The ruins of the Fifth Escort Agency are located in the northwest corner of Wulin Town. Five years ago, Zhang Ling¡¯s father, Zhang Xingze, mysteriously disappeared here. Due to the impact of the mysterious disappearance, most people did not dare to go near this place and took detours when passing by. In fact, when the Fifth Escort Bureau was first started, it was not the property of the Xia family in Wulin Town, but belonged to the Xia family in Yingri City. Later, the Xia family in Wulin Town and the Xia family in Yingri City had a falling out and were officially separated. The Fifth Escort Bureau was brought under the direct jurisdiction of the Xia family in Wulin Town. The name Fifth Escort Bureau is also named after several other escort agencies of the Xia family in Yingri City. To maintain the various expenses of a big family like the Xia family, a lot of money is needed. The Xia family in Wulin Town does not have any very profitable industry. Whether it is elixir refining or weapon refining, there is no way to make money. And among the disciples of the Xia family in Wulin Town, no one seems to be particularly outstanding. The number of crystal nuclei obtained from the monster beasts hunted and killed by the Xia family in Wulin Town was not very large, and the level was not very high. It is simply impossible to make money by selling crystal cores. And around Wulin Town, there are no rare medicinal materials, high-grade concentrates, gemstones, rune stones and the like. Otherwise, this place wouldn't be so desolate. When the Fifth Escort Bureau was first divided, it still had some ability to make money and could provide a lot of profits every year. But later, under the pressure of other forces, the business volume became less and less, and gradually began to lose money. Not everyone can run an escort agency, nor can you run it if you want to. If you want to run a good escort agency, you must have three prerequisites. First, the fist is hard enough. Second, the fist is still hard enough. Third, the fist is still hard. As for having many connections, having a familiar face, being able to get along, etc., they are all based on a strong enough fist. As long as your fist is strong enough, you will naturally have many connections, you will be familiar with others, and you will be able to get away with it. On the contrary, it would be a complete mess. The cruel reality is that the Fifth Escort Bureau¡¯s fists don¡¯t seem to be very strong. The Xia family¡¯s own strength in Wulin Town is not very strong to begin with, and it is impossible to guarantee the business safety of the escort bureau. The eight major families in Black Sand City all have their own escort bureaus, and some have several. With so many escort agencies, the competition between them is naturally very fierce. In order to survive and develop, all means, whether legal or illegal, will be used. Under the pressure of all parties, the Fifth Escort Agency is not strong enough and will only be slowly eliminated. Of course, these are all things of the past, and Zhang Ling doesn¡¯t want to look back. What he is concerned about now is whether he still has a chance to develop the Fifth Escort Bureau again. The missing father needs to be found, the three souls of the mother also need to be found, and the abandoned Fifth Escort Agency needs to be revitalized. By the way, in his previous life, as a professional bodyguard, Zhang Ling's biggest wish was to set up a legitimate bodyguard agency and do the business he liked. His greatest ideal is to be the chief escort and be the leader. Unfortunately, due to various legal restrictions, his wish has never been realized. Perhaps, his wish can be realized in the Beast Martial Continent? Arriving outside the Fifth Escort Bureau, Zhang Ling silently looked at the familiar but unfamiliar dilapidated building. He is familiar with it because he often comes here to play when there is nothing wrong with the Fifth Escort Agency. It feels strange because this place is completely different from what it was five years ago. Five years ago, the Fifth Escort Bureau, despite its sluggish income and bleak future, still looked good on the surface. An escort agency must give people a sense of security. To give people a sense of security, you must make others believe in your strength. If you want others to believe in your strength, you have to work hard in all aspects. For example, the facade. If even your own appearance is in tatters, how can others dare to believe in your strength? "It's a pity that five years later, the Fifth Escort Bureau is already in ruins. In the past five years, no one has easily approached the old site of the Fifth Escort Bureau, and no one has dared to come here to clean up or repair anything. It was exposed to wind, rain, sun and rain, and many houses collapsed. Those houses that have not collapsed yet look shaky and may collapse at any time. "Huh? Is there someone here?" Suddenly, Zhang Ling's expression changed slightly. He felt that there seemed to be faint fluctuations of true energy inside the ruins. The further forward you go, the more obvious the fluctuations in your true energy become. The site of the Fifth Escort Bureau is very large. In addition to occupying a large piece of land in the northwest corner of Wulin Town, there is also a large martial arts training ground that extends to the outskirts of the forest. The martial arts training ground is very large, and both bodyguards and bodyguards can practice on the martial arts training ground. This huge martial arts training ground can even be used to train