~9 min read 1,608 words

"Damn, Zhang, what good treasure did you fish out again?"

"Hehe, that's naturally what we are currently lacking the most!"

Zhang He said with a mysterious smile.

"Oh?"

Chu Feng became interested as well.

He really wanted to know what good things Zhang He had fished out this time.

After Zhang He brought the items before Chu Feng and opened them.

Chu Feng's entire eyes became burning hot.

"Damn, Zhang, do you have a built-in treasure-hunting talent or something?"

Chu Feng said with immense excitement, "You actually found another batch of Pills!"

"Hehe, I was just trying my luck, I didn't expect to stumble upon good things again!"

This box of Pills was pressed completely at the very bottom of the supply cart.

Originally, there was an intention to burn it.

As it turned out, Zhang He just felt something was wrong, and then he searched through it carefully again.

Sure enough, he really did find good things.

"Zhang, don't say anything else, just the fact that you discovered these Pills is a great contribution!"

"Hehe, thank you, My Lord!"

There were many Pills in the box, most of which were Healing Medicine.

These supplies were what they were most urgently in need of right now.

At the moment, they were behind enemy lines executing a mission to disrupt the enemy's logistics, so casualties were inevitable.

And with these Healing Medicine, they could significantly reduce their casualties.

Besides this.

Chu Feng actually discovered three even more precious Pills.

"Four-Grade Breakthrough Pill!"

This discovery made Chu Feng feel very surprised.

Pills are divided into nine grades according to their category.

First grade is the lowest, ninth grade is the highest.

The value of one Four-Grade Pill is around 150,000 taels of silver.

Just the value of these three Four-Grade Pills alone reached nearly 500,000 silver.

"Great, with these three Four-Grade Breakthrough Pills, there can be a few more experts in the Acquired Realm in the team!"

Chu Feng first thought of Xiang Yuan and Qiu Ming, these two people.

Afterwards, he immediately called both of them over.

"My Lord!"

"My Lord!"

After receiving the order, Xiang Yuan and Qiu Ming immediately rushed over.

"You two, here are two Four-Grade Breakthrough Pills, one for each of you!"

"What?"

After hearing this news, the two of them instantly felt as if they were dreaming.

It was not until Chu Feng stuffed the Pills into their hands that they understood this was not a dream.

"My Lord, this... this is too valuable, this subordinate dares not accept it!"

Xiang Yuan and Qiu Ming hurriedly tried to return the Pills, but were pushed back by Chu Feng.

"Everyone is on the same boat as brothers now, we should share blessings and hardships together!"

"Besides, the stronger your strength, the greater the role we can play; of course, it can also better allow more brothers to return!"

"So, you don't need to decline anymore!"

The hearts of Xiang Yuan and Qiu Ming were deeply touched.

The two of them had already stayed at the Martial Master Perfection realm for a long time.

What they lacked was just an opportunity.

If they could have a Four-Grade Breakthrough Pill, they would have full confidence in breaking through to the Acquired Realm.

It was just that the imperial court did not attach importance to Dingning Pass, so there was no supply in this regard.

Now Chu Feng suddenly gave them each a Four-Grade Breakthrough Pill.

It was equivalent to opening up a broader path for them.

"My Lord, in the future, if there are any commands, this subordinate is willing to serve like a dog or horse!"

"Me too!"

The two of them expressed their loyalty to Chu Feng one after another.

This was the first time they had been valued so much by someone.

"Alright, enough said, it's about handled here, we should also change places to continue causing destruction!"

"Hehe, well said, continue to mess up their transport in the rear of the Xiongnu!"

The group immediately mounted their horses and left the scene at high speed.

In just a single day.

Over a dozen Xiongnu transport teams were attacked one after another and suffered heavy losses.

The attack on the supplies in the rear greatly affected the morale of the Xiongnu main camp on the front lines.

"What is the situation? Why have the supplies been delayed?"

Facing the fury of the Left Worthy King, the officer in charge of supply matters wore a look of helplessness.

"Great King, a troop suddenly appeared in our rear and is wantonly destroying our material transport routes."

"What?"

The Left Worthy King raged, "Which force dares to destroy and plunder our supplies? Is it the Turkic or some other force?"

The Turkic are the second largest force on the grasslands.

They usually have no direct conflicts with the Xiongnu.

"This subordinate does not know, but I have already sent men to scout, and I believe it will not be long before we know who is responsible!"

