Chapter 506: Chapter 506: Doing Such Shameless Things (3rd Update)
The Giant Eagle desperately flew towards the periphery of the mountain valley, with the Silver Giant Dragon chasing after it from behind, as Yang Xiao rushed out from the mountain valley.
The Giant Dragon was the fastest and quickly caught up to the Giant Eagle; with a huge roar, it unleashed a violent whirlwind that swept towards the Giant Eagle.
Where could the Giant Eagle stand a chance against the Giant Dragon? Its massive body vibrated up and down in the whirlwind, beyond its own control.
Lan Xin sat on the Giant Eagle, gripping her hands tightly onto its feathers.
Only when one is in the midst of it can they truly feel the terror of the Giant Dragon and the intensity of its killing aura.
With a fierce cry, the Giant Eagle’s huge wings shook violently,
Boom!
Countless feathers detached from the Giant Eagle’s body, flying towards the Giant Dragon; all the feathers suddenly ignited, turning into Fiery Feather Arrows.
Yang Xiao saw that half of the sky was practically ablaze.
Lan Xin sat on the back of the Giant Eagle, watching the tens of thousands of burning arrows fly past, her heart deeply shocked.
This was the Giant Eagle’s divine skill, Sky Covering Arrows!
With a roar, the Silver Giant Dragon opened its huge mouth and suddenly spewed out a cloud of white frost, forming a barrier of frost cloud in front of itself.
The Fiery Feather Arrows, which had been piercing through the air, were extinguished as soon as they hit the white frost; the arrows then became encased in ice, falling down one after another.
Most of the feathers on the Giant Eagle had turned into arrows, especially the wing feathers, which were almost completely used up, leaving it powerless to fly.
The Giant Eagle knew it could not escape death. The last divine skill it used was merely to delay the Giant Dragon for a moment, buying a bit more time.
As it released the thousands of arrows, the Giant Eagle violently flung Lan Xin dozens of meters away, then its massive body flapped down towards the forest below.
Lan Xin clenched her teeth, tears in her eyes, and using the Divine Mountain Light Skill, she flew towards the outside of the mountain valley.
Then, she saw Yang Xiao rushing towards her from afar.
Naturally, Yang Xiao also saw Lan Xin.
The two of them slowed down, each stopping at the top of a large tree.
"Yang Xiao!"
"Lan Xin!"
"You’re not dead?"
"Fool, why did you come?"
"Me?"
"Don’t say anything else, run towards the valley, and I’ll stop the Giant Dragon, quick."
Yang Xiao shouted, but Lan Xin just looked at Yang Xiao with a silly smile.
Yang Xiao was stunned,
"Girl, what are you foolishly smiling about? This is a matter of life and death, you should go!"
Lan Xin showed her beautiful white teeth and took Yang Xiao’s hand, saying:
"Yang Xiao, I won’t go. Wherever you go, I’ll follow. I thought you were already dead, but now seeing you alive, I am content. If we are to die, let’s die together; I won’t leave you!"
Suddenly, Lan Xin’s face was filled with happiness.
Yang Xiao was stunned.
When Yang Xiao saw it was Lan Xin, his heart had already been throbbing with excitement. After all, Lan Xin’s disregard for her safety to come looking for him was enough for him to devote a lifetime.
Apart from one’s parents, how many people in the world would give their life for you?
Yang Xiao looked at Lan Xin, gritted his teeth, and said:
"I’m going to save the Giant Eagle. Go and wait for me outside the valley. Consider today a debt I owe you. If I don’t die, I will repay you with my life in the future."
"I don’t want your life; I want you to stay with me for the rest of my life!"
"Fine, as you wish!"
Yang Xiao was impatient to rescue the Giant Eagle and broke away from Lan Xin’s grasp, racing forward.
"Quickly retreat outside the valley, go now!"
With a smile, Lan Xin looked at Yang Xiao’s receding figure and laughed.
The Giant Eagle fell to the ground, almost completely drained of its Qi from the last move, Sky Covering Arrows. Normally, it needed at least three days of rest to slowly recover.
The Giant Dragon landed gently, hovering dozens of meters in front of the Giant Eagle, and looking at the featherless Giant Eagle, it laughed:
"Heh, how hilarious. I never thought you’d become a naked chicken. Eating you in one bite must be delicious. I detest feathers, the feeling of chewing on them is disgustingly awful, which is why I seldom eat birds. Hee hee!"
Right now, the Giant Eagle truly appeared as vulnerable as a plucked chick, and could only glare at the Giant Dragon angrily.
The Giant Dragon seemed to deliberately tease the Giant Eagle, saying:
"Ah, you’re quite a pitiable sight. Once a majestic Giant Eagle, reduced to a mere human mount. You risked your life to save your human master, but your owner has long abandoned you. Do you think it was worth it?"
The Giant Eagle couldn’t speak, it could only look moodily at the Silver Giant Dragon, showing a disdainful expression.
The Silver Giant Dragon turned into a little girl, holding a long silver whip in her hand, and peered at the Giant Eagle with a playful, cheerful expression.
"Heh, you still look at me with disdain. I think it’s embarrassing for you. You could have ruled over a mountain as king, yet you willingly became a slave to humans. You’ve lost face for all animals."
Giant Eagle: "..."
What kind of reasoning is that? How have I lost face for all animals?
"Don’t try looking pitiful, I won’t pity you. Let me think, how shall I eat you later? Eating you raw would be gross. Hmm, barbecued perhaps, turning you into roast chicken. The flavor must be extremely delicious, crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, oh my, I’m starting to drool."
The Giant Eagle, once a hero of its time, now found itself utterly humiliated by the Giant Dragon, and could only close its eyes, letting the Giant Dragon spout such nonsense.
Seeing the Giant Eagle close its eyes and ignore her, the little girl suddenly said in anger,
"Hmph, you’re facing death and still underestimate me? I’ll chop you up right now!"
With that, she raised her long whip and slashed towards the Giant Eagle on the ground.
The silver whip cut through the air like a blade, striking towards the chicken-like Giant Eagle with a fierce Killing Aura.
The Giant Eagle did not resist; any resistance would have been futile.
But just then, a figure rushed over like lightning, and a strong Killing Aura stabbed towards the little girl.
"Don’t hurt my Giant Eagle!"
Yang Xiao roared, descending from above and slashing a sword at the little girl.
The little girl gave a slight yelp, her body flashing back, and the silver whip that was striking towards the Giant Eagle immediately rolled upwards, countering Yang Xiao’s attack.
Yang Xiao, naturally aware of the little girl’s prowess, had only aimed his sword at her as a distraction to save the Giant Eagle, forcing her to retract her whip. Seeing the little girl withdraw the whip, he quickly flew backwards, landing next to the Giant Eagle.
Yang Xiao took out a bottle of Small Blood Pills, poured out the entire contents, about eighty to ninety pills, and stuffed them into the Giant Eagle’s mouth.
At the same time, he yelled toward the distant little girl:
"Stop it, you shameless little swindler!"
The little girl was startled, looking at Yang Xiao, she said angrily:
"Why are you cursing me? I’ll flay you alive today."
"Heh, you’ve got the nerve to ask. I want to know, didn’t you say yesterday that you could take my sword without having to kill me?"
The little girl paused, then said:
"Yes, that’s what I said!"
"You attacked me with Extreme Cold yesterday, and I nearly died. Wasn’t that breaking your promise? You’re a dragon, exalted and worshipped by all as a Divine Beast. How can you go back on your word, doing such shameless things?"
The little girl: "..."
