Chapter 102 - One of the Three Godly Archers
“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?’
“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.”
