Chapter 472: Chapter 108: Opening the Heavenly Eye, One Man Defends a City! (Seeking Monthly Passes!!)_2
The Black Mountain Army soldiers were all clad in armor and wielding sharp weapons; at a glance, it was clear that they were truly the elite of the army, veterans who had climbed out of heaps of corpses in countless battles.
Subsequently, his gaze refocused on the Black Mountain Cavalry hidden behind the barricades.
âGood thing I have activated the Heavenly Eye.â
âIf it had been before I opened the âHeavenly Eyeâ a few days ago, with you hiding behind the barricades, it would have taken me a moment to find a solution!â
âBut now, a mere barricade canât protect you!â
Jiang Ning smiled.
The next moment.
His gaze became intense, and his pupils contracted slightly.
The Heavenly Eye, existing between the real and the ethereal, suddenly grew stronger. His vision effortlessly pierced through the physical obstructions, and he easily saw the Black Mountain Cavalry behind the barricades.
Immediately.
He took another arrow, nocked it to his bow, and pulled the string.
The ordinary longbow in his hand was instantly drawn to full, and he quickly locked onto a member of the Black Mountain Cavalry.
âCommander Jiang⊠what is heâŠâ Ge Zhengyuan glanced at Jiang Ning, then looked down.
In his line of sight, not a single Black Mountain Cavalry could be seen.
This indicated that all members of the Black Mountain Cavalry had already taken cover behind the barricades.
Against an archery master, remaining undiscovered was the best tactic.
Just then.
Thumpâ
Jiang Ning released his finger, and the arrow flew out, shredding the air.
The vibration of the bowstring instantly produced a fog of white mist.
In the blink of an eye, the arrow vanished from Ge Zhengyuanâs sight, leaving only a white trail as it sped through the night sky.
Boomâ
A thunderous roar erupted once again beneath the city wall.
Everyoneâs gaze followed.
They were greeted by the sight of flying limbs and blood, as the accumulated snow behind the barricades was instantly stained red with blood.
âIs this⊠just luck?â Ge Zhengyuan observed the scene, his expression filled with shock and uncertainty.
On the other side,
the leader of the Black Mountain Cavalry felt the same.
The next moment.
Boomâ
The sound of thunder exploded again in the night.
Everyone then saw more limbs flying and the white snow behind the barricades once again stained red with blood.
âImpossible!!!â The pupils of the leader of the Black Mountain Cavalry shrank, his eyes filled with disbelief.
Immediately, he looked up once more toward Jiang Ning on the city ramparts.
He saw Jiang Ningâs arrow pointing right at his position.
âNot good!!!â
His heart shook violently.
A chill ran from his head to his heels.
He had no other thoughts, turning around and fleeing at top speed.
Even the Black Nightmare Horse, which had followed him for thousands of miles and felt closer than a brother, he could not concern himself with now.
There was only one thought in his mind.
Escape!
The farther, the better.
He had no doubt that if he stayed in place, he would surely be shot dead with one arrow.
The two brothers who had just been hiding behind the barricades were proof enough for him.
Though he did not understand how the mysterious man on the city walls could see through the walls and easily lock onto his hidden brothers with his arrows,
He no longer harbored any doubts about it.
That was, the man on the city walls had the ability to see through their cover.
Such an archery master, taking advantage of the terrain, was already an invincible presence in the night.
Afterward.
Boomâ
Another thunderous roar resonated.
This captain of the Black Mountain Army, who had killed thousands of enemies in his life and committed countless heinous crimes during his escapades, was reduced to scattered flesh in that instant.
Silently dying in a filthy corner of the outer city.
The blood from his severed flesh turned the dirty ground red.
On the other side,
Jiang Ning once again targeted another with his arrow.
Thumpâ
The arrow tore through the air.
Creating a white streak in the dark night.
Boomâ
And with another thunderous explosion, another Black Mountain Cavalryman lay dead on the spot.
Subsequently.
Thumpâ
Thumpâ
Thumpâ
âŠ
Every âone breathâ interval, two arrows flew from his hand.
The arrows pierced through the air, instantly reaping a life.
Boomâ
Boomâ
Boomâ
âŠ
The succession of thunderous sounds continued to explode throughout the outer city district.
With each explosion, another Black Mountain Cavalryman lay dead on the spot.
Just a few breaths had passed.
The thirty Black Mountain Cavalry that had come were now reduced to just over ten.
Witnessing the scene under the city walls, Ge Zhengyuan was ecstatic beyond measure.
The crisis of the siege had been so easily resolved.
