Translator: 549690339

(Congratulations to counterattack of misfortune for becoming the new alliance master of this book, thank you)

The Xue family could be considered a family that had long set their sights on the world.

!!
When the people of the world had their eyes on the land, they had cast their gazes on the ocean.

Of course, to a certain extent, this was also inspired by the Earl of Gimli.

More than a hundred years ago, the entire eastern coastal area of the State of Yue was ravaged by Pirates, and the Xue family suffered a disaster.

Jin Lu appeared out of nowhere and annihilated all the Pirates along the coastline of thousands of miles with his own strength.

It was also from that time that the Xue family began to consciously manage the ocean.

For decades, after several generations of hard work, they had finally achieved some success. The Xue family had gradually shifted its focus to the ocean.

However, it was also at that time that the Jin family had a family head who valued the ocean. He was the Golden universe Earl. He tried his best to borrow millions of gold coins from the yin Yuan Association and hired an entire fleet of ships and tens of thousands of troops to attack the Pirate King Qiu Tianwei and seize the Leizhou archipelago.

At that time, the Xue family was not only the Jin family’s absolute ally, but also their in-laws for generations. Moreover, the other party had business on the sea, so the two sides naturally hit it off.

Furthermore, the Xue clan had shown great enthusiasm in helping the Jin clan.

Who knew that the Xue family would join hands with the yin Yuan Association and bring the Jin family’s Alliance Army to hell.

Many people did not know why.

Could it be because kindness had turned into enmity?

Of course not.

Because the benefits of the ocean were limited. The Xue family had already taken the benefits of the ocean, so of course they didn’t want the Jin family to take them.

Moreover, under the leadership of Yin Yuan Association, the Xue family and Qiu Tianwei also had a lot of interest exchanges.

Qiu Tianwei occupied the trading rights of the eastern sea, while Xue che occupied the trading rights of the southern sea.

The Earl of golden universe had great ambition but lacked talent. He would certainly die if he barged in rashly.

The Leizhou archipelago was over 10000 square kilometers.

The Xue family’s southern continent islands were about the same, about seventeen thousand square kilometers.

After several decades of operation, they already had a population of several hundred thousand.

Although the area of the farms on these islands was not very large, the climate was hot, and there were three harvests a year.

As a result, not only was food self-sufficient, but it could also produce salt in large quantities.

Gold Mountain Island had iron mines, and so did the southern islands.

Not only that, but the Xue family also had two large businesses.

Palm oil, a precious wood.

Thousands of miles away from the southern sea, there were dozens of countries of various sizes. There were countless primitive forests that were rich in palm oil and precious wood.

The entire Yue country, and even the entire Eastern dynasty’s wealthy and Noble families, all liked scented Rosewood and red sandalwood.

And more than half of these businesses were monopolized by the Xue family and the hidden essence Association.

Compared to the Jin family’s Grand conquest of raging tide city, the Xue family was the one who had truly made a fortune in silence.

This family was truly rich enough to rival a country.

It was precisely because of the wealth and benefits that the Xue clan was able to climb up stupa mountain and the Empire.

Therefore, when Xue che returned to Yue country from Yan capital, ning yuanxian appeared to be very sincere, but Xue che did not react strongly.

This was because his vision had long surpassed the State of Yue and was set on the entire Great Yan Empire.

It was also because of this wealth that the Xue family had a powerful fleet and a powerful southern sea Sword sect.

……………………

“The Zhong family lost.” Xue Che’s eyes narrowed,’so fast? The Nirvana Army should not have appeared in this world.”

He was playing with a piece of Jade in his hand. It was a piece of Jade that had just been mined. According to the words on earth, it was glass type, a top-grade Jade.

He held the Jade in his left hand and the glass in his right.

This glass was also produced by Shen lang, and it had become a luxury item that was popular in the eastern world.

After a careful comparison, he found that the glass was more crystal clear.

“We can’t do the Jade business anymore.” Xue che said, ” the cost of Shen Lang’s glass is shockingly low. Even if we excavate our Jade, we can’t sell it at a higher price than them. Furthermore, their glass already has various colors.

however, our Jade is natural while Shen Lang’s glass is man-made. It’s not as valuable as our Jade. “So, in the end, glass can’t beat Jade,” the manager in charge of the Jade business said.

