“You’re courting death!”

Sun Zonghai snorted coldly and waved his spear. It turned into countless spear shadows and stabbed Guo Linshan’s body.

Guo Linshan raised his broadsword and blocked the attack with great difficulty. Although he did not want to admit it, Guo Linshan knew that he would really die in a few more moves.

The sad thing was that Guo Linshan was unable to drag Sun Zonghai and his companion. They were so cautious that they didn’t even give them the chance to hurt them.

Chi chi chi!

Blood spurted out of Guo Linshan’s body. The intense pain caused Guo Linshan’s movements to change slightly, making it even more difficult for him to defend against Sun Zonghai’s attack.

At this moment, Yu Yanyan was on guard at the side and no longer participated in the attack. At this moment, Guo Linshan was already at the end of his rope, and his battle prowess was less than 30% of what it was before.

The only reason why he was able to hold on for a while was that Sun Zonghai didn’t want to kill Guo Linshan directly.

Just like what Sun Zonghai had discussed, they wanted to capture Guo Linshan alive and bring him to the pond. They needed the Dreamlike Lotus.

Moreover, the Qi and blood of a Visceral Tempering realm martial artist like Guo Linshan was the favorite of the demonic beasts in the pool. At that time, he might be able to see clearly what kind of demonic beast it was and make other plans.

“Puff!”

Guo Linshan spat out a mouthful of blood and staggered back a few steps. He was on the verge of collapse, and even his eyes, which were looking at Sun Zonghai, began to blur.

Just as Sun Zonghai and Sun Zhenghai had said, Guo Linshan was really in a state of helplessness. If it wasn’t for Guo Linshan’s conviction, which made him unwilling to bow his head in defeat to Sun Zonghai and his companion, he would have fainted long ago.

“You sure are tough. I hope you won’t die halfway to the pond.”

Yu Yanyan laughed softly. Her figure flashed, and she circled behind Guo Linshan. The dagger in her hand was poised to paralyze him.

If they continued fighting, Yu Yanyan was worried that Guo Linshan would die directly. A dead martial artist’s blood was still, but it was very difficult to attract demon beasts. Yu Yanyan did not want this to happen.

“Whoosh!”

A sharp whistling sound suddenly sounded. Yu Yanyan’s expression changed slightly, and her body suddenly stopped. Then, an arrow flew past her face.

The wind brought by the arrow swept up Yu Yanyan’s hair. A strand of hair broke and fluttered down.

“Who are you?”

Sun Zonghai’s expression changed slightly. He turned his head to the right and saw a figure standing on the top of a tree, holding a bow and pointing it at them. In the next moment, several arrows flew toward the two of them.

“Marrow Tempering realm? How dare you!”

Yu Yanyan sensed Chen Fei’s aura and snorted coldly. Her figure flashed, and she rushed toward Chen Fei. But in just a moment, Yu Yanyan’s figure was stopped by Chen Fei’s arrow.

Yu Siyan’s movement technique was not bad. Ordinary arrows could not lock onto Yu Yanyan at all. Yu Yanyan could easily dodge and even rush directly in front of the archer.

However, Chen Fei’s arrows were not only fast but also powerful. They were amazing. They were even more important. The arrows could always predict the speed of the arrows.

In just a few moves, Yu Yanyan’s right hand was numb from the shock. She even had to dodge left and right, trying to avoid a few arrows. However, it was impossible to advance.

Not only Yu Yuyan, Sun Zonghai only took a few steps forward and was directly beaten back more than ten meters. Sun Zonghai was even worse off compared to Yu Yuyan’s movement technique.

It was impossible for him to break through. Instead, he could only take Chen Fei’s arrows head-on. The strength of each arrow shocked Sun Zonghai.

Was this an arrow that could be shot at the Marrow Tempering realm? Even if one was at the peak of the Visceral Tempering realm, one would have to be obsessed with archery to be able to do this.

“Friend, is there a misunderstanding? You and 1 don’t know each other!” Sun Zonghai took a few steps back and said slowly.

This kind of archery technique was too terrifying. Right now, the other party was still fighting one-on-two, but he was already suppressing them and preventing them from advancing. If it was a one-on-one, the situation would be even more difficult.

At this moment, it was impossible to use the Marrow Tempering realm to describe Chen Fei’s deterrence. Sun Zonghai decided to negotiate.

Chen Fei did not say anything. Looking at Guo Linshan’s miserable state, Chen Fei did not stop shooting arrows. As time passed, Sun Zonghai’s and Sun Zonghai’s arms became slightly stiff from blocking the arrows, causing their movements to be slightly distorted.

Not only Chen Fei discovered it, but Sun Zonghai and Yu Yanyan naturally knew it even better. They couldn’t see how many arrows were left in Chen Fei’s quiver.

However, they obviously did not want to be passively beaten up like this. If anything went wrong later, they might die.

“Friend, since you don’t want to talk, we’ll leave first!”

Sun Zonghai shouted and took a few steps forward, trying to get the package a few meters ahead. It was Guo Linshan’s parcel, and the Thousand Rock Grass was inside.

This was how they calmed Guo Linshan’s heart and then sneaked an attack on Guo Linshan. Now, Sun Zonghai naturally wanted to take the Thousand Rock Grass.

“Bang!”

An arrow pierced the front of the bag, and the terrifying force blasted a deep pit in the ground, causing Sun Zonghai to stand rooted to the ground.

“A chance!”

Yu Yanyan’s eyes suddenly lit up, and her entire face instantly turned red. Her figure seemed to have turned into a breeze, and she quickly rushed toward Chen Fei.

Wind Rush!

She turned her body into a breeze, appearing like front and back, left and right, making it difficult for people to detect his true body. At the same time, it could greatly increase one’s speed. It was ethereal and unpredictable.

