The crowd was furious, a group of pirates was driven to desperation by the kidnappers.
The Sea King Sect’s Sect Master, Yama, tore up the blood-stained letter and slamd it onto the table, saying fiercely, "We will never yield!"
Unlike other famous sects, the three sects adhere to a wolfish culture.
If you’re a leader and you dare to retreat, the underlings below you will look down on you. In the future, you will lose authority in front of them and find it hard to lead them again.
The subordinates, especially the second and third in command, were shouting the loudest, fighting for their own reputations.
Things had developed to this point where even Yama couldn’t control it anymore.
He led a group out of the main hall, glaring at the underlings outside who were as hungry as wolves, and shouted, "Those robbers, kidnappers, murderers think they can bully our three sects because we have no one. We need to show them who is the king of these seas, who is the true overlord of this sea region!"
"Woo!"
"Woo!"
"Woo!"
A group of burly n raised axes, broadswords, long spears, and tridents towards the sky, shouting loudly.
The three sects decided on the sa day to dispatch three thousand warships, to lay siege to Jade Island and flatten it first.
Black sails were raised, huge warships wrapped in steel reflecting the black light under the sun, magnificently setting off from the Three Islands toward Jade Island.
These ships are the hidden strength of the Three Islands.
They had never deployed more than half before, but this ti they’re going all out.
The experts of the three sects were all dispatched, their morale high. Standing at the bow of the ships, they stared at the direction of Jade Island as if it were already within their grasp.
anwhile, a hundred of the newest warships stationed in South Yangtze Prefecture had already left port a day ago, heading toward Jade Island.
Earlier, under Long Fei’s efforts, the first South Yangtze Shipyard was established in South Yangtze Prefecture.
The shipbuilding machines and equipnt inside were all purchased in bulk from the outside world.
With the modifications by the Mo Family, they can now independently construct steel warships.
A benefit in this world is that many things don’t require electricity.
For example, for welding, you only need to recruit a cultivator skilled in wielding Fire Elental Force and supply him with enough pills daily.
He can use his finger to wield the Fire Elental Force for welding steel.
Take ship anti-rust coating for instance, in the outside world, workers would painstakingly apply it layer by layer.
In this world, find a cultivator who can wield Water Elental Force, and with a flick of spiritual power, various liquids can be accurately and precisely applied to the ships.
Other examples include the refining furnace for steel.
In this world, there’s no need for coal, instead, they use a refining furnace – a high furnace for refining magical weapons by the Daoist Sect.
On top of the furnace, there’s a Fire Elental Force array, which is activated by Spirit Stones.
Once the Spirit Stone is installed, the array activates, drawing Fire Elental Force from the surroundings into the furnace.
Such flas lack the impurities of burning coal and are very pure, producing extrely pure steel.
Although not reaching the atomic level, it’s a hundred tis stronger than that from the outside world.
Initially, Lin’s Group’s global warship procurent only amounted to about thirty ships.
Combined with the last raid converting a hundred Blood Clan steel cargo ships into warships, there were a total of over one hundred thirty ships.
The hundred ships arriving this ti are not those modified ones.
Seventy of them are the newest warships launched by the South Yangtze Shipyard.
What requires machines in the outside world only requires hiring a cultivator here.
For example, items weighing tens of thousands of pounds wouldn’t need cranes in this world.
Cultivators at the Core Formation Stage can move them using spiritual power.
Thus, the speed and efficiency are at least a hundred tis that of the outside world.
The fleet’s navigator was Chu Feng; he had already helped his family establish a firm foothold in this world. No one else knew the place, as it was found solely by their family.
Returning to South Yangtze Prefecture, he originally awaited Long Fei for reunion.
Who could have guessed Jade Island would have such happenings?
Upon receiving Long Fei’s urgent ssage via the Lightning Bird, Chu Feng acted imdiately, asking Ji Wanrong to deploy over a hundred warships.
Ji Wanyu, learning that Lin Shanshan, Lin Yingying, and the others ca along, happily boarded the ship, following closely behind Chu Feng.
Accompanying them were Da Heiniu, Bald Dog, Ground Rat Demon King, Sea Demon Ape, and Golden-Winged Roc.
Murong Chong and Wang Jie had already returned, taking care of matters, so Ji Wanrong no longer needed these demon kings for protection.
It was she who actively drove these demon kings away, as this group, without Long Fei’s control, caused chaos in South Yangtze Prefecture, nearly turning it into ruins.
South Yangtze Prefecture is about three tis the distance from Jade Island compared to the three sects.
However, since they set out early, by dawn, they kept pace with the three sects.
Chu Feng stood on the lookout tower, let out a strange cry, "I will beco the king of this sea, and you will bow beneath my feet, beneath my warships, beneath my cannon barrels. I will lead you into a new age of steel."
Down on the deck, Da Heiniu and the others were drinking, turning their heads to look at each other.
Da Heiniu asked, "What’s Chu the Second talking about?"
Bald Dog shook his head, "Who knows, reciting poetry again, maybe?"
Ground Rat Demon King said, "Looks like it’s original this ti."
Golden-Winged Roc and Sea Demon Ape spat blood, having no clue what they were muttering about.
Ji Wanyu stood beside Chu Feng, clapped her hands in excitent, and praised, "Great poem, great poem, Elder Brother Chu is truly Li Bai reincarnated, Du Fu reborn."
Chu Feng flicked his hair and, feigning profundity, said, "You understand . I don’t even want to deal with those uncultured ones down there."
Da Heiniu and the others glared, barely resisting the urge to punch him.
Ji Wanyu flattered Chu Feng because getting to go out this ti depended entirely on his help.
Otherwise, her traditional sister would never allow her, a girl, to follow a group of n making a ruckus.
At dusk, on Jade Island, the disciples in charge of reconnaissance imdiately inford Long Fei, saying they had spotted a large number of unknown ships on the sea.
Everyone climbed the island’s 300-ter-high peak, and in the distance, they saw countless sails raised high like a wave of black flood surging toward Jade Island.
The group of disciples furrowed their brows, knowing the main force of the sea bandits was coming to attack.
While they contemplated how to fight, Long Fei looked at the mountaintop and called Hua Qianmo over, saying, "Is there a plan for this mountaintop?"
Hua Qianmo shook his head; this was a mining area intended for excavating Spirit Stones, so there was no plan.
Long Fei thought for a mont and said, "Let’s not mine our own Spirit Stones anymore; we’ll mine others’ in the future. Otherwise, we’ll ruin the environnt, and living here would be uncomfortable. This peak is suitable for transforming into a big park, building pavilions and towers on it, how wonderful it will be to sit here and have tea!"
Hua Qianmo spattered blood ntally, thinking, "Big brother, the sea bandits are coming to attack us, and you’re still thinking about having tea?"
