Merging with Demon Spirits

Chapter 97: Chapter 86: Hunter and Prey (Part 2)

At this moment, he was already confident he could shoot Lin Feng.

”Hehe.”

Lin Feng could sense the opponent’s confidence. Without wasting words, he placed two arrows on the bowstring and shot them simultaneously.

”One Bow, Two Arrows!”

Meng Hai’s smile faded. His blue pupils dilated and contracted continuously. With his Demon Spirit talent, he quickly captured the trajectory of the two arrows aimed at his heart and head. Even though he saw the paths, such archery still sent chills down his spine.

This youth was indeed a Divine Archer, a Body Cultivation Realm archer. Even if the enemy was a First Grade Martial Artist, or an archer Demon Spirit Master, he still had the courage to use One Bow, Two Arrows.

Whoosh!

Meng Hai quickly dodged. Just as he was about to pull the bowstring, another arrow appeared in front of him. Meng Hai prepared to dodge to the right, but suddenly halted his steps as another arrow appeared on the right. If he moved right, he would be hit by the second arrow.

Arrow of Prediction!

Meng Hai was not surprised or panicked; this was one of the skills every archer must master, which he also possessed!

Meng Hai dodged left. Just when he thought he was safe, another arrow appeared before him. Meng Hai lightly tapped the ground and quickly dodged right. No matter how he evaded, the silver arrows closely followed him. The third, fourth, fifth... didn’t allow him a moment’s respite. After dodging seven arrows, suddenly, an arrow appeared in his vision.

Too close!

For the first time, Meng Hai’s eyes showed anxiety and fear. The Spiritual Power within him surged quickly, attempting to escape, but out of the corner of his eye, he saw another arrow flying toward him, seemingly aiming for the spot he intended to dodge.

How to dodge?

”Pfft!”

In the moment of Meng Hai’s hesitation, the arrow pierced through his heart, leaving a bloody hole.

”You...”

Meng Hai collapsed to the ground, ignoring the intense pain in his chest, and stared intently at Lin Feng with dimming eyes, still containing a trace of shock!

Even to his death, he never imagined dying at the hands of a Body Cultivation Realm martial artist. Nor did he expect that the Arrow of Prediction, a skill every archer knew, could be used in such a way!

Only upon dying did he realize that each of his evasions was not capturing the trajectory of the arrows, but the result of Lin Feng’s meticulous design. From the first arrow, it was a trap, a trap leading step by step to death.

”What kind of archery is this?”

Xie Bing was both amazed and shocked, unable to believe his eyes.

In the duel between Lin Feng and Meng Hai, from the result of the first arrow, it was clear Meng Hai’s Power was stronger, especially after his Demon Transformation, which made him terrifying. But who could have thought, from Lin Feng’s second arrow, the One Bow, Two Arrows, Meng Hai was like a monkey being toyed with by a hunter, bouncing up and down with no rest.

”I surrender. I’ll give you the Basic-Level Demon-Sealing Soul Artifact worth millions, just spare me.”

After Meng Hai died, the Eagle threw down his dagger and shield, raising his hands and shouting.

He had completely given up resisting, as even the much stronger captain had died at Lin Feng’s hands. He had no chance of escaping.

Whoosh!

Just as the Eagle finished speaking, Lin Feng, without hesitation, drew the bowstring, and an arrow pierced through his throat.

He already knew the archer’s position. Those things were probably on the large tree where the archer was. There was no need for the opponent to reveal it.

He knew these five masked men were likely assassins, not mere adventurers, but it had nothing to do with him. He did not want to get caught up in any trouble.

He was still very weak now, and protecting himself was the most important thing.

Seeing Lin Feng kill the Eagle without any hesitation, Xie Bing and his group trembled slightly, exchanging glances, unable to suppress a chill in their hearts.

They felt nauseated seeing so many corpses, but Lin Feng showed no change in expression even after killing five people! That demeanor was no different from killing a Demon Beast.

”Feng Lin, thank you. Without you, we would have been doomed.”

Xie Bing quickly came to his senses and expressed his gratitude.

Xie Lingling and the other two returned to Wen’s side, saying nothing, but their eyes reflected gratitude and emotion when they glanced at Lin Feng. Without Lin Feng, they might have been doomed.

”I’ll be back soon!”

Lin Feng gave Xie Bing a look but said nothing more. He ran toward the large tree where he’d previously discovered the archer. After thoroughly searching, he quickly found the package hidden in the branches by the archer.

Four packages, three of which contained materials from Demon Beasts, all from First Grade Demon Beasts, worth about a few hundred thousand. The truly valuable item was a basketball-sized transparent crystal with yellowish patterns.

Basic-Level Demon-Sealing Soul Artifact.

At least worth ten million New Coins.

”No wonder people choose to become Hunters knowing it’s a dead-end road.”

Lin Feng thought to himself.

In Senhai, a typical five-person adventure team might not make ten million New Coins in a year and could even lose their lives, permanently buried in Senhai.

Hunting a rookie team could earn a year’s income; it’s too tempting for many.

Lin Feng smiled slightly, considering it a pleasant surprise!

Who would have thought that his first venture into Senhai would yield such a bounty?

Ten million!

Enough for Nightmare’s food for three months.

Carrying four packages, Lin Feng quickly returned to the pond.

Xie Bing’s group looked at Lin Feng’s packages without questioning.

They knew these packages might be worth millions, but it had nothing to do with them. Lin Feng had killed the five, and even their lives were saved by him. They wouldn’t dare have any other thoughts.

”These two packages should be worth about a million, give them to Wen’s parents!”

Lin Feng tossed two packages to Xie Bing.

”Don’t mention this incident, or you could get into trouble!”

Lin Feng told Xie Bing.

”Thank you!”

Xie Bing nodded while holding the packages. He understood that the situation was not simple, and with everyone else dead, staying away from trouble was the safest approach.

”Mm, got it.”

Xie Bing, feeling down, looked at Wen, tears in his eyes. Although they were lucky to survive, Wen had died because of his decision.

He didn’t know how to break this news to Wen’s parents.

”It’s past five. You four should hurry out of Senhai, and I’ll cover you from behind!”

Lin Feng picked up his packages from the ground. Two packages weighing over a hundred pounds weren’t too heavy.

”Take these two Soul Nourishing Pills.” He tossed two pills to Xie Bing and Lin Xuan and disappeared from sight.

Xie Bing and Lin Xuan were grateful. A Soul Nourishing Pill was worth 200,000, and Lin Feng, whom they had just met by chance, was indeed generous.

”Let’s go. I’ll carry Wen, Lin Xuan, you carry the injured Zhang Xun!”

......

With Lin Feng escorting them, the Demon Beasts hidden in the jungle couldn’t escape a single arrow. Xie Bing’s team journeyed safely, and after half an hour, as they neared Senhai’s entrance, meeting more than ten adventure teams, Lin Feng found no need to continue escorting them. He took the lead out of Senhai.

”670,000!”

”Mm!”

At the trading district, Lin Feng sold all the materials he had hunted, keeping only the package holding the Basic-Level Sealing Crystal.

Then he returned to the equipment zone, storing his bow and arrows to avoid the hassle of carrying them home. The storage locker wasn’t expensive, only twenty New Coins a day.

When Lin Feng exited Senhai, he didn’t know that at Jiangxin Middle School, all the board members and school leaders hadn’t left work, and a meeting centered around him was in heated discussion.
