It's best not to disturb a lion while it's eating.
This principle also held true for the Yuanhou Lion Dance, a being with Divinity Transformation Cultivation near its peak. Even if only a wisp of its divine consciousness had appeared here, it was not something a mere Nascent Soul could provoke.
And so, the instant the crimson Blood Arrow came flying, the lion's head formed from the swarm of silver insects abandoned its feeding on Chu Hongshang and turned toward the blood-colored projectile.
Without a sound, the arrow in which the Bow-holding Nascent Soul had placed so much hope abruptly vanished from before the Yuanhou Lion Dance. When it reappeared, it was already behind the creature.
This wasn't the Yuanhou Lion Dance using some Secret Technique to dodge the arrow. Instead, the arrow seemed to have passed right through space itself, emerging from an entirely different location.
And with that, the Bow-holding Nascent Soul's fate was sealed.
