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

Chapter 1 Inheriting the Escort Agency, Max Level Nine Yang Divine Skill

"Master, please don't die!"

"Master, if you die, how will I live?"

Chu Sheng looked at the dying old man on the bed, tears streaming down his face.

"My dear disciple, your master is failing. I am entrusting the Zhenyuan Escort Agency to you."

"You must make the escort agency great and successful. The world of martial arts is dangerous, so you must protect yourself," Chu Wu said weakly. "From now on, you will be the chief escort of Zhenyuan Escort Agency. I believe you can do it."

"Master, I..." Chu Sheng wanted to say that Master had overestimated him. After eighteen years at Zhenyuan Escort Agency, he had only barely become a third-rank martial artist. In the world of martial arts where experts were as numerous as clouds, he was just a nobody.

"Master, don't die! The money from the escort agency is there; you haven't told me yet!"

"Child, everything about the escort agency is on the table. That's all I'm leaving you." After saying this, Chu Wu breathed his last and his arm fell onto the bed with a thud.

"Master..."

Looking at the corpse before him, Chu Sheng was overcome with grief. Over the past eighteen years, Chu Wu had been both his teacher and his father, and Chu Wu was his only family in this world.

In fact, Chu Sheng transmigrated as an infant. Chu Wu picked him up during a caravan escort mission, named him Chu Sheng, raised him, and taught him martial arts.

In the past, Zhenyuan Escort Agency was one of the four major escort agencies in the martial arts world, with a prestigious reputation and extraordinary status.

The escort agency had over a thousand members, and its power was renowned throughout the land.

At that time, Chu Sheng lived a very comfortable and carefree life. Because of Chu Wu's doting, he was a spoiled brat and an unparalleled playboy.

The path of martial arts is unremarkable, but listening to music in brothels and roaming among flowers are skills that one can learn without a teacher.

He thought life would continue to be wonderful, but three years ago, tragedy struck. Chu Wu was responsible for escorting a shipment of goods when he was ambushed by a mysterious person. Not only did he lose the shipment, but he was also seriously injured.

The Zhenyuan Escort Agency paid out a large sum of money to the victim, and from then on, the agency's business plummeted.

Chu Wu's health deteriorated rapidly, and the镖师 (bodyguards/escorts) in the镖局 (escort agency) left one after another. In just three years, only he and his master remained in the Zhenyuan镖局 (escort agency).

Now that his master is gone, he has to walk his own path from now on.

Can he really make Zhenyuan Escort Agency a success?

Can Zhenyuan Escort Agency return to its former glory?

Chu Sheng came to the desk and looked at the things his master had left him: ten taels of silver, a set of uniforms used by the Zhenyuan Escort Agency, a black broadsword, and a letter.

This is all the property of Zhenyuan Escort Agency.

Ten taels of silver isn't even enough to make a decent coffin for my master. How are we supposed to make ends meet?

Chu Sheng's face was filled with worry when, just then, a notification sound came to his ear:

[Congratulations, host, on successfully inheriting the Zhenyuan Escort Agency and awakening the Invincible Escort Agency System.]

"system?"

"You finally came."

Chu Sheng was extremely excited. Everyone knows that transmigrating grants you a system, so how could he not have one?

It turns out to be the Invincible Escort Agency System, which can only be awakened by him inheriting the escort agency.

Although we waited eighteen years, it has finally arrived, albeit late.

He looked at Chu Wu's corpse on the bed, "Master, may you rest in peace! Your disciple will definitely avenge you."

It's not that he couldn't inherit the镖局 (escort agency) and therefore couldn't awaken the Invincible镖局 (escort agency) system just because his master died.

This system is really awful.

"System, what functions do you have?"

"The Invincible Escort Agency System: As long as the host accepts an escort mission and successfully completes it, he/she will receive system rewards."

The system's requirements were simple, but extremely difficult for Chu Sheng.

Nowadays, the reputation of Zhenyuan Escort Agency in the martial arts world is so bad that even dogs would avoid it; it's impossible for anyone to hire them for escorting goods.

If you can't escort the goods, you can't complete the system task.

Chu Sheng was getting anxious. "System, there's no newbie gift pack?"

"Of course!"

"I'm the Invincible Escort Agency Gift Pack!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Chu Sheng said, "Open the newbie gift pack immediately."

"New player gift pack successfully opened."

"The host has received 100 taels of gold, one Dragon Abyss Sword, and one max-level Nine Yang Divine Skill Inheritance Card."

Chu Sheng: "?" Max level Nine Yang Divine Skill Inheritance Card?

Whoosh, take off.

Chu Sheng was no stranger to the Nine Yang Divine Skill, the pinnacle of internal martial arts in the martial arts world, and the ultimate cheat in defense and endurance.

Its internal energy is inexhaustible, growing stronger with each battle, and its power is so profound that it never runs out.

