Chapter 119: Shou De's Legacy, Yu Jian Sees Hou Yi!

  "What did you say? Are you Hou Yi? Don't try to fool me! I'm not a fool, Hou Yi was a powerful figure from ancient times, how could he possibly be alive now?"

  As soon as he heard those words, Qin Shou was indeed shocked. But after thinking about it for a moment, he knew something was off. He looked around in all directions, but couldn't find the speaker's figure anywhere.

  "That's right, that voice seems to be coming from the air." As soon as he thought of this, Qin Shou suddenly raised his head. But immediately afterwards, he exclaimed, "What! How is that possible!"

  Those bows floating in the air seemed to be worshiping their king. Right in the middle of them was the Hou Yi Bow that had disappeared earlier, and it too had become quiet. Because the Hou Yi Bow was being held by someone, and this person was naturally the one who had spoken earlier.

  "That's right, young one. You've seen me too. I am Hou Yi, the original owner of this bow. And you are the one chosen by this bow to inherit it. I have been observing you since you came in." The man who claimed to be Hou Yi said.

  "What? You're Hou Yi? Is this real or fake? How did you live for so long?" Qin Shou asked curiously.

  The Hou Yi that Qin Shou saw was a middle-aged man in his thirties. His black hair was thick and dense, simply tied back behind him. He wore simple clothes, almost like a savage. His face was rough, but it only served to highlight his masculinity.

  The most striking thing is definitely Hou Yi's pair of eyes. Those sharp eyes are sharper than any hawk. It seems that his eyes are sharp arrows, and nothing can stop his gaze.

  "Heh heh...... I naturally can't live that long, what's in front of you is just a wisp of my lingering soul. This wisp of my lingering soul is attached to the Hou Yi bow, when my successor appears, I will make an appearance."

  Hou Yi spoke again, but this time Qin Shou really believed that the person in front of him was Hou Yi. There wasn't much good evidence, just intuition, because of those eyes. Qin Shou looked up, quietly listening to Hou Yi's words.

  Looking at Qin Shou's appearance, Hou Yi flashed and appeared on the ground. At the same time, not only did Hou Yi's bow come down, but also those bows floating in the air all fell to the ground.

  "When you first arrived here, facing danger, you took out the Hou Yi Bow, this is trust in the Hou Yi Bow. Then after that suction came out, your hands tightly grasped the Hou Yi Bow, this is reluctance to part with the Hou Yi Bow. When you felt the Hou Yi Bow's longing for what was inside, but you voluntarily gave up the Hou Yi Bow, satisfying the Hou Yi Bow's thoughts, this is cherishing the Hou Yi Bow."

  Hou Yi smiled and said, "Based on the above three points, I'm quite satisfied with your character as a successor. The Hou Yi Bow is indeed worthy of its name, and the person you've chosen isn't bad either."

  After hearing Hou Yi's praise, Qin Shou smiled awkwardly. Young people always have a certain vanity, let alone the person in front of him is the first divine shooter in ancient times. Getting praised by such a person, Qin Shou's excitement can be imagined.

  "Later, you want to get all the bows here, it's indeed a greedy young man." Hou Yi looked at Qin Shou with a smile that was not quite a smile. Qin Shou pretended to cough, using this to cover up his awkwardness.

  "Haha... You're really an interesting kid, being greedy isn't bad, is it? Human nature is to be greedy, as long as you don't do anything bad, I won't say anything about you. However, these bows can't all be given to you, so don't complain that I'm stingy again, it's not that I don't want to give them to you, but these bows have their own value, you'll understand in a bit."

  Hou Yi nodded his head, and continued to speak, "I've seen your archery skills. Although your martial arts realm is really too low, your archery skills are not bad. Your passion for archery, your innate talent for it, I acknowledge them all. Overall, I'm quite satisfied with you as a successor."

  "Really? Are these your conditions? Have I satisfied you already?" Qin Shou asked with a strange tone.

  Hou Yi looked at Qin Shou with curiosity, nodded slightly, "Hmm, although some parts are not quite satisfactory, but overall I still recognize you as the successor. What do you want to say?"

  Qin Shou rubbed his hands together, "Heh heh... Since I've already met your conditions, shouldn't you also meet mine? Speak up, if I become your successor, what can I gain from it? Simply put, what benefits will I get for my future?"

  Hou Yi was taken aback, really couldn't think that he would actually meet such an extreme inheritor. Thinking of Hou Yi, in the ancient years when he was rampant, no one dared to discuss any conditions with him. But unexpectedly, now a martial artist who is about to reach the extreme realm dares to propose conditions to him.

  "Do you know how many people in ancient times wanted to obtain my legacy, but what's wrong with you? You actually dare to set conditions for me? Doesn't my reputation as Hou Yi still qualify me to teach you?" Hou Yi said displeased.

