Chapter 89 - Chapter 89: Rescue

Surrounded by a multitude of aliens, Xu Ming didn't intend to stop. Instead, he shifted the battleground to the side to avoid accidentally harming the Earthlings.

The onlooking aliens didn't intervene; they were merely there to watch the spectacle. After all, no one wanted to get involved in such a mess.

"Beat him! Well done!"

"Such exquisite swordsmanship! This guy is too strong!"

"Hey Crowhead, your light bullets lack power, spit out more!"

"…"

These aliens enjoyed the excitement without concern for the magnitude of the situation, encouraging the commotion.

Chen Yu didn't plan on engaging in a drawn-out battle with the Crow Person, so he sheathed his laser sword and switched to the Snake Heart Sword.

Facing a Crow Person unable to grow giant, transforming into an Ultraman for combat would be a dishonor to the martial and sword techniques Chen Yu had practiced for so long.

Rushing towards the Crow Person, Chen Yu, with agile movements, dodged the light bullets fired at him.

Stepping in front of the Crow Person, Chen Yu swiftly drew the Snake Heart Sword, and with a flash of the blade, the Crow Person fell to the ground, its crimson eyes dimming.

The observing aliens gasped, noticing a deep sword mark on the Crow Person's chest.

Unexpectedly, Chen Yu had quickly subdued the opponent.

For a moment, all the aliens discussed Chen Yu's demonstrated strength.

Typically, aliens in human form don't possess any special abilities.

Thus, many had assumed Chen Yu would likely be defeated by the Crow Person.

Ignoring the surprise of those around him, Chen Yu began freeing the Earthlings from their bindings and removed the tape sealing their mouths.

The Earthlings were immensely grateful to Chen Yu, expressing their thanks repeatedly.

Chen Yu scanned the surroundings, relieved to see no one attempting to stop him.

"Follow me."

Holding the Snake Heart Sword, Chen Yu led the way towards the elevator entrance.

The rescued individuals followed closely, fearful of getting lost in the vast cosmos.

They never wanted to experience that sense of isolation and loneliness again.

The observant aliens made way for Chen Yu, realizing the seriousness of the Crow Person's injury, and no one wanted a similar fate.

Slaves in other traders' shops looked enviously at this scene.

No one wished to remain a slave, all dreaming of someone taking them away from this dreadful place.

Taking the rescued people up the transport elevator, Chen Yu arrived at the top floor.

Since Captain Senro's negotiations were still underway, Chen Yu didn't bother mentioning this incident.

He went straight to the Sains alien's shop and inquired, "How did you get the spaceship into this place?"

"Customer, there is a dedicated flight passage above our shop that connects to the universe outside the space station," the Sains alien replied enthusiastically.

After all, Chen Yu had just purchased a spaceship from them, making him a valued patron.

Chen Yu took out the card with ninety-nine million tokens and asked the Sains alien, "Can I use this passage? How many tokens will it cost?"

"Customer, if you wish to use it, we can offer it to you for free," the Sains alien said with a smile.

Maintaining good relations with potential clients is fundamental for any salesperson.

Chen Yu nodded, "Then, I'll buy something from you when I return. The commission should be yours, right?"

"Of course!" The Sains alien couldn't hide his joy, "Please bring out your spaceship, customer. The passage is always open for use."

"Alright."

Chen Yu nodded, locating the spaceship in his storage space on the virtual screen and pressed the release button.

A gust of wind nearly swept Chen Yu and the Sains alien away as the spaceship materialized on the display stand.

"Come aboard," Chen Yu gestured to the people behind him, "We're heading back to Earth."

The rescued individuals hurriedly climbed the ladder into the spaceship, finding it convenient for a group this size.

After ensuring everyone was onboard, Chen Yu too entered the spaceship.

The rescued humans stood quietly in the open space inside, touching nothing.

Pleased, Chen Yu noted these people only thought of returning home and wouldn't likely cause any trouble.

"You can sit anywhere there's space. Stay put and don't fiddle with anything," Chen Yu instructed, "We'll reach Earth soon."

"Benefactor, we will never forget your great kindness!"

Unexpectedly, the rescued Earthlings knelt down in unison, thanking Chen Yu.

Chen Yu hadn't anticipated this gesture and smiled, "Stand up. We're all Daxia people. Isn't it normal to help each other out when we see injustice in such unfamiliar places?"

Hearing Chen Yu's words, everyone realized the situation.

Chen Yu was also an Earthling, a Daxia person. Why was he appearing in the universe in this manner, even owning his own spaceship?

Could it be that many truths have been hidden from Earth?

However, this thought merely flashed through their minds. Being rescued was all that mattered; who cared about the rescuer's identity?

With Chen Yu's persuasion, everyone stood up, but under his direction, they sat on the floor.

There was no other option. The home-type spaceship was empty upon purchase, devoid of any furnishings.

How to decorate and furnish it required acquiring additional items.

This was exactly what Chen Yu wanted, fearing he couldn't adapt to alien decorative styles.

It was better to handle the decoration himself after returning.

Piloting the spaceship was straightforward. Chen Yu maneuvered it through the passage mentioned by the Sains alien, entering outer space.

Then, he had AI Three activate the star map and locate Earth.

Initially, Chen Yu enjoyed piloting his first spaceship, finding it novel.

However, he soon grew numb to the experience.

The universe consisted of starry skies and asteroids, either shrouded in darkness or lit with colorful lights.

"Activate the automatic piloting system."

Chen Yu directed his request to the suspended blue sphere.

"Understood, Master."

The blue sphere lit up, responding.

With the coordinates set, the spaceship began its automated journey towards Earth.
