Protagonist:

Yu Zhangsheng

After bringing Ji Tian under control, the other two fared no better.

Every single one of them was besieged by at least two Purple Mansion True Lords.

Those injured Purple Mansion True Lords were captured alive without putting up much resistance at all.

This encirclement and capture basically didn't take much time; the majority of people had already surrendered, and the remaining few resisting forces were also quickly eliminated.

Xue Hongmei and Fan Hailong, seeing the situation was hopeless, also almost gave up resistance and were soon brought under control by the Wanxiang Sect Purple Mansion True Lords.

Wei Lao came before Yu Zhangsheng and reported, "Zhangsheng, this time we captured a full thirteen Purple Mansion True Lords!"

"What a pity that some Purple Mansion True Lords had already perished before we arrived; otherwise the haul would have been even greater."

Yu Zhangsheng nodded, "Being able to capture this many Purple Mansion True Lords is already not bad; any more and we would have difficulty dealing with them."

At this time, the captured Xue Hongmei and the other two were also escorted over.

The three knelt on the ground, their complexions extremely ugly.

They never could have imagined that all three of them would actually fall into Yu Zhangsheng's hands.

"Yu Zhangsheng, you're formidable, I'll give you that."

Ji Tian gritted his teeth and glared at Yu Zhangsheng, his chest heaving continuously.

The other two were in much the same state, both still very unreconciled.

Yu Zhangsheng gave Lu Sandao a look; Lu Sandao understood immediately and instantly stepped forward, delivering a heavy slap.

He struck Ji Tian until blood flowed from his mouth and nose, his cultivation base sealed, causing him to lose almost all power to resist.

Lu Sandao still didn't stop; he gave all three a round of "hospitality" before finally ceasing.

"Boss Yu, how should these three be dealt with? You just give the word!"

Yu Zhangsheng couldn't help but glance at this Lu Sandao; one had to admit this guy's ability to read the situation was extremely outstanding.

The only thing that made Yu Zhangsheng wary was that this guy was simply too unreliable, completely untrustworthy.

Otherwise Yu Zhangsheng would really have wanted to recruit him into the Wanxiang Sect.

"Take them into the mine cave; I imagine you're quite familiar with the process. From now on, you and another Purple Mansion True Lord will be responsible for guarding these people."

"Yes!"

Lu Sandao immediately half-kneeled on the ground to accept the order; he himself was well aware that the possibility of Yu Zhangsheng letting him go was not high.

Being able to reach this step today was already not bad for him.

Ji Tian gritted his teeth and spat out a mouthful of crimson blood, "Lu Sandao, you'll die a terrible death sooner or later!"

Lu Sandao's face twitched, and he kicked Ji Tian in the face several more times, rendering him completely unable to speak.

Soon, the dozen or so Purple Mansion pirates present and the remaining three thousand-plus pirate gang subordinates all had their cultivation bases sealed and were escorted to the area above the mine cave.

Wei Lao watched the crowd depart and couldn't help but nod.

This process was nothing if not thrilling, but unexpectedly, Yu Zhangsheng had actually pulled it off.

Capturing so many pirates alive — the difficulty is simply unimaginable.

You have to know, these four pirate families plus Lei Pangzi's group had a quantity of Purple Mansion True Lords several times that of the Wanxiang Sect.

Ordinary combat strength was even more completely crushing the Wanxiang Sect; the combined force of these five powers was something the Wanxiang Sect previously didn't dare offend at all, let alone think about capturing their people alive.

Yet Yu Zhangsheng really did it, and captured over a dozen Purple Mansion True Lords in one go; this feat truly astonished him endlessly.

"Sigh, seeing my Wanxiang Sect wanting to rise, besides this disciple of mine, there is no one else who could achieve it."

Wei Lao sighed in his heart and hurried to Yu Zhangsheng's side.

"Zhangsheng, capturing this many pirates this time should be more than enough to meet Hai Shou Tian Dao's requirements."

Yu Zhangsheng also smiled and nodded, "However, managing so many people is also a problem. Besides, these people are all pirates; making them behave honestly will be difficult."

"Wei Lao, the guard strength inside the mine cave must definitely be increased afterward. Especially that Lu Sandao — he must have people watching him closely."

"Once he has any secret collusion with these several pirate families, our people must be informed at the first moment."

Yu Zhangsheng's worry was also very necessary; Wei Lao immediately indicated he would go arrange it.

"Those personnel borrowed from the Sixth Holy Maiden must be treated well. Without these people, my Wanxiang Sect would not have been able to win this easily."

"Mm, take a portion of the spoils of war obtained as payment. As for the specific quantity, Wei Lao, you decide."

"No problem."

