Chapter 1464 - 1444: Flying to Wuji Island

Yang Xiao laughed:

"The fifth overlord of Central Continent? I can't take this title. Moreover, we are all part of the Dark Web now, Mr. Master is our leader, how can I stand alongside the boss? From now on, don't mention this title."

Flying Tiger laughed:

"Boss, don't be modest. It's an honor for the Dark Web to have two people called overlords of Central Continent. Mr. Master might be quite pleased."

Yang Xiao smiled faintly and turned to ask Black Wood:

"Black Wood, what about the thing I asked you to handle last time, about going to Wuji Island for cultivation?"

Black Wood said:

"Boss, I sent someone to Wuji Academy last time and met with the vice principal. They agreed to let you go to Wuji Academy for cultivation.

You've been busy with arranging work lately, and I've been so dizzy with busyness that I forgot about it until you mentioned it.

Do you know when you plan to go?"

Black Wood didn't really forget. Everyone now sees Yang Xiao as the core figure and depends on him, so Black Wood naturally doesn't want Yang Xiao to leave at this time.

Elder Qi and others were surprised and looked at Yang Xiao,

"Lord Yang, you want to leave Central Continent to cultivate at Wuji Island?"

Yang Xiao glanced at everyone and said:

"I've been on Central Continent for more than a year. The success we have today is all thanks to everyone's unity and cooperation. But with my current Genetic Evolution Realm, this achievement has reached its peak.

If it weren't for Mr. Master of the Dark Web, we might not have even overcome Ba Tianhu.

In this world, ultimately, all competition and rivalry are based on the height of your Genetic Evolution Realm. If I don't enhance my Genetic Evolution Level, how can I lead you to overcome more difficulties and dangers in the future?"

Everyone was silent after hearing this.

Yang Xiao was very realistic.

Yang Xiao wants to lead everyone to establish a foothold in Central Continent and live stably and for a long time, he must upgrade his Genetic Evolution Realm to a level that can compete with the three demon city lords of Central Continent.

Seeing everyone's worried expressions, Yang Xiao smiled and said:

"Don't worry. When I'm at Wuji Academy for cultivation, I will always pay attention to the situation on Central Continent. Moreover, we now rely on the Dark Web, plus the assistance of tens of thousands of demon beasts, even Ba Tianhu won't dare to provoke us easily. As long as we don't start trouble ourselves, our safety is assured."

Elder Qi nodded and said:

"What Lord Yang said is correct. Lord Yang is still young and should seek breakthroughs in higher levels of Genetic Evolution. This is crucial for the future of the City of Hope.

Ultimately, whether the City of Hope can develop and grow, whether we can truly secure a place in Central Continent and live stably for a long time, all depend on Lord Yang's future Genetic Evolution Level.

If Lord Yang can break through to Emperor Level Middle Stage Realm, he will become a powerhouse capable of competing with figures like Ba Tianhu in Central Continent.

This is where future long-term interests lie, and we should all support Lord Yang."

Black Wood and others nodded in agreement.

Yang Xiao added:

"While I'm not on Central Continent, Elder Qi, Black Wood, Suonan, Flying Tiger, and Ma Kui will form a leadership group. Make sure to handle things collaboratively and never act impulsively or betray everyone.

If anyone betrays while I'm away, I will come back immediately to hunt them down and eliminate them without mercy!"

Everyone immediately said in unison:

"We dare not!"

Yang Xiao continued:

"I've already drafted a development plan for the next three years. Follow the plan to develop commercial, agricultural, industrial, and urban construction sectors. While I'm cultivating at Wuji Academy, I will return periodically to check on your work.

Additionally, Fan Chen and Wanyan Bai will assemble an intelligence network, to report updates every three or six days, so I can keep track of happenings here."

Fan Chen and Wanyan Bai rose and bowed immediately:

"Yes, boss, we will arrange it well."

...

In the next month, besides arranging major strategic policies for the City of Hope's future development, Yang Xiao focused on assembling Elder Qi and others into a five-person leadership group, establishing Elder Qi as the leader and Black Wood as deputy leader.

He organized an intelligence network with Fan Chen and Wanyan Bai as group leader and deputy leader.

Yang Xiao brought over 20 warships from the interstellar transport fleet. These small warships are all extremely fast.

Yang Xiao had Fan Chen incorporate ten warships into the intelligence network to gather intelligence on Central Continent and transmit it to Wuji Academy every few days.

With everything ready, Yang Xiao decided to visit Mr. Master of the Dark Web.

He arrived at the Dark Web Headquarters Valley and found Second Master.

"Lord Yang, you've arrived."

Second Master was still accustomed to calling Yang Xiao Lord Yang, not referring to him as Mr. Eight.

"Second Master, I'd like to meet Mr. Master. Do you know whether Mr. Master is around?"

"Oh, very unfortunate. Mr. Master hasn't returned to Headquarters Valley since leaving the City of Hope."

"Oh? Do you know where Mr. Master went? Can you contact him?"

Second Master said with some difficulty:

"Mr. Master is elusive and unpredictable, beyond reach for us subordinates. Why, do you have business with Mr. Master?"

Yang Xiao briefly explained his plan to cultivate at Wuji Academy.

Second Master smiled and said:

"I'm somewhat aware of your situation. You're going to Wuji Island for cultivation, it's a good thing. I believe Mr. Master knows and is very happy for you."

"While I'm not on Central Continent, please take care of my brothers in the City of Hope, Second Master."

"Haha, Lord Yang, there's no need to worry. We're all brothers of the Dark Web now, Mr. Master specifically instructed us that we are a family and naturally look after each other. You may go with ease."

Yang Xiao stayed one night at the Dark Web Headquarters Valley. As Mr. Eight of the Dark Web, he had a dedicated house here.

Early the next morning, Yang Xiao left the Headquarters and returned to the City of Hope.

Yang Xiao, accompanied by Black Wood, Fan Chen, and Wanyan Bai, boarded a small warship with an escort of five more small warships, heading towards Wuji Academy tens of thousands of kilometers away.

The warship flew out of Central Continent, heading east over the vast ocean.

After flying about twenty thousand kilometers, a huge island appeared ahead.

Black Wood, looking out the window of the warship, saw the island in the sea and excitedly said:

"Lord Yang, the island far away is Wuji Island. I haven't been there for ten years and I really miss it."
