Chapter 253 - Arrow In The Wind (2/2)

“Ah, yes, Eunuch An also co the Third Heavenly Layer in your cultivation in the art of archery at such an age He also mentioned that you could draw a powerful five-picul bow and stand against a hundred enemies alone with just a bow in your hands When you were escorting Lord Sun on his return journey, you killed over a hundred Blackwind Bandits alone and scared them out of their wits Is that true?” Eunuch Liu suddenly looked at Yan Liqiang with great interest

“This outcoh the united effort of all the guards!”

“Did you bring that powerful five-picul bow here?”

“I did I left it with the rhinodrake steed I rode here!”

“Little Li, you are a fast runner Go fetch his bow and a quiver of arrows…!”

At Eunuch Liu’s order, the little eunuch as rocking his recliner responded and immediately ran outside In just a short while, he returned with Yan Liqiang’s Horned Python Bow and a quiver of arrows

Eunuch Liu finally stood up fro and took out the Horned Python Bow After giving it a try, he nodded “Not bad This is indeed a powerful five-picul bow…” He handed the Horned Python Bow to Yan Liqiang after he finished speaking “How far can you shoot with this bow?”

“Within the range of a thousandreplied nonchalantly At this moment, he knew that the old eunuch wanted to assess his capabilities, so there was nothing for him to hide

“Oh? I would really love to see it!” Eunuch Liu raised his eyebrows and scanned around the courtyard In the end, his eyes lit up as he suddenly pointed into the distant sky “Do you see that kite? Do you think you can hit it?”

The kite that Eunuch Liu pointed to was at least six to seven hundredwas in Not only that, it was flying at an altitude of more than two hundred meters in the sky The s-shaped kite about the size of a ba breeze

Ordinary people could probably only barelyin the sky across this distance with their vision

Fro flown in Deer Villa Yan Liqiang wasn’t sure who had the ti a kite here either…

“I will try…” Yan Liqiang looked at the kite with his squinted eyes, then retrieved an arrow He weighed the arrow on his hand for aof the Horned Python Bow He slowly lifted his bow and aimed into the distant sky Just when he was about to pull the bowstring back, he suddenly stopped to ask a question “Oh right, Eunuch Liu A crowdin the area beneath that kite If I shoot like this, the arrow ht fall into the crowd and injure the innocent bystanders or even kill thes so thoroughly in spite of your young age!” The old eunuch laughed “Rest assured, I wouldn’t approve of such disgraceful acts like taking lives lightly either The areas beneath and behind the kite consist of Deer Villa’s forest There’s no one around so you need not worry…”

“Great!” Yan Liqiang nodded and promptly drew the Horned Python Bow open like a full ’s eyes narrowed as he imht seconds of silence, his bowstring vibrated and the arro out frorasp like a thunderbolt with a whoosh…

Under the watchful gaze of Eunuch Liu and his two little eunuchs in the courtyard,

the kite in the sky fluttered al’s arroas released It was then carried away by the wind and vanished without a trace

Yan Liqiang didn’t ai that was attached to it

Co was so fine that it was barely visible Over this distance, just being able to spot the kite in the sky was not an easy feat for ordinary people Most people wouldn’t even be able to see the string, let alone shoot it More i attached to it was alsosuch a target…

This required not only the Third Heavenly Layer in archery, but also great strength, good control, and ability to judge the surrounding environ wind speed, teht influence the arrow’s trajectory and its precision — alongside that frightening eyesight Not a single one of these conditions could be dispensed with

The Third Heavenly Layer in archery th exhibited in being able to hit the string below the kite far exceeded the standard of the Third Heavenly Layer in archery…

Thereleased the arrow, the courtyard instantly fell silent
