Chapter 772 - 376: Acting Alone, Ambushed on the Road
"I really looked into this!"
Zhang Zisong’s spirit lifted, and he immediately spoke with delight, "The Cyan Spirit Sect is said to have once been the Spirit King’s most loyal Spirit Sect. They followed the Spirit King for the longest time and chose to shatter rather than submit during this event, refusing to bow to that Alchemist."
"The old ancestor of the Cyan Spirit Sect was injured on the spot by Chongyuan and another person, and even the very important Mountain Guardian Giant of the Cyan Spirit Sect was killed by them."
"Because of this, everyone in the Cyan Spirit Sect was extremely angry, but they couldn’t do anything about it."
Upon hearing Zhang Zisong’s words, Fang Yu’s eyes lit up, and his mind began to come alive.
After a moment, Fang Yu suddenly made some decision, and then said to Zhang Zisong, "I think the key to us capturing the West Cyan Continent this time lies with the Cyan Spirit Sect."
"Zhang Zisong, prepare yourself, and follow me as we set sail first to the West Cyan Continent, to have a chat with the Cyan Spirit Sect!"
Zhang Zisong was stunned, but since the major had made such a decision, he said nothing more and turned to leave, preparing to pack his things.
Watching Zhang Zisong’s departing figure, Fang Yu wasted no time in calling over the Sea Race chief and Wang Yun: "Two of you, I might need to break away from the team and head to the West Cyan Continent ahead of time."
Hearing Fang Yu’s words, both were startled and wanted to dissuade Fang Yu.
The army had not yet arrived, but the commander was going there first. If anything happened, this war might end without incident. Fang Yu’s trip was fraught with great danger.
Upon hearing their concerns, Fang Yu nodded slightly but proceeded to relay the information Zhang Zisong had just brought back to the two.
Then Fang Yu spoke firmly, "The enemy has five Sky Dome Ship combat forces and the support of twenty-three cave heavens, making their military strength roughly equal to ours, but their top-level combat power is much stronger than ours."
"Moreover, the enemy holds the advantage of fighting on their home turf."
"If we don’t find a way to break through from other angles and proactively incite internal conflict, we have no chance of winning this war."
Upon hearing Fang Yu’s words, Wu Shuo and Wang Yun exchanged glances, each seeing a solemn look in the other’s eyes.
They didn’t expect that the West Cyan Continent had already been unified by Chongyuan.
Even without the support of the Alien Race, this combat power nearly constituted half of the West Cyan Continent’s strength.
With half the continent’s strength, does everyone really stand a chance of winning?
Fang Yu glanced at the serious-faced pair.
There was actually one more thing he didn’t say.
Fang Yu didn’t know much about the old ancestors of the three major Spirit Sects on the West Cyan Continent, but he was no stranger to Yuanqi and Chongyuan.
Sky Dome Ship experts at the level of Peacekeeping Council members are incomparable to ordinary Sky Dome Ship experts. Whether it’s Yuanqi or Chongyuan, both have massive backgrounds, their strength profoundly unfathomable.
Facing them head-on, just Yuanqi and Chongyuan could completely stand against our three Sky Dome Ship experts, perhaps even surpass them.
By then, if the old ancestors from the other three major Spirit Sects make a move, how could we fight? There would be no chance of victory.
However, right now, there was still a flaw in the enemy’s internal opposition to Yuanqi, and this was Fang Yu and the others’ only opportunity.
At this moment, as Fang Yu spoke, clarifying the stakes, the expressions of Wu Shuo and Wang Yun shifted slightly. They exchanged a glance and then could only nod.
"Do you need us to come with you in advance?"
Wang Yun looked at Fang Yu and then asked.
"No need. The army advances, and the two of you, as the deputy commanders of this expedition, must stay with the army to maintain order."
"Otherwise, while still on the march, if the army’s morale starts to decline, it would be counterproductive."
Fang Yu spoke softly.
Before entering this world, he never thought he would become a commander of an army.
But with the experience from various battles, Fang Yu’s military experience advanced rapidly. Naturally, he knew the difference in morale between having a commander overseeing the army and having none during the march.
Especially in the Ocean World, the boost in morale for the army needs no further explanation, so he let the two of them oversee the army and march along.
As for Fang Yu himself, he would take the lead and go to the West Cyan Continent to create an opportunity for the matter at hand.
Since the plans were made, the two said no more, nodded toward Fang Yu, and said, "Rest assured, we will lead the army to the West Cyan Continent and... shall we meet at Star Origin Island?"
Wang Yun pointed to an island near the West Cyan Continent on the sea chart, speaking earnestly.
"Alright, after I’ve finished my affairs, when you arrive, we shall meet on Star Origin Island!"
Fang Yu nodded.
...
After that, Fang Yu quietly used his Space Law ability to conceal his Salted Fish ship. Then, with Zhang Zisong, he quickly departed the army and set sail for the West Cyan Continent with all haste.
...
On the way, they sped along, even encountering attacks from powerful extraordinary beings.
But now, Fang Yu had not only awakened the bloodline of the Holy Dragon but also received the Sea God’s legacy.
Facing these extraordinary beings’ attacks, Fang Yu’s ship merely released its aura, causing these extraordinary beings to flee in panic.
On this voyage, Fang Yu contemplated the progress of the laws while taking out the map of the West Cyan Continent, with a thoughtful look, analyzing all possible future scenarios.
Day by day, time passed.
