Cultivation Simulator: Shocking the Academy-Chapter 503 - 356 Assassination

"How... how do you know these things?" Li Xin looked at Luo Chen, her face full of disbelief and her mind brimming with confusion.

"That’s not important." Luo Chen waved his hand, "Quick, tell me the location of the supply camp."

"From this direction, about a hundred feet to the left of the largest tent, the row of gray tents by the lake is it." Li Xin pointed ahead, "But it’s heavily guarded there, sneaking in is impossible."

"Who said I’m going to sneak in?" Luo Chen chuckled, a sly glint flashing in his eyes, "Give me your longbow."

"Give you my longbow?" Li Xin looked at Luo Chen with surprise, as if she had heard the funniest joke in the world, "What do you want with my longbow?"

"Miss, your arm is injured now, holding the longbow is just for show." Luo Chen’s tone carried a hint of teasing, "Instead of it being an ornament in your hands, give it to me, and maybe it can serve a purpose."

Li Xin thought for a while and felt that Luo Chen’s words made sense. She hesitated for a moment and finally handed the longbow to Luo Chen, "Why are you helping me?"

Luo Chen took the longbow, a mischievous smile appearing on his face, "Because I like you. Is that reason good enough?"

Li Xin froze at his words, her cheeks flushing slightly. She glared at him and muttered, "Here you go again, always trying to take advantage of me."

Luo Chen laughed heartily, gently caressing the longbow as if feeling its temperature and soul, "No more jokes. Actually, I’m helping you because I have some matters to resolve, and those matters don’t conflict with your goals."

Li Xin was silent for a while, then slowly nodded, "I understand. So, what do you plan to do?"

"Watch and see." Luo Chen smiled slightly, gripping the longbow tightly, his gaze firmly set on the distant camp, "Tonight, a good show will unfold."

Night fell, stars sparkling. Holding the longbow, Luo Chen’s figure quietly melted into the night. He moved like an agile leopard, silently approaching his target. Meanwhile, Li Xin hid behind a distant sand dune, nervously watching Luo Chen’s every move.

Luo Chen stopped not far from the camp, took a deep breath, and slowly raised the longbow. His gaze became exceptionally sharp, seemingly able to pierce through the night and straight to the enemy’s heart.

Suddenly, he released the string, and an arrow shot out like a meteor, piercing the night sky, heading straight for the camp. Immediately, a commotion and exclamations erupted from within the camp.

Seeing this, Li Xin couldn’t help but widen her eyes, her heart filled with shock and admiration. She knew Luo Chen’s shot wasn’t just to create chaos but was also a demonstration of his skill and determination.

The ensuing events unfolded exactly as Luo Chen anticipated. With his exceptional archery skills and clever strategy, he successfully subdued the enemies in the supply camp one by one. Throughout the process, he wasn’t hurt, not even shedding a drop of blood.

When Luo Chen returned to Li Xin’s side, her eyes were filled with admiration and gratitude, "You’re amazing! Thank you for helping me complete this task."

Luo Chen smiled slightly, shaking his head, "No need to thank me. We each have our needs and are merely helping each other." Then he returned the longbow to Li Xin.

The two exchanged smiles, as if all the distance and misunderstandings vanished at that moment. They stood side by side, leaving two steadfast silhouettes under the starlight.

Under the night sky, Li Xin shyly nodded, tacitly acknowledging Luo Chen’s teasing. With a slight curve of his lips, Luo Chen casually said, "Because you have beautiful legs." Upon hearing this, Li Xin’s face flushed again, glaring at him as she was left speechless. Unperturbed, Luo Chen continued nonchalantly, "However, there’s just a bit too much hair..."

This remark ignited Li Xin’s anger like a match, but before she could react, Luo Chen’s figure had already disappeared into the darkness, leaving her standing there furious, teeth clenched, trembling with rage. Clenching her fists, she vowed to turn the tables.

Meanwhile, Luo Chen was in an extremely cheerful mood. He had endured Li Xin’s cold sneers for days, and finally, he had an opportunity to make her taste his prowess. Moving swiftly in the dark, he didn’t rush directly to the lakeside tent but took a wide detour to ensure his actions wouldn’t be discovered.
