Jiang Liu closed the file and fell into deep thought. The main problem at present was how to deal with the aftermath of the Sea Gazing City incident.
Should we temporarily relocate all the people living near those seaports?
Currently in Xun Province and Yunzhou, there are four cities built on the coast, thus providing access to the sea.
The direction of Sea Gazing City should be closest to Blood Demon Island; otherwise, Blood Demon Island wouldn't always enter the Great Qian Continent from here.
In other places, although there are also areas near the sea, there are no cities built on the coast.
Before we conquer Blood Demon Island, we still need to consider the security of the coastal city.
However, Sea Gazing City is now completely ruined, with only ordinary people remaining, who are certainly finding it difficult to continue to survive.
Don't assume this world is safe. There are Exotic Beast in the mountains and forests, and the ocean is no Exotic Beast.
Moreover, the Exotic Beast in the ocean are far more powerful than those on land.
Without martial artists to regularly hunt and exterminate these Exotic Beasts, there would be no way to achieve this.
The Exotic Beast have long been rampant and a plague; how could humans possibly survive safely?
Therefore, without martial artists guarding it, Sea Gazing City is essentially undefended.
With this in mind, Jiang Liu immediately decided to issue an order to Gong Heqian, who was currently stationed in Sea Gazing City.
The common people in Sea Gazing City were all relocated to inland cities.
Although this is a massive undertaking, there is currently no other option but to temporarily abandon Sea Gazing City.
At that time, Sea Gazing City will only be rebuilt after there are more martial artists in it.
Immediately, Jiang Liu picked up the sea chart leading to Blood Demon Island and began to study it.
He is already preparing to gather his forces to attack Blood Demon Island.
After all, they've already come knocking on his door; if he doesn't retaliate, it will be a fatal blow to his prestige.
In fact, Jiang Liu had always harbored a grand ambition: to truly unify the entire world.
It means to completely end the current situation where Jianghu factions Sects run rampant.
To realize this grand ambition, both strength and prestige are indispensable.
However, doing so would completely infringe upon the fundamental interests of the Flowing Cloud Sect and the Star Moon Sect.
Even if I hadn't brought it up, if people knew about this idea, the first people to target Jiang Liu would be Flowing Cloud Matriarch and Gongsun Haoyue.
Despite the fact that Flowing Cloud Matriarch and Gongsun Haoyue seem to be very accommodating and protective of Jiang Liu, they are not fooled by his behavior.
However, once Jiang Liu reveals his intention to undermine the foundations of the Flowing Cloud Sect and the Star Moon Sect, the two sides will immediately become enemies.
Only when Jiang Liu's strength completely surpasses that of the two of them will it be possible to realize this grand ambition.
However, those are matters for the future. The priority now is to ascertain the true strength of Blood Demon Island before proceeding with the next steps.
Otherwise, it's all just empty talk.
To find out their strength, the only option is to risk entering Blood Demon Island. For a martial artist of average strength to go to Blood Demon Island would be like sending a lamb to the slaughter.
Therefore, after much thought, Jiang Liu felt that it would be safest to go in person.
After all, his strength was that of Peak Grandmaster, and his techniques were versatile enough to deal with any unexpected situation.
Only after ascertaining the strength of Blood Demon Island can we begin to take action against Blood Demon Island.
The first thing to do now is to learn the language of Blood Demon Island.
Otherwise, even if you get there, if you can't get any information, it will all be for nothing.
After Jiang Liu had thought everything through, Murong Yin and Feng Yue had already returned to the Listening Wind Pavilion's residence.
They knew Jiang Liu was definitely here, so they didn't go back to the mansion by the mountain.
"My Husband, what is it? Is this the reason?" Murong Yin asked first.
Jiang Liu nodded and asked Murong Yin, "Where is Piao Han now?"
"Piao Han is in Yuncheng now. What, does my Husband want to go to Blood Demon Island in person?" Murong Yin immediately guessed Jiang Liu's thoughts.
"Hmm! I plan to learn the language of Blood Demon Island and then go there myself to gather information about Blood Demon Island."
"But," Feng Yue said anxiously, not wanting Jiang Liu to take the risk.
The people of Blood Demon Island are so ruthless, and we don't even know how strong they are.
Before Feng Yue could continue speaking, Jiang Liu had already reached out and stopped her.
He said reassuringly, "Don't worry, if I really can't win, I will withdraw."
"Furthermore, have you forgotten that your Husband is now Peak Grandmaster? There are only three such people in the entire world."
"If I don't go, who do you want to go? Flowing Cloud Sect Master? Or Sect Leader Gongsun?"
Hearing Jiang Liu say this, even Murong Yin, who wanted to speak up to persuade him, was speechless.
Yes! In the heat of the moment, I forgot that Jiang Liu is already one of only three Peak Grandmaster in the entire world.
If even he couldn't escape unscathed after entering Blood Demon Island...
Sooner or later, this world will completely fall into the clutches of Blood Demon Island.
At that time, there will be no safe place in the entire world.
Therefore, at that time, the question of whether or not to go to Blood Demon Island will no longer exist.
Having thought this through, the two women had no choice but to nod helplessly, indicating their agreement with Jiang Liu's idea.
Subsequently, Murong Yin ordered the people from the Listening Wind Pavilion to bring Piao Han over.
Then, Murong Yin ordered his men to search for the craftsmen.
Since we're going to go to sea, we definitely need to build a large ship.
Previously, no one from Daqian went out to sea; they mostly just wandered around the coastal waters.
Therefore, the existing ships are only capable of navigating in coastal waters.
There were absolutely no large ships capable of sailing long distances at sea.
Therefore, this time Murong Yin had no choice but to rely on the power of the Ascension Tower to search for craftsmen throughout the country.
Before long, the people from the Listening Wind Pavilion brought Piao Han there.
When Piao Han arrived, he saw Jiang Liu sitting at the head of the table and immediately knelt down.
He now knows that Blood Demon Island recently invaded the Great Qian Continent and committed a horrific massacre.
If this person gets angry, a single sentence from him can completely determine his life or death.
Moreover, it seems that I no longer have much value to myself.
"Don't be afraid, I won't kill you. Just write down everything you know in the Great Qian language and the language of your Blood Demon Island, comparing the written meanings and expressions," Jiang Liu said expressionlessly.
Upon hearing this, Piao Han immediately knew that his safety was guaranteed.
Then he thought about it again and realized that Jiang Liu's method was much more effective than the way he had taught others to learn the language of Blood Demon Island.
After they finish learning, won't I be completely useless to them?
Thinking of this, Piao Han turned pale and looked up at Jiang Liu.
"If you do this well, I promise you I won't kill you in the future. But if you cheat and don't do your job properly, then you're asking for death."
Jiang Liu said coldly.
"Yes, I will do my best and will not overlook anything," Piao Han said, kowtowing repeatedly.
Jiang Liu waved his hand, and the people from the Listening Wind Pavilion immediately led Piao Han to a room next door.
He will be working here from now on, and if he fails to complete Jiang Liu's instructions, he will not need to leave.
