Free Web NovelChapter 356: Chapter 352: A Terrifying Arrow
A young woman rode atop a colossal, blood-red tiger. She was clad in armor and wore an exquisite mask, revealing only a pair of large, bright, obsidian eyes.
As she spoke, she raised a delicate hand, pointing directly at Lin Hao in the sky.
The young man beside her heard her, and his eyes lit up as he looked to the sky.
"He’s actually still alive!" His voice was tinged with a hint of surprise.
Just a moment ago, he hadn’t paid the person in the air any mind. After all, anyone a powerful expert could use as a weapon was, by definition, an insignificant character.
And an insignificant character should have had absolutely no chance of survival after smashing through several giant boulders.
But when the young woman spoke, he took a closer look and realized he had misjudged.
That insignificant character was actually still alive!
The moment the young woman finished speaking, a giant of a man, a full three meters tall, stepped out from behind them and raised a greatbow.
The greatbow was a meter long. As Moshan drew the bow, both the bow and his body let out a loud crack. ƒreewebηoveℓ.com
The muscles on Moshan’s right arm were exposed. As he drew the bowstring, his entire right arm bulged, displaying an explosive power that was a stunning sight.
In an instant, he had drawn the bow into a full moon, and a sharp arrow shot from the string.
BANG!
The moment the arrow left the string, a giant boulder beside Moshan shattered.
The sharp arrow tore through the air, giving off an invincible and unstoppable aura.
The arrow flew low, almost grazing the heads of the people on the Cangyun Battlefield.
The arrow was incredibly fast. Everyone in its path was knocked aside by the shockwave. In its wake, yellow sand swirled like a mad dragon, creating a majestic and terrifying spectacle.
"Lord Moshan truly is the number one warrior of our Marquis Xi’s Imperial Guard. He actually drew the Barbarian Dragon Bow, which no one else can pull, into a full moon." Someone behind Moshan exclaimed in admiration.
This was one of Marquis Mo’s personal guards.
The young man standing at the very front was named Marquis Mo. He was the only son of the Mo Yun Kingdom’s Monarch, the true heir to the throne.
The young woman was named Yunxi. She and Marquis Mo were full-blooded siblings, and she was the Princess Moyun.
Back in Your Highness’ Mansion in the Imperial City, the number one beauty of Moyun that Duan Xinyu had spoken of was Yunxi.
The Mo Yun Kingdom only had two surnames: men were surnamed Mo, and women were surnamed Yun.
Both of these were the royal surnames in Moyun. As a result, the people of Moyun were exceptionally united, and their Monarch was held high above, worshipped by them as a god.
This unit was named the Marquis Xi’s Imperial Guard. The name was derived from the two of them, but strangely, it was Yunxi’s name that came before Marquis Mo’s.
At this moment, one of Marquis Mo’s personal guards spoke up, and another immediately added, "I remember the last time the Barbarian Dragon Bow was only drawn halfway, and it still killed an expert at the Peak of the Elemental Realm. Does that mean this person’s cultivation has reached the Soul Gathering Realm?!"
The other personal guard said, somewhat shocked.
He couldn’t help but be shocked. If an insignificant character like this was already at the Soul Gathering Realm, then one could only imagine the cultivation level of the masters from the Cangnan Empire who were yet to arrive.
"The distance is too great, so it’s unclear. But he will die, without a doubt. Lord Moshan’s arrows have never missed," the guard who had spoken first said with conviction.
The other personal guard fell silent. He saw the man falling from the sky fly right into the path of Moshan’s arrow.
Then, the figure was sent flying backward by the arrow.
At first, everyone who came into contact with the man’s back was knocked to the ground, vomiting blood. Several of them never got back up.
"What a terrifying arrow! Its aftershock alone can kill a Martial Artist! I wonder how much further he’ll be sent flying," one of Marquis Mo’s personal guards said in utter shock.
"I hope he stops. Several of the people killed by this arrow were warriors from our Mo Yun Kingdom," said another.
