Capture 'Song Shuhang' Plan!

Then, Venerable White said gently to Shuhang, "Everyone should rest early today. We'll try 'Fish Leaping Dragon Gate' again tomorrow."

Like a fish Dragon Gate Leap...

"Do I have to turn into a fish again?" Now, whenever Song Shuhang hears the word 'fish,' he thinks of Doudou's paws, Doudou's teeth, Doudou's stomach, and the chewing action of those teeth. His heart aches!

"Don't worry, I won't turn you into a fish again tomorrow," said Venerable White. "My plan for tomorrow is to first let you experience the thrill of successfully 'Fish Leaping Dragon Gate,' and then have you swim across the Dragon Gate Waterfall twice on your own. Get plenty of rest, as tomorrow's experiment will be very strenuous."

Hearing this, Song Shuhang breathed a sigh of relief. As long as he didn't turn into a fish, that was good; he really had a psychological trauma from it.

According to Senior Copper Trigram's divination, the remaining disciples of the 'Thirty-Three Beast God Sect' won't be coming today. They should arrive tomorrow, right?

Song Shuhang hoped those guys would arrive soon... and then have Senior White quickly take care of them. That way, they could leave this isolated island in the Eastern Sea as soon as possible.

In this way, he would have the opportunity to 'tip in' Soft Feather...

And on a small island in the Pacific Ocean, Gao Moumou, Tubo, the Zhuge siblings (?), the Lu Fei sisters, and his nominal disciple Joseph and his daughter are all waiting for him to bring them back.

He still has many things to do and can't afford to waste too much time on this small island in the Eastern Sea.

***************************

Meanwhile, deep in the Eastern Sea, aboard a submarine.

Wolf One, Ox Two, Horse Three, Ape Four, Eagle Six Sheep Seven, Chicken Eighteen, Tiger Twenty-Two, Snake Twenty-Three, and Rabbit Twenty-Eight— ten members of the organization who are currently not on missions—have all gathered together.

Oh, and the handsome Fox Ten has finally escaped from the corpse of that 'swordfish' and rushed back to join Wolf One and the others.

Once everyone had arrived, Rabbit Twenty-Eight asked, "Wolf One, what important mission has summoned us here so urgently?"

Rabbit Twenty-Eight is a flat-chested girl with very long legs. The cultivation techniques of the Thirty-Three Beast God Sect affect the appearance and physique of cultivators. For example, Wolf One uses both hands and feet to run wildly, Ape Four has long arms, Whale Eight has thick skin, and Shark Nine has sharp teeth. Because of the cultivation techniques she practices, Rabbit Twenty-Eight is becoming more and more flat-chested, and her legs are getting longer and longer.

Wolf One said in a deep voice, "Whale Eight and Shark Nine failed their mission and were captured alive."

"Mission failed and captured alive? Two pieces of trash." Eagle Six sneered. He was a man with a hooked nose and a cold personality.

Commander Fox Ten spoke up in defense, "It wasn't their fault. Something unexpected happened during the mission; a powerful figure suddenly intervened. Whale Eight and Shark Nine had already cornered the target, but then they suddenly lost contact."

Everyone fell silent for a moment.

Tiger Twenty-Two, his face grim, asked, "What is the opponent's strength?"

Wolf One shook his head and said, "I don't know yet. Before you arrived, I sent Sheep Seven to send a reconnaissance plane to scout out their strength. Sheep Seven, do you have any intelligence now?"

Sheep Seven pushed up his radiation-proof glasses. "My small unmanned reconnaissance drone has been delivered to the coordinates you gave me, Wolf One. Perfect, let's use the drone to check the situation."

As he spoke, Sheep Seven reached out and tapped on the computer in front of him, connecting the computer to the projector.

The image of four small squares appeared on the projector.

Those were four small reconnaissance aircraft of various shapes and sizes.

Four small reconnaissance aircraft, one resembling a seabird, another the size of a palm-sized turtle, and two others the shape of small insects, have successfully infiltrated the island.

The one resembling a seabird successfully located Whale Eight and Shark Nine.

Through the video, everyone present saw a horrific sword wound on Shark Nine's chest, so deep that the bone was visible...

Whale Eight's injury was rather strange; his lower back was unusually dented, as if he had suffered a severe blow—but why would he choose to attack his lower back? That's not a suitable place to strike!

"Thankfully, at least Whale Eight and Shark Nine are still alive." Wolf One breathed a heavy sigh of relief. Whale Eight and Shark Nine were both veteran Second-Stage True Master, and were considered gold-level members of their current organization.

If he were to die unexpectedly, it would be enough to make Wolf One grieve so much that he wouldn't be able to sleep for nights on end.

As they were talking, the two insect-shaped reconnaissance planes captured other images.

A young monk with a serious expression and his hands clasped together.

A Pekingese dog with its tongue lolling out, seemingly talking?

And a kind-looking young man who seemed like a good person.

Two people and a dog are grilling food over a campfire...

Tiger Twenty-Two asked in a deep voice, "Were they the ones who injured Whale Eight and Shark Nine?"

