However, things didn’t progress as Shi Hao expected.
“Insignificant skill!” Zuo Tiancheng was calm and composed. That arrow unexpectedly brushed past Zuo Tiancheng. It didn’t cause him any damage! What was going on here? One should know that, under normal circumstances, it was very difficult to dodge or block the attack with a critical-hit bonus.
Moreover, this arrow of just now was a sneak attack with a critical-hit bonus. Speaking bluntly, in Shi Hao’s view, it was impossible to dodge. Like that, since the arrow didn’t hit Zuo Tiancheng, then perhaps, it was most likely that Passionate Archer’s shot was off target.
However, how could Passionate Archer, who could shoot down a wild boar 400 meters away, miss the target at such a short distance? It was impossible.
Shi Hao couldn’t believe this, and was surprised…
Passionate Archer was also greatly surprised! His eyes were filled with confusion. At this moment, his always crystal-clear eyes were flickering continuously. Perhaps, this was the most confusing moment in his entire life. His ultimate shot actually missed!
Passionate Archer shot another arrow. However, although this arrow was not bad, its momentum was far inferior to the previous arrow.
Zuo Tiancheng dodged it without the slightest difficulty.
At this moment, Heroic Overlord Under Heaven also came back to his senses and looked over: “Eh! Cui Yuanqing, an unfamiliar person and Blowing Wind Left A Scar? No, he just resembles… Anyway, it seems you all are from Twin Dragons Village, but why are you all here?”
Pei Yuanqing stepped forward and didn’t speak a word, just had a serious look. He knew that he and Shi Hao already didn’t have the shield, and once Shi Hao was attacked by Zuo Tiancheng, it would be very dangerous.
Upon seeing this, Shi Hao was more at ease. He calmed down and replied: “I’m Twin Dragons Village’s Blowing Wind Left A Passion, Blowing Wind Left A Scar’s brother. Heroic Overlord Under Heaven! You have obstructed the affairs of my Twin Dragons Village many times. And this time, you are involving yourself in the dispute between Twin Dragons Village and Absolutely Godless. It seems you are seeking your death! Don’t blame me for being impolite.”
Shi Hao shouted: “Passionate Archer, shoot down Heroic Overlord Under Heaven…”
Passionate Archer subconsciously shot an arrow after hearing Shi Hao’s words. This arrow didn’t have the critical-hit bonus. However, Heroic Overlord Under Heaven’s defense was just 60 points and HP was 80 points. If Shi Hao’s estimate was correct, the attack power of Passionate Archer was enough to kill Heroic Overlord Under Heaven with an arrow.
Merely, Zuo Tiancheng’s golden blade came out of its sheath…
Bang! Bang! Bang! The golden blade blocked the arrow. Passionate Archer shot more arrows, but Zuo Tiancheng easily blocked all of them without any pressure.
“Stop!” Shi Hao understood that, with Zuo Tiancheng here, Passionate Archer wouldn’t be able to kill Heroic Overlord Under Heaven. At this stage, only Pei Yuanqing was strong enough to fight against Zuo Tiancheng.
However, if Pei Yuanqing wanted to kill Zuo Tiancheng, then he had to land a critical-hit.
Originally, with Pei Yuanqing’s 10% critical-hit rate, Pei Yuanqing might have defeated Zuo Tiancheng within ten moves.
However, Shi Hao had just seen that Passionate Archer’s arrow with critical-hit bonus cause no harm to Zuo Tiancheng! That being the case, who could guarantee that Pei Yuanqing’s attack with a critical-hit bonus would cause any damage to Zuo Tiancheng? At that time, if Zuo Tiancheng seized the chance to take down Shi Hao, then what would they do?
Therefore, Shi Hao couldn’t let Pei Yuanqing attack. He must make Pei Yuanqing protect him.
On the other side, Zuo Tiancheng also couldn’t attack! As soon as he took the initiative to attack, Heroic Overlord Under Heaven would die. Moreover, he couldn’t hurt Pei Yuanqing. It was not like he had not exchanged moves with Pei Yuancing. He knew the strength of Pei Yuanqing very well. As long as Pei Yuanqing was in front of Shi Hao, he couldn’t do anything.
As the two sides entered a stalemate, the atmosphere became silent for a long time…
Suddenly, Zuo Tiancheng took the initiative to speak: “I think you all might have a misunderstanding. It would be better for us to talk openly and honestly.”
