Elder Jiang's left hand kept fumbling, trying to find healing medicine to stop his injury. His right hand, however, gripped his sword tightly, not daring to relax.
In the battle just now, Elder Jiang also fought with his life on the line to temporarily break away from the encirclement, seizing a commanding position.
However, the terrain advantage did not guarantee anything. At most, it only increased the difficulty of the opponent's attack, and increased the risk of the opponent's attack.
As for his own situation, it did not improve much.
Especially with his current bleeding momentum, wanting to shake off the three people's pursuit could be said to have almost no chance of success.
"This surnamed Jiang is quite clever. Seizing this position is the only slight advantage he can fight for now. "Qin Yi, who was in the dark, saw the opponent's choice and secretly praised.
But this way, Qin Yi was a little embarrassed. Because the position where he hid was also in this area.
Based on the momentum of the battle, Qin Yi had a premonition that he would very likely be affected.
"I clearly don't want to get involved, is this the rhythm of dragging me in?" Qin Yi was a little speechless. At this moment, he had already discovered that he probably had no choice but to get involved.
Because after the three people below discovered that the advantageous position was occupied by Elder Jiang, they recognized the risk of attacking forcefully, and actually changed their fighting style.
One person took out a bow and arrow, one took out a hidden weapon, and the last person directly took out an offensive amulet.
The place where Qin Yi hid was not very far from that Elder Jiang. Once the opponent's hidden weapons and arrows continuously attacked this direction, Qin Yi would definitely be affected.
Seeing the situation, that Elder Jiang also secretly scolded these three people for being shameless.
Hidden weapon attacks were currently Elder Jiang's greatest weakness. His defensive amulet could not guarantee that these hidden weapon attacks could be completely blocked.
Even if he could completely block them, under the cover of hidden weapons, these three people would definitely make him distracted and powerless, unable to attend to one thing and lose sight of another.
Damn it!
Those three people obviously did not intend to give him too much time to think, using almost the fastest speed, arrows and hidden weapons, as well as offensive sword pellets flew all over the sky, unceremoniously greeting Elder Jiang.
Hidden weapon attacks were as numerous as locusts. This was the most troublesome form of attack for most martial artists.
Although Elder Jiang had the support of a powerful defensive amulet, he still couldn't withstand this kind of attack coverage that had almost no blind spots.
Just as he was grumbling incessantly in his heart and struggling to defend himself, the three of them exchanged glances and, as if they had a tacit understanding, moved almost at the same time. They turned into three gusts of wind and charged toward him from three different directions.
The concealed weapon would open the way in front while the main body would follow behind. This kind of attack pattern might not be very effective against the same number of opponents.
But against an injured opponent, it was useless no matter how useful it was.
Elder Jiang sighed, knowing that he would not be able to escape death today. Death was not something to be afraid of. From the moment he made his choice, he had already realized it.
However, Elder Jiang's biggest regret was that he couldn't take away the legacy of Yuluo Country and leave behind a legacy for Yuluo Country's Yin-Yang Academy.
He shouldered the heavy responsibility of Jade Luo Academy's inheritance.
From the looks of it now, the inheritance was going to fall into the hands of these traitors.
Thinking of this, Elder Jiang's heart turned cold and all his hopes turned to dust.
The three of them obviously felt that victory was in their grasp. Like three large birds gliding down, the weapons in their hands swung mercilessly toward Elder Jiang.
At this moment, the short sound of a bowstring came from the void.
At the same time, the rapid sound of something breaking through the air rang in the ears of these people.
Ah, ah!
Two screams rang out. Among the three people, the momentum of their bodies stopped abruptly. The weapons in their hands had already fallen to the ground, and their hands were clutching their necks tightly.
An arrow had pierced through the front and back of their necks.
With two thuds, the two of them fell to the ground. Their bodies had already begun to twitch in despair. Their expressions had not changed from the smug look they had a moment ago.
The remaining squint-eyed old man also reacted quickly. The weapon in his hand subconsciously blocked, and only then did he deflect a fatal arrow.
Even so, his blocking arm was incomparably sore and numb. Unable to continue, he dodged and fell to the side.
As he fell, he landed right in front of his companion who had been shot by the arrow. However, he saw that his companion's eyes were wide open. His pupils had already begun to slacken, and he had died with a face full of grievances.
His companion on the other side was exactly the same. The way he died, his expression, and even his movements were synchronized. He had already become a corpse.
His companion, who was still alive and kicking a moment ago, had become two corpses in the blink of an eye. This caused the squint-eyed old man, who was experienced and knowledgeable, to feel a chill run down his spine. His Taoist Heart trembled.
This was clearly not Elder Jiang's doing. Elder Jiang could not even take care of himself earlier, and was practically in a state of waiting for death.
"Who? Who shot the arrow secretly? "The squint-eyed old man asked hoarsely.
However, when this question came out, it was not as imposing as he had imagined it to be. There was even a slight tremble in his voice, undoubtedly betraying his current panic.
Even Elder Jiang was extremely surprised. He had already lost all hope earlier, and was in a state of waiting for death.
He had never thought that in the instant he closed his eyes and waited for death, so many things would actually happen. In the blink of an eye, the situation had been completely turned around.
His mood was the same as that of the squint-eyed old man. It was a rollercoaster ride.
The person who shot the arrow was, of course, Qin Yi. His three consecutive arrows were supposed to be aimed at the vital parts of the three people. In the end, only two of them were hit.
The squint-eyed old man's cultivation was indeed much higher than his companions, and he actually managed to dodge the arrows.
However, there was only a rank 8 Dao foundation cultivator left, and he was no longer a threat. Even if Elder Jiang was injured, he had the capital to protect himself.
The squint-eyed old man, on the other hand, was already panicking. He called out weakly a few times, and seeing that no one answered him, he began to look left and right. As long as the situation was slightly off, he would definitely escape immediately.
"You with the surname Jiang, you actually said that we colluded with foreign enemies. It seems like you have colluded with foreign enemies. "The squint-eyed old man splashed a basin of dirty water on Elder Jiang.
At that moment, Elder Jiang also had a confused look on his face. He had not figured out who the person who shot the arrow was, nor was he sure if the person who shot the arrow was a friend or foe.
At that moment, he did not know how to respond to the squint-eyed old man.
Seeing that Elder Jiang was not saying a word, the squint-eyed old man was even more confused. At that moment, he continuously beat the drums of retreat in his heart.
He swept his gaze forward again. "Sir, why are you acting so sneakily? Are you ashamed to show your face? How dare you behave atrociously in Jade Luo Nation and kill an elder of Jade Luo Academy. Don't tell me you don't even have the guts to show your face? "
