Let Me Turn the Tables and Be the Boss!

"??"

Wu Yingying really wanted to say that she had already widened her eyes, ready to watch carefully and learn properly, only for him to suddenly say he had just learned to shoot arrows.

How the hell was she supposed to learn that!?

"How about you use a sword instead?"

After thinking it over, Wu Yingying still offered a tactful reminder.

She had paid attention to him drawing the bow and firing arrows just now.

But Spirit Beasts were not like trees rooted in place.

They were alive. They could run and jump.

Dodging arrows should be easy, right?

Not to mention the Level 3 Spirit Beast, the Netherworld Wolf King.

That Level 3 Spirit Beast, the Netherworld Wolf King, alone should be enough to give Zhao Chen a headache.

There were also four Level 2 Spirit Beast Netherworld Wolves and fifteen Level 1 Spirit Beast Netherworld Wolves down there.

Wu Yingying estimated her own strength. Although she already possessed a Second-Level Spirit Body, she could at most handle two Level 2 Spirit Beast Netherworld Wolves.

Killing them was basically impossible.

With those Level 1 Spirit Beast Netherworld Wolves interfering as well, the danger was enormous.

She was worried sick. They could not possibly wait until dawn and hope the Netherworld wolf pack left on its own.

That was completely unrealistic. The Netherworld wolf pack had clearly marked them as prey.

Until they successfully hunted their prey, they would never leave.

"You don't believe in my skills?"

Zhao Chen looked at Wu Yingying with a faint smile and asked.

He had complete confidence in himself, so how could she lack confidence in him?

After all, he could hardly believe that Wu Yingying could resolve the Netherworld wolf pack's hunt.

"You..."

Wu Yingying hesitated, nervously backing away before saying,

"Then be careful. I won't be able to help much."

At most, she could make sure she did not get in the way and affect him.

Since he thought his archery was good, he could give it a try.

The corners of her lips curled up slightly. For some reason, she was actually looking forward to seeing him embarrass himself.

Then, she could give him a little accidental mockery.

Zhao Chen would probably grab the Asura Sword and charge down to slaughter them all.

The crisis would naturally be resolved.

And she could wait at the side, seize an opportunity, and kill a few Netherworld Wolves.

That way, she would contribute while also slacking off. Perfect!

Zhao Chen rolled his eyes. What was this little girl thinking?

Did she really think an old hand like him would crash and burn?

Dream on!

"Awoo..."

Low growls continuously sounded beneath the tree.

Dozens of green wolf eyes gleamed as they stared toward the canopy.

Zhao Chen stroked his chin and began searching for a target.

He definitely could not deal with the Level 3 Spirit Beast Netherworld Wolf King first. If he failed to kill it in one shot, it would surely be driven into a frenzy.

It would not be easy to deal with then.

He would shoot a few Level 1 Spirit Beast Netherworld Wolves first and test the waters.

Zhao Chen nocked the Fire Python Tail Arrow onto the Asura Bowstring, then aimed at some unlucky fellow and decisively fired before it could react at all.

Whoosh!

A piercing sound split the air. In the darkness, the Fire Python Tail Arrow trailed a streak of red light and plunged directly into the completely defenseless Netherworld Wolf's body.

Zhao Chen tugged on the tiger tendon, and the Fire Python Tail Arrow sprang back.

"You hit it!?"

Wu Yingying stared at the trace of blood on the Fire Python Tail Arrow, its fishy scent lingering in the air, and exclaimed in surprise.

His first shot had actually not gone wide!?

"I told you to watch carefully and learn properly."

Zhao Chen shook his head and shifted his target to the four Level 2 Spirit Beast Netherworld Wolves.

The death of that unlucky Netherworld Wolf had caused some unrest in the pack.

"Awoo!"

The Level 3 Spirit Beast Netherworld Wolf King let out a low howl, attempting to calm the pack.

Yet in the next moment, the Fire Python Tail Arrow flew out again.