"How can a dead man stop on his own?"
As soon as the words left his mouth, this guard’s eyes widened abruptly.
He was stunned to see that on the Cangyun Battlefield, the man who should have been dead suddenly stopped, then violently swung his right arm.
"Son of a bitch, am I seeing things?!" The other personal guard’s eyes also flew wide open, and he swore loudly.
What did he see?
With a flick of his right arm, the man sent the arrow Moshan had just shot flying back at a speed no less than it had before.
Behind the arrow, yellow sand billowed, swirling into a mad dragon. The spectacle was earth-shattering!
It was a perfect manifestation of speed and power.
’Is... is he even fucking human?!’
This personal guard simply couldn’t believe what he was seeing.
It wasn’t just the guard; Yunxi, Marquis Mo, and Moshan were all shocked beyond words.
Especially Moshan.
The Barbarian Dragon Bow was made from the tendon of a Barbaric Dragon. Though not a Spiritual Artifact, it surpassed one.
But the arrow he had shot with the full power of the Barbarian Dragon Bow had not only failed to kill his target, but the target had actually returned it in such a manner.
A flick of the arm, and its power and speed were comparable to the Barbarian Dragon Bow. How heaven-defying was that!
Moshan was utterly astounded. He stared blankly at the arrow coming toward him, not only forgetting to shoot back, but even forgetting to dodge.
He only reacted at the very last moment.
He tilted his head, and the sharp arrow grazed his cheek as it flew past.
PFFT!
The arrow sent a spray of blood into the air.
Moshan stumbled back three steps before steadying himself. Even the Devil Beasts ridden by Marquis Mo and Yunxi took a step back.
BOOM!
The next moment, a tremendous roar echoed from behind them. They turned to look and saw the peak of a distant mountain explode.
HISS!
Marquis Mo’s two personal guards sucked in a cold breath. This was too terrifying!
That guy was short and small, yet he possessed such power. It completely overturned their understanding of the world.
It wasn’t just them; on the other side of Jumo Ridge, there was similar shock.
Ling Xiao and the others had arrived at Jumo Ridge long ago. They had seen that last arrow clearly.
The opposing side had fired an arrow, followed by yellow sand swirling like a mad dragon. The power of that single shot was immense.
They had also seen with perfect clarity the moment the arrow reached Lin Hao and sent him flying backward.
To be honest, their hearts had been in their throats.
When they later saw that Lin Hao was fine, their tense hearts finally settled.
They had originally thought Lin Hao would return, but the next scene left them stunned.
With a single swing, the arrow shattered a mountain peak. Such immense strength was beyond their imagination.
"Brother Hao not only caught Moshan’s arrow, he threw it back! And its speed and power weren’t the least bit inferior to his! Am I dreaming?!" Lin Tian’s eyes widened. He then fiercely pinched the dazed Lin Yuan next to him.
Although he only pinched a bit of skin on the back of Lin Yuan’s hand, he didn’t hold back, and the back of Lin Yuan’s hand instantly turned red.
But Lin Yuan seemed not to have felt it at all.
"So I really am dreaming," Lin Tian said, then pinched himself.
As a result, the pain made him grimace.
Lin Tian vigorously rubbed his hand, but out of the corner of his eye, he saw a valiant-looking female warrior sitting upright on a Cloud-Stepping Beast not far away.
That woman’s surname was Duan. She was not only the empire’s eldest princess but also a Saint Master of the Saint Institute.
However, Lin Tian felt no fear in his heart.
On the contrary, if anything were to happen to Lin Hao, Lin Tian wouldn’t let her off the hook, no matter what her status was.
Because she was the one who had just thrown Lin Hao.
After glaring fiercely at her, Lin Tian came back to his senses and looked toward Lin Hao on the Cangyun Battlefield again.
And surprisingly, his glare was not noticed by Duan Mushuang.
This was somewhat illogical.
