All of us are one

Chapter 100 They've Lost All Shame

The next morning.

The port of Bihai City is extremely busy in the early morning due to the countless merchant ships coming and going. The merchant ships that arrived last night are all loading and unloading their cargo at this time.

Even so, several docks in the port were still blocked by armed men, prohibiting unauthorized personnel from approaching.

Inside an inn a mile or two from the port, two men, each holding a monocular telescope, stood in front of a disguised window, observing the situation at the docks from afar.

One of them spoke up and asked, "The three major families have prepared five ships. Is this a smokescreen, or are they planning to send all five ships out?"

"The five ships were loaded with supplies yesterday, and it doesn't seem like a smokescreen. I'm afraid all five ships will be sent to escort the target," another person replied.

"The carriage is here!" The first person to speak had made a new discovery.

Through their binoculars, the two saw a convoy of carriages bearing the banners of the three major families proceed unimpeded to the blockaded dock.

Then they saw many people get off the carriages and carry wooden boxes onto the five boats.

After all the wooden crates were loaded onto the ship, most of the people who had been talking on the dock bowed goodbye and boarded the ship, while a few stood there watching them go.

The two were taken aback by this scene.

"What's going on? Why are the top experts from the three major families boarding the ship?"

"Send three top experts to escort the target? The Great River Alliance only sent two top experts to meet the target."

"The three major families have completely abandoned all shame in their efforts to curry favor with Duan Shuijian."

As the ship sailed away from the dock, the two men put down their monoculars and whispered to each other, puzzled by the actions of the three families.

The three major families are quite powerful, with overall strength no less than that of the Great River Alliance. They also have invincible beings who surpass ordinary top-tier experts. Logically speaking, they don't need to flatter their targets, but the three major families did just that.

"The target is being escorted by three top-notch experts, making it impossible to intercept them at sea on their way to Twin Islands."

"In any case, report it to the leader first, and let the leader make the decision."

"This is the only way. Let's see what the leader says."

The two were quite helpless. They had gathered a lot of experts to carry out the interception plan, including themselves, and there were six experts at the fourth level of the Qi Condensation Realm, but they were powerless to intercept the target fleet.

Three top experts and at least seven first-rate experts at the fourth level of the Qi Condensation Realm are not people they can afford to provoke; going there would be suicide!

So the two restored the disguised window to its original state, cleaned up the traces, and left the inn, preparing to return and report to the leader.

……

On a ship at sea.

Jiang Yanming stood on the deck and observed his surroundings, seeing many ships heading towards the port of Bihai City.

"Young Master Jiang." Suddenly, three people came to Jiang Yanming's side.

"Thank you for seeing me off, three seniors," Jiang Yanming replied with a cupped-hand salute.

"Young Alliance Leader, you're too kind," Liang Qingheng said with a smile. "Our trip to Twin Islands is not only to escort you, but also to discuss business with the Four Nations Alliance."

"Talking business?" Jiang Yanming asked, puzzled.

If there's anything the Four Nations Alliance lacks that the Divine Martial Kingdom doesn't have, it must be technological creations and genetically optimized plants and animals.

The problem is that most technological creations cannot be used in Shenwu Kingdom. Therefore, what Shenwu Kingdom needs are genetically optimized plants and animals, as well as some technologies that can help agricultural production.

"This is no secret," said Zhen Huanyi, a top expert of the Zhen family. "Our three families have been doing business with the four-nation alliance for a long time. The high-yield grain crops of Shenwu Kingdom today were all introduced by our three families."

"In addition, we have also introduced many technologies to help the people of Shenwu Kingdom produce food crops," Liang Qingheng said solemnly. "Shenwu Kingdom also has things that the Four Kingdoms Alliance needs, such as metals that the Four Kingdoms Alliance does not have, or the sinews, bones and flesh of strange beasts. These are things that the Four Kingdoms Alliance has purchased at high prices."

