Capítulo 8638: Attention (1)

Upon hearing Chang Jun's words, Zhao Hai nodded. "You're right. We shouldn't directly attack their strongest place, but start from their weak places. Although there are no experts in these weak places, they are all the places where their disciples stay. If we really take care of all their disciples, they will definitely be anxious. At that time, they can only come out and find us. The most important thing is that we can also train our soldiers. Not bad, this is a good idea. Let’s do it."

Chang Jun's eyes lit up as Zhao Hai approved his proposal, and he eagerly asked, "Sect Master, when do we take action?" Everyone else turned their gazes toward Zhao Hai. They were eager to eliminate the Yin Yang Sect quickly. Once the Yin Yang Sect was gone, their power would surpass any other sect in the Blood Sea Realm, allowing them to operate openly there.

After a moment's reflection, Zhao Hai spoke gravely, "Don't rush. We must plan carefully. Don't let a few victories make you forget who you are. None of the nine great sects are pushovers. Consider how we handled the Corpse Demon Sect—if the Giant Demon Sect hadn't drawn away their main forces, dealing with them wouldn't have been so straightforward. So, we need thorough planning before launching any strike." The group nodded in agreement at Zhao Hai's reminder, falling silent. Then, Zhao Hai dove into discussing the operation's details with them, refining every step meticulously.

Truth be told, Zhao Hai's team held a clear edge here. Their small boat could transport everyone effortlessly, eliminating concerns about moving large groups to the Yin Yang Sect. Plus, as cultivators, each possessed invisible storage items, ensuring no shortages in provisions or gear. Thus, their campaign felt remarkably straightforward.

Following three more days of preparation, Zhao Hai and his allies finalized their assault on the Yin Yang Sect. Yet, success hinged on the Yin Ghost Sect's support, so Zhao Hai headed directly there. Upon arrival, he summoned Lin Dong and the others to Lin Dong's study. Gazing at them sternly, Zhao Hai declared, "I've reviewed the battle plan you submitted earlier. Yama's Order stands out as the strongest, though other sections need improvement. Keep learning. Now, onto striking the Yin Yang Sect. We're set to move, but we require your assistance. Any issues?" He asked bluntly, without mincing words.

Lin Dong and his companions rose promptly, responding firmly, "No problem, my Lord. Rest assured!" Zhao Hai had aimed his query at them specifically—Yama's Order needed no such check. Satisfied with their reply, he nodded approvingly.

With a wave, Zhao Hai motioned for them to resume their seats. Turning to Lin Dong, he instructed, "Lin Dong, your role in this is straightforward: provide cooperation without overcommitting. Here's the deal—I'll notify you once we're prepared. Gather the Yin Ghost Sect's forces and advance gradually toward the Yin Yang Sect. Move slowly, and ensure ample defenses remain at home base. The goal is to feign a full-scale offensive. Clear?"

Lin Dong paused briefly at Zhao Hai's directive but soon affirmed, "Yes, I understand, my Lord. You can count on us." He grasped the intent: draw the Yin Yang Sect's focus, enabling a stealthy strike that would leave them unprepared.

Zhao Hai gave a nod. "That's step one. Once we hit the Yin Yang Sect, accelerate your push and strike from dual fronts. They've concentrated all Island Master-level experts at Yin Yang Joyous Union Island now. Peripheral islands have weak defenses and no such powerhouses. Naturally, our assault might prompt reinforcements. Hence, hit hard and swift—secure as many islands as possible before they regroup against us. The more, the better."

“Yes, my Lord, I understand.” Lin Dong nodded deeply as he spoke. He had finally grasped Zhao Hai’s intention. Zhao Hai wasn’t merely intending for them to serve as decoys drawing the enemy’s fire; he wanted them to strike hard and fast. This was no simple undertaking.

Zhao Hai gazed at Lin Dong and declared solemnly, “Good, as long as you get it. Get the army ready and await my signal.” With those words, Zhao Hai’s form vanished from the chamber. He only had to brief Lin Dong. Yama’s orders required no further mention from him. Regardless of the distance, he could relay Yama’s commands straight through the space, rendering any direct communication unnecessary.

