Chapter 476 (1/2)
Nine Soaring Phoenixes (3)
“Boss…”
Li Yue came as usual. She suppressed her torrent of laughter when she glanced at the three bowls of dumplings in front of Ye Lang as she felt that might be inappropriate.
“The usual. Got it!”
Li Yue ate her dumplings while peeking at Ye Lang. He wasn’t acting like a dignified person and was already gobbling up his third bowl.
“Little idiot, you’re eating too much. What if your stomach bloats?” Coldblood Five signalled with a worried expression. She thought that the three bowls were to impress Li Yue, and she would have to deal with the leftovers. She did not expect Ye Lang to actually finish them all!
“Don’t worry, it’s just three portions, I can handle it! I must show Li Yue that I am better than her!” Ye Lang replied.
“You’re holding a grudge because of this?” Coldblood Five asked.
“Yes!” To Coldblood Five’s shock, Ye Lang admitted without hesitation. However, she was relieved it was only over a small matter.
“...”
“Oh, I’m stuffed! …Wait, no… Just eighty percent full. Boss, another bowl to go please! “ Ye Lang ordered while patting his belly.
“...” Coldblood Five was speechless. Li Yue dropped her dumpling, gaping in shock. She could tell Ye Lang was forcing himself to eat.
Leaving with his breakfast, Ye Lang walked in front of Li Yue but didn’t utter a single word. Li Yue went to the shooting range in the afternoon. The situation was similar compared to the the day before. But there was something different today: the empty zone around her slot was gone.
Does this mean he’s not here?
However, Ye Lang did come. It was just that he was no newbie anymore. Therefore, there were archers by his side, separating them both.
Despite that, she was observing Ye Lang closely. And this time, she was surprised once more.
It was clear he’d made huge improvements! With this progress, she was sure he could surpass her any day!
He merely took one day to turn from rookie to a master, then perhaps surpass his teacher too! This made Li Yue feel frustrated and helpless.
Did he secretly train last night? I will have to ask him later.
Coldblood Five did not know that Ye Lang practiced in his dreams. And when she got her answer later, she would think that Ye Lang was lying.
Ye Lang’s skills rose by leaps and bounds. Even he didn’t expect to improve so quickly after reading the secret archery manual from the treasury.
He could now shoot spinning arrows, projectile shots, consecutive shots and he could even fire four shots simultaneously!
Others who originally thought they were masters in this skill felt as if they were a frog at the bottom of a well, oblivious to the wide sky above!
Ye Lang’s interest built up the following days as he made a bow for himself, along with some arrows with unique features.
Since he had nothing to do besides pursuing Li Yue, he decided to use the time wisely.
