"What's going on? Why did I suddenly feel so uneasy?"
That moment of panic caused her to lose track of Yang Lingrui's true body.
Yu Tingzhi hurriedly activated her secret art again, but the Gold Aspect Arrow that had been lurking in the shadows struck without warning, piercing through her skull before the secret art could take effect.
The arrow's inherent rotational force instantly shredded everything above Yu Tingzhi's shoulders into nothingness.
The immense gift of true essence she had just received was swept away by the wind through the hole in her neck.
All of Yu Tingzhi's thoughts and ambitions came to an abrupt end along with the outcome of having her head blown apart by a single arrow.
The arrow that had failed to hit her vital point during the Western Sect Grand Competition had finally claimed her life today.
At the same time, atop a mountain ten miles away.
Zi He's pair of purple pupils flickered with an eerie light, while the Gold Aspect Dharma Body behind him still maintained the posture of drawing its bow and loosing an arrow.
"Ancestor, today Cheng'er has slain one member of the Moon Sect for you first!"
After this thought, he gathered his true essence once more, nocked an arrow, and drew the bow as he built up power.
This time, he aimed at that bright moon of the Lanyue Sect.
"What a worthless fool, incapable of accomplishing anything and only capable of ruining it!"
Sensing Yu Tingzhi's life force extinguish, Yue Shuwang could no longer suppress her anxious fury. She cursed aloud, "Such a simple matter, even with Moonlight true essence to aid her, and she still made a mistake. Compared to Qingluan, she was worlds apart!"
In her agitation, Yue Shuwang had involuntarily called out Xue Qingluan's name.