Shi Hao coldly smiled: “Misunderstanding? You all are lying in ambush here. I guess you all wanted to carry out a surprise attack from behind when I came to look for the Purification Spring! What’s there to misunderstand!”
Upon hearing Shi Hao’s words, Heroic Overlord Under Heaven and Zuo Tiancheng were dumbfounded…
“What Purification Water?” Heroic Overlord Under Heaven coldly refuted with great momentum: “We are here to obtain the Light of Evolution! It is a treasure that allows people to immediately get ability mutation. Also, not everyone is qualified to get it! Only I meet the conditions…” As long as Heroic Overlord Under Heaven had a chance to brag, he would never waste it. He completely revealed their target.
As it turned out that Heroic Overlord Under Heaven and Zuo Tiancheng didn’t know anything about Purification Water. They came purely for the Light of Evolution…
In fact, Red Autumn Leaf Bai Xiaosheng had already explained the matter of Unfair Storm’s antidote failure to Absolutely Godless. However, the reason he gave was a lie. Red Autumn Leaf Bai Xiaosheng told them that the antidote had expired. The antidote just had a deadline of seven days.
Absolutely Godless had no reason to not believe in Red Autumn Leaf Bai Xiaosheng’s words and didn’t pursue this matter. Moreover, as compensation, Red Autumn Leaf Bai Xiaosheng told Absolutely Godless about a mysterious treasure in Heavenly Mountain called Light of Evolution. This thing allowed people to immediately get ability mutation (note: for example, stats mutation, skill window mutation, skill mutation and so on). However, only special people could take out the Light of Evolution.
The person who could take out the Light of Evolution must be a person who possessed the potential to contend for the world. Ordinary people had no way to take out the Light of Evolution.
Naturally, there were more than one Light of Evolution. In Heavenly Mountain, five Light of Evolution would be produced per one hundred years. However, a person could only use the Light of Evolution once.
Red Autumn Leaf Bai Xiaosheng told Absolutely Godless that the most suitable person to collect the Light of Evolution at this moment was Heroic Overlord Under Heaven. Therefore, Absolutely Godless, who greatly trusted Red Autumn Leaf Bai Xiaosheng, ordered returning Zuo Tiancheng to take Heroic Overlord Under Heaven to collect the Light of Evolution.
Merely, when Zuo Tiancheng came to the Heavenly Dragon Village, he discovered the good deeds of Heroic Overlord Under Heaven! The subordinates of Absolutely Godless were already trapped.
However, Zuo Tiancheng had also already learned to work around. He promised Heroic Overlord Under Heaven on behalf of Absolutely Godless that as long as Heroic Overlord Under Heaven collected the Light of Evolution, not only Heroic Overlord Under Heaven would get a share, but he would also ignore what the other party had done, moreover, no longer restrict Heroic Overlord Under Heaven.
As for Heroic Overlord Under Heaven, he had to agree to it because the strength of his entire village could do nothing to Zuo Tiancheng.
Speaking about it, Heroic Overlord Under Heaven had not seen Zuo Tiancheng for a long time, so he had thought that Zuo Tiancheng was no longer in West Flower Region.
In fact, Zuo Tiancheng had indeed disappeared for a long time. He had gone to a remote mountain to self-cultivate and understood how he should be loyal to Absolutely Godless. Moreover, he had also successfully unsealed the skill awakening! Afterward, he helped Unfair Storm to establish a village in West River Tiger Den, White Tiger Village, and stayed there.
[Skill Name: True* Invincible Golden Blade] [Skill Grade: historical NPC’s skill, no grade classification] [Skill Type: Active, 15 MP] [Weapon Restriction: Blade] [Current Rank and Mastery: Level 2, 395/400] [Skill Effect: +16 attack and 26% HP absorption for 10 minutes, (true*) exempt from the dodging difficulty created by a critical-hit bonus]This was also the reason Zuo Tiancheng was able to dodge Passionate Archer’s arrow. Moreover, after awakening, Zuo Tiancheng no longer needed to be afraid of Pei Yuanqing! Now, he could barely fight to a standstill against Pei Yuanqing.
Naturally, Wu Batian didn’t say anything about the matters of Red Autumn Leaf Bai Xiaosheng and Zuo Tiancheng, because he himself didn’t know those top-secret inside information…
