Chapter 19: Turtle Grandmaster
When masters clash, the outcome is decided in an instant.

"Qingfeng Sword? Humph, you don't even dare to use your innate unique skill? You're a coward!" The fist and sword suddenly separated, and Chen Xiaosheng was forced to retreat three feet. He put his fists behind his back to cover the bleeding sword wound.

On the other hand, the opponent, although retreated ten feet, was unharmed.

"Heh~ If I use my ultimate skill, do you still have a chance of survival?"

"Hahaha, why don't you give it a try? Anyone who can block my "Heaven-Breaking Fist" with just an intermediate martial art must be in the top 20 of the Grandmaster List! So... which one of the 20 are you? And can you withstand the Emperor's 100,000 Golden Sword Guards?" Chen Xiaosheng laughed and provoked him, while at the same time delaying time and regulating his breathing secretly.

Not to mention that the other party used his innate skills, even if the previous attack was repeated, he might not be able to withstand it.

There is no way, he has to accept his age. Now that he is over eighty years old, his energy and blood have long begun to decline, and his strength is no longer as good as before.

Upon hearing this, the other party narrowed his sinister eyes under the mask and subconsciously looked around.

As one of the top 20 Grandmasters, one of the very few people with the strongest personal strength in the world, he has never been threatened by anyone.

Subconsciously, he planned to leave no one alive.

Of course, this is just wishful thinking. There is always a loophole in a perfect plan, not to mention a spur-of-the-moment decision. Moreover, even if the person can be silenced, it is difficult to cover up the traces at the scene.

"Ding ding ding~" Just when his mood was fluctuating, countless silver needles as thin as hair shot out.

His expression changed instantly, and he flew back with the sword dancing, not daring to fight head-on.

"'Heavy Rain of Pear Blossom Needles'! Su Jishi, humph, you're hiding well enough!" The masked man barely avoided the flying needles, his energy and blood a little disordered. He stared at the figure slowly rising into the air behind an inconspicuous stone pestle not far away, and his face under the mask was even more gloomy.

"Father-in-law!" Ning Haichan finally felt relieved and bowed to Su Jishi in the air with gratitude.

Su Jishi didn't look at Ning Haichan, but stared at the masked man, and said with full energy: "Right and wrong, good and evil, I don't understand anything. This trip is just to fulfill a promise made to my beloved daughter, and we have nothing to do with each other afterwards.

Although you are a top Grandmaster, I don't think you can defeat the two of us together. Why not retreat and pretend nothing happened?"

Following Su Jishi's words, Chen Xiaosheng flew to Su Jishi's side and stood side by side.

"Swoosh~" The masked man was quite decisive. He turned around and left without any delay or nonsense.

At the same time, the other masked men saw this scene and did not dare to stay for a moment and retreated.

……

"Father-in-law..."

"Greetings to Grandmaster Chen, greetings to Grandmaster Su..." Inside the military tent, Ning Haichan and the reception officer greeted them one after another.

Su Jishi waved his hand and said, "Stop talking nonsense and continue on your way. After we reach the Imperial City, we will have nothing to do with each other anymore."

"Father-in-law! I am truly devoted to Susu, why would it come to this?" Ning Haichan said sincerely.

"Bah!" Su Jishi spat and didn't want to say another word to him.

Ning Haichan looked aggrieved: "Father-in-law, I know you blame me for not giving Susu the title of wife. This is indeed my fault, but..."

"I don't want to hear your nonsense! I just want to ask you one question, why don't you give the marrow cleansing pill to Su Jin?" Su Jishi interrupted him impatiently.

Ning Haichan felt even more helpless after hearing this: "Father-in-law, they are all my daughters. I cherish them all. It's true that Yu Tan is more talented and intelligent... The facts have proven this. This generation of immortal seedlings..."

"Bullshit, if Su Jin takes the marrow cleansing pill, she can also become an immortal!" "...Yes, yes, what father-in-law said is right." Ning Haichan stopped explaining.

"What? You are so perfunctory. Do you think I am taking advantage of my age?" Su Jishi became even more angry.

"..."

The scene became awkward for a moment.

Chen Xiaosheng coughed lightly and said, "Brother Su, what's there to say to these youngsters? We two old guys will go drink later."

Su Jishi finally calmed down a little.

"Yes, yes, Grandmaster Chen is right. Let's guess who that person is first. Who else has the ability to invite such a person to appear? Since such a person has come here, the people on Prince Yun's side and the Wang family's side will probably not be worse than this person, right?" The guide officer of Xunxian Palace hurriedly changed the subject.

"Hmph! What else is there to guess? Who else could be invited to participate who is among the top 20 figures on the Grandmaster List, and who else could it be except someone from their royal family?" Su Jishi glanced at the guiding officer with disdain.

"Could it be that... that person can't wait any longer?" The guide had just spoken when he quickly shut up.

Ning Haichan looked at him and nodded secretly.

Yes, how can there be a crown prince who has been in power for fifty years?
In addition, it is rumored that the immortal master may come to the world this year and bring His Majesty a longevity elixir, which may really be able to outlive the Crown Prince.

How can you not be anxious?

"Don't talk nonsense! Who in this world doesn't want to live forever and enjoy ten thousand years? It is possible that some peerless master wants to rebel and seize your majesty's immortal fate in order to obtain the reward from the immortal master." Ning Haichan said pretentiously.

"Yes, yes, that's right. It must be so. It must be so." The guide hurriedly agreed.

"There is no need to say more about this matter. The immortal official will report the truth to His Majesty. The key now is whether there is a foolproof plan for the next journey?" Ning Haichan ended the topic that was prone to problems and turned to look at his father-in-law and Chen Xiaosheng who were sitting high on the throne.

Chen Xiaosheng waved his hand. "As long as the other party doesn't dare to expose themselves, with the two of us old guys here, there should be no worries. What do you think, Brother Su?"

"Hmph, as long as you hold the line in front, I will dare to give you a cold needle from behind. If you die, I will leave immediately." Su Jishi spoke bluntly, without any airs of superiority.

"Hahaha... your title of Turtle Master is well deserved." Chen Xiaosheng laughed with his head raised.

With such a promise from his father-in-law, Ning Haichan felt at ease.

"Dad, have the bandits retreated? Are they really here to kill me?" At this moment, the guards brought Ning Yutan, Ning Sujin and Li Ji'an, three promising talents, into the tent.

"Hurry up and pay your respects to your Grandpa Chen and your Grandpa Su! If they hadn't saved your life today, you would be in great danger." Ning Haichan hurriedly winked at Ning Yutan.

Ning Yutan understood instantly and quickly smiled, her eyes sparkling with stars. "Grandpa Su, I've heard from my mother a long time ago that my second mother's father is a peerless master. Tan'er has always admired you immensely, and today I finally got what I wanted. Thank you for saving my life, Grandpa. Tan'er will never forget it."

She was graceful, enthusiastic, and such a cute little girl that Su Jishi, who was already in a bad mood, felt embarrassed to keep a stern face.

Especially when he saw his granddaughter Ning Sujin turning her head away and not looking at him, he liked Ning Yutan, the polite little girl, even more.

"You silly girl, didn't your grandpa seek an immortal fate for you back then? Unfortunately, you still don't have the blessing after all..." With a sigh, Su Jishi nodded to Ning Yutan.

After Ning Yutan finished thanking Chen Xiaosheng, Ning Haichan said to Ning Sujin, "Jin'er, you and grandpa haven't seen each other for a long time. Don't you always say you miss him? Go and let your grandpa take a good look at you."

Ning Sujin frowned and stepped forward reluctantly...
