"I'm the one who killed the Black Wind Stronghold members!"

Wang Xiaoyi rode his horse for about ten meters before dismounting, tying the horse to a tree, and turning back to fight the bandits.

The low-level henchmen, seeing their comrades being instantly killed, lost morale and halted their advance.

Seeing his men terrified, the third leader decided to face Wang Xiaoyi himself to boost morale.

[-2640] A seemingly ordinary slash, and the third leader's health bar dropped by a significant amount.

-180, -300, -360

For the third leader, a distance of a dozen meters was the distance between life and death.

Before the third leader even reached Wang Xiaoyi, his health had already decreased by a quarter.

The more they fought, the more alarmed the third leader became, as his health was dropping faster and faster.

"The wind's getting strong, let's get out of here!" the third leader shouted.

At this moment, the third leader's health was less than a quarter. With a loud shout, his whole body was enveloped in a layer of blood light, and his speed increased dramatically as he fled into the depths of the dense forest.

"What a coincidence! I know that trick too!"

With the activation of 【Blood-Infused Pupils】, Wang Xiaoyi's movement speed was already higher than that of the Third Leader, allowing him to strike first despite being behind. His 10-meter-long blade of energy directly slashed at the Third Leader.

【-】

With 100% critical hit rate, the combined power of Blade Aura and Blood Infusion, the remaining health can be wiped out in one strike.

[Ding! You have gained some experience points!]

[Ding! You have received 100 silver coins!]

[Ding! You have obtained 1 Xuanhua Battle Axe (Gold)!]

When the remaining henchmen saw their third leader killed, they trembled like leaves, threw down their weapons, and ran away as fast as they could.

Wang Xiaoyi wasn't in a hurry. He leisurely picked up the fallen weapons. Even a few flies are still meat, and he could use the passive effects of [Revival Wind] and [Resilience] to recover some health.

It was obvious that Wang Xiaoyi had no health potions in his backpack, only the three [Instant Recovery Potions] he had obtained during the closed beta.

"Spending money is impossible, I will never spend money in my life!"

"Why not save the gold coins for barbecue tonight? It'll taste better!"

Wang Xiaoyi muttered to himself as he picked up the equipment.

"I wonder how much these items can sell for. It would be great if there was a trading market!"

Two flowers bloom, each representing a different branch.

"Something terrible has happened! The third leader is dead!"

"Second Master, come out and take a look!"

Black Wind Stronghold had three leaders in total, but at this time, only the second leader remained.

The second-in-command held a goose feather fan and wore a blue robe, dressed like a scholar.

What's the matter?

"Something terrible has happened! Second Master, Third Master is dead!"

"Who killed him?!" The second-in-command was shocked upon hearing this.

"A man stormed up the mountain and taunted us! The third leader insisted on a one-on-one duel with him, but in one careless move, he was killed!"

"Second Master, you must avenge the Third Master!"

"Are you sure there's only one person coming?" the second-in-command asked again.

"It's absolutely true, there's only one person!"

"I am but a mere individual. Tell all the brothers to follow me out of the stronghold to meet the enemy. Do not let Black Wind Stronghold lose its prestige!" The second-in-command was confident and in control.

The henchmen who returned to report the news made no mention of how terrified they were by Wang Xiaoyi; they only said that the third leader was a reckless man who insisted on a one-on-one fight.

The second-in-command always looked down on the third-in-command, believing he only had the courage of a common man, and in addition, the second-in-command did indeed have some skills.

By sheer coincidence, when Wang Xiaoyi arrived at the entrance of Black Wind Stronghold, a group of bandits were all standing neatly at the gate.

"Who goes there? State your name immediately! Black Wind Stronghold does not kill nameless nobodies!" The second-in-command, waving his goose feather fan, walked to the front of the group and asked.

"I am your father!"

"I am your father!"

"Son, son, I'm your father!"

"Son, son, quickly call him Dad!"

As the saying goes, if you don't take advantage of a good deal, you're a fool!

Wang Xiaoyi even started singing as he was talking!

The underlings were also puzzled. Had the second-in-command led them out to reunite with their relatives? Surprisingly, the second-in-command's father was remarkably well-preserved; he looked even younger than them!

"This is an insult to scholarship! An insult to scholarship!"

"Brothers, take him down!"

After the second-in-command finished speaking, red halos appeared under the feet of the henchmen around him. Like madmen, they raised their broadswords and charged towards Wang Xiaoyi.

"Is this a group buff skill?" Wang Xiaoyi asked curiously.

At a distance of 50 meters, the henchmen arrived in the blink of an eye, and in an instant, Wang Xiaoyi was stabbed multiple times.

[-1] If the defense is not broken, it will deal one point of damage by default.

[-1]

[-1]

[Rock Plate Armor] Passive trigger, providing an additional 100 points of defense, at which point Wang Xiaoyi's defense reaches a total of 395!

"This buff effect is nothing special!"

[-2200] is still a one-hit kill.

The more than 100 henchmen who came this time soon turned into dead souls under Wang Xiaoyi's blade.

"Second Master, the attackers are fierce. Why don't we go back to the stronghold first?" suggested one of the Second Master's trusted men.

"What's there to be afraid of? Even if he gets close to me, he can't kill me with one strike!" The second leader was not worried at all.
