Hearing Su Yuan's irresponsible words, Captain Jin and the others were left completely dumbfounded.
How was it all their fault again?
If you hadn't been blindly giving orders the whole time, would we have lost two Golden Core Cultivators? Would we have been caught by the Longcheng County Navy?
"What, do you have a problem with that?"
Su Yuan's gaze turned cold.
The pirate captains could only lower their heads and say they wouldn't dare.
They wanted to cut Su Yuan into a thousand pieces, but what he'd said did make sense.
If they hadn't scored a single victory, they wouldn't have a leg to stand on when they faced Blood Soul True Monarch.
First earn some merit. Once everything had settled, then they could go complain to the True Lord.
Driven by this thinking, the pirate captains quickly rallied their subordinates and ordered their ships into battle formation.
But what they hadn't expected was that, even though they were still a great distance from the Longcheng County Navy fleet, the cannons on the other ships were already moving.
"Raise the cannon muzzles by five centimeters!"
"Archers, move five steps to the left!"
On the deck of the Longcheng County Navy flagship, Qi Hanyua sat astride a tall white horse, issuing a string of utterly inconsequential orders with a self-satisfied air.
Wang De, Ying Ding, Qi Junxiang, and the other civil and military officials didn't dare slack off. They hurried to relay her commands.
Once the cannons had been adjusted as ordered, Qi Hanyua gave the signal, and the main guns of more than a dozen warships fired!
Pillars of light, formed from surging spiritual energy, poured from the cannon muzzles. In the blink of an eye, they crossed over a hundred nautical miles and struck Wei Chenghai's Giant Serpent.
