A teenager wrapped in a black robe swept across the sky like a meteor as he dashed in their direction at a tremendous speed!
He was very far away at first, but within a split second, he was right in front of them!
He had a stern, forbidding look on his face and his eyes were as brooding as they were apathetic. His black robe flapped in the wind and he reminded one of a celestial being descending to this world!
He then brought down the resplendent sword in his hands, creating a splendid arc in the air!
The light which came off the sword had a momentum as tremendous as an erupting volcano, and a formidable power of Nature burst out!
Everyone down on the ground was shaken by the towering sword energy.
The overbearing strength of the powerful teenager made them stiffen and hold their breaths, not daring to make a sound!
The black-robed teenager crashed into the eagle like a thunderbolt!
The collision created sky-high flames!
The clouds echoed with rumbles and the entire sky shook with it!
With a loud bang, the enormous body of Giant Flaming Cloud Eagle plummeted from the sky and crashed onto the roof of Yunlai Tower!
The age-old building collapsed under the eagle's weight and crumbled loudly to the ground!
The air was filled with dust and flames leapt into the sky.
All mouths fell open and everyone was rendered speechless.
Wasn't that Giant Flaming Cloud Eagle supposed to be really powerful?
Weren't they told that no one was able to tame this savage beast?
Hadn't the head of the Qiushui family fled Frozen Forest in a flurry, pursued by this bird?
Who was this teenager? Who on earth was this peerless, talented young man in black?!
Once the smoke and flames dispersed, they saw a youth of great radiance pointing his sword at the eagle's throat, one foot on its head.
The eagle that was so rampant a moment ago was barely breathing…
Everyone then saw the teenager's face.
His black robe flapped in the wind, wrapping around his deft, slender figure. He looked poised and graceful.
He had deep-set, sculpted features and sharp, ruthless eyes that had something dangerous about them.
His aura was so intimidating that no one dared move closer or look directly into his eyes!
Everyone drew in their breaths.
"Oh my god!"
"Holy crap!"
"Good gracious!"
Instantly, all the pretty girls lost control.
Some trembled, some cried into their hands, and some even passed out!
However, at the same moment, that giant eagle was raving furiously. "Face and head are off limits in a fight! Keep your feet away from my head!"
Jun Linyuan smirked, then stepped on its head again.
Giant Flaming Cloud Eagle said angrily, "Can't you hear me? Don't step on my head! I'm the boss of the giant eagle clan, for Christ's sake!"
Jun Linyuan snorted, then stepped on it a few more times.
The eagle was almost in tears. Seeing that playing tough didn't work, it yielded, imploring with a wail, "Dude, please let me go. You've chopped off half of my skull; if you keep stepping on my head, I'll die!"
Jun Linyuan sneered.
By now, all the girls in the crowd had been driven mad by their stunning crown prince!
"Jun Linyuan! It's Jun Linyuan! Jun Linyuan, our crown prince!"
"Gosh! Oh god! Aah!"
"I thought I was going to die here today, but His Royal Highness saved my life! I was taught to return a favor with all I can offer. He saved me, so I'm going to repay him with my own body!"
After that, the bold, passionate young woman threw herself at Jun Linyuan!
No one expected that at all!
Even someone as haughty and detached as Jun Linyuan was taken by surprise.
Shit!
Feng Wu noticed Giant Flaming Cloud Eagle's eyes at that moment. In an instant, its inky black eyes turned scarlet red. The animal was going berserk!
How cunning! The weakness it had shown a moment ago was all fake!
Feng Wu feared nothing more than death. Before she realized it, she had backed away and turned to flee!
However, at that moment —
Giant Flaming Cloud Eagle exploded with a roar, shaking heaven and earth!
It went berserk!
Just when all eyes were on that bold, passionate girl, who pounced on Jun Linyuan —
Giant Flaming Cloud Eagle flapped its wings and picked Feng Wu out of the crowd!
Feng Wu was dumbfounded!
"Holy crap!" She swore she was going to have a heart attack!
She had been taken by Giant Flaming Cloud Eagle!
Feng Wu was dazed for a moment. She began to pound on the eagle's chest when she came back to herself. "Put me down! Now! Why are you doing this to me?!"
The eagle sneered. "He stepped on my head and I'm taking his woman!"
Feng Wu knew perfectly well who the bird meant by "he," which was what frustrated her the most!
"I'm not!"
"You all are!!!" the eagle said stubbornly as it remained unmoved, its eyes flickering fiercely.
Feng Wu said in resignation, "… Fine, let's say I am. In that sea of women down there, why did you have to grab me?!" Why on earth should she be the most unlucky one?
The eagle smirked. "Those women are all nuts. They terrify me. You look like a lamb!"
Feng Wu almost choked. Screw you!
So, she seemed vulnerable because she wasn't pulling her hair out and throwing herself at Jun Linyuan like the others? What kind of reasoning was that?!
Jun Linyuan had been genuinely astonished by the fanatical girl, but he was only dazed for a brief moment.
The next second, he raised Sky Destroyer — his sword — and charged at the eagle like a cannonball!
Holding Feng Wu up by her throat and using her as a shield, Giant Flaming Cloud Eagle threatened Jun Linyuan. "You! Stop right there! Come any closer and she's dead!"
Feng Wu really wanted to die at that moment!
Are you kidding me? Jun Linyuan was callous and heartless, and couldn't care less whether other people lived or died. Why on earth did the bird think he would be intimidated?
"Hey! Did you hear me? I told you not to come any closer!" The eagle kept falling back.
Jun Linyuan smirked. From the start, he hadn't even darted a glance in Feng Wu's direction, as if she was just one of the eagle's feathers!
Seeing that things were turning south for itself, the eagle panicked!
The next second, it flapped its wings that covered half the sky and bolted!
"No!" Feng Wu cried out in despair!
With her between its beak, Giant Flaming Cloud Eagle fled!
It flew away!
Feng Wu's vision blurred, her stomach churned, and she could feel the biting cold wind scrape over her cheeks!
Looking down, she realized that she was rising higher and higher…
Everyone on the ground looked as tiny as ants.
It finally occurred to her that she was hanging in the fangs of Giant Flaming Cloud Eagle and dangling in the wind!
"You —" Feng Wu wanted to slap the bird!
How dare it kidnap her!
Giant Flaming Cloud Eagle lowered its gaze and realized that the girl was still around, which pissed it off right away.
What was this burden here for? It took Feng Wu in its claws and was going to throw her down!
Feng Wu held onto its talon. "What do you think you're doing?!"
Falling from this height would kill her!
Giant Flaming Cloud Eagle glared at Feng Wu impatiently. "You're useless and a terrible hostage! Are you good at anything at all?"
Feng Wu drew in her breath and fought back her anger!
"So, are you saying it's my fault?"
The eagle snorted. "I've never met a hostage as hopeless as you. What good are you?"
Feng Wu listened in silence.
I. Am. Not. Talking. To. You!
