# Chapter 1912: Crack Defense Speech Tactics
What happened next was simple enough - Jiangnan and his crew were utterly merciless!
They swept through the Chaos Star Sea in their starship!
No pirate group could stand against the Handsome-As-Hell Combination; they all got sacked and received justice!
And with Olivia acting as a danger early warning system, there was no way they'd flip!
In reality, the starry sky wasn't nearly as terrifying as Jiangnan had imagined!
Star Breaker-level existences among various races were already considered significant figures!
And those who reached Planet Destroyer-level strength were even rarer. The starry sky was so vast!
Even if there were many such level powerhouses, they weren't exactly common!
Let alone Star Devourer-level existences - those were top-tier big shots of the starry sky, the treasures of various races!
After one round of justice execution, Jiangnan collected over twenty million Star Source Points!
Nearly a hundred pirate ships of various types, countless treasures!
You could say it was a small windfall!
If Ye Yuan hadn't competed and blacked quite a few of Jiangnan's Star Source Points, Jiangnan could have earned even more!
But he had contributed, and one needed traveling expenses to walk the martial world!
So Jiangnan decided to leave them with Ye Yuan for now - weren't a brother's things just one's own?
Now the Handsome-As-Hell Combination had successfully made a name across the Chaos Star Sea!
The hundreds of thousands of homeless pirates roaming the Chaos Star Sea couldn't scrape together a complete set of clothes between them, not even half a Star Source Point!
If they could, Jiangnan would lose!
Looking at the Star Source Points in his source core, then looking at the trillion famine he owed his system darling, Jiangnan couldn't be happy at all!
(◕ˇ益ˇ)و "How the hell is this enough? A bunch of poor bastards, all these years as pirates for nothing? Didn't earn any real money?"
Pangbulaji heard this and nearly died on the spot!
That was twenty million Star Source Points! You really don't treat money as money?
Do you know how terrifying the purchasing power of these Star Source Points is in Thousand Stars City?
But thinking he still had thirty-two bounty sacks to exchange and a bunch of starships to sell, it would add up to half a small goal!
Jiangnan was slightly relieved, but that still wasn't enough!
What difference was that from buying a Lamborghini with a 100-yuan coupon?
At least he still had a box of Incense Beads, worth a fortune, but such a large amount of treasure wasn't easy to sell!
It would attract attention, and besides, not everyone could handle it!
He'd have to wait until they reached Thousand Stars City to see!
The group boarded the pirate ship!
Jiangnan raised an eyebrow: (๑◔～◔ิ๑) "So, you're really not coming with us? Going back to Titan Star?"
On another pirate ship, Nita and Nina led all the Titans, waving goodbye to Jiangnan!
"We... we won't go. The outside world is too dangerous. Better to go home!"
They'd already looted the entire Chaos Star Sea. God knows what would happen next when they went to Thousand Stars City!
Following Boss Nan was too dangerous. You never know how you'd die!
Better wait until they broke through Star Breaker before venturing out!
Jiangnan grinned: (͡°◡͡°)ﾂ "Won't keep you then. The ship is yours. See you in the martial world!"
With that, the pirate ship initiated warp jump and vanished instantly, heading straight for Thousand Stars City!
Nina stared at the retreating pirate ship, tears blurring her eyes!
ᥬ(┘ᵒ̴̶̷̥́┏ლ┓ᵒ̴̶̷̥́└)᭄
Nita patted Nina's shoulder:
"That's not a Southern man you can capture! But your brother won't interfere!"
(┘꒪ͦ┏︿┓꒪ͦ└) "Love right is love! Love wrong is youth!"
Nina rubbed her eyes: "Is the chicken soup aftereffect not over yet? Let's go... stop thinking about it!"
Their pirate ship also departed, heading home. That one pirate ship alone was worth who knows how much. Strictly speaking, Nita and them had come out ahead!
Only a group of sorrowful pirates were left behind in the Chaos Star Sea!
...
On the pirate ship heading to Thousand Stars City!
Jiangnan was about to study his new treasures when Ye Yuan approached!
(￢～￢) "You promised! To teach me crack defense speech tactics and poison chicken soup divine technique! Don't try to back out!"
Jiangnan paused, then grinned:
(•́.̫•̀) "This? Simple!"
"Let me ask you, failure is the mother of success. Then what is the father of success?"
Ye Yuan frowned deeply, lowering his head in thought:
(｡･ˇกˇ･｡:) "What... what is it?"
Jiangnan rubbed his nose:
(͡°ก͡°) "Give me a hundred thousand Star Source Points, and I'll tell you!"
Ye Yuan's eyes widened: (ꐦʘ̆口ʘ̆) "Huh? I still have to pay tuition? You didn't say that when you promised me!"
Jiangnan spread his hands: ╮(•́ω•̀)╭ "Do you want to know or not? Pay up if you do!"
Ye Yuan gritted his teeth: "Fine, I'll pay! Let's hear what the father of success is!"
So he transferred a hundred thousand Star Source Points to Jiangnan. After all, it was stolen - no loss!
Just then, a mechanical voice came from Ye Yuan's source core bracelet:
"You have successfully paid 100,000 Star Source Points!"
Ye Yuan's expression froze. Jiangnan shrugged:
ʅ(･´‸･｀)ʃ "There! That's the father of success! Hear that clearly?"
[From Ye Yuan: Resentment Value +1007!]
Veins bulged on his forehead as he grabbed Jiangnan by the collar!
(ꐦ͡ʘ益͡ʘ)و "What the hell kind of father of success is that! Are you treating me like an idiot? Isn't this just fraud?"
