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

Lin Feng moved closer to the city wall again and changed to a concealed firing position.

While the catapult was charging up to launch another stone, he suddenly stood up and shot an arrow through the gap between the two arrow emplacements.

"Whoosh!"

The moment the arrow left his hand, Lin Feng withdrew his gaze, focusing all his attention on defense.

really!

Two blood-red arrows arrived as expected from below the city walls, aimed straight for his head and throat.

Lin Feng, who was prepared, dodged with astonishing speed. His eyes locked onto one of the archers first, and he ducked to avoid it.

"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh!"

The arrow grazed his helmet, leaving another jagged dent.

Taking advantage of the momentum, Lin Feng shifted to the left and stood up again. The armor-piercing arrow was already firmly nocked on the bowstring, and he released the bowstring at a Blood Vanguard elite below the city.

The soldiers of the Blood Vanguard Battalion were dressed no differently from ordinary soldiers, except that their hard bows were two sizes larger than those of ordinary archers.

A striking red ribbon was tied around her waist.

Among thousands of troops, this red ribbon was inconspicuous, but they encountered Lin Feng.

Top archers are known for their keen and meticulous observation skills.

From the moment he fired the first arrow at the catapult, he had accurately locked onto the positions of the two Blood Vanguard archers.

"Whoosh!"

The armor-piercing arrow tore through the sky, its sharp whistling sound piercing the eardrums.

The Blood Vanguard soldiers' expressions changed drastically when they saw the arrows hurtling towards them, and they hurriedly raised their iron shields to hold them in front of them.

"Clang—"

The clanging of metal against metal was deafening, and the power of the armor-piercing arrow was terrifying.

The soldier took the blow head-on, only to feel his arms go numb. The immense force actually caused the iron shield to fly out of his hand.

Before the iron shield even hit the ground, a second armor-piercing arrow followed.

"Pfft!"

The arrow pierced the soldier's body instantly, sending his corpse flying several feet away.

"He's there!"

Seeing their comrade fall, the remaining Blood Vanguard soldiers' eyes turned bloodshot, and they all raised their bows and shot at Lin Feng on the city wall.

While dodging the barrage of blood-red arrows, Lin Feng launched a counterattack with unpredictable movements.

His movements were as fast as a ghost, his speed was astonishing, and his arrow shooting speed was ridiculously fast!

The Blood Vanguard Battalion would often have several men simultaneously spot him peeking out and then fire arrows to suppress him.

But when Raymond Lam reappears, he always manages to accurately target and kill one person, just like a Grim Reaper!

The Blood Vanguard Battalion deployed more than thirty men to restrain Lin Feng, but they were unable to harm him in the slightest. They could only barely limit his performance by constantly losing men.

After a day of fierce fighting, Lin Feng destroyed five catapults, and twenty Blood Vanguard soldiers fell to his arrows.

However, the Blood Vanguard suffered heavy losses, but its strategic objectives had been achieved.

With their presence holding them back, the Northern Barbarian soldiers were able to transport siege ladders and launch attacks much more smoothly than before.

Lin Feng was feeling quite annoyed, feeling constrained and restricted.

Meanwhile, the officers of the Blood Vanguard Battalion were also deeply troubled by the heavy losses they had suffered.

The Blood Vanguard Battalion's elite force numbered no more than a thousand men, all of whom were among Boyan Mengke's most trusted confidants.

Twenty people were lost in that one day; if this continues, it will surely become a major problem.

Neither side had a way out. The fighting continued, and no matter how heavy the casualties were, they could only hold on to the bitter end!

That night, at 3:45 PM.

Lin Feng changed into a set of plain clothes and quietly slipped out of the military camp with Wan Qian.

Tonight they won't go to the brothel; their target is the hidden "black market" in Zhenyuan City.

"My lord, you were absolutely amazing today!"

Wan Qian, standing beside him, couldn't help but give a thumbs up and praised, "I heard that today the Northern Barbarians' Blood Vanguard Camp came out in full force, killing eight of our centurions and one chiliarch. Even General Bian Xi was almost hit, taking an arrow to his left arm."

"But you single-handedly slew twenty Blood Vanguard thugs; I admire you from the bottom of my heart!"

