"Maybe... these pirates are raised by Storm City?"
Qiao Mo said something that was very confusing to Lin Bai. For a moment, Lin Bai was stunned.
Are there shadows of several major families in Storm City behind the pirates in the Fang Sea?
At this moment, many questions in Lin Bai's mind were solved.
Why are the three major pirates able to run rampant in the Shuijing Sea, and why is such an important transportation thoroughfare in the Fang Sea turned into a paradise for evildoers?
The three major monster clans only care about the underwater world and the matters on the water surface. Since the decline of Tianshui Sect, no one has taken charge of them.
The Fang Sea has become a paradise for evil people, and cutting off the trade routes on the Shui Jing Sea is an unacceptable thing for the major cities on the Shui Jing Sea, and will cause heavy losses to the major chambers of commerce.
Especially Storm City.
Storm City is an important trade city connecting Shuijing Sea and Haizhou, and the Fang Sea is between the two. You can imagine how important this place is.
The Fang Sea area was cut off, causing heavy losses to the major chambers of commerce in Shuijing Sea.
Storm City is naturally no exception.
But...if there is a shadow of Storm City behind these pirates, then all this will make sense.
If Storm City is really supporting these pirates, then they will naturally not intercept Storm City's caravan, and Storm City can continue to do business safely.
But the caravans from other cities and chambers of commerce were not so lucky.
If things go on like this, other chambers of commerce and caravans on the Water Mirror Sea will be overwhelmed and will inevitably decline day by day. On the contrary, Storm City will become increasingly powerful and become a large chamber of commerce on the Water Mirror Sea.
Everything is for profit.
"But all of this is just speculation. No one has any evidence to prove that the three major pirates and the pirates in the Fang Sea are related to Storm City."
Qiao Mo said again.
Lin Bai said: "Since Senior Sister Qiao Mo has this conjecture, she must have this idea?"
Qiao Mo smiled and said: "After all, Baishenglou is a force of the nature of a chamber of commerce. In the final analysis, Baishenglou is still doing business. From a long time ago, the major chambers of commerce in the Shuijing world have secretly speculated that those who run rampant on the Shuijing sea
Pirates may have the support of experts behind them."
"After Tianshui Sect's investigation, we came to three conclusions."
"First, the master behind these pirates is a certain senior elder of Tianshui Sect."
"Second, it's a powerful force on the Water Mirror Sea."
"The third one is the strong man from Tianshui Sect's rival sect, Tiandi Sect."
"But this is all speculation, and Tianshui Sect has no evidence."
Lin Bai smiled and said, "Maybe the Tianshui Sect has evidence? It's just that they haven't produced it yet."
Qiao Mo nodded: "Yes, even if there is any evidence, with Tianshui Sect currently struggling to survive, there is nothing that can be done about Storm City and the three pirates, otherwise Tianshui Sect will never allow them to be so arrogant."
Lin Bai's face sank slightly, and a more terrifying idea came to his mind.
But Lin Bai did not say it.
According to the information provided by Qiao Mo, Lin Bai felt that the major families in Storm City would never have the courage to go against the Tianshui Sect.
As the saying goes, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse.
Even if the Tianshui Sect is in decline, it is not something that the major families in Storm City can challenge.
Behind the three pirates, there must be other masters.
Lin Bai guessed...it was very likely that Tiandimen was secretly supporting Storm City and the three pirates.
The purpose of Tiandimen doing this is very simple.
First, use the three major pirates to continuously cause trouble for the Tianshui Sect and increase the power of the Tianshui Sect.
Second, support Storm City as a forward position. Once the Tiandi Sect starts a war with the Tianshui Sect, Storm City will become the base camp of the Tiandi Sect.
If this is really what Lin Bai suspected, then the game of chess between Heaven and Earth has been played for a long time.
The layout started at least hundreds of years ago.
…
Huhuhu...
The wind is strong and the thunder is howling.
The originally calm sea suddenly became turbulent.
Waves of waves swept across and surged into the sky.
On the sea, the waves are like mountains.
A figure emerged from the water, standing on the tip of the thousands of feet of waves, looking at the Tianshui Sect warriors on the top of the mountain from a distance.
"The dragon clan is coming."
Everyone looked up and saw Prince Yan appearing with the Dragon Clan warriors.
Li Zai'en bowed his hands and said with a smile: "Prince Yan, you are welcome and well."
Prince Yan, who had a cold look on his face, raised his hand in a false manner: "Elder Li, there is no need to say anything more. I, a warrior from the Dragon Clan, have arrived, and the competition can start at any time."
Li Zai'en laughed dryly and said, "In that case, let the competition begin."
"Do the dragon warriors know the rules of the competition? Do they need to be mentioned again?"
Prince Yan said coldly: "No need! I, the Jiaolong Clan, are extremely smart, and we will definitely abide by the rules of the competition during the competition. On the contrary, you, a disciple of the Tianshui Sect, can you tell me clearly?"
Li Zai'en smiled and said: "Don't worry, Prince of the Banquet, the people of the Jiaolong Clan are extremely smart, and I, a disciple of the Tianshui Sect, am not a drunkard, so naturally I will not follow the rules of the competition."
"Okay!" Prince Yan smiled coldly, turned around and said to the Dragon Clan warrior behind him: "This competition will be bounded by the Fang Sea Area. You and others will each carry their tokens and disperse to all parts of the Fang Sea Area. If you are fighting with the Tianshui Sect,
When disciples meet, remember to put friendship first and competition second, and it is best not to kill innocent people indiscriminately."
"Of course, if you can't bear it anymore, it doesn't matter if you kill him."
Behind Prince Yan, a group of dragon clan warriors raised their hands and accepted the order: "I respectfully obey Prince Yan's order."
Li Zai'en shrank his eyes, looked back at the Tianshui Sect disciples, and said: "This competition is bounded by the Fang Sea Area. Leaving the Fang Sea Area without authorization will be regarded as an automatic abstention. The competition lasts for three days. During these three days,
You are responsible for life and death."
"Do you understand?"
Many disciples of the Tianshui Sect bowed their hands and said, "Disciple, I understand."
Lin Bai sneered in his heart: You are responsible for life and death...Does Elder Li mean to let us kill whenever we can? It seems that the Tianshui Sect and the Jiaolong Clan are really incompatible with each other.
Prince Yan said: "According to the rules previously discussed with the Tianshui Sect, I will issue tokens to the disciples of the Tianshui Sect, and Elder Li will issue tokens to my Jiaolong clan."
"Please, Elder Li."
"Please, give me a banquet, Prince."
Li Zai'en and Prince Yan bowed their hands, and they passed each other and walked toward the younger disciples.
Li Zaien came to the Jiaolong clan, took out the prepared disciple tokens from his storage bag, and gave them to the Jiaolong clan warriors participating in the competition in turn.
Prince Yan came to the many disciples of Tianshui Sect and also took out tokens and distributed them to the disciples of Tianshui Sect one by one.
These tokens are divided into two types.
One is an ordinary token, and the other is a coach token.
A total of one hundred warriors from both sides participated in the competition. After three days, the competition ended. The younger disciples of both sides won the number of tokens to determine the winner.
Ordinary tokens are worth one point, and coach tokens are worth five points.
In this case, the coach's token becomes particularly important.
