Chapter 1103: Chapter 1100: Bring Me the Head
In the face of this super powerhouse, who ranks second in the battle strength of the Demon Race, even Xu Wendong felt a strong sense of oppression.
Especially those deep and sharp eyes of his, like a sharp longsword.
Just one glance made Xu Wendong’s scalp tingle with fear.
It was as if those eyes could peer into the deepest secrets of Xu Wendong’s heart.
Without much thought, he quickly saluted: "Junior Xu Wendong, pays respects to Senior!"
Bang!
Jin Peng casually tossed aside the head of the Azure Scaled Eagle and said with a smile, "I heard earlier that you wanted to kill this Azure Scaled Eagle, so I conveniently took care of it."
Upon hearing this.
Xu Wendong instinctively swallowed, feeling a tingle on his scalp and a chill down his spine.
Just a second ago, he had said he hoped Hong Luan could kill that Azure Scaled Eagle, and unexpectedly, the next moment, someone came with its head.
Indeed, it was undeniably the beast most skilled in flight among the Three Realms!
The speed was so fast it was hard to accept.
Coming back to his senses, Xu Wendong said in both surprise and flattery: "The Azure Scaled Eagle is one of the four great protectors under Senior, why would you do such a thing?"
Jin Peng smiled and said, "Let the little one come out!"
Xu Wendong was taken aback, knowing Jin Peng was referring to the Golden Crow, but how did he know about it?
Jin Peng seemed to sense Xu Wendong’s thoughts: "I felt that little one’s aura on you. Although it’s very faint, it can’t escape my notice."
With things as they were, Xu Wendong didn’t say much else, and with a thought, he released the juvenile Golden Crow.
"Is this the Golden Crow?" Chi Feng exclaimed, his pupils filled with shock.
The Golden Crow looked warily at Jin Peng and Chi Feng, instinctively shrinking into Xu Wendong’s arms.
Jin Peng scolded nonchalantly, "Your territory borders with Qing Yu. Didn’t you feel the unusual phenomenon when the Golden Crow was born?"
Chi Feng nervously swallowed: "I did sense unusual phenomena in the territory of the Azure Scaled Eagle recently, but I didn’t expect it was because of the birth of the Golden Crow."
Jin Peng looked indulgently at the Golden Crow in Xu Wendong’s arms: "The Golden Crow is a mighty divine beast of our Avian Tribe, and in terms of attack power, even I am no match for it."
"Luckily, that Qing Yu fellow didn’t kill this little one, or it would have been a great sorrow for our Avian Tribe!"
Chi Feng fell silent.
Although the Golden-Winged Roc is ranked second in the Demon Realm’s battle strength leaderboard,
one thing was clear.
Among the multitude of forces, the strength of the Avian Tribe is definitely ranked the lowest.
Because there hadn’t been any mutant demon beasts in the Avian Tribe for many years.
And even the four great protectors of the Avian Tribe only possess cultivation levels at the Tribulation Crossing Peak and Great Ascension Initial Stage.
They can’t compare to the other seven major forces at all.
Now, it’s so rare for a Golden Crow to appear in the Avian Tribe, if it truly met with misfortune, it would indeed be the sorrow of the Avian Tribe.
And most importantly,
the reason the Golden-Winged Roc is second in the demon race’s battle strength rankings ultimately lies in its speed.
Without the boost of its bloodline talent, its strength isn’t that impressive.
But the Golden Crow is different.
When this one grows, even the Dragon Clan would be left in the dust.
"Little one, would you like to cultivate with me?" Jin Peng said with a smile, looking at the Golden Crow in Xu Wendong’s arms.
The Golden Crow looked blankly at Xu Wendong. It liked this human and wanted to live by his side.
"Hurry and thank the senior," Xu Wendong naturally knew the Golden Crow’s thoughts. Although he wanted the Golden Crow to stay by his side,
he knew even more clearly that following Jin Peng was the fastest way for this little one to grow.
"Thank you, great king!" The Golden Crow chirped in its childlike voice, then fluttered its wings and flew onto Jin Peng’s shoulder.
"Young Master Xu saved the Golden Crow, and he is a benefactor of our Avian Tribe. We owe you a favor."
"If Young Master Xu needs anything, just channel your True Qi into this feather." Jin Peng opened his right hand, revealing a palm-sized golden feather.
Though just a golden feather, it emitted a sacred and powerful aura, giving a sense that it could tear the heavens.
Xu Wendong hesitated and said, "Senior, there is indeed a matter I would like to ask for your help with."
Chi Feng chuckled and said, "You’re really not polite, are you?"
Jin Peng, however, didn’t mind saying, "I don’t like polite people; it’s too insincere."
Xu Wendong got straight to the point: "I am afflicted with a rare poison, and I heard that the Dragon Blood Resurrection Grass of the Dragon Clan can cure it, so I hope the senior can help."
Hearing this, Jin Peng showed a troubled expression, "If it were something else, I could help you."
"But the Dragon Blood Resurrection Grass is a supreme treasure of the Dragon Clan, said to reside within the Dragon Mausoleum. Even if I personally go to the Dragon Clan, it’s unlikely the Dragon King would be willing to give me face."
Stopping for a moment, he continued, "However, I can send you to the Dragon Clan. As for whether you can obtain the Dragon Blood Resurrection Grass, that depends on your fate."
Xu Wendong was secretly delighted; even if Jin Peng couldn’t help him obtain the Dragon Blood Resurrection Grass, being personally sent to the Dragon Clan would certainly save some time.
Furthermore, upon reaching the Dragon Clan, his status would be assured.
Jin Peng added, "But there’s something Young Master Xu needs to remember. The Dragon Blood Resurrection Grass is a supreme treasure of the Dragon Clan. They not only won’t easily give it to others, but they also are very averse to others coveting it."
Xu Wendong felt a jolt in his heart: "Doesn’t that mean I won’t be able to obtain it?"
"Not necessarily." Jin Peng smiled and said, "The Dragon Clan has a fondness for humans. If you can accomplish something valuable while among the Dragon Clan, you can earn contribution points. Once you have enough, you could exchange them for the item."
Xu Wendong nodded slightly.
Jin Peng then asked, "I hear your physique is extremely rare; has Young Master Xu ever studied any Body Refining Techniques?"
Xu Wendong shook his head: "I haven’t studied any."
"That’s good." Jin Peng smiled and said, "The Dragon Clan has a particularly domineering Body Refining Technique called the Nine Dragons Refinement Technique."
"You are a benefactor of our Avian Tribe. To repay this favor, I’ll send you to the Dragon Clan to learn the technique. Does this not give you a valid and reasonable reason?"
Xu Wendong was momentarily stunned, then nodded, "It’s indeed very reasonable!"
"As long as there’s a reasonable justification, that’s enough!" Jin Peng said, grabbing Xu Wendong by the arm.
The next second.
Xu Wendong’s vision twisted, and before he could regain his composure, he was already traversing the void with Jin Peng, arriving at a gorge illuminated with bright lights.
Though not yet having entered the valley, he felt a terrifying aura here, one that filled him with unease.
At the entrance of the gorge stood a huge stele.
On it was boldly inscribed, Dragon Clan!
Xu Wendong’s heart raced; whether he could obtain the Dragon Blood Resurrection Grass depended entirely on his fortune now!
