Chapter 86: Wrathfully Slaying Zhao JianyeChapter 1488: Qin Scouts

The sudden appearance of Qin army scouts did not cause panic among the personal guards surrounding Yelü Shenxuan.

They retreated in an orderly fashion, immediately shrinking the encirclement and sending three men on horseback to flank them.

On horseback, no one in the world could rival their Liao warriors.

This notion and pride have been deeply ingrained into every drop of their blood through centuries of warfare.

But Yelü Shenxuan merely glanced at it. Intrigued, he said: “Stop! I want to do this myself.”

After he finished speaking, he raised his hand.

Someone immediately took the longbow off his back and handed it to Yelu Shenxuan.

Yelü Shenxuan took the longbow, drew the string and nocked an arrow. The longbow was the highest-grade bow in the Liao army's arsenal. Its draw weight was immense; not even an ordinary strong man could pull it back, let alone a typical soldier in the Liao army.

That was just such a longbow, but in the hands of Yelü Shenxuan, it was like a toy. He easily pulled back the bowstring and aimed at the shadowy figure that could only be faintly seen running through the night, and shot an arrow like a shooting star.

The arrow has great power and incredible speed.

...so as soon as he moved, he vanished without a trace, leaving only the whistling sound of broken air behind him.

Then, a figure that had already run far into the darkness let out a scream and then fell to the ground.

"What a good archer the Crown Prince is!" someone exclaimed immediately.

That's not quite bootlicking.

They were at least a hundred paces apart. Even at midday, shooting at a stationary target from such a distance would be something to brag about. Let alone now, in the dead of night, aiming at a living person desperately running for their life instead of a still target.

To be able to hit the target with a single shot like that, it clearly shows that Yelü Shenxuan's skill is extraordinary.

Quickly, some guards came forward and pulled the person back.

At this time, the man was not yet dead.

Yelü Shenxuan didn't kill him, he only shot an arrow through his leg bone, leaving him unable to escape.

Seeing the young man in a Qin army uniform lying on the ground, howling in pain, an arrow piercing his thigh bone, staining his entire leg with blood, Yelv Shenxuan's eyes looked at him like he was an animal, and said, "You have guts. You dare to come here Aren't you afraid of death"

Although that Qin army scout was grimacing in pain, he still gritted his teeth and snarled, "There are no cowards in the Great Qin! My father is known for his bravery. If I had more time, I'd even visit your mother's bed!"

This statement is highly characteristic of central China.

It easily provoked the anger of everyone, even Yelu Shenxuan's eyes turned cold.

He sneered and said, “Do you know who I am”

"I know!"

The Qin scout, knowing he was surely going to die, gave it his all and said: "Just now I heard them call you Prince. You are Yelü Shenxuan, aren't you Unfortunately, old man here doesn't have the chance to take this news back."

Ye Lu Shen Xuan slightly bowed his head, looking down at him from above, and said: "It's alright, no need to regret. I give you the opportunity to take the message back."

Having said that, regardless of the shock on the scout's face, Yelü Shenxuan straightened his body and asked in a calm tone, "Shouldn't this place be the south gate of Yueya Pass"

"Reporting to the prince, thirty miles outside, it is Yueya Pass's south city gate." Someone replied.

"Good."

Ye Lu Shen Xuan nodded and pointed to the scout on the ground. "Have him run ahead, all the way to the south gate of Yueya Pass. I'll let the Qin army at Yueya Pass see how their brothers bring them messages back."peaks truly" asked Ji Wang, pursuing the matter.Li Chen said leisurely, "Monks do not tell lies, and this palace even more so, speaks with the weight of gold.""Then, Master Jiwu almost immediately con...
