Martial Arts Escort System: I Got A Maxed Level Divine Technique From The Beginning-Chapter 30 - Heaven and Earth Great Secret

Xu Ruoshen came quickly, and left even faster!

But Su Mo had already been merciful. Otherwise, taking his life with that palm strike would have been as easy as reaching into a bag.

Yet even so, Xu Ruoshen had to tumble several times in mid-air before he narrowly managed to land.

His feet touched the ground, but he couldn't stand steady, retreating three zhang away.

Barely steadying himself, his face was a mask of shock and confusion.

"My apologies."

Su Mo clasped his fists and strode away.

Yang Xiaoyun was certainly full of astonishment, but she followed suit.

Xu Ruoshen wanted to speak, but as soon as he opened his mouth, his face changed, and he instinctively clutched at his chest, feeling oppressive discomfort and a faint sweetness in his throat, a clear sign of having sustained an internal injury.

"What profound Inner Strength! This young master of the Su family is truly not as the outside world speaks of him."

He inhaled sharply, daring not to pursue any further. After a moment of silent contemplation, he stomped his foot and turned back to Iron Blood Escort Agency.

...

...

Inside Luoxia City, there is a large estate.

Within the estate, a secret chamber.

A middle-aged man sat cross-legged, in front of him on the tea table, two cups of clear tea were spilled.

However... there was nobody sitting opposite him.

Yet voices emerged, coming from behind a screen.

"They are on their way."

"I know."

"Are you sure of it?"

"I presume there's some chance of success."

"You're playing a dangerous game!"

The emphasis in the voice from behind the screen grew stronger.

The seated middle-aged man merely smiled gently and poured himself more tea: "Aren't you curious to try those new trinkets from the Endless Sea?"

The person behind the screen didn't speak, but there was a subtle presence of murderous intent spreading.

The middle-aged man continued: "Although it's risky, it is indeed the right move. Once they leave, the opportunity arises, not only visible to you and me."

There was still no response from the person behind the screen, but the murderous intent intensified.

So much so that the air in the entire secret chamber became thick, almost suffocating.

The hand of the man drinking tea also slightly paused due to this.

Then he heard the person behind the screen finally speak: "But remember this well."

"Please, do tell."

"If Su Mo encounters the slightest mishap, I will ensure that not a single soul of the Luofeng Alliance will find peace!!"

As those words fell, a fierce internal breath surged within the secret chamber, and when he looked up again, the person behind the screen was already gone.

The middle-aged man, holding the teacup, paused several times before he sighed gently:

"I'm not getting any younger; how is it that my temper is even less steady than the younger people?"

He intended to continue drinking his tea, but after a moment of contemplation, he set it down again.

He gently tapped on the table surface and murmured to himself: "Su Mo..."

...

...

"Su Mo..."

Following behind Su Mo, after leaving Luoxia City, Yang Xiaoyun kept her eyes glued on him.

Su Mo felt goosebumps all over from being stared at: "When are you going to stop watching me?"

"People say, 'a man can be judged anew after being away for just three days.' As for you, I feel like I need to replace my eyeballs," she said.

Yang Xiaoyun clicked her tongue: "Xu Ruoshen is not someone to mess with; that title of Cloud Catcher isn't for nothing. His martial arts abilities are incomparably greater than those of Wu Chengfeng. And yet... you still repelled him with a single palm strike. Where exactly does your Inner Strength come from?"

"Ah... that's a long story."

Su Mo sighed: "It happened one day as I was strolling down the street when I suddenly encountered an old beggar who dragged me into a corner, insisting I had exceptional roots and was a once-in-a-lifetime martial arts genius. He was determined to sell me a Martial Arts Secret Manual, saying that if I achieved anything significant, the responsibility to save the collapsing Martial Arts world would fall on my shoulders."

"???"

Three question marks rolled through Yang Xiaoyun's eyes, but she didn't forget to tease: "A Jianghu swindler, right?"

"That's what I thought too."

Su Mo nodded: "Logically, I should've just walked away. But that old man grabbed me and wouldn't let me go... He then took out several secret books for me to choose from. Seeing him in shabby clothes and appearing emaciated, I couldn't help but pity him. I thought he might be trying to make a living. The world is dangerous, life is hard, plus thinking about my own situation, I felt a bit of empathy."

"If one day I ended up in such a situation, wouldn't I also hope for a hot meal to eat?

"Perhaps I was feeling tender-hearted at that moment, so I casually chose a secret book and bought it for ten cents."

Yang Xiaoyun found this quite understandable, but she was also slightly displeased: "With what you said, would I just let you fall into destitution? When you squandered your family fortune, I wanted to knock you out and take you away. But father wouldn't allow it... these past years, you've turned over a new leaf, and didn't give me a chance to do so. But you should know that unless I die, I won't let you be left wandering the streets."

Yang Xiaoyun's words were not an oath, but they were more persuasive than any promise.

Su Mo looked at her and almost forgot how to continue his fabrications.

Fortunately, Yang Xiaoyun remained curious about the subject: "So, what secret book did you buy?"

"That secret book... it's called the Heaven and Earth Great Secret."

"...This, Heaven and Earth Great Secret? Something so Mystical?"

"How would I know."

Su Mo shook his head: "However, the introduction to this martial arts is impressive; it says that all martial arts in the world are contained within it, as vast as the sea that embraces all streams, can be considered an outline for all Martial Arts in the world!"

"Isn't that just a bunch of hot air?"

"I don't have a clue either, but below this preface, there's a statement explaining that the comprehension of this martial arts depends entirely on the practitioner's talent and comprehension. The higher the comprehension and the better the roots, the more likely one is to grasp the Absolute Skills. And throughout the text, not a single word about martial arts is mentioned. The odd thing is, once I finished reading these words, the book turned to dust.

"After that, the contents of the book kept lingering in my mind.

"Over time, it actually became something extraordinary; I really comprehended a set of Inner Strength, a set of Fist Technique, and my martial arts abilities advanced rapidly."

Yang Xiaoyun was stunned, but she didn't accuse Su Mo of making things up; she simply marveled:

"The end of the world is so far, Jianghu is so vast and immeasurable. Indeed, there are always people better than oneself, mountains beyond mountains. Your extraordinary encounter is truly incredible. That Divine Beggar who taught you this martial arts must also be a peerless master who wanders the Jianghu."

Seeing her expression, Su Mo stealthily breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that his story was a bit too over-the-top.

However, Yang Xiaoyun wasn't the type to think the world was only as big as what she's seen, mistaking her own limited perspective as the whole truth. Instead, she was more in awe of the wonders of Jianghu.

Of course, she believed wholeheartedly because it was Su Mo who told her so.

After contemplating for a moment, he asked in a low voice: "Sister Yun, would you like to learn the Heaven and Earth Great Secret and the two sets of martial arts that I've comprehended?"

"This is your fate; how could I take it for myself? Besides, the Canglong Bahuang Dianyun Spear of the Yang Family, even if I practiced it my whole life, I may not be able to reach the pinnacle. How could I be so greedy? However, if you are willing, we can spar more often."

Yang Xiaoyun looked at Su Mo: "I also advise you not to bite off more than you can chew. The path of Martial Arts is as vast as a boundless ocean; it is better to value quality over quantity. And... you must never speak of this Heaven and Earth Great Secret to a third person, or else it might bring disaster upon us, remember this well!"

Su Mo nodded eagerly, but he was actually relieved inside. After this, any martial arts he obtained from escort missions could be traced back to having an origin.

What's more, without him having to remind Yang Xiaoyun to keep their conversation secret, she was the one who commanded it, saving him quite a bit of effort.
