Mountain Bandits

Sunlight streamed through the car window, falling on Ye Bingxue, while the branches of the trees along the road seemed to be waving to her.

Ye Bingxue was feeling down.

Sitting in the car, she kept glancing out the window at the familiar scenery that was gradually receding into the distance, her heart filled with melancholy.

This is the first time in my life I've been away from home. The streets that were once so familiar and the warm home are now disappearing from my sight little by little.

She didn't know when she would be able to see her father again, and the thought made her eyes redden slightly.

Those moments spent with my father flashed through my mind like scenes from a movie.

Her mother's gentle admonitions and her father's steady encouragement filled her heart with endless reluctance to part.

However, the next moment, Ye Bingxue's mood improved again.

Xu Hua Qiang personally escorted her to Yunzhou University to register, which made her extremely happy.

Moreover, Hua Qiang will stay there with her for a few days until she has settled into university life before leaving.

The thought of Hua Qiang being by her side filled her with a sense of security.

The vehicle sped along the road, passing through areas inhabited by Mutant Beasts.

Despite the incessant roars of the Mutant Beasts, Ye Bingxue felt no fear.

In the past, hearing such voices might have terrified her, but now, with Hua Qiang by her side, she feels confident.

Instead, a feeling of elation rose within her. She even thought about getting out of the car and wreaking havoc, showing off her courage and strength to Bi Hua Qiang.

In a narrow valley with steep mountains, a convoy is slowly moving forward.

Here, towering cliffs rise on both sides, shrouded in mist, and sunlight struggles to filter through narrow gaps, creating a sense of oppression and unease.

Suddenly, shouts of battle shattered the tranquility of the valley.

A Mountain Bandits emerged from their hiding place like hungry wolves and instantly surrounded the convoy.

The Mountain Bandits all had ferocious faces, held sharp blades, and their eyes gleamed with greed and ruthlessness.

Their leader, riding a tall black horse, brandished a large sword and shouted for the caravan to hand over its valuables.

Upon seeing this, the convoy's guards immediately drew their weapons and stood ready for battle.

Although there were few of them, none of them were intimidated.

After a brief standoff, the two sides engaged in a fierce battle.

In an instant, the glint of swords flashed in the valley, and shouts of battle echoed between the cliffs.

However, the Mountain Bandits, being numerous and powerful, and skilled in battle, gradually gained the upper hand.

Despite the guards' fierce resistance, they were ultimately outnumbered.

During the battle, a guard was slashed by Mountain Bandits's broadsword, and blood gushed out. However, he still gripped his weapon tightly and tried to continue fighting, but eventually he fell to the ground.

The other guards were also injured and gradually lost their fighting ability.

In the end, the caravan's guards suffered a crushing defeat. The Mountain Bandits cheered and began to ransack the caravan's belongings.

The people in the convoy were terrified, watching helplessly as their belongings were robbed.

Brother, there are so many people gathered together in front of us, it seems like something's happened.

Hua Qiang, supporting Fang Bipan, looked ahead with a smile on his face.

A Mountain Bandits were robbing passing merchants.

Oh no, there are bandits! What should we do? Should we take a detour?

This was the first time Ye Bingxue had encountered such a situation, and she couldn't help but feel a little flustered. She even forgot that she was a powerful Martial Artists.

Hehe, since there are Mountain Bandits, let's go join the fun!

Hua Qiang stepped on the gas and instead of retreating, accelerated forward.

The bandits, having just finished robbing a group of people, suddenly saw a car driving towards them and immediately became excited again. This was like a delivery to their doorstep!

The Mountain Bandits quickly set up a roadblock, brandishing their weapons and shouting menacingly at Hua Qiang's car, "Stop the car, hand over your money, or we'll spare your life!"

The car slowly came to a stop. Hua Qiang, with an arrogant and unruly smile on his lips, pushed open the car door and calmly stepped out.

Ye Bingxue followed closely behind, feeling flustered but still somewhat nervous.

The Mountain Bandits leader shouted menacingly, "Boy, if you know what's good for you, hand over all your money and treasures, and I'll spare your life!"

Hua Qiang, however, seemed to have heard a huge joke, and shook his head slightly, saying, "With you guys?"

Having said that, he dashed out like lightning.

Before the Mountain Bandits could react, Hua Qiang had already approached and unleashed a punch, sending the Mountain Bandits flying several meters away, horse and all.

Seeing this, the other Mountain Bandits roared and pounced on them.

Hua Qiang moved with agility, dodging left and right, and with each strike, a Mountain Bandits fell down with a scream.

Ye Bingxue, watching from the sidelines, was filled with excitement. She clenched her fist and rushed over to join the battle.

Before long, the ground was littered with Mountain Bandits lying haphazardly.

Hua Qiang clapped his hands, as if he had only done something insignificant.

He turned to Ye Bingxue and said, "Let's go, let's continue our journey."

Ye Bingxue shook her little fist, looking like she hadn't had enough.

Hua Qiang shook his head, thinking to himself, "This girl is a violent one too. I'll have to be careful in the future and not offend her, or she'll beat me up."

"Stop right there! You think you can just leave after hitting one of my Man Niu?"

A loud shout suddenly rang out.

A man over ten feet tall and with a robust physique burst out of the deep forest beside them like a tiger emerging from the woods.

The Man Niu stood in front of Hua Qiang, clutching a thick iron rod as thick as an arm.

The heavy iron rod felt as light as nothing in his hands.

The Man Niu slammed the iron rod into the ground with a loud thud, making the ground tremble slightly.

"Kid, you've got some nerve! You dare hit someone from my Man Niu gang? You're not leaving here without a fight today!"

After saying that, Man Niu swung the iron rod in his hand and charged towards Hua Qiang like a violent whirlwind.

Hua Qiang almost burst out laughing; this line was a bit silly!

Judging from his appearance, he doesn't seem to be very bright. Besides fighting, he probably doesn't know anything else.

How did you end up becoming a bandit?

This is a highly technical job; can he do it?

Faced with the Man Niu's attack, Hua Qiang did not use his combat skills, nor did he even draw his knife. He simply relied on his physical strength and instinct to fight the big man.

In Hua Qiang's view, this big man only had the cultivation of the Martial Master Realm. If he were to use combat techniques, it would be too much of a bully.

After all, Hua Qiang's strength far surpasses that of Man Niu, and he has his own pride and principles.

At this moment, sunlight filtered through the gaps in the leaves, illuminating the two men and their tense and fierce battle scene.

The Man Niu swung its iron rod with tremendous force, each attack carrying immense power, as if it could tear the air apart.

Meanwhile, Chu Hua Qiang skillfully dodged the Man Niu's attacks. His movements were as nimble as a cheetah, and each dodge was perfectly timed, causing the Man Niu's attacks to miss completely.

As the fight went on, Man Niu sensed something was wrong, jumped out of the circle, pointed at Hua Qiang, and said, "You have no martial ethics!"

Hua Qiang:???
