Just Engaged, the Abandoned Comeback System Arrived

Chapter 105: Chapter 105: Black Pill

WHOOSH!

THWACK! THWACK! THWACK!

Lu Yuan fired a single arrow, instantly piercing through three or four enemy archers. The arrow’s momentum remained undiminished as it flew another dozen meters, penetrating three trees before heavily embedding itself more than halfway into a fourth.

WHOOSH! WHOOSH!

THWACK! THWACK! THWACK!

Two more arrows followed in quick succession, dealing just as much devastation. Even the gale kicked up in their wake was sharp enough to wound.

Lu Yuan fired a total of three arrows. Each one claimed three or four lives, bringing his total kill count to over ten archers. This sudden onslaught completely shattered the enemy’s formation and their morale. With such a Yama watching over the battlefield, who would dare expose themselves? They all scrambled to run or find a place to hide.

The enemy’s will had completely collapsed! Regardless, those at the Ninth Grade and below no longer dared to advance. The Eighth-Grade martial artists also stayed on high alert, fearing for their lives. They thought, ”This battle is impossible to fight!”

Xuu Xiao, Liuu Fang, Ye Yan, Chen Ye, and Chuu Fang were equally shocked. They thought, ”So powerful! Is this what a top-tier archer is capable of? Is this the advantage of having a master marksman covering our backs?” He effortlessly hunted down the enemies, broke their formation, and struck terror into their ranks. It felt far too smooth and easy!

But then they remembered the battle merits!

SWISH! SWISH!

The five of them rapidly lunged at the Eighth-Grade martial artists, attacking with all their might. They thought, ”We have to snatch those battle merits!”

WHOOSH!

THWACK!

Another Eighth-Grade martial artist was pierced through. He had been hiding behind a tree. But Lu Yuan was mobile; he could adjust his angles. Furthermore, he possessed Eagle Eye. His vision was so piercing that he could spot an ant from three to four hundred meters away.

WHOOSH!

THWACK!

An Eighth-Grade Middle Tier martial artist currently fighting Chen Ye was shot dead. That made seven.

”You...” Chen Ye glared in the direction the arrow had come from. He thought, ”This is too much!” He could have handled and killed this Eighth-Grade martial artist himself.

WHOOSH!

THWACK!

The eighth arrow! An Eighth-Grade High Tier martial artist battling Chuu Fang had his head blown apart by the shot.

Chuu Fang stood dumbfounded for a moment. Then, he raised his twin massive hammers and roared toward Lu Yuan’s position. ”Who told you to shoot this one?!”

Lu Yuan thought, ”Just two more...” He couldn’t care less about their complaints. He needed to finish his own mission first. Just two more!

BANG!

SPLUTTER!

The Second-in-Command was once again sent flying by Jii Lin’s punch, spewing a large mouthful of blood. His internal organs were ruptured; he had sustained severe injuries.

SLASH!

BANG!

The First-in-Command was also sent flying by Jii Lin’s saber strike, offering little resistance. The gap between them was simply too vast. Even in a two-on-one fight, they were nowhere near Jii Lin’s match. Meanwhile, Jii Lin appeared incredibly relaxed, not even fighting at full strength.

”Surrender without a fight, and I might just spare your lives,” Jii Lin stated.

The First-in-Command gasped heavily for breath. She glanced at the other battlefields and nearly spat out a mouthful of blood in sheer frustration. More than half of their Eighth-Grade martial artists had been slaughtered, and the remaining few had almost completely lost their will to fight, cowering like quails. Not to mention those at the Ninth Grade and below.

”Black Pill, come out!” the First-in-Command roared. Her voice vibrated, echoing for miles around.

”Black Pill!”

”Lord Black Pill!”

”Lord Black Pill!”

Many Water Bandits shouted, their faces filled with fanaticism.

The members of the Demon Suppression Bureau thought, ”What the hell is that?” However, they soon saw it.

SPLASH!

BOOM!

The surface of the river next to the stronghold suddenly exploded. A massive pitch-black pillar burst from the water, rapidly ascending and exceeding dozens of feet in the blink of an eye. Then...

WHOOSH!

The object completely emerged from the water and shot into the air. It was actually a snake! A colossal black snake that was over a hundred feet long, with a head the size of a carriage and a midsection as thick as a house. Its scales were the size of cobblestones, each one pitch-black and gleaming as if forged from dark gold. One didn’t even need to test it to know how terrifying its defenses were!

