Chapter 582 - Divination (1/2)

”Give me a moment.” Senior Hong went inside the building for a minute before returning with a cart that had a long wooden box resting on it.

”Here's your bow. Check it out.”

Senior Hong opened the box, revealing the beautiful black short bow inside.

Meixiu immediately went to pick up the bow, and to her surprise, was it many times heavier than any bow she has wielded before. However, it wasn't heavy enough to where she couldn't use it.

She proceeded to move the bow around trying to get a feel for it.

”What do you think? If the weight isn't right, I can adjust it for you, but I can only make it lighter since that's already the heaviest I can make it.”

”The weight is perfectly fine. Thank you for this bow.” Meixiu bowed to him in a respectful manner.

”Haha… Don't even mention it. You deserve it. Go ahead, try shooting with it.” Senior Hong handed her an arrow.

Meixiu took the arrow and proceeded to shoot it at a nearby tree.

'Even the string feels so different. It's more durable, and pulling back on it gives me confidence for some reason.' Meixiu thought to herself.

Whoosh!

Meixiu released the string once she got her aim, and the arrow flew in a straight line until it hit her desired location.

”Your bow is very heavy compared to ordinary bows, so it can handle special arrows like this one.” Senior Hong retrieved another arrow.

This time, it was a black arrow that seemed to be made purely out of metal, and the arrow itself weighed a couple of kilos.

Meixiu used this arrow to shoot the same tree.

Whoosh!

The arrow flew straight at the tree, hitting the first arrow she shot before tearing a hole in the tree.

”It went through the tree…” Yuan mumbled in a dazed voice.

However, despite its ridiculous power, Meixiu wasn't that excited. After all, it wasn't like she could use the special arrow for other things besides showing off.

If she had this bow in Cultivation Online, where she could use the special arrow to fight magical beasts, that would be an entirely different story.

”If you're satisfied with the bow, it's yours. I am supposed to have an urgent meeting with the other grand elders and family heads, so I won't stay here any longer.” Senior Hong said to her later.

”An urgent meeting? I hope it's nothing bad.” Yuan said.

”Well… Do you remember the calamity that our ancestors had predicted? Apparently, there are signs of it appearing soon,” Senior Hong explained.

”Calamity? What's going to happen?”

Senior Hong shook his head and said, ”Nobody knows. But if you want to participate in this meeting, you can follow me. If the calamity truly exists, we can definitely use your help.”
