Chapter 569: Chapter 368: The Methods of the Void Spirit Guest_2
He was Zhao Cangming.
At the moment, Zhao Cangming was dispirited, with only four fingers remaining on his right hand. The bleeding had stopped, and his expression was numb and gloomy.
Sitting on either side of Zhao Cangming were Shi Buk and another Legendary Mutant.
Apart from the Dragon Hawk, there were also six Silver Winged Pegasi, each ridden by a fully armed Super Mutant.
The party of ten was flying northward.
Ji Xinghuo immediately guessed their destination.
Leaving the Thousand Peak Abyss Forest to the north and crossing over two vassal states, they would enter the territory of the True Dragon Dynasty.
The coordinates left by Zhao Manying’s father, Zhao Ke, placed the airship in the Xuye Territory, about 200,000 kilometers from the southern border of the True Dragon Dynasty. They were taking Zhao Cangming to that airship.
Ji Xinghuo looked back but could not find the Void Spirit Guest.
He did not hesitate and immediately took action.
With a boom.
Ji Xinghuo accelerated, took the Black Constant Crystal Battle Bow in his hand, pulled the bowstring, and closed the distance with the Dragon Hawk in just over a dozen seconds.
This great commotion immediately caught the attention of the people ahead, who looked back.
"Ji Xinghuo!"
Suddenly, the Mutants on the back of the Dragon Hawk and the Silver Winged Pegasi were shocked. They didn’t know what Ji Xinghuo looked like, but they recognized the Black Constant Crystal Battle Bow and the Electric Potential Battle Blade. Anyone who had seen Ji Xinghuo’s duel with Li Xuan had been deeply impressed.
At a single glance, people could recognize the bearer.
Zhao Cangming’s eyes burst with brilliance, surprised and delighted.
"Hurry up!"
"Shake him off, or we will all die," shouted the Legendary Mutant sitting beside Zhao Cangming.
The Legendary controlling the Dragon Hawk immediately made it fly faster, the airflow generated by its wings fiercely propelling it, its speed surged. The six Silver Winged Pegasi beside it also flapped their wings desperately but were gradually left behind.
The people looked back frequently and found that not only had they not shaken off Ji Xinghuo, but he was also getting closer and closer.
At that moment, Ji Xinghuo entered within two kilometers and released the bowstring.
Whizz, whizz, whizz...
Ji Xinghuo fired continuously, with the first three arrows being Tungsten Core Heavy Arrows and switching to ordinary Titanium Alloy Arrows from the fourth onward.
Due to the presence of the Void Spirit Guest nearby, he dared not use the Wanxiang Star Pupil and relied solely on his Archery Skill. Even so, the eight arrows fired in two seconds flew like meteors, strikingly precise, and targeted accurately.
"Dodge!" the Legendary Mutant on the Dragon Hawk yelled.
A wide, transparent wall of air opened up, shielding behind the Dragon Hawk. Its grey feathers lit up one by one, the massive body like a hurricane as its speed shot up once more, becoming somewhat blurry.
The six Silver Winged Pegasi left behind also scattered and fled, with each Mutant utilizing their Ability to try to evade or block the arrows.
Before the words had fallen, the arrows had arrived!
A Tungsten Core Heavy Arrow pierced through the wall of air as easily as tearing through paper, ripping a hole in it and striking the Dragon Hawk’s abdomen.
The other two Tungsten Core Heavy Arrows almost simultaneously hit, aimed at the two Legendaries on the Dragon Hawk’s back. The Dragon Hawk’s owner was a Hunter; he dodged frantically but was still grazed by the Tungsten Core Heavy Arrow, his entire left arm and half his shoulder disappearing.
The other Legendary Mutant was a Steel Knight, who, relying on his strong Defense, tried to block the shot. He wore thick armor, reflecting a metallic luster from his entire skin.
With a loud explosion.
The upper body of the Steel Knight burst open, flesh and blood flying in all directions, with the rest of his half-body also plummeting downward.
The Dragon Hawk, having suffered heavy damage, screamed in terror as it rolled and plummeted toward the ground.
Zhao Cangming and Shi Buk were thrown off.
Both cried out in alarm as they flailed in mid-air, and as they looked back, they saw the six Silver Winged Pegasi scattering in all directions, the Super Mutants on their backs either had their heads blown off or their chests pierced, all having become corpses.
In a blink of an eye, they were almost all dead or wounded.
Only the Legendary Hunter was still alive but severely injured, his back sprouting a pair of Winged Man Feathers as he struggled to stabilize his body and flee into the distance.
