High Martial Arts: Starting with a Martial Saint Peak Cultivation

Chapter 360 Space Pirates Rampant, Chen Yuan Sets Off on an Expedition

A week passed in the blink of an eye.

At noon that day, a dark crack suddenly appeared in the sky above Yunye Manor.

The gap looked like a cut made in the sky with a finger, its edges swirling with a faint purple light.

The nearby butterflies were startled and scattered, causing ripples to spread across the lake.

next second.

The shadowy figure slowly emerged from the crack.

With its wings spread wide, it blotted out the sky.

It carried more than a dozen figures on its back, which were Chen Yuan and his group.

Chen Yuan wore a moon-white robe today, with a dark gold sash tied around her waist, making her look refreshing and lazy.

The shadow landed smoothly and folded its wings.

Chen Yuan was the first to leap down, landing steadily on the bluestone slabs by the lake.

The others followed closely behind.

A flash of light appeared on the shadowy creature, and it shrank back into the shape of a half-grown cub, swishing its tail as it approached Chen Yuan's feet.

"Home is so comfortable..."

Chen Yuan stretched out a big yawn, and his shoulder and back joints made a crisp sound.

"After shopping all morning, it's time to take a break."

He stretched his neck and was about to go back inside for a nap.

Or let Chen brew a pot of spiritual tea and sit by the lake for an afternoon.

But before he could even take two steps...

The communication bracelet on my wrist suddenly lit up.

A crisp notification sound rang out in the quiet manor.

Chen Yuan paused and looked down.

The name that popped up on the screen was Fu Xingyuan.

He raised an eyebrow slightly.

"Fu Xingyuan? What do you want with me at this time?"

He muttered to himself.

"I haven't taken any Spirit Gathering Pills lately, nor have I made any noise."

"The spiritual energy on Jade Flower Star is not the problem, so this guy's sudden phone call is a bit strange."

Chen Yuan stared at the bracelet for two seconds, then reached out and tapped to connect.

The light screen pops up.

Fu Xingyuan's figure appeared on the screen.

Behind him was a huge transparent wall, outside which was the deep starry sky and the silvery-white Star Harbor Corridor Bridge.

Chen Yuan recognized the place.

That was the administrative headquarters of the starport outside Yuhua Star.

Fu Xingyuan was wearing a dark blue uniform today, the epaulets gleaming slightly under the lights.

His face looked tense, and his eyes were still a bit pale from lack of rest.

"Special Envoy Chen, I'm so sorry, I hope I haven't disturbed you?"

Fu Xingyuan apologized as soon as he spoke, his tone very humble, as if afraid of displeasing Chen Yuan.

Chen Yuan shook his head, his expression indifferent.

"No, I just happened to be back."

He asked directly, "What is it?"

Fu Xingyuan hesitated for less than half a second before speaking quickly.

"Special Envoy Chen, this is what happened."

He took a deep breath, suppressing his surging emotions.

"Something has happened to the Qingyuan Star System, which is under the jurisdiction of our Eastern Star Region."

"A group of space pirates known as the Black Wind Gang had been roaming the border area for over a hundred years. They were severely damaged by the Imperial Army and disappeared for many years."

"But just a few days ago, they suddenly resurfaced and began to plunder merchant ships and mining planets in the Qingyuan Star System."

"The Qingyuan Star System has already dispatched multiple batches of troops to encircle and suppress them, but the enemy's whereabouts are elusive, causing our army to suffer repeated losses, including a significant number of warships and personnel."

As Fu Xingyuan finished speaking, a clear look of anger appeared on his face.

"The leader of the Black Wind Gang is named Black Fiend, and he is quite powerful."

"This person was originally a mid-stage Eternal True God, but due to being wanted and constantly evading capture, his foundation was damaged and his realm dropped."

"But not long ago, he found an opportunity from somewhere and broke through to the mid-stage of Eternal True God, and his realm is now stable."

"In the Qingyuan Star System, there is currently no powerful expert at the level of an Eternal True God to stop him."

Chen Yuan listened quietly, his expression unchanged.

Fu Xingyuan looked up at him, his tone becoming increasingly earnest.

