Young Master Fang Is Truly Majestic!

Tian Yuan Escort Agency?!

Fang Chen had heard of this agency before.

They had a good reputation in Baihe County, and escorts they handled rarely had problems.

But because of this, hiring Tian Yuan Escort Agency was usually quite expensive.

Those merchants only sought the powerful Tian Yuan Escort Agency for protection when their goods were traveling through dangerous routes.

Zhou Hai continued to explain:

"The routes Tian Yuan Escort Agency takes are generally more dangerous, but because of that, the escorts' pay is much higher than at other agencies."

"I thought about how Senior Brother wanted to gain more practical combat experience, and this agency seemed like a good fit."

Seeing Fang Chen looking thoughtful, Zhou Hai continued:

"There's another reason why I chose this agency."

"Tian Yuan Escort Agency itself knows the dangers of the routes, so they usually have experienced old escorts lead the first few trips for new escorts to ensure the convoy's safety."

"Senior Brother can try escorting a few times. If you feel it's not suitable, you can choose others."

Fang Chen nodded, feeling that Zhou Hai had truly put in the effort and thought of everything for him.

Fang Chen cupped his hands in thanks:

"This agency is well-known. Ordinary people probably couldn't get in. If it weren't for Junior Brother's recommendation, they might not even consider me!"

"Thank you so much, Junior Brother!"

Zhou Hai laughed heartily, waved his hand, and didn't say much more.

He returned to his spot and continued practicing his fist techniques.

Fang Chen also didn't say much, quietly committing the matter to memory.

He swallowed an elixir, struck a stance, and began practicing the Tiger Subduing Fist.

Time always flew by when he was focused on practicing martial arts.

A day passed quickly.

[Tiger Subduing Fist Proficiency +2]!

[Tiger Subduing Fist Proficiency +2]!

His proficiency grew steadily.

Today, The Green Robe Gang's search operations had lessened slightly, but they hadn't given up.

Shen Tian carefully investigated the actions of Lu Jie.

He discovered that Lu Jie seemed to get into trouble almost every day.

For example, If someone without power or influence made a lot of money, Lu Jie would directly accuse them of cheating.

Not only would he confiscate the money, but he would also beat the person up!

If he found someone who was addicted to gambling, Lu Jie would let them win a large sum first, then let them lose it all.

Finally, he would lend them money at exorbitant interest rates, essentially a loan shark.

Indebted to the loan shark, these gambling addicts would continue to gamble, ultimately losing everything and ruining their families.

His methods for collecting debts naturally involved every trick in the book, as long as the money reached his hands.

Shen Tian flipped through the list provided by his subordinates, which detailed Lu Jie's various grudges.

The sheer number of incidents and the people involved made Shen Tian frown. He cursed angrily, "What's going on with Lu Jie? It's one thing that he made so much money, but he also made enemies with so many people?!"

"How am I supposed to find the killer!"

The gang members below were as quiet as cicadas, afraid the Hall Master would take his anger out on them.

At this moment, one of the men standing beside the Hall Master suggested:

"My Lord, whoever killed Lu Jie must be an expert. Although Lu Jie had many enemies, not many of them had significant power."

"If we eliminate the 'mud legs' on the list one by one, it will be easier to narrow down the suspects."

Hearing this, Shen Tian felt it made perfect sense and regretted not thinking of it himself.

He smiled and said, "You're quite clever. Let's do that! Have the subordinates quickly eliminate those 'mud legs' to avoid wasting time!"

The person who offered the suggestion smiled and nodded, "Yes, my Lord!"

Shen Tian immediately felt things became much clearer, and his mood improved significantly.

However, What people found interesting was, On these lists, the record concerning Fang Chen went like this:

"More than twenty days ago, a nobody named Fang Chen earned several banknotes at the casino. Lü Jie, feeling displeased, sent someone to ambush him with a blow to the head, accidentally killing the other party."

And just like that, "nobody" Fang Chen was temporarily removed from the list of suspects...

In reality, After the subordinates investigated thoroughly, They discovered that the old man sent to deliver the blow that day had died on the very same day as Lü Jie!

There were many suspicious points in this matter.

But after thinking it over, the subordinates felt, Didn't they say Fang Chen was dead?

Even though the old man's death that day was suspicious, Fang Chen shouldn't have come back to life, right?

They were bored out of their minds to confirm if a dead person had come back to life, So on the list, The old man's death was attributed to other causes.

And so, Fang Chen temporarily escaped this calamity.

The next morning, Fang Chen arrived at the Tian Yuan Escort Agency early.

After explaining his purpose to the person at the gate, a man led him towards the front courtyard.

Fang Chen quickly arrived at the front courtyard.

The person leading him told him to wait there, as someone would come to take him to see the Head Escort.

Fang Chen stood for a short while when a booming voice suddenly rang out from behind him, "New guy? Fang Chen?"

A burly man, who looked to be in his fifties or sixties, walked over.

He wore a half-worn brown escort uniform, his sleeves rolled up to reveal his muscular forearms.

A faint scar ran across his face from his brow bone to his earlobe. His eyes were as sharp as an eagle's as he scanned Fang Chen with a scrutinizing gaze.

Behind him followed two younger escort hands, looking at Fang Chen with curiosity.

Fang Chen cupped his hands and replied, "Yes."

The old escort's expression was somewhat cold. He said directly, "Come with me to see the escort head."

As he walked, he continued, "Let me tell you something first. For your first few escort missions, I will be accompanying you to ensure the safety of the entire escort team."

"But after that, you'll have to rely on yourself!"

"If you think you can get into the Tian Yuan Escort Agency through connections and then comfortably collect your pay, I advise you to leave the Tian Yuan Escort Agency as soon as possible!"

"Lest you accidentally die on the road later!"

Hearing this, Fang Chen finally understood why the other party's expression was somewhat cold.

It seemed the Tian Yuan Escort Agency was indeed difficult to get into, and they likely had very strict assessments of strength.

The old escort thought he had gotten in through connections, so he assumed his strength was not good.

That's why he looked down on him a bit.

Fang Chen didn't say much, just nodded.

Anyway, after just one escort mission, the other party would quickly understand his strength.

Soon, Fang Chen arrived at a room and met the Head Escort.

The Head Escort's attitude was quite friendly.

Upon seeing Fang Chen, he stood up from his chair and walked over to greet him.

The Head Escort smiled and said, "Are you the young master Fang? Just as young master Zhou said, you have an imposing manner and a dignified appearance!"

"His strength should be among the best in the Skin and Muscle Realm!"

The Head Escort said this, glancing at the Old Escort, as if trying to convey something.

The Old Escort merely snorted and turned his head away.

The Head Escort wasn't bothered. He and the Old Escort had been friends for many years, and he knew the Old Escort's upright character, always prioritizing the safety of the escort team.

Now that he had brought in Fang Chen, someone with connections, the Old Escort was bound to be a little displeased.