Xue che said,”that’s true, but at least ten to twenty years later.” The rarer something is, the more valuable it is. The amount of glass that Shen lang and the Heaven’s Will release every year is less than our Jade, and the price is high but not high enough. There are even rumors that the glass is refined from Jade. How are we going to do this business?”

Glass was refined from Jade. Who was the one who spread this shameless rumor?

Of course, it was Shen lang. If he didn’t do that, how could the glass be sold at such a high price?

“Do we still want those Jade pits?” the shopkeeper asked.

“Yes, of course I want it.” not only do we want those few Jade mines, ” Xue che said. we’re going to buy all the Jade mines and seal them up completely. We’re going to reduce the production of Jade in the entire Eastern world and make it rarer and rarer. In a few decades, glass would be available on a large scale, and its value would plummet, turning from a luxury item to an ordinary item. At that time, the Imperial Jade will be able to rise again.”

“My Lord is wise,” the shopkeeper said with a bitter expression.

It was a wise decision, but it had nothing to do with him.

Because the Lord’s strategy would take at least a few decades to see results, by that time, his son would have already retired.

“Father, the Empire’s emissaries have arrived.” Xue Pan said.

……………………

“Che pays his respects to Your Highness.” Xue che was about to kneel.

The emissary of the Empire was still Prince Lian.

“Zhongyao lost.” Prince Lian said.

“I’ve already heard about it,” Xue che replied.

“It’s fine if you’ve lost. Continue with your plan,” Prince Lian said.

“Yes, I’m gathering the Army,” Xue che replied. Once they’re assembled, they can completely annihilate the Jin family’s naval fleet, take over the raging tide city, and completely seal off the entire Eastern Sea region.”

Prince Lian said,”I once promised Zhong Yao that as long as he destroyed the Nirvana Army, the Zhong family would establish their own country.” Now, on behalf of the Empire, I promise you that as long as you destroy the Jin family’s naval fleet and seal off the eastern sea area of the Yue country, the Empire will allow the Xue family to establish their own country. How about the name of the South continent Duchy?”

Xue che immediately knelt down and kowtowed. I would never dare to have such thoughts. For generations, the Xue family has only wanted to be loyal to the Empire. We have no intention of establishing our own country.

Prince Lian’s eyes narrowed.

From this sentence alone, it could be seen that Xue che was much more brilliant than Zhong Yao.

Regardless of whether it was Zhongyao or su Nan, they both had an obsession in their minds, which was to establish their own country.

But don’t you all know that His Majesty already wants to completely unify the world?

When the time comes, you won’t even be able to protect your Kingdom, much less your Duchy.

Although the Empire allows you to establish your own empire, you are not very happy about it.

Xue che was the only one who made a fortune.

The Xue family was clearly richer than the SU and Zhong families, but they were still Earls. Even Jin Zhuo had been promoted to Marquis.

“Then what do you want?” asked Prince Lian. The Empire will not let you work for nothing.”

after we take down Leizhou archipelago and raging tide city, ” Xue che said, ” I am willing to manage Leizhou archipelago for the Empire.

Prince Lian of the imperial family leaned back slightly.

This was a smart plan. They didn’t want the Duchy’s name or the king of a country. Instead, they wanted the right to rule the Leizhou islands.

This was not just an archipelago, but also the trading rights of the eastern sea of Yue State.

Xue che, you’ve wanted to attack the Leizhou archipelago for a long time, right? ” Prince Lian said.

“Your Royal Highness, I’m sorry.” Xue che kowtowed.

Not only that, but they were also drooling.

The Xue family had risen by walking the ocean’s path. Now the Jin family wanted to copy the Xue family’s path. How could this be allowed?

20 years ago, Xue che had finally managed to destroy the Jin family’s future. Now that the Jin family was about to rise again, how could he not be anxious?

It could be said like this.

From the moment Shen lang killed Qiu Tianwei and took over raging tide city … The Xue family was preparing for this battle. They were preparing to destroy the Jin family and take over raging tide city.

alright, I’ll give you the Leizhou islands and raging tide city. Prince Lian said.

The two of them didn’t make any private deals, but the Lian Prince had a share in the Xue family business.

