Abandoning literature for martial arts, starting by unleashing the beauty's bow.

Liu Laosan narrowed his eyes slightly, "None of your business!"

The dark-faced man retorted, "So what if I did it? You're about to meet your maker, and you want to stand up for justice?"

The short, stout man laughed loudly, "Kill you, and the case will be closed. The laws of Daqing will no longer apply to us."

Whether it's you or that family, even as ghosts, they can only stare helplessly.

Lu Fengnian replied calmly, "The laws of Daqing don't apply to you, but my arrows do."

After saying that, he slung his longbow over his shoulder, took his quiver, and strode quickly toward one side of the square.

"A mere boiled chicken, yet it dares to spout such nonsense!"

The dark-faced man's eyes flashed with a fierce light. "Brothers, don't kill him right away. Let me give him a couple more stabs."

The short, stout man chimed in, "Count me in! I'm going to knock this kid's teeth out one by one before he dies!"

…………

Hearing the shouts of Liu Laosan and his group, Lu Fengnian remained expressionless and walked slowly.

On one side of the square, Lei Hu shouted, "Lu Fengnian, don't just grab a bow, put on some leather armor too!"

Lu Fengnian turned around and nodded slightly to Lei Hu, "Thank you for your concern, Commander Lei. One bow is enough."

"Ignorant and arrogant!"

"Overestimating yourself!"

…………

Liu Laosan and the others laughed wildly.

Before Lei Hu could speak, Qin Sanming shouted, "Both sides, hurry to either end of the square! The fight is about to begin!"

Liu Laosan and his five companions quickly ran to one end of the square and formed a formation.

The dark-faced man and the short, stout man, each holding a shield and a knife, stood at the front. Two others followed behind them, each carrying a bow. Liu Laosan stood at the very back of the group, crouching slightly, holding a large, ghost-headed knife in his hand.

Lu Fengnian stood quietly at the other end of the square, holding a bow in his left hand, with a quiver of arrows on his back, containing twenty-six iron arrows.

Seeing that both sides were ready, Qin Sanming shouted, "Begin!"

As soon as he finished speaking...

The two archers on Liu Laosan's side immediately drew their bows and fired arrows at Lu Fengnian.

Lu Fengnian did not draw his bow. Instead, he stared intently at the two arrows that were flying through the wind. After judging their landing point, he quickly darted to the side.

Two soft puffs!

Two iron arrows were driven into the spot where Lu Fengnian had just stood, deeply embedded in the ground of the square.

The two men were skilled archers; even at a distance of nearly sixty zhang, their aim remained impeccable. However, Lu Fengnian's dodging speed was fast enough to easily evade their attacks.

Liu Laosan and his four companions frowned, their expressions becoming noticeably serious.

Faced with the powerful shot of two arrows, Lu Fengnian was able to dodge them with ease, which made them realize that Lu Fengnian was no ordinary person.

On one side of the square, Zhao Rulong, Lei Hu, and Cao Meng all had their eyes light up.

Zhao Rulong nodded approvingly, "It's remarkable that a village hunter could react so well to a powerful arrow."

Lei Hu added, "I've said it before, Lu Fengnian is no ordinary kid, he has boundless potential."

Qin Sanming frowned first, then sneered, "You were just lucky to dodge two arrows. The fight has only just begun."

What use is potential if you die in the square?

At this moment, the two archers, seeing that Lu Fengnian had dodged the shot, were surprised and their faces showed anger. They drew their bows and fired arrows again.

Lu Fengnian made the same move as before, easily dodging the two arrows, and still did not retaliate.

Although he was confident in his own abilities, he knew that knowing oneself is just as important as knowing one's enemy. Before launching a counterattack, he needed to understand the strength of the two archers.

Lu Fengnian easily dodged the two archers' second shot, clearly losing face, and fired a third arrow.

However, the result was still the same.

Just as they were preparing to fire for the fourth time, Liu Laosan shouted, "Lu Fengnian is quite skilled. Your bows won't do anything to him. Don't waste your arrows."

"You two use your bows and arrows to hold him off, we'll get close!"

Then, the two swordsmen and shieldmen strode forward, followed closely by the two archers, with Liu Laosan bringing up the rear. They formed a formation and rushed towards Lu Fengnian.

Lu Fengnian finally took an iron arrow out of the quiver.

Just then, the two archers fired two more arrows in an attempt to stop Lu Fengnian from drawing his bow.

Lu Fengnian anticipated the landing point, dodged the two arrows with a leap, and after landing, quickly drew the bowstring taut and shot the arrow instantly, almost without aiming.

With a whoosh, the iron arrow flew out, its target aimed directly at Liu Laosan, who was at the back.

However, the two swordsmen in front reacted very quickly, retreating immediately to block Liu Laosan's path.

Among them, the dark-faced man was agile. As the arrow approached, he quickly raised his arm, and his shield blocked the arrow's path.

Thud!

The iron arrow was embedded in the black-faced man's shield.

The shield was made of willow wood wrapped in cowhide. It was extremely tough, soft, and impact-resistant, making it less prone to cracking when hit by arrows, and it was also lightweight.

However, the power of Lu Fengnian's arrow exceeded the dark-faced man's expectations.

The iron arrow, carrying immense force, pierced through the willow shield, and the sharp sword tip, passing through the shield, nearly pierced his arm.

The dark-faced man looked terrified, and fine beads of sweat seeped from his forehead.

He was a seasoned veteran, his shield having blocked countless arrows, but Lu Fengnian's arrow was far more powerful than any of his previous enemies.

"Boss, this kid's a bit tricky. His arrows are strange; their power is uncanny!"

The dark-faced man quickly composed himself and spoke up hastily.

Liu Laosan knew the dark-faced man's skills all too well. Hearing his words, his heart sank, and he immediately said to the two archers:

"You two should not fire your arrows at the same time, but take turns, so as not to give Lu Fengnian a chance to fire."

We sped forward; once we got close enough to him, that kid was dead!

Upon receiving the order, the two archers immediately made adjustments. They held their bows, the strings were fully drawn, but they did not rush to fire.

Following behind the two swordsmen and shieldmen, they quickly approached Lu Fengnian, ready to stop him from drawing his bow at any moment.

However, to their surprise, Lu Fengnian stopped after shooting the first arrow and did not shoot a second one.

Despite some confusion, Liu Laosan did not hesitate for a moment and continued to lead his four subordinates to close the distance with Lu Fengnian.

In his view, once he got close, no matter how good Lu Fengnian's archery skills were, he would be like a fish on a chopping board, completely at his mercy.

"What is Lu Fengnian doing? Why isn't he shooting anymore?" Lei Hu frowned.

Zhao Rulong also looked puzzled.

Qin Sanming chuckled softly, "Even if he keeps shooting, what can he do? Liu Laosan's squad has fought tough battles and their teamwork is excellent."

Lu Fengnian's arrows were completely ineffective against them.

At this moment, Cao Meng, who had been silent until now, spoke up, "At this distance, if Lu Fengnian were to unleash a barrage of arrows, Liu Laosan and the others would definitely not be able to withstand it."

"By moving closer, the arrows can be made more powerful, thus breaking through the shield's defense."