"Generally speaking, we will not easily sell materials of exotic beasts to the Four Nations Alliance. Those are important bargaining chips for us to negotiate with the Four Nations Alliance."

"That's right, the materials from exotic beasts are very important, and we can't let the Four Kingdoms Alliance obtain them easily." Wang Fuxian, the top expert of the Wang family, nodded.

"If that's the case, then what do you sell to the four allied nations on a regular basis?" Jiang Yanming asked curiously.

"We usually do business with the Four Nations Alliance, mainly selling silk, porcelain, jade ornaments, incense, ink sticks and other items," Wang Fuxian said with a smile. "According to the Four Nations Alliance, these are considered luxury goods. The quantity is not large, but the price is not cheap."

"Understood." Jiang Yanming nodded slightly.

He didn't know much about luxury goods, so he didn't know that some luxury goods were produced in Shenwu Kingdom.

"We made a big show of our trip to Twin Islands without hiding anything, so the forces that previously attempted to assassinate the Young Alliance Leader should have received the news." Liang Qingheng changed the subject. "I think that if they don't give up on assassinating the Young Alliance Leader, they will choose to make their move after leaving Twin Islands."

Jiang Yanming nodded upon hearing this, agreeing with the guess.

Previously, Xueyu had attempted to assassinate him on the Yangtze River, deploying three top experts and more than ten experts at the fourth level of the Qi Condensation Realm. It must have taken a considerable amount of time to gather these experts.

Because Blood Rain operates in the shadows, it is not easy for it to recruit members and cultivate experts, unlike the many forces in the Divine Martial Kingdom which operate in the open, have their own territories, and can recruit disciples and cultivate outstanding talents.

Without prior knowledge of the situation and the ability to mobilize top experts, Blood Rain would find it difficult to carry out an assassination under the protection of three top experts, unless Blood Rain could send an exceptional expert to carry out the assassination.

Liang Qingheng asked, "I wonder if Alliance Leader Jiang has made arrangements to send someone to bring the young Alliance Leader back to the Four Kingdoms Alliance?"

"I don't know yet, I don't have a messenger with me." Jiang Yanming shook his head slightly.

However, he guessed that if his father knew he was going back to the Four Nations Alliance, he would probably invite Uncle Li, Uncle Chen and others to come.

As for the strength of Uncle Li and the others, Jiang Yanming believed that they were not weak. They were at least top-notch experts at the fourth level of the Condensing Qi realm. For example, Uncle Chen had followed him without anyone noticing and finished off a level 5 cyborg for him.

"If Alliance Leader Jiang has no arrangements, Young Alliance Leader can send someone to inform me," Liang Qingheng said with a smile. "I can escort Young Alliance Leader back to the Four Kingdoms Alliance, and then visit Alliance Leader Jiang on behalf of my ancestor."

Upon hearing this, Zhen Huanyi and Wang Fuxian looked at Liang Qingheng with surprise, as these words had not been discussed with them beforehand.

"Thank you, senior." Jiang Yanming bowed and expressed his gratitude.

He neither declined nor agreed; he needed to know the follow-up arrangements after arriving at Twin Islands before making a decision.

As someone who values ​​his life, he wouldn't easily put himself in danger. After all, the high-level martial artists of the Divine Martial Kingdom are very strong, unlike the vampires who are not difficult to threaten him.

"Young Alliance Leader, the fleet still needs to be arranged," Wang Fuxian said, cupping his hands in greeting. "We are on the deck. If the Young Alliance Leader needs anything, please send someone to inform us."

"Please make yourself at home, seniors," Jiang Yanming returned the greeting with a cupped hand.

So Wang Fuxian and Zhen Huanyi pulled Liang Qingheng away.

This scene aroused suspicion among Leng Tong and Wang Chen, who were standing behind, wondering what these three top experts were up to.

"Could it be that the young leader displeased Senior Liang because of the meeting?"
