Li Yao wanted to take a gamble.
The carrier was not of a high level. It was shipping nobodies from the riot in the mine. The best of them were a few Immortal Cultivators in the Core Formation Stage. Both the Fist King and Xiahou Wuxin were much stronger than them. They should not attract much attention from Manjusaka.
Besides, Manjusaka was planning the epic quest to fish up 'Starlight' once and for all and had no extra energy to spare on a minor explosion accident of such a carrier.
Furthermore, it was anything but unusual for a starship to be seriously damaged after encountering a cosmic storm during the voyage.
Therefore, Li Yao estimated that the carrier would stay in the dock of Manjusaka for at least ten days. There probably would not be enough hands to perform a full maintenance on it at the beginning.
