Martial Arts Escort System: I Got A Maxed Level Divine Technique From The Beginning - Chapter 1112 438: Nanhai Martial Elder
Shi Cheng was full of shame for a moment.
He originally thought that after mentioning his father’s name, at least he would receive some exclamations.
Even if they didn’t exclaim, ‘So you’re the son of the Nanhai Martial Elder’, there should have been a bit of a different reaction.
Yet, he didn’t expect…
His father’s golden name didn’t touch Su Mo and the others at all.
They didn’t even know who Shi Shengtian was.
This was too embarrassing.
The reason for bringing out his father’s golden name was a result of Shi Cheng’s careful deliberation.
Having been rescued by Su Mo and his people, it’s natural to say he owed them gratitude.
Not to mention, a life-saving grace would never go unpaid.
However, Su Mo and the others clearly didn’t have just good intentions.
Otherwise, they wouldn’t have blocked his acupoints.
The good news now is he’s alive, but the bad news is he doesn’t know how much longer he’ll live.
If Su Mo harbors ill intentions, then having his father’s name here.
Plus, the situation hasn’t reached the point of no return yet.
The matter might still have room to maneuver.
Before Shi Cheng traveled in the Jianghu, Shi Shengtian had advised him.
Learning to endure is a good thing, acting low-key and incognito more easily brings big gains.
However… when encountering real trouble, never wait until both sides have spoken irrevocably before bringing your backer into play.
In that kind of situation, you’re not worried that people aren’t afraid of the name ‘Shi Shengtian’.
You’re worried they are too scared.
If they fear the Nanhai Martial Elder too much, yet have offended his son, both sides forming a deadly feud.
What then?
If they let him go, and then he seeks the Nanhai Martial Elder for revenge, what then?
To prevent this, they would have to see things through to the end.
Directly kill and silence him, sink the body at sea, regardless of how supreme the Nanhai Martial Elder’s skills are, he might not find his foe for revenge.
However, before things and words between both sides leave no room, bringing out the backer, naturally they might not mind raising their hands.
It’s possible to turn enemies into friends.
But now… Shi Cheng never expected, after saying his father’s name, he’d get such a reaction.
Seeing Su Mo really intending to ask someone who knows, Shi Cheng blushed and said:
“Um… Brother Su, there’s no need, actually, my father’s name isn’t that big.”
“Brother Shi’s words clearly seem to deceive me.”
Su Mo said with a smile: “Just seeing you earlier, one can tell, your esteemed father is surely no ordinary person.”
“Well… there’s no need to ask others.”
Shi Cheng reluctantly said: “My father does have some minor fame in the Jianghu, favored by Jianghu friends, called… the Nanhai Martial Elder.”
Nanhai Martial Elder!
These four words struck them, Su Mo and the others couldn’t help but look at each other.
That’s quite a name.
Being people of the Jianghu, who would dare claim supremacy with martial arts?
Listening to Shi Cheng, it seems this title is acknowledged by Jianghu people, doesn’t it mean he’s the top master of Nanhai?
Ye Youchen sighed:
“Brother Su need not be surprised.
“Shi Shengtian is indeed the Nanhai Martial Elder.
“Rumor has it that early in his life, he set foot in the Nanhai Martial God Temple.
“He gained opportunities within, learning several Absolute Skills.
“For the next ten years, he mastered them, creating Heavenly Termination Nine Forms.
“Not once defeated in three decades since appearing in the Jianghu.
“The name Nanhai Martial Elder was beaten out with iron fists.
“However, ten years ago at Nanhai Peak, he challenged the top three masters of Nanhai.
“That battle was earth-shattering, yet ended in a draw.
“Unexpectedly, after this battle, Shi Shengtian disappeared without a trace.
“Gradually fading from the vision of Jianghu people.
“Afterwards, there appeared this fool…
“Our relationship began from a chance meeting.
“I recognized his Heavenly Termination Nine Forms, knowing his extraordinary background, so I befriended him…”
“I befriended him!”
Shi Cheng interjected unhappily upon hearing this.
Feeling that Ye Youchen always takes advantage, and even creates opportunities to seize advantage.
Ye Youchen smirked, looking as if he wouldn’t argue with juniors.
He just softly said:
“I roamed the Jianghu, laughed through life.
“At first, I had no good intentions toward this fool.
“Just wanted to trick him into teaching me Heavenly Termination Nine Forms.
“Later, I found that this kid is inherently kind, naïve and silly.
“I couldn’t bear it after several interactions, grew somewhat like-minded.
“In the end, we somehow ended up together, freeloading and wasting time.
“I came to Longmu Island for that Heavenly Tablet.
“Actually, the Heavenly Tablet is of no great use to me.
“But… I always find ways to get what I want.
“By chance, I saved a Medicine Slave who fled Longmu Island years ago.
“I learned the whole story.
“And this Medicine Slave even learned the Mystic Ice Seven Extremes of Dragon King Hall, how could I let this go?
“Tricking him out of his skills and all his secrets.
“Then decided to come here for the Heavenly Tablet.
“Unexpectedly…
“Perhaps it’s fate, ending up like this.
“I’m self-deserving, no one to blame.
“But Shi Cheng, truly has little to do with this.
