Zheng Quchi couldn't help but let his thoughts wander, and for a moment his heart tightened.
"So this map of mountains and rivers really is in the hands of your Zheng family." Mo Ye smiled coldly, his thick eyebrows furrowing, his fierce eyes fixed on her. "It's time to pay back the debt you owed me back then, isn't it?"
“Yes, come and get it if you want it.” She spread her hands out to him.
Mo Ye stroked the horse's mane with his large hand: "Could it be that this map is on you?"
Zheng Quchi raised an eyebrow, grinned, and said, "What, you don't believe me? Or are you too scared?"
Upon hearing her provocative words, Mo Ye suddenly burst into laughter: "Zheng Quchi, even if I'm stupid, I won't be fooled by you again and again. It seems you really won't shed tears until you see the coffin. Whose power do you think you're relying on to be so arrogant now? Yuwen Sheng? Or his Yuwen family's secret guards?"
Mo Ye stared intently into her indifferent eyes, as if trying to tear away the composure on her face. He stretched out his arm and waved his hand: "If you want to fly, I'll cut off your wings. Shoot down the people in the water!"
The archers immediately changed direction and began firing wildly around Zheng Quchi's ship, leaving no corner untouched.
Zheng Quchi never expected him to do this.
The long arrow shot straight into the water with a "whoosh," creating ripples that spread outwards, stirring up turbulent undercurrents beneath the dark green water.
Zheng Quchi's heart pounded like a drum, and he immediately shouted into the water.
"You all need to get out of here!"
"Don't worry about me!"
"Let's all leave!"
However, these guards were all under Yuwen Sheng's strict orders to escort Zheng Quchi away safely, so even if they lost their lives, they would never abandon Zheng Quchi and run away.
The sight of blood gushing from underwater indicates that someone has definitely been wounded by an arrow, and their fate is unknown.
As Zheng Quchi anxiously looked around on the boat, he sensed that the boat was moving slightly.
As the fire gradually blew towards them, they decided to use their last bit of strength to get the lady away from the flames.
Mo Ye finally got to see Zheng Quchi's anxious and flustered expression. He smirked and said, "Keep shooting!"
"Stop!" Zheng Quchi turned to look at Mo Ye. Her eyes were like sharp swords, and Mo Ye could no longer find the passion and love he once had in her eyes.
It's like... she never had feelings for him, and all those things between them were just fleeting memories, leaving no trace.
"Ha ha..." Mo Ye laughed sarcastically, nodding repeatedly: "Well, Zheng Quchi, you really change your mind quickly. When you were using me, you made all sorts of promises and lieds. Now that you've found someone else, you're planning to forget everything?"
"You're dreaming."
His eyes suddenly turned cold and stern, revealing a ruthless, desperate determination as he said, "I don't want anything anymore, including you and your damned maps. Since you've chosen Yuwen Sheng and chosen to die, then I'll grant your wish."
"Don't worry about it, just kill them all."
As he uttered the last word, his heart inexplicably turned cold.
"yes."
The Julu troops immediately took up their positions. This time, their arrows were wrapped in flaming cotton, and once lit, they shot towards the boats in the river like fireballs.
Meanwhile, Zheng Quchi also raised her hand. She lifted her sleeve, and the hidden arrow on her arm was aimed directly at Mo Ye. Her movements were incredibly fast, as if she had rehearsed this scene dozens or even hundreds of times in her mind.
"Mo Ye——"
Her cold shout made Mo Ye instinctively raise his eyes, but her arrow reached his position even faster than her voice.
Mo Ye's pupils constricted, he reined in his horse and hurriedly retreated, while the soldiers on both sides rushed forward to block the arrow for him.
However, Zheng Quchi's specialty was the Star and Moon Arrow Combo. The "Star Arrow" came first to confuse the enemy, causing them to lose their composure and become disoriented. Then, the "Moon Arrow" followed, which was the real deadly arrow.
The first arrow had barely been released when her second arrow was already nocked on the bowstring. The whole process was clean and efficient, without any deviation or wobbling.
She knew there were so many people that she couldn't possibly kill them all, and she also knew it would be difficult for her to escape from this encirclement. But she thought that at least she should drag Mo Ye, her enemy, along with her.
We can't just let her and Yuwen Sheng die in vain.
But just as the unerring "moon arrow" was about to be released, a sharp pain shot through her chest as if it were about to explode. Her fingers tightened suddenly, but she was determined not to give up such a good opportunity for revenge. She was determined to shoot it no matter what, even if it hurt her to death.
However, if the arrow in her hand is even slightly off-target, it will deviate from her intended aim.
What should have been a fatal blow, though the arrow struck Mo Ye squarely in the chest, missed his heart and killed him instantly.
He clutched his bleeding chest, his face deathly pale, staring in stunned disbelief in Zheng Quchi's direction.
Her eyes were icy cold, and her right ribs and spine formed a sharp, deadly bow-drawing posture.
She said with regret, "You're so lucky to be alive..."
That person from before left this world with such deep feelings and longing for him. Even after disappearing from this world, this body still showed him mercy and refused to harm him.
But that person is that person, and Zheng Quchi is Zheng Quchi. Her heart is free and not bound by anyone, but unfortunately, she is just a little bit lacking.
As she watched the arrows streak across the sky, their flames illuminating the heavens before her, she felt an almost supernatural tranquility.
How incredible!
