Chapter 878: Chapter 300 Retaliation [2 in 1]_2 Chapter 878: Chapter 300 Retaliation [2 in 1]_2 Thud!

Mo Yuantu spun through the air like a burst sack, hurtling outwards.

“Arrows!”

Fei Xinyu roared furiously.

Following a thunderous explosion, a massive arrow as thick as two thumbs, shot from a colossal bow of Profound Iron, slammed into Mo Yuantu’s chest.

Mo Yuantu had already been severely injured by Feng Ying. His vitality sharply depleted, he could no longer withstand the precise strike of the Profound Iron arrow. Instantly, a transparent, bowl-sized hole was blown through his chest. The arrow passed through him, trailing a stream of blood before embedding deeply into the ground, feather fletchings disappearing last.

In Mo Yuantu’s eyes now was only despair.

He could never have dreamed that in a battle between earthly nations, coming as a guest to make an easy wager would cost him his life!

If only he had known earlier…

But it was all too late!

Swish, swish, swish…

The soldiers of Great Qin did not advance upon the fallen enemy. Under strict military orders, they continued to mechanically draw and release their bows.

The dozen or so men from Supreme Mountain were all turned into porcupines, bodies riddled with arrows, lying on the ground. Trembling under the onslaught of the arrow rain, they resembled nothing more than discarded chunks of meat. Those emerging from the tents under the Last Quarter Moon did not even have a chance to react before they were struck down.

Clang!

After the gong resounded, all the soldiers simultaneously shouldered their bows, standing to attention.

Fei Xinyu strode forward, stopping at a distance and shouted, “Throw over the torches to give me a better look.”

No sooner had he spoken than several torches were tossed over, illuminating the pale, lifeless faces that would not close their eyes in death, and the bodies riddled with arrows.

Fei Xinyu laughed heartily, “I’m but a mere figure of no great importance, isn’t this the guy from the city, Wang Laosan? This youngster actually turned out to be a spy, how impressive! But bringing a few rotten potatoes and stinking eggs to seek death here, truly is overestimating oneself, courting one’s demise. Come now, burn them all for me!”

Even before his words had settled, several buckets of oil were poured over the bodies. Flames leaped high into the sky, engulfing Wang Laosan and his followers completely.

From start to finish, not a single soldier approached to take a look.

Even Fei Xinyu did not come closer. Despite knowing full well that the enemy was dead, he merely gave the order and then they were reduced to a pile of ashes.

The scribes beside the army documented the event quickly.

“…On such a year, such a month, such a day, within the army camp, traitors of Great Qin were slain, Wang Laosan of Yuezhou and his following of fifteen people!”

Irrefutable evidence.

Indeed, those killed were Wang Laosan and his men.

No matter who came looking for trouble later, they would not exist.

Mo Yuantu? Supreme Mountain?

Never heard of them!

As the blaze soared high into the sky, Fei Xinyu approached Feng Yin and said, “Many thanks to Hero Liu for lending a hand. We, the military of Yuezhou, offer our deepest gratitude!”

Feng Yin chuckled, “I’ve heard that Deputy Commander Fei has an excellent memory and is well-informed, recognizing me despite my mask. It seems my actions were somewhat underhanded.”

Fei Xinyu replied earnestly, “Hero Liu’s reputation is renowned throughout the world. I’ve long been acquainted with your name. It wasn’t just the mask… In any case, I can recognize you! Please, please, come inside, let’s talk in the tent.”

The officers around them were astonished.

What the heck.

This was the first time in their lives they had seen Fei Xinyu speak so civilly to someone – without a single curse!

A miracle indeed!

As he spoke, Fei Xinyu came over with great eagerness, presenting a broad black robe that he directly draped over Feng Yin’s shoulders. Under the cover of the black robe, he stealthily slipped a jade pendant into Feng Yin’s embrace, then respectfully invited him inside.

Feng Yin was momentarily stunned, sensing that the robe and jade pendant must serve some special purpose and were extraordinary. However, he could not immediately discern their specific effects.

Feeling curious, but knowing it wasn’t the right time to ask questions under so many watchful eyes, he followed Fei Xinyu into the tent.

Inside, Wu Tiejun was already waiting for them. He had dismissed those around him earlier, stepping forward with excitement, “Doctor Feng, you’ve arrived!”

He then noticed the black robe Feng Yin was wearing and exchanged a glance with Fei Xinyu, who nodded slightly.

Wu Tiejun’s gaze fixed as he waved a hand, “You, leave.”

Fei Xinyu rolled his eyes, “Make sure you know what you’re saying. The doctor was invited by me. If anyone should leave, it’s you. If you don’t want to go, just keep to the side.”

Wu Tiejun frowned, “Enough of your nonsense. I am in charge here!”

Fei Xinyu took a deep breath, “Stubborn fool, think carefully. This matter is best left to me!”

His voice carried an unusual weight.

Wu Tiejun glared back fiercely, “Leave!”

Fei Xinyu clenched his teeth, “You are the commander of an entire army. Make sure you comprehend the proper conduct!”

Wu Tiejun, exasperated as if trying to forge steel from iron, bit back, “Don’t speak!”

Fei Xinyu: “…”

Before he could say anything else, Wu Tiejun’s face hardened, “Fei Xinyu, heed my order!”

Fei Xinyu’s face contorted, but in the military camp, orders are paramount, and he had no choice but to stand at attention, “Sir!”

“I order you to go stand guard outside the gates immediately, without delay. Do not return unless summoned!”

As Wu Tiejun’s commanding token glinted in his hand, Fei Xinyu was left speechless with frustration.

“…”

“Why aren’t you leaving!” Wu Tiejun glared at him.

“…Yes, sir!”

Fei Xinyu turned and walked out without any further delay or hesitation.

No sooner had he left the tent than he began cursing wildly: “Damn you, you bastard! Son of a bitch! You stubborn mule! You’re oppressing me! To hell with you and your ancestors…”
