Chapter 303: Post-war mesuares
While the situation on Blood City and Blood Island had quieted, peace was far from over. The Blood Duke, Bloodless #1, and nine of the Blood Sea’s strongest and oldest powerhouses were in the Blood Pagoda’s highest level.
Those people’s loyalty was unquestionable, and their voices and eyes could reach every corner of the Blood Sea. However, there was one more person among the group that the Blood Duke called into the meeting.
Cain might be young, and his time in the Blood Sea was short, but no one in the room felt there was a problem with his presence.
Not only had Cain’s attack pushed the High Blood Elder into the sky and away from innocent people, but he also took control of the Blood Pagoda just at the right time, avoiding thousands of unnecessary deaths.
Regarding his loyalty, even a complete idiot could see that he was not part of the Blood King’s scheme since there was nothing that man wanted more than to kill Cain.
He was also a very important figure for the Collapsing Lightning Duke and the Imperial Lightning Fort since the mighty First Pillar acted as Cain’s bodyguard.
It was true that his current battle power was not much compared with the rest of the people in the room, but no one dared to look down on him for that. Cain’s talent was so immense that it would only be a couple of decades before he caught up to them or even surpassed them.
"It will be a very long time before we find out the true intentions of the Blood King and exactly when he managed to infiltrate the Blood Sea. If we go by his words, he had planned for one hundred years already, so there is no doubt he is not over with us.
Right now, we must decide what our approach will be for the powerhouses of the Purist Path. Does anyone have a good idea they would like to share with the group?"
Silence reigned as the Blood Duke spoke those words. Everybody understood the dangers of keeping snakes in their ranks, but the decision was not so easy to make.
"We are not in a position where we can allow weakness. The Blood Sea must act as a single unified force if we want to handle the looming threat."
Bloodless #1 was the first to speak, and his voice was eerily cold. There was a merciless light in his eyes, and everybody could understand his plan.
