Chapter 187: Fear

Soon after.

Dai ZhiShang took one pill—no, he swallowed three Return Yang Pills at once; his aura shifted, and he transformed from his former feeble self into a domineering wolf king, scooping Hu Meiniang up by the waist and walking to a stone table laden with offerings.

With a casual sweep, he brushed the dust and broken bowl off the stone table onto the ground.

He then set Hu Meiniang down on the stone table.

He charged straight ahead!

The Peregrine Falcon Little Gray lay collapsed on the ground, watching Hu Meiniang's retreating back as she was carried away; though Hu Meiniang had already moved away, its whole mind and spirit were overwhelmed by an intense fear.

It was clearly frightened by Hu Meiniang!

Wang Ping'an almost got affected too!

Although.

Hu Meiniang promised Dai ZhiShang she would no longer harm the Peregrine Falcon Little Gray, but who knows if she'll change her mind? Wang Ping'an didn't want to entrust the falcon's life to her.

He quickly used the Beast Taming skill to comfort the Peregrine Falcon Little Gray, slowly dispelling the fear that surged like waves in its heart, wave after wave.

After a long while.

Wang Ping'an managed to dispel most of the Peregrine Falcon Little Gray's fear, but he did not continue using the Beast Taming skill to drive away the remaining fear.

Because he knew these fears had likely taken root in the Peregrine Falcon Little Gray's heart, and without self-defense capability—especially in front of Hu Meiniang—it was hard to completely dispel the fear within it.

Fortunately.

At this moment the Peregrine Falcon Little Gray still felt fear toward Hu Meiniang, but it could barely control its body, possibly also fearing death.

Before Wang Ping'an could use the Beast Taming skill to send a message to the Peregrine Falcon Little Gray to leave, it immediately spread its wings and flew away.

It prepared to leave this place filled with endless fear, while also wanting to return home to receive proper treatment from him—don't think Hu Meiniang didn't harm the Peregrine Falcon Little Gray much.

But its body was already drained like an exhausted oil lamp; if not treated promptly,

it would be in mortal danger!

Hu Meiniang sat on the stone table, hands braced behind her, legs… enjoying Dai ZhiShang's thrusts, yet her peripheral vision still noticed the surroundings.

Who would have thought that a sword apparatus shot out from the Peregrine Falcon Little Gray's body would startle her so?

I never expected the Peregrine Falcon Little Gray, which had just been terrified of her, to recover so quickly and flee while dragging its badly wounded body.

This fear of hers is probably something even ordinary monsters can't break free from, let alone ordinary living beings.

"This little bird is even more mysterious than I imagined!"

Hu Meiniang muttered to herself, a wisp of demonic aura seeping from her fingertips, chasing after the Peregrine Falcon Little Gray as it took flight.

Although the Peregrine Falcon Little Gray is now seriously injured, it is currently exerting all its strength, flying at great speed.

Yet it was quickly caught up by that wisp of demonic aura shot out by Hu Meiniang.

"Clang!"

Just as that wisp of demonic aura was about to seep into the Peregrine Falcon Little Gray's body, a golden barrier appeared behind it, blocking the aura's attack.

It blocked the aura two or three times before the wisp finally shattered the golden barrier.

At that moment.

The Peregrine Falcon Little Gray had already fled, nowhere to be found!

"Interesting, truly quite interesting!"

Hu Meiniang felt a bit disappointed that her wisp of demonic aura hadn't penetrated the Peregrine Falcon Little Gray's body, preventing her from tracking it via that aura, but deep down she was more curious.

Whether it was the sword apparatus shot from the Peregrine Falcon Little Gray's body or the sudden golden barrier behind it, everything indicates that the falcon has a master, and that master must be quite formidable.

I just don't know whether it's a Sword Cultivator or a Talisman Master!

That golden barrier just now, if she didn't mistake it, was likely a Golden Light Talisman, with a talisman box hanging from the Peregrine Falcon Little Gray's neck.

Don't think that the wisp of demonic aura she just shot out is weak just because it's a single strand; in fact, it could match the full-force strike of an ordinary monster.

An ordinary Golden Light Talisman would probably be torn apart in an instant; how could it withstand several strikes from her wisp of demonic aura?

This is enough to prove that the Golden Light Talisman used by the Peregrine Falcon Little Gray is anything but ordinary.

Perhaps.

Perhaps only a Talisman Master could draw such a powerful talisman.

Hu Meiniang silently prayed, 'I don't know if we'll ever get a chance to meet.'

"Ping'an…"

The Wang family—Liu Dongzhu held Wang Ping'an in her arms, about to mutter to herself, when she heard a 'plop!' sound, instinctively turned her head, and saw the Peregrine Falcon Little Gray fall to the ground, rushing over quickly.

This novel you have arrived

"How are you?"

Liu Dongzhu placed Wang Ping'an in the nearby cradle, walked briskly to the Peregrine Falcon Little Gray, opened her mouth instinctively, but before she could finish speaking, she suddenly realized and said:

"It's my foolishness—you can't speak, so why am I asking you?"

As she spoke, Liu Dongzhu quickly examined the Peregrine Falcon Little Gray, and just the first glance startled her.

All she saw was the Peregrine Falcon Little Gray covered head to toe in wounds!

"Who was so cruel as to wound you like this? Stay here a moment, I'll go fetch a doctor to save you!"

Liu Dongzhu got up and left, casually closing the doors of the main hall and the small courtyard.

If it weren't urgent to save the Peregrine Falcon Little Gray, she would never have left Wang Ping'an alone at home no matter what.

She could only run toward the doctor's house while hoping nothing unexpected would happen.

Wang Ping'an watched his mother leave, anxiously running to find a doctor for the Peregrine Falcon Little Gray, feeling deeply moved, knowing his mother regarded the falcon as his lifesaver, which is why she cared so much.

Skills: Blessing Technique, Healing Technique!

Wang Ping'an repeatedly used various skills on the Peregrine Falcon Little Gray, personally seeing pure energy seep into its body, and the next moment even more surrounding spiritual energy was drawn in, enveloping it.

Wang Ping'an immediately employed the Dharma Eye skill, clearly seeing through the spiritual energy shrouding the Peregrine Falcon Little Gray, observing that its injured body was not only being healed.

Moreover, there are signs of advancing to another level!

Time flowed by unnoticed, Wang Ping'an's consciousness came into the World Pearl, repeatedly using the skill on the spirit fruit tree and spirit rice to increase their growth speed; his ears suddenly heard a series of hurried footsteps and a series of anxious voices.

"Wei Langzhong, hurry up, our family's old eagle is waiting for you to save its life!"

"Madam Wang, I'm just an ordinary doctor; when I'm unable to save people, you ask me to save an old eagle— isn't that making things difficult for me?"

"Wei Langzhong, in Hutou Gou you're the only doctor, and you can even treat a sow— saving our family's old eagle is certainly more than enough for you!"

Afterwards.

The tightly closed room was opened, and Liu Dongzhu and Wei Yuan entered one after another.

"Wei Langzhong, you must be sure to carefully save our family's old eagle..."

Liu Dongzhu blurted out subconsciously; before she could finish speaking, Wei Yuan angrily interrupted: "Madam Wang, are you sure your family's old eagle needs my help?"
