Having cultivated myself into an immortal, all I want to do is raise female disciples.

Unexpectedly, Ye Yuchan, who had spent a long time learning even a simple boxing style, actually had such a high talent for archery.

Could it be that this girl will become the second Heavenly Saint, carrying forward the art of archery?

Yunping didn't know.

What shocked him even more was what happened next.

Because she hadn't practiced archery properly, Ye Yuchan took an unusually long time to aim this time, focusing all her attention on that one point.

On the dragon's eyes.

Aim, aim...

Then—let go!

"Give me... the right thing!!"

Wow!

Black flames burned wildly at the tip of the silver arrow, carrying an aura of endless destruction as it flew toward the dragon's enormous head.

Immediately afterwards—

This was a scene that astonished Yun Ping, Ye Yuchan, and even the giant dragon.

Because of that black flame arrow...

It actually grazed past the dragon's eye, turning into a black shooting star and shooting into the sky.

……

This arrow, which had been carefully prepared for so long, actually missed!

16. Who is the human-dog head? (Bonus chapter for monthly votes: 13)

An awkward atmosphere permeated the air.

Ye Yuchan held the bow in both hands, staring blankly at the enormous dragon spirit, which in turn stared blankly at the human before it.

Having lived for so long, this was the first time it had ever seen such a person—for a moment, it felt as if its eyes would never see the light again.

But this crucial arrow went astray?!

This is definitely not luck.

Yunping's astonished expression from a moment ago instantly turned into one of extreme dissatisfaction, and he shouted at Ye Yuchan at the top of his lungs.

"What the hell is wrong with you?! What are you doing?! You've gotten so cocky already?!"

"I didn't get carried away!" Ye Yuchan's expression looked like she was about to cry. "I don't know why, I aimed clearly, but I just missed. It's not my fault!"

"You'd better practice your archery properly from now on!"

"It's all your fault for making me practice hand-to-hand combat!!"

……

Wait a minute, it seems that's indeed the case.

It seems Ye Yuchan initially approached me wanting to learn archery, and I first taught her close-quarters combat techniques...

Huh? So, does that mean this mistake was my fault?!

Upon thinking of this, Yunping suddenly felt that Ye Yuchan's gaze seemed to be filled with a lot of resentment.

He coughed twice, then turned his back and silently took the blame in his heart.

This is very embarrassing.

……

On the other side, Ye Yuchan, whose arrow had missed its mark, showed no signs of discouragement. She continued to mobilize her spiritual energy, using her Little Heavenly Thunder Body to create distance between herself and the Dragon Spirit.

He drew the bow again, drew the arrow, and the black flames reappeared.

Having lived in the world for so many years, the dragon spirit's combat experience could not be measured by mere numbers. It judged that last time, it was just that Lady Luck had failed to favor the human girl. If she were to find another opportunity to shoot that black arrow this time, it would truly be in some danger.

Its powerful legs slammed into the ground, sending the pale snowdrifts flying into the sky, forming a natural white curtain that briefly obscured Ye Yuchan's view.

The next moment, a blazing cylindrical flame pierced through the curtain and rushed towards Ye Yuchan with the momentum of burning everything.

"Here we go again..."

Having already found a way to counter the dragon's breath, Ye Yuchan calmly abandoned the launch of the Black Flame Arrow. Instead, she nimbly moved her body, using her flexibility to twist her waist and dodge past the dragon's breath.

Next, all you have to do is run around in circles until you reach the dragon.

With this thought in mind, countless bolts of lightning flashed beneath Ye Yuchan's feet once again, just like before—she wanted to rush to the Dragon Spirit's side as quickly as possible and then shoot its eyes with the Black Flame Arrow!

This time, we absolutely cannot afford to make a mistake again!

That being said—

boom!

A gust of wind lashed at Ye Yuchan, and a large amount of snow rushed up with her, turning her entire body white.

What's going on?!

Ye Yuchan looked up in astonishment, and then spotted the dragon spirit's figure.

The dragon spirit flapped its wings, frantically spewing dragon breath, and slowly rose into the sky.

