Chapter 370: Chapter 146: Spiritual Energy Vision! The Black Lotus Faction Leader!_2
Wind Thunder Archery, Wind Thunder Linked Beads!
In the process, Su Changkong executed his arrow technique in rapid succession, infusing robust Qi and Blood and True Qi into each arrow, firing three arrows consecutively, each arrow a Chasing Soul Arrow!
“Thud, thud, thud!”
The sound of flesh being torn asunder rang out simultaneously as three barbarians, fleeing in different directions, were almost simultaneously struck by the arrows. Pierced and torn by the formidable arrows, they crashed to the ground, dead on the spot.
These barbarians, most of whom were above the second tier in the Qi-Blood Realm, were terrifying entities to ordinary people and some smaller county towns, practically unstoppable. But to Su Changkong, they were no different from common thieves—either way, a single arrow could kill them!
“Run, run, run!”
The consecutive deaths of their comrades sent the remaining three barbarians fleeing for their lives, their hearts chilled with fear. Was this Hong Zhenxiang so terrifying? Not only did they not know how he had detected their identities, but he also possessed this transcendent archery skill!
Su Changkong wasn’t worried that displaying his archery skills would reveal that he was impersonating Hong Zhenxiang.
Firstly, few had seen Su Changkong’s archery, and most of those who had were now dead.
Secondly, every member of the Dafeng Iron Cavalry was trained in archery. Commander Hong Zhenxiang was no exception; he was proficient, though not exceptional. However, it wouldn’t be beyond reason for a martial arts prodigy like Zhenxiang to have improved his archery to an extremely adept level over the past decade!
Two of the barbarians, rather cleverly, fled into nearby shops and houses, where the buildings could shield them. Even a godlike archer would have difficulty aiming through such cover.
“Still hiding? Just like a mouse with its tail on fire!”
But this was of no concern to Su Changkong. With his mind focused, he sensed the flow of Spiritual Energy, much like a snake’s heat vision, allowing him to easily see vague human figures even behind obstructions.
“Thud, thud!”
Su Changkong drew his bow in rapid succession, firing two arrows that pierced through the houses and walls, killing the two barbarians who had fled into the buildings on the spot!
“Damn! Is this Hong Zhenxiang some kind of monster?”
The sole remaining man, dressed simply yet tall and solid, was scared out of his wits. He had heard of the extraordinary Hong Zhenxiang, who had few equals in the Qi-Blood Realm, but he never imagined the level of terror, killing them as easily as slicing through vegetables!
With clenched teeth, the tall man grabbed two passersby to use as shields, hoping to force Su Changkong’s hand!
However, Su Changkong’s movements didn’t pause for even a second. His arms vibrated slightly, and with a subtle and skillful force, he loosed an arrow. Instead of flying straight, the arrow traced a curve through the air, bypassing the two hostages and heading towards the tall man’s head from the right.
“Thud!”
The tall man hadn’t anticipated this move. The curving arrow pierced through the side of his head, blood spraying as he crumpled to the ground with wide eyes.
“Ahh, ahh!”
The two people who had been used as human shields, though unharmed, were nonetheless deeply terrified, screaming as they collapsed onto the ground, their legs giving way.
Su Changkong’s Wind Thunder Archery had reached the 8th tier upon arriving in Dafeng State City, and during his previous encounter with the Chasing Soul Arrow wielder Xiao Bili, he had covertly learned the other’s advanced technique of making arrows turn mid-flight, which led to a breakthrough in his own archery skills.
With Su Changkong’s current potential value, attaining the 9th tier in Wind Thunder Archery was likely only a matter of time!
“Barbarians… were those killed just now the infiltrating barbarian warriors? The numbers match up exactly! Hong Zhenxiang came to kill these barbarian warriors!”
The commanders and soldiers of Baorui County City, watching the astonishing events unfold in such a short time, were all shocked, piecing together what had happened.
The seven or eight individuals who appeared ordinary but clearly possessed considerable martial prowess made it easy for them to connect the dots to the recent disturbances caused by a group of barbarian warriors near Dafeng State City!
No wonder Hong Zhenxiang had come here—it turned out he had obtained their movements and intelligence, and came to exterminate them!
These warriors, handpicked elites from the Ferocious Wolf Clan, were supposed to wreak havoc in Dafeng State City, but instead of creating the expected chaos, they barely caused a ripple before being entirely exterminated by Su Changkong!
And none were more shocked than Di Hen—he knew that this ‘Hong Zhenxiang’ was actually an imposter, that he was Mr. Su!
“Mr. Su… is so powerful? He’s certainly no less formidable than Commander Hong!”
Di Hen swallowed hard, his mind reeling from shock.
He now understood why even Hong Zhenxiang and Pei Yang treated Su Changkong with such respect, and why Pei Yang even went personally to request that he take over for the departed Hong Zhenxiang.
It was because Su Changkong truly had the ability and strength!
Even more shocking to Di Hen, Su Changkong was a lot younger than Hong Zhenxiang—did that not mean Su Changkong was even more of a freakish talent than this legendary figure of Dafeng State City? It was unfathomable how much Su Changkong could grow in the future!
“Let’s go, the matter is settled.”
Su Changkong spoke to Di Hen, instructing him to return the bow and arrows to the soldiers of Baorui County City.
“Yes, sir!” Di Hen replied respectfully.
Leaving the cleanup of the disturbance to Baorui County City, Su Changkong and Di Hen headed back to Dafeng State City.
This elite group of barbarian warriors, highly anticipated by the Ferocious Wolf Clan to stir significant upheaval within Dafeng State City, had hardly raised any commotion before being entirely slain by Su Changkong!
