"Three God-given powers beneficiaries plus a phantom beast modification expert." Liu Zhenhuan slowly exhaled a breath of cool air, "The number of God-given powers beneficiaries on the Silk Continent is really terrifying! In Aegean that we know of, there’s only Xiao Bei, and it seems only the Mermaids, famous for their domain barriers, might match the quantity and quality of the Silk Continent’s beneficiaries."
"Both the True Monarch and the Jade Emperor are my enemies." Xiao Kong angrily kicked the pebble on the ground, "Back then, the True Monarch almost transformed me into a useless waste filled with Gangqi! Damn it, the spore mist covering area was too large, bullying someone like me who specializes in close-quarters combat."
"The Saint Hero is talking about the old issues again, still the grudges of the martial world...sigh...actually, what our government least wants to see is this kind of grudge! Fortunately, these four grassroots emperors are still sensible, without any serious misconduct. Although our government is a bit uncomfortable with it, we can’t just cause trouble over a small bandit name." The Fifth Prince shrugged, glancing at Xiao Kong, then at Lao Liu, "Haha...it’s not because a familiar face is here today that I’m talking ; humanoid divine beasts are indeed a notable group, our government is also afraid of being overly aggressive and backfiring, after all, we now have divine beasts serving our government, we can’t make it like when the rabbit dies, the fox grieves! Just like that Three-eyed True Monarch, his relationship with our government is quite good, relying on his Gangqi modification ability, we’ve trained quite a few Arrow Gang archers!"
"Mu Jie Feng?" Liu Zhenhuan squinted at the Fifth Prince, "So your Arrow Gang is all about Three-eyed True Monarch’s modifications? How come this guy isn’t modifying magic power but Gangqi? Is there some connection between spore gas and Gangqi?" Tʜe source of this ᴄontent ɪs novelFɪre.net
"Not entirely, the theory of Arrow Gang is already mature on the Silk Continent, and our enemies, the Juerong Barbarians, also have such archers. True Monarch’s modification ability indeed helped us a bit, but we don’t entirely depend on him." The Fifth Prince shook his head like a rattle drum, "Why does True Monarch only modify Gangqi and not mana, I’m not quite sure! For us, there’s only one situation that requires asking for True Monarch’s help---------- for example, if we have archers who can’t cultivate Wood-element Gangqi, but can cultivate other types of Gangqi, such situations are just right for True Monarch to transform into Arrow Gang!"
"I want to meet this True Monarch." Liu Zhenhuan took a deep breath, "Fifth Prince, can you do me a favor, persuade this True Monarch to help me, ask some of his people to modify some archers for our Beamon! Modify archers who can use Mu Jie Feng, who can use Arrow Gang! Our House tribe divine archers have many masters controlling wind speed through arrow speed!"
"House archers?" The Fifth Prince was a bit puzzled, was His Majesty foolish, archers need to cultivate elemental power to be suitable for modification, Summer Palace Guards archers purely rely on technique, what would they modify?
"That’s right, House archers, and Musketeer archers, including some Elves archers under my command." Liu Zhenhuan reiterated his words, a flash of inspiration just triggered a new idea.
"Then please follow me to Mulan City, Your Majesty, I don’t think True Monarch would refuse me." Although the Fifth Prince couldn’t guess what Flower King His Majesty was thinking, he tactfully decided not to ask further.
"Father King! I want to go find the True Monarch and the Jade Emperor too! I think it’s time to settle accounts with them!" Xiao Kong fiercely waved his fist.
"Enough! Xiao Kong, haven’t you learned restraint yet?" The mysterious robust Prince, with eyes closed, meditating for a while, couldn’t help but speak out against the chief apprentice’s murderous aura, "So many lives disappeared at your hands; do you not feel any remorse?"
Xiao Kong’s face was filled with immense pain, this kind of lecture, once started, it never ends. The Buddhist Giant was , and so was the mysterious robust Prince.
"Forget it, Saint Hero, let bygones be bygones with a smile; fourteen years have passed by! Back in the day, you were also a famed hero, not inferior to True Monarch or Jade Emperor, and now with Flower King’s backing, why bother to fuss with them?" The Fifth Prince seemed to admire Xiao Kong very much, "Actually, what I most admire about you, Saint Hero, is this: how among the four great grassroots emperors, not one wasn’t flocked by followers? Yet in those days, you were solitary and still held your own against them; it’s truly a legendary tale!"
Xiao Kong, being praised by the Fifth Prince, reminiscing about his past encounters, felt not joy but deep sadness.
Did he ever hope to be a lone ranger? Did he not want to form an army of three thousand Flower Knights? But the Imperial Daughter Flower army simply couldn’t be organized---------it wasn’t that there wasn’t enough gold, the Jing Gold long rods he painstakingly collected weighed as much as one hundred and eight thousand pounds, enough to guarantee three thousand Flower Knights’ gilding needs.
The problem was that the density of Jing Gold was too high, a grain-sized piece weighed ten pounds!
When Yew Arrow archers donned gilded armor and used "Golden Appearance" to self-plate the golden arrows, no matter how the craftsmanship controlled the thickness of gold leaf, the gilded arrow made from Jing Gold was still a bit too heavy!
Each Jing Gold heavy arrow weighed as much as two to three pounds, almost the weight of a bamboo spear; how many steps could an ordinary war bow shoot such a heavy arrow? How could the accuracy be guaranteed? The "Golden Appearance" suspended bow control could not contribute to increasing the range at all!
