"Chunshen Family?" Teng Qing Shan and Li Kun exchanged a glance.

  On the vast land of Kyushu, the sects are high and above. Perhaps some families can have a certain status within the sect. But outside, killing is not possible under the banner of family.

  Teng Qing Shan raised the sail and adjusted its direction.

  "Which family are you from?" Teng Qing Shan also sat down on the deck with a plop and asked.

  The little girl looked at Qing Shan and Li Kun, and said cautiously: "The Liu family of Hei Tie River on the island was defeated in battle and escaped to the island to recover. Unexpectedly, the Chun Shen family pursued and killed them all the way to the island, wiping out the entire Liu family of Hei Tie River."

  "Oh, you're not from the Liu family?" Teng Qing Shan inferred from the little girl's tone.

  The little girl lowered her head and said in a low voice: "I, I am a house slave bought by the Liu family."

  "House slave?" Teng Qing Shan wasn't surprised, looking at the little girl's tattered clothes, her pale and thin face, with scars on it. Apparently, life hadn't been easy for her.

  However, there was a little girl who spoke very logically and it was quite rare.

  Li Juan held the little girl's hand and looked at her: "From now on, you are no longer a slave in this house."

  "By the way, what's your name? How old are you this year?" Li Kun asked.

  "My name is Xiaoping, I'm nine years old," said the little girl.

  "Nine years old?"

  Li Jun was shocked, the little girl in front of her was pale and thin, looking like she was only six or seven years old. She didn't look like a nine-year-old at all. The little girl bit her lip: "I've been sold three times already, I often go hungry, so..."

  " Sold three times?" Li Kun was somewhat surprised and even more heartbroken.

  Teng Qing Shan narrowed his eyes and looked at the little girl. Li Kun was only surprised for a moment, 'Nine years old', this little girl could understand what the other party was thinking, and immediately replied that she had been sold three times and couldn't eat enough, so she was thin and small. This intelligence alone made Teng Qing Shan surprised that a nine-year-old child could have such intelligence.

  *****

  Night.

  The sea breeze blew, and the tung wood boat moved northward. The little girl called "Xiao Ping" was sleeping on Li Kun's legs. Teng Qing Shan stood at the bow of the boat, looking ahead motionlessly, like a sculpture.

  The sea breeze blew his robes, and Teng Qing's gaze fell on a small point in the distance.

  Although the distance is far, Teng Qing's eyesight in the dark can see clearly: "That is..." In the distant front, there is a large sea ship. "It looks like it's the warship that left the island earlier."

  The tung wood boat is small in size and faster than a large warship.

  The distance is getting smaller and smaller.

  "Hmm?" Several miles away, Teng Qing Mountain could already see the high-flying war flag, on which were two large characters that seemed to be dancing with dragons and phoenixes.

  "It should be Chun Shen two words." Although he didn't recognize it, Teng Qing Shan continued to guess.

  "Xiao Juan." Teng Qing Shan said.

  "Huh?" Li Kun looked up at Tun Qing Shan.

  "I'm going out for a trip. I'll get back on the boat later." Teng Qing Shan said with a smile, Li Kun was surprised and asked: "Teng big brother, in the middle of the night, are you going to practice boxing at sea?"

  "No, you'll know later."

  Teng Qing Shan walked down to the cabin, took out that black iron rod. With Teng Qing Shan's current marksmanship, even using the black iron rod, Huangfu Yujiang and the First God General 'Bei Yue Lei Mu' of this level would not be his opponent.

  Whoosh! Teng Qing Shan leaped out and directly plunged into the seabed.

  ******

  How fast is Mount Everest in the ocean?

  A massive sea vessel, nearly fifty zhang in length, resembling a gigantic beast lying dormant on the ocean's surface, was slowly advancing. A fiery red figure clung to the ship's bottom and emerged from the water's surface. It was Duan Qing Shan.

  "Shipbuilding skills are no worse than mine in the nine provinces." Teng Qing Shan's figure flashed, and he stuck to the side of the ship, carefully listening to the noisy sounds on the sea boat.

  There were many people on this warship, and the voices were also chaotic.

  "Three nines for Laozi!"

  "Hey, what a coincidence, I still have three tens! No one wants to stay, huh? There's also an old two, hurry up and pay!"

  Hong Qing Shan couldn't help but reveal a hint of a smile on his face. There were also some casinos in the Nine States Continent, where people played with dice and cards. However, it seemed that the rules of gambling in the Nine States Continent were different from those in the North Sea Continent.

  "Ah~~~ah~~~" The woman's scream.

  "Old Three, come on, let's have a drink. Today I owe it all to that one move of yours, otherwise I would've been done for by that old Liu." The clinking of cups accompanied the toast.

  A large crowd on the boat, indeed chaotic.

  "It's indeed a Chunshen family member." Teng Qing Shan vanished like a ghost in an instant.

  ……

  On the Chunshen family's warship, there were only over a dozen warriors on deck keeping watch. However, they were all very relaxed, and at sea, who would worry about being ambushed?

  "Get out, all you Chunshen family's good-for-nothings!"

  A metallic, icy voice pierced through the entire warship in an instant, echoing in each cabin. Suddenly, the originally idle warriors' faces changed one by one, like a pack of wolves about to go mad, all looking towards the source of the sound.

  "Who is it?"

  "Who dares to come and stir up trouble here!"

  One after another angry shout, accompanied by a large number of warriors quickly pouring out from the cabin, dozens of meters long empty deck gathered a large number of warriors, each holding a big chopping knife, staring at the black shadow at the bow with red eyes.

  "Silence!" A short-haired burly man wearing black armor raised his left hand, and the hundreds of people on the deck fell silent instantly.

