I'm seventy years old this year, and you want me to have many children and much happiness?

On the Jinyuan River.

A large ship is sailing smoothly.

During the day, the respected Lord Liu was in a room inside the cabin, using an abacus and looking through the account books on the table.

"The Dark Rain branch needs 360 heads..."

"The Dark Moon branch needs 725 heads..."

"The Dark Gold Branch needs 460 heads..."

"And the 1,500 heads of the Dark Underworld Headquarters..."

"Things within this sect are getting increasingly difficult. Where am I supposed to find so many young people who haven't lost their virginity and possess a certain level of spiritual energy and potential?!"

"We can't just go to the other counties and cause several more major floods, can we?"

Liu Bao sighed as he did the accounting.

The requirements of this sect have been getting higher and higher lately, and the meager rewards given to him have made Liu Bao resentful.

But when they thought of the Blood Mother Cult's ruthless methods, they could only grit their teeth and obey.

I heard that the Huang family in Wuling County failed to handle the matter of the Blood Mother Cult properly.

Then the whole family was burned down.

Liu Bao still feels lingering fear about this incident.

Because he had watched Huang Tianba of Wuling County gradually build his fortune.

Liu Bao had done some things with Huang Tianba in the past, so they were acquainted in the early days of the sect.

As a result, Huang Tianba's side was dealt with quietly.

This made Liu Bao wary.

I worked hard to get to where I am now and I can finally enjoy this good life.

Of course, I'm unwilling to give up so easily.

Moreover, once you're on this ship, you can no longer make your own decisions.

"Fortunately, the requirements for teaching aren't too high now, and we only need to come for a job every two or three months."

"If this happens every month, I really can't stand it."

Liu Bao sighed. According to the original plan, the number of children in Hong'an County was still somewhat lacking.

However, we can send what we have to the Dark Rain Branch first.

Then, if we go along the way, we can just kidnap a few people. If we keep chasing them, completing the mission shouldn't be too difficult.

During this period, I can only suffer a bit myself.

"Hey OP, it looks like there's a small boat following us?"

Liu Baogang went up to the deck to get some fresh air.

Then a subordinate rushed over to report.

Liu Bao looked towards the dark river and then saw a small fishing boat following behind his large ship.

The lights on the small fishing boats were flickering, so what kind of threat could such small fishing boats pose?

"You even need to report this kind of trivial matter?"

"At most, he's just a fisherman."

"This river is so wide, does it all belong to you?"

Liu Bao glanced at it and then ignored it.

After all, Liu Bao was a master with the cultivation level of the third rank.

If any enemy or threat were to approach, it would definitely be able to sense it immediately.

In fact, his talent was similar to that of Huang Tianba back then.

However, because Liu Bao was more clever, he quickly and skillfully climbed the ranks within the Blood Mother Sect, earning commendations from above. His cultivation level improved steadily, and he even started businesses like the Lotus Pavilion, gaining a very good reputation in the martial arts world.

For Liu Bao, this was simply an extremely comfortable path to success.

However, it is important to be careful.

Liu Bao didn't pay any attention to the fishing boats behind him.

How much wind and waves can such a dilapidated little fishing boat stir up?

On the contrary, it should be careful not to be overturned by the wind and waves on the river.

Soon, around midnight, the Lotus Tower's relief ship arrived at the dock in Hong'an County.

At the dock in Hong'an County, a team of soldiers was already waiting to meet them.

Lu Xuan moored the small boat on the river, without approaching the dock.

At this moment, he also released his mental energy, and thoroughly investigated the situation on the dock.

"These officers and soldiers are in cahoots with Lotus Tower."

"They have already prepared the child."

"While unloading supplies, they also brought the children onto the ship."

"Once the children are all on the boat, go and kill all these soldiers first."

Lu Xuan said to Liu Qingxue.

Liu Qingxue nodded.

She had changed into night clothes and looked petite.

He touched the black and gold scimitar in his arms.

It took about half an hour.

Liu Bao and the team of officers and soldiers from Hong'an County have completed their exchange.

"Hehe, thank you very much for your great help, Mr. Liu. With this batch of supplies, Hong'an County will definitely be able to overcome this crisis."

He was the leading commander among the officers and soldiers, and also the commander of the garrison in Hong'an County.

His name is Luo Kun.

Luo Kun then clasped his hands in a fist salute to Liu Bao.

Seeing this, Liu Bao also cupped his hands and said the same.

"In addition to supplies, our Lotus Pavilion has also raised 10,000 taels of silver in donations this time. Please be sure to accept it, Commander Luo."

Ten thousand taels!

When Luo Kun heard the number, his eyes lit up immediately.

I never imagined that just capturing some refugee children would be so valuable.

The lives and deaths of these children have nothing to do with him, but this pile of silver is related to his wonderful life.

"Of course...of course, I will definitely use this donation effectively!"

Luo Kun quickly stepped forward and took the ten thousand taels of silver note.

Seeing Luo Kun's humble appearance, Liu Bao chuckled, a sense of superiority welling up inside him.

These lowly ants.

However, a mere ten thousand taels of silver is enough to make you risk your life.

They really haven't seen the world.

However, it is thanks to these people, who are greedy enough and greedy enough, that my affairs can be carried out better.

"Then we'll take our leave; we have other places to visit."

Liu Bao didn't say much to a nobody like Luo Kun.

He then signaled the relief ship to set sail.

Luo Kun and the others watched Liu Bao's ship leave from the dock.

"Hehe, boss, I didn't expect to make this money so easily."

"Following the boss, there's bound to be a bright future!"

"These lowly people are actually worth so much money; it's their good fortune."

Luo Kun's men swarmed around him.

"Keep your voices down!"

"Don't say I've treated you unfairly. As agreed before, it's four hundred taels each. Considering how hard you've worked, I'll give each of you an extra fifty taels!"

Luo Kun gathered everyone together and began distributing the money right there at the dock.

Although each person only received 450 taels, such a sum of money was enough for their salary for several years.

Even if it meant losing their lives, the group didn't hesitate at all. As long as everyone kept it a secret, no one would ever know about it.

"Keep everything that happened tonight a secret, or don't blame me for being ruthless."

Luo Kun said with a cold look in his eyes.

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Suddenly, Luo Kun glanced at the river and saw a cold glint seemingly flashing across the water.

The figure quickly approached in the next moment.

Luo Kun felt a chill run down his spine.

I instinctively took a step back.

puff!

The figure standing in front of Luo Kun was instantly cleaved in two by the sharp blade light.

Whoosh!

The cut was swift and decisive, without the slightest hesitation.

A woman dressed in black appeared before the crowd.

"There's...there's an assassin!"
