System: After the fortune telling, my cultivation level skyrocketed.

An arrow with a triangular arrowhead was nocked onto a large silver bow, and the bowstring was immediately drawn to its full extent.

"die!"

jump--

The arrow left the bowstring, producing a dull thud as it shot out.

At the same time, a rapid whooshing sound arrived behind Jiang Ming in the blink of an eye.

The arrow tip was now radiating a violent surge of spiritual energy, and its speed was like a bolt of lightning as it shot towards the Firewing Bird's head in an instant.

"Get out of my way!"

Through this attack, the shrewd man realized that the other party did not intend to kill him, but to capture him alive; otherwise, the target of this sword strike would not have been his Firewing Bird.

puff!

The arrow, as swift as lightning, was stopped by Jiang Ming with his arm just as it was about to strike the Firewing Bird's head.

boom!

The arrow carried immense power. When it pierced Jiang Ming's arm, most of his arm exploded into dozens of pieces, scattering in all directions. The sprayed blood even stained the Firewing Bird's sorrowful red feathers.

"Master, Master, you go first, Huo'er will hold them off!"

Sensing its master's growing weakness, the Firewing Bird spoke in human language, its voice trembling with tears.

"Fire, don't worry about anything, just fly as hard as you can, leave the rest to your master." Jiang Ming had a hideous slash through his left shoulder, and a golden worm was lurking in the flesh of his right shoulder, frantically devouring Jiang Ming's Purple Mansion spiritual energy. Now, most of his arm had been blasted off by an arrow.

If it weren't for his strong obsession with the Jiang family's legacy, he would have fainted long ago.

"Waaah, Master, Master, Fire will definitely bring you back."

With a deathly pale face, Jiang Ming was too badly injured to see clearly, but his divine sense was constantly monitoring the attack from behind.

"Hmph, sacrificing a pawn to save the king, let's see how you block this arrow."

A sharp voice came from behind.

call-

Another sword strike, tearing through the sky, shot forth.

This time, Jiang Ming could only instantly activate his reversed Purple Mansion Dantian, and fortunately, he managed to block the killing arrow with his left shoulder.

"Owner!"

"Jiang Ming, since you're courting death, then I'll grant your wish!"

Clearly, the woman in green was quite angry that Jiang Ming had managed to block both of her arrows with his life.

The arrow appeared, and the bowstring was drawn to its fullest extent once again. This time, the woman was not aiming at the rapidly flapping firewing bird, but at Jiang Ming's back. If she shot it at this angle, not only would Jiang Ming die, but the firewing bird would also be instantly pierced through its flesh.

As such a chilling killing intent approached, Jiang Ming's dim eyes looked towards the sky in the direction of Zelin Sea. "Brother Chen Xuan, it seems that we will never have the chance to meet again."

"Master, go away!"

call out--

A fierce, ear-piercing sound of air being torn apart came instantly. The Firewing Bird shook its back, directly shoving the quietly waiting-to-die Jiang Ming out of the range of the arrows. It then spread its huge wings, completely exposing its body to the arrows.

Watching its master plummet towards the forest below, the Firewing Bird's eyes were filled with deep reluctance.

However, in order to give its master a chance to live, Huo'er's eyes became more and more determined, and it had no fear in the face of death.

As the arrows magnified in her eyes, she vaguely saw the scene of her first encounter with her master.

During that territorial battle, she was almost eaten by her natural enemy, but her master, Jiang Ning, saved her.

“Master, if there is an afterlife, I will still serve you.”

Wuwuwu——

The space was split in two by the rapidly approaching arrow, and even Huo'er could feel the unstoppable sharpness of the arrow.

Just as the arrow pierced through Huo'er's body.

"break!"

call--

A gust of wind, faster than an arrow, instantly approached from afar, disrupting the trajectory of the arrow as it hurtled towards Huo'er's body.

The changes happened too quickly.

The arrow veered off course and struck a towering tree with a thunderous roar before Huo'er could even react.
