Chapter 1164: Chapter 1150: Hunter Organization and Nancy

Baiyu looked at these people, frowned, and an invisible spirituality spread at that moment.

Their movements paused.

"Are you interstellar slave traders?"

Baiyu stared into their eyes, his voice like water from a ghostly pool, causing the group to fall into confusion.

The few men were only dazed for a brief moment.

They immediately snapped back to their senses, gazing at Baiyu with extreme ferocity.

"Huh?"

Baiyu was slightly taken aback, apparently surprised that these low tier Martial Artists could regain consciousness so quickly.

"Kid, knowing we’re part of the slave organization, you still dare meddle?"

In an instant.

The group launched an attack on Baiyu directly, a situation where words weren’t exchanged before action, leaving Baiyu somewhat bewildered.

Then.

After a short and rapid bout of fighting sounds erupted.

The group lay on the ground, unconscious.

Baiyu bent down to squat, carefully inspecting their bodies, discovering that their brains, hearts, and other organs contained numerous metallic constructs.

Cyborgs?

Cybernetic humans?

Technology from the Galaxy Imperial is more advanced than that on Canglan Star, hence the technology for cybernetic humans is much more mature but still not widely promoted and banned for civilian use.

"Interstellar Slave Organization, sounds quite strong."

Baiyu frowned, snapped his fingers, and suddenly flames ignited on their bodies, subsequently consuming their flesh, bones, and the cybernetic metal within.

The girl beside froze.

Baiyu turned around, a strange smile appeared on his face, and then the surrounding environment rapidly changed, countless rays of light coalesced, forming a passage.

Swish.

A flash of light.

Baiyu returned to his residence.

The girl remained bewildered, as she landed, seeing Baiyu’s face, she looked like she was staring at a Demon, and dashed away.

But as she reached the doorway, she got bounced back by an invisible barrier.

Sitting on the ground, she paused, then turned her head to Baiyu, forcing a smile on her face, "I think there’s been a misunderstanding between us, right?"

"Yes, so you can explain yourself properly. If your explanation isn’t satisfactory, I’ll end your life quickly without any pain. I’m a good person, unlike those slave traders."

Baiyu smiled kindly.

Clearly.

This girl, appearing only seventeen or eighteen years old, isn’t the kind of deeply experienced veteran. After Baiyu displayed his powerful mysterious abilities, she should be quite cooperative.

...

Soon.

He understood the girl’s situation.

This girl, named Nancy, is roughly a Tier Seven Martial Artist. Her strength is already quite commendable.

She originates from the Hunter Organization.

Of course.

In the entire organization, she’s the only one left, currently being chased by the Interstellar Slave Organization.

This Hunter Organization was once a guild akin to the Adventurer Association, belonging to the bounty hunter form. However, they were unfortunate, as a traitor emerged among their top ranks, resulting in a split, and the two factions have been hunting each other for almost three years.

It’s just that the traitor’s side collaborated with the Interstellar Slave Organization, severely impacting the forces belonging to Nancy’s parents.

Nancy’s parents also died during one such chase.

Those surviving high-ranking members of the organization, some were killed in battle, and many were captured and made slaves.

Now it’s just Nancy alone.

Given Baiyu’s spirituality far exceeded hers, plus he had a Divination Crystal Ball, it was almost certain Nancy wasn’t lying.

"So, you’ve been living in the sewer all this while?"

Baiyu stared at her, she was completely clean, the dust on her body was only due to fleeing before.

Can a sewer be this clean?

"Underneath the sewer, there’s another world. That’s the true underground world of Abaida, very chaotic but quite safe for me."

The girl took a deep breath, her eyes showing some annoyance, "It’s just that now, I can’t go back, as they’re surely guarding below. Moreover, after those people died, the high ranks of the slave organization would surely know the news. I was wondering if I could..."

"You can’t."

Baiyu had already opened the door, smiling, "It’s safe here. If you’re really scared, you can go to the Church.

No one dares to kidnap people at the Church.

You should know that well.

Hence, I won’t see you off, Nancy. Hopefully, we can meet again next time."

Bang.

Baiyu closed the door.

He stretched his body, preparing for meditation to refine his spirituality, having no intention of getting involved in Nancy and those slave organizations’ affairs.

As for the slave organization’s retaliation.

Baiyu believed, when they figure out he had nothing to do with Nancy, they wouldn’t seek retaliation against a powerful unknown Extraordinary.

Of course.

If they’re really coming, Baiyu wouldn’t mind being a messenger of justice.

He also has another reason.

That is, Nancy could clearly seek shelter at any Church within the Life Sect, Scarred Church, or Mechanical God Church.

But she didn’t.

Moreover, she preferred being captured over seeking refuge at the Church.

This suggests she has many other secrets on her, but Baiyu wasn’t interested in exploring them because he already has enough issues to deal with.

If prolonged, not finding the City Lord or unable to ascertain the City Lord’s condition.

Issues will surely arise at Hope City.

Although the six attendants are the highest rulers and loyal enough to the City Lord, Hope City isn’t only populated by them within the Eclipse Moon Realm.

Those once subdued by the City Lord, if unable to get specific information about the City Lord for a long time, will surely develop rebellious intentions.

The length of this time.

Depends on how strong an impression the City Lord has left on them, deterring them for how long.

For now, it seems.

Short-term shouldn’t be an issue.

"Going to visit Alfred tonight could consider joining the Scarred Church side. This action will surely be dangerous, but the strength of Scarred Church is still trustworthy."

These few days of understanding.

Almost made Baiyu realize, other organizations are weaker than the Church.

Even the Forgotten Association, entirely composed of Immortal Clans, can’t rival the Church.

And the Scarred Church, is likely the strongest in combat.

Each follower of the Scar God is adept at fighting, and the Scar God himself famously killed Seven Coils and Bai Xue, and safely retreated under the siege of five Evil Gods, saving a planet of people along the way.

This is just what Baiyu knows.

Even among Divine Spirits, there are differences in strength.

And the different domains they preside over can cause disparities in combat strength.

In other words.

The folks at Scarred Church should be fierce in battles, while regardless of what schemes Abaida or Count Misar plays, solutions ultimately rely on confrontation.

This is a world governed by Martial Artists and the Extraordinary.

The rules are just that simple.