That Level 2 Spirit Beast Netherworld Wolf seemed to sense the approaching danger and tried to resist, intending to dodge to the side.

But it was utterly useless.

Its futile struggle could not stop the Fire Python Tail Arrow from piercing straight into its back.

The nearby Level 2 Spirit Beast Netherworld Wolves were scared out of their wits. They repeatedly leaped up and twisted their waists, as though they would be shot next and follow in its footsteps.

"Not bad."

After retrieving the Fire Python Tail Arrow again, Zhao Chen finally relaxed.

His efforts had not been in vain.

With a little talent added in, shooting Spirit Beasts like Netherworld Wolves was not much of a problem.

"Did you see that? Those Netherworld Wolves are dancing!"

Wu Yingying's eyes widened as she pointed at the two frightened Level 2 Spirit Beast Netherworld Wolves and said in amazement.

She had never seen Spirit Beasts dance like that before.

"...They're obviously scared, okay!"

Zhao Chen was speechless. He gripped the Fire Python Tail Arrow and drew the Asura Bowstring, his expression turning solemn.

This Fire Python Tail Arrow was made only from the tailbone of a Level 2 Spirit Beast Fire Python Tiger.

Combined with the Asura Bow, it could kill Level 2 Spirit Beast Netherworld Wolves in his hands without much trouble.

Zhao Chen was confident he could shoot down the remaining three Level 2 Spirit Beast Netherworld Wolves.

It was the Level 3 Spirit Beast Netherworld Wolf King that would be difficult.

To complete the sign-in mission, he had to use the Asura Bow to kill a Spirit Beast.

"Right, do you think I can shoot that Level 3 Spirit Beast?"

Zhao Chen thought for a moment, then looked toward Wu Yingying. Could there be something useful in her Storage Bag?

Before, he had been too kind and had only made her take out two spirit herbs.

Given her background as someone from a major clan, there had to be more than just two spirit herbs in her Storage Bag.

Now, though, Zhao Chen could not exactly ask her for something outright.

"Impossible. Even though they're both Level 3, there's no way you can shoot the Netherworld Wolf King to death!"

Wu Yingying shook her head without hesitation and continued, "This Fire Python Tail Arrow is only made from the tailbone of a Level 2 Spirit Beast Fire Python Tiger. Although it's the hardest bone in its body, it still isn't enough to break through the Netherworld Wolf King's surface defenses."

Zhao Chen blinked when he heard that and asked in return,

"Then let's make a bet. If I use this Fire Python Tail Arrow to break through the Netherworld Wolf King's surface defenses and make it bleed, I win. Otherwise, you win. How about it?"

Wu Yingying was sufficiently alert to immediately realize something was wrong.

Why had they suddenly started talking about a bet?

Something was off. There had to be something off.

"What... do you want to bet?"

Wu Yingying crossed her arms over her chest and asked nervously.

It could not be what she was thinking, could it?

Things were already so tense. Could they not pick another time and place!?

"If I win, give me a weapon that can be used as an arrow. How about that?"

Zhao Chen's heated gaze moved to the Storage Bag at Wu Yingying's waist.

"..."

Wu Yingying was furious. She had never expected him to still have designs on her Storage Bag at a time like this.

Had she not already told him? She did not have anything left!

Wait.

It seemed...

Wu Yingying narrowed her eyes slightly, a strange smile appearing on her face.

Without Zhao Chen's reminder, she would have forgotten that there was something in her Storage Bag resembling an arrow.

"If you lose, what will you do?"

It was as if Wu Yingying had seized fate by the throat. At this moment, she absolutely could not let go.

Once she did, she would have to continue being his little follower like this.

She never wanted to experience such a miserable ordeal a second time in her life!

Turn the tables—this was the moment for her to turn the tables!

"What do you want?"

Zhao Chen asked with a smile.

Good, just like that.

If this continued, he could reel her in.

Wu Yingying shouted without hesitation, "You have to help me find the Crimson Token, and you have to let me turn the tables and be the boss!"