It can also achieve indestructibility, internal energy to protect the body, immunity to all poisons, self-healing from serious injuries, and finally, the ability to master all martial arts, which means it has extraordinary comprehension.

All martial arts in the world can be learned at a glance and mastered in a short time.

In summary, the Nine Yang Divine Skill is invincible, inexhaustible, the fastest to learn, immune to poison, and effective against evil spirits.

Without the slightest hesitation, Chu Sheng said, "Immediately use the max-level Nine Yang Divine Skill Inheritance Card."

"Ding! The host has successfully obtained the max-level Nine Yang Divine Skill."

A vast, boundless internal force coursed through his eight extraordinary meridians, instantly opening up hundreds of acupoints throughout his body, harmonizing water and fire, and uniting dragon and tiger.

Chu Sheng felt the pure and vast Yang energy in his dantian explode, like the rising sun, like rivers and seas flowing backward. His true energy flowed like ten thousand dragons returning to the sea, circulating within his body on its own without guidance, a process known as the Zhou Tian cycle.

Life goes on endlessly, without end.

All the barriers to martial arts in his mind shattered, and the moves and techniques that were once obscure and difficult to understand were now crystal clear.

His internal energy was extremely profound, yet gentle and vast. Extreme strength gives rise to gentleness, and water and fire complement each other. In an instant, his cultivation began to break through wildly, without any barriers or obstacles.

Fourth-rank martial artist.

Fifth-rank martial artist.

A sixth-rank martial artist.

.......

Peak of the ninth-rank martial artist.

This feels so good.

After his cultivation level skyrocketed, Chu Sheng could no longer suppress the smile on his face.

With the Nine Yangs in perfect harmony, one is impervious to all laws.

A moment later, he restrained his aura, his whole body filled with boundless power. Chu Sheng knew that his internal strength was unparalleled in the world and his physical body was indestructible. With such cultivation, what did he have to fear from others when he roamed the martial world?

Just wanted to chime in.

In the martial arts world, the levels of martial arts cultivation are strictly divided into nine ranks, with the ninth rank being the strongest. Above these are Grandmaster, Great Grandmaster, Free and Easy, Wandering Spirit, Celestial Being, and Land Immortal.

Something's not right. Why did he only break through to the peak of the ninth-grade martial artist after receiving the max-level Nine Yang Divine Skill?

Where exactly did the problem occur?

"Ding! The host's martial arts foundation and talent are average. The Nine Yang Divine Skill has been applied to change the host's physique, talent, and foundation, thus the cultivation has broken through to the peak of the ninth-grade martial artist."

"I see!"

"Ding, reminding the host that the escort mission must be completed in three days. Failure to complete it will result in the complete withdrawal of all system rewards."

"?" Chu Sheng was completely dumbfounded. "You can do that? System, you're not human at all."

system:".........."

Chu Sheng felt that three days was enough.

The most urgent task is to bury our master.

He picked up the large sword from the table, slung it over his back, and left Zhenyuan Escort Agency, preparing to go down the mountain to Qingyang City to buy a coffin for his master.

Qingyang City.

It is a city near the border. The population is small, but it is adjacent to the northern desert, so the people are fierce and martial.

Chu Sheng arrived in the city and went straight into a coffin shop. The shopkeeper was no stranger to Chu Sheng; three years ago, Chu Sheng was the hottest celebrity in the city.

Everyone knows that the young master of Zhenyuan Escort Agency is incredibly wealthy, spending lavishly at the Yihong Courtyard just to spend a night with a beauty.

"Young Master Chu has arrived!"

"Are they buying a coffin?"

Chu Sheng looked up at the shopkeeper and thought to himself, "I'm not here to buy a coffin, I'm here to shop." He said, "Boss, give me the best coffin you have in your shop."

The innkeeper paused, knowing the situation of Zhenyuan Escort Agency. "Young Master Chu, the best coffins are very expensive, costing thirty taels of gold, worth three hundred taels of silver. Do you have one?"

Chu Sheng tossed the money bag in front of the shopkeeper. "There are forty taels of gold in here. Have someone deliver the coffin to Zhenyuan Escort Agency for me."

The shopkeeper: "?"

Chu Sheng didn't say anything more, turned around and walked out of the coffin shop. Behind him came the shopkeeper's solicitous voice, "Don't worry, Young Master Chu, it will arrive this afternoon!"

Walking down the long street, Chu Sheng wasn't in a hurry to return to the escort agency; he was thinking about how to get a shipment.

Just then, a commotion broke out in the street. He looked in the direction of the sound and saw pedestrians running forward. Chu Sheng stopped one of them and asked, "Brother, what happened?"

The burly man with a thick beard looked displeased. "The Princess is returning to the capital and is recruiting martial artists within the city to escort her. They're offering a hundred taels of gold for this trip. Didn't you know?"

Chu Sheng: "......"

This is how we get work done!

Let's start our first mission by escorting the princess.
