An Insider
The Wolf Ancestor's bloodline Bloodline Metamorphosis, greatly increasing its strength, much to the delight of the Yang Household family.
After exchanging a few words, Yang Tianyou took out a colorful Spirit Pearl from his Storage Ring.
He looked at the Wolf Ancestor and said with a smile, "Wolf Ancestor, this is an Illusion Technique Law Treasure that can conceal your aura and appearance. Wear it for now and still appear in your original form."
"You want me to be the Lineage's trump card?" Wolf Ancestor said thoughtfully, taking the Spirit Pearl.
Law Power surged forth, and an invisible wave emanated from the Spirit Pearl. Various phantoms flashed by, and the original Blood Moon Wolf King transformed once again into a gray-white, slightly emaciated Purple Moon Wolf.
Yang Tianyou said, "Using it as Lineage trump card is only one reason. Another reason is that I plan to send you, Wolf Ancestor, deep into the Savage Wilderness Great Domain to be an inside agent for my Yang Household!"
"An inside man?" Wolf Ancestor was taken aback.
Yang Haoyu and Yunhua exchanged glances, something Yang Tianyou had never mentioned to them.
Seeing this, Yang Tianyou laughed and said, "This idea only suddenly came to me after the Wolf Ancestor underwent its Bloodline Metamorphosis."
He explained, "In about twenty years, another Cold Tide will break out, and the Immortal Dao forces of the Northern River Region will surely wage war against the Savage Wilderness Great Domain to avenge the last Cold Tide. At this critical juncture, it is the perfect opportunity for my Yang Household to expand our territory and increase our influence."
"In this battle, I intend to wipe out all four Foreign Races forces in front of me— Ice Crystal Pool, Ten Thousand Blades Mountain, Greenrock Tribe, and Blackblood City —in one fell swoop and seize their territories."
Yang Tianyou's ambition and appetite have always increased along with his growing strength.
The rapid rise in his Lineage's power gave him enough confidence to say these words and put them into action.
Upon hearing this, Yang Haoyu frowned. "Wouldn't doing this be taking too big a step?"
She didn't say what to do if they couldn't defeat these Foreign Races forces.
As the Old Ancestor of the Lineage, Yang Haoyu was fully aware of the current strength of the Yang Household.
Putting aside everything else, the Third-Tier Puppets inherited from the Three Blazing Flame Palace alone are enough to more than double the strength of the Yang Household.
Moreover, in twenty years, the Yang Household family will have at least a few more Golden Core cultivators, and the cultivation levels of these Golden Core Cultivators will also be greatly improved.
Don't forget, the talents of the Yang Household's Golden Core cultivators are now at least equivalent to 80% of the aptitude of Heavenly Spirit Root genius, and their cultivation speed is extremely fast.
With abundant resources, the speed at which cultivation improves will be far beyond the reach of most Golden Core Cultivators.
In addition, there are the Purple Moon Army, Third-Tier Flying Boats, and other combat forces equivalent to Golden Core Cultivators.
A simple calculation shows that in twenty years, the Yang Household will be able to field at least thirty Golden Core Combat Strength.
Taking down four Foreign Races Golden Core Forces would be a piece of cake; even with the support of the Savage Wilderness Great Domain, it would be utterly useless.
After all, could they possibly summon a powerhouse at the Nascent Soul Late Stage or higher?
If that doesn't work, then they can only wait to die, or obediently give up their territory.
Yang Haoyu frowned because the Yang Household occupied territory equivalent to four or five counties, or even more. Would this arouse the Luochuan Sect's suspicion and lead them to take action to suppress them?
And then there's the Luochuan River Flood Dragon Clan; during the Cold Tide, it's hard to guarantee they won't stir up trouble.
In addition, there are cultivators from the Orthodox and Demonic Paths. Whenever Cold Tide, it is a time when demons run rampant. If the Yang Household is the first to stick their neck out, they will easily be targeted by these guys.
Finally, there's the issue of defense. It's true the Yang Household has many Golden Core Combat Strength, but not many of their own clan members can leave Purple Moon County to remain and oversee a region. After all, everyone has their own missions, and they can't all be deployed to defend the border, can they?
