Your Majesty said that my life is worthless, so why are you crying when I increase my troops?

"Xia Mingyuan, you are so brave!"

"You dared to break into my Cold Blade Village with only two guards!"

An angry shout rang out from all around, and Yan Biao, accompanied by four or five strong men, flashed out from behind the screen at the back of the hall.

Yan Biao's face was gloomy and his eyes were as sharp as knives as he looked Xia Mingyuan up and down.

Xia Mingyuan sneered and glanced at Yan Biao with disdain, "Your Cold Blade Village isn't some hidden danger, so why can't this commander go there?"

"Hahaha!"

As soon as Xia Mingyuan finished speaking, Yan Biao burst into laughter.

"Xia Mingyuan, our Cold Blade Village is certainly not a den of dragons and tigers, but it's also not a place where just any cat or dog can come."

"In the dragon's den and tiger's lair, dragons and tigers can kill people, and my Cold Blade Village is no exception!"

Xia Mingyuan curled his lips and nodded slightly, "Master Yan is right. After all, stray dogs on the roadside can also bite people to death."

"You..." Yan Biao flew into a rage after hearing Xia Mingyuan's mild mockery. "You sharp-tongued brat! Let me see if you have what it takes!"

"Old Five, teach him a lesson!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a burly man jumped out. He was eight feet tall and weighed more than two hundred pounds. He was wearing a single piece of clothing, revealing his hairy chest. He stood in front of Xia Mingyuan like an iron tower.

"Boy, let's have a few moves with grandpa." Lao Wu grinned, pulled out two machetes from his waist, and rushed towards Xia Mingyuan at a rapid speed.

Xia Mingyuan narrowed his eyes slightly and stood there without dodging or evading.

Seeing this, Yan Biao sneered and turned to look at the people in the village, "You all saw it, right? This kid must have been so scared by Lao Wu that he forgot to dodge."

When everyone heard this, they burst into laughter.

"Boss, we thought this princess's guard commander was so powerful, but we didn't expect him to be this ugly."

"With such little ability, he dares to come to our Cold Blade Village. I will take his life and force the group down the mountain to retreat!"

While they were talking, they saw that the machete in Lao Wu's hand had already chopped towards Xia Mingyuan's arm.

As the knife was about to fall, Xia Mingyuan's arm was about to be chopped off on the spot.

Suddenly, a figure passed in front of everyone.

Li Ming drew out his sword and stood in front of Xia Mingyuan. At the same time, the long sword in his hand accurately pierced Lao Wu's neck at an extremely tricky angle.

"boom!"

The machete in Lao Wu's hand fell to the ground, and blood gushed out from his neck like a fountain.

He widened his eyes and looked at Li Mingyi in front of him in disbelief.

The next moment, the mountain-like body collapsed and he died on the spot.

After Li Mingyi dealt with Lao Wu, he retreated behind Xia Mingyuan with an expressionless face, as if nothing had ever happened.

quiet!

The entire hall was dead silent.

Everyone in Handao Village raised their heads, their mouths wide open, stunned.

In the mountain stronghold, Lao Wu's strength was enough to be the fifth in command, but he was killed on the spot before he could even survive a single round at the hands of Xia Mingyuan's guards!

What kind of strength does this person have?

The air was filled with a strong smell of blood, which made people feel nauseous.

"Xia Mingyuan, you dare to kill people in my Handao Village!"

Yan Biao gritted his teeth, a cold light flashing in his eyes.

Xia Mingyuan brushed off the dust that splashed on his body, raised his head, and sneered.

"Yan Biao, you should be thankful that this person didn't hurt me."

"Today, I wanted to give you face by coming to your Cold Blade Village in person, but you don't know your place and are actually trying to show off your power to me, the commander?"

"If this commander gets hurt even a little bit here, your entire Cold Blade Village will be wiped out!"

Xia Mingyuan's cold tone made Yan Biao's face look particularly ugly.

"Boss, this guy doesn't take us seriously. Let's go together, brothers, kill him and avenge Lao Wu!"

Behind Yan Biao, Xu Gang, the third in command of Handao Village, drew his sword and was about to step forward.

"slow!"

Yan Biao raised his hand to stop everyone and gave Xia Mingyuan a half-smile.

"Commander Xia, a strong general has no weak soldiers. The men under your command are quite capable."

"Forget it, Lao Wu has a bad fate, I'll give you a favor."

"Let me ask you, what's going on with Xujiazhuang? Why would they cut off the financial resources of our Cold Blade Village for no reason?"

Xia Mingyuan frowned and asked knowingly, "What's going on?"

"The people of Xujiazhuang sold their land to me. What does it have to do with your Handao Village?"

"Xia Mingyuan, don't act stupid in front of this commander!"

Yan Biao's voice suddenly rose a few notes. "No matter how powerful the merchants and gentry are, they all know that they will not buy the land from the villages near Xujiazhuang because they have to give Handao Village a favor!"

"Now that you've bought the land, you're still stationing troops there, eyeing my Cold Blade Village covetously. Furthermore, my second-in-command in Cold Blade Village also died at the hands of your soldiers. Don't you owe me an explanation?"

Xia Mingyuan sneered when he heard this.

"Yan Biao, are you still that three-year-old child? What does the land I, Xia Mingyuan, bought have to do with your Handao Village?"

"As for your people coming to my territory to rob, being inferior in skills and being killed by me, just like that idiot just now, what explanation do you want?"

"Xia Mingyuan, don't go too far!"

Yan Biao's face was distorted, and he felt like his lungs were about to explode!

"Don't forget, the merchants that Kunlun An sent with your protection are all in my hands. You are now also in the pocket of my Handao Village."

"If you don't want Kunlun Security to lose its reputation, you should die and don't blame my Yan Biao for being ruthless."

As Yan Biao finished speaking, dozens of bandits holding steel knives suddenly rushed in from outside the stronghold, each with a bad look on their face.

Different from the minions in the mountain stronghold, these people are obviously specially trained elites!

"Yan Biao, are you threatening me again?"

Xia Mingyuan sneered, "Open your eyes and look down the mountain. If the Japanese commander were to have an accident here, how many lives would you have left?"

"Then let's give it a try!"

"I, Yan Biao, am not afraid of fear!"

Veins bulged on Yan Biao's forehead and he glared at Xia Mingyuan fiercely.

"If you give up the land of Xujiazhuang and the nearby villages now and withdraw your soldiers, I, the Cold Blade Village, will forgive the past."

"From today onwards, your Kunlun Security convoy will have unimpeded access within Hanyang. My Cold Blade Village will allow all of them to pass!"

"If we really want to fight to the death, all of us from the Cold Blade Camp will charge down the mountain. You three or four of us can't stop us brothers. Once I escape, I will make sure your Kunlun Security convoy never passes through Hanyang again!"

Upon hearing this, Xia Mingyuan shook his head slightly, "Yan Biao, compared to your conditions, I think it would be easier to destroy the Cold Blade Village!"
