Chapter 1591: Chapter 1591
In the Grand Hall of the Sea King Sect’s Sect Master, a group of people dressed in various clothing sat inside, the atmosphere rather tense.
Outside the hall, a group of burly men held knives in their hands, standing outside one by one waiting for news.
Yama consoled the Pirate Sect Master Ding Mu, saying, "Brother Ding, don’t rush. This matter must be considered carefully and never recklessly. Think about it, we have five sects under our command, all with considerable strength. Yet we were completely defeated in a battle against these people, and even our Three Great Elders fell into their hands. The strength of these people is absolutely not to be underestimated."
Su Quan, the Sect Master of the Sea Spirit Sect, smoked from a jade pipe and said, "Brother Yan is absolutely right. The Southern Ridge offshore has always been our territory, and suddenly a group of experts appears. We still don’t know what their purpose is!"
Ding Mu, frustrated, said, "What purpose do they have other than wanting to annex us? Having killed so many of our people, they still dare to send people to extort us! Are we supposed to swallow this indignation?"
Yama said, "Have you considered why such a major sect would settle here? Why did they choose Jade Island? Could there be something attractively valuable on this island?"
Ding Mu cooled down and, alongside Su Quan, stared at Yama, asking, "What do you think, Brother Yan?"
Yama said, "I don’t know if you gentlemen have heard? Some time ago, an Enlightenment event occurred in a Secret Realm at sea. Not only did the forces of Penglai, Yingzhou, and Fangzhang go there, but half of the sea’s Loose Cultivators did too. It’s rumored that during the scramble for opportunities, fights were quite fierce, and many experts died. As soon as this incident occurred, a group of experts appeared on our Jade Island. Could there be a connection between these two events?"
Ding Mu said, "What’s the connection? It was just a coincidence."
Su Quan remained silent, staring at Yama thoughtfully.
Yama smirked, "Even if there’s no direct connection, we can create one. Have we considered spreading the word that Jade Island contains the opportunities previously opened during the Secret Realm’s Enlightenment? How would the major forces react? Would they still sit idly by?"
Su Quan laughed, "Brother Yan is thinking of using a borrowed sword?"
Yama chuckled, "Just leveraging the situation. Although our Three Islands’ power is considered top-tier among ordinary people, in the Cultivation World, we’re merely a second-rate sect, far from a first-rate one. Whatever decision we make must be taken with utmost care to ensure we’re aboard a ship that sails for ten thousand years!"
"Schemes and plots, you truly excel in them!"
Ding Mu was convinced and asked them, "Even so, we must do something, right? Otherwise, the little ones below will underestimate us?"
Yama replied, "Plan first, act later. Let’s immediately send people to Jade Island to investigate truth from fiction, understand their situation. Whatever terms they propose, our Three Houses will initially agree, endeavoring to buy time."
"Fine, I’ll endure a bit longer. If things don’t go as planned, our Pirate Sect will face them alone."
Ding Mu slapped the table, stood up, and left with his subordinates.
Yama and Su Quan smiled, promptly instructed someone to draft a negotiation document and sent it to Jade Island.
In one day, everyone gradually adapted to the place.
The island has a beautiful environment, comparable to the size of two mundane Penglai Islands, so even with more people, it doesn’t feel crowded.
Hua Qianmo wandered around with a group of people, found Long Fei at night, showed him a planning map, and asked for his opinion.
The map showed the island divided into three rings centered on the Dragon Palace, connected by wide stone roads from the inner to outer circles.
Each ring had residential halls, resting parks, Scripture Pavilions, and Martial Arts Fields, all to be used by future disciples for living, training, and cultivation.
The further inside one goes, the higher the disciple’s rank.
It seemed that the Crystal Dragon Palace would typically be reserved for the most core disciples.
Future plans would include an improved Spirit Stone car, allowing travel within the island via vehicle.
Long Fei agreed and signed his name on it.
He’s not interested in this; his current plan is to annex the Three Offshore Sects of Southern Ridge and seize all their plundered resources.
Later, the islands occupied by pirates would become South Yangtze Prefecture’s overseas military training base.
When the Demon Calamity erupts, this naval force would become the trump card against the Demon Race.
After Hua Qianmo left, Lin Yingying took a bath, came out, and stood behind Long Fei, giving him a shoulder massage.
She asked Long Fei, "We’ve just arrived and have already displeased the neighbors. Won’t we never have peaceful days in the future?"
Long Fei laughed, "Trying to establish roots on someone else’s turf without a fight is impossible. Even if you wish to be quiet, others won’t leave you alone."
Lin Yingying sighed, "Knowing this, we might as well have found an uninhabited place to settle."
She sat beside Long Fei, leaned on his shoulder, and tried to watch TV but forgot there’s no network here.
Long Fei hugged her shoulder, saying, "After this busy period, I’ll take you exploring and touring this world to relax."
Lin Yingying closed her eyes, showing a hint of tiredness, "I’ll leave it to you. It’s your arrangement since you brought me here!"
She was exhausted today, leading a group using the Imperial Envoy Dragon Palace here, though it wasn’t hard, it drained a lot of spiritual power.
"Alright, then I’ll serve the lady to rest first!"
Long Fei chuckled, carried her to the bedroom, closed the door, closed off outside, worried the Little Kirin might intrude.
The Little Kirin had no time; this Cultivation Generation 2 was touring the island with the Four Great Poison Demons.
The Four Great Poison Demons are cold-blooded creatures, each extremely proud and arrogant.
Aside from Long Fei, they only listened to what the Little Kirin said.
Kirin Bloodline, it was truly a Kirin.
For the Demon Clan, the Divine Blood Descendants within their ranks are revered.
The Green-eyed Chantoad’s bloodline is already special, yet it was still extremely flattering upon meeting the Little Kirin, even lowering itself to let the Little Kirin ride on it.
It mischievously suggested to the Little Kirin, "Divine Child, you’re of the Demonic Divine Bloodline, why succumb to a Human Race? Why not lead us in rebellion and convince Old Lvv, we’ll occupy a territory and reign as kings? Wouldn’t that be great?"
"What are you plotting all day long?"
The Little Kirin knocked on its head and laughed, telling them, "Obediently serve my parents. I have a feeling they’re chosen by fate. Following them might bring immortal ascension!"
A group of Poison Demons stared wide-eyed. Indeed, Divine Blood Descendants possess future prediction and insight into the Heavenly Dao.
If someone else had said this, they might not believe it. But hearing it from the Little Kirin, they’re one hundred percent convinced.
On the island, disciples wandered everywhere.
Having just arrived, they’re all curious about this world. Googlᴇ search 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭·𝔣𝔦𝔯𝔢·𝗇𝗲𝘵
Late at night, Jade Island was not quiet; on the contrary, it was quite lively.
The next day, disciples responsible for outer patrols early informed Long Fei that there was a Sea King Island envoy coming, claiming to deliver a negotiation document.
Long Fei instructed them to bring the envoy to the Council Hall to wait.
The hall was already set up, prepared with office desks and chairs, resembling an external company conference room.
