Chapter 180: This is our root!

Ada\'s archery skills were extremely accurate. The reason Mo Leiwang hadn\'t noticed him earlier was that Zhongshan had lent him a treasure, the Mist-Shrouded God-Sensing Array, which could deceive spiritual senses, making it impossible for Mo Leiwang to detect Ada.

At the moment the arrow was shot towards Shui Tianya, Shui Tianya was waving to the nearly ten thousand people bidding farewell behind him. Although it seemed he was focused on the rear, his attention was actually on his side, and his spiritual sense had long been released without any slack.

Detecting Mo Leiwang in the distance, Shui Tianya\'s heart tightened as he anticipated the long-awaited arrow suddenly being shot.

In the blink of an eye, it arrived in front of him.

This arrow could only harm those at the Golden Core stage. Its speed was slightly faster due to the strong bow, but could it be faster than Shui Tianya\'s Nascent Soul stage spiritual sense?

Adjusting his body slightly in the direction of the arrow, Shui Tianya allowed it to pass through him without causing harm, while simultaneously covering his body with mana to protect himself. There was absolutely no danger.

"Pfft."

The arrow pierced through the deliberately weakened protective energy shield, but its force had already been greatly reduced. However, it still followed Shui Tianya\'s design, piercing through his body directly.

"Pffft~~~~~~~~~~"

A blood bag he had already bitten into burst in his mouth. Shui Tianya\'s face bore a trace of sorrowful smile as he was hit, coughing up blood, and slowly falling down.

"Protect the Master~~~~~~~~"

The cry came from behind.

"Dad~~~~~~~~~~"

Shui Wuheng also cried out in pain, leaping onto the tiger Shui Tianya was standing on and embracing him as he began to fall.

"Capture the assassin~~~~~~~~"

An official suddenly shouted.

"It wasn\'t me who shot the arrow!" Mo Leiwang shouted from midair.

But who would believe that there was absolutely no one there except him? Who else but him had a long arrow identical to the one in Shui Tianya\'s chest? At this moment, it seemed like a well-rehearsed performance. Dozens of experts quickly flew up and surrounded Mo Leiwang, their eyes red with rage, as if they were about to kill him at any moment.

"Drop your weapons and surrender!" shouted an official.

Then, from somewhere, dozens of people holding broken energy arrows suddenly appeared, all pulling their bows and aiming at Mo Leiwang.

Faced with this scene, what else could Mo Leiwang do? He could only surrender. He hoped that his cousin would win, and then it wouldn\'t be difficult for him to be saved. After all, he was truly innocent.

"I didn\'t shoot the arrow! I didn\'t!" Mo Leiwang shouted as he threw down his bow. Mo Leiwang slowly landed, but dozens of bows remained drawn, aimed at him until he was subdued.

At the same time, on the tiger\'s back, Shui Wuheng\'s eyes were bloodshot, as if he had gone mad.

"Hurry, take my dad back and ask for help from the City Dan\'s people to save him, quickly!" Shui Wuheng shouted desperately.

The giant black tiger seemed to understand the situation and quickly headed towards the incoming direction, towards the South City\'s allies.

The environment in the area became extremely chaotic. After the tigers left, the city defense that had restrained Mo Leiwang suddenly turned into a protection for him. Supporters of Shui Tianya rushed forward, swords flying, as if they wanted to tear Mo Leiwang apart.

What was once a city defense against Mo Leiwang suddenly turned into a defense protecting him.

Hundreds of swords flew through the air, and the atmosphere was tense.

"Kill him! He killed Master Shui Tianya!"

"He is Mo Leiwang, the cousin of Mo Baili!"

"Mo Baili stabbed Master Shui Tianya to gain votes. Kill him!"

... Under the calls of these supporters, the crowd became excited, shouting loudly. Mo Leiwang could only shrink back, his face full of fear.

The sudden scene was like a hair\'s breadth away from happening. For some reason, someone recorded it with a memory crystal.

The memory crystal was quickly copied and distributed to various commercial districts. Countless people began to watch the thrilling scene.

The whole city of Wushuang was in an uproar, and even on the other side, when Mo Baili was touring on a tiger, the shouts suddenly decreased, leaving only his supporters.

In the Northern City Alliance, Mr. Shuijing sat in the hall, his brows furrowing slightly as he listened to the cries from outside, feeling a sense of unease.