"Go and investigate this clearly for me immediately; if there is the slightest delay, I will hold you accountable!"

"Yes!"

Following the order.

A unit of Xiongnu cavalry sped toward the hinterlands to investigate the situation.

The transport of supplies in the rear concerns whether they can take Dingning Pass as soon as possible.

Therefore, these people did not dare to delay at all.

After all, their King is currently in a fit of rage.

Just yesterday, the Left Worthy King had already beheaded several people.

The scene shifts.

Chu Feng led his team to raid over a dozen transport teams in succession.

They seized massive amounts of supplies and horses.

Everything useful to them was taken away.

Anything that could not be taken was burned on the spot, not leaving the Xiongnu even a single grain of food.

Night fell.

Chu Feng led his team to set up camp at a hidden sand dune.

Of course, he did not forget to arrange personnel for guard duty.

They are currently in the enemy's hinterlands and must be careful and attentive at all times.

Inside the camp.

The soldiers responsible for cooking set up large pots to boil the beef and mutton seized today.

They had seized far too many things today.

It was enough for them to eat for quite a long time.

"Damn it, this feels great! Usually, it's the Xiongnu robbing us, now it's our turn to rob them!"

"That's right, it's the first time I've felt that stolen goods are so delicious!"

"Hehe, everyone keep up the good work, let's rob some more tomorrow!"

Everyone was laughing and talking about the encounters that happened today.

No one knew how much longer they could live.

In any case, they lived one day at a time.

Who told them to work a job where they lick blood off the blade.

After dinner.

Chu Feng opened his information panel.

【Name: Chu Feng】

【Race: Human】

【Cultivation Methods: 《Qi Refining Technique》(Minor Completion) + 《Eighteen Wind-Chasing Sabers》(Great Completion) 《Tyrant Spear》(Entry) 《Purple Firmament Profound Heaven Art》(Entry)】

【Realm: Martial Master Perfection+】

【Strength: 9,400 jin】

【Talent: Elite Archer】

【Killing Points: 320】

After a day of fighting.

Chu Feng had once again accumulated quite a few Killing Points.

In the end, he chose to add points to his cultivation as usual.

【Name: Chu Feng】

【Race: Human】

【Cultivation Methods: 《Qi Refining Technique》(Minor Completion) 《Eighteen Wind-Chasing Sabers》(Great Completion) 《Tyrant Spear》(Entry) 《Purple Firmament Profound Heaven Art》(Entry)】

【Realm: Martial Master Limit Perfection】

【Strength: 11,000 jin】

【Talent: Elite Archer】

【Killing Points: 20】

"Crack, crack, crack..."

Chu Feng stretched his bones and muscles.

The blood energy and Martial Dao True Essence within his body washed over his limbs and bones once again.

The Protective Qi attached to the outside of his body also became increasingly dense at this moment.

If a Martial Artist at the Postnatal Early Stage dared to jump around in front of him.

He believed he could crush the other party's bones with just one hand.

"I wonder if I can break through my Postnatal cultivation in one go tonight!"

Chu Feng took out the rank four Breaking Mirror Pill he had just seized today.

He was now at the peak perfection cultivation of a Martial Master.

If he added the assistance of the Breaking Mirror Pill, breaking through to the Postnatal realm should not be a problem.

He did what he said he would do.

After Chu Feng finished arranging a series of tasks, he immediately swallowed the rank four Breaking Mirror Pill and began to cultivate.

The Purple Firmament Profound Heaven Art operated at full power.

Spiritual energy from all directions began to gather continuously with Chu Feng as the center.

It was also at this moment.

News also came from the Xiongnu main camp.

"Great King, the matter has been investigated clearly; a Wei cavalry unit of about one thousand people has appeared in our rear, specifically targeting our transport lines!"

Upon learning this news, the Left Worthy King sneered: "Heh, Zhao Ping, you really took a desperate risk to delay time!"

"Order!"

"Immediately dispatch three iron cavalry units to wipe out these one thousand rats for me!"

"Order all grain transport teams to increase their manpower to prevent any unforeseen events!"

"As you command!"

Following the issuance of the orders.

A unit departed from the Xiongnu main camp at high speed, heading straight for the rear.

This was a unit numbering as many as six thousand.

In order to clear the harassment in the rear as quickly as possible, the Left Worthy King had also spared no expense.

And Chu Feng was still unaware of these circumstances.
