The Nether Dragon Organization was not quite like Blood Shadow in the Northern Abyss Cultivation World. Blood Shadow's first-level and second-level branches had similar functions.
Both gathered intelligence and accepted assassination missions.
In the Nether Dragon Organization, however, second-level branches mainly managed businesses and collected intelligence.
Any assassination was handled by a first-level branch.
Since they did not need to carry out assassination missions, their combat strength did not need to be particularly high.
Therefore, second-level branches had little need for Nascent Soul Cultivators.
Although Fire Lotus Island oversaw more than ten second-level branches, aside from the headquarters, only three branches with important mineral veins required Nascent Soul Cultivators to stand guard.
The Nether Flood Dragon pointed out five Nascent Soul Cultivators of the Ming Family. "Five uncles, I must trouble you to follow Senior Brother Thunder Flood Dragon's orders and help the Ming Family hold Fire Lotus Island and these surrounding branches.
"His orders are my orders. Do not harbor any sectarian prejudice."
An old man smiled. "Rest assured, Young Master. Thunder Flood Dragon is Nether Dragon Lord's personal disciple, so he can be considered one of our Ming Family.
"Whoever dares refuse his orders just because his surname is not Ming, I will never forgive him."
The others also voiced their willingness to obey Thunder Flood Dragon's commands.
The Nether Flood Dragon nodded in satisfaction. "Junior Brother Thunder Flood Dragon, Senior Brother Chen Flood Dragon and I still need to subdue the other branches as quickly as possible. I'll leave Fire Lotus Island to you."
Thunder Flood Dragon cupped his hands. "Rest assured, Young Master. I will certainly help you guard the Fire Lotus Island branch."
The Nether Flood Dragon patted his shoulder without saying anything further.
Then he left with Xuan Chen and the other Ming Family