"Lord Zhen Dong is stationed at the Eastern Star Region headquarters, which is too far from the Qingyuan Star System. Even if we rush here at full speed, it will take quite a few days."

"The four lords, including Envoy Xiao Zhenyu and Envoy Lei Zhenyu, have all gone to explore the secret realm in the City Martial Star System. They won't be back for a while."

"The governor of the Qingyuan Star System had no other choice but to report the request for help to me."

"After much thought, I realize that only you in the entire vicinity of Yuhua Star can resolve this matter."

"Special Envoy Chen...could we ask for your assistance?"

As Fu Xingyuan spoke, his eyes were filled with anticipation, yet also tinged with trepidation.

Chen Yuan did not answer immediately.

He lowered his eyelids and began to calculate rapidly in his mind.

"I knew it, my intuition was spot on."

"Fu Xingyuan took the initiative to come to me, so he must have something to ask of me."

"Black Wind Gang... that name sounds familiar. I think I've heard someone mention it somewhere before."

"A mere band of space pirates, the strongest of whom is only at the mid-stage of Eternal True God, do they think they're worthy of my attention?"

He subtly pressed down the corners of his mouth.

"But then again, the Qingyuan Star System is right next to the Yuhua Star."

"This group really knows how to pick their timing; they waited until Xiao Yuanshan and the others had left before showing up."

"The King of Zhendong is far away, and the four regional envoys are all in the secret realm. There is indeed no one else nearby."

"I am, after all, an honorary special envoy of the Canglan Empire; it wouldn't be right for me to refuse under these circumstances..."

Another thought crossed Chen Yuan's mind.

"Perfect timing, I've pretty much gotten tired of exploring Yuhua Star these past few days."

"Let's take a trip to the Qingyuan Star System, just to relax and clear our heads."

"Besides, that pirate leader is at least a mid-stage Eternal True God."

"It's a bit weak, but it's better than nothing. Let's use this guy to practice."

He slowly raised his eyes and nodded to Fu Xingyuan.

"Can."

Fu Xingyuan was clearly taken aback.

He had thought Chen Yuan would make some excuses, or at least offer some conditions.

I didn't expect them to agree so readily.

"Special Envoy Chen, you...you've agreed?"

Fu Xingyuan's voice rose a few decibels, and his face was instantly filled with joy.

"That's wonderful! That's absolutely wonderful!"

He felt as if a huge weight had been lifted from his heart, and he felt much more relaxed.

"This Special Envoy Chen is really easy to talk to."

He sighed inwardly.

"Fortunately, Special Envoy Chen did not go to the City Martial Star System with Lord Xiao and the others, otherwise I really wouldn't know what to do this time."

Fu Xingyuan quickly bowed in greeting.

"Thank you, Special Envoy Chen!"

"As long as you intervene, the Black Wind Gang won't be able to cause any trouble!"

"If this succeeds, I will certainly recommend you to the Empire for credit!"

Chen Yuan nodded slightly, his expression remaining calm.

"There's no need to ask for credit."

He raised his chin slightly, his tone neither hurried nor slow.

"There's no time to lose, I'll be leaving shortly."

"I'll talk to you in detail when we get to Singapore."

Fu Xingyuan immediately replied, "Yes! I'll go to the outer harbor and wait for you!"

After he finished speaking, he bowed again.

Chen Yuan tapped his finger, and the call ended.

The screen flickered in mid-air, like a thin mist blown away by the wind.

The surroundings fell silent again.

Only the water plants by the lake swayed gently in the wind, making a very faint rustling sound.

The shadowy figure moved closer to Chen Yuan and tilted its head back.

"Boss, are we going to fight space pirates?"

Its tail slapped the ground repeatedly, and flames of excitement ignited in its vertical pupils.

Chen Yuan looked down at it.

"A bunch of ants, at most only at the mid-stage of Eternal True God."

He spoke casually, as if he were talking about what to have for dinner.

"I'm tired of staying on Yuhua Star anyway, might as well go out for a stroll."

After hearing this, Youying became even more excited.

"Then what are we waiting for! Let's go now!"

As it was about to leap into the sky, Chen Yuan raised his hand and pressed its head down.