cavalry's charging skills. Ordinary people enter through the gate of the Fifth Escort Agency and want to walk to the edge of the forest.? It will probably take an hour to walk. ¡°Don¡¯t think it¡¯s strange that there is a cavalry training ground in the escort agency. In fact, many escort agencies in the Beast Continent have professional cavalry teams. An escort agency is a force. And a strong escort agency is a strong one. The strongest escort agencies in the Beast Continent are as powerful as many big families. Some are even transnational escort bureaus, so you can imagine how powerful they are. Some super powerful escort agencies can even communicate with the six realms. They can forcibly tear apart the barriers between the six realms, sell goods between the six realms, and make huge profits. Think about it, how powerful would a chief escort who could forcibly tear apart the barriers of the six realms and communicate the cargo connections between the six realms be? If they were not strong enough, they would have been devoured by many enemies. The strongest cultivators in the Yan Teng Empire are all in the Seven Star Realm. And the chief escorts of some big escort bureaus are also above the seven-star realm. It can be seen that from the perspective of cultivation level, they are all similar. As for the bosses of those super escort agencies, they must be above the Bagua realm. Strictly speaking, isn't the Demon God Emperor also a boss? "Who's here? Come out! I'm Zhang Ling!" Zhang Ling suddenly shouted. He felt the other party¡¯s energy fluctuations, which seemed a bit familiar. He must be an acquaintance. ??????????? Vaguely, it seemed like Xia Chenmo¡¯s true energy was fluctuating. Why is he here? "Zi Chao! It's us!" Suddenly, someone shouted loudly in the distance. Zhang Ling was slightly surprised, as expected it was Xia Chenmo's voice. Why is this Xia Chenmo here? Hasn't he been practicing in Huoyun Cave? By the way, he has never seen this black charcoal-headed guy come out of the Fire Cloud Cave. He didn't even go back to Xia's house! He jumped to the heights of the ruins and took a look, and sure enough he saw Xia Chenmo's figure. Beside Xia Chenmo, there were three other people. One of them was known to Zhang Ling. This person was none other than Xia Chentai, who had fought against him before. Even though Zhang Ling was racking his brains and searching, he couldn't think of any reason why Xia Chenmo and Xia Chentai would get together. When he was in Huoyun Cave before, didn't Xia Chentai find a group of people to cause trouble for Xia Chenmo? The two even fought over this, and the scene was very heated. Why, after a few days, the former mortal enemies turned into good friends? For a moment, Zhang Ling's thinking was indeed impossible to guess. Could it be that these two guys were good friends before? Are you having trouble? Hatred out of love? "Xia Chenmo, what's going on? How did you and Xia Chentai get together?" Zhang Ling asked bluntly. Xia Chenmo turned to look at Xia Chentai and said sullenly: "He is the one who wants to follow you because he is so shameless." " You are together. It was the senior members of the family who repeatedly told me not to stay within ten feet of you. The second family leader told me not to stay within five feet of you." Zhang Ling was confused and confused. Said: "Ahem, can any of you tell me, what is going on? What are you doing in the ruins of the Fifth Escort Agency with a large group of you? It looks like you are looking for some treasure?" A delicate young man next to him came forward politely, saluted Zhang Ling respectfully, and said with admiration: "Brother Zichao, my name is Xia Chenning, let me tell you!" Zhang Ling nodded and said: "Okay, tell me." He knew this Xia Chenning, a very quiet person, a scholar among the younger generations of the Xia family. The so-called dragon gives birth to nine sons, each of whom is different. These descendants of the Xia family's Chen generation are all kinds of people. Most of the Xia family¡¯s descendants only practice martial arts and do not study. This is a common problem among children from martial arts families. Their martial arts skills may be good, but their cultural skills may be poor. Among them, Xia Chenmo is a typical example. Zhang Ling deeply suspected that this guy's cultural level was at most equivalent to that of a primary school student on Earth. And this Xia Chenning is a master of both civil and military skills, which is very impressive. His educational level is estimated to be equivalent to that of a high school student on Earth. In the world of cultivators, it is already remarkable to have an educational level that reaches that of a high school student. After all, the Beast Martial Continent is a world where warriors are respected, and scholars will not be taken seriously. The cultural requirements of cultivators are limited to being able to read the secret books of exercises.??. "If Xia Chenmo were to use the time he spent practicing martial arts to study, it would definitely be more uncomfortable than killing him. Unless you are a cultivator who is really interested in reading, as long as you know a thousand or a few hundred words, you will basically stop moving forward. Of course, what¡¯s more important is that Xia Chenning¡¯s grandma (strictly speaking, she should be grandma, the Xia family calls them grandma) is Xia Yuexin. Xia Yuexi is the eldest elder of the Artifact Refining Hall. He is knowledgeable and knows both astronomy and geography. As her grandson, Xia Chenning is more or less hereditary. ¡¡
