I didn't know that the previous leader of Black Spider Tower could be the real Black King. No wonder Black Spider Tower and the Temple of Immortals cooperated so well and worked so hard for the Temple of Immortals. As it turns out, they are the same thing. Black Spider Tower is a branch of the Temple of Immortals!
Black Spider Tower controls the intelligence, assassination, and distribution network of the space pirates. Just like Luo Jinhu said, controlling Black Spider Tower means controlling most of the space pirates. Except for the ambitious bandits such as Bai Xinghe, the other space pirates have no choice but to obey him.
Right now, Bai Xinghe is going to fight Fengyu Zhong. However many trump cards he has, it seems that Fengyu Zhong, who has the support of the Temple of Immortals and Black Spider Tower, has a higher chance of winning.
From the perspective of a Cultivator, of course, I hope that the longer the fight, the bigger the fight, and the more the capability of the two parties will be consumed, the better. It will be best if the two parties can fight each other until neither of them wins.
That is to say, my plan should be to help whichever side is weaker.
For now, I should help Bai Xinghe.
However, Bai Xinghe is not a saint, either. He is a cunning, ruthless Pirate Potentate!
On the surface, he has been abiding by the 'Ten Sword Rules' that Yan Xinjian, the Supreme Pirate of Space, formulated five hundred years ago. But when he is faced with resistance, he will not hesitate to kill anyone, either!
How should I help such an unparalleled bandit? I have to consider carefully.
In any case, before I intervene in the fight, I have to know the details of the fight first and put myself in a relatively critical position …
While Li Yao was deep in thought, a huge explosion suddenly came from the top of his head. When he raised his head, he discovered that a large area of flames had burst out from the superstructure close to the surface of the mine. Then, countless tubes, steel frames, and iron bridges collapsed like flowers falling from the sky!
Li Yao's pupils constricted violently. Like a shadow that was blown away by the wind, he dispersed and condensed on the corridor in front of him that was close to the edge of the pit.
Behind him came a series of squeaking noises. Debris fell on the corridor in midair where he was just now. Many space pirates who were passing through the corridor were smashed into meat paste.
Very soon, the entire corridor in midair was broken. Countless space pirates screamed miserably and fell into the abyss together with the broken bridge.
More than half a minute later, a faint crashing sound came from the depths of the black fog.
"Another battle!"
"Damn it. I thought we were back on Spider Den. I could have a few days of comfort, but who knew that I would still be on tenterhooks all the time? It is even more dangerous than wandering in space! "
"Yesterday, it was Mystic Moon who beat up Taisui. Who is beating who today?"
"I don't know. I guess the pirate gangs that joined Fengyu Zhong and Bai Xinghe are fighting each other!"
Many space pirates were hiding in a corner like Li Yao. They stared at the sky with bloodshot eyes, fearing that the falling debris would hit their heads. They cursed in a low voice.
Li Yao narrowed his eyes. Pushing his eyesight to the limit, he could vaguely see hundreds of Crystal Suit moving between the steel forest, jumping back and forth, and attacking each other.
Now and then, some space pirates were hit in their critical parts and fell into the depths of the mine from thousands of meters in the sky. They crashed into countless corridors and resource transmission tubes along the way, uttering dull noises.
Even if they were not killed in the beginning, they would certainly be killed after falling into the bottom level of the mine that was almost ten thousand meters deep. They would certainly be killed.
Li Yao frowned and thought to himself, In the past, there was only one dominator on Spider Den, and his words were absolute. He was able to maintain the stable order. Now that Fengyu Zhong, the new dominator, has risen, the two of them are competing against each other. Naturally, the order of the past has been torn apart!
The environment is too complicated. The most important thing right now is to fill the Cosmos Rings with assets. Food, water, and materials. Everything needs to be prepared!
Also, the most important thing is to find a decent Crystal Suit. My Mystic Skeleton Battlesuit and Hellsword's Black Horn Battlesuit are too eye-catching to be shown to other people.
Thinking about that, Li Yao rolled his eyes and looked around. Finally, he found a bunch of space pirates hiding in a corner.
There were three of them in total. Judging from their ragged mustard-seed combat suits, they were not very tough.
Li Yao released vague killing intent. He picked up the guy in the middle who seemed to be the leader and slapped him more than ten times without saying anything. Then, he threw the space pirate to the ground brutally and stepped on his chest. He said casually, "Scumbag, this is my first day in Silver Wing City, and I'm going to buy a Crystal Suit for self-defense. Where's the best place to go?"
The space pirates were just the minions of minions. Seeing that Li Yao was so tough, they did not dare argue with him.
The space pirate whose chest was stepped on shrieked, with resentment beaming out of his eyes, "Go to Brother Yi's place! Brother Yi has the best modified Crystal Suit in Silver Wing City. I guarantee that you will be satisfied, senior! "
Half an hour later, Li Yao found the merchant who was called 'Brother Yi' by the space pirates and whose real name was' Niu Youyi 'in the black market of Silver Wing City.
The black market of Silver Wing City was located in the depths of a complicated mine.
Under the dim light, giant holes had been dug out on the wall of the mine. Countless merchants of the black market were hiding inside the holes in boredom.
They were all carrying their mini crystal processors and displaying their goods on the light beams. When the other party was satisfied, they would go to their secret places to trade.
