Chapter 315: Chapter 39 The Terror of Superior Martial Arts_2

Because they realized that no matter how they tried to dodge the incoming arrows,

they could not escape the fate of being struck.

All manner of evasions would still result in the arrows hitting their mark, killing them instantly.

Elsewhere,

Liu Zhaonan and Liuu San Sheng retreated from the battlefield and began to secretly observe from the sidelines.

“So powerful!” Liu Zhaonan couldn’t help but mutter as he saw the arrows descend again.

“Truly strong!” Liuu San Sheng, standing next to him, also watched with a complex expression.

He clearly saw that as the arrows fell,

the enemies that had given them immense trouble were now easily slaughtered.

Each arrow that fell could easily pierce through armor and claim a life.

Moments later,

no more arrows fell, and all of the Black Mountain Army in the valley had turned into cold, lifeless corpses.

“Brother Liuu, what do we do now?” Liu Zhaonan asked from the side.

“Go over and thank him!” Liuu San Sheng said, looking towards Jiang Ning, who was coming down from the cliff top.

Hearing Liuu San Sheng’s words, Liu Zhaonan immediately nodded.

“Everyone, come along!” Liu Zhaonan said, turning his head back.

Those behind hurriedly followed their steps.

Zhao Hu, whose arm had been severed, could only bear the pain and keep up.

…

As soon as Jiang Ning and Xie Xiaojiu landed, they saw a group of people quickly approaching them.

“Commander Jiang, at your service!” Liu Zhaonan was the first to salute.

“Commander Jiang, at your service!” Liuu San Sheng also saluted with a complex look on his face.

He remembered that not long ago, he had visited his sister, Liuu Wanwan, and her family.

At that time, he received a request from his brother-in-law, Jiang Li, to help Jiang Ning gain an opportunity to join the Inspection Office.

He could only bow and salute before Jiang Ning now.

And if it weren’t for Jiang Ning’s assistance today, he felt that they would have completely perished here.

This meant that his life was saved by Jiang Ning today.

“Any problem with taking these bodies back for me?” Jiang Ning asked.

“No problem!” Liu Zhaonan immediately patted his chest and said, “Please rest assured, Commander Jiang. We will take care of the battlefield cleanup, and all the war merits belonging to you will be recorded without omission.”

“Mmm,” Jiang Ning nodded.

The next moment,

he departed with Xie Xiaojiu.

Only after Jiang Ning’s figure had completely disappeared,

did Liu Zhaonan exhale lightly and touched his forehead, where no sweat existed.

“Brother Liuu, the pressure from Commander Jiang is really strong!”

Liuu San Sheng also agreed with a solemn nod.

“His strength is unfathomable!”

“Unfathomable indeed!” Liu Zhaonan nodded vehemently.

Recalling the events that had just unfolded, he felt Jiang Ning’s strength might not even be less than those four commanders with extraordinary backgrounds.

On the other hand,

Jiang Ning also quietly rejoiced in his heart.

In another Sumeru Ring in his possession now lay three bodies.

These were the three who had charged at him earlier.

Upon a simple investigation,

he discovered that all three were Martial Artists at the Refining Muscle level,

meaning they were all Martial Artists of the Seventh Grade.

According to the terms set by the Inspection Office,

each Seventh Grade Martial Artist of the Black Mountain Army eradicated was worth five thousand Contribution Points.

With three Seventh Grade Martial Artists total, that came to fifteen thousand Contribution Points from this alone,

which nearly satisfied a third of the fifty thousand Contribution Points he needed.

This meant he was close to collecting one-third of the Contribution Points needed for the Dragon Ascending Pill.

“If you include the deeds from the valley, the Contribution Points could reach almost twenty thousand,” Jiang Ning contemplated internally.

Moments later,

the two found the light boat, and they departed Beiqiu Mountain.

…

By evening that day,

at the Inspection Office,

“Brother Jiang, truly a great achievement!” Ye Qiu walked towards Jiang Ning with a hearty laugh.

Jiang Ning asked, “Brother Ye, have all been verified?”

“Verified!” Ye Qiu nodded, then continued, “Three Seventh Grade Martial Artists, seven Eighth Grade Martial Artists, twenty-one Ninth Grade Martial Artists.”

As he spoke, Ye Qiu took a cloth bag from his waist and tossed it towards Jiang Ning.

“Brother Jiang, here are your Contribution Points. Please count them.”

Upon hearing this, Jiang Ning took the cloth bag with a slight smile.

Then he opened the bag and counted.

A total of nineteen thousand five hundred fifty Contribution Points, already exceeding the one-third threshold needed for the Dragon Ascending Pill.

Seeing Jiang Ning had finished counting, Ye Qiu asked, “Does it match up?”

“It matches!” Jiang Ning nodded his head.

Seeing this, Ye Qiu couldn’t help but express admiration.

“Brother Jiang is not simple at all!”

“To think that you could single-handedly take down five of the Black Mountain Cavalry among this batch of the Black Mountain Army!”

Jiang Ning simply smiled, “Just luck!”

Ye Qiu countered, “It’s not just luck! Brother Jiang’s archery skills are simply peerless! I didn’t expect the Wind Thunder Arrow Skill that you exchanged for recently to have reached such a profound level.”

…

Outside the Inspection Office,

“Sir!”

Xie Xiaojiu immediately greeted as Jiang Ning lifted the curtain of his sedan.

Jiang Ning nodded, “Let’s go back.”

“Yes!” Xie Xiaojiu nodded.

As the carriage began to move, Jiang Ning also sunk into thought.

He had just exchanged brief pleasantries with Ye Qiu before departing.

From his conversation with Ye Qiu, he immediately understood.

The materials he had exchanged at the Internal Affairs Office had no secret to them.

The Wind Thunder Arrow Skill had already been known to them.

After pondering for a moment,

Jiang Ning shook his head.

Let it be!

If they know, they know.

These things being known by others was not a matter of great concern.

Even if they knew of his Martial Arts Realm, they did not know his true combat strength!
