Chapter 102: One of the Three Godly Archers

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Master!” Ding Fanqiu’s three disciples exclaimed in shock. An expression of disbelief could be seen on their faces. Their master whom they respected, a Five-leaf Golden Lotus avatar elite, was shot down by an arrow!

‘Such a high-level archery skill!’

‘Is the elite from the palace here?’

Everyone looked around their surroundings, trying to catch a glimpse of the newcomer.

Lu Zhou looked at the direction where the arrow had come from. Although his vision was obscured, he could vaguely see a flying chariot hovering at the edge of the horizon.

The boxy bright-red flying chariot was not big. It was like a palanquin. Each corner of the flying chariot was supported by a girl dressed in red robes. Their faces were painted with heavy makeup as well.

‘So, the reinforcements from the palace are here! It seems like there is more than one of them. What if one Deadly Strike Card isn’t enough?’

Meanwhile, the archer could be seen next to the flying chariot. He wore a cape and a bamboo hat. At this moment, he was descending to the ground at an extremely fast speed before landing on the ground with ease.

The archer possessed a Six-leaf cultivation base at least! He was Chen Zhu, the most powerful person among the Divine Capital’s Three Godly Archers!

Upon seeing Chen Zhu, the soldiers fell to their knees in unison.

“Greetings, Lord Chen!”

The Nascent Divinity Tribulation realm archer stared at Lu Zhou and the others, he did not acknowledge the soldiers. He walked toward Lu Zhou and the others at a speed that was neither slow nor fast. As he got closer, they could see his figure with increasing clarity. He finally stopped moving when he was a dozen meters away from them. After that, he removed his bamboo hat and tossed it aside. His entire person radiated a cold aura.

Name: Chen Zhu

Race: Triverso

Realm: Nascent Divinity Tribulation

‘Triverso?’ Lu Zhou was slightly surprised, but his expression remained neutral. He glanced at the bright-red flying chariot again and the four girls who were supporting it. Perhaps, they were too far away, he could only see the outlines of their figures. However, based on their auras, he determined that at least two of them were in the Nascent Divinity Tribulation realm. However, a Nascent Divinity Tribulation realm cultivator without any leaves was not a genuine cultivator in the Nascent Divinity Tribulation realm!

‘I think I might have underestimated the situation. Should I use an Impeccable Card to escape?’

Lu Zhou was still contemplating his options when Chen Zhu’s cold voice rang in the air. “The lord has ordered for these people from the Evil Sky Pavilion to be captured and handed over to the palace.”

The soldiers and cultivators bowed and responded in unison, “Understood!”

Ding Fanqiu’s three disciples paled immediately. They cried out one after another.

“We’re not disciples from the Evil Sky Pavilion! You’ve made a mistake!”

“We’re fakes!”

However, Chen Zhu who held a bow and arrow in his hands said indifferently, “Since they’re fakes, we’ll execute them here!”

“…”

The palace might have given them some consideration if they were from the give Evil Sky Pavilion. However, since they were fakes, there was no need to be considerate toward imposters.

Upon hearing this, Ding Fanqiu’s three disciples fell to the ground.

Chen Zhu played with his bow that seemed to be an earth-grade weapon. It was similar to Li Qing’s bow. He did not nock an arrow to his bow. Instead, he smiled before he placed his right hand on the bowstring, drawing it back. At this moment, he turned his Qi into an energy arrow.

Bzzt!

There was a buzz in the air as Chen Zhu pulled the bowstring back. It sounded extremely ominous.

Target: Ding Fanqiu’s only female disciple.

Twang!

The arrow took flight immediately. The female disciple did not have time to plead or resist before the arrow pierced through her chest. Her eyes widened before she dropped dead. Her aura had completely vanished.

“Junior Sister!”

“Junior Sister!”

The other two disciples cried out, unable to believe their eyes.

How would it be possible for a Divine Court realm cultivator who was restricted by the Grand Witchcraft Formation to defend herself against Chen Zhu, one of the Divine Capital’s Three Godly Archers?

Ding Fanqiu’s expression changed drastically. “You…”

Chen Zhu sneered as he raised his right arm again.

Bzzt!

An energy arrow appeared on the bowstring again.

