The King of Medium- and Long-Range Combat

"I guess you were raised by Lord Feiyu and have never met your own mother!"

"Huh!"

I'd guess you're around sixty-five years old now!

"He's only sixty-three!"

"I bet you're an extrovert, and you have at least eight to ten demon birds as your friends!"

"Let me count... I think I have nine, but after your cousin died, there will only be eight!"

"I guess you must be skilled in archery!"

"I never used this magic in front of you!"

"I'm guessing you only shower every few days, not every day!"

"Ugh, how annoying!"

Zhang Xuezhou was traveling with the demon bird Lingyu. He couldn't guess when the demon bird might revert to its ancestral form, but based on the demon bird's memories, it would be easy for him to deceive it.

After a series of guesses and questions, Lingyu realized that Zhang Xuezhou was an extraordinary Technique Method, far more skilled than her father, Feiyu.

Zhang Xuezhou led her into a ditch, and she also revealed many little secrets about the Xieluosi River Holy Land.

For example, what demon kings her father, Feiyu, liked to play with, what skills those demon kings were good at, and what important tasks these demon kings would occasionally go out in groups to do. Also, the Venerable One would only come out of the lake to catch his breath every six months, and occasionally, when he was in the mood, he would go to the Supreme Peak to daydream...

These things seem like casual conversation, and may not seem very useful, but in the hands of a true fortune teller, they are information that is more than enough to devise a countermeasure.

After casting the Person-Fixing Technique spell, Zhang Xuezhou realized another benefit that the Person-Fixing Technique brought.

This can easily lead the target of the spell to trust themselves completely, thus providing more detailed information.

"Master Dong seems to have mentioned a sacrificial, evil Technique Method called Soul Searching Technique in the past..."

If the negative effects can be eliminated, the Soul Searching Technique seems to be not much different from the Person-Fixing Technique.

If the higher-ups were to target them under some pretext, that might be enough to leave the Fuxi Physiognomy School with no chance to argue, since ordinary people and ordinary cultivators have no different abilities.

"This technique is really inconvenient to use!"

If Zhang Xuezhou wants to gain anything from the Person-Fixing Technique, he not only needs to improve this technique, but he also needs to figure out how to release it normally so that he won't be mistaken for an evil cultivator.

The Han Kingdom, which inherited the Qin Dynasty's system, saw this school of thought severely suppressed.

Zhang Xuezhou felt he had acquired some skills, but he didn't know how to develop them, let alone how to use them to his advantage.

This applies not only to Person-Fixing Technique but also to Acupoint-Fixing Technique.

"No wonder Master Hongku only learned the Star-Fixing Technique, and that's the technique he recommended to his senior brother. He couldn't recommend anything else!"

Many things only become clear after experiencing them firsthand. Zhang Xuezhou previously thought he had received an extraordinary inheritance, but after thinking things through, he realized that the inheritance of the Xiangmen sect was just so-so.

This is, as usual, a skill that's not something you can easily show off.

If it's inconvenient to use it, then this is similar to the treatment he received for his nine evasion techniques.

"I feel like I've learned so many skills, but I can't seem to master any of them."

Zhang Xuezhou has been working in the field for several years and has learned a lot.

But whether it's the alchemy and formations of the Yin-Yang School, the "Technique Within the Clouds", the physiognomy inherited from Hongku, or the nine avoidance techniques originating from the Heavenly Court, this even includes the Great Wilderness Creation Scripture bestowed by the Venerable, as well as the "Tomb Scripture" and the Nine Revolutions Qi Harmony Technique obtained by Wenying Pavilion, etc.

He has many skills, but it seems that the only one he can openly and legitimately use is the fossil technique.

"Something's not right!"

Zhang Xuezhou felt that after several years of ups and downs, he shouldn't have ended up like this.

He had clearly learned the most secret techniques from various schools of thought, but he couldn't find any techniques to use in a normal game.

I have a bad feeling about this!

