The onlookers, witnessing the Sea Tribe of the East Sea writhing and rolling on the ground in pain, wore expressions of shock and uncertainty. If not for the genuine agony etched on their faces, everyone would have suspected the East Sea Sea Tribe of feigning their suffering!
The crowd paid little heed to the small bird's cries of "Jingwei," "Jingwei," "Jingwei," finding the sound rather pleasant.
Qinglong looked at the Turtle Prime Minister with a bewildered expression and tentatively asked,
"Old Turtle, do you feel anything?"
Upon hearing this, the Turtle Prime Minister immediately responded,
"My soul trembles. This little bird's cry is likely a form of soul attack!"
Seeing that they were unharmed, the Turtle Prime Minister inquired with confusion,
"Don't you feel anything?"
Zhuque, rubbing his nose, looked at the Turtle Prime Minister with a mischievous glint in his eyes.
"Old Turtle, I told you Sea Tribe members to do fewer wicked deeds. See? Is this karma? We feel nothing; it sounds quite pleasant to us!"
The Turtle Prime Minister felt as if he had been betrayed. So, this unknown little bird was targeting only their Sea Tribe? But weren't the Xuanwu tribe also part of the Sea Tribe? Why did they feel nothing?
The Turtle Prime Minister was unaware that the little bird, crying "Jingwei," was the transformed body of Nuwa, the daughter of Shennong. As the Xuanwu was one of the Four Sacred Beasts of the human race, how could she harm it!
The Jingwei bird successfully drew everyone's attention to itself. Qinglong, Baihu, Zhuque, Xuanwu, Qilin, the Turtle Prime Minister, and Fuxi all had their own thoughts.
Seeing the plight of the East Sea Sea Tribe, even their crown prince was among the soldiers rolling on the ground. This little Jingwei bird's cry was simply a nemesis to the Sea Tribe! If it could be harnessed, then they would have nothing to fear from offending the Four Seas Sea Tribe.
However, the Turtle Prime Minister's thoughts were the opposite of everyone else's. Such immense destructive power against the Sea Tribe meant this Jingwei bird could not be allowed to exist in this world!
With this thought, the Turtle Prime Minister hesitated no longer and attacked the Jingwei bird!
Seeing this, everyone else remained still, wishing to observe the situation. Only Shennong, watching from afar, felt an inexplicable kinship with the little bird. He recalled his life and was certain he had never seen this bird before, yet he didn't know where this feeling of familiarity originated!
Shennong's heart tightened as he saw the Turtle Prime Minister attack the Jingwei bird. For some reason, he did not wish to see the bird get hurt!
As the Turtle Prime Minister's attack approached the little bird, the bird suddenly cried out towards him!
"Jingwei!"
"Jingwei!"
"Jingwei!"
...
As the frequency of the bird's cries increased, the East Sea Sea Tribe felt as if they were in hell. Many Sea Tribe members even took their own lives.
As the Turtle Prime Minister's attack drew closer to the Jingwei bird, the bird made no move to evade, only continued to cry incessantly, its cries growing more and more mournful!
As Jingwei's cries became increasingly sorrowful, the moment the Turtle Prime Minister's attack touched Jingwei, the attack reversed its course and flew back towards the Turtle Prime Minister!
The Turtle Prime Minister looked as if he had seen a ghost. While his attacks might have been considered among the lowest tier for his generation, surely not just any creature could withstand them. This infernal bird not only blocked his attack but also sent it back at him.
After parrying the returning attack, the Turtle Prime Minister, before launching another, saw the little bird suddenly spread its wings and fly towards the shore!
Seeing this, the Turtle Prime Minister became as vigilant as if facing a great enemy. However, the Jingwei bird didn't even spare him a glance, as if it had forgotten that the Turtle Prime Minister had just attacked it!
The Jingwei bird flew past everyone and headed towards the distant location of Shennong and the unnamed individuals. It gently landed on Shennong's shoulder and affectionately nuzzled his face with its head!
Shennong was also surprised that the little bird would alight on his shoulder. He felt an increasing sense of familiarity and affectionately stroked the Jingwei bird's head with his hand!
Jingwei happily hopped and flapped its wings on Shennong's shoulder, chirping and calling out.
"Jingwei!"
"Jingwei!"
After resting on Shennong's shoulder for a while, Jingwei flew to a large rock. With a gentle peck of its beak, the large rock transformed into a small pebble before everyone's eyes. Jingwei held the pebble in its beak and flew towards the East Sea!
Once over the East Sea, Jingwei dropped the stone it held. The moment the stone left Jingwei's beak, it rapidly grew in size, soon returning to its original form as a massive boulder, which then plunged into the East Sea!
Everyone watched in dumbfounded silence. Even the Four Clan Leaders were greatly astonished. Despite their countless years of existence, they had never witnessed such a peculiar creature!
Its cries possessed soul-attacking power, and its beak held spatial abilities. This was truly a divine beast!
The four exchanged glances, each wondering if any of them knew the origin of this little bird!
They shook their heads at each other. Then, their gazes fell upon Fuxi in the distance. Fuxi could be considered one with Taihao, and the four believed that Taihao might know the origin of this bird.
Fuxi, seeing the Four Clan Leaders looking at him, knew what they wanted to know. However, despite Fuxi's considerable knowledge, he too could not discern the bird's origin. Perhaps only Tai Shang might know the origin of this Jingwei.
The Turtle Prime Minister, seeing Jingwei actually throw rocks into the East Sea, was nearly driven to madness. This infernal creature's cries wounded the souls of his Sea Tribe, and it couldn't even be struck. Now, it was throwing rocks into the East Sea! What was it trying to do? Was it planning to fill up the East Sea? The Turtle Prime Minister was so infuriated he burst into laughter!
"Hahaha! Are you trying to fill up the East Sea? Go ahead, try! You'll exhaust yourself before you can fill it! Hahaha!"
"Hahaha!"
"Hahaha!"
"Hahaha!"
...
Before the Turtle Prime Minister's laughter could subside, it was abruptly cut off, as if a duck's throat had been squeezed!
The Turtle Prime Minister saw Jingwei suddenly fly to a towering mountain. With another gentle peck of its beak, the entire mountain vanished!
Jingwei gently picked up something with its beak from the ground, then flew towards the East Sea again. A mountain suddenly appeared beneath Jingwei, descending towards the East Sea. As the mountain entered the sea, it created colossal waves! The Su Dan Novel Network
The Turtle Prime Minister, still roaring with laughter, witnessed this scene and nearly choked to death on the spot!
Fuxi and the others' faces changed drastically. They quickly brought Shennong and the unnamed individuals to higher ground, as the area where Fuxi and the others had stood moments before had now become an expanse of water!