This was completely beyond his expectations.
He had never imagined that Luoshui County could produce a hero who could defend a tenth of the city alone with just a bow!
On the other side,
Atop the city battlements,
Jiang Ning also noticed the woman dressed in black, with her face veiled in black, drifting over like a ghost.
Although the woman was invisible to the eyes of ordinary people at this moment,
With his Heavenly Eye activated, Jiang Ning could clearly see her presence.
He then discarded his nearly broken longbow and took out a brand-new standard longbow from the Sumeru Ring.
Once again, he notched an arrow and drew the bowstring back to its full extent in an instant.
In that moment,
His robes began to flutter with a whistling sound, and the hair hanging down behind him was suddenly lifted by the wind.
A gale converged beside him, with arcs of electricity flashing across the arrow.
The next second,
His arrow was pointed directly at the woman in black, invisible to the naked eye.
Jiang Ning had already speculated about the woman in blackâs unusual situation.
It was probably some kind of method to distort vision, like the mirages in the desert and at sea,
Illusions caused by the refraction of light.
Thoughts flashed through his mind.
Boomâ
Jiang Ningâs fingers suddenly released, and the bowstring emitted a loud sound as it cut through the air.
The air in front of the bowstring turned into a visible mist.
This arrow was the most powerful shot he could muster at present.
The arrow tore through the air, and at this moment, it seemed to become the eye of a raging storm.
The howling cold wind poured into the arrow furiously.
The arrow gained speed with every inch it advanced, its speed increasing incrementally, and the Thunder Light on it shone brighter.
This one arrow truly embodied the power of Wind and Thunder.
At that time,
The distance between the woman in black and Jiang Ning was just under three hundred meters.
Reflected in the astonished pupils of the woman, the arrow carrying the force of Wind and Thunder closed in rapidly.
The shadow of the arrow was expanding at high speed in the reflection of her eyes.
âHow could this be?!â
âHow can he see me?â
The womanâs mind was flooded with fleeting thoughts, then she dared not entertain any more.
Because the arrow posed an unmatched threat to her.
A deadly threat of death.
With the distance so short, there was no escape!
She made a snap judgment and bit the tip of her tongue lightly between her teeth, spurting heartâs blood from the tip.
Under the sudden blaze of her heartâs blood, her figure instantly became blurred in the eyes of Jiang Ning.
âSuch incredible speed!â
Jiang Ningâs gaze sharpened.
To his eyes, the woman in black suddenly seemed to shift through space, her form miraculously shifted, dodging his arrow.
However, as observed through the Heavenly Eye on his forehead, it was clear that the woman had exploded with terrifying speed.
This speed allowed her to instantaneously shift half a foot from where she was.
Half a foot was not much, but it was enough to avoid the arrow.
Yet as the arrow flew past her temple, barely missing her cheek, the gust it created was like a blade scraping across her face.
The woman in blackâs veil was instantly torn away, revealing a face as pure as a saint, and as pale as jade.
At the same time, the shoulder of her dress was also torn by the windblast of the passing arrow, shredding much of the black cloth that fluttered in the air, exposing her slender and fragile shoulders.
At this moment, the woman suddenly appeared in the sight of everyone on the city walls.
Meanwhile,
The moment the people on the walls saw the womanâs face, they were instantly enraptured.
âHow can there be such beauty in the worldâŠâ
âSo beautiful!!â
ââŠâ
Murmured whispers spilled from the mouths of the crowd.
At the same moment, Jiang Ning also became entranced.
He saw himself suddenly in the center of a hot spring.
He stood in the midst of the mist-shrouded hot spring center, seeing various women as beautiful as fairies and as seductive as witches, frolicking and playing in the water.
Some were naked, some draped in sheer fabrics, some bearing allâŠ
As they played, the splashing water occasionally hit him.
And then someone wrapped around him from behind, her peaks grinding against his back, her legs hooking around his waist.
A fire of desire erupted within him, and his body began to burn with heat.
Elsewhere,
The woman in black landed on the roof ridge from midair.
She touched her cheek and immediately felt a slight pain and noticed blood on her jade-like fingers.
Then she let out a charming smile.
âWhat a fine young man!â
Her holy face was now filled with a captivating smile, her eyes charged with seduction.
Then, she tapped her black embroidered shoe on the roof ridge, and her form was as light as a dandelion seed, flying obliquely towards the city wall.
Watching the wall draw closer, and with Jiang Ning on the battlement still as a statue, no reaction to be seen, her smile grew even more profound.