"Oh no, oh no, sir, sir, Mo Leiwang used a fifth-grade bow and arrow to shoot Shui Tianya dead," Mo Yanbing rushed in from outside, his face full of fear.

"Hmm." Mr. Shuijing suddenly stood up.

"What did you say?" Mr. Shuijing widened his eyes in surprise.

"Sir, this is a memory crystal. It has spread throughout Wushuang City. I don\'t know how it spread so quickly. It happened just an hour ago. Now, there are memory crystals everywhere in Wushuang City," Mo Yanbing said immediately.

Mr. Shuijing grabbed it and, with a release of his true energy, carefully examined it.

As he watched the scene inside, Mr. Shuijing suddenly narrowed his eyes because he noticed something unusual. The arrow speed wasn\'t as fast as a fifth-grade arrow should be, and even if Shui Tianya waved his hand, he shouldn\'t have had no reaction, allowing the arrow to penetrate his body. Also, why was his protective energy shield so weakened?

After viewing everything, Mr. Shuijing suddenly closed his eyes and took a deep breath, sighing heavily.

"Sir, is Shui Tianya dead? Does that mean my father won?" Mo Yanbing suddenly thought of something, and his previous fear turned into excitement.

"Shui Tianya isn\'t dead; he\'s perfectly fine. However, your father has been thoroughly defeated this time," Mr. Shuijing said with a sigh.

"Sir, do you think Shui Tianya did it on purpose? Was he pretending? Fooling the entire city of Wushuang?" Mo Yanbing\'s face showed worry again.

"Yes, he lost, lost catastrophically," Mr. Shuijing sighed lightly.

"Sir, then, we also bribed someone before, let him shoot my dad," Mo Yanbing immediately exclaimed.

"It\'s useless now. Even if you kill your father, it\'s impossible to win again," Shui Jing Xiansheng said as he opened his eyes.

"No, no, why, why?" Mo Yanbing asked with a face full of fear.

Shui Jing Xiansheng shook his head and walked out of the hall. His brows were no longer furrowed, and a rare smile appeared on his face, the smile of someone who had found a kindred spirit, a smile full of anticipation. With a step, he flew towards the city lord\'s mansion in the city.

"No, no, it can\'t be, I must stop them," Mo Yanbing said coldly. But how to stop it?

As Mo Yanbing was worrying, a sound suddenly came from outside. It was Shui Wuheng\'s voice, using a magical tool to project his voice throughout the city, so everyone could hear him.

"Everyone, I am Shui Wuheng, my father is Shui Tianya. My father was attacked, and now he drifts in and out of consciousness. I am speaking on his behalf. The fifth-grade Broken Shield Arrow, a fifth-grade arrow that can pierce the defenses of a powerful master, a blue arrow. We all saw that arrow, but it was too fast to stop. It broke through the shield, pierced the outer armor, then the inner armor, and went straight through my father\'s chest. He fell unconscious immediately.

At that moment, behind us were ten thousand people, all supporting my father. I was born in Wushuang City; I understand it. We\'ve fought against the Dayu Dynasty for over a thousand years, with yearly wars that have killed countless people. Is my father\'s concern wrong? The ten thousand people sending my father off are like him, loving Wushuang City and constantly worried about it. They support my father and wanted to save him, but the arrow was too fast.

I don\'t know where my father\'s concern for Wushuang City went wrong. I only know that without our ancestors\' concerns, Wushuang City would have long been lost. Why, why do some people want to destroy this concern?

The City Dan\'s alchemists checked my father. The arrow is an ice-type arrow, freezing his vital core. Luckily, the alchemists treated him in time. Just a little more, just a little bit more, and... My father has toured ten commercial districts; sixty-two are left. He won\'t have the chance to visit them. The alchemists said he must wake up by the hour of Hai tonight to recover fully. The remaining time means he can\'t campaign anymore. He may lose the chance to compete for city lord, but I know my father\'s determination. Even if he has one breath left, even if he\'s just a gate guard, he will protect Wushuang City. Because this place is our root."

After Shui Wuheng finished speaking, the entire city fell into silence.

"Support Master Shui! Protect Wushuang City!" A voice called out from somewhere.

"Support Master Shui! Protect Wushuang City!"
