Chapter 578: Determining Arrow

Chapter 578: Determining Arrow

The battle for the throne was never easy; it was a path filled with blood and corpses.

Although the princes and the princesses weren’t allowed to assassinate each other, what about assassinating the other’s powerful retinue? That was perfectly fine! Only the demons who could live through that were qualified to support the future Demon King!

Assassination! Lucifer Serage had to admit that the Eighth Prince was loaded in this department of assassination! “Although I heard that Jiliu Feijing is good at archery, he doesn’t stand much of a chance…” Lucifer Serage signed and thought, “The Demon-Eye Bloodline is the ruler in this area!”

“Is there still a reason to compete on this?” All the leaders of the demon clans shook their heads with a bitter smile on their faces.

“I give up!”

The participant from the Crown Prince’s crew raised his bow and surrendered.

Demon King Lucifer looked at Lucifer Serage who signaled his subordinate to surrender and smiled. This decision was clever; if the competition continued, the Eighth Prince would only get more recognition and Jinleng Moyan would only get more famous.

Since the retinue of the Crown Prince gave up, more and more contestants started to surrender. Soon, only Jinleng Moyan and Qian Jin were the only two standing on the stage.

Surrender? Qian Jin looked at the human targets and thought, “If I can save their lives if I surrender, I would. But…”

He looked at Jinleng Moyan and knew that this demon was ready to kill; even if Qian Jin surrendered, this demon was going to say that he wanted to showcase his archery skill and still kill the human warriors.

That was right! As an archer himself, Qian Jin saw the murderous intent in Jinleng Moyan’s eyes.

“Master Feijing, aren’t you going to surrender?” Jinleng Moyan smiled and asked, “I heard that Master Feijing is a great archer. Do you want to compete?”

Qian Jin nodded and didn’t say anything. Then, he lightly caressed the bowstrings on his bow, and a series of vibrations sounded.

As soon as Jinleng Moyan heard that vibration, his eyes squinted and focused onto the bow in Qian Jin’s hand.

Master-level archers weren’t just good at shooting; they were great at identifying bows as well.

Jinleng Moyan stared at Qian Jin’s bow and thought, “Those vibrations contain a faint sensation of the stars!”

[Rhyme of the Stars]! It was the bow that was on the level of Saint Item kept in the Demon-Eye Bloodline Family.

Jinleng Moyan only got to hear the vibrations of the bowstring on that bow once, but he was taken by it. Any archer would be taken by those sounds; they were like the most divine music.

After hearing the sounds produced by Qian Jin’s bowstring, Jinleng Moyan knew that his own bow was inferior.

“Nice bow,” Jinleng Moyan said to Qian Jin. “It is a rare piece of art! Are you willing to sell it? If you give a price, I will make sure that you are satisfied. Even if you want me to surrender and give up right now, I will do it!”

Eighth Prince Lucifer Stars who was sitting on the viewing platform heard this and his expression changed. However, a gloating smile appeared on Lucifer Serage’s face.

Sitting not too far away from the Demon King, Jinleng Arrow, the leader of the Demon-Eye Bloodline Family had a warm smile on his face.

“That bow!” Jinleng Arrow thought back to the vibration noises made by Qian Jin’s bowstring and thought, “It is a great bow! It sounded similar to [Rhyme of the Stars]! A bow is like the second life of an archer!”

“Do I need you to give up now?” Qian Jin laughed. Even if he won, he would have to kill those human warriors to avoid the suspicion.

“Why? Do you want to compete with me?” a trouble expression appeared on Jinleng Moyan’s face. He had heard the name of Jiliu Feijing before, but he didn’t pay much attention to this newly famous demon as he believed that his own bow was great enough.

However, after seeing Qian Jin’s bow, he knew he was wrong. Although winning was great, it wasn’t worthy of offending this Forge Grandmaster.

Jinleng Moyan wanted to get on the good side of Qian Jin; he knew that this demon wouldn’t help him to forge a better bow if he offended him. It was heard that this Forge Grandmaster was really arrogant and strange.

“Let’s compete,” Qian Jin looked up at the Demon King and said, “Since His Majesty is here, we shouldn’t let he waste his time.”

Lucifer smiled and nodded, but Lucifer Stars’ expression wasn’t pretty. “How can Jinleng Moyan use all of his strength now? He is probably going to pretend and lose on purpose to please this Jiliu Feijing!” he thought.

“Since this is the case, let’s start,” Jinleng Moyan sighed; he was thinking of losing on purpose and paying this Forge Grandmaster a visit later.

“You want this bow of mine?” Qian Jin shook his bow and asked.

