Chapter 124 We'll take the credit for killing the Boss

Zhang Xiaoyu answered truthfully, "He is the second-in-command of the bandits."

Lin Feng frowned. "You know her?"

Zhang Xiaoyu nodded, then shook her head. "She had the chance to kill me, but she didn't. I guess you could say she spared my life."

Lin Feng said, "That woman is no good. Don't be fooled by her appearance."

Zhang Xiaoyu nodded. "I know what I'm doing."

"That's good."

Just as the two finished speaking, laughter from the second-in-command, Yun Mengwu, echoed from the depths of the passage.

"Heh, Ninth Master, talking behind people's backs isn't the act of a real man, is it?"

"Hahaha." Lin Feng laughed and said, "I didn't mean to talk badly about you behind your back."

It's just that when I wanted to yell at you, you happened to be out of the way.

Now that you're here, I'll say it again.

You're no good woman.

Lin Feng grinned and said, "This doesn't count as talking bad about you behind your back, does it? If you've got the guts, come and fight me."

"Hmph!" Yun Mengwu, the second-in-command, was angry, but she didn't dare to show herself.

In the cramped environment of the tunnel, she was even more wary of Lin Feng's hidden weapons.

Yun Mengwu's voice paused for a moment before continuing, "You have six months left. Take care of yourself."

The words were spoken, and the sound seemed to have faded into the distance.

Clearly, she had already gone far away.

"Who has six months left? What does that mean?" Lin Feng was a little confused.

He looked at Zhang Xiaoyu and asked, "She's not talking about you, is she?"

Zhang Xiaoyu nodded. "She was talking about me. The Bloodthirsty Demon Art either advances or regresses."

Without a complete cultivation method, sooner or later they will be devoured by the demonic power and become monsters who only know how to suck blood.

I'm probably still about six months away from losing control.

Lin Feng suddenly realized, "That means I must obtain the second level of the Bloodthirsty Demon Art within six months."

Zhang Xiaoyu nodded again, "If we obtain the second level of the Bloodthirsty Demon Art, we can delay things for a few more years."

Lin Feng paced back and forth in the tunnel, pondering how to solve this problem.

He somewhat regretted letting Zhang Xiaoyu practice the Bloodthirsty Demon Art.

After walking for a while, Lin Feng stopped and whispered in Zhang Xiaoyu's ear, "Let's try our best to find the remaining techniques of the Bloodthirsty Demon Art."

If you can't find it, try to get it from that girl. If all else fails, go to the Demon Sect.

After all, life is the most important thing.

Zhang Xiaoyu suddenly looked up; he hadn't expected Lin Feng to suggest he go to the Demonic Sect.

"I've gone to the Demonic Sect, so we'll be on opposing sides now."

"What hostile state? What are you thinking?"

Once you're there, we can keep each other informed, and maybe you can even achieve more merits.

There is no inherent good or evil in the universe; the distinction between good and evil is man-made and has nothing to do with us.

Only by staying alive can there be endless possibilities.

Zhang Xiaoyu suddenly realized that Lin Feng was thinking that way, and it seemed that she had been overthinking things.

Zhang Xiaoyu felt a huge weight lifted from his heart; he no longer had to choose between survival and betrayal.

Lin Feng used his knife to cut the teeth marks on the neck of the gang leader Tao Xingye so badly that they were no longer visible, and then stabbed Tao Xingye twice more in the original knife wound.

Finally, Lin Feng chopped off the head of the gang leader, Tao Xingye, and threw it to Zhang Xiaoyu.

"After the battle, we'll say we encountered the dying leader in the tunnel and then cut off his head."

"We'll take the credit for killing the leader."

"But he was killed by the second-in-command."

"Does the second-in-command dare to say that he killed the first-in-command?"

Ignore her, we'll take the credit.

"Ok."

By the time the two emerged from the tunnel, the battle was nearing its end.

