Chapter 16 Thank you, brother, for the sword.
ten minutes later.

Xu Feng waved to Liu Yu, who was wearing work clothes at the door, and said, "Then I'll leave it to you."

"It's okay, see you tonight then, say goodbye to Dad."

Liu Yu smiled and waved his hand, then looked down at Xiao Dan and said.

Xiao Dan smiled slightly and winked at Xu Feng: "Goodbye, Daddy."

Xu Feng completely ignored her antics and strode back.

Upon returning home, he fully armed himself, took all his throwing knives, slung his battle sword over his shoulder, and placed all the valuables in the tunnel.

Then he strode towards the wilderness.

As the number of shacks around him dwindled and the environment became increasingly unfamiliar, Xu Feng's heart began to race, and he slowed his pace.

Although somewhat annoyed by his own cowardice, Hsu Feng would not try to be a hero.

Although the wilderness area around the base is often cleared by teams of students from Tianyue Martial Arts University.

Even so, mutated creatures still occasionally appear.

Therefore, he would rather live than pretend to be cool.

And so, following the map's guidance, Xu Feng explored forward, taking advantage of the evening sunset.

After walking about 3 kilometers.

Finally, we saw the iconic hill marked on the map.

"This map is quite accurate, but it's a pity it doesn't have GPS, otherwise it would be even more convenient."

Having encountered no danger along the way, Xu Feng relaxed his vigilance somewhat.

No wonder the servants often go out on trips or hunting in groups during their holidays, and I've heard that they rarely get into trouble.

"If you walk about 200 kilometers northeast along this mountain, you will reach the base of Tsinghua University, Peking University, and Wuhan University in Zone D22."

It's said that it's three or four times larger than the Tianyue Martial Arts University's base, with more powerful individuals and a more lively atmosphere.

Having roughly determined the direction, Xu Feng turned around and headed back.

However, he had just turned around.

Suddenly, a noise came from the woods nearby.

Xu Feng raised his hand and launched a flying knife, an action that seemed entirely instinctive.

"Gah-"

next moment.

The clump of grass trembled violently, then fell silent.

"What the heck?" Xu Feng was actually startled.

However, glancing at the sky, he realized it was still early, so he drew his sword from his waist and walked toward the roadside.

After taking five steps, Xu Feng stopped and looked into the bushes in the distance.

Upon closer inspection, it was discovered that the creature he had instantly killed was actually a bird with bronze-colored wings.

This bird is only the size of a foot, and its feathers look like they were cast in bronze, making it very beautiful.

"What's this??"

Xu Feng, who had little knowledge of mutated organisms, was somewhat bewildered.

However, this bird was clearly not normal, but he didn't know whether it was dangerous or not.

Xu Feng had no intention of investigating and immediately turned and left.

But suddenly, he caught a glimpse of something out of the corner of his eye.

In the deeper thicket of trees, a person was sitting half-sitting.

The man sat there motionless, head down, leaning against the tree trunk.

Xu Feng's pupils immediately contracted, and he stepped back.

But soon, Xu Feng noticed a bloody hole in the man's neck.

died?

Xu Feng glanced at the bronze-colored bird lying on the ground.

He immediately understood what was going on.

This person must have been attacked by the bird and bled to death.

Unfortunately, this bird was killed instantly by the user before they even met.

Xu Feng swallowed hard. His first reaction wasn't that his throwing knife was powerful, but rather that he was shocked by how much damage the bird could inflict.

So, it seems my throwing knife skills have now suffered some initial damage.

After all, even true martial artists are made of flesh and blood.

If you are stabbed in the throat or hit in a vulnerable area such as the eyes.

He would still get hurt, bleed, and die. Clutching a throwing knife in one hand and a battle sword in the other, Xu Feng took two steps forward and whispered to the man, "Hey, brother, are you still alive?"

However, the person did not respond at all.

The clothes he was wearing were not combat uniforms, but rather ordinary work clothes for a servant.

They look like staff members from the cleaning department of Tianyue Martial Arts University.

Judging from the bow and arrows he left behind and the bag of his catch, this person must have gone out hunting alone to get some meat to eat.

