Kill the enemy and get a wife? I'll single-handedly slaughter my way through the Northern Barba

The betting was in full swing, with the vast majority of people betting on Cai Wu to win, while only a few people favored Lin Feng.

On the other side, Lin Feng and Cai Wu had already taken their positions and stood facing each other.

Cai Wu stared at Lin Feng, remained silent for a moment, and then spoke: "Are you really not armed? I, Cai Wu, disdain taking advantage of others."

Lin Feng rolled up his sleeves and stretched his limbs: "I've killed too many Northern barbarians in Elephant Trunk Mountain. I'm used to weapons, and I'm afraid I might lose control and kill you."

"One punch will be enough to deal with you!"

Hearing this on the third floor, Wang Qian almost laughed in anger. He shouted sharply, "Brother Cai! Go all out and cripple his right hand!"

His lackeys also joined in the shouting.

"Master Cai, cripple him! Let him be arrogant!"

"It's truly an honor to witness Master Cai's extraordinary skills today!"

"You, surnamed Lin, are going to die!"

Cai Wu ignored the clamor around him, but Lin Feng's arrogant words made his eyes darken.

He slowly moved the golden knife in his arms to his left side, his aura suddenly tightening, entering a state of preparation.

The courtyard fell silent instantly, all eyes focused on the two, holding their breath as they awaited the start of the contest.

"call--"

Cai Wu took a deep breath and emitted a faint whistling sound.

The muscles around his body subtly bulged, and the fabric on his legs trembled slightly due to the tension in his muscles.

Lin Feng narrowed his eyes slightly, secretly finding it amusing.

Cai Wu's breathing and power generation methods were completely different from the fighting techniques he knew.

Could it be a martial art unique to this world?

"Buzz!"

As Cai Wu's aura reached its peak, the golden knife was suddenly drawn.

A dazzling, cold light sliced ​​through the air, so fast that only a blur remained!

Before everyone's eyes flashed, Cai Wu had already ambushed Lin Feng.

The golden blade, carrying a sharp gust of wind, slashed straight down!

A gasp erupted from the crowd. No one had seen Cai Wu's complete movement; they only felt that the speed of his blade was ridiculously fast!

On the third floor, Wang Qian's eyes gleamed with excitement, and he grinned widely, "Lin Feng, let's see if you're still alive this time!"

The thought of Lin Feng losing an arm and becoming a cripple made him tremble with excitement.

The golden knife was only half a step away from Lin Feng, and the strong wind generated by the blade made his hair dance wildly.

At this critical moment, Raymond Lam made his move!

"Bang!"

His right fist slammed out like a thunderbolt, striking Cai Wu's left arm precisely.

A crisp "snap" sound pierced the lobby as Cai Wu's left arm was severed!

His face was filled with horror and fear, and his body flew backward like a kite with a broken string.

With a loud bang, his body slammed heavily onto a table, shattering the table and chairs.

The golden knife clattered to the ground, its former imposing presence gone.

"You...you won?"

Yunniang rubbed her eyes, still not quite understanding how Lin Feng had won.

"Erlang won! Erlang won!"

Su Wan'er clapped her hands excitedly and ran to Lin Feng's side to carefully check if he was injured.

Cheers erupted instantly inside the courtyard.

"What superb boxing skills!"

"How did Raymond Lam win? I didn't even see it!"

"That 'invincible swift blade' is nothing but empty boasting!"

"As expected of Raymond Lam, he delivered the punch he said he'd throw!"

"Lin Feng, you owe me ten taels of silver!"

Only Cai Wu knew how terrifying Lin Feng's punch was.

In the instant the golden knife was about to strike, Lin Feng simultaneously completed four movements: sidestep, step forward, straight punch, and finishing stance.

Its speed was two levels faster than the swift sword he had honed for decades.

This guy is a monster!

Cai Wu's worldview completely collapsed; he couldn't understand how Lin Feng had developed such skills.

"I'm fine."

Lin Feng gently comforted Su Wan'er for a couple of minutes, then turned his gaze to Wang Qian, who was already dumbfounded, and said in an icy tone, "Young Master Wang, it's time to settle our score."

"What...what are you going to do?!"

Wang Qian trembled with fear and hurriedly shouted to his guards, "What are you all standing there for? Come and protect me!"

Those lackeys wanted to step forward, but when they thought of the miserable state of Cai Wu being knocked down with one punch, they immediately chickened out.

Their fancy moves were no match for Lin Feng.

Lin Feng only needed to give a cold look to intimidate everyone into standing still, and no one dared to move.

