Strange And Troubled Times: Eternal Life Begins From Marrying A Wife

Chapter 55: Iron Shirt

"Swish, swish!"

Skeletal Anomaly didn't give Second-in-Command any reaction time.

Carrying a huge stone axe, it charged towards Second-in-Command.

Second-in-Command also bravely confronted it.

After a fierce battle that lasted for about ten minutes, Second-in-Command finally managed to repel Skeletal Anomaly.

Although he managed to repel Skeletal Anomaly, Second-in-Command couldn't feel happy at all.

Because he only had three bandits left by his side.

In the previous battle, a total of five people died at the hands of Skeletal Anomaly.

Even Fourth-in-Command died here.

"Damn, what the hell is going on!"

Second-in-Command's face turned extremely ugly.

He fully understood why they had encountered Anomalies one after another in the camp.

But fortunately, after repelling Skeletal Anomaly, no other Anomalies appeared.

Early the next morning.

Second-in-Command hurriedly took the remaining three bandits and rushed into Soft Wind Mountain.

"Captain Qin, are you going on a patrol on the mountain today?"

Liu Cheng also came to Qin Feng with a smile.

"Yes, I rested yesterday!"

"Today is a good day for a mountain patrol!"

Qin Feng nodded slightly.

Upon hearing that Qin Feng was going up the mountain, Liu Cheng breathed a sigh of relief.

He exchanged a few pleasantries before hurriedly leaving.

Qin Feng also tidied up and entered Soft Wind Mountain with a few guards.

"You are free to move around!"

Qin Feng waved his hand.

"Yes, sir!"

The guards quickly disappeared from Qin Feng's sight.

Qin Feng also found an open space and silently practiced the Wind Chasing Steps.

After more than half an hour, Qin Feng looked towards the east of the forest.

There, he sensed a familiar aura.

"Since you're here, there's no need to hide!"

Qin Feng spoke up.

"Hahaha, you're quite skilled!"

With bursts of laughter, Second-in-Command of Black Wind Bandit walked out of the forest with three bandits.

"Who are you, and why are you appearing in the medicinal herb gathering area of my Eternal Peace Medicine Manor?"

Qin Feng looked at Second-in-Command and asked slowly.

Second-in-Command looked at Qin Feng, his gaze filled with anger, and pointed at Qin Feng, shouting, "So you killed my third brother and still ask who I am?"

"So you're Second-in-Command of Black Wind Bandit!"

"Nice to meet you!"

Qin Feng bowed slightly to Second-in-Command and said, "I wonder if Second-in-Command is satisfied with yesterday's Anomaly?"

Second-in-Command was initially stunned, but then his face filled with anger. He pointed at Qin Feng and shouted, "So you were the one who attracted the Anomaly yesterday?"

"That's right!"

Qin Feng nodded slightly before saying, "Unfortunately, they were only two low-level Anomalies."

"How dare you!"

Second-in-Command raised his long sword and quickly charged towards Qin Feng.

He knew that Qin Feng was a skilled archer.

He had to get close as soon as possible in order to kill Qin Feng.

At the same time, the remaining three bandits also rushed towards Qin Feng with their weapons.

"Swish!"

Qin Feng used the Wind Chasing Steps and instantly dodged Second-in-Command's attack.

At the same time, he circled behind Second-in-Command and swung his long knife towards him.

"Iron Shirt!"

Second-in-Command shouted loudly, and his body immediately emitted black light.

Second-in-Command's swordsmanship was not his most powerful move.

His most powerful move was the Iron Shirt.

Second-in-Command had been practicing the Iron Shirt for over thirty years, and ordinary swords and knives couldn't harm him at all.

So Second-in-Command didn't pay any attention to Qin Feng's long knife.

In Second-in-Command's eyes, Qin Feng's long knife couldn't harm him at all.

He could take advantage of Qin Feng's momentary distraction and kill him here.

"Crack!"

With a light sound, Second-in-Command felt a chill around his waist.

His whole body suddenly became much shorter.

He quickly lowered his head to look.