"What's the rush? We're not going to steal food."

He turned to look at Chen Tianling, Chen Yi, and the others.

"Did you hear everything?"

Chen Tianling nodded.

"I heard you. Go to the Qingyuan Star System to fight space pirates."

Chen Yuan looked at him and added another sentence.

"Hide your cultivation level well, don't expose it."

"Just like before, it's enough to maintain the superficial level of cultivation."

Chen Tianling and the ten Holy Dragon Guards responded simultaneously.

"clear."

Chen Yuan thought about it for a moment and then estimated it in his mind.

"With my current concealment techniques, as long as I don't release it intentionally, even the Supreme Ancestor of the Canglan Empire wouldn't be able to see through it."

"Besides, a mere gang of space pirates isn't worth me revealing anything about."

He said no more, and a thought crossed his mind.

An ancient and immense aura surged forth from his infinite storage space.

Followed by.

A silver-white flying boat appeared out of thin air above the lake.

At this moment, the boat is about a hundred feet long, with smooth and heavy lines.

Its surface is covered with dense star runes, emitting a deep luster.

It is the Star Sea Divine Ship, which has been upgraded to the Supreme Grade.

Compared to the previous one, this starship is more exquisite.

The star markings on the bow are clearer, the spiritual patterns on both sides are more intricate, and even the thin membrane of light covering the hull is much thicker.

Before that supreme treasure's aura could even dissipate...

Chen Yuan cast another spell.

The light on the surface of Shenzhou quickly dimmed.

Within a few breaths, the terrifying sense of oppression vanished completely.

The Starship has returned to its original appearance.

From the outside, it looks like a high-quality flying treasure.

"Alright, get on the boat."

Chen Yuan waved to the crowd and walked towards the Starry Sea Divine Ship first.

The hatch slid open silently.

Chen Yuan stepped inside.

Upon entering, the view suddenly opens up.

The space inside the Shenzhou was nearly a third larger than before, with a higher dome, wider passageways, and softer spiritual patterns on the walls.

The floor beneath my feet was covered with a layer of dark, warm jade, which felt slightly warm to the touch.

A very faint sandalwood scent wafted in the air, calming the mind.

"After the upgrade, things are definitely different."

Chen Yuan sat down in the rest area and tapped his fingers lightly on the armrest.

"The space is larger, and the defense is much stronger."

"Not to mention the speed."

he thought.

"The key is that if this ship encounters danger now, it can be used as a defensive treasure. Even a Supreme Realm expert would find it difficult to break through while hiding inside."

The passengers boarded the ship one by one, and the cabin door closed behind them.

Chen Yuan used his divine sense to manipulate the core.

The Starship slowly ascended into the sky, like a dark golden fish, silently passing through the clouds and flying away from Yuhua Star.

.........

A short while later.

Outside Yuhua Star, on the east side of the Star Harbor.

This starport, suspended in orbit, is entirely silver-white, resembling a giant, blooming metal flower.

At the outer harbor berth, Fu Xingyuan and his entourage had been waiting for some time.

Behind him stood six Starport officials in dark uniforms, all standing ramrod straight, not daring to utter a sound.

"Commander-in-Chief, is Special Envoy Chen really coming?"

One of the young attendants couldn't help but ask in a low voice.

Be careful what you say.

Fu Xingyuan didn't turn his head, his voice extremely low.

"Since Special Envoy Chen has agreed, he will definitely come."

"You all better be alert and don't be disrespectful in front of the special envoy."

"Yes."

The attendant shrank back, not daring to say another word.

A while later.

A silver-white flying boat silently sailed in from the distant starry sky.

The bow of the ship cut through the thin stardust, leaving a very fine golden trail.

"They're here!"

Fu Xingyuan's eyes lit up, and he immediately straightened his clothes and took a few steps toward the front of the berth.

The Shenzhou spacecraft docked smoothly at its berth, like a soft feather landing on the water.

The hatch opened.

Chen Yuan walked out slowly, followed by Chen Tianling, You Ying, and others.

Fu Xingyuan quickly stepped forward, bowed, and clasped his hands in greeting.

