Chapter 12

In the midst of the arrows flying back and forth, neither side dared to advance. The people of Hu Ya Fortress were concerned about the women behind them, while the hunters from Ying Ling realized that the number of the enemy far exceeded their expectations, so they did not dare to act rashly.

Ko Dashi turned his head and looked back, knowing in his heart that someone had to break the deadlock. Ko Shi was on his left, and Ko Nanshan was on his right. The three of them were accustomed to working together, and even in the face of a sudden attack, they could still gather together. Lei Xingfeng, however, did not have such默契. He had only recently joined the three-person hunting team, and many habits still needed to be cultivated.

Ko Nanshan said, "Where is Feng?"

Ko Shi replied, "I saw him rush out, but I don't know where he went." The three of them had seen Lei Xingfeng rush out and followed closely, but in an instant, Lei Xingfeng had disappeared, moving too fast.

Lei Xingfeng had already reached the front line. He hid behind a large rock, with a dense bush beside him and several large trees in front. Due to a large rock, the view here was relatively open. Relying on his Lei Wheel power and the new sense he had gained, he discovered four archers from Ying Ling in the trees and about ten more hiding behind the trees or bushes.

This was a well-prepared ambush. Lei Xingfeng began to observe carefully, memorizing each person he discovered.

The hunters from Hu Ya Fortress were also hidden in a battle line. Anyone who dared to enter the central area between the two sides would certainly be attacked, so no one dared to move.

After careful analysis, Lei Xingfeng felt confident. He quietly sneaked up to Ko Dashi and, with his perception, easily found him. He whispered, "Uncle Ko, I need your help."

Ko Dashi said, "What do you need us to do? Tell me, I'll follow your lead!" Having seen Lei Xingfeng's powerful archery skills, he had great confidence in the sixteen-year-old boy. Ko Nanshan also smiled and said, "Just tell us what to do, I'll follow you too!"

Ko Shi did not speak but nodded to Lei Xingfeng, indicating that he would follow orders.

Invisibly, Lei Xingfeng had become the leader.

A sense of pride welled up in Lei Xingfeng's heart. This was the benefit of having strong martial power. He said, "I need... you to draw the enemy's attention. Yes, it would be best to get everyone involved, but don't rush out. Just make some noise..."

Ko Dashi said, "No problem. Nanshan, you inform the people on the left, I'll inform the people on the right. Ko Shi, you follow Feng and help him defend!" Among the three, only Ko Shi carried a shield, which was best for defense.

Ko Shi said, "Leave it to me!" He was not a man of many words, but when he spoke, he was fully committed.

Soon, the hunters from Hu Ya Fortress made a commotion, and the hunters from Ying Ling could not resist attacking. At that moment, Lei Xingfeng suddenly stood up, and the black bow made a loud metallic sound. With a series of bangs, he shot six specially made arrows in less than a few seconds.

A series of惨叫声 rang out. The four people in the trees were all nailed to the tree trunks. Even if they were hiding behind the trunks, the specially made arrows pierced through the trunks and through the people hiding behind them. The two hunters hiding behind the bushes had no way to dodge and were killed with one arrow.

There was no way to dodge. Lei Xingfeng's arrows were like the summons of death, and whoever received them would die.

The hunters from Ying Ling immediately fell into chaos. One of their archers, who was a renowned marksman, was nailed to the tree trunk with an arrow. The arrow pierced through his left rib and exited from the right, pinning him to the tree. This single arrow left the marksman with half a life, and the intense pain made him scream incessantly.

This time, the hunters from Ying Ling did not flee but charged out with a roar. There were more than twenty of them, in groups of three or four, with the front ones holding shields. They were determined to fight to the death, and the hunters from Hu Ya Fortress continuously shot arrows at them.

Lei Xingfeng noticed that the arrows from their side did not kill many. Many arrows, even if they hit, could not penetrate the enemy's leather armor. Only if they hit the face could they injure the enemy, but the head was the hardest part to hit, especially for experienced hunters.

Three hunters from Ying Ling charged towards Lei Xingfeng's position, which had been marked by the previous shooting.

Ko Shi said, "Feng, be careful, I'll be in front!" He moved in front of Lei Xingfeng, holding a shield in one hand and a three-edged steel spike in the other.

Lei Xingfeng sneered and said, "No problem, watch me!" He now had unlimited confidence in the black bow. He drew the bow, nocked an arrow, and aimed at the lead hunter from Ying Ling, who was holding a shield.

Bang!

Every time he heard this metallic sound, Lei Xingfeng had a strange feeling. It was not the sound of a bowstring but more like a gunshot from his previous life.

Ko Shi was surprised to see the charging hunter as if he had been punched hard. A small hole appeared on his shield, and an arrow pierced through his head, leaving only the arrow tail on his forehead. He was killed instantly.

Bang! Bang!

