Chapter 1034 Two Options

Jiang Xiao in the Calamity Shadow World was also not idle. He flickered to a deserted island in the Pacific Ocean, where he had captured two cubs earlier.

When Jiang Xiao arrived, only one cub was floating high in the air, a cloud of mist appearing in its hood, seemingly looking around.

The other cub was nowhere to be found.

The Soul Devourer of the Sea, peering around in the air, immediately attacked when it spotted Jiang Xiao!

Jiang Xiao, however, calmly accepted the "embrace" of the Soul Devourer of the Sea cub. Not only did he open his arms to receive it, but he also hugged the cub tightly. At the same time, two rings of Dependence appeared on Jiang Xiao's body.

One clockwise, one counter-clockwise.

The Soul Devourer of the Sea frantically released star power water, trying to dissolve Jiang Xiao's flesh.

It succeeded a little, at least melting away all of Jiang Xiao's clothes, but...

It didn't get to taste a single bit of fresh blood or tender meat. On the contrary, the Soul Devourer of the Sea cub found that its own life force and star power were rapidly declining!

The faster it released star techniques, the more its own life force and star power were consumed!

What was going on!?

At this moment, it hadn't realized how terrifying the ring of Dependence on its body truly was.

The Soul Devourer of the Sea cub chickened out!

It finally knew fear! If this continued, the enemy would be fine, but it would kill itself first!

The Soul Devourer of the Sea released Jiang Xiao and tried to escape, but Jiang Xiao held on to it tightly.

"Na li pao~唔......" Jiang Xiao's body was pulled to the side by the Soul Devourer of the Sea, and the two of them, along with a piece of clothing, drew circles in the air.

Little rascal~ I can't deal with you~

While teaching the young cloak a lesson, Jiang Xiao was also secretly observing the situation outside.

In the alien space, on the seabed of the North Atlantic Ocean, Martha floated in place, holding the Sea Soul Lantern in her hand, the deep blue light illuminating the surroundings.

She was waiting for the pair of men and women to appear again, but... as a "bait," she had not attracted any creatures.

There was also no sign of anything in the sensing range of the Sea Nether Mist.

Fortunately, this place was extremely far from the initial battlefield; otherwise, the Soul Devourers of the Sea would have already attacked.

Had that foreign couple really left?

Wasn't I pretty enough? Weren't they going to take another look at me?

Martha gently rubbed her long hair that was floating in the sea with one hand, tucking it into her hood. On her body, the Sea Devouring Garment affectionately rubbed its collar hands against Martha's face.

...

Back in the Calamity Shadow World, Jiang Xiao hugged the Soul Devouring Garment, which had been played to death and dared not attack any more, and plunged into the sea.

While activating the Domain Tear, he summoned the Humming Whale again.

"Hum..."

The whale's cry sounded again, but it wasn't a scan, but... a grievance?

"Uh..." Jiang Xiao had a Soul Devouring Garment under his arm, and scratched his head with the other hand.

The Humming Whale... had indeed suffered a lot of grievances just now.

He floated to the front of the Humming Whale, reached out and gently stroked its huge eyes, a hint of apologetic smile on his face: "Gulu Gulu..."

I'm sorry.

"Hum..."

After this whale's cry, a Soul Devourer of the Sea cub chick that was slowly diving appeared in Jiang Xiao's mind.

The Humming Whale's voice was also much happier. After being gently stroked by Jiang Xiao, its mood immediately improved, and its huge body swayed from side to side, looking very happy.

It's okay!

Jiang Xiao felt the emotions conveyed by the Humming Whale and felt guilty. He once again flickered with it, chasing after the Soul Devourer of the Sea cub chick that had escaped.

A dozen seconds later, Jiang Xiao, with a limp Soul Devourer of the Sea cub in his left hand, and another Soul Devourer of the Sea cub still attacking frantically wrapped around his body, flickered to the desert island in the Pacific Ocean.

The cub that was being held in Jiang Xiao's left hand even raised its body, a black mist emerging from its hood, as if it was "watching" its companion tear Jiang Xiao apart with all its might.

But it did not dissuade its companion. The hood drooped down again, looking like it couldn't resist and could only accept its fate...

A few minutes later, Jiang Xiao, carrying two Soul Devourer of the Sea cubs with their heads drooping and doubting their lives, opened the door to the Calamity Shadow World.

In an instant, Martha was directly blasted in by a huge water cannon!

Martha was wearing a Soul Devouring Garment, but... since she was unprepared, she was embarrassed again!

This was the second time she had been bombed by a water cannon~

The Soul Devouring Garment twisted its collar hands aggrievedly, a scene that made it look even more like Martha was feeling wronged...

