The clouds and winds shifted unpredictably!
"Perhaps... these pirates are being raised by Storm City?"
Qiao Mo said something that left Lin Bai deeply puzzled. For a moment, Lin Bai froze.
Could the pirates in the Fanged Sea Region have the backing of Storm City's great lineages?
At that moment, the many doubts in Lin Bai's heart were suddenly unraveled.
Why could the Three Great Pirates run rampant across the Water Mirror Sea? Why had such an important transportation route as the Fanged Sea Region become a paradise for villains?
The Three Great Demon Clans only controlled the world beneath the water. As for matters on the surface, ever since the Tianshui Sect had fallen into decline, no one had come to govern them.
The Fanged Sea Region becoming a paradise for villains and severing the Water Mirror Sea's main trade route was something the various cities on the Water Mirror Sea found difficult to accept. It would cause the great merchant associations to suffer devastating losses.
