Reborn Divine Doctor: The Abandoned Girl's Legend

Chapter 536: Chapter 406: Unexpected Gain, Three Divine Arrows

Could it be?

Ye Lingyue’s mind was struck by a bold thought. Was Little Zhiyo imitating others, using Prohibition Power to forge its own flesh body?

Ye Lingyue’s guess was soon confirmed. Little Zhiyo, relying on its flesh and blood body, did not shrink back in the slightest, time and again braving the assaults of the Light Talisman Balls.

At first, the attacks of the Light Talisman Balls left Little Zhiyo with skin split and flesh torn, causing excruciating pain.

But as the number of attacks increased, the Prohibition Power began to seep into Little Zhiyo’s body, its flesh, bones, and fur, bit by bit.

Peeling away the damaged skin, a new layer of skin rapidly grew over Little Zhiyo’s body.

This new skin was bizarre in appearance, resembling a turtle shell with a thick, crystalline and translucent layer that looked incredibly splendid.

The Prohibition Power gradually weakened. The Light Talisman Ball could only manage a fleeting resurgence, occasionally bursting forth with a streak of Prohibition Power that, when striking Little Zhiyo, felt no more significant than a mosquito bite.

More than half an hour passed.

Little Zhiyo actually managed to engage in a standoff with that Light Talisman Ball all on its own.

Eventually, Little Zhiyo realized the Light Talisman Ball was running out of Prohibition Power. With a fierce pounce, it grabbed the ball and slammed it onto the ground. With a smack, it swatted it down as if it were a fly.

The poor Light Talisman Ball cracked open, and from within tumbled out three arrows.

Seeing the arrows, Ye Lingyue had an epiphany. The Light Talisman Ball had actually sealed inside it three arrows of Yi God’s Void-breaking Bow.

However, what thrilled Ye Lingyue the most was the transformation that had occurred in Little Zhiyo.

The little fellow’s performance was undoubtedly stunning, and what’s more regrettable was that its physical body seemed to be strengthened.

Everyone gazed at Little Zhiyo as if it were a monster because it had actually absorbed the energy within the Light Talisman Ball!

After successfully completing the task, Little Zhiyo still appeared reluctant to leave as it lifted its head to gaze at the three remaining Light Talisman Balls in the sky.

”Cough cough.” Cong Lv just couldn’t help but cough a few times.

His implication was to inform Ye Lingyue that those three Light Talisman Balls were theirs.

Feeling both amused and helpless, Ye Lingyue walked forward and gave Little Zhiyo a congratulatory pat on its head.

”Good job, once we get out, a hundred roasted chicken drumsticks as a reward.”

”Zhiyo (seeking praise, seeking hugs)” Little Zhiyo was weeping with joy. Its golden eyes swiftly retracted, shrinking as if in water, and with a plop, it transformed back into the original Little Cute Dog form, carrying the three arrows in its mouth to deliver them to Ye Lingyue’s hands.

It also didn’t forget to snuggle into its boss’s embrace for some affection.

Ye Lingyue gazed at the three arrows in her hand. Their shafts were blood red, with a violent aura flowing over them.

The other three factions, especially Chen Minzhi, watched the arrows in Ye Lingyue’s hands with a brief flash of covetous light in their eyes.

Ye Lingyue couldn’t help but smile wryly in her heart. Little Zhiyo had outperformed itself this time by actually snatching the Divine Arrow of the Yi God’s Void-shattering Bow.

She had noticed earlier that the Yi God’s Void-shattering Bow came without arrows, and had suspected that the arrows might be sealed within the Light Talisman Ball, but she hadn’t expected them to end up in her hands.

A good horse needs a good saddle; only with the Yi God Void-breaking Arrows can a Heavenly grade Divine Weapon like the Yi God’s Void-shattering Bow truly fulfill its potential.

The prohibition on the bow has not yet been broken. Once the prohibition is completely lifted, the other forces will certainly not take this lying down.

”Congratulations, Miss Ye.” Cong Lv managed to be gracious, stepping forward to congratulate Ye Lingyue, and took a few extra glances at Little Zhiyo.

Little Zhiyo, however, haughtily rolled its eyes at him and continued to feign death, lying in Ye Lingyue’s arms.

”There are only three Light Talisman Balls left; it seems that it’s up to Brother Cong and myself from here on.”

Chen Minzhi chuckled twice, exchanging a glance with Cong Lv.

Both Cong Lv and Chen Minzhi had intentionally stayed out of the fray earlier.

They both understood that Shooting Nine Suns was just the beginning; the real contest lay ahead.

Once the nine Light Talisman Balls were broken, and the prohibition on the Yi God’s Void-shattering Bow was removed, the facade of harmony that had been maintained for half a month would surely be shattered.

Originally, Cong Lv and Chen Minzhi both planned to make their move at the critical moment.

But who could have predicted that the Yi God Void-breaking Arrow would, by some twist of fate, fall into Ye Lingyue’s hands.

In such a case, even if one managed to snatch the bow, it would be in vain without the arrow.

Both men looked thoughtfully at Ye Lingyue.

How could Ye Lingyue not understand their intentions? She gave a dry laugh, pulled out two arrows, and handed one to Chen Minzhi and one to Cong Lv, one in each hand.

”With only three Light Talisman Balls left, with the capabilities of you two, whoever ends up obtaining the Yi God’s Void-shattering Bow will definitely be one of you. To be honest, my purpose for entering Xingxiu Cave this time was to seek the Yi God’s Void-shattering Bow. Whether or not I get the Spiritual Artifact is secondary; my goal has always been to save the people and the military of the Xixia Plain. If you two are willing to agree, to lend me the Yi God’s Void-shattering Bow once you obtain it so that I can quell the disaster on the Xixia Plain, I am very willing to give both of these arrows to you.”

After Ye Lingyue spoke, both Chen Minzhi and Cong Lv were taken aback, clearly not expecting Ye Lingyue to give away the Yi God Void-breaking Arrows that she had acquired.

But soon after, both Chen Minzhi and Cong Lv understood Ye Lingyue’s intention.

In their hearts, they both thought: Ye Lingyue is indeed clever; knowing that her position is weaker, she chose to advance by retreating at this moment. It seems like she’s giving away the arrows, but it’s actually killing two birds with one stone, winning people’s hearts while also avoiding the misfortune of being chased later on.

”Thank you, Lady Ye. Beiqing and Daxia have always been allied nations. If Cong here is fortunate enough to get the Yi God’s Void-shattering Bow, I will definitely honor the promise to assist Daxia in settling the turmoil in Xixia,” said Cong Lv as he nodded in appreciation and took the arrow from Ye Lingyue.

”Minzhi feels the same. If I manage to obtain the bow, I will certainly not forget the kindness of Lady Ye’s gifted arrows,” said Chen Minzhi, also smiling faintly as he took the other arrow.

Three arrows, two given away in an instant. Ye Lingyue didn’t feel any regret; on the contrary, it made her feel much more relieved.

However, the Daxia Delegation, including Hong Mingyue and Luo Song, saw Ye Lingyue give away two arrows at once, but purposely did not hand out the last one, and their expressions were ugly.

”Ye Lingyue, you are a citizen of Daxia, yet you give the arrows to people from Beiqing. Aren’t you afraid Emperor Xia will punish you when you return to Daxia!” exclaimed Hong Mingyue indignantly.

”How laughable. Weren’t you the first ones to exclude me when the Daxia Delegation was formed? Now you’re bringing me up. The arrows are mine, how I use them and who I give them to is my business, and it has nothing to do with anyone else or any country,” Ye Lingyue sneered coldly, paying no more attention to Hong Mingyue and the others.
