Chapter 155: Hou Yi

——Boom!
In the moment when the meteor-like wooden arrow collided with the magic light, a devastating power erupted, forming a mushroom-shaped cloud of flames rising slowly in the sky.
"Who did the Black Grandpa summon?"
Ling Chengfeng, Lu Xiaoqi and others were startled, they squinted their eyes, strong hurricane poured down from above their heads, making it difficult for people to keep their eyes open.
Dimly, they could make out a towering man, wrapped in tiger skins, adorned with gold jewelry, carrying a quiver of animal-skin bow and arrows, standing firm in the hurricane, immovable and majestic.
"Houyi!"
Before Ling Chengfeng and his companions could see the face of the iron tower man clearly, the Queen Mother of the West in the sky screamed out the man's name with a tone of anger.
The pitch-black demon light once again shot out from the palm of the Queen Mother of the West, with sparkling starlight shining within it, as if a Milky Way was hidden inside.
With neither haste nor delay, Hou Yi reached into his quiver and took out a plain wooden arrow. He notched it onto the string of his bow and with a quick bounce, he released the arrow.
"Roar!"
As the wooden arrow was launched from the bowstring, the air vibrated and pulled forth a snarling dragon from the void. The dragon appeared suddenly, with a massive head like a mountain, glaring fiercely with bared teeth, as if it could devour the terrible demonic light.
The mushroom-shaped fiery black clouds had not dissipated yet, and the magical light collided with the dragon again.
The dragon, formed by the arrows, swallowed the magical light shot by the Queen Mother of the West, went forward to meet the challenge, twisted its body, followed the clue and slowly approached the Queen Mother of the West.
The crimson gem on the forehead of the Queen Mother of the West suddenly shot out a thin blood-red ray, forming into a fierce-looking demon with three heads and six arms in mid-air.
The body of the demon was not as huge as that of the divine dragon, but it was extremely ferocious. On its six arms, it held six different ancient weapons, including knives, guns, cudgels, clubs, axes, and chains, and rushed towards the divine dragon like a whirlwind, launching a crushing attack on it.
Below, Houyi looked up at the divine dragon with an unchanged expression as it was consumed by the demonic light, only to be relentlessly torn apart by the demonic god, causing the agonized cries of the dragon to echo.
Fortunately, it was all just a manifestation of divine power and not a real existence. The torn body of the dragon dissipated in the air, otherwise, the shattered remains of the divine dragon falling down could bury the entire city of C.
Just then, the image of the Queen Mother of the West, who had been far away in the sky, flickered and suddenly disappeared from her original location. The next moment, she appeared behind Hou Yi and resolutely launched a sneak attack.
However, Hou Yi was well prepared. The moment the Queen Mother of the West appeared, a turtle shell-like illusion suddenly appeared on his back, with yin and yang eight trigrams in the center, perfectly resisting the Queen Mother of the West's attack.
"Houyi!"
Xi Wangmu roared, and a crimson light shone once again from the center of her eyebrows. The blood light illuminated Hou Yi's body, dyeing him red. In the next moment, the two ancient deities disappeared again from the sight of the crowd.
The sky still roared endlessly, and the three-headed and six-armed demon was still slaughtering dragons. The injured Jingwei could not just watch the demon slay the divine dragon, so she gritted her teeth and revealed her true form, and continued the battle.
"What about Queen Mother of the West and Houyi?"
Ling Chengfeng and the others finally managed to fully open their eyes, surveying the current environment and observing the situation.
"The situation is not optimistic now, the great god Houyi has been taken by Queen Mother of the West to another timeline."
黑爷爷面色严肃，有些不安的说：“那个时空应该是西王母的主战场，在她的战场中，后羿大神要对付她就更加的吃力了。”
“What should we do?”
Lin Chengfeng and others became anxious. The arrival of Hou Yi could be seen as a desperate move, a last-ditch effort. If they lost again, the people of Earth would be truly at their wits' end.
"Can't help it."
Black Grandpa tried to appear calm and composed, staring deeply into the void, trying to catch any trace of the battle between Queen Mother of the West and Hou Yi.
Unfortunately, he looked for a long time and had no harvest.
“We can only choose to believe in the great god Houyi now. In a battle that has reached their level, not only us, even the sea goddess Jingwei can't intervene.”
Black Grandpa continued to explain, "Queen Mother of the West has always held the power of punishment and execution from ancient times to the present, making her the most brutal and terrifying goddess in our world."
"As for the great god Hou Yi, he was originally the top archery expert by the side of the Heavenly Emperor, and had made great contributions many times. After the Heavenly Emperor left, Hou Yi became the leader of the last remaining human race in our world and the guardian deity of the world."