The Sea Devouring Garment was simply too cute~

But Jiang Xiao and Martha both had solemn expressions. The sudden appearance of two people on the seabed made Jiang Xiao realize that there were likely members of the Hua Xing Organization lurking here.

After all, this was within the European region.

And the couple was extremely decisive, and disappeared in a flash after a brief encounter, without even trying to explore or communicate.

Why!?

Jiang Xiao frowned, because the other party saw Jiang Xiao's team facing hordes of Soul Devourers of the Sea without fear, so they were afraid of the strength of Jiang Xiao's team and worried that Jiang Xiao would be detrimental to them?

Wouldn't it be...?

Although the Star Warrior world was a world where people were born and died in seconds, and the alien space was even more chaotic and disordered, it shouldn't be the case that strangers would draw their swords against each other as soon as they met, right?

Were they too cautious, or had there been precedents of being attacked before, so they fled so quickly?

Jiang Xiao was puzzled, or... did these two people know me?

Could their age make them members of the Hua Xing Organization?

The Hua Xing Organization's standards for recruiting members were very, very strict!

To take a step back, even if they were really members of the Hua Xing Organization, Jiang Xiao truly exposed his identity as the "Star Slayer" after killing Leanna.

And that Leanna was the Hua Xing Organization's liaison on Earth.

Jiang Xiao was very sure that when he slaughtered Leanna, he was clean and neat, and she should not have had time to transmit Jiang Xiao's personal information.

Even if Leanna passed on Jiang Xiao's information by controlling the mecha, it was important to note that Jiang Xiao was in disguise when he killed Leanna!

At that time, it was a white man, a young man with short brown hair, who killed Leanna!

Jiang Xiao didn't do it, it had nothing to do with Jiang Xiao~

It should be impossible for Leanna to transmit information. Subsequently, the only two remaining Hua Xing members on Earth, Nanako and Barze, should not have the ability to communicate with the Hua Xing Organization in the alien space?

Did Nanako and Barze pass on the inferred and judged information to others, and then other people passed the information to the Hua Xing Organization after entering the alien space?

This possibility did not seem high. These two extremely arrogant headmaster Star Warriors, who were detached from the organization's tasks, should not pass on unconfirmed information.

Or... did the other party not run away because they saw Jiang Xiao, but because they saw the Humming Whale, and then quickly evacuated?

Jiang Xiao left with his team, full of doubts.

At the same time, in the stone villa.

"Lao Wu, Lao Wu!" A hurried knock on the door sounded.

Wu Haoyang was lying on Jiang Shou's bed, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep. Hearing this sound, he hurriedly got up and opened the door, only to see Jiang Shou standing in front of the door.

"What's the matter?" Wu Haoyang hurriedly asked.

Jiang Shou said, "Lao Wu, do you want Void Calamity Shadow Star Beads? Do you want Desperate Wanderer Star Beads?"

Wu Haoyang: ???

Jiang Shou: "If you want them, I'll get them for you now!"

Wu Haoyang: "......"

Jiang Shou handed a few brocade pouches to Wu Haoyang without explanation, and said, "You have already been promoted to the Star Sea stage, and you have 8 available star slots. It's time to grow up!

The black brocade pouch contains the Void Calamity Shadow Star Beads, with the skills Space-Time Gap and Calamity Shadow Ruins. Since you don't follow the Jinmen Shadow or the Yan Zhao Desperate Wanderer path, then learn teleportation!

The white brocade pouch contains the Star Beads of the Desperate Wanderer, with the skills Desperate Beads and Desperate Body, which can increase your output and your own defense."

Wu Haoyang's expression was stiff, and he took the Star Beads blankly, not knowing what to say.

He knew that only by learning these high-quality star techniques could he keep up with the team's pace.

But... since joining the Starfall Team, Jiang Xiao had given him too much.

As a Star Warrior, what he valued most was the Star Bead!

And every time Jiang Xiao made a move, the preciousness of the Star Beads was extremely terrifying!

Although Wu Haoyang knew that Jiang Xiao was rich and generous, constantly accepting gifts made Wu Haoyang, a Star Warrior with extremely strong self-esteem, feel particularly uncomfortable.

At the same time, Jiang Xiao was standing on the third floor, knocking on the Blind Girl's door.

"Sanwei."

A gust of wind swept through behind the door, and the door was suddenly blown open.

The Blind Girl was expressionless and propped herself up.

Jiang Xiao looked into the dark room and vaguely saw the Blind Girl sitting on Erwei's specially customized, huge bed, the proportions a little out of sync.

