1 Dragon Gate Escort Agency, Martial Ancestor Long Fist

Great Zhou Empire, Lin'an City.

A courtyard that stretched for dozens of kilometers was located in the east of Lin'an City. Above the tall courtyard door, there was a plaque that said "Dragon Gate Escort Agency".

To be able to open an escort agency in Lin'an City and do it to such a great extent, it was enough to show how powerful the Dragon Gate Escort Agency was.

It was said that the chief escort, He Yushan, was a first-rate expert. Back then, he used a silver spear to sweep through 18 Escort Agencies in Lin'an City and killed his way to the title of "Jade Mountain's Silver Dragon Spear".

Moreover, not only was He Yushan powerful in martial arts, but his business acumen was also outstanding. In a short period of time, he made the name of the Dragon Gate Escort Agency resound throughout a radius of 5,000 kilometers in Lin'an City.

There were nearly 100 bodyguards in the entire Dragon Gate Escort Agency. Including the handymen, there were more than 1,000 people.

This was also the reason why the Dragon Gate Escort Agency could become the largest Escort Agency in Lin'an City and the area within a radius of 5,000 kilometers.

In the backyard of the Dragon Gate Escort Agency, there was a horse stall that reared horses. It was smelly and very few people came here.

At this moment, a tall young man was skillfully placing the grass into the horse trough.

Although the young man was wearing servants' clothes and doing low-class work, he had a calmness that did not match his status.

Even though he was in charge of the smelly horse stable, he did not complain at all. Instead, he did it very seriously.

This young man's name was Zhang Xuan. He was in charge of raising the horses of the escort agency.

Moreover, he had another secret that no one knew.

He was a transmigrator.

A year ago, he transmigrated to this Wuxia-like world.

This was a world where martial arts reigned supreme. The stronger the fist, the more reasonable one was.

After confirming that he had transmigrated, Zhang Xuan had also hesitated, not knowing how to face this unfamiliar world.

After all, he was only a mortal. Apart from being stronger, he had no power or background, it was very difficult for him to establish himself in this world.

Fortunately, the golden finger or cheat code that was necessary for transmigrators was quickly transferred to his account.

[Longevity Body!]

This cheat allowed Zhang Xuan to have an endless lifespan.

No matter what world one was in, having an endless lifespan was extremely attractive to anyone. Zhang Xuan was naturally no exception, making him very excited.

However, Zhang Xuan quickly discovered that apart from allowing him to live forever, he was still a mortal.

Even if an ordinary person wanted to kill him, he would still be killed if he couldn't defeat them.

Endless lifespan did not mean that others could not kill him.

However, Zhang Xuan did not care too much. As long as he was careful, no matter how powerful the other party was, he would still be able to outlive them.

In this world where everyone practiced martial arts, endless lifespan represented endless possibilities. As long as he cultivated diligently, he would definitely have no problem protecting himself even if he did not become a peerless expert.

However, Zhang Xuan quickly realized that he was taking things for granted.

It was easy to settle the accommodation, but what about food and drink?

After all, he was only a mortal and had to eat, drink, and poop.

After some consideration, Zhang Xuan found a mountainous forest and prepared to hunt for a living.

However, reality once again told him that it was unrealistic for him to rely on hunting for a living without any skills.

After hiding in the forest for three days, he did not even find a wild fruit, let alone wild animals.

After personally experiencing how reality could defeat a hero, Zhang Xuan, who was so hungry that his eyes were blurry, had no choice but to dispel his unrealistic thoughts.

In order to survive, he had no choice but to join the Dragon Gate Escort Agency and rely on his strong physique to make a living.

The Dragon Gate Escort Agency was the largest escort agency in Lin'an City. The chief escort was a first-rate expert. The businesses he accepted were from either high-ranking officials, noble ladies, or famous sects.

Not only could he eat at the Dragon Gate Escort Agency, but he would also be protected.

