
Li Yao took a deep breath and took out a crystal bomb. He weighed it in his hand and put it next to him. Then, he gritted his teeth and triggered it brutally!
"BOOM!"
He was immediately enshrouded in a cluster of real flames. Half of his body was burning furiously!
"Ahhh!"
Huangpu Xiaoya screamed in fear. She had never seen such a brutal person who threw a bomb at himself!
What — what was he going to do?
Li Yao grunted and staggered to the gate with flames all over his body. He opened the gate with the last bit of his strength!
The warehouse was crowded with Immortal Cultivators. They were all the crew members of the carrier. Most of them were not battle-type Immortal Cultivators but only responsible for maneuvering the starship and identifying sailing routes.
Seeing the gory scene in the warehouse, they were all dumbfounded.
"Ahhh!"
Li Yao screamed again and again as he rolled in front of them.
"Hurry. Put out the fire!" the captain of the carrier shouted in a hurry.
A moment later, clusters of icy mist swept toward Li Yao and soon suppressed the flames around him.
At first glance, Li Yao's skin had been burnt to a pulp. Half of his face had been blackened. It was too horrible to look at.
"How did this happen? Did something go wrong during the production of the crystal bombs? "
The captain's head was in a mess. Of course, he knew about the competition between Huangpu Shiyi and Li Yao. However, the two of them were both experienced experts of refining, and the refining center had all kinds of safety measures. It shouldn't have gone wrong!
Judging from the mess inside the warehouse, it could only have been caused by dozens of serial explosions!
"It was not a mistake. It was intentional. It was a betrayal!"
Li Yao shouted desperately. "Huangpu Shiyi betrayed the Temple of Immortals. He planted so many bombs on purpose to blow us all up!"
All the crew members were dazed.
The captain was even more shocked. He stepped back subconsciously and grabbed the saber on his waist, while he declared resolutely, "It's impossible! Master Huangpu has been loyal to the Temple of Immortals for so many years. He has made up his mind to embark on the path of Immortal Cultivators. There is no way that he would betray us! What happened exactly? Tell me now! "
"Ahhh. It hurts!"
Li Yao grimaced and shrieked. "How do I know what happened? I only know that when Huangpu Shiyi and I were having a competition, an intense explosion suddenly took place next to us. An old man with a sharp mouth and monkey-like cheeks was blown out of the void!
"Then, the heavily wounded old man accused Huangpu Shiyi furiously, saying that he was abusing his position for personal gain and that he had deceived the organization!
"I listened for a long time, but I only got the gist of the story.
"Huangpu Shiyi brought us here for a mission. On the surface, it was to recruit new members for the organization, including experts of refining such as Huangpu Xiaoya!
"But in fact, he was coveting Huangpu Xiaoya's hands. He only wanted to trade them for himself!
"He wasted a lot of manpower and resources of the organization for his own benefit without any explanation beforehand. Of course, it was unacceptable!
"But for some reason, the old man with a sharp mouth and monkey-like cheeks discovered it!
"The two of them seemed to have reached a deal in secret. The old man helped Huangpu Shiyi cover it up, but there was no telling what Huangpu Shiyi was going to give him in return.
"But as it turned out, Huangpu Shiyi was only pretending to comfort the old man and buy him more time. In fact, he was secretly planning to kill the old man with a sharp mouth and monkey-like cheeks!
"However, the old man was more vigilant than Huangpu Shiyi expected. The explosion did not kill the old man. He was only heavily wounded!
"The old man burst into fury and said those words in front of everybody. He even said that Huangpu Shiyi was dead for sure this time! When he returned to the headquarters and met the Lotus King, the Lotus King would definitely make him beg for his life!
"Huangpu Shiyi turned extremely terrifying when he heard that. He burst into laughter and said, 'If I can't survive, let's die together!'
"Then, everything went black in front of my eyes. This is what happened!
