Chapter 474: Chapter 396: On How to Be a Good Leader!

After staying at the Blood God Sect headquarters for three days, Su Yuan was also supposed to leave and go out to execute tasks.

His current persona was that of an ambitious individual desperately trying to climb up and gain the trust of the Blood Soul True Monarch. If he continued to stay cloistered at the headquarters without going out, it would inevitably arouse some suspicion.

During the time before the Blood Sacrifice Ceremony begins, all tasks would revolve around ensuring the smooth conduct of the ceremony.

For instance, plundering populations, avoiding searches by the Righteous Dao forces, and suppressing the tentacles of other Demon Sects.

Many relatively important tasks had to be personally handled by high-level figures like the Holy Son and Holy Daughter.

Leaving the Blood God Sect headquarters and escaping the surveillance of the Blood Soul True Monarch, Motis, who was traveling with Su Yuan, communicated to him secretly:

"Su Yuan, a large part of the tasks we are responsible for is related to slaughtering civilians and capturing sacrifices."

"Do you have any strategies to avoid these tasks?"

Su Yuan: "It’s simple. We secretly agree with the Phoenix Soaring Pirate Gang and the navy people of Dragon City County that they will interfere every time we are about to succeed."

"During this period, we can also secretly assist them in fighting piracy, gradually clipping the Blood God Sect’s wings at sea."

"In this way, the Blood God Sect will find it difficult to capture a million sacrifices within a month as they can neither plunder populations from the sea nor operate freely on the Fa Continent, being closely watched by local official forces."

Motis naturally understood these principles, but her key issue wasn’t these.

"Once or twice is fine, but if it happens too many times, won’t the Blood Soul True Monarch become suspicious?"

"If he repeatedly fails to capture enough people, might he personally act, committing monstrous killings?"

Facing this question, Su Yuan smiled slightly and said:

"If it were three days ago, I indeed had such concerns, but now it’s different."

"Just watch, even if the number of sacrifices is less than a million, the Blood Soul True Monarch will still not be anxious and will conduct the Blood Sacrifice Ceremony as scheduled."

"In such a situation, as long as we don’t overdo it, he won’t mind."

Motis was slightly taken aback and detected a strong sense of confidence in Su Yuan’s tone.

This caused her to feel a bit weird inside.

She had been the Blood Soul True Monarch’s disciple for five years but didn’t understand him so well, yet Su Yuan had learned new intelligence after just three days of apprenticeship?

Was this kid secretly favored by the Blood Soul True Monarch?

With a somewhat strange mood, Motis did not ask further and merely said:

"Let’s head over to meet with the Blood God Sect’s subordinate pirates. Quickly notify your people."

"If a sea battle can break out causing considerable loss to the Blood God Sect, it could greatly enhance the credibility of this act."

As she spoke, the two boarded the White Bone Flying Ship.

On their way to the Sea of Law, Su Yuan connected with Chen Nuoyi using a communication earphone to prepare for directing the grand drama.

Just five hours later, the White Bone Flying Ship landed on the flagship of the Gold-Seeking Pirate Gang.

The gang’s leader, Captain Jin, and Lin Yonghua had been waiting early on the deck, awaiting the arrival of the Holy Son and Holy Daughter.

"Saintess Mo, Saint Su, you both have finally arrived."

Captain Jin’s face, pale and beardless, was filled with smiles as he complained:

"You wouldn’t know, but during the days you went back to the headquarters for reports, that crazy woman named Feng Xuanxiang was hunting pirates like a madman everywhere."

"Ironically, her combat power is extremely terrifying, though she only possesses a mere Foundation Establishment cultivation, even ordinary Golden Core cultivators couldn’t handle her."

"During this time, not only did I suffer from Feng Xuanxiang’s harassment, but even the larger pirates with territories further away were attacked."

Motis listened quietly, then calmly said:

"Assemble all the major pirates under the Blood God Sect to besiege Feng Xuanxiang."

"Additionally, Saint Su and I will support you. As long as your fleet can engage Feng Xuanxiang, she will certainly die."

Captain Jin was overjoyed, nodding repeatedly.

He knew the strength of Saintess Mo, which was even a bit stronger than him, a major Golden Core period pirate.

The Saint Su beside her wouldn’t be much weaker either, thus they instantly gained two more Golden Core combat powers. How could Feng Xuanxiang survive?

Three days later, as many as five pirate gangs led by Golden Core experts gathered here.

Together with Captain Jin and Lin Yonghua, there were seven Golden Core experts.

This was the pinnacle combat power developed at sea by the Blood God Sect.

Alongside the newly joined Lin Yonghua and counting the deceased Wu Sheng, these seven pirate experts were referred to by many Sea of Law residents as the Seven Warl... cough cough, the Seven Demon Generals.

After the assembly of the Six Great Pirate Gangs, a scout ship soon returned with intelligence, finding the location of the Phoenix Soaring Pirate Gang.

Apparently, Feng Xuanxiang was unaware of the alliance of the Six Great Pirate Gangs and was tracking the traces deliberately left by one pirate gang, poised to fall into a trap.

"Saintess Mo, Saint Su, it’s time to kill Feng Xuanxiang, please give the order."

On the Gold Hunting Ship, Captain Jin respectfully sought the order.