  They still stared fixedly at the black shadow on the bow of the ship, as if they wanted to swallow it alive.

  "Who are you!" The short-haired strong man looked at Teng Qing Shan.

  "Pirates of the Jaidao!" The black shadow's cold voice rang out, "Less nonsense, all your money, books, maps and the like, bring them out. Otherwise... death!!" The voice was like metal clashing, making people's hearts tremble in the dead of night.

  But hundreds of soldiers on the ship were all elite soldiers of the Chunshen family, how could they surrender so easily?

  "Dare to rob our Chunshen family, are you going to rob us alone?" The short-haired strong man burst out laughing wildly, and hundreds of soldiers also burst into loud laughter. Although the short-haired strong man was laughing loudly, he was still scrutinizing the newcomer.

  He wore a black outfit, tall and slender, standing there like a straight gun barrel. In his right hand, he grasped a dark red long rod.

  "Stick-type master? Even if he's a congenital strongman, it's impossible for one person to rob an entire ship of elite soldiers, right? Among the people my Chunshen family has offended, there shouldn't be any congenital strongmen who use sticks." The sturdy young man thought to himself.

  "I'll count to three, if you still don't hand over your valuables..." The voice grew even colder.

  One!

  The black shadow shouted.

  "Brothers, take him down!!!" a short-haired muscular man roared loudly.

  "Kill!"

  Like a pack of wolves, each warrior grasped a large chopper, five as one group, forming a simple military array, each howling, with eyes full of frantic killing intent. Directly charging forward at the black shadow in front.

  That black shadow swung the black long stick in his hand fiercely!

  "Boom!"

  Like thunder, several warriors were smashed into pieces instantly. The force of this rod was so great that it also caused dozens of people behind to be thrown into the air, and the miserable cries echoed through the warship, with dark red blood splashing in the darkness. The black shadow immediately moved forward again, swinging its long rod to the left.

  "Boom!" Another sound, as if a voice rang out on top of his heart.

  Blood splattered everywhere, and another group of people were thrown into the air.

  Not a few flesh and blood splattered on the deck, and fresh blood stained the deck red. The hundreds of warriors who were still crazy, their faces suddenly turned white. They were completely stunned by the opponent's two clubs, standing in place one by one.

  "Are you going to shave me?" The metallic cold voice sounded again.

  A short-haired strong man's forehead was beading with sweat as he repeatedly said: "No, no..."

  "Boom!" Another loud noise, the short-haired strong man was thrown out like a sandbag and fell into the sea with a "splash".

  "Two!" The dark figure's icy voice rang out.

  It was then that those warriors remembered that the terrifying strongman in front of them would kill them all when he counted to 'three'.

  "We give, we give!"

  "Give me all your money!"

  "Book map we all give!"

  Although he didn't understand why the other party wanted a book map, at this moment no one dared to waste words, and the other party's powerful military force had already proven everything.

  "Hurry up and fetch it, or you will all die!" a cold voice rang out.

  A moment——

  The large chests filled with gold and silver were all piled up on the deck, and there were also many books and maps stacked there.

  Hong Qing Shan looked at the gold, silver and maps in front of him: "I didn't think that this North Sea Continent also uses gold and silver as wealth. So much gold and silver... I reckon it's just been obtained after slaughtering the Liu family of Hei Tie River."

  "You slaughtered the Liu family and got so little?" Teng Qing Shan asked coldly, "Where's the gold ticket?"

  Those warriors were all anxious and uneasy, fearing that the other side would discover that they had not handed over their gold and silver. Indeed... They hid a lot of it and didn't hand it over! Because if they really handed everything over, they would be in trouble when they returned to the Chunshen family.

  Moreover, they thought it was impossible for this strongman to know how much gold and silver they had actually taken.

  "What's a gold ticket?" one of the officers asked in puzzlement, "What is a gold ticket?"

  Hong Qingshan suddenly understood... In the North Sea Continent, there is probably no silver bank: "Oh? Is the North Sea Continent very chaotic, without enough power to establish a silver bank?"

  "Put everything into the pockets," Teng Qing Shan ordered, "Don't take the silver, just pack the gold!"

  Soon, those warriors will pack a large amount of gold, enough to fill three sacks. As for the books, there are only over ten volumes. Who brings books when going out to battle? There are quite a few maps, but most of them are military maps.

  Hong Qingshan carried a black iron rod on his back. Following that, he held two large bags in his left hand and one large bag in his right hand.

  Wow!

  His entire body burst forth with scarlet primordial true yuan, and he directly plunged into the boundless dark ocean.

  Hundreds of warriors ran one by one to the ship's side and looked down.

  "He's finally gone."

  "You scared me to death."

  The warriors finally let out a sigh of relief one by one.

  "Big brother, so much gold is being taken away, what will we do when we get back?"

  "You're lucky, running into such a powerful person and still managing to escape with your life and bring back gold and silver for your family. Is your family not satisfied? We're just lucky that this powerful person doesn't have any grudges against the Liu family, or else we'd all be dead by now. Good grief, one swing of his staff could kill so many people. Could he be a First Heaven Golden Elixir expert?" A military officer-like big-bearded warrior licked his lips, feeling somewhat fearful in hindsight.

  ……

  Tungsten wooden boat on.

  Li Kun and the little girl were discussing Mount Qingyun together when suddenly——

  "Whoosh!" A shadow fell from the sky and landed on the deck with a loud thud, causing the deck to vibrate two or three times.

  Hong Qing Shan casually threw out three large bags, and the gold bars inside the three large bags fell out directly. The 'golden light' of the gold bars made the little girl slave completely stunned. Li Kun was even more shocked.

  "Hmm, on the North Sea Continent, this amount of gold and silver is enough to spend." Teng Qing Shan said.
