Unparalleled After Ten Consecutive Draws

chapter-711
"Here are the Blood Tribe members that you've killed, pretty boy." Baili Xue took out a bunch of bloodied fangs and tossed them in front of Chu Kuangren.
Chu Kuangren looked at them and kept them inside his Yin and Yang Ring.
Those fangs were enough to be exchanged for a few combat merits.
Although it was still far from Shang Honghua's numbers, this was only his first expedition.
"How far are we from Asteroid Belt Seven?""Soon. We'll get there by today. But seeing that we've encountered a bunch of those Blood Tribe members before we're close by, the battle has truly gotten intense here."
Baili Xue chuckled.
Soon, the crowd arrived at Asteroid Belt Seven.
Countless meteorites and warship wrecks could be seen floating everywhere. Among the gusts of cosmic dust, there were several asteroids of varying sizes in the vicinity.
However, most of those asteroids were deserted and void of life. At the center of all other asteroids stood a dark yellow asteroid with a diameter of ten thousand kilometers.
That yellow asteroid was where they were heading to.
"Arriving at Asteroid Seven.""Good. Let's stop somewhere nearby."
Shang Honghua ordered.
As such, Baili Quan moved the warship to another asteroid nearby Asteroid Seven. One by one, the Redshirt Army got out of the warship.
Once Shang Honghua put away the warship, she said, "Move out!"
Everyone immediately dashed to Asteroid Seven.
Moments later, they arrived at the surface of the asteroid. The surroundings were desolate and filled with tumultuous surges of spiritual qi. It was clearly not a great place for living beings to survive.
"Alright, let's do this. Our priority is to find as many Chaos Emblems as we can. If any of you encounter those from the Blood Tribe, kill them right away!" Shang Honghua uttered to the others.
"Yes!"
"We should head over there."
Chu Kuangren suddenly pointed somewhere and said.
Shang Honghua frowned a little. "Why?"
"There are three Chaos Emblems over there."
"Do you have a way to detect nearby treasures?"
"I do."
Chu Kuangren nodded.
Shang Honghua hesitated for a while. "Alright, let's go."
Everyone set off in the direction Chu Kuangren stated and soon arrived at a barren mountain range, where they found three gray-colored stones that contained Chaotic qi within them. Those were Chaos Emblems.
"Chaotic qi, huh? It's been a while."
Chu Kuangren recalled the time when he rigorously absorbed Chaotic qi while trapped inside the Slumbering Emperor Coffin. All thanks to the Chaos Daoist Celestial's sacrifice of his cultivation base, there was a tremendous amount of Chaotic qi that enabled him to build up a Prominent-grade Emperor's Core.
The amount of Chaotic qi contained inside the Chaos Emblem was certainly incomparable to back in the Slumbering Emperor Coffin. Nevertheless, it was still dense enough to increase the cultivation level of an ordinary Emperor at great speed.
"What do you plan to do with these Chaos Emblems?"
Shang Honghua asked Chu Kuangren.
Since it was Chu Kuangren who found those Chaos Emblems using his Treasure Locating Skill, Shang Honghua had no reason to object should he wished to keep them himself.
"These are Low-tier Chaos Emblems. I'm already a Heavenly Imperial, so I don't have much use for them. How about this? You guys can take any Low-tier and Mid-tier Chaos Emblems we find in the future. I will take the High-tier ones and above instead."
Chu Kuangren said after pondering for a while.
Shang Honghua fell silent. "Many thanks."
She knew very well how large of a role Chu Kuangren's Treasure Locating Skill would play in a place like this. If they were to search for it on their own, they might not find one even after a month.
By following Chu Kuangren, they would certainly be able to find more of it.
"Oh my, you do know how to express your gratitude."
Chu Kuangren chuckled. "I've been staying in the command headquarters for quite some time, so you can take this as a token of my gratitude for your hospitality."
He tossed the Chaos Emblems to her.
Shang Honghua felt complicated as she looked at the Chaos Emblems in her hand.
She had been holding a grudge against Chu Kuangren because he held back during their previous fight. However, as the days went by, those begrudging feelings in her gradually dissipated. Now, he has even provided such great help to her.
'No matter how I think of it, I am being a little too petty.'
Shang Honghua was ashamed.
"It's the aura of the Chaos Emblem."
"Haha, found it."
"Huh? It's the ones from the Firmament Star. Attack!"