Yang Haoyu did not hide any of these concerns and revealed them all.
After listening to the Old Ancestor's words, Yang Tianyou remained calm. He had considered these concerns, but he still brought up this grand plan in the end, which naturally had its own reasons.
Yang Tianyou explained, "The drawbacks that the Old Ancestor mentioned do indeed exist objectively, but they are not worth worrying about."
"First of all, there is the Luochuan Sect. The Old Ancestor is worried that the Lineage's strength is expanding too quickly, which will arouse the Luochuan Sect's suspicion."
There's no need to worry about that. True Person Beigong actually tacitly approved of our Lineage's rise a long time ago. Otherwise, he would have taken action to suppress it more than ten years ago, instead of waiting until now.
Moreover, the Heavenly Dao Contract that I signed with the Grand Elder has, at this time, become an ally of the Lineage.
Because as long as this contract exists, I cannot attack the Luochuan Sect. This will make True Person Beigong and the Grand Elder very lenient towards us in certain matters, such as the matter of territorial expansion.
"Secondly, if the next Cold Tide wipes out all four Foreign Races forces, my Yang Household cannot keep it all for ourselves. We should share some of the benefits with the Cloudglow Sect, the Feng Household, and even other Golden Core Forces in Luochuan Commandery to alleviate the pressure."
"Third, I learned many secrets about the Luochuan River Flood Dragon Clan through Long Qi's memories."
The Luochuan River Dragon King has always kept a low profile, striving to break through to the Spirit Transformation realm as soon as possible and then return to the Eastern Sea.
At this critical juncture, it won't waste its energy on my Yang Household.
As for the other elders of the Flood Dragon Clan, the highest level they have is only at the Nascent Soul Late Stage. Twenty years from now, with me, my Seven Bonded Spirit Beasts, and the Love That Topples Cities, even if we can't defeat them, we'll be more than capable of protecting ourselves.
Moreover, Long Qi's temper is not well-liked in the Flood Dragon Clan. He only has one or two Nascent Soul Flood Dragons on good terms with him, and their highest cultivation level is only the Nascent Soul Middle Stage. There is no need to be afraid.
Fourth, there are the Orthodox and Demonic Paths.
"Given the lessons learned from the previous invasion by the Cold Tide Demon Sea, I believe that before this, the major powers in the Northern River Region will definitely wipe out the Devil Cultivators within their borders first, and only then will they launch a large-scale attack on the Savage Wilderness Great Domain. So there's no need to worry about that."
"As for the final shortage of manpower, that is indeed a problem."
The main issues were the Chaotic Sea and the Mo Province side, which took up a lot of our energy.
Otherwise, bringing back a few of Sixth Brother, Xuanwu, and Wang Shan would be enough. With their talent, they'll definitely be able to break through to the Golden Core in twenty years."
After Yang Tianyou finished speaking, he frowned, "If all else fails, we'll have to send Fengling and the others to guard the area, but those guys have such temperaments..."
At this moment, Yunhua spoke, her beautiful face blooming like a vibrant flower, "husband, have you forgotten what you said before? We are allied with other Golden Core Forces. They don't send anyone, they only get the benefits. How can that be acceptable?"
"There are also a large number of rogue Golden Core Rogue Cultivators. We can hire them to guard the Third-Tier Spirit Veins. We can just pay them a salary every year, right? Our Yang Household lacks everything, but we don't lack Spirit Stones!"
Yunhua's words suddenly enlightened Yang Tianyou. He clenched his fists and palms, his brows relaxing as he exclaimed, "That's right! How could I have forgotten about that!"
Yang Haoyu laughed and said, "That's what they mean by 'one man's plan is short-sighted.' Even the smartest person will have moments when they don't think things through."
"So, Old Ancestor, you agree to annihilate the Four Great Foreign Races, expand your territory, and engage in large-scale expansion?"
"Of course, you've made it so clear. If I still disagree, wouldn't it make me, your Old Ancestor, seem incredibly muddle-headed?" Yang Haoyu rolled his eyes at him and said.
