Everyone widened their eyes in disbelief. They had expected that Sheng Yao would either be unyielding or plead for mercy, but it was beyond their imagination that he would lower his head right after he appeared.

[Is he really the Fierce Gale Pirates’ Head Manager? Is he really a Second-Order Origin King?] Everyone felt that the sight they were seeing was surreal; however, after giving it a thought, they knew that he was just submitting to the circumstances.

Apparently, Sheng Yao wasn’t confident of going up against this young man, which was why he appeared so servile. A Master would only back down in front of an even stronger Master.

A glint flashed across the young man’s eyes as he looked over Sheng Yao and curled up his lips, as though he had found something interesting. However, he soon knitted his brow, for he had never expected that this person would be so cowardly. It was said that ‘one should not slap a person in the face when he was smiling at you. Although Sheng Yao had been hiding nearby the whole time, he had never made an aggressive move; hence, there were practically no grudges between them.

Moreover, he appeared humble and subservient now, so it would be inappropriate for the young man to kill him directly. Ma Chao Qun and He Wu Zui only had themselves to blame for their deaths. On the other hand, this Sheng Yao appeared to have sharp instincts for avoiding misfortune.

[This puts me in a tight spot.] After some deliberation, the young man still didn’t know what to do, so he decided to ignore him and close his eyes while remaining in the same spot.

Sheng Yao remained unmoving, his back bent deeply as pea-sized drops of sweat streamed down his face. It felt terrible to have his life controlled by the whims of another. Nevertheless, he had no choice but to remain subservient, as this young man was far stronger than he was.

The place fell into silence again as the young man gave no reaction, but even an hour later, the young man still remained unmoving.

Naturally, the people from the Lu Family wouldn’t make a move since their leader, Lu Huai Shuang also kept her silence. It was the same for the Fierce Gale Pirates. On the other hand, those top cultivators from the He Family traded glances as it was apparent that they wanted to flee when an opportunity presented itself.

Lu Huai Shuang shot them a cold glance all of a sudden, though, as she would definitely not allow them to escape. Both the Lu Family and the He Family were archenemies on Morning Sun Star, and their powers were equally matched because they both had an Origin King Realm Master assuming command. However, from today onwards, the He Family wouldn’t be a threat to the Lu Family anymore.

After He Wu Zui’s death, the He Family was practically leaderless, so the Lu Family could seize the chance and annex their properties and businesses. It would be the best outcome if Lu Huai Shuang could bury all these top cultivators from the He Family here forever.

Understanding that she couldn’t let this chance slip through her fingers, Lu Huai Shuang took one more look at the young man before steeling herself. A glint flashed across her azure longsword as she pointed her weapon at the He Family’s people and ordered coldly, “Kill them all!”
