Martial Peak

Chapter 1099, Wu Yi’s Anger

The Starship broke through the cloud layer of Shadowed Star and descended slowly to a large landing square.

At the square, someone who had already received word of their return was waiting to receive them, and when Wu Yi saw who this figure out the Starship’s window, she couldn’t help waving both her hands and calling out happily, “It’s Uncle Hao An!”

Yu Feng also grinned broadly, “Our trip is also considered an important task. Senior Hao An will naturally come out to meet us in person. Young Lady, after we get back, we’ll be properly rewarded, right?”

“All you think about is your reward!” Wu Yi rolled her eyes before laughing lightly, “Rest assured, the ore we mined this time is quite precious, there’ll definitely be enough compensation.”

Hearing her say this, the cultivator gathered nearby immediately cheered.

With a dull thud, the Starship landed and the hatch slowly opened. With Wu Yi at the head, and Chang Qi following close behind, a large crowd filed out with their heads held his, like soldiers returning in triumph from the battlefield, bringing honour and glory with them.

The old man named Hao An greeted them quickly while a number of cultivators from the Hai Ke Family who were standing behind him also approached and saluted, “Many thanks for Young Lady’s hard work!”

“It is what I should do, Uncle Hao An is too polite,” Wu Yi smiled.

“This old man can finally rest easy knowing Young Lady has returned safely,” Hao An declared with a look of lingering worry. Everyone understood just how dangerous it was to navigate the Star Field aboard a Starship. Wu Yi’s trip this time had lasted longer than a year, and many people who cared for her safety had not slept well since she left; Hao An was one among them and enthusiastically greeted, “Young Lady, please come back to the family, Patriarch and the other Elders are very worried about you, I’m sure they will be happy to know you’ve returned safe and sound.”

Wu Yi smiled but shook her head lightly, “There’s no rush, and we’ll first unload the ore from the Starship before heading back.”

Hearing this, Hao An’s face froze up, but he quickly fixed his expression and put on a strong smile, “Such matters do not need the Young Lady to handle personally, someone will naturally process it.”

Wu Yi stood for a moment before nodding, “Fine.”

Saying so, she shouted to the crowd behind her, “You lot stay here and help transport the ore back.”

“Yes!” Yu Feng and the others shouted loudly.