“No.” Jinleng Moyan looked at that bow and frowned as he said, “I want Master Feijing to forge a new bow for me; a bow that only has one bowstring! I hope it could be similar to [Rhyme of the Stars]…”

“[Rhyme of the Stars]?” Qian Jin replied, “That Saint Item in your family? I heard of it before… If I get to see it myself, I might get more inspirations from it.”

“The Demon-Eye Bloodline Family is pleased to have Master Feijing over to check out [Rhyme of the Stars]!” Jinleng Arrow who was sitting on the viewing platform quickly stood up and invited Qian Jin with excitement. As a smart demon, he wasn’t going to let this opportunity get away.

Box Lee who was sitting close to Jinleng Arrow immediately thought, “Damn it! Why didn’t we think of inviting Master Feijing to see our Saint Item? Although he might not be able to forge a Saint Item, he could at least make a powerful replica.”

“[Rhyme of the Stars]?” Qian Jin murmured.

All the demons in the building were nervous; they wanted to see if this Forge Grandmaster was going to accept the invitation. If he did, all of these leaders would invite him too; each of the powerful Bloodline Families all had Saint Items!

“Interesting,” Qian Jin nodded and said, “My master told me that I should check out more Saint Items. It would help me to better my abilities and techniques.”

“Then the Demon-Eye Bloodline Family will be waiting for you…” before Jinleng Arrow could finish talking, another leader of a Bloodline Family stood up and started to give Qian Jin invitations. For a moment, these high-level demons forgot about the competition.

“Cough…” Demon King Lucifer coughed intentionally, and those leaders finally realized where they were and calmed down. They all sat back down, but they were smiling at Qian Jin friendly.

“I have a few Saint Items as well…” Demon King Lucifer said slowly, “If Master Feijing is interested, you could come and visit.”

“For sure!” Qian Jin bowed as he replied. Out of all the Saint Items, he wanted to check out the Saint Items in the Lucifer Family the most. He had a Saint Item that belonged to the Lucifer Family in his Warrior Dimension.

He didn’t give it to Cech Flet for three reasons. First, Lucifer Lucy was with them and giving Cech Flet that armor would be like rubbing it on her face; second, they were now in the Demon Territory and it might cause trouble; third, Qian Jin wasn’t sure if Cech Flet’s life energy was going to be sucked away like that what happened to that Blood Bat Bloodline Warrior in the Ancient Desert Sea.

Since he couldn’t steal those Saint Items, he could at least study them and learn how they were made. Afterward, he could recreate those items in the Warrior Weapon Grade and create a whole set of items for Cech Flet to use.

“How powerful could Cech Flet be if he got the set?” Qian Jin felt like the mixed-blood demon could battle with Saint Warriors even if he wasn’t a Saint Warrior himself if that happened.

With all the stares around him, Demon King Lucifer laughed and said, “I’m also a demon, so I have the normal emotions as well. After seeing how great Master Feijing is, I have to give the invitation, don’t I?”

Zence Matten put his thumbs up in secret. “This Demon King knows when he should be hard and when he should be friendly. This is a real emperor! My trip here is worthwhile!” he thought.

“Jinleng Moyan, let’s start!” Qian Jin said as he pulled out an arrow and placed it on two bowstrings as he pulled it back. The creaking noises made by the bowstrings made all the demons excited.

“Why place the arrow on two bowstrings if placing it only on one bowstring is more effective and powerful?” Jinleng Moyan thought.

“Too bad that I’m not great enough to use only one bowstring,” Qian Jin said with an earnest bitter smile on his face, and Jinleng Moyan couldn’t understand what he just said.

At this moment, Demon King Lucifer suddenly said, “Moyan, what are you waiting for?”

Jinleng Moyan instantly pulled out the arrow and placed it onto his bow; in the meantime, his Bloodline Battle Form was activated. As the spirals inside his eyes started to turn rapidly, he looked at Qian Jin with his peripheral vision and was thinking of a way to lose to this Forge Grandmaster seamlessly.

“You damn demons! Come at me and shot me! I will become a warrior again in my next life and chop your heads off!”

“You bastards! Come on! I’m not scared!”

“Yeah! I have killed enough demons in my lifetime!”

As the human warriors were untied, they shouted and charged at Qian Jin and Jinleng Moyan.

“Begin!” Demon King Lucifer commanded, and Jinleng Moyan didn’t dare to delay this any longer. He let go of that arrow, and that arrow shot forward as it spun in the air rapidly.

Boom! Qian Jin’s arrow was shot out right after Jinleng Moyan’s. However, Qian Jin’s arrow chased after Jinleng Moyan’s arrow and collided with it even though his arrow was shot out later.

The arrows were chipped, and those tiny chips flew in all directions like many wriggly worms.
