Early the next morning, Jing Feng and Five Claws woke up and walked out of the residence that Longshan had arranged for them. They happened to bump into Xu Zhuo, who was preparing to go to the martial arts arena to practice martial arts.
"Good morning, Brother Xu!" Jing Feng greeted him warmly.
"It's you guys. How was it? Did you rest well yesterday? Five-clawed, you really scared us yesterday. How did you cultivate such shen power? What level of expert are you?”Xu Zhuo was still shocked by the divine power of the five claws yesterday.
"I was born with great strength. I have been strong since I was young, so I eat a lot.”With a bitter face, Five Arms unwillingly told him what Jing Feng had told him last night.
"Oh! Haha! I wonder how good Brother Five-Claw's martial arts are and what kind of weapon he likes to use.”Xu Zhuo asked enthusiastically.
"Weapons? I like to use axes, especially twin axes.”Thinking that his Heaven Splitting Axe could not be used, Five Claws 'heart itched.
"Let's go! Let's go to the armory of the Longhu Bodyguard Agency. I see that the two of you don't have a suitable weapon yet. Go and choose one.”After saying that, Xu Zhuo brought Jing Feng and Five Claws to the armory of the Longhu Bodyguard Agency.
"Jing Feng, Five Claws, do you have any weapons you like? These weapons were all forged by famous craftsmen hired by the Head Escort. The quality was very good, and each of them was a very good weapon.”Xu Zhuo pointed at the rows of weapons in the room.
Jing Feng and Five Claws walked into the armory and shook their heads as they looked at the rows of weapons. Five Claws transmitted his voice,"What kind of famous craftsman forged this? The quality is good. Can this be used? If I use force, this weapon will break.”
"Sigh! Five claws, mortals are mortals, unlike us immortal cultivators. You can gather or choose one. As long as we don't inject spiritual power into it, the weapon won't break.”Jing Feng sighed when he saw these weapons. The materials used to forge these weapons were really too lousy.
Jing Feng walked up to a heavy greatsword that was about 1.5 meters long and 40 centimeters wide. He stopped in his tracks and wiped the dust off the sword. He picked up the greatsword and waved it, but he felt that it was still alright. He said,"I'll choose it."
However, Five-Claw did not find any weapons like a giant axe in the arsenal. He only picked a one-ton sledgehammer and tried it out. Xu Zhuo was surprised to see Jing Feng and the other pick the two heaviest weapons in the armory. These two weapons had been stored in the armory ever since they were made, and no one was willing to use such heavy weapons. He didn't expect them to pick them.
"Are you sure? Don't you think it's heavy?”Xu Zhuo asked in shock.
"Yes, I've chosen it." The two of them nodded at the same time.
"Alright, let's go to the arena. The escorts of the Longhu Escort Agency usually practice martial arts in the arena. If you don't suit me, come and exchange as soon as possible. I also want to see your martial arts.”Xu Zhuo shook his head in concern.
When it came to martial arts, Jing Feng and Five Claws were considered laymen. Generally, self-cultivators cultivated spells by themselves to comprehend the heavenly secrets and absorb spiritual energy. During the competition, they would use the spiritual energy in their bodies to attack. They paid attention to killing in one strike and did not put on any airs. Because the spiritual energy in the mortal world was turbid, martial artists could not absorb spiritual energy to cultivate, so they could not use spiritual energy to attack. Martial artists in the mortal world generally relied on intense fighting to increase their strength. Martial arts emphasized technique and practice, so one move could often be turned into a hundred moves. One could infer other things from one, find the flaws, and attack when the opponent was unprepared. Jing Feng and Five Claws had never practiced any fancy moves, so they felt a headache when Xu Zhuo wanted to see their martial arts.
In the Longhu Bodyguard Agency's martial arts arena, there were quite a number of escorts who had come to the arena early in the morning to practice martial arts. When they saw Jing Feng and Five Claws, all the escorts who were practicing martial arts stopped and looked at the two escorts who had just been recruited by Longhu Bodyguard Agency.
"Brothers, these two are Jing Feng and Wu Zhua, the two escorts that our Longhu Escort Agency has just recruited." Xu Zhuo cleared his throat and said. Jing Feng and the Five-clawed brothers are both born with divine strength. You will know just by looking at the weapons they have chosen. The two heaviest weapons in our Dragon-Tiger Bodyguard Agency's armory have been chosen by them. Who among you wants to compete with Jing Feng or the Five-clawed brothers?”Everyone was shocked when they saw the heavy iron sword and hammer in Jing Feng's hands.
