Chapter 373 – Garland’s Arrow

　　Under the ant queen’s provocation, the paper man in the sky seemed to be incomparably angry, the pale face on the paper twisted and flew to hover outside the palace.

　　Baili Fatty, An Qingyu, and Cao Yuan were close to the black palace door of the Imperial Palace, and their faces changed slightly when they saw the paper man’s near-crazy appearance.

　　At this moment, on the giant pillars above their heads, a large number of paper people had already noticed their presence and began to approach the place.

　　Where is Uncle Li? Chubby Baili suddenly realized something and looked around.

　　It seemed like he hadn’t followed them when they were climbing the stone slabs. An Qingyu then spoke.

　　When Cao Yuan heard this, he instead sighed in relief, It’s good, this place is too dangerous, his realm is not enough, in case something happens we may not be able to protect him.

　　Baili Fatty looked up, what now? The paper people gathering toward us are getting more and more …… tsk, why don t they go to kill that ant queen ah?

　　That ant queen seems to be very familiar with the situation here, knowing where to avoid the attacks of the paper people, it should not be the first time to enter Fengdu. An Qingyu pondered and opened her mouth.

　　Cao Yuan gazed at the increasing number of paper people accumulating in the sky, and after frowning and pondering for a moment, he put one hand on top of the black door behind him.

　　If we can’t, we’ll go in and hide, anyway, with Fatty’s chalk, we’ll be able to come out at any time.

　　As soon as Baili Fatty heard this, his face instantly became bitter, a little distressed about his chalk forbidden, but compared to his own life, he was still more willing to give up his money to avoid disaster.

　　Cao Yuan pushed open the dark door with force, and a chilly and icy aura came from it.

　　Lin Qiye carried Jia Lan on his back and quickly moved along the suspended stone slabs towards the red palace overhead.

　　He squinted at the top of the imperial palace and saw the dense paper people that surrounded the sky, as well as the ant queen that was hiding at the top of the palace to provoke the paper people ……

　　It knew that the paper people didn’t dare to enter the confines of the palace, so it was emboldened. Lin Qiye saw through the truth at a glance, also, it had descended into Fengdu two years ago, and it should have figured out some of the rules of the place by then, otherwise it wouldn’t have been able to escape to the outside world at all.

　　Jia Lan gazed at the ant queen at the top of the palace, and after a moment of contemplation, he tentatively asked, …… Kill …… it ……?

　　Lin Qiye nodded, We came here to kill it.

　　Jia Lan thought for a moment, reached behind her back and removed the yellowish hardwood bow, and drew another feathered arrow from the quiver, nocking the arrow on the bow, her slender fingers plucked the bowstring and slowly pulled the bow full ……

　　Lin Qiye suddenly froze when he saw this scene.

　　What are you doing? Kill.

　　Jia Lan aimed the tip of the arrow at the ant queen at the top of the palace, her bright eyes narrowed slightly, her blue robes fluttering in the wind as Lin Qiye ran, a faint white light coalescing at the sharp tip of the arrow.

　　At this instant, Lin Qiye clearly felt that a strange aura was gathering behind him, and with it, a faint sense of oppression.

　　Can it be shot down from such a distance? Lin Qiye subconsciously slowed his steps.

　　Jia Lan nodded, with her bow and arrow in hand, her aura seemed to have changed a bit.

　　The feathered arrow on the bowstring coalesced with white light, and with a release of Jia Lan’s fingertips, this feathered arrow whistled and pierced through the air, instantly disappearing from Lin Qiye’s range of perception.

　　Astonishment surfaced in Lin Qiye’s eyes.

　　This feather arrow speed, it’s a bit shockingly fast ah ……

　　The top of the Imperial Palace.

　　The Ant Queen’s body that had originally been blown apart by Mu Mu had been almost repaired, and it was lying on top of the carved wall at the top of the palace, wantonly roaring at the paper people in the sky.

　　Watching those paper people gather in the sky, wanting to come down but not daring to do so, it only felt incomparably soothed.

　　Whoosh–!

　　Right at this moment, a feathered arrow glowing with white light suddenly appeared at its side!

　　The ant queen was stunned, and subconsciously wanted to move her body to avoid it, but she realized that the target of this feather arrow was not it …… at all, but the top of the palace wall underneath her!

　　The feathered arrow instantly blasted on top of the wall below it, and this imperial palace wall, which was built by the divine materials of the Heavenly Court, unexpectedly failed to withstand the tufts of this one ordinary feathered arrow, and dense cracks spread rapidly on the surface of the wall.

　　Boom–!

　　Only a loud bang was heard as the wall under the feet of the Ant Queen shattered apart, and the Ant Queen that had lost its center of gravity violently stabbed out its scythe-like forelimbs, embedding itself into the gap at the edge of the wall to stabilize itself, hanging on the edge of the palace.

　　It turned its head to look in the direction the arrow had come from, its morose mouthparts opening as it roared angrily towards Lin Qiye and Jia Lan.

　　Whoosh-!

　　The second arrow came whistling!

　　The ant queen hanging on the edge of the wall couldn’t avoid the arrow as nimbly as it did last time this time, even though it twisted its body as hard as it could, it was still hit in the torso by the feathered arrow, the arrow tufts deeply missing into its hard armor.

　　Its huge body was shaken by the kinetic energy contained in the arrow, and its forelimbs shook out from the gap, and its entire body slid down from the edge of the palace uncontrollably, its forelimbs rubbing out blinding sparks on the vermillion wall.

　　It fell from the top of the palace!

　　Seeing this scene, the countless paper human Yin soldiers tumbling in the air surged downwards as if they had gone mad, their bizarre auras colluding together as they rushed towards the ant queen that had slipped off the edge of the palace.

　　Lin Qiye, who had already run to the entrance of the palace, witnessed the entire process of the Ant Queen’s body falling from before his eyes, followed by a large number of paper people swarming down from above, fortunately, the Ant Queen had already attracted all of their attention, and there were no paper people who had noticed the presence of the duo of Lin Qiye and Jia Lan.

　　Your arrow actually managed to shoot through the Imperial Palace? What kind of material is that? Lin Qiye looked at the crumbling wall at the edge of the palace and spoke in surprise.

　　Jia Lan smiled faintly and took out a feathered arrow from the quiver behind his back and pressed it against Lin Qiye’s hand.

　　Lin Qiye repeatedly probed this feather arrow with his spiritual power, no matter how he looked at it, there wasn’t the slightest abnormality in this feather arrow, it was made of even simpler materials, and even the workmanship was far less refined than the current bows and arrows.

　　With such an arrow, it can shoot through the Imperial Palace?

　　Is it your forbidden ruin? Lin Qiye returned the feathered arrow to Calan, and just as soon as he asked, he frowned and shook his head, It s not right ah …… At your time, there should be no forbidden ruins appearing.

　　Jia Lan opened his mouth as if he wanted to explain something, but he could not send a complete voice at all, so he could only silently close his mouth.

　　Lin Qiye turned his head to look at this black palace door in front of him, and he remembered that the Baili Chubby trio was the one who pushed open this door and walked into it.

　　He placed his palm on top of the palace door and pushed it open with force.
