Lin Caogen laughed and said, "Patriarch Bai, the traditional practice of the sea tribe was to burn young girls as sacrifices to the gods! I thought this was incredibly foolish! Every year on the 10th of January, a lightning tribulation descends upon the sea! Could it be that there is a flaw in the formation?"
Bai Dicheng pondered, "It's possible that this is true for me! My cultivation has now reached the peak of the Core Formation stage, just one step away from the Nascent Soul stage! At my level, I naturally don't want to believe in the idea of a heavenly tribulation descending from the gods! However, the millions of people from the other nine major families of the Sea Clan have already deeply ingrained beliefs about gods and spirits. I regretted sending Su Su to the incineration platform back then!"
Upon hearing this, everyone sighed deeply.
For centuries, a girl born on January 10th has been burned to death every year, resulting in the deaths of over a thousand girls! Behind this tragedy are more than 1,000 broken families! It is truly heartbreaking!
Lin Caogen also sighed and said, "The people here are uneducated and the environment is closed! News is hard to spread, so feudal ideas are deeply rooted! What we need to do is reform! We need a revolution! We need to overthrow the old ideas and establish a new system! In my opinion, it would be better to unify the sea tribes, with the Bai family as the main body, and establish the Bai Kingdom! What does the Bai family leader think?"
Bai Dicheng hurriedly said, "No, no! Although I, Bai Dicheng, am at the peak of the 9th level of the Core Formation stage, even a hero can't fight a pack of dogs with two fists! How can I fight against the 9 major families by myself?"
Lin Caogen said, "Now that the Jungle Tribes have been unified and the Wu Kingdom has been established, everything is in need of rebuilding! I have drawn about 500,000 surrendered generals from various tribes from the Wu Kingdom. These 500,000 surrendered generals are veterans of many battles and can lend a helping hand to Patriarch Bai!"
Lin Caogen's plan was to wear down the strength of the surrendered generals of the jungle tribes, while also consolidating the foundation of the Wu Kingdom. Under the tempering of war, these surrendered generals of the jungle tribes could gradually forget their hatred and find a sense of belonging!
Bai Dicheng exclaimed in shock, “What virtue or ability do I, Bai Dicheng, possess? How dare I trouble the Divine Archer Strategist for my help! This, this! This doesn’t make sense!”
Lin Caogen smiled calmly and said, "Patriarch Bai, please don't worry! It's all just fate! Since I met Susu, we've spent a year together and our feelings for each other have deepened. I'd like to find an opportunity to propose to Patriarch Bai!"
Bai Dicheng exclaimed joyfully, "Susu! Is this true?!"
Bai Su blushed and nodded, saying, "Dad! Mom! I gave my first kiss to Brother Lin!"
Upon hearing this, everyone burst into laughter!
Mu Wanqing listened from the side, speechless!
Bai Dicheng then realized why Lin Caogen had helped him deal with the other nine major families; it turned out that Su Su had played a crucial bridging role in the middle!
Bai Dicheng said happily, "The Divine Archer Strategist's fame has spread far and wide, and now he and my daughter are in love. I have no objection to this marriage! I had some unpleasantness with Brother Wu Santong back then! Now that Brother Lin has married Wu Santong's daughter Meiniang and is going to marry my Susu, Brother Lin can be considered a bridge between my Bai family and the Wu clan!"
Lin Caogen hurriedly said, "Since my father-in-law has agreed, let's unite as one and put the unification of the sea tribes on the agenda!"
Bai Dicheng laughed and said, "Good! It is a blessing from our ancestors and a good deed from our past life that my Bai family has such a worthy son-in-law!"
Mu Wanqing was speechless upon hearing these flattering words!
Lin Caogen said, "Father-in-law! Last year, I tricked and killed Emperor Renzong of the Song family at sea! Now the Song family is leaderless!"
Bai Dicheng said, "Last year, you caused a commotion at the bottom of the sea, and the Song family lost four Core Formation stage experts. Especially with the death of Emperor Renzong of Song, they are indeed no longer able to dominate the sea race! However, the remaining major families should not be underestimated. In particular, Wang Bodang, the head of the Wang family, is also a master archer! And Zhang Zui, the head of the Zhang family, his strength is extremely hidden, so we must be wary of him!"
Lin Caogen said, "I have two points to make! First, in the sea area, the ten major families have monopolized the resources, making it difficult for the children of ordinary fishermen to achieve much! In my opinion, the Bai family head should release some resources to recruit talented children from ordinary fishermen's families into the Bai family! After all, the Bai family will establish a country in the future, so this is only right! Second, we should eliminate the remaining nine major families one by one! The Song family is declining, so I will first lead the elite of the martial clan to launch a surprise attack on the Song family. After wiping out the entire Song family, I will issue a proclamation to attack the remaining eight major families!"
Bai Dicheng said, "Good! My son-in-law is absolutely right! I will release some resources to attract talented young refugees from the sea and nurture them carefully! For so many years, the ten major families have monopolized resources, not giving other people a chance. It is indeed time for reform!"
Ten days later, Murong Yanran and Wu Changyu, two experts at the Core Formation stage, led three thousand elite troops in disguise and ambushed near Song Family Village!
Lin Caogen, along with Mu Wanqing and Fang Xiaoru, came to the front lines to oversee the battle.
Murong Yanran's scars faded, and her appearance returned to normal. Now she has once again become that heroic and valiant saintess with a long sword in her hand.
"Master! Song Family Village is easy to defend and difficult to attack, with hundreds of thousands of soldiers inside! We are currently lying in ambush near the Song family patriarch. How should we launch a night attack tonight? Please give us your orders!"
Murong Yanran is now completely obedient to Lin Caogen. She has already heard about how Lin Caogen killed the Song family patriarch a year ago, and she admires him greatly. She no longer has any thoughts of resisting him! Lin Caogen comes from the Immortal Continent, and following him might allow her to go even further. Murong Yanran is now completely submissive!
Looking at the terrain of Song Family Village, Lin Caogen laughed and said, "At three in the morning, prepare to attack! Core Formation stage experts will fly directly to Song Family Village and quickly kill the gate guards! Three thousand elite troops will rush into the village, running along the rooftops to avoid traps! Once they reach the center of the village, they will storm the Song family residence. Tonight, give the three thousand elite troops some coffee to refresh them!"
Of the three thousand elite troops Lin Caogen brought this time, two thousand were surrendered generals, and the other one thousand were from the Wu Clan. All three thousand were at the Qi Condensation stage. Although their numbers were only about one percent of the Song Family Village's military strength, they should not be underestimated! This is because the entire Song Family Village had fewer than 3,000 Qi Condensation stage soldiers.
