582: Chapter 582 Starry Eyes, Xiao Yu'er Advances
Meanwhile, Miss Xiao Yuer let out a long sigh of relief; the arrow she had fired had not hit any vital points.
Although it pierced through the chest, it was not fatal.
"Yuer, you did that on purpose, didn't you!" The woman looked at Miss Xiao Yuer with a cold gaze.
"Teacher, stop forcing me!" Miss Xiao Yuer's expression was sorrowful, her heart filled with extreme reluctance.
Years ago, when they first met, Miss Xiao Yuer was already a renowned Dou Zong powerhouse, hunting a Rank 6 Magical Beast, the Golden Snake, to seize the Golden Crystal Source.
Meanwhile, Hun Tiandi was merely a struggling little Dou Ling, fighting desperately at the bottom.
Miss Xiao Yuer was a high-and-mighty Dou Zong, but later, due to the Golden Snake King's poison, the two had a one-night stand, becoming entangled with each other.
After helping him successfully obtain the Golden Crystal Source, Miss Xiao Yuer left behind a cultivation technique scroll and a Dou Technique scroll.
She thought their paths would never cross again.
Karma brought them together once more, but now they had become enemies.
Hun Tiandi had killed the Young Pavilion Master of the Starfall Pavilion as well as the heir Xiao Tian, provoking the gargantuan Xiao Family.
He was forced to withdraw from the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion and was hunted down all the way.
Mo Xinyue had raised Miss Xiao Yuer since childhood; how could she not know what was on her mind?
"Alas, Yuer, haven't you noticed? Hun Tiandi's cultivation is still at the Dou Zong level, yet he already has the potential to challenge a Dou Zun. His growth is too fast!"
"It's just like him from back then. If you don't strike now, there will be no chance in the future!" Mo Xinyue reminded her.
"Teacher, if there's no chance, then so be it!" Miss Xiao Yuer said with a bitter face.
"Bastard! How did you swear back then? What did you say before practicing the Myriad Heavens Starry Decree?" The woman's eyes widened, bursting with a cold light.
"This disciple swore never to be hindered by emotions in this life. If I harden my heart to kill the person I love, I shall fall into the Nether Hell forever!" Miss Xiao Yuer bit her red lip, tears streaming down.
"As long as you remember!" the woman said in a heavy voice.
"Teacher, but this disciple really cannot do it!" Miss Xiao Yuer said sorrowfully.
"Even if you can't, you must. We cannot allow Hun Tiandi to keep growing; he must die. From now on, I will follow you until Hun Tiandi is killed!"
"Next time, aim for the vitals and kill him in one shot. If you fail, you will have to endure torture!" the woman said.
"Teacher!" Miss Xiao Yuer had a face full of pain.
"As soon as he appears, shoot him dead with this arrow!" Mo Xinyue once again took out a Qi-Breaking Arrow.
It was exactly the same!
"He won't come out again!" Miss Xiao Yuer argued for Hun Tiandi.
"Then we will chase him out of the Starfall Pavilion and kill him regardless!" the woman's voice was extremely cold.
In the distance.
"Your Majesty, are you alright?" Yun Xiao flickered and shielded him. Hun Tiandi gave a bitter smile. A Qi-Breaking Arrow?
A hint of relief from surviving a disaster appeared on his face. The people of the Starfall Pavilion were truly something, resorting to hidden arrows.
He snapped the Qi-Breaking Arrow, and the Dou Qi within his body circulated to repair the injury. He flipped his hand, took out a pill, and swallowed it; the wound began to heal rapidly.
The bloodstains on his green robe, however, had dyed a large area red.
"It's fine, I can recover after some rest. Starfall Pavilion?"
"Since they used a sneak attack and underhanded methods, then I shall show no mercy!" Hun Tiandi said with extreme indifference.
Originally, he only planned to rescue Qing Yue, but now it seemed he should be more thorough.
Eradicate!
"It's good that you're alright!" Yun Xiao secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Hun Tiandi turned and ordered, "Yun Xiao, you and Wang Ku should not act yet. There must be a Dou Sheng in the Starfall Pavilion, and the experts from the Heavenly Mansion Alliance behind them have not appeared yet. Wait for my command!"
"Yes!" Yun Xiao accepted the order.
Hun Tiandi paid no attention to his blood-stained robe, circulating his Dou Qi to recover from his injuries. The battle between the powerhouses continued.
It was very bloody.
"Pavilion Master You Quan, did you arrange for someone to fire arrows from the shadows?" Mu Qingluan asked.
"No!" Pavilion Master You Quan was also bewildered. Who exactly was the person carrying out the sneak attack?