Most of the goods were, of course, magical equipment, Cultivation arts, and materials.
Many merchants of the black market sold the latest news. They also acted as middlemen and introduced all kinds of 'business' to the space pirates.
Niu Youyi was one of them. He sold both magical equipment and information. As long as he had enough money, he would even sell his wife without batting an eye.
"I want a modified Crystal Suit that is at least as good as the 'Fire Dragon Battlesuit'. It's a firepower type. I don't care about the price!"
Li Yao retrieved a silk bag from his Cosmos Ring. He opened it slightly and shot out a ray of brilliance.
One gram of the high-purity crystals inside the bag was enough for a high-level Cultivator to train for a long time. They were the most reliable currency wherever they went.
Niu Youyi glanced at the bag. His eyes were almost red. He couldn't stop smiling. "No problem. Absolutely no problem. Who in the entire Silver Wing City doesn't know that Niu Youyi's modified Crystal Suit is the most complete? Come on. Since you are such a big customer, please come to my warehouse of Crystal Suit and make a good selection! "
Niu Youyi rubbed his hands and bowed. The more they walked, the more secluded they were. Eventually, Li Yao was led to a forsaken mine far away from the black market.
Li Yao opened a rusty iron door. Inside the door was a rather spacious space. It must have been a warehouse where the minerals were temporarily stored.
Right now, dozens of Crystal Suit were placed neatly inside the warehouse.
Although most of the Crystal Suit was damaged and seemed to be secondhand goods, Li Yao observed them with his professional eyes. They had been repaired rather well, and they had been well maintained. They had also been modified in a very practical way.
"Creak."
Niu Youyi closed the door of the warehouse and smiled. "Since you have come all the way to my place, you must have been introduced to me by a friend. You must know that I, Niu Youyi, am famous for my loyalty and honesty in the Silver Wing City. This is our first deal. The price is not important. What matters is that you are satisfied! Take your time. There's no need to rush. "
Li Yao rubbed the surface of the Crystal Suit carefully with his two fingers and inferred the craftsmanship of the Crystal Suit from the painting technique. He asked without turning his head, "I'm told that you sell information? I've been doing business outside and haven't been to Spider Den for two years. Why is it so chaotic recently? It was not like this before! "
Niu Youyi smiled. "You do have keen eyes, sir. Today is different from the past. Spider Den today is no longer the peaceful paradise of space pirates that it used to be! "
"This place is a mess right now. There are small fights every three days and big fights every five days. Many famous space pirates are involved. He was not killed in the sea of stars, but he lost his head in his own nest without knowing what happened! "
"Since you haven't been here for a long time, you do need to know the latest news.
"Of course, chaos has its benefits. Chaos means more business. Only when the old space pirates are dead can new space pirates climb up, right? Judging from your appearance, you must be quite capable yourself. I have a lot of business opportunities for you here. Right now, the big pirate gangs are most fond of foreign space pirates who are strong but have nothing to do with Spider Den. As long as you are willing to risk your life, it is not unusual for you to soar into the sky in one step! "
Li Yao snapped his finger and threw a silver crystal the size of a bean to Niu Youyi's feet. He said coldly, "Tell me the news first. I'll give you another one if you are satisfied.
"As for the business, we can talk about it after you hear the news.
"Cut the crap and get to the point. I know that the Temple of Immortals supported Fengyu Zhong as the new Pirate Potentate after its rise. That's why they were in conflict with Bai Xinghe. The two forces are at loggerheads and may have a war at any moment.
"But I don't understand why Bai Xinghe's problem was not resolved when the Temple of Immortals was just revealed."
Niu Youyi picked up the crystal, put it close to his eyes, and whistled. Then he said unhurriedly, "The Temple of Immortals is indeed impressive, but Boss Bai's methods are not ordinary, either!
"When the Temple of Immortals was exposed last year, all the space pirates were shocked. Many people were not convinced by the Temple of Immortals, too. Boss Bai was one of them. He cursed in many public places!"
Li Yao raised his eyebrow. "The Temple of Immortals was not wary of him?"
Niu Youyi smiled. "That's why Boss Bai is smart. As the saying goes, a barking dog doesn't bite. With Boss Bai's capability and personality, he must be dissatisfied with the Temple of Immortals no matter what. If he did not ask about the Temple of Immortals or even cooperated with them when he was aware of their existence, something must be wrong. Think about it, don't you think?"
Li Yao pondered for a moment and said, "It does make sense."
Niu Youyi said, "Boss Bai pretended to be indignant, but he was forced to cooperate with them because of the overwhelming capability of the enemy. As a result, the enemy's suspicions were more or less allayed.
"Later, with the help of Fengyu Zhong, the Temple of Immortals swallowed a lot of pirate gangs. Boss Bai was bluffing, too. He seemed to be making a lot of trouble, but he did not dare to do anything in private.
"Right. Not exactly. Boss Bai once launched an attack on Fengyu Zhong, too, but he suffered a brutal failure because of the interference of the Temple of Immortals. A lot of good subordinates were killed.
"Since then, Boss Bai has retreated obediently. He did not seem to have done anything except for his stubbornness.
"At that time, all the space pirates thought that Boss Bai was doomed and would be suppressed by Fengyu Zhong.
"But as it turned out, everything was part of Boss Bai's plan!"
