Chapter 731: 731

“Hmm?” The man could hardly believe his ears, his facial fat bouncing as he was obviously scared out of his wits.

“Cultivator, what do you want to do? We have no grievances between us, and everything can be discussed amicably!”

Xue An nodded, “You’re right, that’s also my thought! So I’ll just ask you, who did your Blood Skull sell all those Origin Powers to? And who was that figure just now?”

Upon hearing this, the chairman of the Blood Skull Pirate Guild, a big shot who wielded the power of life and death over hundreds of thousands, broke out into a cold sweat.

“Cultivator, why do you ask this? Moreover, I advise you it’s best to not meddle in this matter!”

Xue An responded indifferently, “Does that mean you don’t wish to speak?”

Just as the chairman was about to speak,

Xue An’s eyes flashed with a dazzling light, and his Divine Sense, vast like the ocean, directly invaded the other’s mind.

Moments later, Xue An’s expression darkened, and he withdrew his Divine Sense.

The chairman’s gaze gradually cleared from confusion, then he stared at Xue An shaking like a leaf.

He was clearly aware of what had just happened.

Xue An remained silent, watching him, because he had already found what he wanted in the chairman’s memory.

Strangely though, many things were shrouded in a thick fog, such as the appearance of that figure from before, which couldn’t be seen clearly.

Xue An understood that someone with great Divine Skills had interfered with the memories of those he had come into contact with.

But no matter the interference, Xue An eventually found the most crucial clue.

“Is it Guiyi Star?”

Hearing Xue An say this, the chairman shook even more severely, a flattering smile involuntarily appearing on his face.

“Great… Sir, now that you’ve found what you want, what about me…?”

A glint of murderous intent flashed in Xue An’s eyes, and the chairman’s head exploded.

Xue An had seen many extremely cruel scenes in his memory.

The deeds of this Blood Skull chairman were downright appalling, as he had even ordered the massacre of several planets inhabited only by mortals.

Moreover, the mere fact that these Blood Skull people dared to plunder the Origin Power of life-bearing planets meant they deserved to die.

Of course, when doing all this, Xue An had already shielded his two daughters from sensing it with their Divine Sense.

After everything was done, Xue An turned his head to look at Xu Gao.

Xu Gao, pale as a ghost, took several steps back, and stammered, “Great… Sir!”

Xue An smiled, “Don’t worry, I won’t kill you! After all, you haven’t done anything bad!”

Xu Gao let out a sigh of relief.

“However, the others…”

At that moment, everything that had happened in the headquarters finally alarmed the entire Pirate Guild.

Countless guards, armed to the teeth, were rushing over.

The young man that Xue An had blasted away earlier had somehow slipped into the crowd and was now shouting furiously with a face full of murderous intent, “These bastards have trespassed on the headquarters, kill them!”

And many who recognized Xu Gao also couldn’t help but curse at him.

“Xu Gao, you actually collude with outsiders against your own people? You traitor!”

“Xu Big-head, you’re dead this time!”

Among these shouts, Xu Gao grew more and more frightened, and even despaired to the point of closing his eyes.

Because at that moment, countless gun barrels had appeared on the surrounding walls and ceilings, all aiming at Xue An and his party.

It’s over, this time we’re done for!

Xu Gao lamented in his heart.

But just then, Xue An said indifferently, “Evil-Seeking Sword, kill!”

Boom!

Countless sword lights appeared around Xue An.

At that very moment, the people opened fire.

High-energy beams combined with the wall-mounted death ray weapons formed an impenetrable barrage that hurtled towards Xue An and the others.

Under such ferocious attacks, a standard Golden Immortal would not be able to hold on for long.

But Xue An didn’t even blink an eyelid.

The sword light had already rushed forward.

Boom.

A loud noise erupted from their clash.

These high-energy rays and other attacks were directly obliterated by the sword light, which then charged toward the enemies.

“No…”

Amidst the agonizing screams, the unstoppable sword light slew the people in front of it and then swept across the entire fortress at incredibly high speed.

In an instant.

Under the power of the Evil-Seeking Sword, everyone in this fortress with blood on their hands was annihilated.

The survivors, pale-faced, gazed at the corpses around them, utterly clueless about what had occurred.

Xu Gao stared dumbfounded.

Xue An, however, just smiled.

“I told you, I won’t kill you! And those who died were all men meant to die!”

But Xu Gao still hadn’t recovered from his shock.

Xue An then led An Yan and the others through the headquarters’ rooms, using the memories of that association leader to find the secret chamber specially used for storing treasures.

This vast storeroom was filled with all the curios and rare treasures he had pilfered.

Xue An didn’t even glance at them, directly storing everything into the Magic Treasures Pavilion.

Then he found the detailed star maps of the surrounding Starry Domains.

This item was the most crucial.

However, the idea of finding a Teleportation Formation had fallen through.

It seemed that the leader of the Blood Skull Pirate Guild had been very cautious.

Because if a Teleportation Formation were built, it would necessarily be mutual, effectively leaving an open window through which one could be attacked from outside.

That’s why he hadn’t built a Teleportation Formation.

But now, whether it existed or not made no difference. With this star map, Xue An could continue on his journey.

Xue An scrutinized the star map, trying to locate the Starry Domain where he had cultivated years ago, but alas, he found that the breadth of this star map was simply insufficient.

This, in turn, spoke to the vastness of the universe.

After a moment, Xue An released the starship, boarded it with his family, and disappeared into the vast starry sky.

Xu Gao watched their departing figures in a daze, somewhat baffled.

He didn’t know whether he was lucky or unfortunate.

But regardless, he had at least managed to save his life.

As for staying in this place, that was not his plan.

After all, this place was about to turn into a dead city, and staying here would only attract disaster.

With this thought, he hastily scavenged some of the remaining items, then procured a brand-new spaceship, ready to leave.

Unexpectedly, Ling Zhu followed him the entire time.

Because her Divine Sense was damaged, she subconsciously regarded Xu Gao as her master.

Xu Gao thought for a moment and then decisively took her with him as he left.

Quickly.

The events that had occurred within the Blood Skull Pirate Guild spread far and wide.

Although located in the fringe Starry Domains,

the Blood Skull Pirate Guild was wiped out overnight, news that still shocked many people.

At this time, Xue An steered the starship toward the destination marked on the star map.

Guiyi Star.