At this time, everyone was suddenly surrounded by a group of cultivators.
Those cultivators have the same reddish eyes as the Blood Beast Tribe members from before. However, unlike the ferocious-looking Blood Beast Tribe members, they looked like ordinary humans from the outside. The only difference was the pair of black webbed wings they had on their backs.
"It's the Blood Tribe cultivators."
The Redshirt Army immediately took out their weapons and prepared for battle.
"Attack!"
There was no need to say anything whenever the cultivators of the Firmament Star and Blood Tribe met as it would always end in a gruesome battle.
Since the Blood Tribe cultivators attacking were below an Emperor's level, they were no match for Shang Honghua and her troops. Soon, they were all wiped out.
After the battle, the Redshirt Army cut off a piece of the Blood Tribe cultivators' webbed wings. Although only a few combat merits could be achieved from it, it was still better than nothing.
The next few days, Chu Kuangren continued using his Treasure Locating Skill to locate the Chaos Emblems and lead the RedShirt Army to collect them.
In just two days, they had obtained at least a dozen Chaos Emblems, which greatly delighted everyone in the Redshirt Army.
"Sure enough, we're right to bring Brother Chu along. His techniques are simply remarkable."
"That's right. Just look at how many Chaos Emblems we've got in just a few days. When has an expedition ever gone this smoothly before?"
"It would be nice if we could go on an expedition with Brother Chu from now on. Not only does he have good looks, but he's also strong and good at finding treasures…"
"In your dreams."
"Then again, it's possible. Think about it. If our Commodore Junior has a good relationship with Brother Chu, doesn't that mean we'll be able to go on expeditions with him in the future?"
Somewhere in an empty terrain, the Redshirt Army was resting after their battle with the Blood Tribe. In no time, Everyone started gossiping.
"Shut up, you guys."
Shang Honghua shot a glare towards Baili Xue and the others. However, Baili Xue giggled. "Commodore Junior, after all these years, this pretty boy is the only one we think is worthy to be with you. Are you seriously going to let him go?"
"I won't concern myself with things like this before taking my revenge."
Shang Honghua said apathetically as she looked at Chu Kuangren, who was poking the corpses of the Blood Tribe cultivators nearby.
Has she fallen for Chu Kuangren?
Well, with how remarkable of a man Chu Kuangren was, even a woman like Shang Honghua would certainly fall for him.
However, she was too obsessed with getting revenge. Before taking revenge, she felt that having too many unnecessary emotions would only hinder her cultivation progress. Hence, she could only suppress those feelings deep in her.
"Commodore Junior, aren't you tired of living like this?"
Baili Xue sighed and looked at Shang Honghua with sorrow in her eyes. The other members of her Redshirt Army felt bad for her too.
"That's because this is my motivation to live."
Shang Honghua replied.
"Alright, forget about it. Since you don't want him, then I hope you don't mind if I do. Hehe. I'd never miss a chance to play with a pretty boy like him." Baili Xue smiled playfully.
"Whatever."
Baili Xue got up and walked to Chu Kuangren. He was studying the Blood Tribe cultivator's corpse all this while and had no idea what they were talking about earlier.
"What are you doing, Brother Chu?"
"I'm studying the Blood Tribe member's physique."
Chu Kuangren replied.
He had already studied the Blood Beast Emperor's physique previously and had fully understood it. Now, he was studying the physique of the other Blood Tribe members, intending to see what their difference was despite being a part of the Blood Tribe.
Indeed, he did discover something new.
"Researching is good. By fully understanding ourselves and our enemies only can we be victorious in every battle."
Baili Xue said casually. Furthermore, she had no idea what Chu Kuangren would gain by doing this. After all, she knew nothing about the subject either.
"I bet you heard everything we were talking about earlier."
"I did not."
Chu Kuangren immediately denied it.
"What do you think about our Commodore Junior?"
Baili Xue asked curiously.
"She's fine, but it's impossible for us to be together, so you can stop playing matchmaker, Sister Baili," Chu Kuangren replied with a chuckle.
"Why is it impossible?"
"I already have a family of my own," Chu Kuangren replied.
"Oh…"
Baili Xue's mouth was wide open upon hearing this.
The members of the Redshirt Army, who were eavesdropping nearby, were even more stunned to hear this. In a split second, all of them looked dull, as if their hearts had been broken.
