Voyage With The Pirate King

Rui Li wasn't the type to back down and so the prisoner was long forgotten as the little miss drew a sabre twice her size flaring up like an angry bull. With a temperament not befitting of a young lady at all, she leapt up marking the beginning of a cat and dog fight.

Rui Yewan graciously accepted the challenge and the two began to fight. Seeing that the two of them were fighting and the other sleeping, the brawny man had a good idea. Crawling on his belly he made for the door ready to make his escape.

He vowed to bring backup after this and sell these brats at a very high price to his clients with unusual interests. But just as he reached the door and raised his hand to unlock it, the fighting pair was suddenly hauled to the wall by a powerful force bringing the fight to an abrupt end.

The man froze with his hand mid-air. He wanted to turn around and have a look but his back stiffened as though warning him that something dreadful was behind him. He heard gentle footsteps coming from behind making him panic as beads of cold sweat formed on his forehead.

With the footsteps approaching closer and closer he gulped in fear before making a stupid decision. In this type of situation, he actually had the balls to reach for the doorknob.

He should have known that the moment he agreed to meet with that new buyer who wanted to buy Nocru children that he was a dead man. This is how Rui Fei smoked him out of the sewers.

His entire body was suddenly pulled like a rag doll and lifted in the air by his neck. Petrified he looked down at his neck that was being strangled by an invisible force and panicked. Rui Fei was standing in front of him with both his hands crossed behind his back like a domineering headteacher.

The other two had just got up but didn't dare make a sound. But even though they were afraid to make a sound they were pinching each other while sending daggers with their eyes. The pinching quickly escalated to a catfight causing Rui Fei to turn around and reprimand them with his eyes.

As soon as Rui Fei's gaze fell on the both of them they pretended to act all innocent like the people who were pinching each other to death just now weren't them.

Rui Fei's lip twitched before turning back to the brawny man suspended midair. He took out a well-drawn portrait and asked, "Who is she..... and before you say you don't know I advise you to take a closer look as your survival depends on it?"

The brawny man whose eyes balls were almost popping out of his sockets nodded his head with great difficulty before taking a closer look. He took his time but like a student who was bound to fail the examination, he stalled reading and re-reading the question.

The sweat dripping on his face increased with each tick of the second hand. It was like he knew he was going to die but hadn't come to terms with it. The last girl Huang She took to Prince Rui looked nothing like this portrait so how was he supposed to answer?

"*sigh..... it seems you don't know either," said Rui Fei whilst carefully putting away the portrait. He was about to end this man when Rui Li reiterated the jiejie's description,

"Tall, crooked boobs and, and...."

"Deep voice," said Rui Yewan helping his sister.

"Yes, yes. Does that ring a bell. I mean you perverts would remember the boob thing, right?" she said unwilling to give up. They had searched for so long and were a little anxious to get something out of this man as he was closest to Huang She.

The man thought for a while but Rui Fei thought he was just wasting his time. A glint of red flashed in his eyes and the force strangling the man became agitated squeezing the life out of him. Realising his insignificant life was about to end a sudden thought crossed his mind and he said, "Wa-wa-it... I kn-know some..... thing."

Rui Fei scrutinised him for a moment as though trying to see if he was telling the truth or not. He only let him go when the man's eyes almost rolled to the back of his head.

The brawny man's body plopped down to the ground as he violently coughed. "Speak!" bellowed Rui Fei at his wit's end.

The man sensed his impatience so he said, "*cough *cough I *cough that's not the last girl. *cough she must be part of Pirate *cough King Ji's crew. Huang She told me he, he was approached by him *cough..... but I, I didn't think he would do it behind my back." He clutched his chest while rubbing his sore neck.

Huang She had mentioned it to him but who didn't know Ji Wen was a devil with a moral compass. People in the underworld would never have dealings with him without a good reason because he could screw you over if he didn't like the type of business you were in.

Now that he thinks of it that idiot probably did business with Ji Wen which got him killed. Rui Fei crouched before him and looked him dead in the eye asking, "Pirate king Ji?"

The man shook his head like a rattle and said, "Yes, yes him. Find Red Bane and I promise you will find her." He wasn't a hundred per cent certain but at the moment he would say anything to save his life.

Rui Fei's chest tightened as he slowly stood up. This wasn't the first time he had heard this name but it left no impression in his mind. From the get-go, he heard Red Bane was docked at the shores of Shangxin city but he didn't think it had anything to do with the lady in white.

After hearing this man's words it finally made sense but what would the fair lady be doing with this pirate? Was there a relationship between them or was Ji Wen like his father, a predator preying on young girls? If so then was his benefactor Ji Wen's captive?

In the middle of the vast sea....

"Achoo! Achoo, achoo, achoo..... fuck! How the fuck did I catch a cold?" said Ji Wen after a round of sneezing incessantly.

"Someone is probably talking about you," replied Ji Yao while handing his father a handkerchief without raising his head.

Ji Wen leaned on his son's shoulder devoid of any of the domineering attitude a pirate king should have. "Ya Ya, make me some soup. Your father is dying over here."

Ji Yao, "......"
