Chapter 476

As the overall commotion died down and the warriors started to retreat, Peter and Fatima came close to their father.

“Father, what happened?” Peter and Fatima walked behind Weerlig, couldn’t help but ask.

“We were trying to kill Leona. We thought that the experts of the three forces would disturb us. We didn’t expect that all had the same purpose. Then, we joined hands to fight. What a pity the hermit had dissolved our attacks. He even hurt us!” Weerlig took a deep breath, his face strange. “I didn’t know that the three forces had an internal problem like that. They seized the chance when darkness fell on the Heaven Punishment to attack Leona.”

“Hahaha, when so many warriors came like that I was worried. But now I feel more secure.”

At the moment, the Heaven Punishment had three forces, including the Nine Star Chamber of Commerce, the Dark Firmament Divine Nation, and the Underworld League. However, none of them was strong enough to resist the local forces of the Heaven Punishment.

If they joined hands, Even Weerlig couldn’t keep the star map, let alone carrying the expedition.

However, after this battle, he realized that the three big forces didn’t like each other. They would never unite. They were different from his group. At the critical moment when the latter had to face the three forces, they would unite without any barrier of grudges.

Moreover, the hermitic expert of the Heaven Punishment was on their side, apparently. Thus, Weerlig was confident that he could engage in the war with the three forces.

“Leylin was also there, in that compound from where the commotion started, I saw him. Many others also noticed and the hermit did nothing to him. Perhaps he has some connection with Leona or maybe even that hermit?…” intervened Peter, narrating what he had seen, Peter’s face was serious.

“Father, This guy is a dangerous person. He can be a two-bladed sword. If we can use him, he will be a tremendous support. But if we make a mistake… I’m afraid the damage would be doubled.”

Weerlig listened to his son seriously, his face became solemn.

“That hermit has been protecting our Land of God Punishment even since I was just a small pirate. There have been innumerable rumours and myths about this person but even I was not sure about their actuality but today I know that even I am just a frog in the well.”

“If there is really a relationship then that kid isn’t easy to deal with but I have a feeling that’s not the case. How could he have any connection with her if, even I have no idea who this person is? Maybe it’s Leona? This Leylin has briefly interacted with the Divine Nation so that’s probable. Little Fatima, what do you think?”

“As long as I’m here, he won’t consider us enemies. Father, if we can find the new star area and give him a star life, I think he will appreciate us, and it will make him on our side honestly,” said Fatima solemnly.

“I strongly suggest you to not make an enemy of him. Father, I am sure you know he’s not an average person.”

“Yes, I understand. I don’t have any intention to go against him. I just don’t want to be plotted against and die miserably.”

“Don’t worry, he’ll keep his end of the deal, I am sure of that.”

“Well then I won’t be stingy either.” Weerlig said with a stern face.

“Thank you, father,” smiled Fatima

“Where is he though?”

“He disappeared as the commotion died down. Although I was keeping a close eye on him, I still couldn’t figure out where he went. This kid is truly mysterious,” sighed Peter.

“He will reappear, maybe when he does it would be a surprise for everyone else.” Fatima mumbled to herself.

Blue Demon’s Headquarter, Heaven Punishment City.

The three leaders of the pirates, Weerlig, Jashin, Barrette were gathering together with more than ten other pirate leaders. They were all solemn as they were going to decide whether they should leave or stay in the Heaven Punishment City.

“We must go. If we delay, Derrick Simons will be here soon.” Weerlig slammed his brows together. “He is different from others. Derrick is at the Third Sky of Original God Realm. You guys all know his perilous features. It has been years since the Nine Star Chamber of Commerce started thriving under his regime. His mighty force is the peak of the entire Raging Flame Star Area!”

Everybody fell into silence.

Derrick’s reputation was widespread in the Raging Flame Star Area. At the Third Sky of Original God Realm, he was the well-know zenith of the Raging Flame Star Area, which had the same meaning as the word ‘invincible.’

When such a character suddenly came to the Heaven Punishment City, no one in their group was able to resist. They could be killed instantly right when they saw him.

Weerlig’s group didn’t think that the hermit in the Heaven Punishment City would risk his life to battle Derrick for them, either.

More importantly, no one knew the real intention of that hermit or if he was an equal opponent to Derrick or not.

They also didn’t want to entrust their lives in the hands of someone they didn’t know.

“Anyway, when we leave the Heaven Punishment City, they won’t be afraid of anything. They would come to take the star map. Alavid, Shane Varet, Adidas are all at the Second Sky of Original God Realm. They haven’t taken action yet because they are afraid of that mysterious hermit. They followed the rules of the Heaven Punishment City. But when we leave the Heaven Punishment City, we’re not sure if that hermit will be able to take care of us or not. It will be big trouble for us then,” said a leader of the pirates.

Alavid, Shane Varet, Adidas all represent a significant force in the Dark Firmament Divine Nation, Underworld League and Nine Star Chamber of Commerce respectively and they are all present in the Heaven Punishment City.

This is also why they haven’t come to a conclusion yet.

They were all at the Second Sky of Original God Realm, the same as Weerlig. However, their real competencies would be one level higher.

Any force of the said three forces was a big threat to them. Once they joined hands, the chance for the pirates to escape was tiny.

“We can’t deal with Alavid, Shane Varet, Adidas let alone if Derrick Simons came here as well. We need to leave immediately. What do you think?” Weerlig contemplated for a while then gave a low shout.

“I have no idea. I agree to leave.”

“Staying here would only lead to our downfall.”

“We can’t entrust ourselves to the hermit, his motivation for actions and reasoning is beyond our understanding. Our best bet is to leave.”

