The Fuqing Pirate Gang was a branch of the shipping guild on the high seas, and was under the leadership of Ke Shouliang, the deputy leader of the shipping guild.
Meanwhile, Zhan Qixiong, the leader of the ship gang, was responsible for overseeing the base in Zhejiang and selling the smuggled goods from the Fuqing pirate group in various ghost markets along the river.
Thanks to Huang He's official backing, the ship guild was able to gradually grow stronger by taking advantage of the existence of the Ghost Market.
The Ghost Market has a powerful background in the martial arts world, and most martial arts forces are unaware of its true origins.
All I know is that ghost markets exist in every place, and they sell all sorts of rare and exotic treasures.
According to Ke Shouliang's confession, Li Chang'an learned that he and Zhan Qixiong were both city lords of Donghai Wudi City and disciples of Wang Xianzhi.
My senior brother took over the boat crew, and he was just called over to help.
The two of them used most of their earnings to support Emperor Wu's city.
It was used to maintain the security of the East China Sea and resist the invasion of Japanese pirates and Goguryeo.
The Fuqing pirates did not make a living by fishing on the high seas.
In their eyes, the other pirates at sea were the real fish they wanted to catch.
Double-crossing was the only way the Fuqing pirate gang made money.
In front of Li Chang'an, Ke Shouliang was servile and obsequious, but in the eyes of others, he was the Emperor of the Sea, the strongest sea dragon king on the ocean.
His mastery of the realm of a terrestrial immortal allowed him to wreak havoc on the sea.
Back then, Ke Shouliang, armed with a Guan Dao (a type of halberd), and his master Wang Xianzhi, fought their way from Kobe, Japan, all the way to the gates of the Tianhuang Imperial Palace.
If it weren't for the island nation's number one marksman, Yamagami Kuruma, intervening to stop his master, Tianhuang's head would have been fed to the fish long ago.
Moreover, most of the members of the Fuqing pirate gang came from the coastal areas and were brothers of the same clan.
Once on the battlefield, everyone was united in their fight against the enemy.
Unlike other pirate crews, they were not like a disorganized mess.
With their well-trained skills and Ke Shouliang's formidable strength, they were virtually unmatched on the high seas.
It struck fear into the hearts of countless pirates, and Japanese pirates fled at the mere mention of its name.
Unfortunately, Ke Shouliang was very unlucky today. He finally figured out where his nemesis, Mutou Lan, was hiding.
Before they could even go and seek revenge, they encountered the invincible Ming Regent.
Ke Shouliang, who has always been strong-willed, felt a chill run down his spine the moment he saw Li Chang'an appear.
You should know that this regent of the Ming Dynasty was someone even his master, Wang Xianzhi, would pack his things and run away as soon as he heard that he was coming to visit.
They were afraid that if they walked too slowly, they would run into this prince.
Since Li Chang'an was born, the usually taciturn Wang Xianzhi has become much more talkative.
What he said most every day was to tell his troublesome disciples that they must never offend that immortal disciple.
If you accidentally offend him, never mention his name, Wang Xianzhi.
That's why Ke Shouliang immediately started to feign madness when he learned Li Chang'an's identity.
After all, in his heart, his master Wang Xianzhi was an invincible man.
And the one who can make this invincible man feel afraid.
It's understandable that I have some fear.
But Li Chang'an's words, "I swore an oath before Mazu," made it impossible for Ke Shouliang to continue pretending.
As a native of Fujian, his conscience wouldn't allow him to deceive the goddess Mazu.
Otherwise, when I go out to sea in the future, Mazu will no longer protect me.
Under his leadership, all members of the Fuqing pirate gang successfully boarded Li Chang'an's ship and became prisoners.
Inside the prison, Ke Shouliang looked at the iron chains on his hands and sighed helplessly.
"I never thought that my good deed would lead me to this state."
When Deputy Regiment Commander Xing Yishan heard this, his face turned red.
"Commander, you're so naughty!"
Ke Shouliang looked at him and scolded, "Ganlin's mother, you're blushing like a teapot."
"I'm warning you, don't you dare flirt with me here, or I'll beat you up."
"Commander, she's really sincere towards you." Xing Yishan leaned on Ke Shouliang's shoulder, looking a little awkward.
"Fuck you, are you fucking in heat?!"
With a smooth, quick combo, Ke Shouliang slapped him twice, making him ecstatic and feeling that his leader had become even more manly.
After a while, the boat slowly started moving.
Chen Da stepped off the deck, with Xiong Er following behind him.
The two of them were somewhat curious about this maritime overlord.
In Li Chang'an's eyes, the Ghost Market and the Fuqing Pirate Gang were just a bunch of miscellaneous forces.
However, in the eyes of others, the Ghost Market is mysterious and unpredictable, and the Fuqing Pirates are the overlords of the sea.
People with different identities see things differently.
Once upon a time, Xiong Er was an honest man fleeing in the mountains, and Chen Da was just an ordinary soldier guarding the city.
At that time, the two of them thought that even a second-rate master in the martial arts world was an unattainable existence.
It will be something I can only dream of in this lifetime.
But now, Chen Da and Xiong Er, who are seen by others, have become unapproachable big shots in the eyes of the Fuqing pirate gang.
When the members of the Fuqing pirate gang saw the two of them, they immediately put on smiling faces.
Many of the core members possessed strength at the Grandmaster level or above, and the two deputy leaders were even Grandmaster-level experts.
However, even when facing Xiong Er and Chen Da, whose martial arts skills were not very good, they still wore fawning and ingratiating smiles.
It wasn't because of their official robes, but because the man standing behind them was named Li Chang'an.