No matter how the two hunters dodged, Lei Xingfeng's arrows were too fast, and they fell to the ground in an instant.

Killing three people did not feel difficult to Lei Xingfeng. With the powerful force of the black bow, his arrows had unparalleled penetration power. With the current equipment of the hunters, there was almost no defense.

At this moment, the hunters from both sides were already engaged in battle.

Ko Dashi swung his arm, and a short steel spear flew out. The hunter on the opposite side was not simple, holding a spear and easily deflecting the incoming short spear. Ko Dashi's ambush failed, and his hiding place was exposed. The hunter charged towards Ko Dashi.

Bang! Bang!

Two bowstring sounds, and the hunter calmly deflected the arrows with his spear, shouting and charging forward.

Ko Nanshan, seeing that shooting was ineffective, immediately discarded his bow and charged out with Ko Dashi.

Two against one, Ko Dashi was surprised to find that the opponent was extremely strong, handling both of them with ease. His eyes constantly scanned the surroundings.

In just a few seconds, Ko Dashi was injured, a sharp spear cutting a bloody wound on his arm. Although it was not serious, it clearly slowed him down. Ko Nanshan was frustrated, thinking that if Ko Shi were there, with their years of hunting experience, they could definitely hold off this expert.

Bang!

The familiar metallic sound made the hunter's face change. He almost instinctively raised his long spear, slightly moved it, and heard a ting as an arrow fell. Someone said, "Not bad, you managed to block my arrow. Ko Dashi, Uncle Nanshan, retreat!"

Ko Dashi and Ko Nanshan, hearing this special bowstring sound, knew that Lei Xingfeng had acted. Both were experienced and immediately retreated.

The hunter from Ying Ling stared intently at the nearby area and said calmly, "Come out! Hiding in the dark and shooting cold arrows is not the way of a true man. Come out and fight me!"

Lei Xingfeng knew that the black bow could not injure the opponent, and he had no more arrows. He threw the black bow to Ko Shi and pulled out a dagger, walking out.

The hunter was extremely surprised to see Lei Xingfeng, not expecting the person who posed a great threat to be a teenager. This was truly unexpected. He said, "I didn't expect Hu Ya Fortress to have such a marksman. Haha, let's fight, and the loser dies!"

Ko Dashi angrily said, "Bastard! I'll fight you!"

The hunter said calmly, "You're not good enough! You'll die as soon as you come out!"

After practicing Lei Wheel power, Lei Xingfeng was full of confidence. The practice also made him a bit more assertive. He no longer hesitated to hide his thoughts and said, "Lei Xingfeng, you! Step forward and name yourself!"

The hunter chuckled and said, "Interesting kid, I am Ying Da Fei from Ying Ling. Haha, unfortunately, you're about to die in my hands! Come on, let me see how good the next generation of Hu Ya Fortress is."

Lei Xingfeng looked at the dagger in his hand and then at the nearly two-meter-long steel spear in the opponent's hand and said, "Die in your hands? Big talk... be careful you don't trip over your tongue! Ko Dashi, give me a short spear!"

Ko Dashi had shot out two short spears and had two left. He threw one to Lei Xingfeng and said, "Feng, be careful."

Lei Xingfeng smiled and said, "I've practiced for so many years. Hehe, it's time to show what I can do!" If he had not practiced Lei Wheel power, he might still be timid, but after practicing, the timidity in his character was completely eliminated. This timidity was brought from his previous life, where he had never engaged in any violent behavior and was a law-abiding ordinary person.

Ying Da Fei's face became serious. He said, "Come on! Let me see if your skills can withstand my attack." He felt certain he would win, the only difference being whether he would kill the opponent quickly or be delayed for a while. The outcome would be the same.

The hunters from Ying Ling and Hu Ya Fortress were still fighting, but Ying Da Fei's status in Ying Ling seemed very high. When he spoke, the hunters from Ying Ling began to disengage, and the hunters from Hu Ya Fortress also retreated, preparing to aid Lei Xingfeng. After all, Lei Xingfeng was the main hunter, and if anything happened to him, it would be a big problem.

Hu Cangya also arrived, leading a group of hunters.

Ying Da Fei's heart sank. He did not expect so many hunters from Hu Ya Fortress to come, feeling that he had miscalculated. However, he noticed something about Lei Xingfeng. The hunters from Hu Ya Fortress looked tense, indicating that Lei Xingfeng was very important. He said, "All hunters from Ying Ling, retreat! Temporary ceasefire!" Since it was a one-on-one fight, the scale of the battle needed to be controlled.

Hu Cangya issued the same order and said, "Feng, what's going on?" He had not seen the previous scene and did not know about the two men's conflict, but the confrontation between Lei Xingfeng and Ying Da Fei gave him a bad feeling.

Lei Xingfeng said nonchalantly, "He wants to kill me."