In the ten years he had been in Yan capital, Xue che had already used his interests to create a huge net.

Prince Lian said, ” Xue che, I’ll repeat myself. Zhongyao has lost. It’s not a big deal. However, it’s extremely important to destroy the Jin clan and completely seal off the eastern sea region. You’re only one of the countries that received the order. The Wu country in the North, the Empire’s fleet further north, and the alien race’s fleet further north have all received the Empire’s will. They’ve completely sealed off the entire Eastern world’s Sea region. More than fifteen thousand miles from north to south, with a total of more than ten fleets participating.”

Xue Che’s body trembled slightly at these words.

Such a big move?

More than 15000 li of ocean?

Xue che was only in charge of two to three thousand li.

What had happened?

They actually wanted to seal off more than ten thousand miles of the sea?

“You’re a smart person, so you should know the weight of this. I won’t tell you why, but I can tell you that the world is going to fall apart soon.”

Xue che kowtowed. I only care about following the will of the Empire. I do not dare to speculate.

“Alright, do your job well.” Prince Lian said. This is a once-in-a-thousand-years opportunity, and you’ve caught it. His contribution is greater than the heavens, but he did it with ease.”

“This Minister will obey your decree!”

………………

After the Lian Prince left.

Xue che arrived in front of the huge map.

From this map, it could be seen that he was different from the other nobles of Yue country.

Jin clan’s map only included the eastern sea region of Yue State.

Ning yuanxian’s map only included the borders of Yue State.

However, Xue Che’s map was of the entire Eastern world’s oceans and islands.

His gaze traveled from the northernmost sea of eternal frost to the southernmost Island of compassion. The straight line distance was more than sixteen thousand eight hundred miles.

Something had happened, something big had definitely happened.

Otherwise, the Empire would not have used such a large force.

A total of more than ten fleets from several countries were dispatched to seal off more than ten thousand miles of the sea.

What was it sealing?

Or rather, who were they sealing off?

Something big must have happened.

What exactly happened?

Xue che didn’t really want to know. He only knew what great benefits he could get from this.

The Lian Prince had said that this was a once-in-a-thousand-years opportunity to easily make such a great contribution.

Jin family?

Perhaps he was just an insignificant side character in this big show.

The Jin family and the Leizhou islands were only a small obstacle to the Empire’s plan?

………………

The Xue family’s fleet had already finished gathering.

The reason why they hadn’t set off was because they hadn’t reached an agreement.

Now that they had come to an agreement, they could naturally set off.

The one leading the Army was Yan nanfei. Not only was he one of the martial grandmasters and the leader of the southern sea Sword sect, but he also had a close relationship with stupa mountain.

Xue che said,”brother, You Must Remember This.” we used the smallest price to destroy the Jin family and even killed everyone in raging tide city. We don’t need everyone in raging tide city, we only want this Island. Also, we must exterminate the Jin family, from an 80-year-old woman to a child waiting to be fed, we must not let them go.”

Yan nanfei cupped his hands and said,”brother, I’ll remember it.”

we are brothers, ” Xue che said. one of us is in charge of the internal affairs, and the other is in charge of the external Affairs. You’ve worked hard.

“It’s been hard on you, brother,” Yan nanfei said.

“Xue Pan, come over here.” Xue che said.

Xue Pan, the heir of the Xue clan, walked over.

Xue che said, ” you should come with me to learn. You’ve been on the surface for too long. You need to go to the ocean to gain some experience.

“Yes,” Xue Pan bowed.

“Then I’ll leave everything in the family to you, brother,” Yan nanfei said.

Xue che said, ” don’t worry. Our family’s base, the South continent archipelago, is more than two thousand miles away from land. With the Xue family fleet, the South continent archipelago will be safe.

Yan nanfei and Xue Pan boarded the Xue clan’s tall flagship.

“Let’s go!”

An order was given.

The flag fluttered.

The Xue family’s fleet left the dock of the southern island islands and headed northeast in the direction of raging tide city. The distance was more than three thousand and five hundred miles.

“Brother, remember, cut the weeds and eliminate the roots!”

On the highest Castle in the South Province city.

Ning Qi and Xue Xue watched the Xue family’s fleet leave.

This fleet could really be called vast and mighty.

