While the situation on Blood City and Blood Island had quieted, peace was far from over. The Blood Duke, Bloodless #1, and nine of the Blood Sea's strongest and oldest powerhouses were in the Blood Pagoda's highest level. Those people's loyalty was unquestionable, and their voices and eyes could reach every corner of the Blood Sea. However, there was one more person among the group that the Blood Duke called into the meeting. Cain might be young, and his time in the Blood Sea was short, but no one in the room felt there was a problem with his presence. Not only had Cain's attack pushed the High Blood Elder into the sky and away from innocent people, but he also took control of the Blood Pagoda just at the right time, avoiding thousands of unnecessary deaths. Regarding his loyalty, even a complete idiot could see that he was not part of the Blood King's scheme since there was nothing that man wanted more than to kill Cain. He was also a very important figure for the Collapsing Lightning Duke and the Imperial Lightning Fort since the mighty First Pillar acted as Cain's bodyguard. It was true that his current battle power was not much compared with the rest of the people in the room, but no one dared to look down on him for that. Cain's talent was so immense that it would only be a couple of decades before he caught up to them or even surpassed them. "It will be a very long time before we find out the true intentions of the Blood King and exactly when he managed to infiltrate the Blood Sea. If we go by his words, he had planned for one hundred years already, so there is no doubt he is not over with us. Right now, we must decide what our approach will be for the powerhouses of the Purist Path. Does anyone have a good idea they would like to share with the group?" Silence reigned as the Blood Duke spoke those words. Everybody understood the dangers of keeping snakes in their ranks, but the decision was not so easy to make. "We are not in a position where we can allow weakness. The Blood Sea must act as a single unified force if we want to handle the looming threat." Bloodless #1 was the first to speak, and his voice was eerily cold. There was a merciless light in his eyes, and everybody could understand his plan. Since they could not fully trust the powerhouses of the Purist Path, the only chance was to kill them all. "Killing all of them would mean a great loss to our war power and alienate the younger generation." Countering Bloodless #1's idea was none other than Radin's grandmother. No one would accuse the woman of having a soft heart since she alone killed two of the Purist Path's powerhouses during the Blood Sea's Civil War. However, her way of acting during times of war and peace was very different, worthy of a general who knew how to adapt to the battlefield and diplomacy. "We can mitigate the loss in war power by using them as furnaces to give birth to new powerhouses or transform them into battle puppets. As for alienating the new generation, while it could happen, it would not generate problems for a long time." Bloodless #1 immediately gave solutions to the old woman's concerns. Clearly, he was not just ruthless but also a brilliant tactician. Many of the people present widened their eyes as they heard Cain's proposal. While it was true that the Aegon Family was known for its assassination skills, they were also great detectives. However, there were problems. Not anyone could hire them, and they were extremely expensive. "You have a deep connection with the Aegon Family, so you will act as the proxy?" Bloodless #1 knew about Cain's connection with the Aegon Family. After all, he would have to be blind not to recognize Void State. "Yes. I have a very good relationship with a member of the Aegon Family. He has the authority to negotiate in their name. As for the price, the wealth left behind by the High Blood Elder and Second Blood Elder would be more than enough." Awkward expressions appeared in the powerhouses when they heard that. Many of them were already thinking of taking part of that wealth for them, but it seemed that it would not be the case. The Blood Duke and Bloodless #1 exchanged glances as they heard Cain's proposal. The Aegon Family did not fear the Dark Kings; with their skills and resources, they would have news quickly. Since Cain could act as their proxy, everything would go smoothly, so there was no reason to refuse. Cain saw the exchange between the Blood Due and Bloodless #1 and smiled. He had promised Jonathan to establish a channel between the Aegon Family and Blood Sea, and if both parties could benefit, all the better. The Blood Duke looked around and, after seeing everybody nodding, turned toward Cain. "We accept your proposal. I hope you can contact the Aegon Family once this meeting is over since the faster, the better." Cain nodded, then went to the next point of his plan. "Once we are sure there are no spies, we need to find a way to fix the division between the people of the Blood Sea, and for that, I have two words. Cultural exchange." Confusion appeared on the faces of the powerhouses when they heard that. They understood the term but were curious about the way in which Cain wanted to apply it. "As Bloodless #1 said, to face the incoming threat, the Blood Sea must act as a singular force, and it is impossible to achieve that goal with people that are xenophobic to the bone." Everybody nodded since they understood that the core of the animosity between both groups was the xenophobic behavior of the Purist Path, one that could only lead to the downfall of the Blood Sea. "There must be an exchange of ideas if we want them to break the prejudice. People of the Blood Sea must establish a sense of brotherhood with outsiders, and there is no better place for that than the military."