"Greetings, Special Envoy Chen!"

The officials behind him also bowed their heads in unison.

"Greetings, Special Envoy Chen!"

Chen Yuan waved his hand.

"No need for formalities."

He looked at Fu Xingyuan and said directly, "Send me the information and location of the Black Wind Gang."

Fu Xingyuan didn't dare to dawdle and immediately operated the communication bracelet a few times.

"Special Envoy Chen, the information and approximate activity coordinates have been sent to you."

He paused, then added.

"Governor Lan Qingliu of the Qingyuan Star System has received the message and is awaiting your arrival."

Chen Yuan glanced down at the bracelet.

A dense array of coordinate points and several briefings came into view.

He quickly scanned it.

"Okay, I understand."

Chen Yuan nodded and turned to walk towards the Starry Sea Divine Ship.

"I'm gone."

He kept walking, leaving Fu Xingyuan with only his back view.

Fu Xingyuan opened his mouth, wanting to say a few more words of farewell.

Seeing Chen Yuan's decisive and efficient demeanor, he swallowed his words back.

The hatch closed.

The Starship took off again, and in just a few breaths, it sailed into the vast sea of ​​stars.

Fu Xingyuan stood by the berth, gazing in the direction where the Shenzhou spacecraft had disappeared, and remained silent for a long time.

An official next to him sighed softly.

"Special Envoy Chen is too efficient in his actions."

Fu Xingyuan nodded slowly, his eyes full of admiration.

"That's what you call a strong person."

"No hesitation, just go."

He turned to look at the crowd.

"Alright, everyone back to your posts."

"With Special Envoy Chen here, the Black Wind Gang is no longer a threat."

"........."

Everyone responded and dispersed.

Inside the Starship.

Chen Yuan leaned back in the large, soft chair, idly flipping through the documents sent by Fu Xingyuan.

Chen Tianling stood to the side and also glanced at it a few times.

"The Black Wind Gang, led by Black Fiend, mainly operates in the southeastern route of the Qingyuan Star System."

Chen Tianling read the text on the screen.

"The most recent appearance was on a cargo route near a planet called Chiba Star."

"They robbed two caravans, sank three patrol ships belonging to the garrison, and killed every single soldier inside."

He frowned.

"These guys have some nerve."

Chen Yuan chuckled.

"Just a bunch of desperados."

He put down the documents, picked up his teacup, and took a sip.

"They're just taking advantage of the fact that the Qingyuan Star System doesn't have an Eternal True God in charge right now."

"Once we get there, they'll know what it means to have bitten off more than they can chew."

The shadowy figure appeared out of nowhere and jumped into the empty space next to Chen Yuan.

"Boss, let me go up and tear them to pieces later!"

It grinned, revealing two rows of sharp teeth.

"A bunch of small fry, not even enough to fill my teeth!"

Chen Yuan glanced at it.

"Take it easy, don't scare them to death the moment you meet them."

He put down his teacup, a hint of amusement flashing in his eyes.

"Once we arrive, let's check the situation first."

"If that Black Fiend really breaks through to the mid-stage of Eternal True God, then I'll leave him to warm up."

Shadow's eyes lit up instantly.

"Don't worry, boss! I promise I'll only beat him half to death, the rest is up to you!"

Chen Tianling glanced at it speechlessly.

"You, an invincible mid-stage Eternal True God at the same level, are actually smug about defeating another mid-stage Eternal True God."

"So what's wrong!"

The shadowy figure puffed out its chest.

"I'm hiding my true strength because of what my elders taught me. I can pretend to be weak when I'm stronger than others, so why can't I bully people?"

Chen Tianling opened his mouth, but for a moment he didn't know how to respond.

Chen Yuan was amused by these two clowns.

"Alright, stop arguing."

He raised his hand and pointed out the porthole.

"Once we reach the Qingyuan Star System, you'll have plenty of room to cause trouble."

Outside the porthole.

The Starship is heading towards the outside of the Jade Light Star System, where Jade Flower Star is located.

The dense array of stars seemed to be parted by a giant hand, rapidly retreating to both sides.

The direction of the Qingyuan Galaxy is just ahead...
