Chapter 208: A Great Opportunity Delivered to the Door!

It was not the Munro Guards.
Wang Ye hovered and looked at the behemoth in the distance. His eyes were sharp.
The design of the starship was completely different. It looked strange like it had been around for a long time. It was also covered in scars, and most importantly, it was huge.
It might not be as huge as the Moon Base, but it was more than a hundred times larger than a nuclear-powered starship.
Where did this starship come from? Why was it here?
There shouldn’t be any life planets in the Oort Cloud.
A series of question marks appeared in Wang Ye’s mind until he saw the totem symbol on the huge starship’s front.
A symbol of a skeleton in a hurricane!
Below the totem were two shining golden stars.
“Skeleton! Venus!” Wang Ye’s pupils constricted, and five words instantly appeared in his mind.
The cosmic pirates!
They were lone rangers who roamed the cosmic and belonged to no faction.
They were often made up of slaves and humans from colony planets, as well as many wanted criminals and prisoners who didn’t belong to the cosmic human race.
They were free and did everything based on their own interests.
Xin Ran’s expression changed. She had heard many rumors about the cosmic pirates. Falling into their hands was likely to be a fate worse than death.
Unfortunately, there was nowhere to hide, especially since this was a two-star cosmic pirate gang, which in other words meant that there must be a Dark Energy-level expert among them.
“Phew!” A strong wind blew past and the large starship landed.
Following this, a round plate that was shining with engravings slowly descended, a protective barrier around it.
A red-haired woman was the leader of a dozen people standing on the round plate.
Almost all of them were at the cosmic level!
They might not be able to compare to the Munro Guards, but at this moment, they had an overwhelming advantage.
“Hmm? Where are the Munro Guards?” The valiant red-haired Yu Min looked around. Her exquisite eyes glanced past Wang Ye, but she didn’t think much of this cosmic-level 1 human.
“They’re all dead.” Wang Ye looked at her calmly.
He was very surprised. To think the captain of a two-star pirate group was a young girl. She looked young and innocent, unlike those female assistants who were quite open-minded.
Either she was a super genius with powerful strength or there was someone behind her, most likely her father or godfather.
Judging from the respect and care the skinny man with the strongest aura showed her, it should be the latter.
Wang Ye’s thoughts raced.
He knew very well that this encounter was both a crisis and an opportunity!
“How did he die?” Yu Min soon found Munro Uttina’s body.
Her beautiful eyes lit up as she flew down.
She landed on Munro Uttina, who had been stripped of all his equipment.
“He’s really dead?” She exclaimed in surprise.
“Yes, I killed him.” Wang Ye appeared next to her, keeping a distance.
“You? Impossible,” Yu Min smiled, not hiding the contempt in her smile.
Wang Ye didn’t explain too much. “Why are you here?” He asked.
“Why should 1 tell you?” Yu Min raised her chin and narrowed her eyes at Wang Ye. “You don’t look like a good person.”
She was just a cosmic pirate, so what right did she have to say that?
“Are you a good person?” Wang Ye instantly switched his body’s control to tingling.
” Of course…” Yu Min’s beautiful eyes widened. She retreated abruptly and drew her sword, unleashing her combat energy. “Peeping on me? You’re asking for death!”
!!!
“Wait!” Wang Ye said immediately.
This was the first time Lingling’s Mind-reading failed.
It was not that the female pirate was too strong, but that she possessed a very special and powerful talent.
“Speak! What last words do you have to say?” Yu Min’s beautiful eyes were filled with killing intent. She stared at Wang Ye. “I knew you weren’t a good person. 1 knew you were after me!”
She was so shameless…
“I want to join you!” Wang Ye quickly activated Nante’s talent.
?
“We don’t accept any perverts!” Yu Min shook her head.
Who was a pervert? How could she tell?
Wang Ye cursed in his heart.
It’s just a misunderstanding,” Wang Ye said. “I thought you were a vicious cosmic pirate, so I offended you. 1 didn’t expect you to come out of mud unsoiled and be so kind.”
“What’s with the mud? I don’t understand.” Yu Min glanced at him, and her killing intent instantly dissipated. “You’re so cultured. Don’t think 1’11 let you off just because you say something nice.”
As expected, she gobbled down kind words.
As a veteran, Wang Ye quickly grasped how to deal with the red-haired girl in front of him.
“In all honesty, let me tell you the whole story. My brother and I escaped from a colony planet and stole the Colony Inspector’s starship. As a result, we were chased by the Munro Guards…” Wang Ye recounted the entire process.
When dealing with such a sincere girl, sincerity was a sure-kill skill.
As expected, Yu Min’s expression alternated between indignation, sympathy, and shock. It was completely different from before.
“It hasn’t been easy for you two…” Yu Min was very emotional after hearing Wang Ye’s words. Then, she suddenly remembered what had happened just now and said warily, “How do 1 know you’re not lying to me?”
“There are two female assistants and two chief engineers still around,” Wang
Ye said. “You’ll know after you ask them.”