Snake Twenty-Three licked his lips. "This little monk doesn't seem very strong. Judging from the images, his muscular physique, and his every move, we can roughly guess that he's a kid who just recently completed Foundation Establishment, at most just opened his Eye Aperture. Nothing to fear."

"That young man next to him is about the same. Judging from his movements and physical condition, he should also be a novice cultivator. He might be a bit stronger than the little monk, but he definitely hasn't reached the Second-Grade rank," Rabbit Twenty-Eight continued to analyze.

"What we need to be careful about is this Little Pekingese. Although we can't tell its strength, just because it can speak, it's at least Second-Grade or higher demon beast, and maybe even stronger," Snake Twenty-Three continued, licking his lips.

Demonic beasts possess formidable physical strength, and in the early stages, cultivators of the same level are generally no match for them.

When Fox Ten saw the little monk and the Pekingese in the crowd, he frowned slightly.

As they were talking, the reconnaissance plane disguised as a sea turtle captured another human figure on camera.

It was an extremely beautiful figure, like a celestial being descended from heaven. Just as the turtle-shaped reconnaissance plane captured the figure, the figure seemed to have noticed the reconnaissance plane as well, and came to the turtle's side with a smile.

"Oh no, we've been discovered!" Sheep Seven exclaimed.

"They came in so slowly. Turns out it's an unmanned machine. What a disappointment," the figure said softly, then reached out and gently patted the sea turtle.

With a snap... the turtle reconnaissance plane was disassembled into parts.

"Hmm, this design is quite interesting." A calm voice came from the last figure on the sea turtle reconnaissance plane.

"It's him!!!" At this moment, Fox Ten suddenly stood up—it was this ridiculously beautiful figure, wasn't he the beautiful senior who had suddenly pulled him onto the whale?

In fact, he had some doubts in his mind from the moment he saw the little monk and the Pekingese.

Now it's confirmed, it really is this senior!

That senior who stole his show-off tree branch and then gave him a ridiculously fast, unstoppable swordfish as a mount! It made him miss this mission.

Wolf One frowned. "Fox Ten, you know him?"

Fox Ten gave a wry smile and replied, "It was this terrifying senior who tricked me, preventing me from going to reunite with Whale Eight and Shark Nine."

Upon Wolf One frowned. "Did we trick you? Were they deliberately trying to sabotage our mission?"

"No, perhaps it's a coincidence. If he wanted to sabotage our mission... he could have just killed me back then," Fox Ten replied. He had personally experienced how terrifying that senior was. In the other's hands, he was like an ant, utterly powerless.

Tiger Twenty-Two, with a somber face, asked another question that everyone was concerned about, "How strong was that figure just now?"

"Extremely terrifying, bottomless," Fox Ten recalled. "In front of him, I felt like he could crush me with a single finger. Moreover, he was a terrifying senior who could draw runes from a distance and cast Mind-Control-Type Formation, Muddy-Water Formation, Spirit-Gathering Formation, and Tenfold Acceleration Formation on a tuna."

After Fox Ten finished speaking, all the members present fell silent.

Although Fox Ten is incredibly handsome and often carries out missions to 'get pretty girls to have his babies,' which arouses a lot of jealousy, his strength is genuinely at the Second-Stage True Master level, and his combat power is not much weaker than those present.

If the opponent could crush Fox Ten with a single finger, they could crush everyone present just as easily. Add to that their ability to draw runes from a distance and add terrifying arrays to the 'Swordfish's' sharp body... how can anyone carry out a mission peacefully under such circumstances?

"We can't confront them head-on; we must outsmart them," Chicken Eighteen said in a deep voice, echoing the sentiments of everyone present.

Eagle Six coldly asked, "How do we outsmart them?"

"First, we need to be clear about our target. We don't want to be enemies with this terrifying being. We just want to rescue our companions." Snake Twenty-Three licked his lips and continued, "We don't need to confront this terrifying being head-on. We can focus on other things. For example... this young man and the little monk. We can consider capturing this young man or the little monk and then negotiating to exchange for our companions."

Snake Twenty-Three seemed to be the team's strategist, and everyone nodded in agreement when they heard this.

Tiger Twenty-Two question, "So, which target should we choose to attack? Or should we capture both targets?"

"Catching both won't be easy... We'll have to adapt to the situation. In short, we need to catch at least one of them," said Snake Twenty-Three. "Of course, we should prioritize them. If we have a chance to catch both targets, but can only catch one, we should prioritize catching the one we can catch first, so that everyone has a clear objective."

Chicken Eighteen asked, "So, between the little monk and the young man, which should we prioritize capturing?"

The members started discussing it again.

At this time, Niu Er smiled honestly and said, "When traveling in the world, there are four taboos: Daoist priests, monks, women, and children. These four kinds of people are the most difficult to deal with. The young monk is both a monk and a child, so two of the four taboos make up the two. Let's choose young people to start!"

Wolf One nodded and made the decision. "Then it's decided. This young man will be our priority target. Snake Twenty-Three, devise several action plans. Tomorrow... we'll take action!"
