Revenge of the First Daughter - Chapter 504
Chapter 504 Three Silver Needles
Two long arrows, one on the left and one on the right, slid past a bright ray of light in the air. Then, one of the long arrows seemed to encounter some sort of obstruction. Then, its entire body twisted, falling behind the other arrow by an arrow’s distance. Then, it moved slightly and collided with the other arrow.
The two long arrows collided with each other at the fastest distance, and then both of them narrowly missed the wooden stakes and landed on the ground!
He still hadn’t collided with the wooden stake at all!
This scene caused everyone to stare straight into their eyes.
Everyone could tell that Tie Qinglan’s long arrow was going to hit the wooden stake, but it was as if it was blocked by something.
“Ka.”
Right at this moment, a crisp voice rang out. Everyone saw that one of the arrows had actually split in half from the middle!
Everyone looked at the two arrows in astonishment, their gazes filled with shock.
Tie Qinglan looked at the two arrows that landed on the ground in disbelief. She never thought that the arrows would not only deflect from the wooden stakes in this way, they would also break directly from the middle.
When she shot the sword out, she had clearly considered the arrow too much. Although she could not give much consideration to it, she would not be so easily crushed into two halves by such a collision!
Tie Qinglan narrowed her eyes dangerously. At this moment, the doubts in her heart finally cleared up.
Someone had made a move on his arrow!
She suddenly remembered the flash of light she saw when she shot the long arrow for the first time. Her eyes contracted violently. If her guess was correct, the problem should be on the flash of light.
In order to verify the doubts in her heart, Tie Qinglan looked forward and saw that the wooden stake was still standing beside her, and she could not see anything.
Tie Qinglan frowned slightly. She walked a few steps in the same place and changed her footsteps to look in the opposite direction. When Tie Qinglan walked to a corner, a light flashed in front of her eyes and her heart jumped slightly. The footsteps she was about to take were immediately withdrawn.
He then stood there and looked at the wooden stake not far away. At this time, although the sun wasn’t strong, it could still refract a person’s figure. Under the sunlight, the wooden stake pulled out a very long shadow. At the edge of the shadow, three faint rays of light refracted an arc into his eyes.
A faint arc flashed across Tie Qinglan’s eyes, and her eyes were filled with undisguised embarrassment.
It was only because on the ground beside the wooden stake, Hao Ran was lying with three silver needles!
These three silver needles confirmed that someone had indeed made a move on his long arrow!
However, what Tie Qinglan found hard to accept was that three silver needles blocked the three long arrows she shot!
No one knew that she had used only 50% of her strength in the first three shots, and she had used all of her strength in the last two shots.
However, the three most inconspicuous silver needles had actually blocked her path when she shot with all her might. There was no longer a moment when she felt sad like this.
Her sharp gaze swept towards everyone in the banquet hall. She saw that everyone’s eyes were all staring at her with strange and strange expressions. Especially, there were two gazes that seemed to be malicious. However, by the time Tie Qinglan looked over, those two gazes had already disappeared. Tie Qinglan did not know who hated her anymore.
Tie Qinglan frowned slightly. However, she did not care. There were many people who liked her. However, no one had ever been able to take her life!
However, Tie Qinglan soon noticed another line of sight. On the left side of the banquet, the three of them sat upright, their expressions unchanged. Occasionally, they would say a few words. The atmosphere was relatively harmonious.
Tie Qinglan slightly pursed her thin lips. In the end, her gaze landed on the man dressed in a moonlight white robe. Rong Jin’s lips curled into a smile. His face was warm and moist, and his body was slender. His every move carried an unconcealable elegance.
At this moment, she did not put much attention on Rong Jin. She only thought of what Rong Jin had said, “You can’t shoot a wooden stake.”
Right now, she was indeed like Rong Jin said, she could not hit the wooden stake.
However, she couldn’t figure out why Rong Jin was so sure.
Could it be that those three silver needles were shot by Rong Jin?
However, didn’t His Highness the Swallow King go to the Eastern Jin Dynasty to be a proton for ten years?
As a proton, no emperor would ask the so-called proton to teach him. He only wished to nurture a proton into a piece of trash that didn’t understand anything!
Under such circumstances, how could the Swallow King still know martial arts?
For a moment, Tie Qinglan’s mind raced, but she couldn’t get any answers. She just stared blankly at Rong Jin.
Everyone at the banquet was originally extremely confident that Tie Qinglan could hit the wooden stake. However, looking at Tie Qinglan’s appearance, their expressions instantly turned into mockery. In addition, seeing Tie Qinglan staring blankly at Rong Jin, their hearts became even more disdainful and they were discussing something in low voices.
