Now, the Little Flaming Firebird has become a powerful helper in their hunts. Every time it flies out, it brings back prey. Though this little creature is not as fiery as its mother, its sharp beak and claws are growing stronger and gradually coming into use, leading it to always have some gains every time it ventures out.

During meals, Yanran would often consult Jiang Cheng about issues she encountered in her training. They would discuss these while eating, but today, Guo Ran lost interest in conversation because the Little Flaming Firebird had not returned on time.

They quietly ate their grilled meat, with Guo Ran constantly looking at the sky.

Suddenly, Jiang Cheng turned his head, and Yanran, after concentrating for a moment, also grabbed her bow.

In mid-air, the Little Flaming Firebird was flapping its wings frantically, being closely pursued by two space shuttles.

Seeing Jiang Cheng and Yanran, the Little Flaming Firebird dove down from the sky, followed by the two shuttles landing and kicking up clouds of dust.

Guo Ran protected the Little Flaming Firebird behind her. In the process of raising it, her feelings for the Little Flaming Firebird deepened. She already liked it, but now she viewed it as her own child.

Given the situation, it was clear that the people in those two shuttles had ill intentions towards the Little Flaming Firebird, causing its panic.

Someone dared to treat her precious one this way! Yanran gritted her teeth and thought she wanted to see exactly who they were!

With the gradual strengthening of Yanran's spiritual power, she was filled with immense confidence in her skills. Hunting various monsters had become an easy task for her, and she was eager to challenge more formidable beings.

However, after a few rounds of sparring in archery with spiritual power enhancement against Jiang Cheng, she decided it was better not to show off unnecessarily in front of her teacher to maintain her confidence.

Although Jiang Cheng seemed idle and carefree on the Nameless Planet, he still had some thoughts about how to leave this planet.

Without the mental coordinates he established on various planets, he couldn't traverse the universe freely.

The universe is vast and boundless, and if he wanted to rely on blind luck to find his mental coordinates, it would be an infinitely smaller chance than finding a needle in a haystack.

Imagine a ship in an expansive sea without a lighthouse—attempting to find a harbor by luck is so very unlikely.

Moreover, this is the universe—vast and without end, much larger and more perilous than the sea.

In the universe, there are countless planets of various sizes, most without higher life forms, like a planet he once visited that had only one kind of life: giant caterpillars.

Similarly, among these planets, there are many powerful beings like Jiang Cheng, and some might even be stronger than he is.

Jiang Cheng has always been a calm person, confident in his abilities but never arrogantly assuming he's the best in the universe.

Furthermore, the universe is filled with unexpected dangers. Some are obvious, while others lurk in shadows and can cause fatal harm if overlooked.

Like last time when Jiang Cheng encountered an electromagnetic storm in space.

There are also different layers of space with various properties.

Jiang Cheng had experienced such scenarios, and even now, he feels fortunate to have escaped from that space.

Back then, Jiang Cheng was traveling through space when he was suddenly drawn into a space with a strong gravitational pull. It was an endless expanse, seemingly a microcosm of the universe. He kept teleporting within it but could not escape, unable to find his mental coordinates within to exit.

Who knows how long went by—whether a month or two, or even half a year—until Jiang Cheng finally caught a faint signal from his mental coordinate and managed to escape that space.

Thinking back on it, Jiang Cheng can't help but feel a chill. He later deduced that the space was likely moving, possibly moving close to a planet where he had mental coordinates, which is why he had the opportunity to catch his coordinate's signal. If the space had been stationary, he might have been stuck there endlessly, day after day, year after year.

Now, he once again finds himself without his mental coordinates, trapped on this Nameless Planet. Jiang Cheng believes the most reliable way to leave is to conduct a thorough search of the planet. Since the people there once contacted its other planets, there must be some methods or equipment for communication left behind.

Even if this planet faced an asteroid impact and humanity nearly went extinct, those machines or devices are less easy to destroy than humans. Even if they are damaged, there should be various fragments or remnants left, right?

The sudden appearance of those two space shuttles made his heart leap for joy. These shuttles couldn't possibly make long-distance flights in the universe on their own.

The fact they arrived on this Nameless Planet indicates they came from their mothership, which could certainly find stronger signal coordinates. Whatever their purpose or motive for coming to this planet, it exponentially increases the possibility of leaving this Nameless Planet.

Seeing the people disembark from those two shuttles, Jiang Cheng felt they weren't good people. Although Jiang Cheng had long passed the age of judging by appearances, these people's faces convinced him his judgment was correct.

With sinister faces, bulging muscles, eyes shining with ferocity, every movement exuding an air of "Provoke me" or "I'm not afraid of anyone," and bearing various weapons on their shoulders, they swaggered towards them.

Jiang Cheng's judgment was not wrong; these people were smugglers in the universe. To avoid capture by cosmic law enforcement, they set meeting locations on remote planets to ensure safety, and coincidentally, this planet was the Nameless Planet where Jiang Cheng and Yanran resided.

The smugglers had completed their business and were ready to leave when they spotted the Little Flaming Firebird. The beautiful and unique bird immediately caught their attention; capturing it would fetch a high price from eager buyers.