The paranoia brought on by physiognomy kept churning in Zhang Xuezhou's mind, and even with the help of psychology, he found it difficult to completely calm his distracting thoughts.

As dawn broke, Zhang Xuezhou entered the Xieluosi River Holy Land using a combination of walking and flying, before shifting his focus.

What was once a serene scene of grazing cattle and sheep amidst swaying grass has now become a source of fear and unease for demons.

"That Flying General has infiltrated our Sacred Land!"

"Tiger Strength Demon King seems to have been killed!"

"He wasn't completely killed; the Demon King Luli is still saving him!"

"That Azure Source Demon Saint is finally dead!"

"His head was shot off, he definitely can't survive!"

"The Heron Demon King has also been killed!"

Where is the Demon King Kong?

"I heard they went to hunt them down, but..."

In the palace area beside the lake, hundreds of demonic birds appeared to be half-bird and half-human, each holding swords, clubs and other weapons, constantly flapping their wings and flying around the Sacred Land. Some demonic birds also stood on some high places to observe and patrol.

For ordinary cultivators, this method would undoubtedly be extremely advantageous.

But in Li Guang's eyes, who was skilled in shooting, they were all live targets when they flew up.

If they don't fly up to inspect patrols and engage in combat, they have no other skills.

With the protection of the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains, they have always been able to play very freely, but after the balance of offense and defense was broken, the Xieluosi River Holy Land was obviously panicked and unable to cope.

Not to mention these demons, even His Majesty himself was unwilling to show his face at this moment.

"The Flying General is here!"

Perhaps it was Zhang Xuezhou and Ling Yu's intrusion into the Sacred Land from the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains that startled some demons, because Zhang Xuezhou heard a few whooshing sounds and the patrolling figures flying over the Sacred Land had vanished without a trace.

"Chirp chirp chirp... I'm back!"

Lingyu, who wasn't very bright, let out a light cry, and some bird demons peeked out from the building's hiding places. Some of the startled bird demons couldn't help but curse a few times before abruptly stopping themselves.

Some demons can be fought and killed, but some demons cannot even be cursed.

Even though Lingyu was just an ordinary bird demon, the Feiyu on its back belonged to a powerful figure from Sacred Land.

"Lingyu, hide quickly! A fiend has arrived at our Sacred Land!"

A demon shouted, then quickly withdrew its head.

"Don't be afraid, everyone! My dad's gone to find that leader of the Northern Frontier Legion. Chirp, chirp, he'll definitely peck him to death!"

Lingyu replied, naturally believing that the image of the Feiyu was glorious and omnipotent, and that no matter what kind of general or Li Guang was, they would all have to kneel down.

"Is that... Flying General right below Ling Yu's body?"

The light in the early morning is not bright, and some birds have poor eyesight in dim light.

Upon suddenly seeing Zhang Xuezhou walking on his legs below Ling Yu, some bird demons couldn't help but mistake him for someone else in their shock.

This immediately silenced the previously tense and anxious Sacred Land.

"Don't be afraid, everyone! He's Black Hair's cousin!" Ling Yu shouted. "My dad even knows him!"

"Li Guang, don't push your luck! If you can ambush and kill me in the Xieluosi River Holy Land today, I'll march on your Chang'an City tomorrow!"

An angry voice came from the bottom of the lake, and the Venerable One's voice immediately resounded throughout the entire Sacred Land.

"They're really among us?"

The lord's angry roar did not come out of nowhere, which startled Zhang Xuezhou.

In the dim light of dawn, he felt an arrow streak across the sky like a shooting star, then land in the center of the lake, causing a shower of rain.

"Welcome!"

In the faint response, Li Guang seemed both distant and close, making it difficult to pinpoint his location.

It was precisely because it was difficult to determine the distance of Li Guang that a sense of fear arose in people's hearts.

Clearly, in medium- to long-range combat, Li Guang is indeed the king of this field; even the Venerable One doesn't want to test whether the opponent has the ability to kill him.