”A Black Water Profound Snake!” Jii Lin was astounded. He never expected to encounter such an Ancient Exotic Demon Beast here. With a size like that, its combat power was at least at the Seventh Grade Peak, perhaps even approaching the Sixth Grade.

”A Black Water Profound Snake!” Lu Yuan, Xuu Xiao, Liuu Fang, Ye Yan, Chen Ye, Chuu Fang, and even Mu Lingche were all deeply shocked.

The Black Water Profound Snake was an ancient exotic species with immense potential. It could reach the Fourth Grade, or even the Third Grade... No one had anticipated that such an exotic demon beast would appear in a place like this. The critical issue was that this beast possessed ferocious strength, and they were about to face it head-on. This was going to be incredibly perilous!

”Black Pill, kill him!” the First-in-Command shouted, pointing her finger directly at Jii Lin.

The Black Water Profound Snake took to the sky, yet it didn’t fall back down, as it had brought a massive cloud of water vapor up with it. The Black Water Profound Snake was born with the Water Manipulation Divine Technique. Upon receiving the First-in-Command’s orders, it immediately controlled the moisture, condensing it into ten-foot-long ice cones that aimed and shot toward Jii Lin.

SWISH SWISH SWISH!

THUD THUD THUD!

Jii Lin hurriedly dodged. Using the trees as cover, he circled halfway around the beast and charged straight at the First-in-Command. To catch the bandits, first catch the ringleader! This Black Water Profound Snake had clearly been tamed and controlled by the First-in-Command under some unknown circumstances. As long as he killed the First-in-Command, dealing with the Black Water Profound Snake would become relatively easier.

”Black Pill!” The First-in-Command darted toward the Black Water Profound Snake. She wasn’t stupid. She knew she was no match for Jii Lin and could only rely on the profound snake to defeat him.

SWOOSH!

Black Pill also rushed toward the First-in-Command, the two quickly converging.

”Heh heh, die!” The First-in-Command stood atop the Black Water Profound Snake’s head and commanded, ”Kill!”

HISS!

The Black Water Profound Snake unleashed a furious roar and lunged at Jii Lin, launching a devastating assault.

BOOM!

Massive waves surged from the river, combining with the surrounding water vapor to form countless ice cones that blasted toward Jii Lin. There were thousands of them, densely packed together.

Jii Lin’s scalp went numb. He thought, ”How is this merely approaching a Sixth-Grade Martial Artist? It has clearly reached, or even surpassed, the level of an ordinary Sixth-Grade Martial Artist!”

SWISH!

Jii Lin immediately turned and fled.

”Chase him!” The First-in-Command didn’t hesitate to order the Black Water Profound Snake to pursue. ”Second-in-Command, kill the rest of them.”

”Yes, First-in-Command!” The Second-in-Command clutched his chest as he stood up, a sinister smile creeping onto his face. He thought, ”I might not be able to beat a Seventh-Grade Squad Leader from the Demon Suppression Bureau, but taking care of a few Eighth-Grade lackeys is a piece of cake!”

”Kill! Kill!” The remaining Water Bandits grew excited and immediately launched a counterattack.

WHOOSH!

THWACK!

An Eighth-Grade Middle Tier martial artist was pierced by an arrow, rapidly losing his life force.

The Water Bandits froze in stunned silence as terror once again washed over them. They thought, ”This Yama is still here!”

”I’ll go deal with him!” The Second-in-Command flew into a furious rage. He had to kill this archer!

SWOOSH!

He rapidly lunged toward Lu Yuan’s position.

The Water Bandits sighed in relief and thought, ”Great, we’re saved!”

WHOOSH!

THWACK!

Another Eighth-Grade Initial Stage martial artist was shot dead by an arrow.

The Water Bandits went dead silent. If the archer didn’t die, they weren’t moving!

Lu Yuan narrowed his eyes; his mission was complete. He thought, ”That’s the tenth one!”

”You... die!” The Second-in-Command locked his gaze onto Lu Yuan and roared. In an instant, he crossed a distance of dozens of feet, appearing right in front of the large tree where Lu Yuan was stationed. Leaping into the air, he threw a devastating punch at Lu Yuan.

CLANG!

Lu Yuan drew his Wind Thunder Saber.

CRACKLE!

A massive burst of lightning appeared. Streaks of electricity danced like silver dragons before instantly compressing and coalescing into a dense sphere. Then...

”Thunderstorm!”
