Chapter 67: Chapter 67: Howard Journey, Great Gains
The giant hamr stirred the wind, resembling the howls of demons.
Yang Quanfeng’s eyes contained a sinister aura, his killing intent was palpable.
Xinghuai saw the giant hamr coming and a slight sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth: "A man about to die, yet still stubborn. You will be the first Jinzhou Lieutenant of Lingzhou to die in recent years."
The giant claw clashed with the iron hamr, its residual force erupted, sweeping up endless sand and dust, making even the trees halfway up the mountain sway slightly.
Xinghuai initially wanted to entwine the giant hamr with his claws, creating an opportunity for Muo Yunzhi.
Yet before he could act, he felt a trendous force explode from the hamr, causing his claws to instantly break with a clang, blood scattering like rain.
Xinghuai was terrified to the core: "You’re using us to break through!"
The thought had just arisen when the giant hamr descended once more.
This ti, the hamr was even more dreadful than before, the gusts coming off it felt scorching.
Xinghuai hurriedly attempted to flee.
But as he retreated several yards, the hamr seed to have a mind of its own, pursuing his skull directly downward.
A thunderous roar erupted, deafening.
Yang Quanfeng lifted the giant hamr, looking at the pulp on the ground, sighed: "Still a bit short, you’re all too weak. Even suppressing cultivation for a life-and-death battle can’t aid my breakthrough."
Still not a breakthrough?
Muo Yunzhi swallowed, his white beard trembling slightly: "Yang Quanfeng, truly a madman, suppressing cultivation for a life-and-death war just for a breakthrough?"
He couldn’t understand why one would do such a dangerous thing.
Yang Quanfeng’s gaze was indifferent: "Once you join the Evil Extermination Bureau, you must risk your life."
"Risking life yields rewards."
"Jinzhou Lieutenants must also risk their lives. If I don’t, others will. I don’t want to one day die due to cowardice."
Muo Yunzhi let his hands fall, smiling bitterly: "Can you spare the remaining disciples?"
For now, he no longer had the heart for battle.
With Xinghuai dead, how could he face Yang Quanfeng?
Yang Quanfeng shook his head: "I cannot."
Muo Yunzhi clenched his fists: "Why?"
Yang Quanfeng pointed downward: "If they surrender, they can live, but under your old command, they fought desperately to break through. It’s a betrayal of the Bureau’s rules, thus they must die."
Muo Yunzhi was about to say sothing, but Yang Quanfeng gave him no chance.
The giant hamr fell, leaving a ss of flesh on the platform.
Down the mountainside, cheers shook the heavens.
The Jinzhou Lieutenant having slain the enemy leader was clear to the Bureau’s people, boosting morale greatly.
anwhile, the creatures’ side was like eggplant hit by frost.
Li Zheng watched the scene on the platform, gritted his teeth, and ran swiftly toward a spot.
The plan had failed; no one expected Yang Quanfeng to be so powerful.
Which direction Yang Quanfeng spoke towards was unimportant.
What mattered was Yang Quanfeng observing the battle below.
Given that, was his conversation with Fox Yun witnessed?
Li Zheng dared not gamble, choosing to escape — to flee back to the fox mother, ard with the intelligence he had accumulated over the years, to surely secure his life.
On the platform, Yang Quanfeng put away the giant hamr and spoke calmly.
"Li Zheng colluded with the fox mother and must be executed. Cheng Sufeng, you have grievances with him, handle it yourself."
"North."
As Jinzhou Lieutenant, his aim was not rely achievents.
He needed to balance all his Copper and Silver Lieutenants, allowing their developnt to be even.
Below, Cheng Sufeng turned into a shadow and vanished.
...
The battle continued.
Until one stick of incense later, the cries of killing gradually ceased.
Qin An, Nie Hu, and Ma Rou gathered, finding an empty spot to wait quietly.
Before long, Cheng Sufeng appeared, drenched in blood, carrying a head, and throwing it to the ground like trash.
Li Zheng’s head had wide-open eyes, dying with unwillingness.
A passing State Official spat at the head.
The Bureau always emphasized risking life for achievents and held a strong disdain for traitors.
Cheng Sufeng walked to Qin An and asked, "Are you all right?"
Qin An shook his head: "I’m fine."
Aside from the slight danger in the confrontation with Fox Yun, everything else was without risk.
The trip was fruitful.
Not only did he earn achievents, but he also accumulated a vast amount of blood qi, enough for further developnt.
The Cangshan Jade nurtured had finished, now he just needed to develop the Heart thod to the Jade Bone Realm to use Cangshan Jade as the main bone.
A wind sound arose.
Yang Quanfeng slowly moved in front of Qin An, scanning him, eyes carrying a sense of authority.
Cheng Sufeng felt a slight alarm in his heart.
Being Yang Quanfeng’s subordinate, he naturally knew his fiery temper.
Even minor matters tended to provoke Yang Quanfeng, and verbal cursing was light.
Cheng Sufeng didn’t know Yang Quanfeng’s intentions but realized Qin An seed to have trouble, steeling himself to approach and explain.
But before he could speak, Yang Quanfeng raised his hand to interrupt.
"Is he your subordinate?"
Cheng Sufeng nodded: "Indeed, he is my subordinate, but I don’t know..."
Yang Quanfeng looked at Qin An, "Body imbued and Jade Bone slain, not bad."
Qin An remained calm, bowing: "It was rely a coincidence."
Their exchange reached everyone’s ears.
Ma Rou’s expression shifted slightly, realizing her thoughts were correct; with Qin An’s talent, she wasn’t qualified to deepen ties with him.
Nie Hu’s scalp tingled, looking at Qin An with fear in his eyes.
Fortunately, he admitted his mistakes quickly; otherwise, if Qin An bore a grudge, his fate would be unfavorable.
Cheng Sufeng glanced at Qin An with surprise, disbelief evident.
Body imbued and Jade Bone slain, what a joke?
Each realm is a mountain, not re words.
But if this remark ca from Yang Quanfeng, Cheng Sufeng couldn’t help but believe.
Yang Quanfeng blandly stated: "Your thods are ruthless, actions decisive, and strategy sound, knowing how to feign weakness to enemies."
"When your strength reaches the Jade Bone Realm, I’ll assign you a task. Complete it, and you can take on a Silver Lieutenant post."
To be a Silver Lieutenant, one must not only have achievents but also possess Jade Bone Realm strength; both are indispensable.
Upon hearing this, Cheng Sufeng panicked.
He had painstakingly discovered Qin An, and his hands hadn’t even ward up, now to be seized by his imdiate superior?
How could this be?
Yang Quanfeng saw Cheng Sufeng’s expression and rebuked him: "Fool! Do you have the capability to recruit him? Your stupid actions will only harm him."
Cheng Sufeng realized Yang Quanfeng’s aning.
The Bureau’s demands were relentless, seeking achievents and aiming for higher positions.
Higher positions an better rewards, thus forming a cycle.
To keep Qin An would only limit his progress.
Thinking of this, Cheng Sufeng said nothing more, rely patting Qin An’s shoulder.
"If you beco a Silver Lieutenant, we can consider each other brothers."
The Bureau’s ranks were clear; if Qin An beca a Silver Lieutenant, no need to call him "Mr."
For those like Nie Hu, calling Qin An brother required bowing and addressing him as Mr. Qin.
Yang Quanfeng turned his gaze to Qin An, asking, "Do you agree?"
Qin An bowed: "I am willing."