As for the benefits for the other disciples and the Wanxiang Sect Purple Mansion True Lords, these also don't need Yu Zhangsheng to consider; Wei Lao can naturally arrange them properly.

This time's harvest, besides manpower, the largest part naturally is the things on these pirates.

Those four pirate families previously plundered four mine caves! How many benefits these four mine sites have, Yu Zhangsheng hasn't estimated, but even just referencing the Wanxiang Sect one can roughly infer — there are definitely a lot of good things.

Just the ore obtained is sufficient to cope with the next tribute quota.

The various other treasures simply cannot be counted.

Yu Zhangsheng has no interest in most things, merely mentioning a few alchemy materials to Wei Lao.

As for the rest, it's all handed over to the Sect to handle; Yu Zhangsheng isn't greedy.

The other several peaks are already overjoyed; to them this time is truly like celebrating the New Year.

Paying only an extremely small price to reap such a huge harvest — there is simply no better deal than this.

Several people are already grinning from ear to ear, their reverence for Yu Zhangsheng deepening even further.

Without Yu Zhangsheng, where would they have today's harvest? It's simply unimaginable even in dreams.

"Changsheng, this time we truly have to properly thank you!"

"Hahaha, Changsheng, you really are my Wanxiang Sect's lucky star."

"With you, my Wanxiang Sect will surely rise to the next level."

"Changsheng, what should we do next? Should we go catch some more pirates?"

Yu Changsheng froze for a moment, not expecting that there were still people who were actually unsatisfied with this time's harvest.

"I say, several seniors, we should still rest for a bit. Right now there are too many troublesome matters; it's not suitable to provoke too much right and wrong."

"This time I was also forced by circumstances, with no choice, which is why I chose to take the risk and move against this pirate force."

"And more importantly, although this pirate force was powerful, internally they were scattered and each fought for themselves; that is what gave us an opening to exploit."

"The remaining pirates in this Beihai Domain are all consolidated major forces; just the Purple Mansion True Monarch experts number at least two digits. With our current strength, we are simply no match."

The several people slowly nodded, also understanding that this time they truly had been dizzy with victory.

"What Changsheng says is right; what we should do now is digest this time's harvest and maximize our strength improvement."

"Mm, not bad; it was us who were rash."

The several people also came to understand during this while; just this time's enormous harvest is enough to let Wanxiang Sect's people from top to bottom all have an improvement once.

The number of people whose realms grow is estimated to be no less than three layers.

"Report!"

Just at this time, a disciple suddenly rushed over in great haste. "What matter?"

"Four forces have brought people and rushed over."

The people present were all dubious; at this time, who could there be?

Yu Changsheng also recalled, "It should be the people coming to support from the other four islands; they actually only arrived now?"

Wei Lao coldly humphed: "They probably never thought to come support at all; they just came over to demand benefits."

Li Jiran asked: "Changsheng, how should we deal with these people?"

Yu Changsheng coldly laughed, "If they truly have the intention to support, I would truly have to thank them."

"If they come to take advantage of a fire to rob, I naturally have methods to deal with them. Come, let's go take a look first then speak."

Very quickly, Yu Changsheng brought Wanxiang Sect's group of people to welcome them.

Those four islands' people had also already arrived; seeing the surrounding mess, they were secretly shocked.

This while, the corpses on the ground Yu Changsheng and the others still hadn't had time to clean up.

Just from these corpses one could also see how fierce the battle situation was at that time.

However, these people didn't know that actually eighty percent of these corpses were left behind when they fought internally.

They still thought Yu Changsheng and the others had truly encountered a pirate attack.

The leader was a man wearing a felt hat, with a thin and weak build.

He couldn't help but gloat: "Hehe, this battle situation really is fierce; how are your Wanxiang Sect's losses?"

Such a blunt inquiry immediately made several Wanxiang Sect Peak Masters frown; some with violent tempers were about to move, all stopped by Yu Changsheng.

"Several seniors, my Wanxiang Sect has already passed the crisis; there is no need for you all to act further. Please return."

That leading tall thin man coldly humphed: "Do you really think we are people you, a mere little steward, can order about?"

Yu Changsheng asked: "Since it's like this, what do you want?"

That tall thin man sized them up for a moment, scanned a circle around the surroundings, then laughed: "Looking at the corpses on the ground, your harvest this time should be not small."

"Hand over seventy percent of what you obtained; just consider it our hard-earned fee!"

"You're talking nonsense!"

Yin Tianba angrily cursed, drew his precious saber and was about to chop over.

That tall thin man likewise made a move, and exchanged one move with Yin Tianba; both sides retreated, it was merely a probe.

"You just experienced a great battle; if you truly want us four islands to act here, have you considered the consequences well!"