Jiangnan said calmly: (乛.̮乛〃) "Tell me, did you learn it? Did it crack your defense? Is it poisonous?"
Ye Yuan paused. It did crack his defense!
"Learned... learned!"
Jiangnan said earnestly: "How else would it leave a deep impression? Go on, go on - today's lesson ends here!"
Ye Yuan swallowed, his eyes shifting. He'd learned another trick. Time to try it out!
So he hurried to the cultivation pod and found Olivia!
(๑◔д◔ิ) "Hey, girl, let me ask you. If failure is the mother of success, what's the father of success?"
Olivia, who was cultivating, looked at Ye Yuan in confusion!
Does this Netherworld race have some serious illness?
(｡･ˇ_ˇ･｡) "I didn't know before, but now I do. Successful payment, right?"
Ye Yuan: (︶ᗜ︶〃) "Hah, don't know? Give me a million Star Source Points and I'll tell..."
Halfway through his sentence, Ye Yuan's expression froze. Can you not answer first?
No sense of achievement at all!
Wasn't she supposed to be precognitive? How did he forget this? Damn it!
Olivia: (⌒ж⌒;) "Anything else? If not, don't disturb this genius beautiful girl working hard on her cultivation!"
"After all, success equals 99.9% talent plus 0.1% sweat~"
Ye Yuan ground his teeth and dejectedly went back to Jiangnan:
(̿▀̿益▀̿̿ꐦ) "Learned that one. Teach me another!"
Jiangnan: (̿▀̿̿Ĺ̯̿̿▀̿̿)̄ "You didn't go try it on Olivia, did you? Looks like I'll have to use my ultimate technique?"
"First, let's test your memory. What was the last sentence you said you learned?"
Ye Yuan sneered. Something that just happened - how could he forget?
(•︠৺•︡) "That sentence was 'What the hell kind of father of success is that, are you treating me like an idiot, you—"
Jiangnan nodded: (͡°͜ʖ͡°)✧ "Mm!"
Ye Yuan: ???
(ꐦ͡ʘ益ʘ͡ꐦ) "Mm? You said mm? Mm your sister? I'll settle this with you right now!"
[From Ye Yuan: Resentment Value +1008!]
He was about to grab Jiangnan when Jiangnan quickly stopped him:
"Hey hey hey! Teaching! This is teaching! Don't start fighting! Tell me, did it crack your defense?"
Ye Yuan ground his teeth: "It did!"
Jiangnan spread his hands: ʅ(･´⥎･｀)ʃ "Then there you go! Another trick learned!"
Just then, Olivia's loud, crisp laughter came from the cultivation pod, like a goose cackling!
Ye Yuan's face darkened even more. Might as well just beat him up!
...
Tianqi Star Domain, Shenyu Main Star!
On its orbit, over a dozen miniature satellite cannons, weaponized down to their star cores, floated!
The entire Tianqi Star Domain had been fully developed!
As the Fourth Sequence of the starry sky, this was the least they could do!
Inside the Tianqi Temple on Shenyu Star!
A mature woman with her hair in a crown lay half-reclined on a medical bed!
A row of attendants stood around!
Though her appearance was still beautiful, she carried a heavy aura of decline!
Various tubes connected to her, with the purest life source liquid from the Tree Race continuously injected into her body!
But it couldn't dispel her decay!
She clutched a scent ball, greedily inhaling from it!
Soon, the Incense Beads inside the scent ball were used up!
Her eyes bloodshot, she threw the scent ball to the ground!
"Not enough! Not nearly enough! Where's Wenge? Has he exchanged for more?"
The sudden outburst made the attendants pale!
Her emotional fluctuation even caused the void to warp, illusions appearing and vanishing!
Everything around uncontrollably turned to ash!
Outside Tianqi Temple, a white-robed, pointed-eared Tianqi race member stepped forward, his expression humble!
"Wenge greets the Lady Venerable! This is the Incense Beads sent urgently. I'll replenish them for you now!"
He handed the woman a metal ball!
The woman opened it with anticipation, then her expression turned cold: "Why is it only half a bead?"
"The quantity isn't enough! Are you unwilling to spend money? The Tianqi race, the fourth sequence of the starry sky, can't even afford this?"
"I've already used many Incense Beads. My resistance is strong. I need more. What good is half a bead?"
Wenge's face paled: (๑◔﹏◔ิ๑) "Reporting to Lady Manti, it's not a problem of Star Source Points!"
"Your situation is known among the high ranks of major races. Precious creatures like Star-Devouring Giant Worms are mostly held by energy-type life races!"
"Incense Beads are almost monopolized. Now that they've heard your news, they've cut off supply. The little on the market is being bid up crazily!"
"This half bead was bought at a high price through connections!"
Manti was furious, her eyes bloodshot: "They all want me dead! Every single one wants me dead, don't they?"
Wenge lowered his head, bitterly smiling. That was exactly it!
With the chance to eliminate a Star Devourer-level powerhouse from a major race, other races wouldn't let it go!
Especially since the Tianqi race, as carbon-based, sat conspicuously in fourth place. Those energy-type life races would spare no effort to suppress them!
It would be better if she died. They wouldn't release Incense Beads for the Tianqi race to use!
Just keeping the Lady Venerable alive with Incense Beads had cost who knows how many Star Source Points!
"Lady Manti, don't worry. We're still inquiring about Incense Beads and seeking purchases. We'll definitely supply you!"
Manti gritted her teeth: "I don't have much time! What about that girl? Has she not been brought yet? Why so slow? Would you be happy if I died?"
Mentioning this made Wenge's head ache even more!
Because the latest news showed...
Wenton was dead!
