Chapter 479 Destruction
Chapter 479 Destruction
Chapter 479 Annihilation
A roar echoed through the forest, and dozens of miles away from Flying Spirit Spring, no fewer than sixty Ghost Scholars were on their way.
"They're coming."
Seemingly sensing the commotion, Ye Ru put down his bow and arrow, glanced at the scholars hidden in the woods, and then snapped his fingers.
After shaking a few times, there was no more movement in the woods.
"What's next?"
Kong Ling seemed to sense the sound coming from afar as well, and her expression gradually became more serious before she asked.
"Sun Tzu said: 'To wait for the distant with the near, to wait for the weary with the ease, to wait for the hungry with the full—this is the way to manage strength.'" We can simply wait for the weary with the ease, since our forces are already in ambush. This time, it will likely be a fierce battle, and due to the terrain, we cannot use our inner energy, so we can only rely on these bows and arrows..."
At this point, Ye Ru turned his head and glanced at the ferocious rhinoceros herd, and said.
In the distance, a herd of rhinoceroses was glaring angrily at Ye Ru, their paws lightly scraping the ground. If Ye Ru made any rash moves, he would probably be torn to shreds in an instant.
"Are you trying to wipe them out completely?"
Looking at the ferocious herd of rhinos, Kong Ling couldn't help but shudder. Ye Ru's actions were extremely bold and ruthless, because if she wasn't careful, she could be in mortal danger.
“Those quack scholars can’t recite the Analects. Here, we have a second life.”
Ye Ru smiled slightly, then said in a cold voice.
shhhhhh!
Just as Kong Ling was about to say something more, a sound of wind breaking echoed from afar, and then the leaves in the distance were torn apart, finally revealing more than sixty figures.
These people had different expressions, but they all had a cold look on their faces.
Where else can you run to?
Immediately afterwards, a young man stepped out from behind the group; it was none other than Yan Jin.
At this moment, Yan Jin's eyes were as cold as blades, and he gripped a powerful bow, looking at Ye Ru with an unfriendly expression.
Having lost to Ye Ru in the previous two rounds, he was greatly humiliated. Now that his opponent only had two men left, he naturally wanted revenge.
"I didn't expect you to arrive so quickly. What, haven't you learned your lesson from the previous two defeats?"
Looking at Yan Jin's cold gaze, Ye Ru shrugged, his face unchanged, but he put his hands behind his back, preparing to give a signal to the other scholars.
"Besieged by those rhinoceros herds, we've arrived now. You're nothing but stray dogs. Your talent is indeed great, but the demon race has issued the highest kill order. Killing you is our common mission. So, after this literary gathering, you should just die."
A mocking smile appeared on Yan Jin's lips, and a chill emanated from his body.
"You're not qualified to kill me. Who's the stray dog is still up in the air."
Ye Ru sneered, then snapped his fingers, causing the woods to shake and revealing dozens of figures.
They drew their bows and nocked their arrows, the tips pointing at the ghostly scholars not far away.
"Besides, when did I ever say that these rhinoceros herds were there to ambush us?"
Ye Ru added, his gaze growing even colder, before waving his hand and coldly saying:
"Fire arrows!"
Bang bang bang!
Countless arrows shot out from the forest, carrying a powerful whistling sound, and fiercely attacked the ghost scholars.
At the same time, some arrows were also fired at the rhinoceros herd. The arrows hit the rhinoceroses' tough skin, making them even more ferocious, and they charged at Ye Ru and his group.
Because the rhinoceros has no intelligence, it could not discern the relationship between Ye Ru and those ghost scholars, and without regard for anything else, it pounced on them.
This scene made Yan Jin's face turn ugly. Now only they had arrived, and there were still some people who had not come. Moreover, the other side had an ambush. They were no match for them at all.
Bang bang bang!
The arrows rained down like a storm, striking many of the ghost scholars and instantly rendering them all incapable of fighting. Their marks also flew towards the direction from which the arrows were shot.
"Damn it, you cheated!"
When Yan Jin saw Ye Ru's smug expression, he was furious. He never expected that the other party had gone to such lengths to ambush them.
"All's fair in war, but let's first assess your situation."
Ye Ru took out his bow, shot an arrow, and then began to climb up a tree trunk.
"We need to take care of them quickly, and then ambush the rest. I feel the remaining Ghost Scholars are probably heading this way too."
After climbing up the tree trunk, Ye Ru spoke loudly to Kong Ling and the others.
"clear."
Upon hearing this, Kong Ling nodded, then stepped forward and leaped into the air, firing five arrows directly.
It was at this moment that the power of the Sage Family became apparent.
"As expected of a family of saints, the education they receive is many times better than that of students from poor families."
After sighing, Ye Ru focused intently on attacking these ghostly scholars.
In just a few minutes, half of the ghost scholars here were eliminated, and more than a dozen of the literati were also discovered and eliminated.
Although killing is not allowed here, these ghost scholars have been found after all. After defeating them, the marks they obtained will be transferred to them, and they will naturally face elimination after the competition ends.
"boom!"
With a single arrow, Ye Ru's arrow struck Yan Jin's calf, instantly rendering him unable to move. Meanwhile, the rhinos charged wildly, injuring almost everyone they bumped into.
After a while, those ghostly scholars were completely wiped out by Ye Ru's scheme.
"How's it going? Are you convinced?"
Ye Ru kicked away Yan Jin's bow and arrow, and the remaining scholars began to drive away the rhinoceros herd.
"Don't forget there are two other people. They will avenge me when the time comes."
Yan Jin's face was so gloomy it was almost dripping with water. After a moment, he said in a cold voice.
"Then we'll have to wait and see if they can come. You might need to borrow them from us."
Nodding, Ye Ru was not threatened at all. Instead, he looked at Yan Jin and said.
"What do you want to do?"
Seeing Ye Ru's dark eyes, Yan Jin swallowed hard and said that he now realized how terrifying Ye Ru was, as he was able to defeat all sixty-odd ghost scholars he led in such a short time.
Upon hearing this, Ye Ru revealed a set of gleaming white teeth, and the words he spoke caused his expression to slowly change:
"Of course, I'll wipe you all out."