Everyone understood Chen Zhu’s plan. He was going to kill them one by one with his arrows. He looked at Ding Fanqiu coldly as he said, “Ji Tiandao?” His arrow was trained on Ding Fanqiu.

Ding Fanqiu coughed violently as he sat up. He lifted his hand and broke the arrow that was embedded in his body. After that, he asked in a tone that was tinged with incredulity, “You… are Chen Zhu, one of the Three Godly Archers, whose arrows never miss?”

Chen Zhu chuckled. “My reputation precedes me.” Then, he said slowly, “Indeed, I’m Chen Zhu. You’ve trespassed where you shouldn’t have…”

Ding Fanqiu brushed his white hair aside before he said, “This is how the Evil Sky Pavilion has always operated.”

Chen Zhu shook his head. “That’s enough. It’s one thing for you to fool the others with your act, but you can drop your act in front of my lord. Your strength and cultivation base are too weak.”

Ding Fanqiu was stunned. He glanced at the bright-red flying chariot in the sky. An expression of surprise appeared on his face before it was replaced by a stiff an unnatural expression.

Chen Zhu said confidently, “Even the real patriarch of the Evil Sky Pavilion would have to admit defeat today, let alone an imposter like you. This Grand Witchcraft Formation was prepared specifically with blind and arrogant cultivators, such as yourself, in mind.” He did not release his grip on the bowstring. Instead, he looked left and right in search of other targets. He appeared flippant as though his opponents were just a herd of sheep waiting to be slaughtered.

It was only natural that Chen Zhu took the situation lightly. After all, he was a Nascent Divinity Tribulation realm godly archer. He could shoot three energy arrows at a time. Nobody could tell who his next target would be. The naked eye would not be able to follow the movements of a godly archer when he was shooting.

At this moment, Lu Zhou finally spoke up, “Three Godly Archers of the Divine Capital?” His ancient voice was deep and domineering.

“Eh?” Chen Zhu’s gaze shifted from Ding Fanqiu to Lu Zhou. He frowned slightly. He did not notice the old man prior to this!

Lu Zhou’s expression was calm. His right hand was resting on his back while his left hand was stroking his beard. It seemed as though he was not affected by the Grand Witchcraft Formation at all.

Chen Zhu was shocked. He asked skeptically, “You’re not affected by the Grand Formation?”

Lu Zhou responded indifferently, “Are you talking to me?”

Chen Zhu waved his hand that was holding onto the bow. “Do you know who you’re talking to?”

Lu Zhou shook his head and said, “I applaud you for your bravery.”

“Old man… who are you?” Chen Zhu asked arrogantly.

Little Yuan’er could not hold it back any longer. Before Lu Zhou could reply, she retorted in a clear voice, “The person standing before you is the true master of the Evil Sky Pavilion!” Her voice was infused with Primal Qi.

Ding Fanqiu, “…”

The two disciples. “…”

Chen Zhu. “…”

Ding Fanqiu trembled inwardly. Realization dawned on him as he pieced the puzzles together. An awkward expression appeared on his face. ‘No wonder! I had thought this little girl resembled the Evil Sky Pavilion’s ninth disciple!’ He did not know if he should laugh or cry at this moment. He was in a lot of pain. To think he attempted to take her under his wings several times. Who knew the old man whom he had brought with him was the old villain he had been impersonating?

‘I’m dead! I’m dead!’

However, Chen Zhu guffawed. It was as though he had been told the greatest joke of the day.

“My lord was informed that this Ji Tiandao is an impostor. I am to kill him on the spot.” Chen Zhu raised his right arm, condensing an energy arrow.

It was at moments like this that he could not let his guard down.

Lu Zhou stroked his beard and said, “If you answer three of my questions, I’ll turn a blind eye to today’s event.”

Chen Zhu was about to erupt in anger. However, bells began to ring in the air as though an order was being conveyed. Upon hearing this, he frowned slightly. He asked with a tinge of annoyance, “What are they?”

“First, who’s your lord? Second, what’s the purpose of fishing the corpses out of the river? Third, who’s the mastermind behind the destruction of the Fish Dragon Village? If you answer these three questions, no one will die today.”
