Chapter 46: You’ve Done a Good Job with the Greenery
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
After waiting for a long time, there was no news of Wang Tiezhu dying.
Qin Shujian’s heart slowly relaxed.
It wasn’t easy to groom a Martial Entry-Level Five fighter.
Every additional Martial Entry-Level Five was someone precious to the Liangshan Stronghold.
If Qin Shujian had finally managed to obtain a Martial Entry-Level Five only to be killed off by players shortly after and fall back to Martial Entry-Level Four, that would be a terrible loss.
After that, Qin Shujian took a peek at his Life Value points as well.
His points were originally at more than 300, and now there were an additional 100 points.
But now that his techniques had all reached a very high level, upgrading any of them required many points.
This 400 points he had was probably only enough to upgrade his Seven-Flower Leaf Penetrating Palm.
But upgrading one palm method wasn’t of much help to his current overall level.
As for upgrading his Bodyforge Manual and Eternal Youth Technique, this pathetic number of points wasn’t enough to even be considered significant at all.
Besides, Qin Shujian looked at his Black Tiger Blade Technique that had already reached one with the Heavens level.
If he had to choose, he was most interested in this Black Tiger Blade Technique right now out of the many techniques he had.
Now that his Black Tiger Blade Technique had reached the one with the Heavens level, he was already able to surpass the Black Tiger Blade Technique’s previous level. He could even conjure the illusion of an actual black tiger to fight his opponents. This had helped him to gain an appreciation of its nature.
Qin Shujian really wanted to know if there was another level higher than One with the Heavens.
But it was a pity.
Even after gaining more than 1,000 Life Value points the last time, the plus sign behind his Black Tiger Blade Technique did not appear.
Right now, his Life Value points would jump a little every ten seconds or so. contemporary romance
This also meant that the Mountain Bandits at Liangshan Stronghold continued to help him harvest Life Values.
“Chieftain, I’ve settled everything already,” Niu Feng’s words broke Qin Shujian’s train of thought.
He turned his attention back to the present, and all the Mountain Bandits of Mount Mingai had been rounded up.
Qin Shujian immediately said, “Leave a small number here to guard Mount Mingai, and the rest shall come along with me.”
“Yes, Chieftain,” Niu Feng nodded in response.
After that, he got one of the Leaders and a dozen Mountain Bandits to remain here.
Mount Mingai started with about 50 Mountain Bandits, but about a dozen were killed by the players earlier, and they were now left with slightly less than 40.
After leaving another dozen Mountain Bandits behind, the number of Mountain Bandits who could really go out to battle totaled around 20 or so.
Out of these 20, one was Niu Feng at Martial Entry-Level Five.
There was also one Leader at Martial Entry-Level Four and two Leaders at Martial Entry Level Three.
The rest were all mostly Martial Entry-Level One and a few Martial Entry-Level Two Mountain Bandits.
This group was already considered pretty powerful.
“Let’s go!” Qin Shujian gave the order.
The Mountain Bandits of Mount Mingai led the way while Qin Shujian and Niu Feng walked in the middle of the group.
This group of 20-odd men started their way down Mount Mingai.
Along the way, Niu Feng said to Qin Shujian, “Chieftain, Chuanyun Stronghold is about 15 miles from Mount Mingai. Our legs are strong enough to get there in less than two hours.”
At this moment, Niu Feng was being as helpful as he could.
It couldn’t be helped.
It was hard for him not to be happy since his old enemy would be in boiling water soon.
Especially after he saw what Qin Shujian was truly capable of earlier, Niu Feng already understood this well in his heart.
Never mind one Chuanyun Stronghold.
Even if Zeng Hong of Messy Gold Mountain had to go up against this Chieftain, he would probably perish at this Chieftain’s hands too.
This Chieftain was definitely not just at Martial Entry-Level Six.
He might even be at Martial Entry-Level Seven or even almost at Martial Entry-Level Eight.
Martial Entry-Level Eight!
