Chapter 1031: Space Graveyard “It seems that the Ascendant named Yin Xing didn’t dare to kill you. He could have killed me. Was he scared that my master would track him down if he did? The other assassins dared to kill me because they could hide in the Home of Havoc, which is a special area where even Celestials are unable to use their abilities to the fullest. “Besides, those people were rogue assassins.” Su Ping’s eyes became cold. Those Star Lord assassins were the real ambushers set up to attack him! All of them were ready to sacrifice themselves. They could be compared to the top Star Lords on the Divine Lord Rank! “What do we do now? Are we still going to the Blue Castle Planetary System? I’m worried that there’ll be ambushers there too. It’s frightening to think they predicted that we would come to this planet!” said Loulan Lin quickly. She was quite smart; although she didn’t look into the captive’s memories, she had made her own speculations based on the information at hand. Worry was overwhelming her, as the Dark Tower rarely failed. Even the members of the top families would be wary if the Dark Tower’s assassins went after them! “Blue Castle is the only planetary system near us. Our spaceship was destroyed, so we have to get another one!” said Su Ping. “What if there are ambushers waiting for us?” Su Ping told her the situation, “Blue Castle has been annihilated by them; there are four guys waiting for us there.” Loulan Lin was dumbfounded. Then, she angrily clenched her fist while her face had a contorted expression. “They slaughtered an entire planetary system to ambush us. An entire planetary system! Did they intentionally spare the planet we just visited?” “That planet was the bait,” said Su Ping coldly, “Unfortunately, they’ve caught a dragon king!” “If they’re waiting to ambush us in the Blue Castle System, won’t it be too dangerous if we go there?” Loulan Lin was angry, but she swiftly calmed down; the lady of the Loulan family kept a cool head in such a dangerous moment. After all, she was among the top thirty on the Divine Lord Rank; she couldn’t have claimed such an achievement simply by staying home and cultivating. “That Ascendant’s pet might catch up to us if we’re held up by those assassins…” “Let’s just finish them off as quickly as possible. If the pet is fast enough to catch up, it will surely reach us on our way to Blue Castle,” said Su Ping. For him, traveling took much more time than fighting. Besides, he was still inside the space pocket his enemies had woven for him. In order to reach the border of that pocket from its center, the fastest way to leave was through a ship’s space jump. Loulan Lin couldn’t argue with that. She too knew they were already inside a trap, and that they had to finish the battle as quickly as possible; she could only pray for good luck. Su Ping took out the Prime Sky Mirror and traveled through several spaces, taking Loulan Lin and his clone to the planetary system. They moved at full speed. Two hours later—Su Ping arrived in Blue Castle. Watching from a distance, it could be seen that a helical blue planetary system was spinning, with a dozen planets in tow; quite a few of them had their own satellites. There were also a lot of space stations outside of the planetary system, where spaceships and workers stayed. Everything looked normal. Su Ping was already aware that the planetary system had been destroyed. When looking at the people moving inside the space stations, he keenly captured their mental powers and his eyes glowed brilliantly. He then gathered his willpower on his eyes like swords. Soon, the seemingly lively and prosperous planetary system lost all its disguise. It was broken, desolate and quiet! The entire planetary system was dead silent. The space stations where workers were talking and laughing were also badly ruined; a lot of torn bodies were floating in space! The entire planetary system had been turned into a graveyard! “A slaughter…” Su Ping’s eyes were cold; those assassins were extremely cruel. It was easy to tell from the gory scenery and the giant pits on the planets—which looked like bitten apples—what kind of horrors had befallen that planetary system earlier! Every planetary system was supervised by a Star Lord. However, Blue Castle was just a tier-4 planetary system; its master clearly couldn’t have been a strong one, aside from being as vulnerable as a baby when butting heads against monsters who could compare to the top performers of the Divine Lord Rank. “Here?” Loulan Lin looked at the scenery and found that everything was normal. She truly felt puzzled. Su Ping waved his hand, tearing apart the illusions like removing a curtain. Loulan Lin was then able to see the cruel scenes too; her face immediately turned pale and distraught. “One of them is hiding in a space station. The other three are on the biggest planet.” Su Ping spread out his mental power, vaguely detecting a few auras. He probably couldn’t have detected them if his mental power hadn’t been strengthened; those assassins were hiding themselves in arrays. “Let’s finish off the one in the space station first. He must be planning to cooperate with the assassins on our spaceship,” said Su Ping. He looked at the masked young man in his clone’s small world and punched him. After a boom, the young man’s body exploded. His consciousness dashed out and cried in fear, “What are you doing?” He had seen the Blue Castle’s demise. He didn’t expect that Su Ping would dare to go to that place after learning of their