Chapter 728: Chapter 728

Even though Demon Master Pang Ban is reckless, he’s not stupid enough to dare attack the World Association headquarters.

So when Pang Ban targeted the World’s No.1 Building, it was merely an outburst.

Because of this, three of the Heavenly Pool Twelve Evil perished. Maybe this will trigger a stand-off between the World Association and the Demon Palace, or perhaps under the pressure from Unrivaled City, there won’t be any confrontation.

Jiang Dali suddenly thought of something, his pupils shrinking, "Demon Master Pang Ban practices the Daoist Heart Demon Planting Technique, he is extremely ruthless. How could he truly do something that harms the interests of the Demon Palace and his own interests because of Yan Jing’an?

Unless he had already decided to confront the World Association... It seems that must be the case.

The Demon Palace, nurturing the Fang Yeyu Group, is expanding from east to north and is bound to conflict with the World Association sooner or later.

Pang Ban chose to strike at the Heavenly Pool Twelve Evil precisely when the World Association and Unrivaled City were at war, which may well be aiding Unrivaled City against the World Association.

If so, perhaps Demon Master Pang Ban has already reached some tacit agreement with the Unrivaled City Lord, Dugu Yifang."

Thinking this, Jiang Dali couldn’t help but smirk inwardly.

It would be marvelous if these massive parties started clashing, allowing his Black Wind Village to swiftly seize the opportunity to grow.

Upon returning, he could mobilize his troops.

Through Xiao Qiushui’s connections, aiding Yue Fei in resisting the Jin and Liao invasions, he could quickly break free from the Song State Government’s restraints and elevate his power to a higher level.

However, during this period, he still mustn’t neglect guarding against Zhu Wushi and Xiong Ba.

"Nie Feng and Bu Jingyun have already begun to make contact, and I should meet these two great weapons against Xiong Ba sooner, and Nie Renwang as well..."

Jiang Dali reined in his thoughts and logged out of the Jianghu Forum, noticing the breathing sounds of Wang Yuyan nearby.

"When did this girl come to lie down and sleep on the bed?"

He thought to himself with a slight "eh?" and his eyelids twitched.

Wang Yuyan, who was lying on the bed looking at him shockingly, saw Jiang Dali’s eyelids fluttering as if he was about to wake up, and her cheeks blushed.

She quickly sat up quietly, stealthily got off the bed, pretended to be sitting by the desk stretching, and acted like she just woke up from laying on the desk.

Jiang Dali, hearing Wang Yuyan’s movements, knew what she was doing and opened his eyes, saying,

"After discussing the Supreme Mysterious Scripture yesterday, didn’t you say it wasn’t proper for men and women to share a bed, and you wanted to sleep on the desk?"

Wang Yuyan turned around with an embarrassed and stunned look, innocently retorting, "But... but I did sleep on the desk last night."

She pointed at the desk, though her face had turned red-hot from lying.

Jiang Dali glanced at the bamboo pillow next to him, still holding a couple of strands of hair, picked them up, and then touched his own bald head. "Could it be that my hair grows this fast?"

"Perhaps those fell from my hair when I was arranging your bed last night."

Wang Yuyan quickly got up and headed for the door, "I’ll go fetch you some well water to wash your face and gargle."

Jiang Dali sat up in the bed and calmly said, "This is an island; there’s no well water. Let the servants handle it."

The red dawn light cast through the fog, illuminating the buildings and forests with a halo of misty light, while the sea breeze mixed with the forest aroma was refreshing and calming.

Servants from Hero Island, wearing yellow shirts, had prepared breakfast with Laba porridge and various seafood, and all the washing amenities were offered by hand.

However, the tranquil atmosphere was disturbed by the noisy Players who were already waiting outside the courtyard.

Seeing Jiang Dali finally awake and leaving the house, the Players, led by the plump member of Heroic Gate, all rushed to report on the situation at the Sea Shark Palace.

Jiang Dali symbolically distributed some rewards and sent a group of Players to keep watch around the island, showing an unflustered demeanor even as though the sky was falling.

Both the Long and Mu Island Masters learned of Jiang Dali getting up and immediately came personally to visit. It seemed they hadn’t slept all night, engrossedly studying the Supreme Mysterious Sword Scripture transmitted by Jiang Dali, but now they were also aware of the situation outside the island.

"Master Jiang, the Sea Shark Palace’s Helian Ba was once ambushed at sea and is a rare survivor of the Earth Tribulation.

Now his Power Realm is probably beyond this little old man.

Moreover, the cultivation techniques he practices, the Clone Demon Shadow and Divided Heart Palm, are formidable Heavenly Rank Absolute Skills, quite extraordinary," said Long Island Master solemnly.

"Indeed. The main issue is that this person is ambitious and cunning, which is why, despite inviting many heroes from the Martial World to our island over the years, we have still never provoked this man.

Unexpectedly, today he has surrounded the island and even brought Divine Fire Sect Leader Bai Ting with him, showing ill-intent," Mu Island Master continued, suddenly realizing that the person before him, the Black Wind Village Chief, could also be considered an ill-visitor.

Speaking of surrounding the island, Black Wind Village Chief was the first to do so, and Helian Ba was merely following suit.

However, they had already reached an agreement and understanding with the Black Wind Village Chief and considered themselves allies of Black Wind Village. With the Sea Shark Palace suddenly attacking, they naturally stood on the side of the Black Wind Village Chief unconsciously.

Jiang Dali carelessly pinched a conch shell, pulling out the succulent flesh and stuffing it into his mouth, casually saying, "Let’s first watch the Sea Shark Palace’s performance of landing on the island. When they have nearly depleted their forces trying to land or decide to give up, I’ll go sink their ships."

Long and Mu Island Masters exchanged looks unsure of how to respond.

They both just felt that such a mundane yet incredibly domineering statement could only be delivered so effortlessly and rightfully by the person before them.