There were more than 200 ships of various sizes, and a total of 30000 people.

Of course, this was also an Alliance Army.

sixty percent of them belonged to the xue clan, and the other forty percent were ships of the nearby forces.

It was like this every time they started a war.

As the leader of this Sea region, the Xue family had to bring other forces. First, it was to increase their combat power, and second, to protect the safety of the land.

Otherwise, after the main fleet left and left behind a large number of underlings, what if they became restless and had ambitions that they should not have?

Some people might ask.

Previously, Qiu Tianwei had 30000 Pirates. Now, Xue che could gather another 30000 Allied forces?

Could this Sea region breed so many forces on the sea?

Of course you can!

This was the trade benefits of more than four to five thousand miles of the sea surface, and the forces of dozens of countries, big and small.

During the Jiaqing period of the Qing Dynasty, the great pirate, Zhang baozai, occupied a much smaller territory. But at his peak, he had thousands of ships of all kinds and more than 70000 Pirates.

Ning Qi looked at the fleet with a complicated expression.

Your Highness! Xue Xue stepped forward and hugged ning Qi from behind. She said softly, ” you don’t have to be sad. I have a feeling that your era is coming soon.

Ning Qi did not say anything.

After he came to the Xue family’s territory, the Xue family was still respectful to him.

In particular, Xue che came to pay his respects every day and still regarded him as the young Emperor, but ning Qi could still feel the feeling of living under someone else’s roof.

………………

Ning Qi was not the only one watching the Xue family’s fleet leave from the castle. There was another person, the former governor of the Blackwater station, yan e.

This was also a top expert who had the strength of a Grandmaster, but not the name of one.

His heart was even more complicated.

He was a true direct descendant of ning yuanxian, and could be considered as Xue che and Yan nanfei’s senior brother.

Because of benefits, because of deeper disputes, he had walked further and further on the road of the Xue family.

But he really had no intention of rebelling against ning yuanxian.

Therefore, when he went to catch ning gang and saw that ning yuanxian had woken up, he immediately gave up all resistance and knelt on the ground.

However, he couldn’t get off the ship of the Xue clan and ning Qi.

Moreover, it was impossible for ning yuanxian to trust him anymore, so he chose to leave.

Although this place is good, it is not my hometown. I hope that one day, I can return to Tian Yue.

………………

The Xue family’s fleet was the absolute Overlord of this Sea area. It was only when they reached the territorial waters of Tiannan province that the fleets of other forces could appear.

Therefore, Yan nanfei felt like he was swimming in his own bathtub in this two thousand miles of sea.

Xue Pan looked at the boundless sea and said, ” uncle, since the Jin family was so powerful, why didn’t they occupy all the islands in the Eastern and Southern seas and move the Jin family overseas? ”

Yan nanfei replied,”firstly, it’s because he’s stupid, and secondly, it’s because he died early.”

Xue Pan said,”this time, we are going to exterminate the Jin family completely, exterminating the weeds and eliminating the roots. Does that include Jin Mulan?”

Yan nanfei said, ” I hope that includes her. The Empire’s will is to wipe out all those with special bloodlines.

To be precise, it was to wipe out all those with special bloodlines who were not from the six superpowers.

From now on, only the dynasty and the six Supreme forces could control the power of the ancient civilization.

“That’s a pity,” Xue Pan said.

His words revealed an incomparably filthy feeling.

jin mulan was too beautiful, especially after the nirvana transformation. her beauty stood at the top of the pyramid.

Xue Pan’s heart was also extremely drooling.

“The last person who coveted Jin Mulan was ning Yi,” Yan nanfei said.

“Uncle must be joking,” Xue Pan said.

Yan nanfei said, ” I’m not joking. The previous Jin Mulan was already beautiful enough. She was regarded as the exclusive property of Crown Prince Ning Yi. Now, ning Yi is finished. Now, Jin Mulan was even more beautiful. She was so beautiful that people could not open their eyes. That’s why you can’t touch it. If you do, many big shots will hate you, do you understand?”

“I know,” Xue Pan said.

Yan nanfei said, ” that’s why we should just destroy it. We’ll completely chop it up. That way, we won’t be harmed.

On the mast of the Xue family’s flagship, there was always a person watching, standing at the highest point to observe the enemy.

