"Where's the Nonagon Bulwark?" asked Tan Xiu coldly.
"I don't know the specific location, but I know how to get there," said the belle. "It's the biggest port in Saipan, and there's a passenger ship there."
After getting the information about the passenger ship from the belle, Tan Xiu nodded to Chi Nan at the side, signaling her to release the other two men from Sacred Flame. Then, he looked at the belle and asked, "You should know about the situation in Nonagon Bulwark, right?"
The belle felt relieved after seeing that her two companions had been released. She was really afraid that Tan Xiu would turn hostile and kill all three of them after getting the answer he wanted. Therefore, she didn't want to be in a gloomy mood and explained, "Nonagon Bulwark is located in the Pacific Ocean. It has a total of nine islands with nine villages on it. It's called the Nonagon Bulwark because the nine islands are very close to each other. "
"Who are the people living in the Nonagon Bulwark?" asked Tan Xiu again.
"Pirates," answered the belle.
"Pirates?"
Tan Xiu furrowed his brows. He didn't expect that the answer would be this, so he asked again, "Your Sacred Flame's people actually accepted the pirates' commission? That's really interesting."
"Our Sacred Flame's motto is that we'll work for whoever pays us, regardless of the identity of the employer," said the belle.
"How many people does your Sacred Flame have?" asked Tan Xiu. "What about their strength?"
The belle looked a bit proud as she said, "Our Sacred Flame's strength is beyond the imagination of countless people. We have a total of nine Sacred Flame Orders, and the first one is the simplest mission. When the strongest nine Sacred Flame Orders are issued, all the members of the Sacred Flame Organization will appear to complete the mission together. "
A strange expression appeared on Tan Xiu's face as he asked, "I need to know the price."
"The Nonagon Bulwark paid 100 million USD this time, which corresponds to the five Sacred Flame Orders of our Sacred Flame Organization," said the belle. The lowest price for a Sacred Fire Insignia is only 100,000 USD … The highest price for nine Sacred Fire Insignia is 10 billion USD. "
Tan Xiu was secretly shocked. He didn't expect that the Sacred Flame Organization, which he had just heard of, would cost 10 billion dollars to obtain the highest level of the Sacred Flame Order.
Were they … worth that much money?
The gorgeous woman looked at the contemplative Tan Xiu and suddenly said, "Sir, I can tell you some more things. Ever since the establishment of our Sacred Flame Organization, we've activated nine Sacred Flame Orders twice. The first time was during the Crusades. Back then, our Sacred Flame Organization played a huge role. Otherwise, the entire army of cultivators on the crusade would have been annihilated. The second time was thirty-six years ago. At that time, the Black Flag Camp, which was in the limelight at its peak, was uprooted by us. In total, we eliminated fourteen thousand six hundred people from the Black Flag Camp. "
The Crusades.
Black Flag Camp.
Tan Xiu knew about these two major events, but he hadn't expected the Sacred Flame Organization to be involved in both of them. Especially the second incident, which was actually done by the Sacred Flame Organization.
Suddenly …
A wonderful idea arose in his mind. He looked at the gorgeous woman and asked, "What's your status in the Sacred Flame Organization?"
"I'm the Vice Captain of the Saipan squad, Karin," answered the woman.
"I need your Sacred Flame's Boss. If he can come to Saipan personally, I'm willing to pay 10 billion dollars to activate the Sacred Flame Organization's third Sacred Flame Order," said Tan Xiu in a deep voice. "I'll give him seven days. I'll return to Saipan seven days later."
An excited look appeared on the gorgeous woman's face as she hurriedly asked, "Do you really want to activate the Sacred Flame Order?"
"Of course."
"I can pay you one billion dollars in advance," said Tan Xiu lightly.
The gorgeous woman broke free from the Tang Sect's disciple's hand, got up, and excitedly said, "I'll immediately contact our Sacred Flame Organization's Vulcan once the one billion dollars deposit is in my account. He's our Boss. Our Sacred Flame Organization can do anything as long as we have money. We even dare to provoke the people from the three major organizations. "
Tan Xiu gave it a thought and suddenly asked, "How many people from your Sacred Flame Organization are in Saipan? Or should I say, how many people from your organization can rush to Saipan in half a day? "
"More than 200," answered the gorgeous woman. "And all of them are experts."
"I'll give you an additional five billion dollars. I'll give you half a day to follow me to the Nonagon Bulwark to rescue my disciple, Chen Zhizhong, and kill all the pirates there," said Tan Xiu.
The gorgeous woman looked ecstatic and excitedly rubbed her hands. "No problem. No problem at all. Everything is fine as long as we have money. You'll have to pay us five billion dollars in advance. We can set off immediately once the money is in our account. "
Tan Xiu turned to look at Chi Nan and said in a deep voice, "Contact Xiaoxue immediately and tell her to transfer five billion dollars to the other party's account."
"But Boss, this …" Chi Nan hesitated.