"Foul! Foul!! You actually used flying!!"

Just as Ye Yuchan finished speaking, a dragon's breath descended from the sky and nearly engulfed her.

She suddenly felt a surge of pressure. The dragon's breath, which she could easily dodge before, was now chasing her like a madman. The scorching heat made her scream out loud several times.

That's outrageous! This dragon actually flew into the sky and breathed fire!

That makes sense, if a dragon can't fly, can it be called a dragon?

The young Ye Yuchan was clearly unaware of this, and could only desperately dodge the dragon's breath to ensure her survival.

However, because the dragon's breath was following her so closely, she had no time to aim and could only rely on her instincts to draw her bow and shoot.

The benefits of this action were extremely limited, because Ye Yuchan's archery skills were not very advanced...

So the silver-haired girl could only keep running away, running away, and shooting arrows. Although she could occasionally hit her target, the damage to the dragon spirit was negligible.

If things continue like this, Ye Yuchan will definitely be the one who dies from exhaustion first, rather than the one that gets shot to death first.

"This plot... seems kind of familiar?"

Yunping stroked his chin, watching Ye Yuchan flee in a disheveled state, seemingly lost in thought.

The current situation...

It looks just like the Seven Dream Tree Trial!

So even if this old fool Ye Yuchan got the magic weapon and the cultivation technique, he'd still still sound the same?!

Just how much does she enjoy fighting while running?!

Ah—speaking of which.

If the plot continues as it did before, shouldn't Ye Yuchan get tired of running and then pull out her special skill to fight to the death with her opponent?

The moment this thought popped into her head, Ye Yuchan suddenly shouted.

"I'm angry! I'm really angry!"

"Today I'm going to teach you how to be a dragon!!"

She pressed a small button on the Black Rain Bow arm.

The next second, the black rain slowly shattered and twisted, and a large amount of soft metal slowly climbed up Ye Yuchan's right hand, forming a huge cannon muzzle. Right in the center of the muzzle was the dragon spirit that was continuously spewing fire without getting tired.

—Black Light.

This is her only killing move. She once used a black light cannon to achieve the effect of a full-force attack from a peak-stage cultivator. However, this thing requires far too much spiritual energy. After one shot, Ye Yuchan was basically lying down.

So Ye Yuchan took a step forward, leaving only a portion of her spiritual energy to temporarily protect her body from being immediately charred by the dragon's breath, while the rest rushed into the black light's cannon barrel.

The highly concentrated spiritual energy projectile condensed within the spiraling barrel of the black light—

Holy crap, that girl actually did it!

So, after all this time, you're still using the same tactics as before!

Yunping was truly at his wit's end. He had thought that Ye Yuchan would at least change a little during this time, but who knew that this girl would still stick to her old routine of sneaky fighting and finally exploding!

The dragon spirit, sensing the concentrated spiritual energy within the cannon barrel, was startled. Although it didn't know what the dark cannon barrel was, it could sense the threat.

It immediately withdrew its fiery dragon breath and instead flapped its wings, flying away into the distance to dodge the cannonball attack.

After all, it is a dragon spirit. How embarrassing would it be if it died at the hands of a human?

It would be better to make a tactical retreat!

"Trying to run? No way!!"

But how could Ye Yuchan let this dragon, which had been chasing her for half a day and almost roasted her back, escape? She immediately poured all her spiritual energy into it, wanting to blast this damned dragon spirit into dust with one shot.

However, before that—

A flying sword descended from the sky.

The spiritual energy of the Lingtai stage transformed into a dazzling golden light that surrounded the flying sword.

The flying sword was so fast that before Ye Yuchan could even press the button to fire the cannonball, it pierced into Long Ling's head.

In an instant, golden light burst forth, and the majestic dragon spirit, its face fierce, gazed into the distance from the sky, letting out a soul-shaking roar of resentment!

Then it slowly turned into specks of dim light and gradually disappeared from everyone's sight.

Ye Yuchan was left standing there, holding the black light hand cannon, completely bewildered.

She asked tentatively.

"Did... does this mean I got my kill stolen?"
