Ye Li smiled and said, "You just have to watch carefully. Shoot! "
Whoosh —
The black arrows shot toward the West-Hill military camp after they left the bowstring. The Xiling Army was also made up of elites. As soon as they heard the sound of arrows piercing through the air, they immediately reacted. "Enemy attack!"
In a moment, the entire army was on alert. However, no matter how fast the West-Hill soldiers reacted, they were not as fast as the arrows that had already left the bowstring. Soon, they realized that the black arrows were not aimed at them, but at the open ground or the haystack tents. While everyone was still confused, Lei Zhenting, who had been fighting for a long time, instinctively felt a trace of danger. He shouted, "Retreat!"
"Boom!" Before his voice died away, there was an earth-shattering explosion, followed by a series of loud explosions and a strong smell of gunpowder in the military camp that had not yet been completely set up. At the same time, there were the screams of countless soldiers.
The continuous explosion lasted for almost half an hour before it gradually subsided. Because of the thick smoke caused by the explosion, Lei Zhenting stood up with a dusty face. What he saw was countless broken limbs in front of him. It was a mess. Many soldiers were killed by the explosion. The unlucky ones were even blown apart. But more people were seriously injured by the explosion. They were missing limbs and lying on the ground in pain. The soldiers who were lucky enough not to be injured were also frightened. Some timid ones even fell to the ground and cried for their parents.
It was not that the West-Hill soldiers were too calm, but that no one had ever seen such a terrifying power. If someone had carefully paid attention to the details of the battle when the Mohist army took over the Chu capital, they might have been prepared. But in that battle, the Mohist army used very little explosives and did not cause too many casualties. And after that, the news was tightly sealed. Even the Mohist army's own soldiers did not know much, let alone the West-Hill people.
Everyone on the cliff stared at the scene in front of them, stunned. After a long while, Feng Zhiyao squeezed out a sentence from his throat. "So powerful …" Feng Zhiyao had actually seen these things in the Chu capital, but Feng Zhiyao did not admire them very much. Because that thing was very troublesome to transport, and its size was not small. More importantly, its lethality wasn't that special. But this time, the feeling it gave him was enough to shock him.
Ye Li looked at the miserable situation at the foot of the mountain and lowered her eyes in silence.
"Ye Li?!" At the foot of the mountain, Lei Zhenting couldn't help but roar when he saw the tragic scene in front of him. His gaze shot towards the people on the cliff like lightning, accurately locating Ye Li's position. Lei Zhenting was infuriated. In the explosion just now, the Xiling army had lost more than tens of thousands of soldiers. However, this was nothing to Lei Zhenting, who currently had over 700,000 soldiers. However, the Mohist army had caused such great damage to the West-Hill without losing a single soldier. For the Xiling Army, the consequences and impact were definitely not as simple as losing tens of thousands of soldiers and horses.
Lei Zhenting jumped up and pounced towards Ye Li and the others. While in the air, Lei Zhenting swung his sword, sending out a sharp sword aura towards Ye Li.
Han Mingyue and Feng Zhiyao moved forward at the same time, blocking the sword aura. At the same time, over a hundred Black Cloud Cavalry aimed their bows at Lei Zhenting and fired. Lei Zhenting was in the air and had nowhere to borrow strength. If he didn't want to become a porcupine, he could only give up on attacking Ye Li and retreat.
However, in his fury, Lei Zhenting swung his sword and actually knocked down over a hundred arrows at the same time. His sword didn't slow down at all as it swept towards Ye Li again.
After missing, the Black Cloud Cavalry didn't panic and continued to shoot.
Feng Zhiyao, Qin Feng, Han Mingyue and the others all laid down in front of Ye Li, in case the Black Cloud Cavalry couldn't stop Lei Zhenting and they had to protect Ye Li. The only one who couldn't interfere was Han Mingxi. He stood by Ye Li's side and saw Ye Li take out an extremely strange object from her sleeve and fiddle with it a few times. Then, he saw Ye Li raise that object forward and say in a low voice, "Feng San, move aside."
Feng Zhiyao who was standing in front of Ye Li was stunned and reflexively moved to the side. There was a loud bang. Feng Zhiyao only felt a gust of wind shoot past him. Even though Lei Zhenting who was originally incomparably ferocious in the air stopped and then slowly fell down. Feng Zhiyao clearly saw a streak of blood blossom on Lei Zhenting's shoulder, but he didn't see the arrow that shot him. Of course, Feng Zhiyao also dared to guarantee that not a single arrow hit Lei Zhenting.
Everyone turned around to look at the white clothed girl behind them in shock. They saw that Ye Li was still holding that object. That object looked extremely strange and there was a small black hole. However, even people like Feng Zhiyao and Han Mingxi who were experienced and knowledgeable couldn't tell what kind of hidden weapon it was. They only felt that even though this object didn't look good, when Ye Li held it in her hand, it seemed to have a different kind of elegant killing intent.
More importantly, it was this unremarkable object that injured Western Tomb's Jhennam Of Gojoseon, one of the four great experts in the world, Lei Zhenting.
"This … What is this?"
Ye Li frowned and helplessly sighed. Looking at the pistol in her hand, she sighed and said, "I actually missed." Unfortunately, this was the best pistol that could be made at the moment, and it couldn't be mass produced. This was a single shot pistol, and its effective range was only 150 meters. Lei Zhenting's qinggong was too good, and she didn't even have the chance to use a rifle. However, compared to the last time she saw it, at least its lethality and stability had improved significantly. It was no longer just a toy that looked funny.
"What would have happened if you hadn't missed?" In Han Mingxi's view, the fact that over a hundred Black Cloud Cavalry couldn't hit Lei Zhenting and were shot down by Ye Li was already an incredible result.
Ye Li smiled and said, "I originally thought that I would be able to hit his head 100%."
"You want to shoot Lei Zhenting's head through?!" Everyone was shocked.
Ye Li shook her head and said, "This gun's penetrative power isn't strong. It can't pierce through from such a distance."
It was also terrifying that it couldn't pierce through. Imagine an expert like Lei Zhenting with a hole in the middle of his head. Everyone's gaze towards Ye Li could already be described as horrified. No, it should be said that they were looking at the object in Ye Li's hand. This was definitely the best hidden weapon in the world.