"Execute it," said Tan Xiu.
"Understood!"
Chi Nan nodded helplessly. She asked for the Sacred Flame Organization's account and immediately left.
Clearwater Translator.
In the courtyard, dozens of Tang Sect experts were sitting cross-legged like stone statues. Tan Xiu was also sitting cross-legged on a stone platform, calmly watching the figures that flashed lightning-fast appeared. There were black, white, and yellow people among them.
"Who are they, Karen?"
A burly black man with a stocky build appeared with dozens of experts. With a vigilant look on his face, he asked in a deep voice.
"They're the employers, Sir Tu," answered Karen hurriedly.
"HQ has received five billion dollars for two missions," said the black man in a deep voice. "The first mission is to go to the Nonagon Bulwark and rescue Chen Zhizhong, whom we've captured. What's the second mission? "
"I don't know about the second mission yet." Karen shook her head and said, "But the other party has given us a deposit and wants us to open the nine Sacred Flame Tokens. Sir Tu, you're well aware that we must go all out as long as we open the nine Sacred Flame Tokens no matter what their request is. "
The black man's expression changed and he observed the Tang Sect disciples sitting cross-legged in the courtyard again. His eyes then fell on Tan Xiu and he cupped his fists, saying, "Are you the employer, Sir?"
Tan Xiu floated up and instantly appeared in front of the black man. He then nodded and said, "That's right. I am. When will the members of your Sacred Flame Organization arrive? You must know that Chen Zhizhong will be in more danger for every minute we waste here. "
"Half an hour. We'll set off in half an hour at most," said the black man with a bit of respect in his eyes. He knew that the employer who could come up with 10 billion dollars to issue the nine Sacred Flame Tokens must have a very terrifying status.
Tan Xiu thought for a while and asked, "Answer me a question. How did you know where Chen Zhizhong is and how did you go there to capture him?"
"It was a drop of blood," said the black man. "That drop of blood led us to that deserted island in the Pacific Ocean and we found Chen Zhizhong there. We didn't believe it at first, but after we arrived there, we finally believed it. "
"Where did that drop of blood come from?" asked Tan Xiu with a frown.
"It was given by the employer, the Nonagon Bulwark's First Master," answered the black man.
Tan Xiu nodded without a word. He knew that Chen Zhizhong had been cast with a forbidden spell before. Not only was his memory obscured, but even his cultivation level had dropped, leaving him with only 1% of his former strength. At first, he thought that it was the bastard he killed. But now, it seemed that there was more to it than meets the eye!
Half an hour later.
More than 200 experts of the Sacred Flame Organization had arrived. Tan Xiu secretly observed them and found that their overall strength was not strong. The strongest among them was probably only comparable to a Golden Core Stage expert. Most of them were only comparable to Foundation Establishment Stage experts, and a few of them were only comparable to Qi Refining Stage cultivators.
At the port.
A luxurious passenger ship was anchored on the shore, and a group of strong men was transporting goods to the ship. Many of them were dressed as tourists and were slowly boarding the ship.
"Control them!"
Under Tan Xiu's order, the experts of the Sacred Flame Organization and the Tang Sect rushed toward the luxurious passenger ship. Around the luxurious passenger ship, numerous lightning-fast silhouettes emerged from the water and soundlessly boarded the ship, disappearing into the cabin.
It was chaos.
Half an hour later, all the tourists who boarded the ship were gathered on the deck. Most of the Nonagon Bulwark pirates on the ship were killed, while the rest were tied up and thrown into a hall inside the ship.
"These tourists are actually traveling on a pirate ship?"
Tan Xiu looked at the hundreds of tourists with a strange expression. He couldn't help but ask after seeing their shivering and fearful faces.
"I just inquired about it. It's a local tour company in Saipan. I suspect that the tour company is in cahoots with the pirates of the Nonagon Bulwark," said Chi Nan.
Tan Xiu couldn't help laughing and said, "I'm starting to admire this pirate leader of the Nonagon Bulwark now. To think that he can openly kidnap tourists under disguise. I'm afraid that the fate awaiting these tourists will be very miserable once they are brought to the Nonagon Bulwark. "
"That's a very powerful means," said Chi Nan.
"Yeah, it's very powerful." Tan Xiu nodded.
Quickly.
The captain of the passenger ship was brought to Tan Xiu. After he was forced to kneel, he glared at Tan Xiu with murderous eyes and shouted, "You dare to offend us, Nonagon Bulwark people? Your death has come! Our Nonagon Bulwark may be a pirate lair, but our strength is beyond your imagination. "
"Those people from the Nonagon Bulwark are indeed very powerful, Boss," said Chi Nan. "More than a dozen of them are cultivators. They may not be very powerful, but they are all peripheral members. Their real core members rarely leave the Nonagon Bulwark. "
Tang Xiu sneered, "Only powerful people are worth my money, else I'll just be a sucker."
