"Huh?"
Fascinated by the story, Xie Anan exclaimed, "Sand Scorpion is not someone to be messed with. He is already a dominator in such a lawless place as Iron Plateau. This time, he is definitely going to teach the Wu family a lesson!"
Long Yunxin blinked and said, "If he had just fought without caring about anything, I wouldn't have thought so highly of him. He is just a reckless man.
"However, according to my friend, Sand Scorpion made the enemy attack him first. Not only that, the enemy attacked him heavily!"
"Are they out of their minds?"
Xie Anan was greatly surprised. "He is the best warrior of the six tribes of Iron Plateau. How could they be so bold?"
"This is exactly why Sand Scorpion is so cunning!"
Long Yunxin took a deep breath and said, "When Sand Scorpion first showed up, he did not reveal his identity. He seemed to be a common bumpkin who had just entered the city. It is said that he was mocked by a few members of the Wu family in the welcome party, but he did not say anything or fight back. Even when a Cultivator of the Wu family challenged him, he refused the challenge by saying that he was' injured and inconvenient '. All he cared about was eating meat with his head covered. He was immediately despised by everybody.
"I wonder if he was really keeping a low profile, or if he was doing it on purpose. If it was the latter, he was too cunning.
"The Wu family was just a third-rate family in the Cross Wind Space Zone. How could they have known the real secrets? How could they have known that the bumpkin that they were mocking was the strongest expert on Iron Plateau?
"What happened later, nobody knew. All in all, the two parties had conflicts over the recognition of Wu Mafei's legacy and the division of his assets. There was no telling what was wrong with the Wu family, but they hired three Building Foundation Stage Cultivators to deal with Sand Scorpion!
"Guess what happened in the end?"
"What happened?" Xie Anan asked in a daze, her face red because of the cold.
Long Yunxin extended three fingers and shook them softly. She said, "The three Building Foundation Stage Cultivators were all armed to the teeth with the Crystal Suit!
"Not just the Crystal Suit, Sand Scorpion did not even use his weapons. He crushed the three of them with his bare hands! "
"What?!"
Xie Anan gasped. "You defeated three Building Foundation Stage Cultivators in Crystal Suits with your bare hands. So scary! "
Long Yunxin secretly clicked her tongue, too. "Exactly. According to the information I received, Sand Scorpion's hands are like those of devils. The moment his fists hit the enemy's Crystal Suit, the enemy's Crystal Suit would crumble into components and be dismantled by him in the blink of an eye!
Xie Anan bulged her eyes. "Dismantling the Crystal Suit with bare hands? It's unbelievable! "
Long Yunxin nodded quickly. "The three Building Foundation Stage Cultivators were rather famous in the Cross Wind Space Zone, but they were savaged by Sand Scorpion under such circumstances. Naturally, the entire Cross Wind Space Zone was shocked.
"Until now. Sand Scorpion just revealed his identity. He even accused the three Building Foundation Stage Cultivators of being assassins of the Temple of Immortals who were here to kill him! "
"The people of the Wu family thought that Sand Scorpion was just a Mr. Nobody. But now, they were all dumbfounded!
"Think about it. This is the critical moment for the cooperation between the space residents and the Iron Plateau natives. Sand Scorpion is not only the best warrior of the six tribes of Iron Plateau but also a visiting scholar invited by Flying Star University. Whatever his identity is, he is not someone that the Wu family can afford to piss off!"
Xie Anan couldn't help but chuckle. "Serves them right!"
Long Yunxin smiled, too. "Anyway. "Anyway, after the incident, it is said that most of the properties of the Wu family were returned to Wu Mayan. Although the two uncles who were up to no good were spared from prison, they were completely excluded from the decision-making circle of the family. After receiving some subsidies from Weibo, they left in disgrace.
"Later, Wu Mayan consolidated the properties of the Wu family. With the support of his mother, the Sha family, he established a new 'Glorious Sunlight Group'. The moment the group was established, it discussed cooperation and mergers with several sects in the Cross Wind Space Zone, which were mainly in the transportation industry. It was a demonstration of its tremendous capability!
"It is said that the Glorious Sunlight Group will focus on the trade between the space residents and Iron Plateau. It is very likely that it will monopolize a lot of resources on Iron Plateau!"
Xie Anan mumbled, "Wu Mayan is truly impressive. He is only a teenager. How can he be so capable?"
Long Yunxin flicked her forehead softly and smiled. "Little fool, Wu Mayan is only thirteen years old, and he grew up on Iron Plateau. What does he know? His mother's family, the Sha family, is just a noble family of doctors. How can they know anything about business? Besides, even if they are interested, they can't afford so many resources to establish the Glorious Sunlight Group! It must be Sand Scorpion who is controlling everything behind the scenes! "
Xie Anan was confused at first, but she suddenly realized what was going on. "Yes. I'm told that Sand Scorpion is very rich. Also, he is the best warrior of the six tribes of Iron Plateau. It is needless to say that he has a lot of connections on Iron Plateau. My goodness. If the resources of an entire planet are monopolized by his Glorious Sunlight Group, it will be horrifying!"
