Chapter 2859: One Arrow Shocks the World
At this time, the generals and guards around Monk were also shocked and rushed over to protect him.
But Monk showed no fear at all, his cold eyes stared straight at Zhu Feng!
Although it was only a brief moment, from the time Zhu Feng took over the divine arm bow to the time he aimed it at Monk in the distance, it was not even a breath of human breath, but everyone's thoughts were already clear.
Monk, he wanted to see.
Let’s see if Zhu Feng is really okay.
Or, he was already seriously injured, but for the sake of the overall situation, he forced himself to show up on the city wall to encourage his soldiers and make the people of Dian give up.
He wants to see the result!
And under the city wall, the soldiers who had been rolling in the mud and sea of blood for a whole night all stopped when they saw this scene. They stared with wide eyes at the arrows flashing coldly in the sunlight, aiming at Monk in the distance.
At this moment, not only did Nan Yan shut her mouth after being scolded by Zhu Feng, but even her heartbeat seemed to stop.
The heaven and earth also condensed at this moment.
Then, Nan Yan heard a "click".
Then her heart began to beat violently.
A cold light suddenly shot out from the crossbow, as if it instantly cut through the last bit of darkness before dawn and dispelled all the conspiracies. The crossbow arrow flew towards Monk with the force of thunder.
"His Majesty--!"
Just when everyone was unable to react, or even had no time to react at all, Temur, who was originally standing next to Monk, instinctively spread his arms and stood in front of Monk.
Suddenly, something cut off his voice.
His tall body stood in front of Monk and froze for a moment. When Monk raised his head, he felt something hot sprayed on his face. Then, his shoulder seemed to be hit hard by something, almost knocking him off his horse.
Severe pain followed!
"His Majesty!"
"The Emperor has been shot by an arrow! Protect him! Protect him quickly!"
"Protect His Majesty, everyone come and protect His Majesty!"
The people around suddenly shouted. Monk just opened his eyes wide and looked at Temur standing in front of him. There was a bloody hole on his back, and blood was constantly spurting onto his face.
And he himself——
He seemed a little stiff and slowly lowered his head.
The crossbow arrow pierced Temur's body, and the remaining force hit his shoulder and almost penetrated his body!
What a domineering force!
Monk looked down at the crossbow arrow that only exposed half of the body, then looked up at the tall figure on the city wall. This arrow not only hit him, but also shattered their expectations and their plans.
It also shattered the morale of the entire army!
Everyone saw that the emperor was injured. They also saw Temur, the first warrior of their Neng country, standing in front of the emperor. The arrow pierced his heart. At this moment, the tall and majestic man, the object of admiration in everyone's hearts, collapsed to the ground!
Bars and the others shouted hurriedly, and the surrounding soldiers all rushed forward frantically, protecting Monk in the center.
Those who were about to rush forward to attack the city of Peking stopped at this moment.
Even, keep moving backwards.
Watching the chaotic scene around him, even though he knew the arrow in his shoulder wouldn't be fatal, the army's morale was already in disarray. In Monk's heart, he knew the outcome was certain.
Can't fight anymore.
He was helped off his horse by the crowd and escorted back. He gritted his teeth and said to Bars, "Retreat. Everyone retreat and maintain formation to prevent them from catching up."
“……!”
Bars was startled.
Originally, His Majesty the Emperor was injured and they were all in chaos, but they didn't expect that Monk could still be so calm at this time.
Indeed, if so many people retreated in a disorderly manner, not to mention whether the people behind them would pursue them, the chaotic trampling among them would result in countless casualties.
So, he nodded, told the people behind him to protect the emperor, and quickly turned to the surrounding personal guards and shouted: "Everyone, form a battle line, form a battle line and retreat, don't make a mess, don't make a mess!"
The severe pain in my shoulder came in waves.
Monk was not someone who fought all year round. Although this injury was not fatal to him, it was extremely painful. He was breathing heavily, and a chaotic crowd of people was swaying in front of his eyes.
Amidst this chaotic crowd, he kept his eyes fixed on the figure on the city wall in the distance.
Zhu Feng!
This is not the end!
At the same time, as if he heard what Monk said in his heart, Zhu Feng, holding the heavy divine arm bow in one hand, stood on the city wall and coldly watched the army gathering and retreating below. His pale lips, almost bloodless, curled up slightly in a sneer.
No problem.
There was an unyielding arrogance in his eyes.
I'm waiting for you!

Finally, the entire army of the Neng Kingdom withdrew.
What was left behind were corpses scattered all over the ground and a river of blood that almost soaked the entire land under the city wall.
This battle was so brutal.
How tragic.
It can even be said that it was a miserable victory.
But no matter what, they still won. Despite such a huge gap in military strength, they still protected their territory, their capital, and everyone in the city.
Under the city wall, those soldiers covered in blood, and on the city wall, those exhausted soldiers defending the city, all watched intently as the smoke and dust gradually settled. In the smoke and dust, there was no longer any trace of the soldiers of the Dian Kingdom, and they all cheered.
"We won! We won!"
The deafening cheers, like the black column of smoke in the distance, shot straight into the sky!
Luo Qitong, who had been gritting his teeth and was as tense as the divine bow arm since last night, also laughed at this time, raised the long sword in his hand that was chopped into pieces, and cheered with everyone.
Seeing this scene, the tears that Nan Yan had already swallowed came up again.
They won, they really won.
However, it was not only because of the victory in this war, but also because—
Thinking of this, she slowly turned her head and looked at the man standing in front of her. Although she was only looking at his back, Zhu Feng's towering figure made her feel safer and more secure at this moment than the towering city walls.
He woke up and he was fine!
Great! Great!
Nan Yan took a step forward and said with tears in her eyes: "Your Majesty, I——"
However, before she could finish her words, she suddenly froze when she saw Zhu Feng's face, and stared at him with wide eyes in horror.
In the sunlight, one could see that there was no trace of blood on Zhu Feng's face.
However, on his chest, a pool of blood slowly spread.
