Lan Hua exclaimed in surprise, "Another Half-Heaven Realm!"
Huo Xiaoxiao said, "You also know about the Half-Heaven Realm?"
"I know a little."
Lan Hua thought of Duanmu Qian and Nalan Ruode, both of whom came from the Half-Heaven Realm.
Huo Xiaoxiao said, "That person is called Duanmu Rong, and she said she comes from the famous Duanmu family, known for its archery!"
"This Crimson Moon Bow was given to me by Sister Duanmu, and she also taught me the Invisible Arrow Technique!"
The crimson Zhu Yue Bow, with its flamboyant and unrestrained display, is quite extraordinary and is a rare and superior-grade treasure.
Lan Hua murmured, "So, the Duanmu family is known as a family of archers!"
"I wonder what the relationship is between Duanmu Rong and Duanmu Qian? Are they sisters?"
Lan Hua said, "When I saw you fighting Chen Ke, you were very calm and quick-witted. You are truly a natural-born archer!"
Huo Xiaoxiao smiled and said, "That's what Sister Duanmu told me back then, and she also said that the Xuanbing Technique I cultivate can enhance the power of the Invisible Arrow Technique!"
"Our sect is mainly focused on sword cultivation, and now I'm the only one who's an archer, which makes me feel out of place!"
Lan Hua thought the man was right. If he were to compete with Huo Xiaoxiao in archery, his invisible arrows would really be no match for her ice arrows.
"Do you know anything about the Half-Heaven Realm?"
Huo Xiaoxiao shook her head and said, "All I know is that this Half-Heaven Realm is the same size as the Xuanyu World, and it is an independent world. There is a passage between the two worlds!"
"Oh? Where is that?" Lan Hua asked curiously.
"I don't know about that!"
"However, according to the elders in my sect, it is not easy for people from the Xuan Yu World to enter the Half-Heaven Realm! It seems that only those at the Pill God Realm are allowed to enter!"
"The Pill God Realm? That's a rather high requirement!"
After learning that there were renowned archery masters in the Half-Heaven Realm, Lan Hua became interested in the Half-Heaven Realm.
He secretly made up his mind to go to the Half-Heaven Realm another day to learn the art of archery.
Huo Xiaoxiao asked, "How can we defeat Chen Ke?"
Lan Hua thought for a moment and said, "I saw you shoot out a cloud-piercing arrow earlier, the one that could explode. Do you have any more?"
"A cloud-piercing arrow?"
"You called that golden arrow the Cloud Piercing Arrow?"
Lan Hua nodded.
"That was a good name, but unfortunately it's gone. That was the last one I used!"
"Since you know about this arrow, you should know how precious it is!"
"I was able to rank second on the newcomer list, thanks in no small part to Piercing Arrow!"
Lan Hua felt it was a pity; if he had still had one of the Cloud Piercing Arrows, Chen Ke would have been dead without a doubt.
"Then we'll just have to wait until your injuries heal so we can work together to kill you!"
For the next few days, Lan Hua and Huo Xiaoxiao shared a room.
The two got to know each other better.
Huo Xiaoxiao was indeed a cold and aloof beauty; she would hardly utter a word unless Lan Hua took the initiative to speak.
Most of the time, he was practicing internal energy to heal his injuries.
The Xuanbing Technique of Guanghan Palace is extremely powerful; when used, it makes the entire dilapidated house ice-cold.
Even when facing the firewood, Lan Hua could feel the chill creeping over her.
Fortunately, Lan Hua didn't care much and was planning her future path. Once this matter was settled, she planned to visit the Myriad Weapons Sect first.
This day.
Huo Xiaoxiao felt that her injuries had greatly improved.
"Lanhua, do you think Chen Ke has left?"
"You're an assassin too, don't you think?"
Huo Xiaoxiao said, "He must be lying in ambush nearby. This person has superb counter-surveillance abilities and is also a top-notch assassination expert!"
The thought of being targeted by a Yuan Dan realm assassin gave Lan Hua a headache.
