Annihilate the Enemy

The Snow Ape was cleaved in two with a single strike, a scene that sent chills down Shao Chengfeng and Feng Yi'an's spines, causing them to retreat involuntarily, doubting once more if their leader could truly handle him.

Fu Entao's expression shifted slightly, but his attack remained unaffected. Exploiting the opening created when Qin Ming sidestepped the Snow Ape, he slashed forward with his gleaming long saber, cleaving through the wind and snow with immense power.

Qin Ming seemed to have anticipated this, using his left hand to block behind him with the spear, facing away from Fu Entao with the spear across his back. Then, he leaped forward, using the heavy force of Fu Entao's fierce strike on the iron spear shaft to accelerate his charge.

Ordinary people wouldn't dare to do this, because even if they weren't killed on the spot, they would be injured by the powerful force, even coughing up blood.

Qin Ming was unharmed, his figure leaping close to his target.

The burly Mountain Patrol felt his hair stand on end. This person was coming for him, fierce as a giant beast from the mountains, the gleaming blade flashing as it slashed at him upon landing.

He immediately swung his saber to counter, wanting to exchange blows, but in an instant, he felt like he could no longer grip the hilt. The force of the blow was too great.

In two brief and rapid collisions, the soft flesh between his fingers was torn, blood flowing freely, staining the hilt red, leaving him unable to hold the saber.

Pfft! Under the glow of the Fire Spring, a bright blade flashed, and his head was chopped off, his body falling to the ground with a thud.

Qin Ming turned abruptly, using the iron spear to block Fu Entao's long saber, then looked at Feng Yi'an and Shao Chengfeng with murderous intent.

The two behind him panicked. Usually, they were ruthless characters, with the hearts of jackals, insidious and venomous with their methods, but this young man was too savage, killing people without a word, making them feel a chill.

A shadow also appeared in Fu Entao's heart. This Second New Life youth was putting a lot of pressure on him, each spear and saber strike numbing his arm slightly.

At this moment, he really wanted to leave, to escape into the dark depths of the mountains, but he was afraid of leaving his back to the opponent after retreating, and suffering a fatal series of attacks.

Qin Ming spoke, "There are a total of seven heads to be taken at the mountain stronghold, and now four have been taken, leaving only you three."

Fu Entao was stunned, and then his face turned gloomy. This young man was counting the Golden Mastiff, the Snow Ape, and the five of them together, treating them as equals to two beasts? Shao Chengfeng and Feng Yi'an each tightened their grips on their iron spears and long sabers. If anyone dared to belittle them like this on a normal day, they would simply not know how to write the word 'death'.

Qin Ming just wanted to provoke their anger, because he felt that the three of them were afraid of fighting and probably had the idea of running away. He was afraid he couldn't catch up with the Second New Life Fu Entao.

Sure enough, the shadow that had just appeared in Fu Entao's heart was stimulated and dissipated. In this area, even the veteran leaders of other Mountain Patrol Groups wouldn't dare to humiliate him like this.

Fu Entao had accumulated so much over the years, hoping to go to the next level, and was already close to touching the threshold.

"Is he Qin Ming from Double Tree Village?" Fu Entao asked the two behind him.

Previously, when they were talking about the Blood Bamboo Forest, Feng Yi'an and Shao Chengfeng had both mentioned Qin Ming, wanting to use this young man with the Golden Foundation to explore the way and get rid of him in the process.

"It's him," the bearded Feng Yi'an nodded.

After Fu Entao nodded, he said coldly, "Okay, then we'll wash Double Tree Village in blood, leaving no one alive, men, women, old, and young. In this special period, after the Mountain Sweeping Operation begins, it's normal for an unexpected 'Famous Beast' to emerge from the deep mountains and slaughter the village."

The smile he revealed was very cold, as if carrying a bloody smell, and he slowly raised his long saber.

Qin Ming was not provoked. He just wanted to stir up the other party's emotions, so that they wouldn't lose the courage to fight and run away in a short time.

He added fuel to the fire, saying, "Was I wrong about what I said about you? Red Haze City pays you high salaries, and the villagers also respect you, willing to reduce the production of Fire Fields to help the Mountain Patrol Group plant Black Moon. What have you done? Draining the pond to catch the fish, sucking the marrow from the bones, wishing you could eat all the spirituality in the Fire Spring in one bite, regardless of how many people will starve to death in the coming year's famine, and even killing innocent villagers at will to threaten and deter. In your eyes, those lives are not even as good as a roe deer, let alone your raised Golden Mastiff. Do you still have human hearts and humanity? Is it wrong to put you on par with vicious dogs and Snow Apes? You are far more harmful than them. Think about the deceased old leader of the Mountain Patrol Group, and those responsible Mountain Patrols in other groups, you are not worthy to be ranked with them at all."

Qin Ming said calmly, without excitement, without anger, not even raising his voice.

But this made the veins on Fu Entao's hand holding the saber bulge. He didn't say a word, taking the initiative to force his way over.

Even Feng Yi'an and Shao Chengfeng became murderous, wishing they could kill this young man who spoke calmly but directly stabbed at their hearts.

Qin Ming took the lead, wielding the relatively heavy iron spear with ease, the sharp spear tip stabbing out, afterimages appearing one after another, stirring up the sky full of goose feather snow. When Fu Entao tilted his head to dodge, the spear tip pierced through a Larch tree as thick as a bowl behind him. Qin Ming gripped the spear shaft and shook it slightly, and the tree trunk snapped with a crack.

Immediately, the firewood knife in his hand also slashed out.

In an instant, blades flashed between the two, the exchanges extremely dangerous. Wherever they passed, large swathes of trees fell, the destructive power astonishing.