In the blink of an eye, Yu Yanyan crossed a distance of tens of meters and arrived in front of Chen Fei.

“Be careful!”

Guo Linshan had just recovered his strength and had a clear view of the surrounding situation. Fie noticed that Yu Yanyan had rushed over and couldn’t help but shout loudly. At the same time, he realized that Sun Zonghai was about to attack as well. Guo Linshan roared and blocked Sun Zonghai’s path.

“Get lost!

ii

Sun Zonghai shouted angrily when he saw Guo Linshan. Sun Zonghai had long been suppressed by Chen Fei’s bow and arrows. Now that Yu Yanyan had finally found an opportunity, how could Sun Zonghai let it go?

A mere Marrow Tempering realm expert thought that his archery skills were impressive and that he could suppress them. Now, Sun Zonghai wanted Chen Fei dead.

Therefore, when he saw Guo Linshan blocking the way, Sun Zonghai became even angrier. He pointed his spear at Guo Linshan’s limbs and crippled him first. He would have to deal with him later.

The situation in the arena seemed to have changed in a flash.

Yu Yanyan rushed in front of Chen Fei. Her face was flushed red, and her eyes were filled with love. It was as if she was rushing to her lover. She had already activated her seduction technique at full force, waiting for Chen Fei to lose his mind.

Chen Fei looked at Yu Yanyan calmly. His eyes were filled with clarity. He put down the longbow in his left hand, and a long sword appeared in his right hand.

Yu Yanyan narrowed her eyes. She did not expect that the seduction technique that could confuse the Visceral Tempering realm would actually be useless against a mere Marrow Tempering realm.

However, now that she was in front of Chen Fei, if an archer lost his distance, he would naturally lose his greatest advantage. Even if Chen Fei held a sword, what could he do?

“Clang!”

The sound of metal clashing rang out. Just as the dagger in Yu Yanyan’s hand stabbed out, a sword and shield flashed in front of her.

The timing of the sword and shield’s flash was too good. Yu Yanyan didn’t even have time to change her move. The dagger and the sword and shield collided.

With just a touch, Yu Yanyan’s expression changed. It was not only because the sword shield was extremely thick and difficult to break through, but also because a huge rebound sword force on the sword shield directly swept away Yu Yanyan’s dagger.

Yu Yanyan knew that Chen Fei had great strength, which could be seen from the power of the bow and arrow just now. However, great strength did not mean that it could be transformed into sword techniques. This required exquisite sword techniques.

How could a Marrow Tempering martial artist achieve first-rate archery and such an exaggerated level of swordsmanship? This required years of cultivation.

Unless the other party was a true genius. But if he was a genius, why was his cultivation only at the Marrow Tempering realm?

All kinds of thoughts flashed through Yu Yanyan’s mind. Before Yu Yanyan could adjust the dagger in her hand, a light suddenly flashed in front of her.

“Not good!”

Yu Yanyan was greatly shocked, and she desperately blocked the front with her dagger.

Swallow Returns!

A move that specializes in defense. It can deflect force and block attacks that far exceed one’s own strength.

With her Visceral Tempering realm cultivation, Yu Yanyan possessed an extremely strong ability to control her body. At the critical moment, she actually pulled her dagger back and blocked the sword light.

“Clang!”

A force far beyond imagination came from the dagger. Swallow Returns had indeed helped Yu Yanyan to reduce a lot of the force, but the remaining force was still beyond the scope of Yu Yanyan’s resistance.

Yu Yanyan could not control her right hand, and the dagger directly hit Yu Yanyan’s chest. A mouthful of blood sprayed out from Yu Yanyan’s mouth.

The move that was specially used for defense was actually broken by a single move.

“Misunderstanding.”

Seeing Chen Fei’s cold gaze, Yu Yanyan shouted loudly. However, what greeted her was an ice-cold sword light.

Yu Yanyan’s scalp went numb. She circulated her Wind Rush crazily. Yu Yanyan turned into a gust of wind and dodged backward.

“Tsk!”

The sword light flashed. Chen Fei did not chase after her. He turned to look at Sun Zonghai.

After Sun Zonghai smashed Guo Linshan to the side, he rushed toward Chen Fei. Guo Linshan didn’t need to care anymore. He was just on the verge of death and couldn’t stop anything.

On the contrary, Chen Fei, who had just appeared, was too much of a threat. He had to kill Chen Fei. Otherwise, if Chen Fei escaped and appeared at the critical moment of their battle in the future, it would definitely cause huge trouble.

However, Sun Zonghai had only crossed a few dozen meters when he saw Yu Yuyan being pushed back by a sword. She even turned into a gust of wind and retreated crazily. This made Sun Zonghai stop in his tracks, and a bad feeling rose in his heart.

“Zonghai!”

Yu Yanyan appeared and looked at Sun Zonghai with a sorrowful expression.

Yu Yanyan seemed to have dodged Chen Fei’s Sword Seven, but she didn’t really dodge it. At this moment, a huge wound appeared on her abdomen.

It was already incurable.

Sun Zonghai’s eyes widened. He didn’t even look at Yu Yanyan’s right hand. His figure flashed, and he fled into the distance.

Chen Fei’s archery skills were terrifying, but he didn’t expect his swordsmanship to be even more exaggerated. In just three moves, he had severely injured Yu Yanyan. With such combat strength, if Yu Yanyan was unharmed, Sun Zonghai would still have the guts to stay and fight.

But now that Yu Yanyan was about to die, she no longer had the slightest bit of combat strength. Sun Zonghai had no guts to stay.

Who would have thought that an archer’s close-combat skills were so much more exaggerated than archery? It was simply unreasonable!