This tall thin man thought that after Yu Changsheng and the others experienced a great battle, they were already powerless to fight again; plus with their four islands joining forces, he determined Yu Changsheng and the others wouldn't dare resist, which is why he was so arrogant.

Yu Changsheng and the others were instead all in a posture ready to act at any time; Yu Changsheng even released his spirit beast, preparing to meet battle.

Yu Changsheng's tough attitude also made that tall thin man mutter in his heart.

Could it be Yu Changsheng and the others still have remaining strength? However, looking at the number of Wanxiang Sect disciples around, it seems Wanxiang Sect didn't suffer too great losses.

At this time, another person also said in a low voice by the tall thin man's ear: "It looks like these Wanxiang Sect people didn't lose much; you all look at the corpses on the ground — extremely few are Wanxiang Sect people."

"We didn't bring many people this time; better to first go back and request reinforcements, then make plans."

That tall thin man looked carefully, and it really was so; moreover Yu Changsheng and the others' appearances also didn't look like the appearance after a bitter battle.

"Hmph! Wanxiang Sect's people, don't think this matter ends just like this!"

"We're leaving!"

That tall thin man immediately led people away; very quickly the four islands' people departed far away.

Yin Tianba spat a mouthful, disdainfully saying: "I still thought there were more benefits delivered to the door! Turns out they're all a bunch of trash."

Although the four islands' people left, there were still some people who didn't understand the overall situation and were worried.

"After they go back, I'm afraid they'll unite the four islands' people to make things difficult for us; if we don't hand over enough benefits, I'm afraid they won't let it rest."

Yu Changsheng laughed: "After they return to their respective islands, they absolutely won't have any more thoughts of moving against us."

The several people were still confused, but very quickly, news of the four islands being attacked spread out.

On the islands, there was actually not a single survivor; all were slaughtered by those pirates; therefore fundamentally no news flowed out.

Only after the four islands' people who went out to support returned did they discover this matter.

The four islands' people were furious, inquiring everywhere for news; only then did they know it was actually a pirate surprise attack, launching a massacre on their respective islands.

But those four pirate gangs had long since been exterminated by Yu Changsheng and the others; they don't even have an object for revenge.

And even more critically, the Si Dao therefore suffered a severe loss of strength, and simply had no spare capacity to retaliate against Yu Changsheng and the others.

Even fulfilling the ore requirements of the Hai Shou Tian Dao was a problem; they paid an enormous price just to cope.

However, these are all later matters; at this moment, Yu Changsheng, after dealing with these troubles, immediately brought the Wanxiang Sect people to clean up the battlefield and return to the mine cave.

This battle also spread quickly. The matter of the Wanxiang Sect relying on the strength of a single sect to exterminate the five major pirate forces was also soon known by all major forces.

"Unexpectedly, this Wanxiang Sect really exterminated so many pirates?"

"In the entire Beihai Yu, aside from the pirates of the largest force, they were actually all exterminated by the Wanxiang Sect; it is simply unbelievable."

"It seems the words the Wanxiang Sect released that day have truly been fulfilled successfully."

"Just what is the background of this Wanxiang Sect? It really is quite formidable."

"Hehe, this Wanxiang Sect really makes us look at it with new eyes."

"Merely a small sect of no renown, yet it actually accomplished what all other major forces failed to do; how rare."

On the Spirit Boat, a rocking chair swayed gently; the young woman slowly rose and looked into the distance.

The old man behind her followed silently, not leaving her side for a moment.

Chen Xueqing's bright eyes flickered, and she murmured to herself: "Unexpectedly, he really did it; although there is still a very long distance from what he said about purging all pirates in this Beihai Yu."

"But relying on a mere tiny Wanxiang Sect to kill thirty-odd Sub-Talisman True Lord pirates, and ordinary pirates eliminated numbered over a thousand; it is also truly no easy feat."

The old man behind her did not change expression, exceedingly calm.

"This person does have some ability; otherwise he would not be valued by the Young Miss."

"It is just that the reason our Hai Shou Tian Dao did not act to clean up these trash is merely because behind these pirates there are shadows of some Hai Shou Tian Dao Elders."

"Otherwise, how could these pirates have run rampant for so long."

"This time, Yu Changsheng in one move cleared out so many pirates; he has certainly touched the interests of some people; the troubles afterward, I fear he will find difficult to parry."

Chen Xueqing pursed her lips and smiled lightly, "Is that so? Uncle Lin thinks he cannot do it?"

"I happen to have a bit of confidence in him; how about the two of us make a bet?"

The old man smiled: "What the Young Miss values, this old servant naturally also agrees with; no need for a bet."

Chen Xueqing sighed helplessly, "Uncle Lin, you really are boring; however, I am curious how he will resolve the later troubles." (Chapter End)
