Inheriting a security escort agency, the game begins with escorting the eldest princess.

Chapter 43 One Strike Kills Xiao Ming

On the walls of Emperor Wu's city.

Haotian and King Wu stood atop the city wall, gazing into the distance as a great battle raged across the wilderness.

Su Changhe narrowed his eyes, a look of puzzlement on his face. "Brother Haotian, this young man is no ordinary person. He is the most talented martial arts genius you have encountered in all these years. Why don't you keep him by your side?"

"If he can join the Human Academy, the Human Academy will surely come out on top in the future Five States Competition."

Haotian said, "Do you think I don't want to? This young man's ambitions don't lie in the academy. Li Xiandao mentioned it in his letter."

"I never force anyone to do anything against their will."

"When he entered the academy, he was accompanied by Gu Jingchen and Nie Kuang. Both of them were famous in the martial arts world of Dongzhou, but they had already submitted to Chu Sheng, which shows that this kid intends to develop Zhenyuan Escort Agency."

Su Changhe was taken aback. "A security escort agency with two Grandmasters? This kid has quite the ambition."

Haotian nodded, "Everyone has their own ambitions, and we cannot force them."

"Choosing to form a good relationship with him will not do any harm to the academy."

"That's why I agreed to let him escort Xiao Su."

Su Changhe said, "He possesses the Wordless Heavenly Book, so it won't be easy for him to return to Chang'an alive. He's only just left Martial Emperor City and he's already being intercepted by a Grandmaster-level expert. Do you really believe he can safely escort Qingyan to the Myriad Swords Sect?"

"Should we step in and help him solve his immediate problem?"

"No need!" Haotian lowered his eyes and looked over. "The Great Qian Poison Master is no match for him. That kid is extremely arrogant. He might not even appreciate our help."

"Just watch closely; their confrontation will be over soon."

"The true energy within this young man is so powerful that there are very few grandmasters in the world who can compare with him."

Although Haotian hadn't spent much time with Chu Sheng, he could tell that Chu Sheng was no ordinary person.

This moment.

On the mountain.

When Xiao Ming clashed with Chu Sheng, his prized poison gas was utterly ineffective against Ye Yan. Under Tian Nu's blade, Ye Yan was sent flying backward, his aura boiling, his eyes filled with disbelief.

Despite being a Grandmaster martial artist, he had entered the realm for many years, yet his internal strength was still inferior to that of Chu Sheng.

Chu Sheng swung his sword again, his sword intent surging, and boundless true energy gathered on the blade. "Chaotic Heaven Sword Technique, Twelfth Form: Annihilation!"

""

A blade flashed coldly over Wudi City. Haotian and Su Changhe stood on the city wall and could feel the terrifying blade intent rushing towards them. Both of them showed expressions of disbelief.

How could his skill in swordsmanship reach such a terrifying level?

"Brother Haotian, this swordsmanship..."

""

"It contains the immense power of heaven and earth, surpassing the limits of a martial artist." Haotian said in a deep voice, his eyes filled with even greater doubt. "That's not right, he's a swordsman, so why do I sense such a strong sword intent emanating from him?"

"I thought he was a peerless swordsman."

"Could he be skilled in both swordsmanship and saber techniques?"

Su Changhe shook his head and denied it, saying, "Impossible. There has never been a martial artist in the martial arts world who is proficient in both swords and sabers, let alone someone so young."

"To have cultivated the way of the sword to such an extreme level is already an unparalleled genius."

"The Great Poison Master has met his match this time. Compared to Chu Sheng's sword, his poison is ultimately just a minor technique."

One strike could destroy the world, causing the earth to tremble and mountains to shake.

In the distant wilderness, Li Anlan, Su Qingyan, and Ye Yun, three beautiful women, stared intently at Chu Sheng with sparkling eyes, each with their own thoughts.

Nie Kuang looked on with admiration, muttering to himself, "When will I be able to cultivate my swordsmanship to the level of Young Master? This is what a swordsman should be like. I would call Young Master the God of Swords."

