Xia Muqing watched helplessly as the giant eagle was about to attack her.
A tiny figure suddenly appeared in front of her.
Gungun increased its speed till the limit. The fur on its body moved without wind, and its body was emitting faint light.
Squeak.
Its voice pierced through heaven and earth, and everyone present was suppressed by Gun Gun’s pressure.
The giant eagle’s attack was already about to hit them.
Just when they thought that everything was over,
Gungun caught it!
Xia Muqing heaved a sigh of relief.
The situation earlier on was too fast for her to react.
Bang!
With another bang, the giant eagle that was blocked by Gungun fell to the ground.
Xia Muqing was shocked by Gungun’s power.
Perhaps Gungun had been hiding its true strength all this time?
With a cry, the black eagle reacted and rushed to the giant eagle.
Gungun landed from the sky. It didn’t seem as agile as before.
Xia Muqing could tell at one glance that Gungun had fallen down.
She quickly reached out and pulled Gungun into her arms.
Squeak.
It was so soft that Xia Muqing almost couldn’t hear it.
Gungun glanced at Xia Muqing and fainted after that.
Xia Muqing’s eyes reddened instantly.
“Gungun?”
She called out a few times but there was no response.
Xia Muqing finally felt a surge of anger.
No matter how aggressive the giant eagle was previously, Xia Muqing didn’t get angry. She knew that it was because the giant eagle had misunderstood.
However, as she looked at the soft body in her arms, her heart ached painfully.
Gungun had ended up like this because she was useless.
Xia Muqing, who had previously only cultivated her essential energy for self-defense purposes, suddenly had a greater desire for power.
Only when she became strong could she protect the people around her.
She studied the giant eagle and the black eagle coldly. This was the first time she had ever looked at an animal like this. f𝘳e𝒆w𝗲𝐛𝘯𝐨νe𝚕.co𝓶
The black eagle cried out. It looked at its father and then at Xia Muqing, not knowing what to do.
Xia Muqing had no intention to explain herself, and she walked into the cave.
The giant eagle couldn’t move and could only watch from outside.
It kept calling out to warn Xia Muqing.
But Xia Muqing kept walking towards the female eagle.
The giant eagle was even more anxious and asked the black eagle to stop Xia Muqing.
The black eagle went to Xia Muqing hesitantly. It didn’t believe its father who said that she would hurt its mother.
It was the one who told its father about Xia Muqing’s medical skills.
It had snuck to the middle range of the mountains and saw Xia Muqing.
It had seen her treat animals, watched as she ran with the animals, and had also seen her smile.
The black eagle didn’t know how to describe it, but it felt very beautiful and warm.
The black eagle followed closely behind Xia Muqing and didn’t stop her.
Xia Muqing didn’t mind and reached out to remove the needles from the female eagle’s chest.
The father and son watched as the female eagle, which was already dead, suddenly rose.
With a cry, it laid an egg.
Xia Muqing ignored them.
She carried Gungun and strode out.
The two eagles, who were too surprised for words, only realized that Xia Muqing had walked away when she had almost left the mountain.
In a flash, two eagles stood in a row and stopped Xia Muqing.
The black eagle was still staring at Xia Muqing with sparkling eyes.
Previously, its father had told it not to reveal itself to the beasts living in the middle range. That was why it didn’t look for Xia Muqing.
But it really liked her.
The giant eagle bowed its head as it looked at Xia Muqing apologetically.
It had misunderstood her.
Looking at Gungun in Xia Muqing’s arms, the giant eagle felt some pain in its body.
But this was its fault.
Xia Muqing stared coldly at the two eagles in front of her.
The smile on her face had disappeared.
The black eagle came over sadly and wanted to rub its head against the back of Xia Muqing’s hand.
However, Xia Muqing avoided it.
The giant eagle suddenly let out a cry to the black eagle and flew away.
Xia Muqing wanted to leave but was stopped by the black eagle.
To begin with, it didn’t want Xia Muqing to leave. Furthermore, it had instructions from its father.
It even tried its best to make Xia Muqing stay.
