27: Someone behind the scenes

"Who are you?"

"What are you doing here?" Feng Cai asked, taking a step forward.

The brawny man planted his Lihua Kaishan Axe on the ground with a clang, puffed out his chest, and proudly declared:

"When I speak my name, it will scare you!"

"I am..."

"Huh, a meteor!" The brawny man looked at the sky behind the three and suddenly cried out in alarm!

Seeing the three about to turn around, the brawny man immediately took off running without hesitation. His Third-rate Military General strength allowed him to cover twenty meters in an instant, but he suddenly felt a cold breeze on his back.

He instinctively rolled to the side, and a few strands of his hair were cut off and fell to the ground.

"That was close!" The brawny man was startled; this person was even more formidable than he had imagined!

The brawny man turned and raised his Lihua Kaishan Axe, swinging it at Pan Feng. The two great axes continuously intersected, drawing silver streaks of light in the air, like swimming dragons!

Both were Third-rate Military Generals, but Pan Feng was clearly superior, wielding his Xuanhua Axe with formidable power.

Lin Yue watched quietly from the side; it was rare to see Military Generals fighting one-on-one, which greatly benefited his understanding of martial arts!

The opposing brawny man's moves were broad and sweeping, and Pan Feng's style was similar, but compared to his opponent, Pan Feng had an added touch of finesse and unpredictability.

The two exchanged thirty blows, back and forth, creating a fierce scene. Gusts of wind occasionally swept through, causing the surrounding tree leaves to rustle!

The brawny man opposite seemed to be running out of stamina, gasping for breath after each exchange. He went from being evenly matched to barely being able to defend!

Pan Feng, however, grew stronger with each attack, his Xuanhua Axe subtly emitting a tiger's roar!

"Clang!"

Finally, after two axes collided, the brawny man's axe flew away, and he fell to the ground, his neck pinned by the great axe, unable to move.

The brawny man said nothing, tilting his head and closing his eyes as if resigned to his fate.

"Good skills, who are you?" Pan Feng asked from above.

"If I weren't hungry, how could a mere man like you defeat me!"

"Oh, a king of tough talk," Lin Yue couldn't help but laugh. With a blade at his neck, he was still talking tough.

"Hmph, barely stepping into the Third-rate Military General realm, and you dare to be presumptuous in front of me?" Pan Feng applied a slight downward pressure with the Xuanhua Axe in his hand.

"No, no, no, brawny man, spare my life." Seeing that Pan Feng was truly willing to kill him, the brawny man quickly begged for mercy.

"Pan Feng, take him back." Lin Yue said with a smile, walking straight ahead with Feng Cai.

"Yes, Lord." Pan Feng took out a Vajra Rope to tie up the brawny man, then hoisted him onto his shoulder and headed straight back to the village.

He could sense that the person ahead, shouting into the void, was only at the Intermediate Soldier realm, a complete weakling with no threat to his Lord, so he returned.

Lin Yue and Feng Cai stopped, watching a scrawny man ahead shouting into the air. Sounds of "Brothers" and "Family" reached their ears. He was so engrossed that he didn't notice them. Lin Yue knew this was General Yu.

Lin Yue was about to step forward but was stopped by Feng Cai.

"Lord, why use a butcher's knife to kill a chicken? May this old man try his hand?"

Feng Cai looked at the man in front of him, muttering to himself into the air as if in a trance, and bowed to Lin Yue, asking.

Just now, Pan Feng had shown off his skills in front of the Lord. Wang Hu, Hou Da, and Zhang Wenfeng also had their own tasks, leaving only himself.

Now that he had finally encountered a weakling, he had to perform well in front of the Lord to let him know that this old man also had a purpose.

"Good, go, and be careful." Lin Yue nodded.

Feng Cai's heart warmed; the Lord still cared about him the most. The Lord hadn't said anything to Pan Feng earlier!

But the Lord still underestimated him. Don't let his old appearance fool him; twenty years of military service meant his skills were not old. He then smiled silently and walked towards the man.

"Brothers, join our Yu Family Army, and I guarantee you'll eat well and live comfortably!"

"Forget Mountain Bandits, we're not even afraid of Qin Dynasty Soldiers.

Even passing dogs that look at us will get two slaps!"

In General Yu's eyes, this small village of a thousand people could be broken by a single Third-rate Military General. He brought out his entire Yu Family Army solely to display his strength and recruit players.

So he had been not far behind the brawny man, preparing to show the brawny man's strength to the players in his live stream later!

He was working so hard to expand the Yu Family Army's strength!

Once his Yu Family Army grew, and with his Third-rate Military General strength, he would then be able to carve out a territory and truly become the first person to resist Great Qin.

What Zhao Bo couldn't accomplish, I, General Yu, will accomplish!

Recruit Soldiers, buy horses, and carve out a territory!

This is General Yu!

General Yu was tirelessly speaking, checking the time, it should be soon. He would build up the atmosphere a bit more, and once he live-streamed the spoils of this battle, people would join the Yu Family Army!

"General Yu, is there someone behind you?"

Players in the live stream vaguely saw a figure moving behind General Yu, but it was too dark to see clearly.

"Eh, how did you know?" General Yu said with a mysterious smile.

"Yesterday, a great big brother asked me to follow him. That big brother, whether in the game or in reality, is like this!" General Yu exaggeratedly gave a thumbs-up to show off.

"Brothers, I, General Yu, never lie! Join our Yu Family Army, and your future is limitless!"

"No, it looks like there's really someone behind you!"

"Behind you!"

The live stream began to flood with messages, and some people were very interested in the 'big brother behind the scenes,' constantly questioning General Yu.

"Yes, when have I, General Yu, ever lied to you? Believe me, joining General Yu is absolutely the right thing for you Brothers!" General Yu laughed loudly.

"No, it's behind you!"

"Turn around!"

General Yu saw the live stream flooding with messages and finally reacted. The hairs on his body instantly stood on end, and he tremblingly turned around.

He saw an old face, like a withered tree, staring at him sinisterly.

"Ghost!"

General Yu turned and ran, stumbling over a rock in his panic, falling head over heels, his loafers flying into the air.

"General Yu, you're truly naive!"

The players in the live stream were laughing so hard they couldn't breathe at this scene, but General Yu was utterly terrified at this moment.

Because no matter how many times he fell and got up, he would always see that sinister smiling face when he looked back.

General Yu fell eight times in a mere thirty meters. Feng Cai found this uninteresting, so he took two steps forward and grabbed General Yu by his collar, lifting him up.

"Little fellow, want to play with this old man?" A hoarse voice sounded, but General Yu did not reply.

Feng Cai was somewhat puzzled. He reached out to feel his breath, then sniffed his nose, covering his nose with a slight look of disgust, and dragged him back to the village with one hand.

"Lord, this old man has caught him," Feng Cai said.

"Alright, hurry back."

Lin Yue covered his nose with his hand, carefully looked at this legendary man, and then motioned for him to take him back.

Upon returning to the main hall, Pan Feng was seen standing guard over the brawny man.

"How is it?" Lin Yue asked.

Although the Yu Family Army was not strong, their numbers were large. If there was a slip-up and some escaped, it would cause a disturbance in the village.

"Reporting to Lord, all are imprisoned in the cells; not a single one was missed," Pan Feng replied with a smile.

"That's good. You've worked hard."

"Take him to the back and watch him," Lin Yue said, pointing at General Yu.

"Yes!" Feng Cai looked at the soft-skinned General Yu and smiled silently.

"Don't let him escape. I'll go see how the others are doing," Lin Yue said to Pan Feng, then walked out.