Gu Jingchen was overwhelmed with emotion, knowing that his worries were unnecessary; Chu Sheng's killing of Xiao Ming was simply a matter of overwhelming force.

With a single strike, he shattered Xiao Ming's poisonous aura and destroyed the Grandmaster-level true energy barrier surrounding him. Xiao Ming's figure flew backward, and the blade's light cleaved through his body, splitting him in two.

Instantly defeat a Grandmaster!

This is Chu Sheng's true strength.

Chu Sheng watched Xiao Ming's falling figure, then floated down beside the corpse, bent down and rummaged around, taking all of Xiao Ming's belongings.

Previously, he never touched the corpses after killing them, because those martial artists were too weak and didn't have anything of great value on them.

Xiao Ming's status is different; as a Grandmaster, he would definitely carry many treasures with him.

As it turned out, Xiao Ming did not disappoint him. The silver notes alone amounted to at least 50,000 taels, along with a roll of animal hide and some jade bottles, the contents of which were unknown.

After deciding to set off, Chu Sheng will find time to study it carefully.

The figure returned to horseback. Gu Jingchen looked at Xiao Ming's corpse. "Young Master, he's just left here?"

Chu Sheng said, "I will only kill, not bury."

"Old Gu, what do you mean? I'm going to find a place to give him a proper burial?"

Gu Jingchen smiled awkwardly, "Young master, you misunderstand. I didn't mean that."

Let's set off!

"Everyone's busy, who has time to waste on him?"

Chu Sheng spurred his horse and galloped away, disappearing into the wilderness. The others quickly gave chase.

Ling Shuo laughed, "Young Master is too domineering. To kill a Grandmaster with a single strike, who else in the world possesses such strength?"

On the city wall in the distance.

Haotian and Su Changhe were still in shock. That beautiful moment was unforgettable for them. Although they were slightly stronger than Chu Sheng, they admitted that they could not unleash such terrifying sword skills.

"Brother Haotian, if we take this kid to participate in the Five States Academy competition, his single strike would be enough to sweep everyone away."

"yes!"

"Chu Sheng's talent is probably no weaker than that of the Martial Emperor back then. If he continues to grow, his future achievements may surpass those of the Martial Emperor."

Haotian said with certainty.

Su Changhe was taken aback. "Brother Haotian, this is the first time you have given such high praise to a young man. I remember when Ye Yu joined the Human Academy, you said he was the most talented martial artist among the younger generation in the world."

"No, Chu Sheng and A Yu are different."

"Chu Sheng has great talent, while A Yu has a strong martial arts physique. They each have their own strengths," Hao Tian said in a deep voice. "It's just that A Yu's growth rate can't compare to Chu Sheng's."

"If I had a disciple like Chu Sheng, I would be laughing in my sleep. I really envy Chu Wu."

"Changhe, do you still doubt his ability to deliver the inkstone safely?"

"There's no need to question it anymore. There are only a handful of martial artists in the Eastern Continent who can rival him." Su Changhe's evaluation of Chu Sheng was also extremely high.

The two turned their gaze away from the wilderness and disappeared from the city of Wudi.

This moment.

Chu Sheng and his group rushed towards Zhenyue City. The return route was the same as the way they came, so they knew the way well.

"Miss Su, we'll be staying in Zhenyue City for a few days. Hope that won't bother you."

Su Qingyan's voice was like heavenly music, "It won't affect anything, everything will proceed as arranged by Master Chu."

Chu Sheng said, "Alright, I will take care of my own affairs as soon as possible and escort you to the Myriad Swords Sect."

"Miss Su, are you a disciple of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect?" Ling Shuo suddenly asked. "If you're going to become a disciple, you might as well join the Zhenyuan Escort Agency and let my young master teach you swordsmanship."

"No one in the martial world has a swordsmanship superior to my young master's."

Chu Sheng: "?"

Is this what Ling Shuo always says about him being tight-lipped? This guy is a big mouth.

I can't keep a single secret in my heart.