Beside him, Lin Yonghua sincerely said:

"Holy Son, Holy Daughter, after capturing Feng Xuanxiang, we can leverage our victory to take down Dragon City County, capturing enough sacrifices for the Blood Sacrifice Ceremony, achieving multiple objectives with a single action."

Su Yuan glanced at Lin Yonghua without a trace and said indifferently:

"No time to lose, let’s set off."

With Su Yuan’s command, the Six Great Pirate Gangs moved quickly, forming a pocket-shaped formation to surround the Phoenix Soaring Pirate Gang.

The Phoenix Soaring Pirate Gang had only one ship and few people. When they realized they were surrounded by the Six Great Pirate Gangs, it was too late to turn around and escape.

On the pirate flagship encircling the Yaksha, the pirate leaders called out triumphantly to Chen Nuoyi.

"Feng Xuanxiang, you have nowhere to go. Why don’t you just surrender and abandon your ship?"

"That little yellow-haired girl is so inexperienced, falling for such an obvious trap. I think she should stop being a captain and become my captain’s wife instead, what do you think?"

The arrogant and crude shouting echoed in Chen Nuoyi’s ears, causing the girl’s eyebrows to furrow slightly. 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

But when she saw Su Yuan on the Gold Hunting Ship from afar, her eyebrows relaxed slightly.

To be honest, even the combined six great pirate gangs were nothing more than insignificant to her.

After all, the Yaksha’s Golden Core combat power is not just one person.

Xuan Haoran, Leng Qianliu, and even Zhu Tianqing have Golden Core combat power, especially the first two, who can handle several rogue Golden Core cultivators at a time.

The challenge is to win this battle beautifully without exposing the strength of Xuan Haoran and others.

Preferably, it would be great to kill those pirates who dared to insult her.

I hope Su Yuan can perform some unexpected maneuvers.

Chen Nuoyi secretly anticipated Su Yuan’s next move.

On the Gold Hunting Ship, Su Yuan pointed to the foul-mouthed pirate captain, saying:

"Go and capture Feng Xuanxiang for me!"

Upon hearing this, the pirate captain, who was grinning widely, suddenly froze.

After a few seconds of pause, he cautiously said:

"Holy Heir, with so many ships on our side, shouldn’t we just fire and sink the entire Yaksha?"

"If we all rush in after that, isn’t that little girl with the surname Feng as good as dead?"

Su Yuan snorted coldly:

"Firing at such close range, what if we hurt our own people?"

"And what’s with your attitude? Are you daring to talk back to me, disregarding my master, the Blood Soul True Monarch?"

The captain hurriedly shook his head:

"No... I wouldn’t dare!"

Su Yuan: "Don’t be cowardly. I’m here to back you up, so move the ship over there! I’ll take responsibility if anything goes wrong!"

You better be able to take responsibility.

The captain grumbled inwardly, considering he had so many Golden Core experts to support him, he finally gritted his teeth and ordered his ship to move closer.

It wasn’t long before the flagship named the Giant Snake and the Yaksha were connected.

Xue Mang, the captain of the Giant Snake Pirate Gang, led his men onto the Yaksha, hefting his large blade, pointing at Chen Nuoyi and shouting:

"Little yellow-haired girl, your Grandpa Xue is here to meet you today."

After a moment of silence, Chen Nuoyi’s figure flickered as she retreated into the depths of the ship’s cabin.

Seeing this, Xue Mang sneered:

"Trying to run? Watch how I’ll handle you in the captain’s cabin!"

With that, he charged in with his large blade, kicking open the cabin door.

Then, cold gazes locked onto him.

A minute later, Chen Nuoyi walked out as if nothing had happened, but Xue Mang was nowhere to be seen.

Without giving Xue Mang’s men a chance to react, the girl waved her hand, unleashing waves of Purple Gold Dragon Qi, annihilating these pirates who were, at most, at the Foundation Establishment Stage.

The remaining pirates on the Giant Snake, seeing this, quickly tried to sail away, but it was too late.

The Purple Gold Dragon Qi shot out like a python, coiling around the Giant Snake, even with the flagship’s power, it couldn’t break free for a moment.

Then, Chen Nuoyi pointed in the direction of the Giant Snake, rapidly condensing an invisible bubble with a radius of 500 meters.

As the bubble shattered, the terrifying shockwave enveloped the entire Giant Snake.

In the blink of an eye, this 300-meter-long warship and its crew were pulverized.

The Giant Snake Pirate Gang, wiped out.

Seeing the girl with a few drops of blood on her face, even Su Yuan couldn’t help but shudder.

Wondering if it was just his imagination, he felt Nuoyi was becoming more ruthless.

Meanwhile, the remaining five pirate captains, along with Lin Yonghua, all turned their eyes to Su Yuan with questioning looks.

After all, Xue Mang’s death was unavoidably linked to Su Yuan.

Feeling the distrustful glances from everyone, Su Yuan said with displeasure:

"Why are you looking at me? How could I have known Xue Mang was so useless, unable to last even a minute before dying?"

"Huh, pirates are just pirates, a bunch of mere foot soldiers who can’t be relied on for anything!"

These words made the pirates furious, glaring in anger.

One pirate captain couldn’t help but ask:

"Didn’t you say you’d take responsibility?"

Su Yuan: "Responsibility? Why should I be responsible for Xue Mang’s own incompetence?"