Although the Blood Vanguard Battalion suffered heavy losses in the northeast corner of Zhenyuan City, it displayed great prowess in other sections of the city wall.

Officers at all levels of the Zhenyuan Army became their primary targets.

In today's battle, several centurions and chiliarchs have died in succession.

If it weren't for Lin Feng's exceptional martial prowess, any other general guarding the northeast corner would have already been beheaded.

Lin Feng's gaze swept across the quiet streets and alleys, and he said softly, "Don't give me that crap! We've been walking for so long, where exactly is the black market?"

The two were in a residential area. After nightfall, the streets and alleys were deserted, and it was hard to see even a single person walking around, let alone any market.

Wan Qian smiled mysteriously and said, "My lord, don't be in a hurry, just follow me."

He led Lin Feng into a narrow alley, walked to the end, and gently knocked twice on the courtyard gate.

"Thump—"

"Thump! Thump!"

After a pause, he tapped it again.

"Thump—"

"Thump! Thump!"

Finally, the courtyard gate creaked open, and a face covered in fat peeked out.

The man glanced at Wan Qian, then at Lin Feng, and muttered three words: "Eight coins!"

Wan Qian chuckled, took out three copper coins and stuffed them into the man's hand, then led Lin Feng into the courtyard.

Lin Feng was slightly surprised: "You have to pay to come to the black market?"

Wan Qian nodded and explained the intricacies of the matter to Lin Feng.

"My lord, you are unaware that the black market sells things that cannot be brought to light. Since there are hidden places for people to trade, someone has to manage them."

"This black market is created by capable people who take over several large mansions, open them up, and renovate them. Maintaining this business is extremely costly."

"So we had to pay a 'ticket' of four coins to enter each time, and the two of us had exactly eight coins."

Lin Feng found it intriguing: "There are actually such rules, setting up a black market in a private residence, it's really peculiar."

The two walked out of the guarded courtyard, passed through an archway, and suddenly found themselves in a bright and open space.

The square courtyard was lined with vendors' stalls selling all sorts of strange and unusual items.

There were also many customers standing in the center selecting goods.

The buyers and sellers spoke in hushed tones, a tacit understanding between them, unlike the usual bustling market.

Wan Qian skillfully took two masks from the wooden shelf beside him and handed one of them to Lin Feng.

"Sir, you are an official, so it would be safer for you to wear a mask. Here, I will humbly address you as elder brother."

Lin Feng casually took the face mask, put it on, and nodded, saying, "Alright! Thank you for your trouble, Brother Wan!"

As the two walked through the courtyard, the cries of vendors rose and fell in the air, making Lin Feng increasingly alarmed.

"Use the best aphrodisiac! Whether she's a chaste and virtuous woman or a demure young lady, once she's touched it, she's helpless!"

"Fresh human tongue as a medicinal ingredient! Ten taels of silver, specially formulated to cure even the most difficult and complicated diseases!"

"A century-old remedy from the Northern Barbarians! It prolongs life, nourishes the kidneys, and enhances virility—its effects speak for themselves!"

"An essential drug for the martial arts world; one whiff and you're unconscious, the effects are immediate!"

"A jade ruyi, an artifact from the former dynasty's palace! Clearance sale at a low price, don't miss out!"

"Sword manuals, zither scores, boxing manuals! All up for sale at rock-bottom prices!"

……

"Ten thousand coins, can everything here really be trusted?"

Lin Feng frowned slightly and asked in a low voice, "How come there are still people selling human tongues as a medicinal ingredient?"

Wan Qian also lowered his voice: "Brother, this place is a mixed bag; they sell all sorts of things here."

"Many of them are just sensationalist and fraudulent schemes, but of course there are genuine products. Whether they work or not, whether they're real or not, it all depends on your own judgment. I can't tell the difference."

"However, there were indeed rumors in the previous dynasty about using human tongues as medicine to treat difficult and complicated diseases."

The two passed through three courtyards in a row, and when they arrived at the fourth courtyard, the scene was completely different.

The courtyard was exceptionally clean, with six burly men holding sticks standing guard on both sides.

Looking into the depths, a three-story pavilion stands majestically, with three gilded characters engraved on the lintel plaque: "Stone Gambling Workshop".