Unexpectedly, he was attacked and killed by the bronze bird.

Xu Feng sighed slightly, not wanting to get involved in this mess, and turned to leave.

But then there was a "clang".

A short sword gleaming with cold light suddenly fell to the ground from the man's lower back.

Upon closer inspection, Xu Feng noticed a scabbard tucked into the man's lower back, from which the sword had slipped out.

"arms?"

Xu Feng hesitated for a moment, then stepped into the woods, picked up the sword, and without daring to look at it for long, turned around and strode back.

After taking a couple of steps, Xu Feng simply started running.

He ran all the way to the edge of the shantytown before turning back to look at the forest, swallowing hard to regain his senses.

"Damn, what a coward! Why would I run? He's just a dead man."

Xu Feng muttered to himself in shame.

But he quickly convinced himself: "I still need to pick up Xiaodan, so I'd better hurry."

Xu Feng then quickly walked through the shantytown and arrived at the second-hand weapons trading shop in the trading area.

As soon as he entered, he seemingly expertly placed the sword on the counter: "Boss, how much for this sword? And this knife too?"

It's as if they've already bought and sold it many times.

The shopkeeper glanced at Xu Feng, then picked up the sword that Xu Feng hadn't even looked at closely: "Usually, C-grade weapons like this don't fetch much when recycled secondhand, but your Star Moon Sword is in decent condition, at most 1."

1?
Xu Feng's pupils contracted. This battle sword was actually a C-grade alloy weapon?
"And what about my knife?" Xu Feng asked again.

The shopkeeper glanced at it casually and scoffed, "This? A second-rate standard combat soldier, an old model from many years ago."

It's worthless, 2000 yuan, just consider it scrap metal.

Damn, such a big difference?

Xu Feng's heart skipped a beat; he knew he had struck gold.

No wonder Little Fatty seemed so nonchalant when he gave him the knife; Xu Feng had guessed it wasn't worth much.

However, two thousand is still money.

Xu Feng paused, then smiled slightly: "A C-grade Star Moon Sword. Look at its condition and wear. I maintain it regularly. 1 is too low. Add some points."

The shopkeeper casually sat back down in his recliner and said to Xu Feng indifferently, "11,000, adding a thousand at most. You have to understand that it's a second-hand weapon after all."

A brand new C-grade Star Moon Sword only costs 28,000; everyone wants to use the new weapon.

"Hehe, this isn't the first time I've sold weapons," Xu Feng casually joked. "I'll let the boss make a little more money. With this knife, it'll be 20,000 in total."

"Twenty thousand is impossible, at most thirteen thousand."

"We've had this opportunity before, and there will be many more opportunities for cooperation in the future. Let's add more, and add more."

In the end, Xu Feng argued with the boss for a long time and raised the price to 18,000.

Immediately, Xu Feng turned his head and looked at the row of C-grade battle swords hanging on the wall, and said with a smile, "I was just thinking of changing my sword, how about you sell me that C-grade Flowing Wind Sword for 18,000?"

The boss was speechless.

"Hehe, I've been in business for so long, and this is the first time I've ever seen someone haggle like this. It's truly an eye-opener."

"Hey, I'm a bit short on cash lately. Boss, I really want to be your friend, so you should pay me back."

"20,000, uh, never mind, I'll give you 19,000, let's save ourselves the trouble of arguing, okay?"

The boss sighed, rubbing his forehead.

Xu Feng chuckled: "Alright, then you have to give me a bottle of sword-protecting oil."

"Alright, alright, I'll give you a bottle." The shopkeeper sighed, turned around, and took down the battle knife from the wall.

The boss handed the knife to Xu Feng: "Take a look. If you're sure, I'll pack it up for you."

If you have any questions after leaving the store, feel free to contact me. We are the official store of 'Tianyue,' and we look forward to cooperating with you in the future.

"Alright." Xu Feng paid a thousand without hesitation this time, took the knife in his hand and examined it carefully, then picked up a 200ml bottle of sword-protecting oil and turned to leave the shop.

This trip was truly a great success.

Xu Feng thought of the corpse again.

"Thank you for the sword, brother. I will help you see more of the world."