Long Yunxin nodded. "Yes. The real owner of the Glorious Sunlight Group must be Sand Scorpion. The resources of an entire planet are enormous. Even if he monopolizes one tenth of the import and export rights, it will be enough for the Glorious Sunlight Group to rise into the top organization of the Flying Star Sector!
"However, what I value more is Sand Scorpion's cunningness.
"Before, I thought the same as them."
Long Yunxin raised her chin at the four young refiners who were indulging in their fantasies. She chuckled and said, "I think that the best warrior of the six tribes of Iron Plateau is nothing more than a simple-minded barbarian with more brawn than brains. I think that he will be fooled by a few compliments and flattering words.
"However, after I heard the story, I was so scared that I was soaked in cold sweat. If everything was manipulated by Sand Scorpion in secret and even set up a trap to lure the Wu family into his trap so that he could help Wu Mayan get rid of the annoying family members, the man's cunningness is too horrifying!
"Those guys thought that the guy was a fat lamb waiting to be slaughtered. They did not know that the guy was not a fool at all despite his wealth! They wanted to trick him. If he swallowed all their bones later, they would think that they had taken advantage of him! "
Xie Anan's face was even more awkward, as if she had just bitten a sour apple. She said bitterly, "Sister Long, after hearing what you said, I don't want to meet the dreadful guy anymore!"
…
"Dear passengers, we are about to arrive at the No. 6 spaceport of the third orbital ring of Heavenly Saints City, the final destination of this journey. Please pay attention to your personal belongings and take the Ascension Brand Tranquilizer Pills that the Feathered Snakes Brotherhood offers to the passengers for free to ease the fatigue caused by the long journey. The Ascension Brand Tranquilizer Pills are made of thirty-six precious ingredients …"
Accompanied by the crisp and pleasant sound of the advertisement, Li Yao stretched himself and observed the view outside of the cabin window with great interest. He mumbled to himself, "How splendid!"
He was in the middle of a carrier hundreds of meters long. Naturally, it was not a real cabin window next to him, but a light beam that was displaying the real-time view of Heavenly Saints City captured by the crystal cameras.
It was not until this moment that Li Yao finally witnessed the magnificence and magnificence of the largest city of the Flying Star Sector with his own eyes.
They had passed the ninth and tenth orbital rings, the outermost periphery of Heavenly Saints City, half an hour ago.
The eleventh and twelfth orbital rings, which were further away, were still under construction.
Countless carriers and engineering starships were dragging war debris from various parts of the Flying Star Sector and refining them in the space factories around Heavenly Saints City. Together with the components refined in the asteroids and world fragments, they were the flesh and blood of Heavenly Saints City.
Thousands of construction workers and automatic construction magical equipment reminded Li Yao of ants that were building a nest.
Under the hard work of the workers, Heavenly Saints City was expanding and growing at a visible speed. It did not look like a cold, lifeless object but more like a magnificent beast that was roaming in the sea of stars.
Heavenly Saints City was mainly made of ten orbital rings around a star fortress. The orbital rings were connected to each other by super high-pressure vacuum tubes. Many of the vacuum tubes branched like branches, and the ends of the branches were connected to super small star fortresses.
At first glance, it looked like a weird, three-dimensional tree with infinite fruits growing on it.
They had drifted in Heavenly Saints City for half an hour, but they had not entered the third ring from the tenth ring yet. Hundreds of carriers had blocked the sailing route in front of them.
Li Yao retreated his eyes and focused his attention on the small table in front of him.
A common mechanical watch was placed on the table, which was made of 462 components.
Li Yao tapped the table softly with his right hand. Suddenly, he flipped his palm, and his spiritual energy flooded into the watch. Without moving his fingers, he dismantled the watch into hundreds of components within a moment!
"I still can't. My control over spiritual energy is still too crude. I can't dismantle all the components of the watch without touching it."
Li Yao slightly frowned.
After his hands surpassed the speed of sound, it was already extremely difficult to improve them. In order to significantly improve them, he would have to surpass the limitation and interfere with materials with his spiritual energy in order to control them more precisely than his hands.
Cultivators only had ten fingers after all. However, they could transform into thousands of spiritual threads. If every spiritual thread could be trained to be more agile than the fingers, the 'hand speed' would be improved by more than a hundred times!
If they were trained to the highest level, it would not be impossible for them to dismantle a Crystal Suit or even a starship with their bare hands.
Li Yao did not feel tired at all. He dismantled and reassembled the watch with his spiritual threads again and again, while his mind drifted back to one month ago.
When he thought of what happened in the Cross Wind Space Zone, Li Yao was amused.
Born in the magical equipment graveyard, he did not like to be exposed to the spotlight. Lurking in an inconspicuous corner and waiting for the prey to show up was the most comfortable state for him.
Therefore, he refused to go to Heavenly Saints City together with the foreign students, because a lot of reporters would certainly show up in such a large-scale exchange. He did not want to waste his precious time on meaningless social interactions.
As it happened, Wu Mayan was going to bury his father's ashes in his hometown, and Sha Yulan was going to visit her parents in the Cross Wind Space Zone, too. Therefore, Li Yao decided to go with them. He planned to take care of the family affairs with them before he went to Heavenly Saints City.