When they fought near the Fire Spring, with a boom, a large wooden house exploded in the light of their blades.

The nearly two-meter-tall Fu Entao had originally been quite imposing, but now he was panting heavily, white mist rising from his naturally curly hair. He was alarmed, feeling extremely tired, his arms numb from the shocks, while his opponent remained so valiant.

If he hadn't been fast enough, he would surely have been defeated long ago.

He sensed that there seemed to be something wrong with his opponent's speed, and he knew his own advantage. At this moment, he got his chance. Feng Yi'an and Shao Chengfeng, taking advantage of Qin Ming's spear thrust and blade swing, erupted with all their strength and suddenly attacked.

"Clang!"

A piercing sound of metal clashing erupted as Qin Ming used his wood-chopping knife to block Shao Chengfeng's iron spear, and quickly used the back of the blade to knock away Feng Yi'an's long saber.

At this moment, Fu Entao was like a humanoid tiger-wolf, incomparably fierce, his hair flying in the wind and snow. His eyes became extremely sharp as he gripped his long saber with both hands, hacking down one strike after another, doing everything he could.

He discovered that when Qin Ming was resisting with the iron spear in one hand, he didn't have as much strength as before, and seemed to be getting suppressed.

He shouted, "Go all out and kill him!"

Qin Ming used his wood-chopping knife to deal with the other two, while the iron spear in his left hand was suppressed by Fu Entao's continuous saber strikes, making him look to be in imminent danger.

Several times, in dangerous exchanges, he chose a mutually destructive approach, allowing Fu Entao's long saber to strike while his spear tip continued to thrust forward, forcing his opponent to retreat.

Fu Entao revealed a cruel smile. Who was he afraid of when it came to being ruthless? He suddenly leaped forward, only caring about avoiding vital points in his upper body, and swung his gleaming long saber down at Qin Ming.

At the same time, a grim smile also appeared on the faces of Feng Yi'an and Shao Chengfeng. They coordinated perfectly, blocking all of Qin Ming's escape routes, their long saber and iron spear rising together, so that Qin Ming could only use the wood-chopping knife in his hand to parry their attacks.

Qin Ming couldn't retreat, and didn't have time to dodge Fu Entao's long saber in front of him. At this moment, he didn't hesitate at all, choosing to accelerate forward. There was no time to raise the long spear high; the trajectory of the spear tip didn't change, and with a pu sound, it pierced into Fu Entao's thigh, completely penetrating it.

Although Fu Entao's face twitched, he became even more ruthless. He was only injured in the leg in this exchange of injuries for injuries, while the long saber he slashed down in mid-air could split his opponent in two.

At the critical moment, Qin Ming's wood-chopping knife in his right hand was still dealing with the other two. He abandoned the iron spear and raised his left arm to withstand the sharp long saber.

Fu Entao sneered disdainfully, thinking that he would cut off his arm along with the person.

Feng Yi'an and Shao Chengfeng also laughed. No one knew better than them how terrifying the group leader's saber strike from a height of two meters was. They seemed to already see the bloody scene.

However, with a clang, a trembling sound was emitted, accompanied by a very harsh metallic friction sound. Things were completely different from what they had imagined.

The clothes on Qin Ming's arm shattered, revealing the armor exclusive to the Mountain Patrol members, and he was wearing more than one layer.

Although this kind of armor was not as sophisticated as that of the group leader Fu Entao, Qin Ming had three layers of it, which was enough to block this saber strike.

If he hadn't thought it was too bulky, Qin Ming might have worn all the armor of the four people he had killed down the mountain.

With a thud, Fu Entao staggered after landing from mid-air. His thigh was pierced, and the iron spear had not been pulled out yet. Blood was gushing out, and he couldn't stand steadily.

Feng Yi'an turned around and left without the slightest hesitation, quite decisively. He knew that the entire Mountain Patrol Group was probably going to be wiped out.

Shao Chengfeng also realized that the young man's previous decline was just a deliberate act. He also immediately fled.

Qin Ming picked up an iron spear from the ground, leaped up, and threw it with force in mid-air. At such a close distance, he could be said to be unerring. The iron spear flew out at extreme speed, from top to bottom, and with a pu sound, it pierced through Feng Yi'an's back, pinning him to the ground!

"Ah..." He cried out in pain, unable to die for a while, struggling in place.

The moment Qin Ming landed, he chased after the other person. His speed was slightly inferior to Fu Entao's, but it was too easy to catch up with Shao Chengfeng.

Shao Chengfeng couldn't possibly wait for death. He turned around and wielded his iron spear to resist fiercely, but it was futile. Qin Ming chopped off his right arm with a blade.

The iron spear also fell to the ground, and Qin Ming picked it up. Then, he mercilessly pinned Shao Chengfeng to the spot with the spear, instantly staining the area with blood.

Qin Ming stood in the arena and said, "If none of you had tried to escape and instead fought to the death here, I think I would have dealt with you all long ago. During the process, I had to divide my attention, fearing that one of you might escape. Even if one of you got away, it would mean the failure of my operation."

"You..." Fu Entao used his long saber as a crutch, almost spitting out a mouthful of blood in anger, believing that he was talking nonsense.

"Fighting you with blades, I was indeed struggling while distracted, but I haven't been a New Life for long, which is understandable." Qin Ming reviewed the battle process.

"What?!" Fu Entao's expression froze, his heart trembling. He didn't believe that the other party had just become a New Life, and he couldn't accept this fact.

"You really haven't had a Second New Life yet." Feng Yi'an spat out a mouthful of bloody foam, laughing miserably. He knew it was completely over, having encountered such an unbelievable monster.
