The Lord of Glimmer plants the sun in the eternal night.

The snow in the forest suddenly burst open, and Shadow, controlling the large black spear, unleashed a five-strike lightning whip, like streaks of black lightning intertwining in the night.

However, since the shadow lacked self-awareness and could not control where the spear tip attacked, two of the whips still struck Cheng Yi, injuring him.

This completely stunned Cheng Yi. Who exactly was this faceless man in front of him? How could he have been lying in ambush here?

He endured the pain to stay conscious.

Judging from the force with which the opponent wielded the gun, this opponent might not be in the combat ranks, or their level might be low; they might not be the kind of person who is difficult to deal with.

So he drew his short sword and charged forward. He absolutely could not retreat now and could not give the enemy a chance to pursue him.

But clearly, he was stunned by the attack and his mind was not so clear.

Since the other side is not strong enough, yet dares to ambush here, they must have other helpers.

By the time he realized something was wrong, it was too late. Two iron arrows came flying from the sky at incredible speed, and before he could react, they pierced his body.

He wouldn't die immediately, but the spiked arrows were causing him great pain.

Cheng Yi stood rooted to the spot, sword in hand, gazing at the enemy whose direction was unknown, and said:

"People are indeed different. We only want to intercept snakes, but you want to intercept people."

In the pitch-black forest, only two arrows answered him once more.

Cheng Yi could only die in despair and pain, and Jiang Chuan and Old Man Liu also appeared at this time.

"Little Jiang, your archery skills are pretty good! I thought you were just carrying that for show!" Grandpa Liu teased, then added excitedly.

"Can we slip away now? We've made a big enough haul."

"Let's go find Wang Anquan first."

Jiang Chuan clearly didn't want to leave like this; Qin Kexing had to be defeated here as well.

...

At the mouth of the valley, Qin Kexing unsurprisingly killed the Blood Serpent.

He was not arrogant; his strength was indeed formidable.

Otherwise, how could he dare to patrol such a large mountain area with only five people?

At this moment, Peng Sheng, along with the few surviving patrolmen, turned back and fled back to the outside of the valley.

He judged that the blood snake was exhausted and, even if it didn't freeze to death in the icy wilderness, it might move slowly.

So he chased back and happened to see Qin Kexing slaying the blood snake outside the valley.

The scene fell silent. Peng Sheng and the others hadn't expected Qin Kexing to appear here and succeed. It seemed that this guy's sequence level had increased again.

Qin Ke threw the blood snake on the ground, looked at the people opposite him, and walked over with his knife.

Peng Sheng was immediately startled, and he quickly shouted:

"Team Leader Qin, we mean no harm. We'll leave immediately. This area is under your jurisdiction, and Blood Serpent is yours!"

As he spoke, he led his men back. This guy must be crazy. The stronghold has been buried. It's better not to mess with him.

The main problem is that we can't beat them. If it really comes down to a bloody battle, they might be the ones who die.

These patrolmen knew Qin Kexing's prowess, so they had already drawn their bows and nocked arrows, aimed them at the front, and accelerated their retreat.

Qin Kexing felt a tightness in his chest. The day before yesterday, he had cleared away the strange creatures and fought off the one-eyed giant deer, which had ultimately injured his body, and he was feeling very unwell.

Finally, he took a deep breath, nodded, and let them leave.

He rested for a while until the discomfort subsided, and then immediately set off to chase after Wang Anquan in the direction he had fled.

That guy's strength is not bad either; he's even stronger than Jiang Liu.

The others in the group are probably no match for them.

Although snowflakes were falling from the sky, they could not immediately cover the footprints. He sped along and soon heard screams.

Instantly, his blood boiled, and he was filled with fury.

The patrol team couldn't afford any more casualties, so he suddenly accelerated and rushed over.

As expected, Wang Anquan showed no regard for his colleagues and killed all those who came to kill him.

When Qin Kexing arrived, Wang Anquan was holding the last seriously injured man in one hand. Upon seeing Qin Kexing, he casually crushed him to death and threw him into the snow.

"You deserve to die!"

He charged straight at Wang Quan'an.

Then, he let out a muffled groan and fell to the ground in the snow.

His right foot was pierced by an iron spear hidden in the snow, dripping with blood. The sharp spearhead, stained with blood, had completely pierced through the instep, making it look quite horrifying.

In fact, Wang Anquan had already dealt with several people, leaving the last one behind to ask him some questions.

But Jiang Chuan and the others arrived just in time, saying that Qin Kexing was about to kill Xue Se.

Therefore, Wang Anquan followed the old cunning man's plan and pre-planned to bury weapons, including iron spears, greatswords, and long knives, in an area where branches blocked the road.

The only easy section to walk on was cleared by the group themselves after breaking off nearby branches that were blocking the way.

However, burying weapons in the snow and getting your opponent hit also requires luck.

The main reason was to prevent being defeated by Qin Kexing and to make it easier to escape.

But unexpectedly, Qin Kexing won the prize right at the beginning.

Wang Quan stepped back, making a move as if he wanted to run away.

"ah...."

After Qin Kexing's foot was pierced, he was unable to move easily. Even though he was strong enough to endure the pain and leap, he ultimately felt he could not maintain his original state, making it difficult to catch up with Wang Anquan, who had not suffered much damage.

Unexpectedly, someone in the darkness was even shooting arrows at them.

The force was terrifying, as if it were some kind of ancient grudge against him.

He didn't last long before he was shot by an arrow.

At this point, Wang Anquan stopped running and began to return to confront and maneuver against him.

Every now and then, a cold arrow would be shot out from behind him. Qin Kexing had never been so tricked before, but even though he was hit by several arrows, he did not think of running away.

He launched a fierce counterattack against Wang Anquan, but having been injured several times, he was still willing but unable to exert his full strength.

With a thud, his left thigh was pierced, the iron spear was still in its place, and blood was gushing out. He could no longer stand.

"Hey, he can't move. Are you going to kill him yourself?"

"If he hadn't provoked Blood Bear, your brother might not have died."

Wang Quan stood in the middle of the room and spoke.

Qin Kexing frowned, but as Jiang Chuan emerged from the dark woods, he was incredulous.

"You're Jiang Chuan from Snow Eagle Ridge...?!"

He had seen the boy once, and at that time he sent Fang's dog to hunt him down. Whether it was luck or something else, the boy survived.

At the time, he didn't care much. If it didn't work the first time, he could always go to Snow Eagle Ridge when he had time.

Unexpectedly, so many things have happened in the past two days that he is completely overwhelmed.

Jiang Chuan remained silent, then aimed his bow and arrow directly at him, shooting straight through his skull.

At this point, the entire patrol team was wiped out.

"Heh, he may be dead, but we're still left to clean up the mess he left behind."

"The Blood Bear and the One-Eyed Giant Deer are still roaming the outskirts of the mountains. Since the patrol team only has two outposts left, we might as well merge them and move to your place."

Wang Anquan patted Jiang Chuan on the shoulder, winked, and said.

Upon hearing this, Old Liu's eyes widened as he looked at the fellow named Wang Anquan, knowing that he must have seen the configuration of Snow Eagle Ridge.

They really are always mindful of their own safety.

Good heavens, so that's what they were waiting for.

Jiang Chuan smiled helplessly.

"Okay, I'll go back and discuss it with Ye Xuan."
