Although he had no prior experience fighting pirates, he figured that as an opponent, they should not be any more difficult to deal with than those professionally trained elites from the underworld.

Li Yuntang stood up, gracefully pulling Yan Xiaye to her feet, gently patting the sand off her clothes, and soothingly said, "It's fine, Xiaye, just cheer for me from nearby... hmm, maybe it's better if you stay a bit further away?"
"Li Yuntang..."
Yan Xiaye instinctively gripped the man's slender fingertips, her gaze flashing as she looked into his dark eyes, her voice noticeably tense, "Be careful."