Lin Feng walked up to the third floor step by step. Wang Qian had nowhere to retreat and finally gave in completely, begging for mercy with a sob in his voice: "Lin Feng, I...we have no grudges against each other. I won't look for the courtesan anymore. I'll leave now and never come back..."

"Trying to leave?!"

Lin Feng grabbed Wang Qian by the collar with such force that he almost lifted him up.

"You're buying and selling military merits in private. What do you take the honors that our soldiers risked their lives for?"

"Your father, Old Master Wang, was a highly respected man who contributed greatly to the defense of Zhenyuan City. It's a pity he failed to raise his son properly!"

Lin Feng gripped Wang Qian's collar with his left hand, raised his right hand, and slapped him hard across the face with both hands.

"Slap! Slap! Slap!"

The crisp sound of a slap echoed across the third floor, and Wang Qian screamed in pain as he was hit.

"Stop hitting me! Stop hitting me! I was wrong!"

"Lin Feng, my father will not let you get away with this!"

"Ouch! Please stop hitting me!"

Before long, Wang Qian was beaten black and blue, looking like a fat pig.

Yunniang mustered her courage and stepped forward to plead, "Lord Lin, you've vented your anger and had enough of the beating. Please, show mercy. If this continues and someone dies, the Wang family will certainly not let it go!"

Lin Feng released his grip and let out a long sigh: "Since Yunniang has pleaded for you, I will spare you for now."

"But your business of buying and selling military merits can't just be left like this!"

He dragged Wang Qian downstairs: "Come on! Come with me to the General's Mansion and get to the bottom of this!"

After taking a couple of steps, he suddenly remembered something, turned around, and smiled gently at Song Yuwei and Su Wan'er.

"My brothers and I escaped from Elephant Trunk Mountain by the skin of our teeth. I quickly wiped my face and came to let you know that we are safe. Right now, I have to go to the General's Mansion to report for duty."

"I'll come see you all after I'm done with this."

Song Yuwei felt a warmth in her heart, and then she understood why he was in such a disheveled state and hadn't changed his clothes.

Su Wan'er's heart also warmed; it was enough that Erlang remembered her.

Song Yuwei smiled, her eyes full of tenderness: "Yes, Yuwei will wait for Lin Lang."

Song Yuwei's favorability +5

[Su Wan'er's favorability +6]

Lin Feng dragged Wang Qian away, leaving behind the scholar in blue robes who had run the gambling den shouting ecstatically, "We're rich! We're rich! Thank you, General Lin, for letting me make a fortune!"

It turns out he bet on Lin Feng to win, and now he's made a fortune.

The two had only walked two streets when they encountered Zhang Lu, who had come looking for someone.

Zhang Lu was quite surprised to see Lin Feng dragging a young man with a bruised and swollen face.

Only after Lin Feng revealed his identity did he realize that this person was actually the eldest son of the Wang family.

Zhang Lu hurriedly advised Lin Feng to release Wang Qian to avoid offending the Wang family.

But when Lin Feng revealed Wang Qian's dealings in military merits, Zhang Lu was speechless and could no longer plead for him.

He had accompanied Lü Zheng to Elephant Trunk Mountain and knew that military merits were earned by soldiers risking their lives.

If the practice of buying and selling military merits is allowed to spread, it will surely chill the hearts of all the soldiers.

Zhang Lu came here on Zhang Liao's orders to summon Lin Feng.

It turned out that Lü Zheng and the others had already arrived at the general's mansion and informed Zhang Liao of the details of the Battle of Elephant Trunk Hill and the news of the survivors.

Zhang Liao's mourning hall was already set up when he suddenly heard that his adopted son was still alive and that more than two hundred warriors had survived. He was overjoyed and wept with joy. He immediately held a banquet to celebrate the victory of the Liaodong reinforcements and the survivors of Elephant Trunk Mountain.

Now that everyone has arrived except for Lin Feng and a few others, Zhang Lu hurriedly went out to look for them.

Inside the Yichun brothel, Wang Qian was forcibly taken away, and his lackeys were thrown into chaos.

Despite the excruciating pain from his broken left arm, Cai Wu ordered, "Some men should secretly follow Lin Feng to protect the young master's safety. The rest should return to the Wang family immediately and report to the old master, instructing him to act swiftly!"

Wang Qian's business of buying and selling military merits could be considered a big deal or a small one.

If Old Master Wang is willing to put aside his pride, given the Wang family's financial support for Zhang Liao's defense of the city, he might be able to save Wang Qian.

The most important thing right now is to get the old man to step in and smooth things over before things escalate.

The key is to be fast!
