Chapter 2597: Motive
Feng Meng was flabbergasted. He had neutralized Zu An’s arrow with three arrows earlier, so he thought he could catch Zu An off guard by firing many arrows at once. He hadn't thought Zu An could unravel his arrow rain with just a single arrow!
Was he toying with me earlier?
The arrow forcefully pinned him to the city wall, and the excruciating pain nearly caused him to pass out. He tried raising his hand to pluck out the arrow, but he couldn’t muster the strength. He finally understood how the Golden Crows felt when being shot down.
It was a terrifying feat, considering how Zu An hadn’t taken his time to build up energy for this arrow, and the earlier arrow rain had weakened the arrow’s might by at least half. If not for that, it would have torn Feng Meng apart.
Salamay could no longer be counted on in this situation. She had just clawed her face apart and was now glaring at Ji Xiaoxi with venomous eyes.
As for the Lord of Slaughter, he had finally struggled free of the purple lightning storm, but he was in terrible shape. His body was charred black, and his red flesh could be seen through his cracked skin. Smoke was rising from his body. He smelled so delicious that a few people gulped.
That further angered the Lord of Slaughter. How dare these ants think of eating me?!
But he didn’t dare to charge in recklessly anymore. With Feng Meng incapacitated, it would be suicidal for him to continue the fight.
Zu An paid no heed to the Lord of Slaughter; his eyes were focused on the city. Seeing no one was coming out, he shot another arrow at Feng Meng. This is the culprit who caused the Mermaid Queen to ascend to the Frost Palace. I’ll exact vengeance for her.