Soon, Second-in-Command realized that his lower body had disappeared.

"Ah!"

"How could you break my Iron Shirt!"

Second-in-Command's eyes were filled with confusion.

He couldn't understand how his Iron Shirt could be easily broken by Qin Feng.

Suddenly!

The second-in-command's heart trembled.

Only a Martial Artist of Seventh Grade or higher could easily break his Iron Shirt.

Could it be that this inconspicuous young man in front of him is already a Seventh Grade Blood Refining Realm Martial Artist?

"You are a Seventh Grade Martial Artist!" the second-in-command pointed at Qin Feng and said.

Qin Feng did not answer the second-in-command's words. He swung his long knife forward.

"Thud!"

The second-in-command's head fell to the ground.

"The second-in-command is dead!"

"Everyone, run!"

"This person is a Seventh Grade expert!"

...

Three bandits saw Qin Feng easily kill the second-in-command.

They quickly turned around and fled into the distance.

The second-in-command was no match for Qin Feng.

Naturally, they couldn't be Qin Feng's opponents either.

Qin Feng glanced at the three fleeing bandits and swung his long knife forward.

"Swish, swish, swish!"

Three Saber Qi flew towards the three bandits.

Shortly after, the three fleeing bandits were directly killed there.

Qin Feng came to the body of the second-in-command and carefully searched it.

Shortly after, an Iron Shirt and a few taels of silver appeared in Qin Feng's hands.

"Iron Shirt?" Qin Feng looked at it for a moment, then put it into his bosom.

He planned to study the Iron Shirt after returning to Eternal Peace Medicine Manor.

Qin Feng took out a water bottle from his body.

The bottle was filled with fresh pig blood.

As long as the pig blood was poured here, the Caged Lantern Anomaly would come to help clean up the bodies soon after.

In the evening.

Qin Feng appeared in the camp with several guards.

"Captain Qin, why have you come back?" Liu Cheng's face was full of astonishment when he saw Qin Feng.

"Liu Manager, it's getting late. Shouldn't I come back?" Qin Feng smiled and asked Liu Cheng.

"I... I didn't mean that!" Liu Cheng stammered and quickly left.

"What's going on?"

"Why hasn't the second-in-command returned?"

"Could it be that he encountered a powerful Anomaly on Soft Wind Mountain?"

Liu Cheng pondered with a thoughtful look in his eyes.

He never expected that Qin Feng would be able to kill the second-in-command.

After all, the second-in-command was an Eight Grade Blood Refining Realm Martial Artist.

Even if Qin Feng's strength was strong, he couldn't possibly be stronger than the second-in-command.

Only if he encountered a powerful Anomaly on Soft Wind Mountain.

Would the second-in-command have an accident.

Two days later, the group set off on the return journey.

There were no unexpected incidents along the way.

The medicinal herb team returned to Eternal Peace Medicine Manor very smoothly.

"Master, come in quickly!" Hu Qingya saw Qin Feng return and was very excited. She quickly took Qin Feng's clothes and packages.

"Master, let me massage your shoulders!" Hu Qingya said as she massaged Qin Feng's shoulders.

Qin Feng sat in a chair, took out the Iron Shirt, and carefully examined it.

This Iron Shirt was a horizontal refining technique.

Once it reached Great Accomplishment, even some divine weapons would find it difficult to cause any harm.

Arrows were even more useless.

"I estimate that the second-in-command of Black Wind Stronghold has only cultivated to Basic Accomplishment!" Qin Feng quickly concluded that the second-in-command of Black Wind Stronghold had at most cultivated to Basic Accomplishment.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have been so easily killed by Qin Feng.

"Master, my father came this morning!" Hu Qingya suddenly spoke up.

"What did your father want?" Qin Feng put down the book in his hand.

"Dad didn't say anything. He went back when he saw you weren't here!" Hu Qingya shook her head slightly.

"Knock, knock, knock!"

At this moment, there was a knock on the door.

"Who is it?" Hu Qingya looked towards the door.

"Qingya, it's me!" Hu Qingfu's voice came from outside the door.
