Chapter 108 The Northern Frontier Journey Ends
"Oh, I'm so scared..."

Shen Qiu patted his chest in fear, then changed the subject, with a playful smile on his face, "But are you sure you want my things?"

"Stop talking nonsense, there is nothing I can't get if I set my eyes on it!" The bandit leader waved his hand impatiently, signaling his men to take action.

"Brothers, come on! Kill the men and leave the women alone!"

At the command, this group of ferocious bandits rushed up howling, waving their swords and slashing at Shen Qiu and others.

"A bunch of chickens and dogs, just wanting to die."

Hongluan snorted coldly, unsheathed the Liuyun sword in her hand, and a cold light flashed. Before the bandits who were rushing in the front could even react to what was happening, they felt a chill on their necks, blood gushed out, and fell to the ground weakly.

"what?"

The bandit leader was horrified. He never expected that this seemingly frail woman in front of him actually possessed such terrifying strength.

"Fuck you, uncle!"

Shangguan Lie roared angrily and rushed out like a cannonball. The Tiger-Power Knife in his hand turned into an afterimage and knocked to the ground the bandits who had not yet reacted.

For a moment, screams and the sound of weapons clashing echoed throughout the valley.

"Roar!"

"Chirp!"

The Shadowy Howling Moon Tiger and the Silver-Winged Sky Eagle also joined the battle. They were huge in size and powerful, and the bandits were like ants in front of them.

Every time the Shadow Howling Moon Tiger swung its claws, it could take several lives. Its black fur was covered in blood, like the god of death walking out of hell, reaping lives.

The silver-winged eagle was circling in the air, its sharp eagle eyes overlooking the entire battlefield. Once it found a fish that had escaped the net, it would swoop down, and its sharp eagle claws would easily tear the enemy's body apart like steel knives.

Watching his men falling like wheat, the bandit leader finally realized that he had hit a wall this time. The group of people in front of him were not people he could afford to mess with.

"You...who are you?"

He asked in horror, his voice trembling and no longer with the arrogance he had before.

"You don't need to know who we are. You just need to know that today is the day you die!"

After Shen Qiu finished speaking, Jiuxuannu attacked at the same time. Nine sword lights of different colors attacked the bandit leader from all directions, blocking all his retreat routes.

"No...don't kill me, I...I am willing to surrender!"

The bandit leader was terrified and knelt down to beg for mercy. However, how could Shen Qiu give him this chance?
Nine sword lights pierced through his body without any hindrance. The bandit leader opened his eyes wide, filled with fear and despair.

He never thought that he would die in this way.

The remaining surviving bandits were so frightened upon seeing this that they knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.

"Please spare us, gentlemen! We will never dare to do it again!"

"Please spare us, we are forced to do this!"

However, Shen Qiu ignored their pleas and simply said to Jiu Xuan Nu: "Don't leave any one alive."

After receiving the order, everyone killed all the remaining bandits.

After a while, the scene became quiet, with only the strong smell of blood filling the air.

……

After two days of travel, which was neither fast nor slow, Shen Qiu and his group finally arrived at the northern border.

Thinking back on what happened in the past two days, Shen Qiu couldn't help but sigh that the road in this alien world was really difficult to walk.

Along the way, they encountered two waves of robbers and were attacked by monsters at night, but they dealt with them all.

Arriving in the northern border, Shen Qiu was surprised to find that the atmosphere here was extremely solemn, there were few pedestrians on the streets, and everyone's face was filled with panic and uneasiness. "What happened here?" Shen Qiu asked curiously.

"I heard that the army of the Great Sheng Dynasty has attacked again. The war situation in the northern border is getting tense now."

An old man on the side of the road sighed, "Ah, I don't know when this war will end."

"The Great Sheng Dynasty!"

Shen Qiu touched his chin. It seemed that the northern border was really not peaceful.

The group continued to move forward and soon arrived at Luoxing City in the northern border. The name sounded bleak.

The city gate was heavily guarded, and the soldiers all had solemn expressions, obviously feeling extremely nervous because of the attack from the Dasheng Dynasty.

"This is a hell of a place!"

Shangguan Lie couldn't help but complain. He hated this kind of tense atmosphere the most. It would be better for him to go back to the fitness area on the ninth floor of Fan Building and listen to the comfortable sounds of those burly men sweating.

"Okay, stop complaining. When in Rome, do as the Romans do. Let's keep a low profile." Shen Qiu felt sorry for those civilians, but unfortunately he couldn't change anything now.

After entering the city, the streets were just as the old man had described, with few pedestrians and most shops closed. Only a few ragged beggars were seen shivering in the corners.

"Boss Shen, this place is too desolate. Are you sure we can make money?" Shangguan Lie couldn't help but started muttering again.

"Don't worry, the more chaotic the place is, the more opportunities there are." A gleam of light flashed in Shen Qiu's eyes. After all, war consumes money.

Although Luoxing City has become depressed due to the war, it is an important hub connecting the hinterland of the Dachuan Dynasty and the northern border, and some daily necessities are still in short supply.

Shen Qiu had already inquired about it. Among the goods brought this time, many were in-demand materials during wartime. As long as the operation was done properly, there would definitely be room for profit.

Not long after, Shen Qiu's arrival quickly attracted the attention of Huo Kangan, the president of the Dachuan Royal Chamber of Commerce.

Huo Kangan still remembered the generous Boss Shen. The strange and weird things he brought last time made him a lot of money.

"Boss Shen, long time no see. I didn't expect you to come in person. You are such a rare guest!"

After a moment, Huo Kangan came forward with a smile on his face and shook Shen Qiu's hand enthusiastically.

"President Huo, you are too polite. I heard that the war in the northern border was tense, so I brought some goods here specially."

Shen Qiu said with a smile, but his eyes glanced intentionally or unintentionally at the followers behind Huo Kangan. Their waists were bulging, obviously hiding a lot of good things.

"Hahaha, Boss Shen is so polite. Come on, let's talk inside." Huo Kangan understood what he meant and pulled Shen Qiu to the inner hall of the Chamber of Commerce. Shangguan Lie and the others were left aside.

In the inner hall, Huo Kangan had already prepared the finest tea and snacks. After exchanging a few pleasantries, the two of them got straight to the point.

"The goods that Boss Shen brought this time are all good stuff, especially the healing pills and defensive magic tools, which are hard to come by now!"

Huo Kangan spoke casually while sipping his tea, but there was a hint of tentativeness in his tone.

"President Huo, you are joking. I only have a small business. How can I compare with your Royal Chamber of Commerce that makes a fortune every day?"

Shen Qiu naturally understood what Huo Kangan meant, but he was in no hurry to show his cards and just went around in circles with him.

Just like that, after some bargaining, the two finally reached a huge deal.

Shen Qiu sold the goods exchanged from the system space to Huo Kangan at a price far below the market price.

Huo Kangan used the resources at his disposal to help Shen Qiu open up sales channels in Northern Xinjiang. Both parties made huge profits, and everyone was happy.

"Boss Shen, it's a pleasure working with you." Huo Kangan raised his glass with a joyful smile on his face.

"Pleasant to work with."

Shen Qiu also raised his glass in response, but secretly thought in his heart that the business in Northern Xinjiang seemed to be better than he had imagined. It seemed that the Nadutong caravan would expand and develop.
