On the large ship, Lin Ce looked in the direction of the sound.

In fact, he didn't even need to look; he already knew who had spoken.

The owner is Su Caiying.

Even after working together for so long, Lin Ce still recognized her voice.

"Why does she always want to join in on everything? She even came to this sea."

Lin Ce inwardly complained, but had no choice but to respond to the other party's greeting.

"What a coincidence, boss, I didn't expect to meet you here."

Su Caiying smiled and nodded, while Qiangwei, who was still by her side, only glanced at Lin Ce indifferently.

But those who know her well can see the surprise hidden beneath her calm face.

Lin Ce's previous performance had truly shocked her.

She was prepared to see such a powerful sea beast stain the blue sea with blood, but instead, the other party killed the sea beast with a single punch.

That's outrageous.

Is this still the same unranked martial artist who applied to become the chief镖头 (chief镖头, a position in the martial arts world)?

If you think about it carefully, it's only been a few months.

The rapid pace of development of the Sihai Escort Agency was somewhat beyond her comprehension.

Indeed, compared to Miss Seven, I really do lack business acumen.

"Chief Escort Lin..."

Su Caiying was about to say something when she noticed that someone had already walked over from the large ship. She subconsciously took a step back and fell silent.

The person who arrived was a beautiful woman whose exact age was impossible to discern, but she exuded an imposing aura, seemingly cultivated from long-term positions of power.

"Your martial arts are excellent. May I ask which school you belong to?"

Lin Ce looked at the woman warily.

He could tell that this was the one from the primordial sky.

Could it be that I stole the opportunity from the other party to kill the sea monster, which displeased them?

This is not a good thing.

The methods the other party had previously displayed were clearly beyond my current capabilities to handle.

"This junior has no affiliation with any sect or school, and has only practiced some rudimentary martial arts. It is far from being considered good martial arts. I hope you will forgive my poor skills, senior."

As the saying goes, one shouldn't hit a smiling face, so Lin Ce decided to first adopt a humble attitude.

"What rudimentary martial arts skills."

The woman sneered, "The sea beast that my longsword couldn't even kill was killed by your crude fists and feet. Doesn't that mean my sword is even inferior to your crude fists and feet?"

Lin Ce's expression froze.

He truly hadn't expected that the other party could find fault from such a cunning angle.

Being resented by someone with such great power is probably not a good thing.

The woman, with a cold face, said again:

"I see there are still quite a few sea monsters in this area. In that case, why don't you use your rudimentary fists and feet to take care of a few more and show everyone?"

Lin Ce maintained his humble smile, but a chill crept into his heart.

This is an aggressive move by the other party.

As a senior, how could you be so petty, even acting like this in front of so many martial arts practitioners on the large ship?

Su Caiying, who was standing to the side, frowned.

“Senior, this is the chief镖头 (bodyguard/escort) of our Sihai镖局 (Sihai Escort Agency). He is already very busy escorting goods on a daily basis. He is really powerless to help kill sea monsters.”

"So that's how it is, Sihai Escort Agency."

The radiant woman stared intently at Su Caiying for a long while before smiling inexplicably, "I remember now, it's the escort agency that helped deliver the congratulatory gifts."

She seemed about to say something more, but a cold voice came from the other side.

"Senior sister, if you really have so much free time to instruct the younger generation, then you might as well rest today and leave the rest to me."

Upon hearing this voice, the bright-faced woman's expression suddenly darkened, and her already bad mood seemed to worsen even further.

Under her gaze, Su Caiying felt a strange unease, her gaze drifting as she subconsciously looked in the direction from which the voice had come.

Lin Ce was also shocked.

Laymen watch the spectacle, experts watch the details.

Just as that voice rang out, his flawless body trembled inexplicably, almost losing its "flawless" characteristic, and the power within his body seemed about to leak out.

He was terrified.

Such a situation is truly unprecedented.

The person who spoke that voice was definitely no less powerful than the beautiful woman in front of them, and might even be much stronger.

Of course, it seems that only he, who possesses a flawless body, realized this.

He looked around and found that the many martial arts practitioners on the ship still had normal expressions, as if they had not noticed the special power contained in the voice at all.

The radiant woman had already ascended into the air.

“Junior Sister Yang, there was an accident just now. How about I cut off another one, then you cut off another one, and so on, and then we’ll judge who’s better?”

"Why go through all this trouble? Senior sister, just go ahead and do whatever you want. I'll help when you can't hold on any longer."

The sound enraged the beautiful woman in the sky.

"Hmph, after all these years, you still haven't let go of the sharp tongue you learned from others back then."

She ignored the other voice, and at that moment the longsword was drawn again, and the scene of "Azure Water and Mirror Sky" reappeared.

The many martial arts practitioners on the large ship watched with great interest.

Martial artists with keen insight and skill at a certain level praised it repeatedly.

"As expected of a strong contender for the position of the peak master of Biyue Peak, his mastery of 'Martial Dao Intent' is so refined that even among fourth-grade Xiantian cultivators, he is among the top."

Who are you?

"I am a gold-medal writer from Qianqiu Pavilion."

"I've heard so much about you. The gold medalist has come here; could it be to have this matter listed?"

"Naturally, the ascension of a new peak master to Biyue Peak is such a momentous event that it deserves to be included in this issue's Four Seas Ranking."

...

Lin Ce stood far to the side, listening to the chatter of the crowd.

He roughly figured out the level of strength of that beautiful woman.

A fourth-grade innate being is two levels higher than his current sixth-grade innate being.

Even though his strength was far superior to that of an ordinary sixth-grade innate cultivator, he would probably still have to keep a low profile in front of a fourth-grade innate cultivator.

The key lies in that "martial arts realm".

"Can I, with my flawless body, master the essence of martial arts?"

Lin Ce pondered to himself, realizing he really wasn't quite sure.

After all, once he embarked on the path of achieving the flawless body, his martial arts cultivation became very different from that of ordinary martial artists.

At the True Qi Realm, the True Qi he cultivated could not be released outside his body; it could only be nurtured within his body.

"Chief镖师 Lin, come over here."

Just then, the voice of Su Caiying, the owner, came from nearby.

Lin Ce eventually walked over.

"Don't worry, as long as you stand with me, no matter how arrogant that person is, he won't dare to lay a hand on you."

Su Caiying smiled smugly.

The Su family has this kind of confidence.

Meanwhile, the sea surface had already begun to ripple again, and new sea creatures were leaping out.

A stream of clear water cascaded down like a curtain, and the sea beast screamed as it was cleaved in two.

Lin Ce felt a chill run down his spine as he watched the two pieces of the sea monster's body fall back into the water with a "plop".

Even if they could kill such a sea beast, it would already be the result of their best efforts.

As expected, he still couldn't compete with the woman who possessed "sword intent".

"Junior sister, are you not going to make a move? Then I'll just kill them all myself."

The voice of the beautiful woman echoed from the sky.

However, the next moment, her slightly smug voice began to tremble.

Below, beneath the sea surface, a terrifying pressure emanated directly through the seawater.

The entire sea was now churning with raging waves, and her "blue waters and mirror-like sky" artistic conception could not maintain its calm at all.

The large ship was being battered by the giant waves and thrown into the sky, seemingly about to capsize in the raging waves at any moment.
