High-Martial World: System Arrives 30 Years Late

Chapter 680: Chapter 452: Alien Race Alliance, Celestial Cloud Royal Family, Demon God Gnashing His Teeth

(The previous Chapter has been modified)

Wavering in the darkness, the air rippled like water, and before the figure fully appeared, a hurried voice came first.

"Your Excellency, honorable sir... I bear no hostility, nor will I be your enemy."

The voice trembled, carrying extreme shock and terror, as if afraid of being casually slain by Su Mu at any moment.

Su Mu narrowed his eyes slightly; the opponent’s Stealth Technique was exquisite, but this wasn’t the first time Su Mu encountered such a sophisticated Stealth Technique.

The last time was Yuri.

At present, there was no crisis warning from the Sword Momentum, indicating that the other party wasn’t lying.

Simultaneously, this time gave Su Mu a feeling somewhat similar to that of Yuri. Although the Stealth Techniques they used were different, there should be some connection.

The alien race in front might be related to Yuri, someone from the Roy Clan?

Thinking of this, Su Mu’s face did not reveal a trace; he merely looked on calmly, waiting for the other party to give an explanation.

Feeling Su Mu’s deep gaze.

The person who appeared trembled all over, witnessing first-hand how Su Mu wiped out the entire convoy of the Celestial Cross Province with a single strike, a strike performed without even using a weapon—the shock in this alien’s heart was indescribable.

And at this moment, this shock turned into terror.

It was an alien with entirely dark blue skin, tall and slender, but with ordinary features and long black hair.

Dark blue skin, long black hair?

Su Mu quickly dismissed the idea that the other party was from the Roy Clan; the alien before him likely had human blood, clearly a hybrid.

"Honorable sir, I am Haley Shady, a member of the Alien Race Alliance."

Alien Race Alliance?

A similar organization to the Blue Star Alliance?

Su Mu remained silent, but Andy immediately continued speaking, with an exceptionally sincere tone, "Honorable sir, I previously noticed the convoy from the Celestial Cross Province was tracking you, so I followed out of the city as well..."

"My time is precious; I don’t want to hear any nonsense." Su Mu interrupted.

Andy swallowed water in fear, "Sir, I wish to propose a transaction; if you hand over that batch of living beings you acquired, we can try our best to meet your conditions."

"What if I don’t?"

Su Mu spoke faintly, as he suspected that Andy and the people from the Celestial Cross Province he had just exterminated were after someone in that batch of living beings.

When picking up Xiaoluo, Su Mu had noticed a child far calmer than others among the children in the iron cage; while the others were dodging in fear, only that child silently watched him.

Sure enough, Andy quickly spoke up.

"Sir, don’t act rashly; we only wish to rescue one of the children..."

"Who is it?"

Andy hesitated briefly and then replied, "That child is a descendant of the Celestial Cloud Royal Family; we were ordered by our organization to retrieve the royal offspring lost in Loris City."

Celestial Cloud Royal Family?

One of the Eight Great Alien Royal Families, internal strife among the royal families?

Moreover, Andy lied, or rather, didn’t tell the whole truth.

In a Desolate Thought state, Su Mu could clearly see what she was thinking; the royal descendant of the Celestial Cloud Family was real but not complete, as what Andy intended wasn’t to retrieve but merely to bring the person back to the so-called Alien Race Alliance.

However, these were irrelevant to Su Mu; he had no interest in any royal affairs, yet since they dared to target a royal member, this so-called Alien Race Alliance must be significant.

Su Mu initially intended to form a force, not only to seize resources but also to gather intelligence in secret—now that an opportunity presented itself, how could it not be taken advantage of?

Upon this thought, Su Mu did not directly reply to Andy, instead he asked casually, "Do you know Yuri?"

Yuri?!

Hearing this name, Andy was first stunned, then her body trembled.

Yuri?

Isn’t this the alias often used by Roy Yuliss during his travels?

Realizing what Andy was thinking, Su Mu was first startled, then surprised; it was truly an unexpected joy to have inadvertently encountered an alien who knew Yuri.

However, Yuri was not her real name; it was an alias, and her real name was Roy Yuliss.

"Roy Yuliss, similar Stealth Technique, the family aligns as well, it’s likely that person indeed."

This was within Su Mu’s expectations; after all, when he traded with that person, he also used Lin Peng. But even so, Su Mu didn’t have much hope of directly finding an alien who knew Yuri, it was just a casual question.

If Andy didn’t know Yuri, Su Mu would then raise the issue of finding a flesh body. Since he found an alien who knew Yuri, finding a flesh body could be discussed when meeting Yuri again.

Given what Su Mu knew of Yuri, her status and capability were very strong, and with her help, the probability of finding a flesh body would greatly increase.

"Honorable sir, do you... know Yuliss... Lady Yuri?"

"We came to know each other through conflict; if you wish to take someone away, I have a condition... pass a message to Yuri, asking her to come find me, and we’ll arrange to meet in... Bandar City."

"Honorable sir..." Andy wanted to say more, but Su Mu directly turned around.

Seeing this, Andy hastily asked.

"May I know how to address you?"

"Tell her Lin, she will know it’s me."

...

"Welcome, my lord!"

Pier spoke respectfully, his heart surging with raging waves.

He was once of the Eight Great Royal Families. With his mindset at that time, if anyone dared to seize something he desired or even humiliated him, he would undoubtedly order his men to act; otherwise, how could he swallow that indignation?