plan. That was truly confident of him! All geniuses were confident, and they often died because of their confidence too! The masked young man cursed Su Ping continuously, wishing the latter would die miserably. “He’s all yours.” Su Ping plucked the young man’s consciousness. It was easier for the former to suppress the latter with a much stronger willpower. He squeezed the target into a ball, pushing its head into its body before he threw it to the Little Skeleton. The bony pet saw the ghost and its eye sockets quickly started emitting a red light. It then spouted a stream of dark energy to absorb the ghost with its mouth. “You think a mere Star State pet can…” the masked young man roared furiously, but his declaration soon turned into a scream of fear. The Little Skeleton absorbed the ghost, this time it didn’t drop it from its chin; he was crunched by the black mist in its mouth. The Little Skeleton chewed; the young man screamed so miserably that even Loulan Lin’s expression was changing. She finally discovered that the seemingly cute skeleton was actually a horrifying being. Although Su Ping had helped in suppressing the young assassin, it was still terrifying that the pet was able to swallow a Star Lord’s ghost! “Take care of yourself.” Su Ping asked the Little Skeleton to stay and protect Loulan Lin while it absorbed the masked young man’s ghost. He moved forward along with his clone, ready to finish the battle quickly. Su Ping arrived at the space station without making a sound after traveling through spaces via the Prime Sky Mirror. Inside the space station, a brawny young man was seated on a comfortable chair at ease and talking to himself, “I wonder if that kid boarded their spaceship… Huh?” All of a sudden, he sensed something and frowned. He sat up and carefully examined the environment. A deafening explosion burst out right when he focused his attention. Meanwhile, two iron fists smashed into his face, one from the left and the other from the right. “What…?” The brawny young man narrowed his eyes. All his hairs were shaking. The two iron fists contained infinite strength; they also came with the power of a horrifying small world. The space on their way had been frozen. Even his mind seemed to have slowed down. He wanted to fight back, but his body had been smashed into pieces the moment the idea occurred to him! Su Ping didn’t show any mercy. He made use of his small world to finish off his enemy. He could have killed the man with his clone, but he chose to do it personally. He did in person only because it would be faster, and there wouldn’t be any accidents! Su Ping looked at the young man’s ghost, which had just flowed out of his broken body, Su Ping squeezed until it turned into a ball, to suppress him in his small world. After that, the Prime Sky Mirror flashed again; he vanished into the void and quickly approached the main planet. Inside Su Ping’s small world, the brawny young man roared in fear, “Who are you?” His body had been instantly shattered. Even his consciousness was badly wounded too. All the contracts in his head had been broken. He found it hard to believe that someone could kill at such a fast speed! He had survived countless dangers in the Home of Havoc. However, Su Ping’s attack was so unexpected that he didn’t even have the time to react! The illusions outside weren’t torn apart either.?How did this man arrive here? He hadn’t detected the Ascendant aura from Su Ping; otherwise he would have thought that the young man was an Ascendant! “You don’t know whom you’re ambushing? Shouldn’t the Dark Tower be better than this?” said Su Ping indifferently. The brawny young man looked awful; his pet was unconscious. Before Su Ping replied, he had figured out who the person was: The target they were supposed to assassinate was the only one who could have entered the region. “How did you find this place? Are you really in the Star State?” The brawny young man found it unacceptable. He had indeed learned a lot about the target from Yin Xing; he thought he was able to confront the top fighters of the Divine Lord Rank after all the training in the Home of Havoc. Even if he was unable to win, he could always escape. However, Su Ping turned out to be much stronger than he thought. More importantly, he was only in the Star State! “Your companion brought me over,” said Su Ping casually. Then, killing intent flashed in his eyes, dashing forward along with his clone. On the main planet of the Blue Castle Planetary System, inside a certain building—three people were hiding above an ancient array. The building was the array’s pivot, which was powered by the energy deep inside the planet, to then cover the entire planetary system as well as themselves. “They haven’t sent any messages yet. It seems that the Star State brat hasn’t found this place so far,” said the young man who was holding a pet in his arms, eyes full of disdain. “What a shame. we would have been able to accomplish this mission with ease if Senior Yin Xing was willing to lend his pets to us,” said the one-eyed young man with a sigh. “Don’t talk about him; that senior is very smart. He wants all the returns, yet he doesn’t want to pay anything. Humph. He’s just a coward; he doesn’t deserve to be an Ascendant, at all!” said a beautiful woman, ending with a snort. She was stunningly gorgeous, yet she had quite the rude behavior. Her personality had been changed and molded in the Home of Havoc. They had lived in the Home of Havoc, together without Yin Xing, so they were comrades in a way.