He was originally a little lazy.

This was because it was impossible for there to be any enemies within these two thousand li. This was completely considered the Xue clan’s internal sea.

The Jin family’s raging tide city was still two to three thousand miles away.

Moreover, the Jin family’s Navy was so weak that it made people cry. It had been a few years, but they couldn’t even destroy the Pirates ‘enmity howls.

A Land Army could be trained in a few years, while a sea fleet would take decades to become a strong Navy.

Everyone in the Xue family fleet knew that the key to this battle was to besiege raging tide city.

The battle on the sea had no suspense at all.

It was an instant kill.

How many ships did the Jin family’s fleet have? How many people were there?

It was not even a fraction of the Xue clan’s Allied army.

Moreover, their ships were very small, while the Xue clan’s warships were large and strong.

Not only that, the Xue family’s warships had catapults and giant crossbows.

The Jin family’s warship was so small that it couldn’t fit anything.

Thus, in front of the Xue family’s Alliance, the Jin family’s fleet was like a child that had just started walking, unable to withstand a single blow.

Perhaps it was because he had been strong for too long, the lookout warrior on the mast was not interested at all.

This was because there had not been a single powerful enemy for more than a decade.

At this moment.

Suddenly, a black dot seemed to appear on the surface of the sea far ahead.

The Xue family’s watchman couldn’t help but be startled.

Which merchant ship is this?

He didn’t pay too much attention to it. It was normal for merchant ships to appear in this area, and even the Xue clan’s patrol ships were normal.

However,

The next moment, dozens of black dots appeared.

This was not normal, definitely not normal.

First of all, it was impossible for the trading fleet to be so dense, and not in this formation.

However, he was too far away and couldn’t see clearly.

After another half an hour, he finally saw it clearly.

I’m scared, I’m scared!

This, this was a ghost?

What did I just see?

The Jin family’s fleet?

The gunner desperately rubbed his eyes and then patted his head.

Am I hallucinating?

He got closer.

He finally saw it clearly.

It really was the fleet of the Jin family.

Then, he quickly struck the gong.

“There’s an enemy, there’s an enemy,”

“Clang clang clang clang clang clang!”

“There’s an enemy.”

Then, all the flag bearers on the flagship waved their flags with all their might.

This was a warning to the entire fleet.

In fact, many people had seen it.

Yan nanfei and Xue Pan also saw it.

They could not believe their eyes.

Had the Jin family gone crazy?

Was Shen lang crazy?

We haven’t even gone to attack you yet, have we? You actually came to attack our Xue family?

How many ships do you have in your fleet?

Only a few people?

Your Nirvana Army might be invincible on the ground, but they are completely useless on the sea.

Aren’t you looking for death too quickly?

Soon, Yan nanfei saw it clearly and was even more in disbelief.

The Jin family’s fleet only had 40 ships, and the ships were not big, with no more than 4000 people.

These ships looked very flat and especially slender.

But other than that, it had no other merits. Your 4,000 people are taking the initiative to attack my 30000-man fleet?

However, since you, Shen lang, are willing to die, I am also willing to bury you.

Yan nanfei ordered.

“Prepare for battle, prepare for battle!”

“Fleet, form an encirclement formation!”

………………

Naval battles were extremely troublesome.

This was especially true for naval battles at this time, which required a long time to arrange the formation.

The two fleets were very close.

However, after more than two hours, the Naval battle officially began.

“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!”

“Boom! Boom! Boom!”

The Xue family’s fleet had displayed astonishing long-range combat power.

They had more than 200 ships of all sizes, with more than 30 large ships.

These large ships were equipped with giant crossbows and large trebuchets, which could launch attacks from more than 300 meters away.

This might was simply astonishing.

But,

This accuracy was truly touching.

The giant crossbow was still fine, as it had a certain degree of accuracy.

The trebuchets, on the other hand, could only hit the surface of the sea.

To be able to hit it once, it was definitely due to luck.

The Xue family fleet roared with shocking momentum.

But the result was almost zero.

It couldn’t be helped. Even in the era of artillery warships, it was unknown how long it would take to master the accuracy of the shots.

What about Shen Lang’s fleet?

There were no giant crossbows or trebuchets.

