In the eyes of Zhang Nan and Song Yang, the small team of over a dozen people was like a cabbage tofu dish. With just a few moves, the two of them had already killed the bandits in the blink of an eye.

"No one on this island can stay." After Song Yang finished speaking, he quickly followed Zhang Nan and flew back to meet them. The people on the small island noticed Zhang Nan and Song Yang and there were also demonic beast s on the island, but they could not catch up with Zhang Nan and Song Yang without the giant eagle.

After reuniting with Fox Fairy and the others, Zhang Nan and Song Yang did not hesitate. They immediately rode their giant eagle and flew above the small island and started to pour fire oil on the small island.

"Burn them all? "Isn't that a bit too cruel?" Zhang Nan asked Song Yang.

"They want to dig out twenty thousand people's hearts. If we do not kill them, they will kill the commoners. What the demon catcher is capturing are not only demons, but also evil hearts." Song Yang did not hesitate at all. With one arrow, fire oil immediately ignited and the entire island was covered in a sea of fire. The island was engulfed in flames and surrounded by the ocean.

"If we kill them well, it's because we don't have enough kerosene. Otherwise, we will burn down this entire island and let these pirates run rampant, killing the innocent." Zhu Liu said.

"Sigh, this is an abominable war. How many people would die from this?" Zhang Nan shook his head helplessly and returned back to Quanzhou City on the giant eagle.

This entire night, Liang Chengwu sat and slept uncomfortably, and had been pacing around the tent the entire time. When he heard that Zhang Nan and the others had returned, his anxious heart was finally at ease.

"How is it? You guys didn't encounter any danger, right?" Seeing Zhang Nan and the rest entering the big tent, Liang Chengwu immediately asked.

"We did not encounter any danger, but one of the pirates' island was burnt by us." Zhu Liu patted his chest and said.

"Good, well done." Liang Chengwu clapped his hands, "But did you manage to get any information?"

"Yes, their Heavenly King is preparing to attack us soon. The army is split up into three groups and the island will send out everyone. This is the final battle that you had hoped for, General Liang." Zhang Nan said.

"This news is too important." Liang Chengwu was overjoyed, but then he frowned again: It's just that we don't know where the eight troops will come from, according to the scouts from the past, the remaining people of the pirates should be at least 30,000, and they have demonic beast s to help them, looking at us, the army of Quanzhou City is currently at less than 12,000, it's really not beneficial for us to deal with such an army of tigers and wolves.

"We can request for reinforcements. You are the exterminating governor, the other troops will listen to your orders." Song Yang said.

"That's right, we can bring all our troops to Quanzhou in advance. When the time comes, won't these pirates be like a turtle in a jar for us?" Pu Feier said.

"It's not that simple. Although I killed Governor Kou, but the other troops could use the defense of the pirates to launch a sneak attack and not listen to my orders." It's not that simple, although I killed Governor Kou, but the other troops could use the defense of the pirates to launch a sneak attack and not listen to my orders. Liang Chengwu said, his eyes filled with hatred, "It's just a pity that there's such a good opportunity, a chance to kill all the pirates in one go. The pirates have been wreaking havoc for decades, there aren't many such opportunities."

"A bunch of dog officials. If you ask me, you should kill them first. Otherwise, they would stab you in the back." Zhu Liu clenched his fists and said.

"Don't speak nonsense?" Zhang Nan stopped Zhu Liu and looked at him again, "General Liang, although our military strength is weaker, it's not impossible for us to defeat him."

"Hmm, does Hero Zhang have a good idea?" Liang Chengwu asked anxiously.

"The pirates started their army from the island. If they wanted to come, they would have to cross the sea and land on the shore. We could ambush them by the shore and attack them when they are on the shore, and then we would be able to achieve twice the results without worrying about the arrival of the pirates from the eighth route." Zhang Nan said.

"It is indeed easy to deal with. If we intercept them on the shore, even if we only have ten thousand people, we still have a high chance of winning." Liang Chengwu slapped the table and immediately became anxious. He wanted to discuss the strategy of the battle.

The pirates wanted to reach Quanzhou by boat. They could choose between five crossings, but the five crossings weren't very far away. The most they could do was travel twenty miles.

Liang Chengwu decided to split his army into five different paths and went to each of the five crossings to ambush others. If the pirates only managed to get ashore at the last moment, then all the soldiers would have to rush to the crossroads where the pirates came from.

As for Zhang Nan and the rest, they were also separated into five teams. As they had giant eagle s, they could fly to the surface of the sea at any time to check on the movements of the pirates, and also had the fastest way to send information to each team.

Zhang Nan followed Liang Chengwu to the Penglai Ferry, and they were also likely to be at the place where the bandits were angered.

Liang Chengwu led four thousand soldiers and just as they arrived at the Penglai Ferry, they started to look for a place to hide.

Zhang Nan waited here for eight days, but there was no sign of pirates. Every night, he would ride his giant eagle out to sea to inspect, but the sea surface was extremely calm. Let alone a bandit's fleet, he didn't even see a small boat.

However, every time they came, regardless of whether it was Zhang Nan who was at the Penglai Ferry, or Song Yang and the others who were at the other Ferry, they would all see it and kill him. They witnessed the situation where the pirates didn't bring any news back to the island.

It was just that for the past seven to eight days, there had not been any news of pirates at all. This made the soldiers unable to sit still.

"Ai, I've been waiting for so many days, could I have made a mistake?"

"Impossible, Master Zhang and the rest have lost to the pirates consecutively. Ever since we had them, the morale of the troops have skyrocketed, and they are invincible. Even the ferocious demonic beast cannot withstand a single blow from them, how could their news be false?"

"But they are not saints. The pirates are cunning. What if they have landed from somewhere else and don't come to Quanzhou?"

"This sort of thing is possible. However, I still believe in Great Hero Zhang and the others. Without them, we would have already been defeated long ago. Whether we would have lived or not would still be unknown."

"Fang Zheng, I think we're probably waiting here. The pirates won't come back."

There were all sorts of rumors in the army, but most of them were still suspicions towards Zhang Nan and the others.

Inside the tent, Liang Chengwu had also heard countless rumors. Looking at Liang Chengwu, Zhang Nan felt a little ashamed: "I'm sorry, General Liang.
