Chapter 39: I Have Long Respected the Liangshan Stronghold

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

A Mountain Thief flew sideways and landed on the ground. When he landed, he began vomiting blood uncontrollably.

Qin Shujian slowly pulled his hands back, but he didn’t stop his tracks.

The area around him had already been filled with countless corpses.

The Mountain Thieves that died earlier had already disappeared.

The thieves that were lying here had died moments earlier–their corpses were still warm.

As Qin Shujian advanced one step at a time, the rest of the Mountain Thieves retreated continuously. The hand that they were holding their blades with trembled uncontrollably.

It couldn’t be helped.

They were not intelligent, but that didn’t mean that they were not afraid of death.

The person in front of them was terrifyingly strong.

Their brothers, who had charged forward, had not managed to take even one of his attacks.

However, those who had charged forward were now all lying on the ground.

“Who dares come and cause trouble at Mount Mingai!” A furious roar startled the birds in the area.

A black figure covered the ground. Then, a muscular figure landed heavily on the ground.

In that instant, the ground seemed to shake.

“Chief!” The Mountain Thieves seemed to receive a boost of confidence when they saw who had come.

Their fearful hearts calmed down slightly.

From the perspective of the Mountain Thieves, Niu Feng was the most powerful person.

Peak Blood and Qi?

Still, a little distance away, Qin Shujian narrowed his eyes as he looked at Niu Feng, who had leaped past the Mountain Thieves.

Even though he couldn’t see the other party’s attributes, just looking at him allowed Qin Shujian to sense Niu Feng’s magnificent blood and qi.

However, even though his blood and qi were magnificent, it was still some distance away from Peak Blood and Qi.

According to his estimates, the person who arrived should be at the peak of Martial Entry-Level Five but had not stepped into Martial Entry-Level Six.

However, with the boost he got from being in his territory, he should be equivalent to a false Martial Entry-Level Six fighter.

As for the identity of the other party, it was clear as day.

The master of Mount Mingai.

Qin Shujian observed Niu Feng, while Niu Feng also saw Qin Shujian on the battlefield.

When he saw Qin Shujian for the first time, he felt that the person standing in front of him was not human, but instead a ferocious beast.

The pressure of such a fierce aura caused his hair to involuntarily stand.

That was a feeling he only felt this when he encountered a horrifying threat.

An expert!

An expert that he could not fight against!

While Niu Feng was immensely shocked, his ferocious expression suddenly changed as he tried his best to force out a smile, “I am NIu Feng, the master of Mount Mingai. I haven’t asked you for your name.”

As for why the other party was killing his subordinates, Niu Feng didn’t even dare to mention it now.

“I am the Liangshan Stronghold Chieftain, Qin Shujian,” Qin Shujian smiled and said as he looked at the uneasy Niu Feng.

“Oh, so it’s Liangshan…” Niu Feng was about to engage in formalities when he suddenly paused. The gaze he gave Qin Shujian was as if he had seen a ghost.

He had never heard of the name Qin Shujian.

However, he was very familiar with the title “Liangshan Stronghold Chieftain.”

Niu Feng’s heart turned cold when he remembered the contents of the letter that the Liangshan Stronghold sent over, only to be crushed to bits by him.

Qin Shujian observed Niu Feng’s reaction, “I think that you should know my intentions now, Chief Niu?”

“Hehe…” Niu Feng laughed nervously, unable to speak. He didn’t know what answer to give for the time being.

He would easily infuriate the other party if he played dumb.

With the opponent’s frightening aura, if they were truly to fight, whether or not the entire Mount Mingai was a match for him was still unknown.

However, he felt indignant that he had to be subservient to Qin Shujian.

Qin Shujian knew a little about what was going through Niu Feng’s mind.

However, he didn’t have too much time to waste talking nonsense with the other party. He said directly, “I’ll give you a minute to consider.”

“If Mount Mingai is willing to join the Liangshan Stronghold, then we will be family from now on.”

“But if you are not willing, then I wish to see if Mount Mingai has the ability to reject my offer!”

When he heard this, Niu Feng’s heart sank.

Qin Shujian’s words had forced him into a dead end.

He could either submit or stubbornly fight to the end.

There was no third option.

He had become used to being the Boss. Niu Feng was naturally unwilling to suddenly have someone to answer to, for there to be someone above him.

But, when he looked at Qin Shujian again and sensed the pressure of the aura that made his heart tremble, the courage that Niu Feng fought hard to muster scattered considerably.

Submit!

Or not submit!

Niu Feng felt that this was a difficult question.

His gruff expression changed continuously. There was a faint, intense struggle painted on his face.

Qin Shujian casually stood by the side.

However, there was a persistent icy gaze in his calm eyes.

He was giving Niu Feng the last chance.

If the other party didn’t know any better, there would no longer be Mountain Thieves from Mount Mingai left in the Messy Stone Forest.

Time passed slowly.

“One minute is up. It looks like Mount Mingai wants to be stubborn until the end!”

Qin Shujian placed his hand on the blade on his back. Instantly, his aura swept through the area like a violent storm. A black tiger that was as tall as multiple men could faintly be seen.

This sudden change startled Niu Feng greatly.

“Wait, please halt, Stronghold Chieftain Qin!”

“Do you have something else to say?” Qin Shujian had no expression. His aura poured out of his body continuously.

Niu Feng looked at the blade that was slowly being drawn. He felt as though he could hear the roar of a tiger. His heart was beating profusely. He said in a hurry, “Mount Mingai is willing to submit!”

“The master of Mount Mingai, Niu Feng, wants to submit to you. Do you accept!”

Qin Shujian didn’t immediately agree. Instead, he questioned Niu Feng, “Have you thought it through?”

Niu Feng lowered his head and said sincerely, “I have long heard about your reputation and have respected you for a long time. It is our blessing that Mount Mingai can join the Liangshan Stronghold.”

“Alright, you shall become an Elite Leader of the Liangshan Stronghold from now on. The rest of your Mountain Thieves will join the Liangshan Stronghold.”

The terrifying aura suddenly disappeared. Qin Shujian’s cold expression revealed a friendly smile.

“Mount Mingai has joined the Liangshan Stronghold!”

“Because Niu Feng had voluntarily submitted to you, Mount Mingai will automatically be combined with the Liangshan Stronghold. As the conditions for leveling up has not been met, the Liangshan Stronghold is still a Level One Faction!”

“You received 234 silver taels!”

“You received 300 points of Life Value!”

“Fifty-three Mountain Thieves had joined the Liangshan Stronghold. Their identities had automatically been converted to Mountain Bandits!”

The system notifications appeared at the appropriate time.

When Qin Shujian looked at Niu Feng again, the other party’s attributes had appeared before his eyes.

Name: Niu Feng

Identity: Elite Leader

Affiliation: Liangshan Stronghold

Stage: Martial Entry-Level Five

Faction Level: Level One

Cultivated Techniques: Perfected Giant Stone Technique, Mountain Breaking Knife Technique (Adept)

There were no surprises.

Just as he expected, Niu Feng was a Martial Entry-Level Five fighter.

When he saw the perfected Giant Stone Technique, Qin Shujian understood why the other party hadn’t managed to advance to the next level despite being at the peak of Martial Entry-Level Five.

In the end, he was being limited by his technique.

Clearly, the Giant Stone Technique was like the Bodyforge Manual and Eternal Youth Technique. They reached their maximum level at Level Five and lacked content that allowed users to refine their blood and qi to reach Peak Blood and Qi at Level Six.
