Chapter 481

However, although Zhu Long had been heavily wounded, he had ultimately neutralized the power of that divine arrow.

Yet, just as his figure retreated violently,

two more sounds of air being torn apart rang out.

The Sun-Setting Divine Arrow was unstoppable.

Two more Golden Crows were completely annihilated; thus, of the ten Golden Crows, six had already fallen.

Watching all this, Ying Long was terrified to the point of despair, his eyes splitting with rage.

But he was helpless.

Moreover, although all this seemed long, it had occurred in the blink of an eye.

In just a brief moment, Hou Yi had suppressed and killed six great Golden Crows.

This scene left the living beings of the Honghuang World shaken.

"To kill six Golden Crows in a row—if Di Jun finds out, the consequences will be unimaginable."

"I never expected that among the Wu Clan, besides the Ancestral Witches, Hou Yi would possess such terrifying strength."

Some great powers discussed it in hushed tones.

One must know, the ten Golden Crows were Di Jun's offspring; Di Jun doted on them extremely and would not allow them to suffer even the slightest harm.

Yet now, Hou Yi had shot and killed six of them in succession.

One could imagine how furious Di Jun would be upon learning of this.

While all living beings were in shock, Hou Yi moved his body and arrived directly above the Nine Heavens.

"Ten Golden Crows, today you shall all die."

Hou Yi shouted loudly, and before his words had even faded, he pulled back the Sun-Setting Divine Bow in his hand once more.

"Hou Yi, he still won't stop at this moment?"

"Could it be that he wants to wipe out all ten Golden Crows?"

"By doing this, is Hou Yi not afraid of drawing the Heavenly Court's great army?"

"The great war between the Wu and Demon clans is likely about to erupt."

The masses were stunned for a moment, watching in shock as Hou Yi stood proudly in the void.

At this moment, seeing Hou Yi standing above the Nine Heavens and drawing his bow again, Zhu Long's pupils shrank, and his expression changed drastically.

He had already experienced the power of the Sun-Setting Archery technique.

If he let Hou Yi strike again, each arrow would be more powerful than the last, and he had no confidence in blocking it.

The only plan now was to engage in close-quarters combat, preventing Hou Yi from using the Sun-Setting Divine Bow.

Thinking of this, Ying Long moved his body.

Piercing through layers of space, he arrived instantly before Hou Yi.

"Hou Yi, die!"

Zhu Long roared, and his giant dragon claw smashed toward Hou Yi like a divine mountain...

Seeing this, Hou Yi had no choice but to put away the Sun-Setting Divine Bow and meet the attack head-on.

Zhu Long opened his giant mouth and spat out bolts of lightning, the momentum vast and soul-shaking.

Hou Yi, however, withstood it with the power of his physical body.

Boom!

Above the Nine Heavens, thunder suddenly appeared.

One after another, huge sounds shook the void.

Under the impact of the terrifying thunder, even time and space vibrated violently, as if they were about to collapse completely and return to nothingness.

Relying on the Wu Clan's formidable physical strength, Hou Yi was, for a time, evenly matched with Zhu Long, making it hard to tell who was superior.

Of course, this was all because Zhu Long was already injured.

But the gap in cultivation could not be bridged.

Ying Long was currently at the early-stage Quasi-Saint realm, while Hou Yi was only equivalent to the Daluo perfect realm.

Soon, Hou Yi began to show signs of decline, finding it difficult to hold out.

Under the bombardment of terrifying lightning, Hou Yi retreated constantly, appearing quite disheveled.

Just as Hou Yi was about to be defeated, a violent shout suddenly echoed through the void.

"You feathered beast of the Demon Clan, how dare you act so viciously here?"

Before the voice had faded, a figure ten thousand feet long appeared high in the sky, holding a sharp, chilling giant axe, which he swung down violently, giving Zhu Long a shock.

The newcomer was none other than the Great Witch of the Wu Clan, Xing Tian.

Xing Tian was known as the God of War of the Wu Clan, his combat power extremely formidable.

His left hand held a shield, and his right hand held a giant axe.

The shield for defense, the axe for offense—both attack and defense were covered.

As soon as Xing Tian appeared, he was aggressive to the extreme.

As he swung the giant axe, the momentum was overwhelming, so fast that his shadow was almost invisible.

Zhu Long felt a chill in his heart; not daring to resist with his physical body, he hurriedly turned his body to deal with Xing Tian.

"Hou Yi, go continue hunting those feathered beasts."

"Leave this Zhu Long to me."

Xing Tian said.

"Xing Tian, I have come to assist you."

At this moment, several more voices rang out.

The Great Witches Jiu Feng, Xiang Liu, and Chi You appeared one after another, joining forces with Xing Tian to besiege Zhu Long.

Hou Yi took this opportunity to break free and once again drew the Sun-Setting Divine Bow.

Swish!

A heavenly sound exploded; the leader of the ten Golden Crows, Bo Huang, was pierced by the divine arrow and completely perished.

"Hou Yi, you are presumptuous!"

"The Golden Crow Crown Prince is the bloodline inheritance of my Heavenly Court. If you act so viciously, the Heavenly Emperor will surely make you wish for death."

Zhu Long roared loudly, his eyes filled with surging fury.

He wished he could strike out and suppress Hou Yi immediately.

However, at this moment, he was besieged by Xing Tian and the other Great Witches, and he was helpless against all this.

In the Zixiao Palace.

Hongjun cast his gaze toward the Honghuang World.

Zhunti's schemes had long been detected by him.

The reason he did not intervene was that the Demon Clan at this time truly possessed the strength to contend with the Wu Clan.

At this moment, Hongjun watched as the many Golden Crows perished, his expression calm.

"Of the ten Golden Crows, only one shall remain."

Hongjun whispered to himself.

As the spokesperson for the Heavenly Dao, he had long sensed the heavenly destiny in the dark.

According to the destined heavenly path, of the ten Golden Crows, only the youngest, the Tenth Prince, would survive.

Therefore, he did not intervene, nor would he tell Di Jun about this matter.

And in the Honghuang World at this moment.

With the death of the First Prince Bo Huang, the other three Golden Crows were terrified to the point of despair.

Of the ten Golden Crows, only three remained.

With their thoughts racing, the three quickly made up their minds, each turning their bodies and flying off in three different directions.

At this moment, they had only one thought in their hearts: to escape beyond Hou Yi's field of vision.

Having never experienced a life-and-death battle, the Golden Crows were now completely terrified, like birds startled by the mere twang of a bow.

Watching this scene, Hou Yi smiled coldly.

"Hmph! Do you think you can escape so easily?"

Hou Yi drew his bow and notched an arrow again.

Swish!

A brilliant golden light traversed the heavens and earth, and another Golden Crow's physical body shattered.
