Chapter 211: Deadly Bow

Translator: Myuu Editor: Myuu

The battlefield waits for no man!

By the time Yan Liqiang finished shooting a quiver of arrows, the Blackwind Bandits had closed in on them and they were only four hundred meters apart — it all happened in just the blink of an eye. Not only that, the distance between both parties was still rapidly diminishing.

Liang Yijie released an arrow and another Blackwind Bandit instantly fell off his galloping rhinodrake steed.

Right after that, the Blackwind Bandits launched their first shot. They released two arrows: one at Yan Liqiang, and the other at the party behind him.

Yan Liqiang didn’t panic at all when he sensed the approaching arrow because he already sensed it the moment it was locked on him. When the arrow was about to reach him, Yan Liqiang instantly swung at it with the longbow in his hand. The hard surface of the Horned Python Bow collided with that arrow with a bang, effectively knocking it to the ground.

However, someone among Sun Bingchen’s party wasn’t that fortunate. The moment Yan Liqiang diverted the arrow, he heard a groan from a guard behind him, followed by the sound of something heavy crashing to the ground. Sun Bingchen’s party finally suffered their first casualty.

“LIQIANG, WATCH OUT...!” Liang Yijie shouted from behind Yan Liqiang.

When Yan Liqiang felt a powerful gust of wind blowing against his face, he lowered his head without a second thought. As soon as he did, an arrow flew past and grazed his scalp.

Liang Yijie answered their opponent with another shot, and someone among the Blackwind Bandits immediately fell off their galloping rhinodrake steed.

Yan Liqiang already had his eyes on the two Blackwind Bandits who could shoot from four hundred meters away. Both of their faces were veiled and they kept their bodies low while they maneuvered their rhinodrake steeds. They moved extremely swiftly and cunningly behind a group of Blackwind Bandits who were charging forward. From the looks of it, their cultivation in archery had probably progressed into the Second Heavenly Layer.

In just the blink of an eye, another guard behind Yan Liqiang fell off his rhinodrake steed after being shot by both of them.

After two trades, the distance between the two parties rapidly decreased, coming within the firing range of normal archers. Everyone picked up their bows, regardless if they were Blackwind Bandits or the many guards around Yan Liqiang. They started attacking each other by raining down a torrent of arrows on their respective opponents...

People from both parties fell off their steeds upon getting hit by the arrows.

Yan Liqiang deflected a few arrows which came flying toward him with his Horned Python Bow. One of them had already lost its momentum by the time it reached him, like an arrow at the end of its flight. Sharp-sighted and deft, he instantly grabbed that arrow with his hand.

The moment he grabbed that arrow, a sharp noise broke through the air. As soon as Yan Liqiang lowered his head, an arrow flew past him, nearly grazing his cheek. Although there was some distance between the arrow and Yan Liqiang’s cheek, he could still feel the heat from the air resistance between the arrowhead and the air.

Yan Liqiang swept his glance across, only to discover that the arrow was again released by one of those two people from just now. As both parties drew closer to each other, the strength behind the arrows released by both sides was gradually increasing.

Before the person’s second arrow could reach his side, Yan Liqiang nocked the arrow in his grasp onto the Horned Python Bow. With the vibration of his bowstring, he sent the arrow flying out and shot the person’s forehead. The arrow pierced through his brain, knocking the person off his steed. Following that, Yan Liqiang hid himself nicely with the help of the stirrup. He suddenly slipped from his saddle to underneath Snowstorm Cloud’s abdomen. From a distance, it would seem as though Yan Liqiang had taken a hit from that arrow and had fallen off his rhinodrake steed.

When the remaining Blackwind Bandit that could threaten Yan Liqiang was about to shoot him, he was interrupted by an arrow from Liang Yijie.

Yan Liqiang, who was under his steed’s abdomen, maneuvered Snowstorm Cloud with his keen perception and once again evaded a few sporadic arrows. Sun Bingchen’s guards were already fighting the Blackwind Bandits at close quarters after colliding into each other.

“KILL...!” Countless battle cries erupted around Yan Liqiang.

Two Blackwind Bandits charged toward Yan Liqiang from both sides. The shiny scimitars in their hands were raised high up in the air...

At this moment, no one expected Yan Liqiang, who had been hiding under his steed, to suddenly release his feet from the stirrups and separate himself from Snowstorm Cloud.

At this very moment, Yan Liqiang utilized the ‘Nine Palace Wind Shadow Steps’ technique to its maximum potential. If it wasn’t for Yan Liqiang attaining the highest realm in the ‘Nine Palace Wind Shadow Steps’ technique and his enhanced physical agility, he couldn’t possibly have performed such a ridiculous action.

Yan Liqiang jumped off Snowstorm Cloud and started dashing madly toward the two Blackwind Bandits like a gale with the momentum from Snowstorm Cloud’s traveling speed. Before one of the Blackwind Bandits could even react, the shortsword in Yan Liqiang’s hand had slashed across the abdomen of the rhinodrake steed beneath him when they passed each other.

The shortsword opened up a horrible wound about three feet long on the rhinodrake steed’s abdomen. The hot blood, which instantly spilled out from the rhinodrake steed like a basin of water, splashed on Yan Liqiang.

The rhinodrake steed collapsed, but Yan Liqiang didn’t stop sprinting. The moment the steed crashed onto the ground, his other hand had already grabbed the quiver full of arrows attached to its saddle...

Yan Liqiang continued sprinting madly without losing speed with a quiver of arrows in his grip. He struck out with the shortsword in his hand, instantly impaling it into the body of the other Blackwind Bandit, thus causing him to instantly fall off his steed. Yan Liqiang then caught up to Snowstorm Cloud. He grabbed its tail with one hand and once again returned onto Snowstorm Cloud’s back with a powerful jump.

From the moment Yan Liqiang jumped off his steed, killed two people in a row during his sprint and snatched a quiver of arrows to when he grabbed Snowstorm Cloud’s tail and returned onto its back, the entire process was done in one go with quick and nimble movements. Before the other Blackwind Bandits could react, Yan Liqiang had a quiver of arrows with him once again as he drew his deadly bow. He shot the other Blackwind Bandit, who shot his comrade off his steed earlier and hid behind the others, with just one arrow.

The Blackwind Bandits who were nearby simply couldn’t believe their own eyes. However, their instincts still urged them to continue charging toward Yan Liqiang.

Whoosh... whoosh... whoosh...!

Yan Liqiang released three arrows using the shortest amount of time, once again knocking three Blackwind Bandits who had come twenty meters within his radius off the back of their steeds, taking each of their lives with just a single arrow.

Under the fearful gazes of the remaining Blackwind Bandits, Yan Liqiang turned his steed around. He distanced himself from the group and once again trained the deadly bow in his hands on those Blackwind Bandits...
