Yaksha Archer Lesser Yaoguais
Description
In the past, the 
Yaksha King was betrayed by the celestial beings, leading to the massacre of the royal family and the downfall of the Yaksha Kingdom. After the kingdom’s collapse, the yakshas were forced into exile. The archers, who once guarded the royal entourage, clung to their former glory and refused to shed their ornate armor. Despite their exceptional archery skills, their slow shooting speed and lack of close combat abilities made their exile particularly harsh.
Due to their inadequate combat strength, they resorted to ambushes from the shadows. The abbot assigned them to the Pagoda Realm for rigorous training. They endured daily torment, especially when the Wheel of Dharma played its enchanting melodies, driving everyone mad. During these times, the 
Blade Monks would seize the opportunity to behead them with their large blades. Desperate, the yaksha archers sought ways to fight back.
They sought guidance from various sources and frequently challenged the Blade Monks, only to be defeated repeatedly. One day, a blind monk from the monastery visited the Pagoda Realm. These monks had blinded themselves to pursue the path to ultimate bliss, yet their martial arts were incredibly refined. The yaksha archers asked for his advice, and the monk replied, “You aim too carefully, losing the initiative. Learn from me; gouge out your eyes, and you will shoot from the heart, never missing your mark.”
Having no other options, the archers tried this drastic measure, gouging out their eyes and adopting new, resonant names. After this, the Blade Monks rarely bullied them. When asked why, a Blade Monk replied, “Who wants to fight madmen? It’s safer to find another opponent.”
Poetry
The sound of the bowstring startles, arrows fly and chaos ensues.
Blind eyes for a clear heart, good beginnings are hard to conclude.
