190: Chapter 189 Eating Meat

He stared fixedly at the young figure standing at the prow of the boat, his eyes filled with disbelief.

"Dragon's might..." his voice was hoarse, "How could this kid have Dragon's might on him?"

No one answered him.

Because Zhou Lie had already struck again!

He was like an enraged tiger, pouncing rapidly toward Zeng Guan! His fists rained down like raindrops, each punch carrying violent crimson-gold fist energy!

Zeng Guan gritted his teeth, resisting with all his might!

But he was a spell cultivator and not skilled in close-quarters combat. Facing a veteran Sea Quelling Department officer like Zhou Lie, he had absolutely no power to fight back!

Three moves.

Merely three moves.

Zeng Guan's protective azure light was shattered by a single punch!

Five moves.

His chest was struck by a punch, three of his ribs snapped, and he spat out a mouthful of blood!

Seven moves.

His skull was shattered by a punch!

Zeng Guan's corpse fell from mid-air, smashing into the sea and splashing up a spray of blood-colored waves.

Seeing this, those Heavenly Heart Sect Disciples were terrified out of their wits and turned to flee!

But how could the soldiers of the Sea Quelling Department let them escape?

Twenty Mystic Armor Soldiers struck simultaneously, their blade lights and sword shadows crisscrossing!

Although those Heavenly Heart Sect Disciples had two at the Initial Stage of Yuanxiang, they could not last long under the siege of twenty elite soldiers.

An incense stick of time later, the battle ended.

More than twenty Heavenly Heart Sect Disciples were all executed.

The two flying boats slowly drew closer.

Zhou Lie stood on the deck, crimson-gold light flowing around his body, his breathing slightly rapid. Having killed over twenty people in a row, even for him, the consumption was not small.

But he could not afford to take time to regulate his breathing.

He took out a communication Jade Slip and probed it with his Divine Sense.

"Commander."

His voice was low and grave.

"The Heavenly Heart Sect intercepted and killed our men, and they have all been executed. But this matter is of great importance—the Heavenly Heart Sect colluded with Blood Bone Venerable, coveting the jiaolong remains. That letter is undoubtedly authentic."

"I await your decision, Commander."

There was silence in the Jade Slip for three breaths.

Then, a low and deep voice sounded:

"Understood."

"You are to wait in place. I will come personally."

As the voice fell, the light in the Jade Slip dissipated.

Zhou Lie put away the Jade Slip and let out a long sigh.

He turned and looked at Jiang Hanzhou.

That youth was currently standing by the ship's rail, looking at the floating Blood Puppets corpses on the sea surface.

Faint dark golden light still lingered around his body.

That was the lingering charm of Dragon's might.

Zhou Lie looked at him and remained silent for a long time.

Then, he stepped forward and bowed solemnly:

"Brother Jiang, thank you for earlier."

Jiang Hanzhou turned around, looked at him, and shook his head slightly.

"It was only right."

His voice was calm as water.

But in his heart, he was thinking about another matter.

Heavenly Heart Sect.

This School that dared to covet the jiaolong remains had now taken the initiative to intercept the Sea Quelling Department, which was already seeking its own death.

With Xu Zhaoyang taking action personally, the Heavenly Heart Sect would surely be destroyed tonight.

And after the Heavenly Heart Sect was destroyed, their territory, industries, and resources in Star Continent Anchorage—who would those things fall into the hands of?

The Sea Quelling Department? Dragon Abyss Palace? Or those small factions in Star Continent Anchorage?

A smile slowly curled at the corners of Jiang Hanzhou's mouth.

He reached into his sumeru pouch and took out a palm-sized crimson jade talisman.

Myriad-Mile communication talisman.

The one he had left for Jiang Tao.

He channeled his True Qi and probed it with his Divine Sense.

The voice of Jiang Tao came from the jade talisman, carrying a hint of surprise:

"Master? You have finally contacted me!"

Jiang Hanzhou smiled slightly, his voice calm as water:

"Jiang Tao, there is something I need you to do."

"Star Continent Anchorage, Heavenly Heart Sect, must perish tonight."

"Take the people from the Prodigal Society, contact those small factions dissatisfied with the Heavenly Heart Sect, and get ready."

"Once the Heavenly Heart Sect is destroyed, take action immediately—seize territory, seize industries, seize resources."

"Seize as much as you can."

"Strive to let the Prodigal Society eat a big piece of meat after the Heavenly Heart Sect is destroyed."

There was silence in the jade talisman for three breaths.

Then, Jiang Tao's voice sounded, carrying unconcealable excitement:

"Master, leave it to me!"

"The Prodigal Society will not let you down!"

Jiang Hanzhou put away the communication talisman and turned to look at the western horizon.

There, the night was falling.

In the direction of Star Continent Anchorage, lights were gradually lighting up.

The destruction of the Heavenly Heart Sect would be the beginning of the rise of the Prodigal Society.

And he only needed to wait to close the net.

The sea breeze brushed his face, blowing his sleeves.

He closed his eyes, and deep within his Sea of Consciousness, the Heart Blade floated quietly.

On the dark golden blade, those winding, dragon-like patterns flickered slightly in the night.

That was the brand of Dragon's might.

That was his new power.

This night was destined to be restless.
