Jiang Feng ran forward without looking back.
Each step covered more than ten meters.
His graceful body technique made him appear like a spiritual monkey in the alleys.
One moment, he was leaping over rooftops.
The next, he was sprinting through courtyards.
For a while, he left the likes of the fake Ge Huizhong and others feeling frustrated.
They tried various methods to block Jiang Feng, even launching all sorts of hidden weapons from behind, but Jiang Feng relied on his Monkey Escape Technique, with mastery-level speed coupled with familiarity with the terrain, and broke through their encirclement several times.
"Is he a monkey?"
"Too fast."
The two sixth-grade martial artists lamented.
They exerted all their strength but were never able to touch even the corner of Jiang Feng's clothes.
They even felt as though Jiang Feng's silhouette was getting farther away.
"Whoosh!"
The cold wind howled past his ear as Jiang Feng leaped through a narrow alley into another alley.
Eventually, he decided to run back home.
Not to hide.
But to retrieve the Overlord Bow.
He had to counterattack.
Otherwise, if he kept running without completely shaking them off, once he was exhausted, they would swarm in, and Jiang Feng would certainly perish.
And after running all the way,
Jiang Feng realized that he could shake off everyone else.
But the fake Ge Huizhong was an exception.
That fake Ge Huizhong had fifth-grade Blood Refining cultivation and also mastered body martial arts. Although his level was not as high as Jiang Feng's, he relied on his strong qi and blood power to keep trailing Jiang Feng from thirty meters behind.
Trying to shake him off quickly was utterly impossible.
Jiang Feng had no choice but to counterattack.
Finally, he returned to his courtyard.
"Bang!"
He kicked a water jar in the yard, from under which he pulled out a black cloth bag, quickly slinging it over his shoulder. With a point of his foot on the ground, his body leaped up like a spiritual monkey, landing on the rooftop, and swiftly darted away.
"Thud, thud!"
Just as Jiang Feng left the ground.
Three darts were nailed to the spot where he had stood.
Even the fleeting rooftops had darts flying toward them.
If he slowed down even a little,
the darts would hit him.
"You can't escape."
Fake Ge Huizhong's face was somber.
His body technique was not as good as Jiang Feng's. He managed to stay in pursuit mainly by using darts to disrupt him.
Unfortunately, Jiang Feng's body technique was too agile, always able to evade.
At this moment, seeing Jiang Feng pull a black cloth bag from under the water jar, he felt something was amiss.
At this moment as well, Jiang Feng, whose steps never paused, quickly took out the Overlord Bow from the black cloth bag.
He had hidden the Overlord Bow under the courtyard's water jar precisely to deal with such situations calmly one day.
Thus, the bag was designed very well.
The Overlord Bow could be easily drawn out.
And all arrows were slung diagonally across his back.
At this moment, with the Overlord Bow in hand, the world was in his grasp.
Jiang Feng leaped onto a rooftop and swiftly drew the bow and noosed the arrow, shooting towards the relentlessly pursuing fake Ge Huizhong behind him.
At this moment, the distance between them shrank from over thirty meters to just a little over ten meters.
Retrieving the Overlord Bow, drawing the bow and noosing the arrow, wasted some of Jiang Feng's time.
The moment the arrowhead pointed at the opponent, it seemed as if fake Ge Huizhong was within arm's reach.
Jiang Feng saw a glint of light in front of him.
"Whoosh!"
Without hesitation, he released the arrow in his hand.
"Clang!"
The light was a dart that fake Ge Huizhong had launched earlier.
Seeing Jiang Feng pause and turn, he knew it was a crucial kill opportunity.
However, he hadn't expected that Jiang Feng's archery skill, at the Hundred-step Piercing Willow level, would knock the dart aside, and the arrow would continue firing towards his face.
"What?"
Fake Ge Huizhong was astounded, tilting his head in a hurry, dashing into the alley from the rooftop.
The arrow nailed to a distant wall.
When he peeked out from the alley,
"Whoosh!"
He seemed to see the chilling arrowhead, hurriedly lowering his head, huddling beneath the wall, while the incoming arrow embedded itself in the ground behind him, with the arrow's tail vibrating, half of the arrow driven into the ground.
"Be careful, he's a divine archer."
Fake Ge Huizhong exclaimed.
Hoping his approaching companions could take note.
At this critical moment, Jiang Feng knocked fake Ge Huizhong's dart aside with one arrow, forcing fake Ge Huizhong from the opposite rooftop into the alley. The second arrow confined fake Ge Huizhong within the alley, daring not to poke his head out.
At this moment standing on the rooftop,
he saw seventy to eighty meters ahead.
Two sixth-grade martial artists finally caught up.
He knew this was an opportunity.
Quickly he darted to the back of another rooftop, at a spot that not only let him see the movement in the alley but also effectively evade fake Ge Huizhong's hidden weapons.
He swiftly drew the bow and noosed the arrow.
"Whoosh!"
"Whoosh!"
Two arrows shot out as if simultaneously.
With his divine archery skill reaching mastery level, not only could he achieve the Hundred-step Piercing Willow, but the speed of drawing the bow and noosing the arrow was also extraordinary, leaving ordinary martial artists unable to react.
"Quick, dodge!"
Fake Ge Huizhong exclaimed.
Quickly darting out from the alley, sprinting under the eaves towards Jiang Feng.
He knew that as long as he could get close, Jiang Feng's divine archery would be rendered ineffective.
"Pfft!"
"Ah!"
Screams echoed.
Jiang Feng's first arrow pierced through the chest of the leading sixth-grade martial artist, causing him to tumble headfirst off the rooftop.
The second arrow was shot as the person began to react, yet his archery skill, at the Hundred-step Piercing Willow level, didn't hit the opponent's chest, but still struck the opponent's shoulder, making him fall off the rooftop as well.
"Court's lackey, aren't you afraid of being hunted by my sect brothers for life?"
"Whoosh!"
"Damn!"
Fake Ge Huizhong finally used the cover of the eaves to arrive beneath the rooftop where Jiang Feng was.
As he leapt up, he saw that Jiang Feng had already, using his body martial arts, silently and swiftly leaped onto another thatched roof.
And hid behind a chimney.
Suddenly shooting an arrow at him.
This arrow was too fast.
Fake Ge Huizhong couldn't fully dodge.
His cheek got cut.
Blood gushed out.
Hastily he hid under the eaves again.
Jiang Feng remained silent.
His body quickly rushed towards the sixth-grade martial artist whom he had shot in the shoulder and who had fallen off the rooftop.
He leaped nimbly over the rooftops, glancing back towards the direction where fake Ge Huizhong was.
A moment too late, he saw fake Ge Huizhong peeking from behind a wall.
"Whoosh!"
Without hesitation.
He shot an arrow from far away, nailing it to the adobe wall, piercing the corner of the wall, scaring fake Ge Huizhong to turn and run towards another wall.
Jiang Feng successfully landed on another rooftop.
This angle allowed him to see the sixth-grade martial artist he had shot in the shoulder.
The opponent was a tough character.
He gritted his teeth, pulling out the arrow, tending to the wound to stop the bleeding.
Jiang Feng was overjoyed, quickly shooting three consecutive arrows.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!"
Realizing the danger, the opponent looked up only to see the arrows approaching, he was just about to roll away, then got struck in the waist and abdomen, a scream hadn't even escaped when his thigh was hit by another arrow, falling uncontrollably forward, and before his knee touched the ground, a third arrow pierced through his throat, pinning him to the adobe wall.
Leaving him suspended with knees in a kneeling position, his body tightly pressed against the wall, dying like so.