As he spoke, the tallest of the escorts, a two meter tall burly man, stood up and said loudly,"I, Zhao Niu, would like to have a competition with Brother Five-Clawed. I wonder if Brother Five-Clawed would be willing to give me the honor.”Zhao Niu was the strongest person in the Longhu Bodyguard Agency. He was a late-stage Earth Realm expert. When he saw his five-clawed body, his competitive spirit was aroused.
Wu Zhua saw that Zhao Niu was about the same height as him. Although he was not as burly as him, the difference was not far. Wu Zhua was also interested for a moment and said,"Alright, I'll play with you." When Five-clawed walked out, Jing Feng hurriedly transmitted a message to Five-clawed not to hurt anyone and to hide his strength.
The two burly men looked at each other from a distance. Five claws gripped a heavy iron hammer with one hand, and Zhao Niu also held a thick spiked club.
"Phew!" Zhao Niu was the first to make a move. His spiked club changed four directions and swung at Wuzhao, who was standing still. Seeing that the spiked club was right in front of him, Five-clawed grabbed the heavy hammer and blocked it.”Zhao Niu felt his arm go numb, and his grip on the mace loosened. The heavy mace fell heavily on the ground, and he himself was forced back two steps by the powerful recoil.
Zhao Niu widened his eyes and looked at Five Arms, who was still not satisfied."What a deep inner force. Zhao Niu admits defeat. I'm convinced. I wonder what level of expert Brother Five-Claw is.”
Five Arms thought for a while and didn't know what level of expert he should say. He vaguely said,""Quite an expert."
When they saw Zhao Niu, who was originally the strongest among them, lose his spiked club in a single move, all the escorts looked at Wu Zhua with admiration. However, when they heard Wu Zhua say that he was a rather high level expert, all the escorts let out a friendly laugh. Right at this moment, a clear voice rang out," We've seen what Brother Five-clawed is capable of. If it's not Brother Jingfeng, can you show us what you've got?"”A peerless beauty walked out from the crowd.
The beauty who spoke was Ao Shan, the publicly acknowledged number one beauty of the Longhu Escort Agency. She was Longshan's cousin and a mid-stage Heaven Grade master. Ao Shan was just like her name, arrogant and fierce. She would ignore any ordinary men, especially those who were weaker than her. When she saw the scholarly Jing Feng's indifferent expression as he watched the fight between Zhao Niu and Wu Zhua, she was so angry that she wanted to teach him a lesson.
When Jing Feng saw a beautiful woman challenging him, his heart did not waver. After the incident with Hong Yu, Jing Feng had long given up on the feelings between men and women. "Jingfeng is lacking in talent and knowledge. Please show mercy, Miss." Jing Feng said emotionlessly.”
Hearing Jing Feng's icy cold words, Ao Shan's heart was filled with anger. She raised her sword and stabbed over. The sword light drew out sword shadows that attacked Jing Feng. Although Jing Feng had never learned any dodging moves, he relied on his comprehension of space to dodge Ao Shan's sword shadows time and time again.
Seeing that her sword shadow did not even touch the corner of Jing Feng's clothes, Ao Shan became anxious and raised her inner energy to the peak, wanting to use her inner energy as a Heaven Realm expert to force Jing Feng back so that he would be convinced.
Jing Feng could feel the inner strength in Ao Shan's body continuously increasing. Every time Ao Shan stabbed out with her sword, it would bring about a wave of heat. When the spectating escorts saw that Ao Shan was actually ruthless for a small competition, the spectating crowd broke out in cold sweat for Jing Feng. Seeing Ao Shan's expression, Jing Feng also felt that it was somewhat troublesome. However, Jing Feng still used the surrounding air fluctuations to disperse all of Ao Shan's internal strength, thinking hard about a countermeasure.
After fighting for a while, Jing Feng saw that Ao Shan's inner qi had been consumed too much and she was gasping for breath. His heart softened and he did not dodge Ao Shan's sword shadow. His clothes were cut open and Jing Feng could not help but take two steps back,"Miss, Jing Feng can't beat you, so he admits defeat.”
