Rebirth starts with many children and good fortune

Cheng Feng held the Copper Statue Skill manual and the silver, the corners of his mouth lifting in a slight, smug smile. He secretly rejoiced in his heart, feeling that this operation had been a great success. Without hesitation, he led his men away from the place. They carefully moved the boulder back into place, as if nothing had happened. Then, they quickly departed, heading towards the Black Wind Stronghold's main hall.

When they finally arrived at the Black Wind Stronghold's main hall, the scene before them shocked everyone—the entire hall had become a chaotic battlefield!

Black-robed evil soldiers wielded weapons, engaging in fierce combat with the crowd. These evil soldiers had bodies as hard as steel, impervious to blades and spears, making it difficult to harm them. Although the crowd fought bravely, they still felt overwhelmed in the face of such powerful enemies.

In this chaos, the only one who could contend with the black-robed evil soldiers was the county lieutenant, who was at the Bone Refinement realm! He wielded a long spear, maneuvering around the black-robed evil soldiers, every move filled with bloody energy. But even he faced immense pressure.

"Damn it, why is this guy so difficult to deal with?" the county lieutenant cursed inwardly. He knew that the only reason he could match the black-robed evil soldier was because of his deep foundation.

Every time he clashed with the black-robed evil soldier, he would expend a lot of bloody energy. Moreover, the evil soldiers could quickly recover from their injuries after absorbing human blood, while he could not.

The county lieutenant understood in his heart that his trump card was his burst of power. Once he unleashed it, his strength would greatly increase, and he could pierce a large hole in the black-robed evil soldier.

In comparison, Cheng Feng mainly focused on cleaving attacks, emphasizing lethality. Therefore, the two might be evenly matched in terms of killing people, but when dealing with special existences like black-robed evil soldiers, Cheng Feng's cleaving attack method might be more advantageous.

Despite the county lieutenant's best efforts, he was still unable to stop the black-robed evil soldiers' rampage. Whenever he repelled a black-robed evil soldier, the opponent would quickly find someone nearby to absorb their blood and recover from their injuries.

In this way, the black-robed evil soldiers always maintained strong combat power, plunging the county lieutenant into a bitter battle.

Not counting normal losses, their numbers had decreased by more than half compared to when they arrived, just from the battle in the main hall! Everyone's face was filled with exhaustion and helplessness, their eyes revealing fear of the black-robed evil soldiers.

Faced with such a situation, Cheng Feng was also filled with helplessness: "I've already killed so many people, and you're still toying with these small soldiers?"

Cheng Feng looked at the jade pendant in his hand, calculating in his heart.

Bloody energy circulated within his body, and through the power of the jade pendant, he could control the speed of the evil soldiers' movements.

Cheng Feng deliberately made the evil soldiers' movements slow, as if they were extending their necks to the enemy's blade, allowing them to be slaughtered.

Cheng Feng absolutely could not let others perceive his connection with the evil soldiers. He could only make this superficial sacrifice. As for the evil soldier he killed, he had already carried its head with him, in case of emergency.

Watching the evil soldier, who had been entangled for so long, finally be pierced through the throat by his spear, falling to the ground and ceasing to move, the county lieutenant finally collapsed to the ground.

After fighting fiercely for so long, if he didn't win, he might have to die here.

The remaining bandits watched as the evil soldiers in their camp fell, preparing to find the stronghold leader to make a decision, but looking around, where was their stronghold leader's shadow?

Coming back to their senses, the bandits turned and fled. The government soldiers' morale was greatly boosted, and they took the opportunity to pursue them. The whole scene became chaotic.

In the end, after a fierce battle, most of the bandits were subdued or killed by the government soldiers. Only a few escaped during the confusion.

This sudden change instantly reversed the tense situation, and the county lieutenant's heroic performance won cheers from the government soldiers present.

Seeing the government's great victory, Cheng Feng also leisurely walked to the Hongmen's position, and after asking, he couldn't help but frown.

More than two hundred of the three hundred Hongmen outer hall disciples had died in battle, leaving only less than a hundred. He looked at these scarred and exhausted Hongmen disciples, feeling somewhat heavy-hearted, but not knowing how to comfort them.

War is inherently cruel, and life and death are unpredictable. This time he led Hongmen here, his original intention was also to select elite soldiers to enter the Human Gate.

Although he had long anticipated these deaths and injuries, even if he felt unbearable, he would not be soft-hearted because of it.

After all, he still understood the principle of "kindness does not lead soldiers."

Fortunately, Hongmen's compensation was generous enough, and with the Black Wind Stronghold's treasures, it should be able to appease the families of those who died.

Cheng Feng touched the Copper Statue Skill manual on his chest, and a new idea came to his mind. Perhaps he could take this opportunity to select a group of disciples with better physical qualities from Hongmen, teach them the Copper Statue Skill, and train them into Horizontal Training disciples.

In this way, in the future on the battlefield, these Horizontal Training disciples could become indestructible tanks, charging into battle.

After this evil soldier incident, Cheng Feng increasingly felt that this world was full of mystery and danger.

Relying solely on traditional martial arts cultivation was far from enough, and he had to arrange the Horizontal Training matters as soon as possible to give himself more security.

Wu Feng's strength was about to step into the Bone Refinement realm, and he could be said to be in the first echelon below Bone Refinement, so he naturally had no problems in this chaotic battle.

He looked at the cloth bag Cheng Feng was holding and asked curiously, "Sect Leader, what are you going to do with this?"

Cheng Feng casually replied, "This is the head of an evil soldier, my trophy."

Hearing this, Wu Feng felt a little surprised, but seeing the calm expression on Cheng Feng's face, he was embarrassed to ask more.

The disciples who followed them all exclaimed in surprise.

Some said: "Sect Leader is so powerful!"

Others said: "Sect Leader single-handedly brought back the head of an evil soldier..."

Cheng Feng coughed softly, and the surrounding disciples immediately quieted down.

Then, he ordered: "Now start cleaning up the battlefield, collect the bodies of our dead brothers, and then let's go home together."

Everyone responded in unison: "Yes, sir!" Their eyes looking at Cheng Feng were even more respectful.

People are not afraid of death, but they are afraid of dying in vain.

Hongmen's compensation system is perfect, and the handling of corpses is proper. Under such conditions, which Hongmen disciple would spare his life for Hongmen?

The county lieutenant and the people from the other forces also heard the movement from Hongmen. When they heard that Cheng Feng had killed an evil soldier alone and brought back the evil soldier's head, they came over to congratulate Cheng Feng.

Cheng Feng respectfully returned the greeting, looking at the county lieutenant and saying: "Sir, I wonder what the value of this evil soldier's head is?"

The county lieutenant smiled and said: "I will definitely not let Sect Leader Cheng suffer a loss."

Listening to the county lieutenant's promise, the faces of the people from other forces were smiling, but their hearts were cursing, their own interests would be reduced again.

But Cheng Feng's record was there, a Bone Refinement martial artist at such a young age, no one dared to speak out against him.

It is said that the Hongmen Sect Leader is also a disciple of the Iron Mountain Martial Hall?

Hall Master Wang is hiding it so well!
