Chapter 1557
Time passed slowly with a tense atmosphere.
Everyone on the merchant ship of the Jung family was constantly tense, except for the little girl Peggy and David.
Everyone knew that now was the most dangerous time.
They would be fine if they did not run into any space pirates.
Not only would the Jung family get huge benefits from this trip, but they would also reap rich rewards.
If they ran into space pirates, it would be hard to say whether they could survive, let alone enjoy the rewards.
In fact, most of the people on this merchant ship were hired by Marlee at a high price.
There were not many Jung family members here.
In order to attract the attention of the surrounding hostile forces and create an opportunity for Marlee to go on this
trip, the Jung family dispersed.
This time, the Jung family could be said to have put all their eggs in one basket.
It was make or break for the family.
At this time, the merchant ship was very close to the wormhole, and it would only take one day to reach it.
They did not run into any accidents so far.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThey did not see any patrol team sent by the Central Sacred Continent, nor did they meet the space pirate who
would rob merchant ships.
However, Marlee still did not let her guard down.
Only once they reached the entrance of the wormhole could she dare say that they were safe, otherwise anything
was possible.
Inside the merchant ship’s control room, an old man stood with Marlee as they stared at the merchant ship's
sensor.
If something approached the merchant ship, they would be able to notice it immediately and respond in.
This old man was Fraser Jung, the senior butler of the Jung family and a late Infinity Ranker.
At the same time, he was also Marlee's elder, but he was a distant relative of the Jung family, i
Marlee was the direct descendant of the Jung family and a Universe Realm peak Infinity Ranker.
Although the two were from different generations, there was still a gap in their identities and strength.
Therefore, when Fraser saw Marlee, he had to respectfully address her as Miss.
“Miss, we have crossed two-thirds of the most dangerous stretch. As long as we persist for another day, the
merchant ship will reach the entrance of the wormhole. We will definitely succeed this time. The Jung family will not
just go down like this and we will definitely make a comeback and return to our former glory,” Standing beside
Marlee, Fraser said a little excitedly.
They had been oppressed for far too long.
He had always dreamed that one day he would be able to make a comeback.
It could be said that the Jung family was fully prepared for this trip.
They learned from some sources that the Central Sacred Continent was recently short of raw ore they had on
board.
And these things were usually sold at low prices to some big trading houses, so they took away most of the
benefits.
The reason why no one dared to transport them to the Central Sacred Continent by themselves was that the
distance was too great, so it was inevitable that there would be some accidents on the way.
Another reason was because of the space pirates.
If they were not careful, not only would they lose everything, but they may also lose their life.
The big trading houses would not face such danger.
Generally, space pirates dared not rob the merchant ships of big trading houses.
However, this time, the Jung family had reached the point of desperation, so they decided to do it by themselves.
The business side of the Jung family was severely suppressed by the forces around them and was unable to make

If such a large family had no source of income, it would be difficult for them to survive for much longer.
Therefore, they decided to take a gamble and try their best to deliver this batch of raw ore.
As long as they could reach the Central Sacred Continent safely, they would surely sell the cargo of this ship at a
high price.
The Jung family could do many things with the money.
They would no longer be restricted to such a degree that there was no hope at all for them.
"We can’t relax until we reach the entrance of the wormhole. The space pirates may appear at any time until we
get there. Send an order to tell everyone to be on alert. As long as we can reach the Central Sacred Continent and
sell this batch of goods, I, Marlee Jung, will make sure everyone gets their benefits,” Marlee stared at the sensor
and said expressionlessly.
“Yes, Miss!” Fraser replied.
He turned and left after speaking.
He was going to notify the merchant ship’s staff one by one.
Shortly after Fraser left, Marlee's eyes narrowed suddenly.
She was initially already not relaxed, but now she immediately became more nervous.