“I think so as well.”

“Me too.”

Jashin and Barrette the two experts at the Original God Realm nodded and expressed that they wanted to leave as soon as possible.

When the Original God Realm experts all came to a conclusion, the other’s ideas became trivial.

“Alright, we should prepare now. I know you are almost finished with our arrangement. We should leave early. We can’t delay it any longer,” Weerlig took a deep breath and comforted people. “The three forces don’t get along well. They won’t really unite and they aren’t familiar with the forbidden lands outside the Land of God Punishment. And we’ve united to fight and protect our lives. We know the forbidden lands outside the Land of God Punishment like the back of our hands. This is our territory. Once we leave the Land of God Punishment and enter the forbidden lands in outer space, shouldn’t we be able to cut them off?”

Hearing him, everybody calmed down. Even the ones who didn’t agree with them had nodded their heads.

It’s true that the land outside the Land of God Punishment was a matrix of forbidden areas. Many of them were hazardous. People who weren’t familiar with the conditions could be punished with fatal consequences.

Even if they got the Original God Realm cultivation base, it wouldn’t make them an exception.

As long as they could leave the Land of God Punishment, they could use their information of the surrounding topography to hide safely. Or they could even lure their opponents into the most dangerous area of the forbidden lands.

“We’ve been well-prepared!”

Some had arranged everything several days ago. Seeing the others agree with the escape plan, they became excited, preparing to get out of the Land of God Punishment.

Shortly after, war chariots flew across the sky of the Heaven Punishment City like countless locusts swarming the place. It looked magnificent indeed.Those war chariots were in different styles, colors, and shapes. The flags they had indicated their forces. They hovered neatly in the air. No battle. No quarrel. They seemed to be waiting for something.

The most ruthless and bloodthirsty pirates of the Heaven Punishment City soared up into the sky from different corners and alleys of the Heaven Punishment City. They aligned with the thick cloud of war chariots, checking their formation for the last mobilization before carrying out the operation.

Inside the city, Alavid, Carthew, Shabe, and Adidas frowned as they looked at the commotion in the sky. They exchanged thoughts using Soul Consciousness.

Not long afterward, their teams started to head to the Headquarter of the Blue Demon Pirates as they had planned. After two hours, experts of the three forces appeared on the spacious street outside the Blue Demon’s base.

Many shops in the Heaven Punishment City were closed due to the dangerous situation of the city.

Warriors who didn’t belong to the three big forces came to the Heaven Punishment City to also trade their goods. However, the person was not showing his or her face.

The packed street in the past became isolated. They couldn’t even see a shadow.

Everybody realized that a big catastrophe would happen in the Heaven Punishment City shortly. People who didn’t want to get involved in this mess and get killed fled unknowingly all the away.

Two days ago, people from three forces met around the massive abyss where Leona disappeared, currently it had no dark aura anymore. It seemed that Leona had disappeared from the Land of God Punishment. No one was able to sense her soul energy fluctuation so no one could know whether she was still in the Land of God Punishment or not.

Not being able to see her made people uneasy and anxious. Since they all knew that Carthew and Leona were close, they weren’t so sure if they had contacted discreetly or not. Thus, after Carthew had arrived, everyone frowned, saying nothing.

“You came on time. The pirates are going to leave the Land of God Punishment. What do you think?” Alavid asked after pondering for a while.

“I don’t know. Anyway, I won’t attack them inside the city. But if you guys want to attack after they’ve left the Heaven Punishment City, I have no objections.” Carthew smiled, his visage calm and natural. He acted as if he didn’t care about the star map.

“What do you think?” Alavid looked at Shane and Adidas

“I’m sure that we can’t attack them in the Heaven Punishment City,” Shane wore a ferocious and malignant face. “I mean, we’ll give them time to leave the city. Then, we will see if that hermit still wants us to stop. Then, we will discuss again. What do you think?”

“I have the same idea,” laughed Adidas. “That person in the city is too strong. I don’t want to enrage him. If he doesn’t interfere, those pirates can’t do anything.”

“Alright, we will let them leave the city. First, we will kill the pirates. Then, you guys should depend on your own competences!” Alavid agreed immediately.

The powerful characters of the three big forces exchanged looks. They immediately agreed. They planned that after Weerlig and his people had left the Heaven Punishment City, they would start to attack fiercely. After they were done with the pirates, they would compete against each other to get the star map.

As they had determined their plan, they didn’t talk more, scattering and discussing with their own people for a detailed plan.

Rumble Rumble Rumble!

After one hour, battleships and war chariots in the sky roared, rocketing through the atmosphere, heading to the star area outside the Land of God Punishment.

The clouds of battleships and chariots didn’t line up. It diverged into so many different paths. They scattered like schools of fishes swimming to different river branches. In outer space, they changed their direction, heading to different regions. The energy crystals triggered at once. They flashed like lightning strikes in the sky.

They seemed to know the plan of the three big forces, not wanting to give them a chance to catch them all at once. That’s why they decided to use this plan.

Indeed, seeing the pirates flee away was nice. Each flow included pirates, battleships and war chariots from different organizations, the pursuing team was perplexed. They didn’t know which flow they should pursue or which battleship or war chariot Weerlig was hiding in.

Having no other option around, they could only diverge and chase after the pirates. They tried to sense the strongest auras among the others.

For the time being, people saw lights shooting across the sky of the Land of God Punishment like the rainbows. They all zoomed to the horizon, tearing the dome of the high sky.

The war which would shake the entire Raging Flame Star Area slowly began at this moment.
