Yellow Ridge Island is a dium-sized supply island located on the edge of the Fuling Sea, close to the mainland Sangmu Prefecture, and near Sangmu Xiancheng. With its advantageous geographical location, Yellow Ridge Island has beco a major port island for the trade routes between the Fuling Sea and Sangmu Prefecture.
So years ago, the “young island master” of Yellow Ridge Island, Huang Shouyi, went to the Gongyue Xiancheng with his n, carrying the Nascent Soul of the island’s ancestor, Huang Changlong, which he possessed.
Originally, they had planned to capture Dao Body puppets, bring them back to Yellow Ridge Island for Talisman Drawing, and serve them as their own.
However, the tables were turned and they fell into the hands of the very Dao Body puppets they were aiming to control. Moreover, Huang Changlong’s Nascent Soul beca a chance for the soul puppet to complete its transformation from third to fourth tier.
Vroom!
Over the vast sea, a gigantic Magic Artifact warship flies in a fixed direction.
On board, thousands of cultivators, originally under the Black Flood Dragon Trading Company, sit cross-legged in silence, focusing on their cultivation.
In a room ahead, Su Yu, the Black Flood Dragon Taoist, Taoist Fujiang, and Taoist Jin Feng face each other, steering the warship towards Yellow Ridge Island at the speed of a whirling wind.
This is a low-grade warship which Su Yu purchased from Sangmu Xiancheng at a trendous cost.
Such a warship is considered standard in wars among large marine forces.
Because it’s spacious enough to carry many cultivators, unlike a flying boat that is more compact, the warship is designed for wars among powers.
As they travel towards Yellow Ridge Island, Su Yu and the Black Flood Dragon Taoist listen to Taoist Fujiang and Taoist Jin Fen discussing the situation on Yellow Ridge Island.
Taoist Fujiang said, “In the past, Yellow Ridge Island was controlled by the Huang Family, the strongest and most influential power on the island, with the most profound foundation, under the rule of the Nascent Soul True Monarch – The Ancestor of Huang Family.”
“Apart from the Huang Family, there are three other considerable families on the island: the Liu Family, the Ming Family, and Jin Family, where Taoist Friend Jin Feng cos from. All of them were their subordinates due to the dominance of the Huang Family and each family has one or two cultivators in the ninth level of the Core Formation stage.”
“Based on the intel gathered by Chairman Gao about Yellow Ridge Island, things are still calm there. The island remains under the control of the Huang Family and the news about the trouble with the Huang Family Ancestor has not been spread.”
“However, behind the scenes, both the Liu Family and the Ming Family, as well as so outside forces of Yellow Ridge Island, seem to have sensed sothing and attempted to test the Huang Family.”
“If the True Monarch doesn’t make a move, perhaps within a few years, or a decade, the situation on Yellow Ridge Island may change.”
“Without the presence of the Ancestor of the Huang Family, they can’t hold onto Yellow Ridge Island.”
Su Yu nodded slightly and turned to Taoist Jin Feng.
Taoist Jin Feng replied respectfully, “True Monarch, not long ago, I contacted my family who told that both the Liu Family and the Ming Family have sought us out for a coalition. In addition, three powerful trading companies and two island forces have contacted the Jin Family, all plotting against Yellow Ridge Island.”
After pausing a mont, Jin Feng lowered his voice, “Among the three trading companies, two are rumored to have a Pseudo Infant True Monarch backing them up, and the other trading company, as well as the two island forces, are backed by a Nascent Soul True Monarch.”
“Currently, we don’t know how many agents they have deployed on Yellow Ridge Island or whether they are colluding with the Liu Family and Ming Family.”
Upon hearing this, Su Yu fell into deep thought. Then he turned to the Black Flood Dragon Taoist and the others, saying, “Tell , what should we do if we want to set foot on Yellow Ridge Island?”
“Should we take down the Huang Family directly, or should we lie low for a while, wait, or even stir up unrest on Yellow Ridge Island? Then we might seize the opportunity.”
The Black Flood Dragon Taoist pondered but didn’t speak.
Taoist Fujiang hesitated for a mont, then carefully said to Su Yu, “True Monarch, I think it would be best to quietly take down the Huang Family, making them surrender under the True Monarch’s rule, and then resolve the troubles within Yellow Ridge Island and repel external enemies.”
“In this way, we can avoid direct conflict with other major forces and let them back off, acting peacefully.”
Taoist Jin Feng frowned, pondering, “What if the Huang Family refuses to surrender and exposes us to all the other powers?”
“Then we may be ambushed by these forces, which could be very risky.”
“In my opinion, what the True Monarch ntioned about lying low is the most prudent course. We can then clearly see which forces are aiming at Yellow Ridge Island and to what extent.”
“Moreover, their initiations will test the ttle and foundation of the Huang Family.”
“Whether or not we can fight or seize control of Yellow Ridge Island will ultimately be the True Monarch’s decision, providing a chance to advance or retreat freely.”
After a pause, he continued, “With our Jin Family on Yellow Ridge Island, True Monarch, it won’t be difficult for us to take root there.”
Su Yu did not respond, instead turning to the Black Flood Dragon Taoist, “Black Flood Dragon, what do you think?”
The Black Flood Dragon Taoist pondered for a mont, but did not comnt on the argunts of Taoist Fujiang and Taoist Jin Feng. Instead, he said, “On the Black Flood Dragon River, only ferocity and blood can deter all prying eyes.”
“Biding one’s ti and hiding cannot make the wolves back off, on the contrary, they will perceive your weakness and launch an all-out attack.”
“But if you show your brutality and blood-thirst, you can deter so enemies.”
