The Unrivaled Warrior Legend

Ep. 23. Shong Empire

Two years later...

In a wide body of water, a large ship had just been docked at the imperial port of Shang.

Several men got off the ship with dozens of sacks of wheat along with other essentials.

They were merchants from the Shong dynasty, they came to bring natural resources from their land to be traded in the Shang empire.

The horse-drawn carriages lined up near the port, and the men began to put one by one the resources on the carriage.

A man with full armour walked up to one of the men from the Shong Dynasty.

"Thank you for Mr. Minghao's submission. We on behalf of the emperor are very grateful!."Said the man.

"Together, hopefully our cooperation will always run well. Then we beg you to leave!."Minghao.

The merchants got back on board and sailed towards the high seas.

Along the way the merchants continued to feast and cheer happily.

"Dad." A beautiful-looking teenage girl approached Minghao while pursing her lips.

"What's Li Mei?."Ask Minghao.

"They're bothering me dad. They said that I'm getting married to Guan Lin."Said Li Mei in a spoiled tone.

The middle-aged man chuckled."Why not, baby. Guan Lin is a kind-hearted boy, he is also a martial arts expert. wouldn't he be a good husband to you!."Minghao.

"ih. father."Lin Mei was annoyed at hearing his father's remark, then she went to calm herself down.

On the outskirts of the ship Lin Mei sat while staring out at the sea, a gentle breeze kissed her long hair to the point of displaying her face perfectly, white and smooth as well as eyes as warm as the moonlight, what a beautiful teenage girl.

Slowly Lin Mei tears fell down her cheeks, really she really did not want to marry Guan Lin, Lin Mei still wanted to be free and enjoy her youth, studying martial arts and traveling the world, that was Lin Mei's dream.

But his father was a very hard man, those from the Hao family were obliged to marry at the age of 16, it was a rule that had been set long ago by their ancestors.

"For the girl who's about to get married. You seem to look very happy!."A heavy and slightly cold voice sounded in Lin Mei's ears.

Lin Mei turned her head towards the man who was lying on the edge of the ship with his eyes closed, his face was very handsome and perfect, his red lips and his long hair made him look like a woman. If the man wore female clothes as well as mimicking the voice of a woman, then Lin Mei would definitely believe that the man was a beautiful girl.

'He sleeps by the side of the ship. isn't he afraid of falling?.' Inner Lin Mei.

"Who are you?."Asked Lin Mei, she had never seen or met the man before.

"You don't need to know who I am. I'm just asking that you don't disturb my sleep!."The man spoke with his eyes closed.

"Did you say, do you have no shame?. This ship belongs to my father, if I want you to be thrown into the sea!."Said Lin Mei at length times wide.

"Gum."The man smiled lightly."Who is your father?."He said with a slight disdain.

"My father was Minghao, the most famous merchant in the Shong empire. Besides my father is also a martial arts expert who is most feared, they dub my father 'Crazy from the south'." Said Lin Mei showing off her father's prowess.

"Hum. is your father that crazy?" asked the man in a mocking tone.

"You-."Lin Mei was at a loss for words, she was getting annoyed at the man's arrogant attitude, if he was someone else, maybe at this moment she had already kneeled before Lin Mei because of hearing her father's name, probably by now, but the man ignored and was insulting.

"I'll report you to my father!."Ketus Lin Mei then he went down the stairs and walked over to his father.

"Dad. Dad!."Said Lin Mei.

Minghao who was drinking with the members turned his head towards Lin Mei.

"What's up, baby!."Asked Minghao gently.

"The man who slept on top of that insulted you dad.he said you were a lunatic!."Said Lin Mei innocently.

The crew members chuckled at Lin Mei's words.

"Wah elder Hao. it seems like you have a member who is secretly underestimating you!."Said Wang Chunying, he is the brother of Minghao, he has envy towards Minghao but he did not dare to show it blatantly.

Wang Chunying rolled a lazy eyeball.

Minghao and Lin Mei walked towards the top floor of the ship, as Lin Mei said, the man was lying on the edge of the ship with his eyes closed.

Minghao who saw that was a little surprised, as only martial arts experts could do that. If an ordinary person tried to do that, then he would end up falling into the sea.

"Who are you?."Ask Minghao.

"I'm a nobody. Because this ship is in the direction of my purpose, then there is no harm in hitchhiking, right?."Said the man.

"This ship is mine. I decide who can be on this ship!."Minghao.

The man opened his eyes, he turned around then sat facing Lin Mei and Minghao.

His brown-eyed bead stared intently with a flat face with no expression.

"as a merchant. Your words are too high, Mr. Hao."Said the man.

"Haha. You really don't know who the young man is talking to!."Minghao said, now that his face had turned serious, his beads were sharp.

"I know who I'm talking to. The craziest guy from the south, right?."Said the man in a mocking tone.

"Dad, he's already dared to insult you."Said Lin Mei.

Minghao ignited an emotion, his jaw hardened, his body in a hideous shroud of aura.

"I'll rip his mouth out!."Minghao growled as he darted and sent a punch towards the man.

The man smiled then he shifted and let Minghao's punch pass through him, after he landed three lucky punches onto the chest of Minghao's field.

A bag!

Bugs!

A bag!

Minghao crashed and fell to the floor.

"Dad."Lin Mei approached her father and helped him to stand up.

"A really fast shot!. What's that move?."Minghao asked with a surprised face as well as enduring the pain.

"Three deadly blows from Zuanzhen." Said the man.

"What?."Minghao was surprised, he was very familiar with that skill.

"Lucky I didn't hit you with all my strength. If I did, maybe now you're dead!."Said the man.

"Thank you young Swordsman, please forgive me for being so impolite to you!."Minghao said as he bowed his body.

"Dad!."Lin Mei tried to protest.

"No problem!."Said the man while laying his body on the edge of the ship.

"Ahhhhhhhh.. Young swordsman.If you may know, what's your name?."Asked Minghao in a sober tone as possible.

"Yuan Zhao's. You can call me Yuan. From today you will take me wherever I go!."Yuan Zhao said.

"Of course young swordsman!."Minghao said happily, Minghao is a person who greatly admires great warriors, he is willing to do anything for the sake of being able to make friends with them, today he met a warrior who is still very easy, he is still very happy, of course he would not waste that chance.

What's more the Shong empire is a very harsh place, for those who don't have a strong martial arts science will always be oppressed, all this time Minghao has always been subject to the orders of the great warriors, until he gave up his daughter's happiness, but with Yuan Zhao, Minghao hoped their lives would be safe.
