Chapter 1118: Chapter 1118: A Small Reward
The Chief Mansion of the Changkong family is divided into two parts: the eastern and the western. The buildings in the eastern area are tall and luxuriously decorated; it is the residence of i Ji and Jiu Ge, where the four grand elders and so high-ranking mbers of the Changkong family also live.
The western area has relatively low structures with simpler decorations, mainly housing the guards of the Chief Mansion. The young n and won captured to be sacrificed to i Ji are also imprisoned in this area, along with so criminals who violated the laws of Midair City.
At the western end of the Chief Mansion’s western area lies the Soul-breaking Cliff. Every day, young n, won, and criminals are escorted to be fed to the Blood Eagles.
The Blood Eagles are the totem of the Changkong family, also rumored to be their ancestors. Over the years, both have coexisted peacefully. The Changkong family provides necessary food for the Blood Eagles, and in return, they guard the Soul-breaking Cliff area.
This is why there are no human guards at the Soul-breaking Cliff. The area is steep as if carved by a divine axe, combined with the fierce Blood Eagles standing guard, making it impossible for the Changkong family to think about entering the Chief Mansion from there.
Moreover, at the Changkong family’s request, even though the Blood Eagles enjoy eating human flesh, they cannot leave their territory to harm humans unless the Changkong family is in danger. In such cases, the Blood Eagles will mobilize to both help resolve the crisis and feast on their share.
In short, the Blood Eagles are extrely important to the Changkong family, so when she heard the Blood Eagles were going berserk, i Ji didn’t even care about Ye You’s fiancée. After all, the girl was restricted by poison from using her magic power, weak and frail, and it didn’t matter if she lived a few more days.
i Ji followed the guard for a short distance before she heard the cries of the Blood Eagles and the sound of buildings collapsing in the distance. Her face changed; she spun her body, rose with the wind, and flew into the air.
From afar, several Blood Eagles were rampaging inside the Chief Mansion, flapping their wings relentlessly, releasing Wind Spirit Power. Gusts of powerful hurricanes blew the buildings of the Chief Mansion to pieces.
i Ji was both angry and anxious, hurriedly flying towards the western area of the Chief Mansion while shouting loudly: "Stop it, halt! You stupid beasts!"
Yun Wang and Yun Cheng hid underground in the soil, unnoticed by the frantic i Ji.
Qing Xun ran to the artificial lake i Ji built. With Water Attribute as his intrinsic attributes, he was truly like a fish in water at this mont. The hurricanes caused by the Blood Eagles were significantly weakened in the water, and even when whirlpools ford, Qing Xun could easily manage.
The Blood Eagles could not enter the water, so they called out angrily, continuously releasing Wind Spirit Power that swept over the artificial lake, creating waves that tore i Ji’s ticulously built water-based gallery into disarray. The various plants in the water also suffered, breaking into tiny fragnts.
Heartbroken, i Ji dashed in front of a Blood Eagle, releasing a move "Wind Sky Slash" to attack it. The Blood Eagle, now enraged and vexed, saw its forr allegiance attacking it, causing even more bitterness in its heart. It flapped its wings to unleash Wind Spirit Power against i Ji.
i Ji, being a sixth-level Magic God, faced the Blood Eagle, also of the Sixth Order. Although the life span of a Magic God is much longer than that of humans, their practice speed is slower. Even at the sa level, this Blood Eagle’s magic power was ultimately inferior to i Ji’s, and it had already consud a lot of energy and magic power chasing Qing Xun.
After a confrontation, the Blood Eagle was struck by i Ji’s "Fury Wind Star Burst," crying out in pain as its massive body plumted downwards, landing in the lake, barely alive.
Though furious that the Blood Eagle destroyed her carefully designed scenery, i Ji recalled the contract between the Changkong family and the Blood Eagles. She suppressed her anger, refrained from finishing it off, and turned to fly towards another Blood Eagle.
Seeing i Ji’s silhouette vanish, Qing Xun cautiously erged from the water, turned to look at the gravely injured Blood Eagle floating on the water’s surface, and wore an unusually serious expression.
He was indeed kind-hearted, disliking slaughter, but when faced with such carnivorous Demonic Beasts, he felt it better to be ruthless.
"Cloud Water Thorn!" A pale green light flashed, and Qing Xun launched an attack on the Blood Eagle.
Eagles soar through the skies; it is their domain for fighting and flying. However, in water, with wings drenched, even flying, their best skill, becos difficult, not to ntion this Blood Eagle was heavily injured by i Ji.
After a piercing cry, the Blood Eagle in the water ceased to have any vitality.
An idea occurred to Qing Xun as he quickly moved forward to pry open the Blood Eagle’s forehead, revealing a Magic Crystal Stone flickering with a pale blue glow.
Qing Xun smiled softly. It was all right; after such hard work, he might as well take so reward!
When i Ji flew up close to another Blood Eagle, she finally noticed a pattern: these Blood Eagles were not aimlessly causing destruction but seed to be pursuing soone.
i Ji’s eyes flickered as she concealed herself behind a large tree, slightly stretching out her head to carefully observe.
Yun Wang erged from underground, leading the Blood Eagle close to a gorgeously decorated pavilion, then abruptly dove inside it.
The Blood Eagle, already out of its mind with rage, unthinkingly flapped its wings, conjuring a fierce wind that shook the splendid pavilion until it collapsed with a loud crash.
i Ji’s heart bled; that pavilion had taken countless skilled artisans years to build to completion.
Positioned near the artificial lake, one could overlook the lake and the surrounding scenery from the window, feeling relaxed and happy. Even in the scorching sumr, the pavilion was always breezy and refreshing.
With her beloved construction destroyed, i Ji was infuriated. At that mont, she noticed Yun Wang, chased by the Blood Eagle, erging from the ground unhard.
By now, how could i Ji not realize that she was being sched against?
"Panhu family." Yun Wang’s masterful Burrow Escape Skill caught i Ji’s eye, prompting her to instantly guess the boy’s origin.
"The Panhu family and the Changkong family have always kept to themselves, and yet you dare co to my territory to wreak havoc? Don’t bla
for being ruthless!" i Ji muttered a curse, flipping her hand to form shallow blue Wind Attribute Magic Power.
She swung her arm, and with a push of her palm, the magic skill Fury Wind Star Burst was unleashed. Spiraling with potent force, it engulfed Yun Wang.
Having just led the Blood Eagle to demolish a beautiful building, Yun Wang felt a small sense of triumph, not expecting misfortune amidst his delight. The smile on his lips hadn’t even faded when he sensed a formidable force coming his way.
