Chapter 811: Chapter 811 Departure

All of Zhudao City’s upper-class society was shocked, unable to believe it.

Especially Chang Yuntian, who looked on with his mouth agape, speechless for a long time.

Chang Yu murmured to himself, “I told you he was terrifying. Dad, do you believe me now? Even an interstellar warship isn’t his match. This is so terrifying; he isn’t human.”

At this moment, Wu Tianyao had already been brought in front of Qin Hao’s vehicle by the Shadow Guards.

Wu Tianyao’s face was pale and extremely sullen. He, a dignified planetary ruler, had now become someone else’s prisoner.

There was an unconcealable look of fear in his eyes.

What on earth is this? Why is it so terrifying? As a planetary ruler, he had seen much, but if there were such a weapon in the interstellar realm, how could he not know?

As he scrutinized the Shadow Guards, a sudden flash of insight crossed his mind, and he exclaimed, “I know, this is a mecha, an advanced mecha!”

His voice wasn’t loud, but people in the distance heard it.

Some people showed a look of confusion. What’s a mecha? They quickly opened their virtual imaging systems and began searching for information about mechas.

Some people were extremely shocked because they knew about mechas. The eight powerful empires and the Interstellar Federation all had such things. These were symbols of powerful empires.

And now, he actually possessed such an advanced mecha, didn’t that mean his background was extremely terrifying?

Even within the eight powerful empires, this probably wasn’t something owned by just any faction.

No wonder he dared to act so.

Qin Hao, hearing Wu Tianyao’s words, calmly replied, “Too bad you realized it a bit late.”

Wu Tianyao’s expression changed slightly. What did he mean by this? Does he intend to kill me? “This is the Lei Meng Duchy. I am the planetary ruler of the Lei Meng Duchy. Do you still dare to kill me? The duchy will definitely pursue this to the end if I, a planetary ruler, am killed.”

Wu Tianxing was right. The Lei Meng Duchy controlled thirty to forty planets. The death of a planetary ruler was a major event.

Qin Hao said flatly, “Then I await the Lei Meng Duchy’s investigation.” He then said to his Shadow Guards, “Kill him!”

“Swoosh”

The energy sword flickered, and Wu Tianyao’s head flew off, with blood spraying through the air.

Everyone was shocked beyond belief. He actually killed Wu Wenxing. Was he not afraid of the Lei Meng Duchy’s pursuit and retaliation?

Even if the Lei Meng Duchy didn’t chase and retaliate, he would need to give the Lei Meng Duchy an explanation, or else where would the duchy save its face?

The death of a planetary ruler was no trivial matter.

Qin Hao said to the Shadow Guards, “Send a few men to Shanshi Star to take care of the Wu Family. Leave no future troubles.”

“Yes, Master.” Six Shadow Guards soared into the sky, disappearing into the vast cosmos in an instant.

Qin Hao and his group returned. As for the interstellar warship, someone would naturally deal with it in due time.

Returning to their residence, Shui Huilan said worriedly, “Xiaotian, the planetary ruler has been killed. This is a major incident. The Lei Meng Duchy will definitely not stand idly by, even if you are from the Tanglong Empire.”

Qin Hao nodded slightly, “I know, I have my own plans.”

Shui Huilan heard his words and said nothing more, “I’ll go prepare. We’ll set off for the Nolan Empire tomorrow.”

“Alright.”

After Shui Huilan left, Qingtao came over, “Master, you’re amazing. I really admire you.”

Qin Hao smiled lightly at her words, “You little girl, you’re flattering me.”

“No, I’m telling the truth.” Qingtao said coyly.

About an hour later, the six Shadow Guards returned. The Wu Family on Shanshi Star had been eradicated, and they brought back a large amount of star currency and treasure, amounting to nearly thirty billion.

At this moment, Shanshi Star was already in some chaos, with several major families preparing to seize the position of planetary ruler.

After securing this position, they would typically apply for a commission from the Lei Meng Duchy. As long as they obeyed the duchy’s governance, their application would generally not be rejected.

That day, Qin Hao was also preparing for the journey to the Nolan Empire. The route from the Lei Meng Duchy to the Nolan Empire was a long one. Even if everything went smoothly, it would take three months, passing through dozens of duchies, kingdoms, and federations along the way.

Interstellar space was indeed vast. A small nation like the Lei Meng Duchy controlled dozens of planets, not to mention those powerful kingdoms, federated republics, and empires.

From what Qin Hao understood from the information online, the Nolan Empire controlled billions of planets, an unimaginable and powerful feat.

Billions of planets–it was indeed mind-boggling for Qin Hao. Such power was truly immense.

…

The news from this side quickly reached Raymond Star, the capital planet of the Lei Meng Duchy.

After receiving the news, the King of the Lei Meng Duchy did not immediately issue any orders, leaving many people confused as to why.

In the afternoon, Qin Hao made some preparations. Around seven o’clock the next morning, Qin Hao, Luna, Qingtao, Li Jiaqi, and Leng Xuan arrived at the port and boarded the Shui Huilan family’s spaceship.

There were many cosmic cargo ships at the port, not just from Shui Huilan’s family. Several merchant ships were also present.

Qin Hao took a quick look and saw there were sixteen cosmic cargo ships in total, three of which belonged to Shui Huilan’s family. He boarded one of these ships, which were carrying goods in the back.

There were also two interstellar warships at the port. These were hired jointly from the planetary ruler of Nanming Star to ensure the voyage’s safety. However, they would not continue beyond the Lei Meng Duchy’s border.

At that time, they would need to hire interstellar warships from another country for protection.

Inside the spaceship, Shui Huilan saw Qin Hao board and smiled, “Xiaotian, wait a bit. We will set off soon.”

Qin Hao nodded slightly and looked around at the ship’s decor, which had several luxurious rooms.

About ten minutes later,

The cosmic cargo ships at the port started moving. Ahead was a warship, and one followed behind, maintaining a distance of over ten kilometers.

Air combat devices patrolled the area in between, preventing small groups of interstellar pirates from stealing cargo.

A convoy of cosmic cargo ships stretching for over ten kilometers began to travel, soon entering the endless starry sky.

Interstellar travel was the most tedious and boring occupation, and Qin Hao had experienced it firsthand.

However, this time he had more people with him, so there would be someone to talk to.

Qin Hao and his group stayed in the spaceship’s observation room, where they could see the outside scenery.

Shui Huilan said, “It’s been over half a year since I last went home. I’m starting to miss the people there.”

Hearing her words, Qin Hao’s mind drifted to the images of his parents, Du Wanrou, and Xia Qing. He also wanted to go back, but reality wouldn’t allow him to.