Once Zhao Hai departed, Lin Dong knitted his brows, pondering the assignment handed to him. Moments later, he announced, “The master has issued his command, so now it falls to us. All of you, make preparations. We previously declared war on the Yin Yang Sect, yet everyone’s focus shifted to the Corpse Demon Sect, overlooking us entirely. They failed to notice we never retracted that war declaration. Moreover, we’ve always appeared weak, so nobody suspects we remain at war with the Yin Yang Sect. Thus, mobilizing our troops this time will draw no criticism. No further declarations are needed. We’ll assemble our forces and gradually press toward the Yin Yang Sect. Clear?”

His words left the assembly stunned at first. Then enlightenment dawned. In warfare, mobilizing under the banner of justice was crucial; without it, foes could justify counterstrikes. Lin Dong emphasized this keenly, as did the nine great sects. Even the mighty Corpse Demon Sect had proclaimed the Giant Demon Sect’s unprovoked assaults before striking, knowing full well the pretense, yet clinging to that righteous pretext all the same.

Zhao Hai’s directive targeted the Yin Yang Sect, one of the nine major powers. Confronting them demanded such a righteous justification, hence Lin Dong’s careful phrasing—seemingly trivial, yet cloaked in moral authority.

Finishing his speech, Lin Dong scanned the group and intoned gravely, “Enough said. Return and ready yourselves. This comes straight from the master. Fail him, and he won’t spare you—even if I do. Truth be told, the master aids us greatly. Our grudge with the Yin Yang Sect runs deep. The Yin Ghost Sect’s downfall ties directly to them. He’s avenging us, lending us his strength. If we slack off, it’ll be tough to justify.”

The group nodded firmly at Lin Dong’s remarks. Indeed, their hatred for the Yin Yang Sect burned fierce. Absent their meddling, the Yin Ghost Sect wouldn’t have crumbled so. Killing intent flickered across their faces as they agreed.

Lin Dong faced Yama Ling next. “Mr. Mie, this stems from our master’s will too. Please lend your full support. Any issues, Mr. Mie?” Lin Dong recognized that though Yama Ling’s identity eluded the Dark Ghost Sect’s knowledge, kindred spirits abounded there—all Zhao Hai’s, commanded by Yama Ling. By true measure, Yama Ling’s might rivaled his own. Thus, utmost cooperation from Yama Ling proved essential.

“Rest assured, Master Lin, we’ll cooperate fully,” Yama Ling replied smilingly. Having received Zhao Hai’s directives already, he pledged maximum aid to Lin Dong. After all, it was Zhao Hai’s affair, so his instant assent eased Lin Dong’s mind.

By now, Zhao Hai had returned to the Space. The small boat sped toward the Yin Yang Sect. Their distance to it was short. Aware of the Yin Yang Sect’s assault path, they aimed to flank from the opposite side, pincering the enemy in a two-pronged assault.

The uproar from the Yin Ghost Sect's side swiftly caught the notice of the other sects, including the Yin Yang Sect. Right now, observers remembered that the Yin Ghost Sect and Yin Yang Sect remained locked in war. Since the Yin Ghost Sect had first declared war against the Yin Yang Sect, the Yin Yang Sect's retreat changed nothing unless the Yin Ghost Sect issued a peace treaty or truce. It was the Yin Ghost Sect that initiated the conflict, after all. Thus, the instant the Yin Ghost Sect rallied its forces, members of the Yin Yang Sect and other sects grasped that those Yin Ghost Sect people had no intention of halting talks with the Yin Yang Sect.

All sects now fixed their gaze on the Yin Ghost Sect. Internal strife gripped the Corpse Devil Sect. Yet, whether infighting or otherwise, the Corpse Devil Sect's might was still too formidable to challenge lightly. No side in that strife could be taken lightly. Amid this, focus on the Corpse Devil Sect gradually faded. Instead, attention sharpened on the Yin Yang Sect and Yin Ghost Sect—two among the nine great sects. Earlier, the Yin Ghost Sect had endured a crushing defeat at the Yin Yang Sect's hands, nearly shattering the entire sect. Such history made the Yin Ghost Sect's latest moves draw even fiercer scrutiny. At the same time, many found it baffling. Changes in the Blood Sea Realm had surged with stunning speed and volume in recent years—so overwhelming that tracking them all proved nearly impossible. Utterly perplexing.