“Fine, I’ll trust you for now. Wait here,” Yu Min said to Wang Ye. “If I’m sure you’re telling the truth, I’ll allow you two brothers to join us.”
“Alright.” Wang Ye smiled.
It wasn’t an impromptu idea. Rather, it had been carefully thought out.
If it was a vicious pirate group, he would definitely not join.
After all, human hearts were unpredictable, especially cosmic pirates. Disregarding all else, the wealth he had on him was probably enough to tempt them.
However, this red-haired girl was different.
She gave him a feeling that she knew nothing about the sufferings of the world.
It was hard to imagine that she was a cosmic pirate and even the strongest Dark Energy-level expert on her team obeyed her every word.
Therefore, if he could join this pirate group and leave, the chances of success would be much higher than if he escaped on his own.
Just as Xin Ran had said, it would be troublesome if the Munro family really locked onto their position through the starship’s serial number.
In comparison, although the pirates were dangerous, their situation was better than his.
He had to leave the solar system and the Munro family’s territory!
The Milky Way was huge, and so was the cosmic. Where could he not go?
This was a great opportunity that had delivered itself to his door!

“The two of them really wiped out an entire team of the Munro Guards?” Yu Min was surprised.
“That’s right. I’ve already questioned the female assistant who survived. These two brats from the colony planet are quite impressive.” The old woman smiled.
“They’re talents but also time bombs. Such geniuses are arrogant,” Uncle Feng said in a deep voice. “It’s impossible for them to not look down on the pirates. He just wants to use us to escape.”
The old woman nodded. “Xiao Feng is right. We don’t need to carry a time bomb with us.”
Yu Min said nothing. Her beautiful eyes looked at the blood on the ground. She could imagine how cruel and intense the battle was.
She recalled what that pervert had told her…
She was deeply moved when she learned that what the pervert said was true.
“Young miss, don’t cause trouble.” Uncle Feng knew her character too well.
The white-haired old woman narrowed her eyes. “The best way is to kill him. The Munro Guards have quite a lot of Dark Energy-level equipment, and they are all in his hands. If we kill him, we can at least get dozens or even hundreds of cosmic dollars. It’s far better than bringing a time bomb with us.”
Don’t say anymore, granny. I can’t do such a thing. My dream is to become a pirate king like Lord Qianjiu,” Yu Min said. “Not a ruthless pirate like Dad.”
A seven-star Pirate King…
The young miss was really daring.
Uncle Feng and Granny Bai looked at each other.
“So you want to take him in?” Uncle Feng roughly understood.
Yu Min nodded. “If Lord Qianjiu were to encounter such a situation, he wouldn’t hesitate. He would even help him kill the Munro Guards! Although 1 can’t do that much, I’ve done my best to help him.”
“What a pity.” The white-haired old woman clicked her tongue.
She and Xiao Feng were only responsible for protecting the young miss and providing her with some advice, but they would not interfere with her decisions.
Although a hundred cosmic dollars was a huge sum in a two-star pirate group, it was nothing in a three-star pirate group.
“If Young Miss has decided, 1 have no objections.” Uncle Feng nodded.
Yu Min smiled brightly. Her messy red hair was especially dazzling.
“The Hurricane Pirates are different from other cosmic pirate groups. We won’t do anything illegal,” Yu Min said to Wang Ye. “We have principles.”
Wang Ye nodded.
The commander’s personality determined the way a pirate group did things.
“I don’t care if you’re sincere in wanting to join the Hurricane Pirates, but as long as you’re on the ship, you have to fulfill your duty as a member and follow us on our expeditions.” Yu Min stared at Wang Ye.
“No problem.” Wang Ye laughed.
“You can keep staying with us, or you can disembark after leaving the Munro family’s territory. We won’t force you, but we also won’t change our original itinerary because of you, understand?” Yu Min said.
“Thank you.” Wang Ye looked at the valiant red-haired girl.
Some had superficial kindness, but her kindness came from the bottom of her heart, even if she was just a cosmic pirate.
“You’re welcome.” Yu Min looked at him. “We’re going to dismantle all three of the nuclear-powered starships. Do you have any objections?”
“Be careful not to be tracked.” Wang Ye said.
Yu Min smiled beautifully. “We have plenty of talents in the Hurricane Pirates. You don’t have to tell us about removing traces. It’s very easy. We have a lot of people who are good at modifying starships and repairing parts.”
Good heavens. Were they a pirate group or a starship modification team?
“Any more questions?” Yu Min raised her eyebrows.
“When do we set off, commander?” Wang Ye asked.
“What’s the hurry? Wait for my subordinates to finish their work!” Yu Min raised her hand and said, “Don’t worry. Since I’ve asked you to join us, just relax and stay put. Uncle Feng and Granny Bai are very experienced.”
“From now on, you’re mine!” Yu Min patted Wang Ye’s shoulder. “Work hard!”
Wang Ye glanced at the back of her fair hand.
He didn’t expect that he would be able to have some delicious food in the cosmic one day. Perhaps it would be a good journey..