This sense of oppression is truly a test of one's mental fortitude.
Lan Hua said, "The enemy is in the shadows, while we are in the light. The situation is very unfavorable for us!"
"The only way now is for me to go out and act as bait, while you secretly seize the opportunity to strike!"
"Chen Keding can't fathom the extent of your injuries!"
Huo Xiaoxiao nodded, "Be careful!"
Lan Hua retrieved the defensive talisman, held the bow in her left hand, and stepped out of the ruined Taoist temple.
He spread his divine sense far and wide, hoping to find a clue about Chen Ke.
Unfortunately, no.
After entering the Yuan Dan realm, Lan Hua was able to sense anything within a radius of a thousand feet.
Now that nothing has been found, either Chen Ke has already left, or he has used a secret technique to conceal his presence.
However, Lan Hua is more inclined to believe the latter.
Suddenly, Lan Hua leaped onto the roof of the Taoist temple's front courtyard.
His eyes flashed with a sharp light, and he used his extraordinary ability to see far and wide to carefully observe his surroundings, but still found no clues.
"I know how many birds there are within a radius of several miles, but there's just no sign of Chen Ke!"
"Could this kid have really run away?"
After waiting for a long time, Lan Hua still found nothing, so she put away her bow and gracefully flew to the ground.
Just as Lan Hua was about to land, three silver needles suddenly attacked.
Silent and incredibly fast, with only a few flashes of cold light.
"Holy crap! They didn't leave!"
The silver needle was shot at the perfect moment, just before Lan Hua hit the ground and before her new strength was generated.
Moreover, Lan Hua had already withdrawn her divine sense and was at her weakest point of alertness.
Lan Hua cursed Chen Kezu in her heart, then waved her right hand and summoned a defensive talisman.
boom!
The defensive talisman shattered, but the three silver needles were weak and were knocked away by Lan Hua's Heaven-Opening Palm.
Just as the three needles were knocked away, a figure suddenly shot up from the ground, followed by countless silver needles rushing towards Lan Hua, like a great dragon, trying to devour her.
It turned out that Chen Ke had been lying in ambush underground not far away, disguised very well.
Moreover, the hiding place was not far from the Taoist temple, only twenty zhang away.
He chose this distance because, with his cultivation level and acupuncture skills, twenty zhang (approximately 33 meters) was the distance at which the silver needles could exert their strongest power.
This distance is almost right in front of Lan Hua, yet it is also the easiest place to overlook.
Chen Ke's ideas were all verified one by one.
He didn't care about the injury of the other archer in the Taoist temple. As long as he could kill Lan Hua in an instant, everything would be resolved.
Moreover, Huo Xiaoxiao was severely injured by so many silver needles and posed no threat.
Lan Hua struck down with a palm, using the first move of the Heaven-Opening Palm, Severing the River.
A powerful palm strike pierced through the air, cleaving apart all the incoming silver needles, leaving the walls of the Taoist temple behind him riddled with needle holes.
In Lan Hua's view, the silver needles are not scary; as long as the trajectory of the silver needles is deflected, it will be fine.
Just like Chen Ke's great feat with a small silver needle, deflecting a heavy arrow.
Battle can also teach him a lot.
"Good lad, two sneak attacks couldn't defeat you!"
Lan Hua laughed and said, "Chen Ke, you really did show up after all. You couldn't resist!"
Chen Ke frowned slightly. "Did you deliberately create an opening to lure me into making a move?"
Lan Hua smiled and said, "As an assassin, shouldn't maintaining constant vigilance be a basic requirement?"
Did you read the book for nothing?
Although Lan Hua's performance lured Chen Ke out, she did not find his trace when she released her divine sense and used her clairvoyance.
This made Lan Hua put aside her carelessness and take it as a warning.
Although Chen Ke felt like he was being played, he quickly calmed down and put on a smiling face again.
"So what if you lure me out? If I can't kill you this time, I'll do it next time!"
Do you think there will be a next time?
