"So, who do you think hijacked this train?" the youth asked, frowning upon hearing the middle-aged man's answer.
"Well... I can't be sure, there are many pirate factions on the Crystal Sea, and there are easily over a hundred factions that can produce three champions!" the middle-aged man replied cautiously.
"I don't want to hear about that!" the youth's tone turned cold, and the middle-aged man felt the impending danger. He quickly spoke up, "Senior, in this vicinity, there are only three pirate crews with such power. They are the Black Dragon Pirate Crew, the Purple Feather Pirate Crew, and the Blood Crocodile Pirate Crew. Among them, the Blood Crocodile Pirate Crew is the strongest, with more than twenty champions!"
"Do you know where their hideouts are?"
"I... know some!"
"Tell me the approximate locations!" the youth said, unfolding a crystal sea map between them. The middle-aged man pointed to three areas with his finger, explaining which pirate crew's territory each area belonged to.
The youth nodded without saying a word. He disappeared from the middle-aged man's sight in a flash. The skyship disappeared into a spatial rift amid the rumbling sound. The middle-aged man watched everything vanish completely and realized that his back was drenched in cold sweat.
Not only was the power overwhelming, just that ship traveling through space was beyond his comprehension. From his estimation, it was at least a level two warship, and with his frail stature, he doubted he could withstand even a single blow.
"Sir..." two black-robed figures appeared behind the middle-aged man again.
"Spread the word, we are going to the closest Black Dragon Pirate Crew. I have a hunch that this area is going to change dramatically!" the middle-aged man looked toward the spot where the skyship disappeared, murmuring to himself, "Maybe we'll gain quite a few benefits this time!"
In the dungeon of the Blood Crocodile Pirate Crew, the gloomy environment created a depressing atmosphere. There were no prisoners locked up around, and the empty cells only had Bexia sitting alone. By now, the seals on his body had completely dissipated, but he didn't know how to escape from here. After all, this was the headquarters of the Blood Crocodile Pirate Crew. How could he escape under the watchful eyes of over twenty champions?
While Bexia was contemplating, the door and chains of the cell rattled. He opened his eyes and saw two pirates throwing a little girl into the cell.
"Wuwu..." due to having something stuffed in their mouths, the two little girls could only emit muffled cries. The two pirates glanced at Bexia before locking the cell door again.
"Wahh!" Bexia pulled out the things stuffed in the two girls' mouths, relieving them.
"Are you two alright?" Bexia also broke the ropes that bound them, helping the two little girls up and asking.
The two little girls, one slightly taller with fiery red hair and two braided pigtails, and the other with ocean blue hair styled like a butterfly, stood up.
"Thank you, big brother!" the red-haired little girl said elegantly, while the blue-haired little girl was a bit shy but still thanked him.
"I'm Luo Cai Ling, and this is my younger sister Luo Ning Xian. What's your name, big brother?" the lively Luo Cai Ling asked Bexia.
"I'm Bexia. Were you also passengers who were captured on the train?"
"Yes! My sister and I were taking a nap. We woke up to find ourselves captured!" Luo Cai Ling pouted, looking displeased. Bexia couldn't help but feel speechless. Why was she so concerned about her nap being interrupted?
"Goo~!" At this moment, a sound caught Bexia's attention and she looked at Luo Ningxian behind Luo Caixiang. The little girl blushed and shyly lowered her head.
"Lingxian, I'm hungry!" Luo Ningxian tugged at Luo Caixiang's sleeve and whispered in her ear.
"My ring was taken away by them, and there's no more food to eat!" Luo Caixiang said helplessly. "Maybe you can hold on for a little longer, Ling'er?"
"But... I'm so hungry~" Luo Ningxian looked really pitiful, her eyes watery, making anyone unable to bear it.
"If you don't mind, I still have some food here!" Bexia's ring may have been taken away, but nobody could take things from her pocket dimension.
Bexia reached into the pocket dimension and felt around. There were many things inside, and she had stored a lot of food in there, considering the possibility of her ring being taken away. After all, the food wouldn't spoil inside.
She took out some pastries and placed them in front of the two little girls. Luo Ningxian's eyes lit up, and Bexia couldn't help but notice that she seemed different, somehow extraordinary.
"Eat up! If it's not enough, I still have some more here!"
"Ah~! Ah~!" Unlike before, Luo Ningxian didn't hesitate at all as she grabbed the cake and stuffed it into her mouth. Within moments, she had finished a big piece of cake, and she even used both hands at the same time. Her speed was unimaginable, as if she hadn't eaten in decades.
Watching Luo Ningxian wolfing down the food, Bexia didn't feel much, but she felt a bit sorry for her. After all, seeing such a cute little girl being so hungry was heartbreaking.
"Ca
But Luo Ningxian couldn't feel satisfied at all. The food in Bexia's subspace was rapidly decreasing, and in the end, even the amount of food that could last for at least a month was completely eaten up, while Luo Ningxian still had a watery look on his face, shouting, "I'm so hungry!"
