406: Chapter 407 The Interstellar Court's Bounty: A Sky-Blotting Star Fleet!

Densely packed black barrels simultaneously spat out blinding blue energy beams. The beams wove into a death net with no blind spots, heading straight for the crowd.

Bai Li waved her silk fan, her purple demonic power transforming into a shield. The beams crashed into the shield, making dull explosive sounds. The demonic power shield was quickly covered in cracks, teetering on the edge of collapse. The power of the water drop spaceship's weapons far exceeded the Spells of ordinary Cultivators.

Chu Ling gripped her ice sword, preparing to step forward and face it head-on.

Su Yang remained expressionless and took a direct step forward.

His hands hung casually at his sides. He suddenly raised his right leg and stomped heavily onto the pure white metal floor in front of him.

Boom!

The violent physical force was like a magnitude 12 earthquake, instantly spreading through the entire cabin. The pure white metal floor rolled violently like waves. The powerful shockwave spread rapidly along the walls.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Dense explosions came from inside the walls. Hundreds of black barrels hidden within the structure were reduced to scrap metal by the sheer force. The barrels snapped and fell, emitting pungent black smoke. The blue beams lost their power source and instantly dissipated in mid-air.

With a single stomp, he had disabled all the weapon Systems.

The silver-haired girl's starry eyes spun rapidly. The red mechanical vertical eye on her forehead glowed intensely.

"Long-range weapons damaged. Initiating Melee Annihilation Mode." An emotionless mechanical voice echoed through the cabin.

The silver-haired girl's petite body instantly turned into a streak of silver lightning. Her forearms flipped outward, popping out two silver light blades emitting high-frequency shockwaves. The light blades sliced through the air with a sharp whistle, aiming straight for Su Yang's throat.

Her speed was unbelievably fast, even exceeding the speed of sound.

Su Yang stood still with his hands in his casual pants pockets, not moving an inch.

The silver light blades slashed fiercely at Su Yang's neck.

Clang!

Sparks flew everywhere. The high-frequency vibrating silver light blades couldn't even scratch Su Yang's skin. The counter-force erupted instantly, and both light blades snapped in the middle, shattering into countless fragments on the floor.

A hint of shock flashed in the silver-haired girl's eyes as her body was knocked back repeatedly by the force.

Su Yang pulled out his right hand, his figure moving like a phantom. He grabbed the silver-haired girl's slender neck and lifted her into the air.

The red mechanical vertical eye on the girl's forehead flashed frantically, quickly condensing a ball of destructive red death-light, less than an inch from Su Yang's forehead. The dangerous heat distorted the surrounding air.

Su Yang reached out with his left hand, his two fingers like iron pincers, accurately pinching the red mechanical vertical eye.

He pulled hard.

Crack.

Su Yang ripped the red mechanical vertical eye right off the girl's forehead. Several transparent neural tubes connected to the mechanical eye snapped, spraying white coolant.

Su Yang closed his fingers, crushing the mechanical eye into powder. He casually tossed it into the air.

Without the mechanical eye, the silver-haired girl's body convulsed violently. The starry patterns in her eyes quickly faded, eventually turning into normal silver pupils.

"Warning... System crash... Forcing disconnection of biological link..."

The mechanical voice grew weaker and weaker until it finally disappeared completely.

The coldness on the silver-haired girl's face receded, replaced by an expression of pain. She gripped Su Yang's arm tightly and coughed a few times. Her voice changed into a clear, youthful girl's voice.

"Let... let go..."

Su Yang let go. The silver-haired girl slumped onto the pure white floor, gasping for air. She rubbed her reddened neck and looked at the man before her with fear in her eyes. The combat System in her mind had been completely destroyed; now, only biological instinct remained.

"Explain the bounty. Don't leave out a single word." Su Yang looked down at her, his tone indifferent.

The silver-haired girl swallowed hard, her voice trembling: "The bounty was issued by the Interstellar Court. In the vast Star Domain, the Pure Yang Body is a legendary, top-tier Physique. It can be used to refine Divine Pills that allow one to break through the limits of their Lifespan, and it's also the only key to opening several ancient divine ruins."

