Chapter 280: An Encounter, The Starsung Commerce Alliance

.....

Whoooom~!

After the residual winds from the blast made it to the Galactic Armada, everyone on board waited for the catastrophic results to be displayed.

Following the dispersion of the Gamma clouds, something utterly unexplainable was shown to all those in the Galactic Armada!

"He's alive..." The Captain softly murmured to himself. He fixed his blue cap before walking away from the Central Hub.

"Captain, Sir! Where are you going!?" His second in command snapped out of his stupor just in time to shout these words.

The Captain turned his head behind him for half an instant, then he said, "If the Crimson Usurper was able to survive that attack, then his power has already surpassed the limits of the Early Quasar Lord Realm. I must deal with this myself-"

"Wait just a minute, Captain Hao. You are aware that we are on board, no?"

A man's voice sounded out from behind a corner of the Central Hub as an extravagantly dressed man approached the Captain. Along with him was an icy-faced woman with long hair tied into a bun using an Ice Phoenix pin.

"Sir Lin Qiang! You know that we would never have someone as distinguished as yourself and Miss Mu bother with this small trifle of ours!"

The Captain responded in a respectful tone, trying his best to maintain his composure before an Envoy of the Starsung Commerce. There was also the princess of the same organization—Mu Mu, someone who was widely known as one of the most talented females in the surrounding galaxies.

Starsung Commerce Association.

It was an organization that held a good amount of influence in over sixty galaxies, and it was also known for the large amount of military force they had at their disposal.

It was a military force that they managed to acquire through the money they obtained from selling various luxury goods.

But regardless of that fact, Lin Qiang forced himself to put on a wide, gentle smile as he stretched out his hands in an arch shape.

He was clearly indicating the princess to go before him. But it didn't seem like she cared one bit what he wanted as she passed by the other side of him.

This slight of hers resulted in a vein forming on Lin Qiang's forehead, but that didn't stop him from following behind the concealed butt of Mu Mu.

"M-My lords! You really must not go out there and confront the Crimson Usurper! He is a very dangerous criminal, and you could end up being harmed!"

The Captain tried to catch up to the Princess and her Envoy, but his speed just couldn't hope to match theirs.

By the time he knew it, the two of them were already in the vacuum of space, staring face to face with the unscathed crimson-eyed convict.

"We are so rurally screwed when the Head of the Starsung Commerce Association catches wind of this.... A man who loves his daughter more than anything in the world. What would a man like that do if he found out his daughter did something like this under my supervision...?"

The Captain slumped into his chair, trying to find the will to keep on living after this major folly.

He also thought about what would happen when the Galactic Lord realized that their alliance with the Starsung Association could fall through because of this...

"How did it end up here...? It was just supposed to be a quick target sweep-up before we eventually headed toward the Evergreen Galaxy for drop off..."

As the Galactic Armada's Captain faded into depression, two ostentatiously dressed people locked eyes with an otherworldly handsome man.

This man had his crimson robes in tatters and his aura as calm as a tranquil stream. But even with such a ragged appearance, one couldn't but compare him to the most aloof of immortals.

Though this immortal was far more dangerous than he might seem...