However, barely a hundred meters out, a Titanium Alloy Arrow shot across the sky, piercing through his body as he screamed and fell.
"Brother-in-law!"
Zhao Cangming cried out in panic, "Help!"
Ji Xinghuo’s figure rapidly approached, slowed down slightly, reached out to grab Zhao Cangming by the collar, hovering mid-air, and casually tore off the metal shackles from his hands and feet, restoring his freedom.
Zhao Cangming, still shaken, looked towards the ground, where Shi Buk and the Dragon Hawk had crashed into the forest; he tried to speak but it was too late.
The Dragon Hawk had knocked down a large swath of trees.
Shi Buk used its body to buffer the force of the fall, and at the moment of impact, a force field emerged around him, protecting his entire body and saving his life.
On the other side, the Legendary Hunter had also landed, dragging his badly injured body in a desperate escape, his body camouflaging like a chameleon, and using the forest and terrain to evade Ji Xinghuo’s sight.
A flash of lightning flashed in Ji Xinghuo’s eyes.
Boom!
The sky darkened, and a thick bolt of lightning struck down, hitting the Legendary Hunter and knocking him to the ground.
Ji Xinghuo did not deliver the killing blow, sparing the man’s life.
He descended with Zhao Cangming, and just as they touched the ground, a figure leapt from the shadows, wielding a blade, fiercely stabbing towards the back.
Ji Xinghuo turned and swung his hand.
With a smack,
Shi Buk was slapped, sent flying into a tree trunk, then fell to the ground, her cheek swelling up high, as electric currents ran wildly inside her, causing her body to twitch uncontrollably.
"Watch her."
Ji Xinghuo put down Zhao Cangming and said, disappearing with a flicker of his figure.
Seconds later, when Ji Xinghuo returned, he was holding the Legendary Hunter, whose legs were broken, his left arm was gone up to the shoulder, and his right arm was twisted like a pretzel, his entire body scorched black by the lightning, a ghastly sight.
In the case of ordinary people, such severe injuries would have been fatal long ago.
But a Legendary figure’s life force is tenacious; he was only temporarily incapacitated, still very conscious.
Zhao Cangming watched his miserable state, still feeling as if he were dreaming.
In his eyes, the fearsomely powerful Legendary Mutant and a whole squad of Super Mutants were so easily defeated before Ji Xinghuo; they were wiped out in a single encounter.
Ji Xinghuo casually threw the prisoner to the ground.
The Legendary Hunter stared at him fiercely, his eyes full of unwillingness and disbelief, "How could you possibly have found us?"
Ji Xinghuo paid no attention to him and asked, "Cangming, how is your body holding up?"
"Not bad."
Zhao Cangming felt a mix of complex and bewildered emotions, and up until now, he still did not know the real cause, only that he had been kidnapped; he displayed his right palm to Ji Xinghuo, saying indignantly, "They chopped off one of my fingers."
"Your finger is with me," Ji Xinghuo said, "We’ll reattach it when we get back."
"Ah?"
Zhao Cangming was overjoyed, guessing that after his finger was chopped off, it was definitely used to threaten his sister; looking at the Legendary Hunter on the ground, he asked, "Brother-in-law, who are these people?"
"Haven’t you guessed by now?" Ji Xinghuo countered.
Zhao Cangming fell silent for a moment, then turned his gaze to Shi Buk, whose internal currents of electric charge had dissipated, but she still hadn’t regained her ability to move.
"Cangming, I really had no ill intentions towards you, I was also kept in the dark by grandpa, only finding out about his plan today," Shi Buk pleaded with a dismayed expression, "thinking of our relationship, can’t you forgive me?"
The two of them had long been intimate, maintaining a secret romance for over half a year.
Initially, Shi Buk had approached him proactively, and after their relationship was confirmed, she found various excuses to make Zhao Cangming conceal their affair.
Until today...
Zhao Cangming’s eyes wavered slightly.
"Man Ying told me that it was Shi Hongyi who killed your father," Ji Xinghuo said softly, "She’s been looking for an opportunity for revenge all these years. Shi Hongyi kidnapping you was also to blackmail your sister."
Zhao Cangming’s body swayed; this massive load of information assaulted his mind, and his expression varied, taking a long while to recover.
"I had my suspicions..." he said with a bitter smile, "I thought I was overthinking it, but it turns out to be true."
Zhao Cangming’s gaze gradually firmed.
He picked up the blade that had fallen to the ground, walked towards Shi Buk, and amidst her terrified gaze and screams, pierced her heart.