As for the dirty and tiring work, Zhang Xuan did not care at all.

After all, he only wanted a temporary shelter.

Zhang Xuan placed the fodder for all the horses and cleaned up the horse dung in the stall. Then, he sorted out the miscellaneous items and cleaned the courtyard before returning to his residence.

Although the work at the Escort Agency was tough, the treatment was not bad. A long-term worker like Zhang Xuan also had his own courtyard, even though it was a little dilapidated.

However, they did not each have a courtyard. Instead, several people lived together.

The moment Zhang Xuan entered, a black-faced young man walked over and asked Zhang Xuan with a smile, "Zhang Xuan, why are you back so early today? Why don't we have a drink together?"

The young man's name was Zhao Hu. Like Zhang Xuan, he was a long-term worker of the escort agency. They lived together and his greatest hobby was drinking.

"Less work today."

Zhang Xuan nodded slightly. He had no intention of chatting with Zhao Hu, let alone secretly going out to drink with Zhao Hu.

After all, he and Zhao Hu were only acquaintances. They were not even friends. What was there to drink together?

Seeing that Zhang Xuan was unwilling to drink with him, Zhao Hu muttered a few words and did not continue to persuade him. He walked away unsteadily.

Zhang Xuan returned to the small courtyard and tidied himself up briefly. Seeing that the others had not returned, he started practicing a set of fist techniques in the small courtyard.

"Phew…"

Zhang Xuan lowered his waist and swung his fist. The wind from his fist whistled and the air fluttered.

Every time Zhang Xuan punched, his speed was extremely fast. Moreover, the coherence of his fist techniques was as smooth as flowing water.

This set of fist techniques was called the Martial Ancestor Long Fist. The fist technique moves were simple, but the Great Dao was simple too. This was a basic martial art that everyone knew and was very common in this world.

In a world where martial arts were respected, everyone naturally practiced martial arts. Even the hard work of the escort agency would work hard to cultivate in their spare time.

There was no need to mention Zhang Xuan. Ever since he came to the escort agency, apart from doing his job, eating, and sleeping, he spent the rest of his time practicing boxing.

Only by strengthening himself could he truly settle down.

As for the Martial Ancestor Long Fist, it had almost no qualification requirements and was suitable for Zhang Xuan to cultivate.

After all, not only did other profound martial arts have requirements for aptitude, but it was also not something that anyone could learn just because they wanted to.

A profound martial art could build a top faction. Naturally, it would not be easily taught to others.

"Bang!"

Zhang Xuan punched a big tree in the courtyard at lightning speed. The tree, which was as thick as an adult's waist, shook violently, and leaves fell like raindrops.

Looking at the faint fist mark left on the tree trunk, Zhang Xuan raised his waist and retracted his fist. He heaved out a deep breath.

The Martial Ancestor Long Fist was not only a set of fist techniques, but it also cultivated both internally and externally. It required a large amount of time to train. This was also the reason why Zhang Xuan insisted on cultivating the Martial Ancestor Long Fist.

Although the upper limit of the Martial Ancestor Long Fist was limited and talented people disdained to cultivate it, there was no upper limit to Zhang Xuan.

With his endless lifespan, what he did not lack the most was time to cultivate. Even the most basic Martial Ancestor Long Fist could also increase his strength once he truly mastered it and cultivated it to the limit.

After having the ability to protect himself, he would have more opportunities to come into contact with more profound martial arts. It would not be too late to cultivate them by then.

After all, what he did not lack the most was time!

This was Zhang Xuan's greatest trump card. Even those talented peerless geniuses could not be compared to him.

Talent was only a huge difference compared to ordinary people with similar lifespans.

However, to Zhang Xuan, talented people were only slightly stronger than him with their explosive power. In terms of endurance, no matter how peerless a genius was, they could not be compared to him.

However, Zhang Xuan was not arrogant because of this. He knew very well that this world was much bigger than what he knew.
