After Chen Nuoyi settled into the flagship of the Yaksha Pirate Gang, docked at the port, Su Yuan also moved in, preparing to wait for three days.

These three days were, of course, not just for recruiting crew members.

The crew members were just a facade; the real intention he and Chen Nuoyi had was to lure other enemies.

Specifically, the powerful beings from the Blood God Sect.

When killing Wu Sheng, although Chen Nuoyi had chopped the opponent's body into thousands of pieces, he skillfully preserved Wu Sheng's soul.

Su Yuan placed this soul into the Ten Thousand Souls Banner, and after some cordial and friendly education, learned many things.

Wu Sheng was an outer member of the Blood God Sect, and his task of collecting sacrifices for this Demon Sect was confirmed.

It was outrageous that this guy had been abducting people for decades, contributing over a hundred thousand sacrifices for almost every Blood Sacrifice Ceremony.

Among these sacrifices were mortals and cultivators, and notably many experts in the mid-to-late Foundation Establishment stage, such as Feng Xuanxiang's father.

Among the many pieces of information revealed by this person, the most important one was the timing of the Blood Sacrifice Ceremony.

In thirty-five days, at a certain location within the Sea of Law, a sunken Holy Island will emerge.

At that time, the Sect Leader Blood God will personally ascend the Holy Island, don the crown of a king, and enjoy the infusion of the life force of a million souls to achieve transformation.

Wu Sheng did not know the exact location the island would rise from, as the Holy Island is a movable island, and the area of its emergence is uncertain each time.

Not to mention Wu Sheng, even core members can only know on the eve of the Blood Sacrifice Ceremony.

As for why the location of the Holy Island is elusive?

The reason is to guard against other major forces that bear grudges against the Blood God Sect.

According to Wu Sheng, after each Blood Sacrifice Ceremony, the Sect Leader Blood God's power improves significantly.

Because of this, many Demon Sect factions desperately search for the ceremony's location each time, attempting to disrupt it, but every time they fail.

In short, the Blood God Sect places great importance on the Blood Sacrifice Ceremony occurring in thirty-five days, and Wu Sheng's fall during this critical moment will naturally attract the attention of powerful figures from the Blood God Sect.

The Blood God Sect's attitude towards Feng Xuanxiang will determine whether the Phoenix Soaring Pirate Gang can be successfully established.

If the former is determined to avenge Wu Sheng, Su Yuan will have to flee with Chen Nuoyi.

However, if they are willing to develop Chen Nuoyi as a new subordinate, then things may turn around.

"Su Yuan, we absolutely cannot allow the Blood God Sect to sacrifice a million people."

In the captain's cabin, while Su Yuan had not yet entered a cultivation state, Chen Nuoyi expressed his thoughts:

"In such an important matter, does the Court of the Celestial Law World care?"

Su Yuan thought for a moment and said:

"I will report the Blood Sacrifice Ceremony situation in my capacity as a county magistrate, but I can only say... don't hold out too much hope for the response."

"And if reporting to the officials were effective, the Blood God Sect's Blood Sacrifice Ceremony would have been disrupted decades ago."

"Even, thinking in a darker direction, perhaps the Blood God Sect has already reached some kind of understanding with the Immortal Officials of the Fa Continent and the Bai Continent, which lower officials simply cannot shake."

After listening, Chen Nuoyi lowered his head and was silent for a while, then said seriously:

"No matter what, I want to give it a try."

"Once we make contact with the formidable people of the Blood God Sect, perhaps there will be an opportunity to stop the Blood Sacrifice Ceremony."

"Mm, I'll accompany you."

Su Yuan nodded, unhesitatingly standing by Chen Nuoyi's side.

In his heart, he sighed gently.

He had said he dared not complete the task of subduing the Blood God Sect, but in the end, he still did it.

No choice, who let the Blood God Sect be that challenging.

With such complex emotions, Su Yuan activated the 'Dragon Race Prince' title effect and fully immersed himself in cultivation. 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂

He hoped to reach the Foundation Establishment Seventh Layer within thirty-five days for a bit more assurance, though it was just a drop in the ocean.

...

A day later.

In the vast Sea of Law, in the most luxurious guest room of the Gold-Seeking Pirate Gang's flagship, a figure cloaked entirely in a blood-colored robe leisurely sipped tea while seated at the table.

The hand extending from the large sleeves was as white as jade, with slender fingers, the skin carrying a pallor not belonging to the living.

It was only through the details of her hands and figure that outsiders could tell she was a female and most likely a young woman.

At this moment, the cabin door opened, and a young woman dressed as a maid rushed in, reporting somewhat anxiously:

"Saintess Mo, something bad has happened, the people of the Yaksha Pirate Gang have been wiped out."

"The crew was turned into a mist of blood, and Wu Sheng was hacked into innumerable fragments, his head taken away."

The blood-robed woman's hand holding the teacup stiffened slightly, but then returned to normal, calmly asking:

"Who did it?"

The maid hastily replied:

"According to onlookers, the killer was a very beautiful young girl, probably around eighteen or nineteen."

"She claimed to be Feng Xuanxiang, the orphan of the Feng Clan Leader. In the decade she went missing, she had a fortuitous encounter, learned various skills, then avenged her family by killing Wu Sheng."

"Saintess, with the Blood Sacrifice Ceremony approaching and no Wu Sheng to gather sacrifices, what should we do!"

The blood-robed woman did not respond immediately, remaining silent for a few seconds, then indifferently said:

"You go out first, let me think."

The maid, suspecting nothing, quickly exited the cabin, closing the door.

Left alone in the cabin once more, the blood-robed woman idly played with the teacup in her hands, muttering to herself:

"If you are Feng Xuanxiang, then who am I?"

...

Thirty-six hours flashed by, ushering in another pitch-black night.

Still, only Su Yuan and Chen Nuoyi were aboard the Yaksha, with no crew members.

'Feng Xuanxiang' previously exuded such intense murderous intent, turning over a hundred people into a mist of blood in one blow, flaying Wu Sheng in public; even the boldest pirates wouldn't dare interact with such a captain!

Before understanding Feng Xuanxiang's true temperament, everyone deemed boarding the Yaksha a suicidal act.

This left Su Yuan rather exasperated.

No matter how powerful Chen Nuoyi might be, it's impossible for her to handle the entire ship on her own.

Unless…

Unless employing the Ancient Corpse Refinement, turning some sea creatures into zombies to help operate the ship, forming a seafood pirate gang.

Or taking out several corpses of Sword Slaves from the Tribulation Moon Pearl, forming a Sword Corpse Pirate Gang.

But regardless of the plan, it all seems a bit too bizarre!

Chen Nuoyi is set to be recruited; having such a terrible reputation is not ideal.

Moreover, besides being unable to recruit anyone, not a single member of the Blood God Sect has appeared these three days.

Can they really stay so calm?

Su Yuan considered whether to wait a few more days.

But just then, he suddenly had an intuition.

The night raid radar reacted!

A target suitable for a night raid appeared nearby!