Still, if they could shoot Hun Tiandi dead, she didn't care who it was.
Hun Tiandi was determined to draw out the person using hidden arrows. As if having made up his mind, his figure moved, and he soared into the high sky.
Seeing Hun Tiandi rush out, Yun Xiao frowned slightly. "What is Your Majesty doing? Someone outside wants to kill you, so why rush out?"
"He's out! Quick, shoot him!" Miss Xiao Yuer's teacher said excitedly.
Seeing Hun Tiandi fly out, Miss Xiao Yuer's eyes also widened. Why did he have to come out?
Immediately, she grabbed Miss Xiao Yuer's hand, pulled back the Silver Moon Bow, and aimed at Hun Tiandi.
The moment he appeared in mid-air.
Swish!
The woman shouted, and Miss Xiao Yuer's tears burst forth as the Qi-Breaking Arrow shot out with a whistle.
This arrow was faster than before, seemingly containing spatial energy. There was no time to dodge as he circulated his Dou Qi into protective Qi; the arrow flew straight toward the space between his eyebrows.
Boom!
With a thought, he opened the Nether Small World, and the arrow vanished. Hun Tiandi's entire body plummeted toward the dark ground.
An arrow to the brow—the seat of soul power. Miss Xiao Yuer was stunned, her eyes filled with despair.
"Good! Yuer, you've finally killed him. The Soul-Extinguishing Arrow destroys the soul in one shot, especially when hitting the brow. He is certainly dead!"
"Even a Dou Zun would definitely have their soul dissipated and die for sure!" the woman exclaimed.
"Soul-Extinguishing Arrow? What did you say? Impossible..." A surge of hostility rose in Miss Xiao Yuer's eyes as she looked at the woman.
A Soul-Extinguishing Arrow... if so, Hun Tiandi was dead for sure!
Miss Xiao Yuer's beautiful eyes were filled with resentment, but the woman wasn't angry at all, as long as Miss Xiao Yuer could attain the path of a Dou Di.
Even if she was hated, it didn't matter!
"With the Soul-Extinguishing Arrow, it was you who shot Hun Tiandi dead. He died by your hand!" The woman wore a satisfied smile.
"It was me?" Miss Xiao Yuer said blankly, two lines of bloody tears flowing from her eyes as a mysterious aura rose from her body.
Suddenly, Miss Xiao Yuer's pupils constricted to the extreme before abruptly expanding. Her pitch-black pupils transformed into pure silver in an instant, shining with brilliant starlight.
Star Pupils?
Ah...
Miss Xiao Yuer let out a frenzied, long cry. Her entire body turned into silver starlight, her long black hair emitted silver starlight, and a terrifying aura radiated from her.
The powerful aura whipped up a fierce gale.
But this violent gale could not budge the woman.
"Dou Zun? Giggles, you've finally advanced to the Dou Zun level. Before long, you'll reach the Dou Sheng level. Yuer, you've succeeded!"
"Having broken through your emotional tribulation, there are no more shackles to your cultivation in the Fighting Qi Continent. Even the legendary Dou Di level can be reached, as long as there is enough energy!"
the woman said excitedly.
A Dou Zun? Miss Xiao Yuer let out an earth-shaking cry and slowly calmed down. She showed no emotion regarding her increased cultivation, becoming extremely cold.
A Dou Zun powerhouse? Miss Xiao Yuer would rather not have it!
"Yuer!" The woman looked at Miss Xiao Yuer with satisfaction.
At this moment, Miss Xiao Yuer looked at the woman without a shred of teacher-disciple affection. With one extremely cold glance, her figure flickered and she vanished from the spot.
Seeing Miss Xiao Yuer's change, the woman smiled with satisfaction, picked up the Silver Moon Bow from the ground, and let out a long sigh of relief.
The Myriad Heavens Starry Decree?
Miss Xiao Yuer has finally taken this step. Her emotions are unstable now, but she will get better over time.
The awakening of the Star Pupils also signifies that her bloodline has awakened.
Advancing to the Dou Zun level was merely a byproduct.
The pain of personally killing the person one loves—no one who hasn't experienced it can understand.
In this instant, Miss Xiao Yuer's heart died; she only wanted to find a quiet place.
The woman chased after Miss Xiao Yuer.
Meanwhile, Hun Tiandi, amidst the nether energy on the ground, had eyes full of shock. Who was it? He still hadn't escaped.
The second arrow was even more of a killing blow, aimed right between the eyebrows.
"Your Majesty, are you alright?" Yun Xiao cried out in alarm.
Hun Tiandi waved his hand. With a thought, an arrow resembling a Qi-Breaking Arrow appeared in his hand.
"This arrow..." Wang Ku exclaimed.
