Chapter 87: The Troublemaking Little Immortal

"Is that so? It seems you have chosen death, then go ahead and die!"

Seeing him being stubborn, Su Chen remained expressionless, the force in his right hand increasing by a few degrees.

With his left hand, he gave its head two more loving slaps.

"Ouch... No~ no~ no, Big Brother, I won't put on an act anymore, I'm laying my cards on the table, I surrender, is that not enough?"

Seeing this, the little fellow instantly caved and hurriedly begged for mercy: "Aren't you just making me acknowledge you as master? Fine, from now on you are my boss, and I will listen to you in everything."

The little fellow felt such regret in its heart; why had it been so hot-headed as to challenge this terrifying devil? This devil didn't play by the rules at all.

"Open your Consciousness Sea!" Su Chen coldly snorted.

"Mm," the little fellow replied with a face full of helplessness, but it still agreed.

Immediately, Su Chen released a wisp of pure Divine Sense into its Consciousness Sea.

Suddenly, a massive amount of information surged into Su Chen's mind.

It turned out that this little fellow was truly a descendant of an ancient Dragon, and he had picked up a great treasure this time.

A moment later, he released the little fellow and said indifferently: "From now on, you shall be called Xiaoxian!"

"Xiaoxian?"

The little fellow blinked its eyes, seemingly very satisfied with the name, and began to dance with joy, "Hee hee, I have a name now, Xiaoxian is such a nice-sounding name."

Luo Shen and Lv Luo couldn't help but smile when they saw Xiaoxian so happy.

Although it was of the Dragon Race and possessed the most top-tier bloodline, it had, after all, just broken out of its shell and was full of curiosity about the outside world, so it was inevitable that it still had some childlike innocence.

————————

Two days later, the group arrived at the edge of a lake.

They saw a verdant little bird flying out from the woods not far away, carrying a small stone in its beak.

It was flapping its wings and flying toward them.

When Xiaoxian saw that little bird, its eyes lit up, and drool even flowed out.

Swish~

A golden figure flew straight toward the little bird.

Seeing this, Lv Luo let out a cry of surprise: "No..."

Unfortunately, it was already too late; they saw Xiaoxian swallow the verdant little bird in one gulp.

"Run quickly, that is a Jingwei bird!" A look of terror appeared on Lv Luo's face.

The Jingwei bird was a fierce bird from ancient legends, said to be an envoy sent down from the Immortal World.

"Sister Lv Luo, what's wrong? Isn't it just... a little bird?" Xiaoxian flew back slowly, smacking its lips, looking as if it hadn't had enough.

Chirp~ chirp~ chirp~

The forest in the distance seemed to explode, and suddenly all kinds of birds flew toward them.

Looking closely, they were very similar in form to the little bird Xiaoxian had just swallowed. They varied in size, but all had red beaks and emerald feathers.

The largest ones had wingspans of a full meter, which was astonishingly large.

Those sharp claws, like blades, made one's hair stand on end.

The number of them was even more staggering, a dense, swarming mass.

That cry that shook the forest was unusually loud, instantly making one's scalp tingle.

"It's over, we've run into big trouble!"

Lv Luo's pretty face was deathly pale; only then did she realize that Xiaoxian had just swallowed a young Jingwei bird, completely enraging the Jingwei bird flock in this area.

Facing such a siege of Jingwei birds, let alone the three of them, even if ten people came, they would undoubtedly die.

Seeing this, Xiaoxian showed no signs of fear; on the contrary, it wiped the drool from the corner of its mouth with its claw, its face full of greed, "Oh my! I've struck it rich, Big Brother, this young lady is going to pack them all up."

Hearing this, Su Chen cursed: "Strike your sister!"

He grabbed Xiaoxian by the neck with one hand and formed a seal with the other, quickly catching up to Luo Shen and Lv Luo.

"Ah, my big meal..."

Seeing that it was about to miss out on the delicacy before it, Xiaoxian cried bitterly.

The three people and one beast moved like the wind, flying through the air along the riverbank for their lives.

Suddenly.

A fierce beast resembling a giant gorilla blocked their path.

The fellow was covered in white hair, its two large feet were like two small boats, and it stood ten meters tall.

Its thick skin and flesh shimmered under the sunlight; one look and it was clear its defense was absolutely formidable.

At this moment, it was spreading those thick arms as if to play the host and embrace the three people and one beast, while disgusting saliva flowed incessantly from its mouth.

"Ah! A White Ape Beast!"

Lv Luo recognized the ugly monster at a glance and couldn't help but exclaim in fear.

The three people and one beast increased their speed by a few degrees.

Before the White Ape Beast's giant arms could close, they barely skimmed over its head.

Roar~

Seeing the duck that was about to be caught fly away, the White Ape Beast pounded its chest with both hands and roared at the sky, and a powerful shockwave rippled outward.

The countless Jingwei birds chasing from behind flew past the ape beast and continued to pursue Su Chen and the others.

The White Ape Beast then grabbed a larger Jingwei bird, didn't even pluck its feathers, and stuffed it directly into its mouth to chew, fresh blood dripping onto the ground along its disgusting maw.

Watching their kin die in the White Ape Beast's mouth, the vengeful Jingwei birds were instantly filled with towering rage, and in an instant, they changed their direction of attack.

They began to target the White Ape Beast for their assault.

Seeing the Jingwei birds bullying it with their superior numbers, the White Ape Beast felt the urge to retreat and turned to run.

Unfortunately, it was already too late.

Before it could even manage to break into a sprint, it was surrounded by countless Jingwei birds.

At a long cry from the lead bird, the flock of Jingwei birds launched their final attack.

Countless Jingwei birds clung to the White Ape Beast, pecking with their beaks and clawing with their talons, instantly gouging out small, bloody holes.

The White Ape Beast was unwilling to sit and wait for death.

It swung its fists, smashing at the Jingwei birds attached to its body.

Instantly, the Jingwei birds that failed to escape had their brains splattered and their bodies pulverized by its blows.

Fresh blood sprayed everywhere, and the scene was extremely bloody.

Seeing this, several Jingwei birds similar in size to the lead bird attacked the White Ape Beast's eyes.

Roar~

Caught off guard, the White Ape Beast was successfully ambushed by a large Jingwei bird; it lost an eye and let out a roar of pain.

The color of its skin turned red, and it entered a Frenzied State.

It hoisted two thick, dead logs from the ground and swung them with all its might.

Instantly, many Jingwei birds were struck, falling to the ground and letting out bitter cries.

Several large Jingwei birds joined the battle once more.

At the cost of two companions being struck, they finally managed to claw out the White Ape Beast's other eye.

Unable to see the situation, the White Ape Beast was like a drunken strongman, its sense of balance poor, stumbling about.

Finally, after exhausting its strength, it collapsed heavily to the ground.

The flock of Jingwei birds swarmed over and ended its life.

Although the Jingwei birds achieved final victory, they also paid a heavy price.

In this area, the blood on the riverbank gathered into a small, blood-colored stream that flowed into the lake.

At this moment, on a high mountain four miles away.

Three people and one beast lay in a patch of dense grass, watching the earth-shattering battle by the riverbank.

"Oh my! Good thing Big Brother brought me away quickly, otherwise that White Ape Beast would be my fate right now."

Seeing the formidable combat power of the Jingwei birds, Xiaoxian hugged its chest with its two claws and said tremblingly.
