Chapter 496 (1/2)

The Hero And The Damsel (3)

This was the only question that flashed through the unfortunate man’s mind, the last thought he would ever have. He would have to bring this question to ask Death himself!

Many people present did not know how he did it either, including Li Yue. It was unbelievable, she didn’t understand.

Unless there were two people? Then why didn’t she notice?

In reality, there were indeed two people among the trees- Ye Lang and Coldblood Five, but Ye Lang had shot the two arrows on his own without her help.

Even Coldblood Five, who’d witnessed everything, was surprised at how incredible his archery skills were.

First, she saw him shoot an arrow in one direction, then sprint in another direction. At that moment, she couldn’t guess what he intended to do.

However, she understood when she saw that his arrow did not fly in a straight line, instead in an arc. It flew out of the forest to the campsite towards Li Xiande and the rest.

When Li Xiande and the rest saw it, it was still flying in an arc but the angle was a lot smaller so they did not notice.

In reality, he didn’t have time to anyway because Ye Lang then used an arrow to kill one of his men within seconds.

If she hadn’t witnessed this with her own eyes, Coldblood Five would never have believed that his archery skills had improved thousandfold. And he was just using an ordinary bow and arrow without alchemy! It was unbelievable!

Then, he continued to release arrows from the dark but they were less effective because everyone was already on guard and they had eyes in all directions.

Very quickly after the previous arrow, they’d formed a circle, backs facing the centre of the circle so they could see in every direction.

However, even with that, Ye Lang still successfully killed two people. In the end, there were only 3 people left including Li Xiande.

The two arrows he’d fired were no longer stealth arrows. While they flew in plain sight, his victims were still unable to dodge in time!

Li Yue had seen him use this magnificent technique at the range but never thought it was this powerful- the Nine Soaring Phoenixes.

Nine arrows appeared from different angles at the same time, there was nowhere to hide!

It was beautiful, the way the nine arrows flew like phoenixes…

Obviously, Ye Lang hadn’t stepped out of the forest since the beginning. That was why Li Xiande and his men could only remain in defence and could not retaliate. This was the most fatal disadvantage they had.

At this point, Li Xiande was losing his mind. He never would’ve imagined to end up like this. He was a Di Earth Level fighter for goodness’ sake! Now he was no better than a trapped animal waiting to be hunted.

It wasn’t that he didn’t want to retaliate-- he could not determine Ye Lang’s position and the arrows were a looming threat to him. It would be too risky to enter the forest!

Thank goodness he didn’t too. If he did, he would be dead by now, for Coldblood Five would’ve dealt with him within seconds.

Under such circumstances, no human was a match for Coldblood Five!

“Get the hell out of there!” roared Li Xiande.

Li Yue was almost laughing now, upon seeing Li Xiande being so mad. She was no longer worried, fully understanding that Ye Lang had the absolute upper hand!