  "That... isn't it, you've thought so much about it, and yet you want me to be your successor. And I, Qin Shou, can't be that miserable, at least let me see your true skills. Don't mention being the number one divine archer of ancient times, those are all things from many years ago, how do I know if they're real or fake?" Qin Shou said with a rogue's tone.

  "Brute?" Hou Yi's forehead seemed to rise with three black lines, "I didn't expect that you not only have a special personality, but also such a strange name. I'm starting to regret it, letting you inherit my legacy, was it right or wrong?"

  "No, no, no, don't even think about it. You've seen it yourself, a successor as good as me isn't easy to find. If you don't accept me, maybe many, many years later, you still won't have found a successor."

  Qin Shou waved his hand, joking that he could accept Hou Yi's inheritance, what a great opportunity it was. If because of his big mouth, Hou Yi would regret it, then he might as well go smash himself to death with a block of tofu.

  "Hmm... you're quite an interesting kid. Come on, accept my legacy! Time is pressing, can't waste any more time."

  Hou Yi's face turned serious, the playful expression had completely disappeared. He stretched out his hands, and Qin Shou only felt a surge of great power coming over him. Amidst Qin Shou's astonished cry, Qin Shou's entire body flew into the air, then floated there.

  "What are you doing? I was just joking, don't punish me like this!" Qin Shou's body floated in mid-air, unable to move.

  "Don't be silly, you're overthinking it. How could I possibly treat you like an ordinary person? Calm your mind and focus your spirit, let go of all distractions. Concentrate on receiving my legacy!"

  Hou Yi's words seemed to carry a strange power. Qin Shou also closed his eyes, all distractions disappeared, leaving only the bow and arrow. Hou Yi also flew up, standing in mid-air opposite Qin Shou.

  "Successor, I am Hou Yi. Today, I will pass on all my archery skills and experiences to you. As for your future achievements, it's up to you now. I hope you won't tarnish the reputation of Hou Yi and become the greatest divine archer of our time!"

  Between Hou Yi and Qin Shou, a golden path was formed. Hou Yi's expression was solemn, his eyes fixed on Qin Shou. "I hope you can bear it, don't let me down!"

  In the palace.

  "Are you referring to this throne? Where is the mechanism? Where is the transmission gate?" Shangguan Yu carefully examined the throne in front of him, but he didn't find anything different.

  "That's right, this is the ancestral throne. Your companion is the successor of Hou Yi, and he should be transmitted from here. However, he has the bow of Hou Yi in his hand, so he can enter naturally. But we don't have the bow of Hou Yi, how can we get in?" Jiao Xiaolong said with difficulty.

  "Is it impossible to get in without the Hou Yi's bow? I don't believe that, there must be a way. Think carefully, I'll search again. There should be a way, we have to get in. Inheriting this kind of thing may be dangerous, perhaps Qin Shou is waiting for me to rescue him."

  Shangguan Yu furrowed his brow, staring intently at the throne, and began to carefully feel around on it, perhaps there was a mechanism or something on the seat. Seeing Shangguan Yu like this, Jiao Xiaolong could only helplessly think.

  "Have you thought of a solution?" Shangguan Yu looked at Jiao Xiaolong, "Looking at your expression, I know you haven't thought of one. You'd better go ask your ancestor, maybe he'll have a way. What are you still standing here for?"

  "There's definitely no way." Feeling the puzzled gaze of Shangguan Yu, Jiao Xiaolong immediately explained, "As for these things, my ancestors have already told me everything. What I don't know now, my ancestors are also definitely unaware of."

  "What should I do? I can't just abandon Qin Shou!" Suddenly, Shangguan Yu's eyes lit up, "I've got it! Since we can't find the treasure seat, then I'll destroy this treasure seat. If the treasure seat is destroyed, shouldn't some mechanism or transmission gate appear?"

  Before Jiao Xiaolong could stop him, Shangguan Yu had already punched the throne. With a loud "bang", the throne was fine, but Shangguan Yu's fist was dripping with blood.

  Hou Yi's eyes snapped open, "This bloodline's aura is his! Alright, I'll let you in, let's see what his bloodline is like!"

  Shangguan Yu hadn't even had time to curse when a blindingly bright golden light suddenly shot out from the throne. In Jiao Xiaolong's astonished gaze, he and Shangguan Yu were both enveloped by the golden light.

  When Shangguan Yu opened his eyes again, he saw the scene in front of him. A middle-aged man with piercing eyes was smiling at him, and opposite that man was Qin Shou.

  "Who are you? What are you doing? Let go of Qin Shou quickly!" Shangguan Yu shouted at Hou Yi.

  "My successor and his descendants are actually connected? Things are getting more interesting." Hou Yi muttered, then said a sentence that made Shangguan Yu stunned on the spot.

  "I am Hou Yi, have you heard of me?"
