Sky Arrow

Turning her head to the direction where the arrow came from, her eyes flashed with a hint of fear.

Standing on the deck of one of the ships was a person wearing blue robes and held a white bow in his hands. The aura he released made her feel a lot of pressure.

The man was also staring at Zhu Feiying, a bit of fear appearing in his eyes as well. He couldn't comprehend how this girl was flying in the air and manipulating fire.

He couldn't see her face, but he could tell that this girl was quite young.

"Everyone get ready! This person isn't simple, scatter the ships and don't make them side by side. From my judgment, she can only attack in a straight line when she uses that move!"

"Yes sir!" Everyone around him shouted.

"Let's see if you can get through all my ships." The man said, and pulled the bowstring and fired the next arrow.

Zhu Feiying didn't sit still and started to move around in unpredictable ways. She was like a dancing phoenix soaring through the sky, but as she moved, she kept on getting higher and higher in the air.

The man's shouts also sounded in Zhu Feiying's ears. She knew that she had no time to line up and strike all the ships at once like she did beforehand. 

Once she could see all the ships at once in the air, she spread her wings wide and shouted, "Raining Fire!" 

A bunch of tiny droplets of fire came shooting out of her Phoenix Wings and landed on the wooden decks. To the people below, they truly felt that it was fire raining from hell.

"Suppress the fire!" The man with the bow shouted.

"General Shu, she is shooting out too many! Not to mention us, the other ships are probably struggling as well!" One of General Shu's subordinates said.

General Shu could only groan at his subordinated words and lock his eyes on Zhu Feiying in the sky.

"Leave her to me then." He said, and raised his bow.

"Yes sir!"

General Shu's eyes narrowed and locked onto Zhu Feiying's figure in the air and shot his arrow, but right when he shot his arrow, he quickly leaped into the air and landed on his arrow. As he landed on the arrow, his bow changed into a sword that hummed as it glided through the air.

"What?" Zhu Feiying cried in surprise. 

She didn't think that anyone could actually fly in such a unique way.

Seeing the man getting closer and closer to her, she put away the Raining Fire and narrowed her wings and clenched her fist and bolted straight at the man.

"Phoenix Strike!" 

Back at the main headquarters of the Eastern Heaven, the five generals watched as they saw a man ascending in the air by standing on the air and a fiery figure that almost looked like a meteor descending clashing with each other. 

"It seems that their generals are making a move. We should watch out for any sneak attacks on our back lines and we should send our Warriors out to sea immediately." General Guang said, and the four other generals nodded their heads.

"What about Zhu Feiying? General Shu has the nickname of Sky Arrow after all." Qin Yan said with some worry.

General Dong shook his head.

"Don't worry about her, although he can fly by stepping on his arrows, he's very limited on how he can fly. Your partner has full control in the air, and all she should do is dodge his attacks while attacking from range. After all, when he steps on his arrows, he loses all benefits from being an archer."

Qin Yan nodded as the arrows for their soldiers started to fire at the ones who were stranded at sea.

***

Zhu Feiying clashed against General Shu sword in the air, and felt a tremendous force attacking her arm, causing her to back out of the fight.

"Girl, you might have good power, but you can't focus it all into one straight brutal attack right? You also lack the physical capabilities to hold such power." General Shu said, as he laughed and changed his weapon back to a bow and shot another arrow at Zhu Feiying and jumped on it.

"Hmph, so what? Me alone can take down all your ships!" She said, dodging him in the air.

General Shu kept on shooting arrows at Zhu Feiying while hopping back and forth from each one.

"Although true, you're still very weak." He said, loading up a pair of three arrows.

Drawing his bow, a faint white glow appeared on the arrow tips, and when he released it, the three arrows shot at Zhu Feiying at speeds that broke the sound barrier.

She barely had any time to react, and moved barley to the right, only to be grazed by an arrow on her cheek. 

Feeling the warmth on her cheek, she couldn't help but to swallow hard.

'Damn, was that the true power of internal strength?' She thought to herself, and her vigilance increased when she looked at General Shu.

She flew higher in the air and away from her enemy. 

General Shu felt a little bad. It wasn't easy for him to gain height, but it was easy for him to move straight; of course he could shoot an arrow straight up, but he couldn't jump on it as that would pierce his own foot, and he had to have it at an angle where he could stand on it. 

'Damn, this girl…' 

He kept on shooting a bunch of arrows in the air, scattering them around as he hopped from on to another like a frog. Although this wasted a lot of arrows, he couldn't let Zhu Feiying get another attack on their ships.

Looking at the man who was jumping like a frog below her, Zhu Feiying let out a small chuckle and put away her Phoenix Wings.

Right when she put away her Phoenix Wings, General Shu raised his guard and was ready to defend any attack she sent his way, but after waiting for a couple of seconds, he only saw Zhu Feiying fall all the way down past him and back down to the boats.

"Oh shit." He muttered, and realized he messed up.