"In terms of status, Queen Mother of the West is actually one level higher than Hou Yi the Great God, but in terms of strength, there is not much difference between the two."
"Just wait, the result will be available soon…"
Black Grandpa hadn't finished speaking yet, when a huge rift suddenly opened in the distant sky, like an eye spanning the horizon slowly opening, emitting a strong white light.
How can the world be unfair? I have Mr. Xian protecting me!
With a huge roar, Queen Mother of the West was chased by nine golden dragons from the Heavenly Eye. She looked very embarrassed and injured, dodging left and right but nowhere to escape.
Hou Yi, the Great God, followed closely behind. He only had three arrows left in his quiver, and looked a bit tired.
Nine golden five-clawed dragons are chasing and attacking the Queen Mother of the West, like nine dragons playing with pearls, constantly attacking her and completely suppressing her.
No matter how much the Queen Mother of the West howls or roars, she cannot get rid of the nine golden dragons entanglement. The space she is in is bound by divine power, and she cannot teleport, completely trapped.
On the other side, Houyi calmly lifted his longbow and drew out a wooden arrow from his quiver, which only had three arrows left. He lightly placed the arrow on the dragon tendon-woven bowstring from his back.
"Yah!"
Xi Wangmu sensed something was wrong and let out an ear-piercing scream.
Her phoenix crown exploded once again, and behind her, it turned into a black hole. The crimson gemstone hung on her chest, spinning incessantly.
Xi Wangmu wanted to retreat into the black hole to avoid Houyi's attack.
The Nine-Five-Clawed Golden Dragon was all bounced away by the black hole, but then quickly roared and turned to attack the black hole, trying to bite it, but was blocked by the tentacle-like mist at the edge of the black hole and unable to approach.
Xi Wangmu's lips curved into a sly smile as she faced Hou Yi, and her body melted like water, slowly merging into the black hole behind her.
The Nine-Fanged Gold Dragon stopped abruptly when it realized it couldn't get close to the black hole. Then, opening its mouth, it let out a roar and began biting its companions' tails. With their heads and tails intertwined, the nine golden dragons wrapped around each other, forming a circle that surrounded the black hole.
At first glance, the black hole became the center point, with a larger and more glittering golden wheel surrounding it. Golden lightning-like traces appeared one by one in the void, filling the blank spaces of the golden wheel composed of nine golden dragons, and connecting it to the black hole around it.
Suddenly, Xi Wangmu, who was disappearing into the black hole, came to a stop. Two-thirds of her body had already retreated into the black hole, leaving only her face, half of her chest, her hands, and feet outside.
She was restrained by the Nine-Dragon Golden Wheel and could not move.
With narrowed eyes, Hou Yi aimed at the crimson gemstone that was blocking the way to the Queen Mother of the West. He released the arrow from the bowstring with a flick of his fingers.
——Swoosh!
This time it was very calm, the arrow turned into a black shadow as it left the bowstring, without any magical transformations, it appeared directly in front of the ruby, the sharp arrowhead piercing the front of the gem, sparks flying.
"No!"
Xi Wangmu suddenly screamed in a distorted face.
Under the strong pressure of the wooden arrow, a strange red gemstone showed tiny cracks, which gradually expanded and eventually shattered.
Splat!
The wooden arrow that smashed the gemstone pierced through the chest of Xi Wangmu without hesitation and disappeared into the black hole.
After a while, the black hole on the back of Xi Wangmu's chest also shook and then a huge gap cracked open. Her bright eyes suddenly dimmed and lost their luster.
"Hoo..."
后羿松了口气，将握着长弓的臂膀放下，从空中降落到地面，来到黑爷爷等人面前，显得十分虚弱。
“后羿大神！”
Black Grandpa and other creatures from the world of mountains and seas immediately surrounded him, with concerned expressions on their faces.
As Hou Yi's eyes swept over the faces of the people present, he suddenly broke into a brilliant smile, raised his fist above his head and shouted, "It's over!"
The crowd was stunned, and everyone couldn't believe that the brutal war had just ended.
It wasn't until people realized that Xi Wangmu was indeed no longer moving that they one by one snapped out of it, their faces bursting with surprise, excitement, and enthusiasm.
"Wow!"
The crowd started cheering and shouting in celebration of the arrival of victory.
Boom!
However, amidst the waves of cheers, a sudden thunderous roar came from the sky.
Then, an evil aura swept over like a storm, and Hou Yi's smile froze on his face, his eyes revealing a look of disbelief.