Tie Qinglan completely ignored everyone’s discussions. She glanced at the silver needles once more and knew that since that person could shoot down three arrows that she shot out, and even two arrows that she shot out at the same time, it was obvious that no matter how many more times she tried, she would still not hit them.
She frowned and still walked forward quickly, saluting An Hua. Then, she respectfully said, “This courtesan failed to hit the wooden stake. She failed to live up to the Empress’ love.”
“Get up,” An Hua said coldly, not wanting to pay attention to Tie Qinglan.
Tie Qinglan turned around and left. However, when she walked in front of Rong Jin and the others, she bowed towards Rong Jin and said indifferently, “You’re right, I really couldn’t hit the wooden stake.” However, she would not admit defeat because of this!
After Tie Qinglan finished speaking, she left without turning her head. Just as she took a step forward, she heard a sneer coming from behind her, “Humans, it’s always good to know yourself!”
“You!” Tie Qinglan turned around and looked at the person who spoke. She looked at the black ebony ghost mask and the pair of eyes that seemed to be carrying a trace of mockery. She felt her head heat up and wanted to fight back. However, at this moment, a light cough suddenly came from her mouth. Tie Qinglan instantly regained her senses and bowed towards Rong Xun. She turned around and left.
Rong Xun stared at Tie Qinglan’s expression, which was clearly so angry that he wanted to counterattack, but he had no choice but to endure it. He only felt that it was very interesting. He smiled faintly and then turned his gaze back to Tie Qinglan.
“Since Miss Tie can’t hit the wooden stake, who else is willing to try?” An Hua looked at Rong Jin with a faint smile, then swept his gaze over everyone at the banquet, a trace of mockery flashing across his face.
With An Hua’s words, someone immediately expressed interest and took the bow and arrow and shot it at the wooden stake. However, there were many people going back and forth, but none of them hit the wooden stake.
However, this final result shocked everyone. What was so strange about this wooden stake? It was actually so hard to hit? Every time, when the arrow was about to hit the wooden stake, it would deviate from the direction of the arrow.
At this moment, everyone who had originally scoffed at Tie Qinglan turned to be shocked by the wooden stakes.
Only shock remained in front of Tie Qinglan.
If there were so many people shooting arrows time and time again, she would not be able to see it clearly for a few times, but after seeing too much, Tie Qinglan discovered that the one shooting out the silver needle was actually Swallow King Rong Jin! What was even more unexpected was that Rong Jin’s kung fu was so high!
No wonder Rong Jin said that he couldn’t hit the target. With him secretly obstructing him from the side, no one would be able to hit him!
So this was the source of his confidence!
Right at this moment, Tie Qinglan received a faint look of ridicule. When she looked over, she saw a pair of ebony ghost masks and those pair of sneering eyes. A trace of anger flashed in her heart, but she could only endure it.
However, with her endurance, Rong Xun had no intention of withdrawing her gaze. Tie Qinglan reached out and picked up the wine cup in front of her. Then, she forcefully crushed it and looked at Rong Xun provocatively, as if she was saying that I was crushing you.
Who would have thought that Rong Xun would directly turn his head and ignore her for such a provocation? He held back his breath, and his little face was slightly flushed.
Rong Xun stood up and walked out in front of everyone. Before he left, he said loudly, “It’s really boring. I didn’t expect that you would invite me here and let me see this. You guys can play this game by yourselves. I won’t accompany you anymore!”
His unrestrained words and walking out made many people unhappy. However, because Rong Xun was the Supreme Emperor, he only respectfully lowered his eyebrows. On the contrary, An Hua was so angry that he almost knocked on the table. However, because of his face, he could only endure it.
Seeing this ending, An Hua was also very angry. There was a faint anger in her eyes. However, she endured it very much. She looked at Rong Jin’s warm and jade-like face not far away with a smile but not a smile. Seeing that his face still had a look of indifference, she became even more unhappy.
Thinking that the two brothers did not fake their words to him, their hearts became even more unhappy. They looked directly at Rong Jin and said loudly, “Prince Yan, since Xun’er has already left, you can’t leave today. So many people have ended up today? Aren’t you going to play?”
Today, she had done so much acting, so this sentence was the main point!
She wanted to see Rong Jin shoot Yun Xiao to death with her own eyes!
However, after An Hua’s voice fell, Rong Jin remained silent for a long time, causing the scene to instantly become somewhat stagnant.
Rong Ruo glanced at the wooden stake and said loudly, “Royal Grandmother, the others will receive a reward if they shoot the wooden stake. If Daddy shoots the wooden stake, will he also receive a reward?” Outside, Rong Ruo called Rong Jin father without any hesitation.
An Hua narrowed his eyes and looked at Rong Ruo in a dangerous manner. He thought that Rong Xun had caused him to lose face today, so he became even angrier. He patiently said, “Naturally.”
