Once an expert makes a move, it's clear whether they have skills or not.

Zeng Chou originally planned to showcase his authority as a leader in this small three-person room.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he made a move, half of his body went numb.

His entire body was immobilized on the spot.

However, the martial arts used by the opponent revealed some clues to him, and he immediately asked in shock:

"What is your relationship with the Canglan Divine Blade?"

The young man and the woman exchanged glances and both sighed.

The young man clasped his fists and said:

"I am Duan Renjie."

"Duan Renjie..."

Zeng Chou's expression changed: "You are the second disciple of the Canglan Divine Blade?"

At this, he couldn't help but look at the woman:

"And you?"

"...Cheng Suying."

"Is it really you two?"

The fame of these two had indeed reached him.

In the past, when they roamed the seas of Nanhai, they were quite renowned among the younger generation.

Zeng Chou immediately dared not neglect them, clasping his fists to greet the two:

"It was just now that I was rude, I didn't realize it was the esteemed disciples of Canglan Divine Blade here; I have offended you greatly...

"However, you two disappeared from Nanhai for almost a year.

"How is it that you are here?"

But as he spoke, Zeng Chou could already feel a stirring in his heart.

There were always rumors that the Canglan Divine Blade sent his two disciples to Donghuang for training.

But whether these rumors were true or not remained unknown.

But if they indeed went to Donghuang, and the ship Su Mo captains also comes from Donghuang, doesn't that match?

"..."

What's the saying about mentioning something awkward?

The faces of the senior brother and sister turned green, but at this point, being prisoners of Su Mo, they had nothing to hide.

So they recounted these events in detail.

How they went to Donghuang for training, how they saw the lively scene at the escort agency, how they saw Su Mo accepting disciples and heard others discussing.

Eventually, Duan Renjie became dissatisfied and was thus captured by Su Mo.

Training in Donghuang lasted half a day, yet being prisoners had taken more than a year.

The recount left Zeng Chou dumbfounded, speechless.

After a long while, he finally murmured:

"Donghuang... the number one expert?

"Isn't this just exaggerated talk?

"In the Jianghu, who dares claim they are number one? Who dares claim they are undefeatable?"

The senior brother and sister exchanged a serious look, shaking their heads:

"This, from our year of observation, really isn't exaggerated.

"This person in Donghuang Jianghu has an incredibly large reputation.

"I heard the conversations of their servant occasionally; either people from the Dongcheng Seven Sects come to visit, or some expert comes to seek advice.

"There are even those who spend a fortune, hoping to become his disciple.

"In the end, this person declines all.

"Moreover, to become an Escort Leader at Ziyang Escort Agency, some people rack their brains for it.

"Some plead endlessly, just hoping to be a servant in the household.

"All these occurrences are truly astonishing."

"This..."

Zeng Chou was rendered speechless by these words.

He couldn't help but sigh deeply: "In that case, it's not unjust to fall into the hands of such a person today."

"Indeed... not just you, even if the Dragon King Hall Master, the Nanhai Alliance Leader, and the Gui Ruins Island Master were here and he decided to imprison them, they would be imprisoned.

"Wait and see, unless one is a Divine Dragon, it's impossible to cross the sea?

"Surely, there won't be smooth sailing, and then let's see how many people can fit into our small space here."

"..."

Zeng Chou was speechless, feeling Duan Renjie was just joking.

First in Donghuang, but not the first in the world.

Regardless of who, once they arrive at Nanhai, facing a person like him might be manageable; however, dealing with behemoths like the Nanhai Alliance, Dragon King Hall, there's still some gaps.

However, Zeng Chou thought carefully about Su Mo's character and actions.

For the moment, he couldn't quite describe the feeling...

And as they spoke, Duan Renjie suddenly said somewhat excitedly:

"Brother, you're new here and don't know the rules.

"So, let me tell you, there's nothing much on this ship we have to say.

"Meal times, food is delivered, and it's not too bad.

"We won't lack clothing either, this top expert has some grace and won't maltreat us.

"However, one thing... under a roof, one must lower their head when required.

"Su Mo is a cunning person; don't be fooled by his reputation, it's mainly for show.

"If you don't behave at times, he will make sure you live a fate worse than death.

"Also, the more courteous he is, the more ill-intentioned he becomes, so admit your mistakes quickly to avoid disaster..."

Duan Renjie began to chat incessantly about survival strategies with Zeng Chou.

Cheng Suying watched helplessly, gazing out through the window at the vast sea and sky, also sighing deeply.

Wondering how much longer such days would last...

...

...

One night until dawn, nothing was said overnight.

Zeng Chou was already prepared to engage in a drawn-out battle with Su Mo aboard this ship of Ziyang Escort Agency.

He thought nothing would come his way soon.

Unexpectedly, by late morning the next day, he was called out, told that Su Mo was looking for him.

In his bewilderment, he only saw a ship floating on the sea.

Without taking a closer look, Zeng Chou recognized it as his own ship.