The girl took a deep breath and continued, "The Interstellar Court has offered a bounty of one hundred million Star Coins, plus a life-sustaining planet rich in resources. Anyone who can bring back the living person of the Pure Yang Body, or a fresh head, can claim the reward. Countless Star Hunters have taken the mission and are searching the entire Universe for the target. My ship just happened to capture the scent of Yang Qi, which is why I landed here."

Mary flapped her bat wings and landed, putting her hands on her hips.

"One hundred million Star Coins? That sounds like a lot. But wanting Su Yang's head for money is just a dream. No matter how many come, they'll all die." Mary's tight leather suit accentuated her explosive curves, her face full of disdain.

Chu Ling put away her ice sword and said coldly, "Star Hunters? The title sounds impressive, but their strength is at this pathetic level."

Qin Xueji stepped forward, her high heels clicking as she surveyed the cabin.

"Boss, the technological level of this water drop spaceship far exceeds the understanding of the Secular World. Both the materials and the propulsion System are priceless treasures." Qin Xueji gave a professional assessment.

Su Yang glanced around.

"The ship belongs to Su Yang now. You, be responsible for piloting it." Su Yang pointed at the silver-haired girl on the floor and gave a direct command.

The girl's face was pale, and she didn't dare refuse. Facing a monster who could crush a mechanical eye with his bare hands, resistance only meant death.

"As you command." The girl scrambled up and walked to the center of the cabin.

She pressed both hands against the pure white floor. A layer of green light spread from her palms, quickly covering the entire cabin. The alarm lights, which had turned red, reverted to a soft white glow. A massive transparent holographic screen lit up in front of them.

"What is the destination?" the girl turned to ask.

"Leave these ruins and go outside." Su Yang looked at the holographic screen.

The water drop spaceship emitted a faint humming sound. There was no violent vibration or roar of engines. The ship instantly took off from the circular platform.

Moving at extreme speed, it turned into a streak of silver light and crashed right through the thick rock layer at the top of the Spaceport.

The rocks shattered, and the ship was completely unhindered, without even a single scratch left on it.

Passing through the long, dark rock layer, the water drop spaceship burst through the surface and re-entered the dark red sky of the Netherworld.

The interior of the ship was very stable; one couldn't even feel a hint of turbulence. The holographic screen displayed the scene outside.

The blood-colored full moon hung high, and the wilderness was deathly silent.

Just as the ship rose into the high sky.

Blinding red warning symbols suddenly flashed on the holographic screen. A piercing alarm echoed through the cabin.

"Warning! Radar has detected a large-scale space jump reaction! An unidentified fleet has appeared ahead!" the silver-haired girl reported loudly, her hands operating the control panel with lightning speed.

Su Yang stood with his hands behind his back and walked to the holographic screen.

In the dark red sky ahead, space rippled violently like water.

Hundreds of massive black space portals appeared out of thin air.

One after another, massive triangular black warships emerged slowly from the space portals. The surfaces of the warships were covered in menacing metal ramming prows, their muzzles glowing with dangerous red light. Each warship was a thousand meters long, like steel behemoths.

A full three hundred Interstellar Warships blotted out the sky, completely blockading the entire heavens. Huge shadows were cast on the ground, plunging the entire Netherworld into darkness.

At the very center of the fleet was a Super Mothership ten thousand meters long.

A massive holographic projection was cast from above the mothership, reflecting in the night sky like a deity looking down on all living beings.

In the projection was an alien creature with four arms and a face covered in green scales. Its eyes were filled with endless greed and cruelty.

"Target locked. Coordinates confirmed."

The green-scaled creature made a piercing sound. The voice, broadcast through the warship's amplification equipment, was like rolling thunder, echoing throughout the Netherworld.

"Hand over the Pure Yang Body! Otherwise, a simultaneous volley from the main cannons will blast you and this wretched planet into cosmic dust!"

As the words fell, hundreds of dark muzzles of the main cannons aimed in unison at the water drop spaceship in mid-air. Destructive energy gathered frantically at the muzzles, and the surrounding space began to collapse and shatter.
