Completion reward: Access to a high tier academy secret realm]

Kailen stared at the mission screen before him. Why was he always getting impossible missions? Sigh..

He had already left the academy. He was already in a spaceship headed to the Sacred Corrugation Imperial Empire.

Kailen had purchased a very expensive spaceship from the academy stores. This was a spaceship that could resist 4 law attacks from any supreme stage dao level lifeform.

" Quite expensive. But at least, in case there’s an assassination attack on my life, it can buy me some time for me to escape. I should also change my appearance at least till I get to the Sacred Corrugation Empire’s Imperial Sector," Kailen muttered. He took an appearance morphing elixir. In a moment, his build and facial features changed completely.

"Don’t want anyone identifying me, now that there are obviously bounties placed on my back by the powerhouses behind some of the high rankers I killed in the academy. However, I have no choice but to reveal myself when I get to the Sacred Corrugation Empire’s Imperial Sector. What a hassle. Way to place a target on my back."

Kailen’s eyes suddenly narrowed. "A dead planet? No, there are several of them."

The planets in the vicinity he was currently in had no life. But there were remnants of past civilisations on some of them.

The planets were completely dead. Activating his elemental mirroring, Kailen saw no universe energy fluctuations from the planet.

" This is not the outcome of a war. Vimodials were here. They attacked, plundered the life force of the residents and absorbed the planetary cores of these planets, leading to the death of the planets. These Vimodials are terrifying."

Kailen quickly made a decision. He made a space tear in front of the spaceship. The spaceship went through the space tear. Kailen appeared some light years away from his previous vicinity.

" That was close. Who knew whether or not some dangerous vimodials were in the vicinity. The mid tier civilisations are really dangerous," Kailen sighed deeply.

Meanwhile, several light years away from Kailen’s current location, seven individuals were seated in a large spaceship in a relaxing manner. This spaceship seemed more advanced than the one Kailen was currently in. It was a testament that these people were not ordinary.

Several fleets of ships followed them.

There was a drawing of a red skull on all the spaceships.

In the spaceship with the seven individuals, one of them spoke elatedly.

" Boss, our gains this time were really phenomenal. To think we managed to capture so many weaklings. The bosses at HQ will really reward us well."

" Indeed. The Skull Chamber of Commerce will not hold back this time. After all, slave trade is very profitable in commerce. When we head back, I’m even thinking of retiring with the money I will get," the boss replied with an elated sigh.

" Boss Dreadmaw, if you retire, what will the rest of us do?"

" Boss, we’ve followed you all this while. You are the one who recruited us into the Skull Chamber of Commerce and taught us everything we know. How can you suddenly retire?"

The members of the group spoke their hearts out. If the boss suddenly retired, what would they do?

" Hehe," Dreadmaw felt touched by these rascals. 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖

" I’m getting a senior executive position, so I won’t have to venture out anymore. It’s akin to retirement, isn’t it?"

The group members suddenly revealed happy expressions for Dreadmaw, however, they felt sad at the same time. It seemed they would be assigned to a new team leader soon.

" That’s very nice to hear, boss."

" Congratulations, boss."

" Yeah, we should throw a party for you when we return to HQ."

Suddenly...

[Rank 4 intermediate stage Dao level Lifeform detected four light years away]

The AI of the spaceship suddenly announced.

" Ho... it seems we’ve got some big fish to catch," Dreadmaw’s eyes glinted with a wicked light.

" Boss, we need to get this fellow. The money we will get in addition to the amount we will make for the slaves we have captured will be enough for the rest of us to retire."

"Mmm," Dreadmaw nodded.

As a rank 1 supreme stage dao level lifeform, a mere rank 4 intermediate stage Dao level lifeform was easy for them to capture. This hunt had really been a fortunate one.

"Let me handle this," Dreadmaw said. A majestic fiery energy brewed around him.

Quickly, an extremely large bell made from the law of fire manifested outside their spaceship.

The large fire law bell shot towards the direction of the spaceship four light years away.

It was so fast. It was as if the large fire bell had disappeared...

Meanwhile, back in Kailen’s spaceship, he suddenly felt an extreme threat encumber him.

[Lethal threat approaching from four light years away. Initiating defense proto-]

Booom...

Booom...

Booom

" Shit.." Kailen revealed an expression of panic.

He quickly made a tear in space and disappeared from the spaceship.

The moment he appeared several light years away, he made various tears in space and disappeared further.

Kailen landed on a moon, his back completely drenched in sweat.

What the hell had just happened?

He didn’t even have the time to register what had occurred or who had attacked him. But he knew that had the last attack connected, he would have ended up in a very miserable state.

" Space pirates. They were most likely space pirates. By now, the spaceship is completely destroyed. Damn, I didn’t even sense the attack or have the time to react. Had it not been for the spaceship buying some time for me, and the warning of the spaceship AI, I would have been dead by now! The attack is definitely from a supreme stage Dao level Lifeform," Kailen squinted his eyes.

"They could be hunting me right now. Let’s send the shadow hounds to scout the vicinity and see the way forward. I don’t want to head towards a direction they could be coming from."