He could only rely on one thing.

Archers.

Was this a joke?

Was this a naval battle back on Earth in B.C.?

“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!”

On Shen Lang’s fleet, the Nirvana Army shot out arrows.

They were all rockets.

It drew a beautiful arc in the air.

“Pfft! Pfft! Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!”

The rain of arrows ruthlessly smashed into the Xue clan’s fleet.

Yan nanfei and the rest were shocked.

This was simply insane.

How far could the archers of the Jin family shoot?

This was almost the limit.

The two stone bows could be shot up to three hundred meters.

But accuracy?

He didn’t need to say it.

He was trying his luck.

Just like that, the battle between the two fleets lasted for an hour!

Shen Lang’s fleet actually had the upper hand.

This was because the Nirvana Army’s arrows could shoot too far. They were no weaker than the Xue clan’s large crossbows and trebuchets.

Moreover, the arrows shot by 3000 people would be more accurate than dozens of giant crossbows and trebuchets.

But the results?

He didn’t need to say it.

At this distance, even the arrows of the Nirvana Army would not have much power.

Even a rocket would find it difficult to set the Xue family’s ships on fire.

The intense battle lasted for an hour.

There were hundreds of casualties.

Furthermore, the distance between the two parties was always maintained within a certain range.

He had no choice.

Shen lang did not dare to take the risk.

The difference in strength between the two fleets was too great. Once the Xue family’s fleet got close, it would be dangerous.

Shen Lang’s ship was agile and fast.

However, they were relatively fragile. Once they were hit by a few catapults and giant crossbows, they would be seriously injured.

After an hour of intense battle.

Shen Lang’s fleet escaped.

The Xue family fleet pursued madly.

At this moment, Yan nanfei finally realized the special characteristics of the Shen lang fleet.

It was fast and very agile.

The speed of the entire fleet was twenty percent faster than the Xue family’s fleet.

The two fleets began a mad pursuit.

Originally, the Xue family’s fleet would definitely not be able to catch up to Shen Lang’s fleet.

However, Shen lang was too despicable. Every time they were too far away, his fleet would purposely slow down so that the Xue family’s fleet could catch up.

The whole process was like a beautiful woman teasing a hooligan.

come here, come here. As long as you catch up to me, I’ll let you XXX.

In the end, the Brawler chased like crazy, but he couldn’t catch up at all.

When you were about to give up, the beauty stopped again and flirtatiously said, ” “Come here. As long as you can catch up to me, I’ll let you sleep.”

………………

Two days and two nights had passed.

The Xue family’s fleet had been crazily chasing the entire time and had never fought a proper battle.

“Uncle, Shen lang is up to something. He is up to something,” Xue Pan said.

Yan nanfei sneered.

Of course, Shen lang had a plan.

Were they trying to lure the Xue family fleet to some terrifying hell?

It was laughable.

Who was most familiar with this Sea region?

It’s not you, Shen lang, but my Xue family.

Although you, Shen lang, are full of tricks, I, Yan nanfei, am the one who grew up on the ocean.

This area is my Xue clan’s internal sea, so I know it like the back of my hand.

………………

On the flagship of the Jin family.

Mulan stood at the bow of the ship and closed her eyes to sense the ocean.

She heard the whistling of the sea, the sea breeze, and the bottom of the sea.

“Baby, Are you sure?” Shen lang asked.

yes, ” Mulan said. the ocean is wailing and whimpering. It’s accumulating endless power. They are waiting for an instant explosion.”

“Is this explosion powerful enough?” Shen lang asked.

“No matter if it’s our fleet or the Xue family’s fleet, in front of the power of the ocean, they’re like children’s toys. They can easily turn into dust.”

After Mulan transformed, she had the perception of ancient humans.

The perception of nature.

The perception of the earth, the ocean, and the climate.

She could know when the wind would blow, when it would rain, and when it would Thunder.

She could even predict even more terrifying disasters in advance.

He had already demonstrated this ability a few months ago.

Therefore, Yan nanfei’s premonition was not wrong. Shen lang was about to bring the Xue family’s fleet to hell.

………………

[ note: 16000 for two chapters today! ] Once again, I’m exhausted. Everyone, please give me the monthly tickets. I’m begging for the pastries.