Seeing Jing Feng admit defeat, Five Claws was extremely angry. Five Claws had never had the thought of showing mercy to the fairer sex and wanted to vent his anger on Jing Feng's behalf. However, his heart moved and Jing Feng transmitted his voice,"Five-clawed, calm down. I admit defeat on purpose.”Hearing Jing Feng's words, Five Claws looked at Jing Feng in confusion.
Seeing Jing Feng admit defeat, Ao Shan's arrogant face also softened as she said,"That's all for today. Just now, you didn't even use a single move and kept dodging. It's really not what a man should do. When I have the chance, I will definitely come and ask for your esteemed self's absolute art.”
Hearing Ao Shan's words, Jing Feng helplessly shook his head. Xu Zhuo, who was beside him, happily patted Jing Feng's shoulder and said,"Brother Jing Feng, I didn't expect you to have such a unique skill! He can actually fight evenly with Miss Aoshan. We've suffered at Miss Aoshan's hands before. Haha! It's our honor to be able to recruit you two brothers. Let's go! We've been playing all morning. Let's go to the back room for breakfast.”Hearing that it was time to eat, Five Arms, who had been unhappy because he hadn't had enough, suddenly became spirited and pulled Xu Zhuo to the back room.
Jing Feng and Five Claws stayed at Longhu Bodyguard Agency for more than four months. During these four months, Jing Feng chatted with Xu Zhuo and the other escorts during the day. From Xu Zhuo, he roughly understood the situation of the entire mortal world of martial arts. During this period, he also met Ao Shan a few times. However, Ao Shan always looked at Jing Feng coldly, so Jing Feng did not ask for a snub by talking to Ao Shan. At night, Jing Feng and Five Arms entered the Void Realm to cultivate. During this period, the Longhu Bodyguard Agency had taken over two escort jobs. However, because Jing Feng and Five Claws had just arrived at the agency, they were not very familiar with some of the rules of the agency, so they were not allowed to participate.
On this day, a middle-aged man dressed in black and a straw hat that covered his face came to the Longhu Bodyguard Agency before the two escorts from the agency had returned.
"Chief Escort Long, I have a treasured sword that needs to be transported from Leishan City to Redwater City, which is thousands of miles away and within the Chen Clan's sphere of influence.”The middle-aged man held a black sword box in his hand and asked.
"Haha! Our Longhu Escort Agency has been established for a hundred years, and we have never encountered an escort that we dare not accept. According to this journey, I think our Longhu Escort Agency will be able to safely deliver the sword to Redwater City in less than two months.”Long Shan said confidently.
"Chief Escort Long, this treasure is no small matter. Both the righteous and evil paths have been eyeing this treasure for a long time. Also, you must not open the box that contains the sword when you are carrying the dart, understand?”the middle-aged man reminded.
Long Shan frowned when he heard what the middle-aged man said. However, he could not ruin the reputation of the Longhu Bodyguard Agency. He took a deep breath and said,"Don't worry about that. We won't open the guest's goods casually. I'll also send the best escort to escort this escort. If anything happens, my Longhu Escort Agency is willing to bear the responsibility.”
"Since Chief Escort Long said so, I can rest assured. This is the deposit. After the matter is settled, I will pay the other half.”After saying that, the middle-aged man took out ten gold ingots and handed them to Longshan. He left the sword and the message and left Longhu Bodyguard Agency.
Seeing this person leave, Long Shan suddenly felt a sense of foreboding. Right now, his brother Hu Yuan and most of the escorts were not around, and he did not use many people. However, when he saw that person pay such a high price and that person's reminder, Long Shan felt a thorn in his hand.
Just as Longshan was fretting, Jing Feng and Five Claws happened to pass by the main house of Longhu Bodyguard Agency. Longshan remembered what Aoshan had told him and his eyes lit up. He called out to Jing Feng and Five Claws,"Jingfeng Five Claws, come, come, I have something to tell you.”
"Chief Escort Leader, why are you looking for us?”Jing Feng asked.
"Jingfeng! You two brothers have been in my Longhu Escort Agency for more than four months, so you should have some understanding of our escort business. I heard from Aoshan that your martial arts are not bad. Our Longhu Escort Agency has just accepted an escort business, so I want you two to follow me and escort.”Long Shan asked.
Without waiting for Jing Feng to speak, Five Arms quickly said confidently,"Chief Escort, we are willing to go. With the two of us going, you can rest assured.”
Looking at Five-clawed's confident appearance, Longshan nodded in satisfaction and said,""You guys go and prepare. Tomorrow morning, we'll head to Redwater City.”