The Blind Girl immediately sensed that the situation was special. Jiang Xiao came with Martha, and he was carrying two Soul Devourers of the Sea in his hands.

The Blind Girl frowned slightly, and her slender fingers slowly clenched the dark red velvet quilt that belonged to Erwei, and said, "You went to the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean yourself!?"

"Yes." Jiang Xiao nodded, stepped in, and sat down in the chair in front of the desk. "There's something I have to tell you."

"Wu~"

As he spoke, Jiang Xiao saw a silhouette slowly floating in the dark red velvet quilt, crawling out from the end of the bed, the exquisite little dragon head tilting to look at Jiang Xiao, who was disturbing its sweet dream.

Martha raised her eyebrows slightly and said, "Aren't you cold? The Crystal Dragon's body is ice cold! It's okay in the summer, just treat it as a crystal dragon air conditioner. The weather is so cold now, are you looking for a cold and fever?"

At this time, the Blind Girl seemed to have calmed down. Her voice was very soft, ignoring Martha, and facing Jiang Xiao, she said lightly, "Why did you act alone?"

Jiang Xiao said, "You and Haoyang are both landlubbers. They're not sea creatures. I went on a mission with Martha. By the way, don't interrupt me, I have something to tell you."

The Blind Girl pursed her lips, but in the end, she didn't say anything.

Jiang Xiao said, "When I went to the bottom of the sea this time, I ran into two people who may be related to the Hua Xing Organization."

The Blind Girl's breathing stagnated slightly, and her mood, which had just recovered and calmed down, had a trace of waves again: "The organization that killed Yiwei." (Yiwei = One Tail)

"Um..." Jiang Xiao thought for a moment, and slowly nodded.

Blind Girl: "North Atlantic seabed."

Jiang Xiao hurriedly said, "I'm not sure yet, and I know that telling you now may distract you, but I have to tell you.

At present, our most important task is to drive away the star beasts on the land of China. We don't have time to care about other people, but if...

What I mean is, if, in the process of carrying out the mission, someone comes looking for us, then a war may break out at any time. If the two people I met today are really members of the Hua Xing Organization...

In short, you must have a clear understanding of the Hua Xing Organization."

While Jiang Xiao was telling the story in detail, in the Central Plains, Barze awakened the Eagle Falcon brothers, and in Ludong, Jiang Xun also awakened Little Chongyang and Zhang Songfu.

Jiang Xiao, Jiang Shou, Jiang Xun, and Barze spoke at the same time, telling the same intelligence information to different people.

The world was indeed very big. Even if two people lived in the same small county, they probably wouldn't meet each other in their entire lives if they didn't make an appointment.

But sometimes this world was very small, just like the encounter between Jiang Xiao and Wu Haoyang.

In terms of timing, maybe it was destined in the dark.

But as long as Wu Haoyang was alive and living on the land of China, then Jiang Xiao, who was searching China, would definitely be able to find him.

For example, the two people he met today. If the other party had something to do with the Hua Xing Organization, then the problem would be big.

Jiang Xiao was currently in an extremely tense "Surveying China" mission, and what Jiang Xiao was most unwilling to touch was the Hua Xing Organization far away in Europe.

He didn't have the time, let alone the energy, to complete that mission.

In Jiang Xiao's mind, the tasks had priorities.

The Starfall Team suffered less from the suffering of the lower-level Chinese people every time the team searched an area in this alien world. Jiang Xiao knew what he should do at this time.

But there was no way. Since he accidentally encountered two strange youths, he could only face it!

When he didn't know the other party's identity, he could only make the worst plan.

However, waiting passively was obviously not a wise move.

Jiang Xiao thought, since he had so many mechas, maybe he could let Martha and Barze go to Europe to explore.

On the one hand, Martha and Barze were strong enough, and they were also first-class experts in escaping. They could improve the quality of their star techniques while collecting some intelligence.

The missions in the Central Plains and Ludong were coming to an end, and the team members would return soon.

With the Blind Girl, Little Chongyang, Buddha, the Eagle Falcon brothers, and Jiang Xiao working together, the strength of this team was already enough. It didn't make much difference whether Barze and Martha were in the team or not.

On the other hand, after all, Martha and Barze were just "mechas." If they died, Jiang Xiao would of course feel bad, but at least it was the mechas that had an accident, not the Starfall Team.

Even if they encountered enemy troops, don't forget that Jiang Xiao could teleport around the world. Sudden support and sneak attacks could have a better effect.

The fear was that the other party didn't want to pay attention to them at all, but because Martha and Barze appeared and caused trouble, they attracted the other party's attention instead.

Well, how to carry out this mission really needed to be carefully considered.