"Be careful, I'm going out to loot some more," Lin Feng instructed before parting ways with Zhang Xiaoyu.

He first found the dry well and took out a package containing a million taels of silver notes and a secret manual.

Luckily, no one discovered it. If someone had taken it, I would have had nowhere to cry.

Lin Feng put the two packages into his storage space and continued to plunder the city. The battle would be over soon, and he wouldn't have another chance to plunder.

He targeted shops in the city, stuffing all the silver notes, loose silver, and copper coins he could find into his storage space.

Then he started touching the corpse again.

They specifically target the leader's trusted men and the outer disciples of the demonic sect.

He touched half a cubic meter of silver and copper coins alone.

Thanks to the storage space, otherwise all that money would have been wasted.

After looting most of the loot, Lin Feng went back to find Zhang Xiaoyu and the others.

Zhang Xiaoyu was still waiting for him in the same spot.

After meeting, the two went to find other people together.

Sun Yu, Zhou Haitao, Lin Hu, and others remained in the same area and did not dare to go too far.

They were far from the city center and didn't encounter many venomous snakes.

Seeing that everyone was alright, Lin Feng smiled.

This undercover mission paid off; I made many contributions and even acquired a lot of valuables.

He took Zhang Xiaoyu to Hong Baichuan to curry favor.

Along the way, we saw many Iron Sword Army soldiers who were either wounded or killed in battle.

Most of these people were injured by venomous snakes.

It seems the Iron Sword Army suffered considerable casualties.

Hong Baichuan sat on a chair next to the small square, his face looking rather grim.

Lin Feng led Zhang Xiaoyu over and presented the head of the bandit leader, Tao Xingye. "General, my brother and I happened to encounter the dying bandit leader in the tunnel and cut off his head."

Hong Baichuan saw the head of the gang leader Tao Xingye and finally smiled. "Tao Xingye, Tao Xingye, you still died before me in the end, hahaha."

It's clear that Hong Baichuan and Tao Xingye have a deep-seated grudge.

Hong Baichuan patted Lin Feng on the shoulder, then looked at Zhang Xiaoyu, "I've remembered your contributions, brothers. Consider this a favor I owe you."

Lin Feng quickly clasped his hands and said, "This is all within my duty. How could I let the general owe us a favor?"

"There's no need to say more about this. If you encounter any problems that you can't solve, just come to me."

Zheng Tiejun and Zhao Youcai happened to witness this scene.

Both of them looked rather pale; they had expended considerable effort to kill quite a few bandits.

The two of them thought they had earned a lot of credit.

Unexpectedly, Lin Feng actually killed the bandit leader.

This is a great achievement.

Lin Feng did not claim credit from Zheng Tiejun because he was afraid that Zheng Tiejun would take credit for the work.

If Zheng Tiejun were to swallow his pride and try to share the credit, there was really nothing his subordinate could do.

However, it's not wrong for Lin Feng to take credit from Hong Baichuan.

Hong Baichuan was the supreme commander of this encirclement and suppression operation, and even Zheng Tiejun had to act according to Hong Baichuan's wishes.

A soldier from the Iron Sword Army ran up to Hong Baichuan, clasped his hands in greeting, and said, "General, the battle casualty statistics are in. We lost 516 brothers, lost over 100 brothers, and lost over 800 brothers."

Zheng Tiejun frowned. The casualties this time were greater than he had imagined, but it was still acceptable.

"Hurry up and treat the wounded brothers, and clean up the battlefield as soon as possible."

Lin Feng estimated that he would have to spend the night in the city.

Zheng Tiejun gathered all the guards in hemp clothing together to help clean up the battlefield.

While cleaning up the battlefield, Lin Feng also managed to gain some benefits.

Lin Feng estimated that he should head back in the next day or two.

Once we get back, it will be time to reward those who have made contributions.

With so many merits I've made, I shouldn't be able to escape the position of General of the Hemp-Clad Guard, right?