Once he thought of this possibility, Niu Feng felt shocked. Across all of the Messy Stone Forest and even the adjacent Undying Plain and Liger Plain, someone at such a level was definitely one of the most powerful.
Messy Gold Mountain might have a Martial Entry-Level Six, and that assumption was just based on probability.
But Niu Feng could guarantee that Messy Gold Mountain did not have anybody higher than Martial Entry-Level Six.
Otherwise, Given Zeng Hong’s tactics, he would not allow Mount Mingai and Chuanyun Stronghold to exist anymore.
Mountain Thieves!
They were called mountain thieves because it referred to how they were thieves that only appeared in the mountains and forests.
As such, Chuanyun Stronghold was also based on a mountain.
It was about the same as Mount Mingai. The mountain that Chuanyun Stronghold was on did not have a name, but it became famous after Chuanyun Stronghold took a foothold in that mountain.
“You’ve done a pretty good job with the greenery,” said Qin Shujian out of nowhere as he looked at the luscious mountain forests.
...
“Greenery?” Niu Feng’s expression was perplexed.
He did not understand why Qin Shujian had suddenly used this word and what he really meant by that.
Qin Shujian saw his confusion and just shook his head slightly. “Nothing. Isn’t the mountain before us part of Chuanyun Stronghold’s territory?”
“That’s right.”
Niu Feng quickly snapped out of his confusion and nodded as he said, “Chuanyun Stronghold’s camp is within this mountain, but if we want to actually get into the camp, then we have to proceed up the mountain first.”
“Niu Feng, you will go up the mountain with me. The rest will remain here. Anybody who goes up or down the mountain without any orders from me will be killed without question.”
Qin Shujian’s eyes suddenly grew cold, and he gave these commands.
“Yes, Chieftain,” replied Niu Feng and the rest. His heart was already stunned by this.
This was clearly a plan to defeat Chuanyun Stronghold completely.
Shortly after that, all the other Leaders brought their Mountain Bandits to guard the foot of the mountain and to block off any routes that could lead anyone down the mountain.
As for Qin Shujian and Niu Feng, they had already gone up the mountain.
...
“Chieftain, if Xu Yuanming refuses to surrender, what should we do?” Asked Niu Feng as he walked and observed Qin Shujian’s expression at the same time.
“Then there’s no need for Chuanyun Stronghold to exist anymore,” Qin Shujian stopped walking for a moment and turned to look at Niu Feng next to him.
That cold and aloof stare made Niu Feng’s heart pound wildly in fear.
He did not dare to think about anything else now.
As for Qin Shujian, from the time he decided to attack Messy Stone Forest, he had already decided to make sure everything here became part of Liangshan Stronghold.
If Niu Feng hadn’t responded favorably, Mount Mingai would not exist anymore now.
But then again, now that Mount Mingai was already part of Liangshan Stronghold, in a way, Mount Mingai did not exist anymore.
But at the very least, everyone was still alive.
So since he treated Mount Mingai this way, he would treat Chuanyun Stronghold and Messy Gold Mountain the same.
Qin Shujian had the same attitude towards all three places.
If Chuanyun Stronghold could read the situation, they should become part of Liangshan Stronghold and become part of Qin Shujian’s power.
But if Chuanyun Stronghold refused to surrender, then they had to be eliminated entirely.
After he found out that taking over the tokens of other affiliations could help his own affiliation level up, Qin Shujian had already decided on this.
After a short while, a guardhouse soon appeared within their line of sight.
A few Mountain Thieves had noticed the two of them and immediately blocked their way.
“This is Chuanyun Stronghold, and we do not allow anybody to just come in like this.”
“I’m the leader of Mount Mingai, Niu Feng, and I want to see Xu Yuanming!”
After Qin Shujian glanced at him and gave him the go-ahead, Niu Feng took a step out and declared these words brightly and loudly like thunder.
In an instant, many birds flew away.
Just when the Chuanyun Stronghold Mountain Thieves were about to make their next move, a Leader in Chuanyun Stronghold had come running over from afar.
“Our visitor is the overall head of Mount Mingai, Mr. Niu Feng!”
