Chapter 2336 Enmity Formed at First Sight
He pulled a small statue from his pocket, muttered a few words, then pointed the statue at the flock of vampire sparrows and shook it gently: "Come out, let's teach these blind creatures a lesson!"
"Huh?" Aunt Zhu looked at it and realized it looked familiar. "Isn't this the statue of Xu Ling Qionglong?"
Just a few days ago, it even fought with the dome in the mirror world.
There seemed to be a bit of transparent gas swirling around the statue, and then a tornado suddenly appeared behind the crane demon without warning!
From nothing to something, from small to large, it only takes about three or four breaths, leaving the opponent no time to react.
The tornado wasn't very big, only about seventy or eighty feet in diameter. The crane demons flew steadily and quickly, and were hardly affected.
This tornado wasn't small; it exploded in mid-air, just enough to catch the swooping vampire bird, almost stuffing it all into the whirlwind.
There were also hundreds of panicked birds, some flying back, some crashing into the crane demon, but Aunt Zhu shot out a handful of spider silk and they were easily caught and stuck back.
Burrowing spiders are always very skilled at catching birds.
A giant wind monster like Qionglong is always very dangerous to aerial avian demons. He Lingchuan saw more than a dozen large and small clouds of blood mist burst open in the tornado, like summer fireworks, beautiful and gorgeous.
That was the wind blade hidden in the whirlwind that tore the vampire sparrow to pieces and then transferred its nutrients to the dome.
When the tornado dissipated, the red bird feathers falling from the sky looked like a blood rain falling on the ghost town.
By this time, the crane demons had flown several miles away, leaving the ghost city far behind.
He Lingchuan turned around and could still see the face of the Earth Mother, which had been conjured from the clouds and mist, her gaze seemingly fixed on him.
Such a brief encounter resulted in a feud between the two sides.
Human cities also set up no-fly zones to drive away flying personnel, but they would never do what Mother Earth does, sending out vampire sparrows to kill anyone who gets too close.
It truly treats all living beings as nothing.
There's still a bunch of spoils lying in Aunt Zhu's net waiting to be processed. They're not only chattering and making a lot of noise, but they're also seriously slowing down the crane demon's flight speed.
After flying for a little while longer, the cranes chose a patch of ground that hadn't been blackened to land on.
Then seven or eight eye-shaped spiders crawled out and tried to eat the sparrows.
Vampire sparrows feed by tearing flesh from their prey with their sharp beaks, while cave spiders feed by injecting powerful anesthetics and digestive juices into their prey, and then sucking out the liquefied flesh and blood essence in no time. However, just as the little spiders finished pricking the two sparrows, Dong Rui said, "Why don't you keep this for me to experiment on?"
"You can use this for experiments?"
"They are simple-minded and easy to control."
Upon hearing this, Aunt Zhu immediately said, "Alright, just use anesthesia. These things are so noisy!"
The little spider injected its prey with anesthesia, and soon they quieted down. Then Aunt Zhu rolled up her web and stuffed it into her abdominal pouch.
This is the internal storage space that comes with the new spider molt, which can even hold living creatures, although the volume is not large—otherwise, it would be inconvenient for the queen spider to carry her prey on her back or tie it to her abdomen each time.
Furthermore, after being placed into this abdominal pouch, the connection between the vampire sparrow and its original owner was severed, preventing Mother Earth from tracing He Lingchuan and the others.
……
It was as if a heavy rain had fallen on Jade Capital City, a rain of blood-sucking bird feathers.
Watching the crane demons fly away quickly, the monsters in Jade Capital City roared in resentment. Several bird demons wanted to give chase, but were stopped by the Earth Mother.
Following them won't help; these guys look like tough nuts to crack.
The two celestial beings standing atop the city wall frowned deeply upon witnessing this scene.
Suddenly a voice came from the side: "You dare to get so close and observe? You've got some nerve. Do you recognize the people on the crane's back?"
A small stone figure, no bigger than the palm of a hand, appeared on the battlement at some unknown time. It had a round head, round belly, human-like features, and red eyes.
“I can’t recognize them, they’re wearing masks.” Xi Yushen shook his head. “There are many sects that can control wind monsters, but we can’t tell anything just by looking at this one supernatural ability.”
The stone golem picked up half of the bird's head from the ground and examined it closely: "My little pets are not something that ordinary wind monsters can destroy. This wind blade cuts sharply and evenly, very much like the work of that wind demon from the Gale Plains."
The Jade Capital City doesn't keep useless creatures. Its vampire sparrows are a unique breed; though small in size, they possess steel wings and iron claws, even their feathers gleam with a metallic sheen. Let's put it this way: slicing open a Jade Capital Vampire Sparrow is no easier than slicing open steel; ordinary gales simply cannot do it.
Moreover, this wind monster is not just dealing with one vampire bird, but thousands of them!
"The Gale Plains?" Wu Yao had no idea where that was.
Xi Yu, the god, clearly had better geographical knowledge than He: "In the country of Baoshu, that great mountain is named after it, called Fengmo Mountain. Every day, a strong wind blows from the earth's core, capable of turning a living person into dust within a few breaths. However, that immortal sect perished hundreds of years ago, and even the Great Wind Demon was destroyed."
Wu Yao glared at him. Why go into so much detail? It sounds like he was sent by Beka.
Mother Earth asked them, "Did anyone know you came to me?"
"Logically speaking, there shouldn't be many, but Ling Shan and Cang Yan's intelligence is always quite accurate."
The god Wu Yao didn't tell the whole truth. After their successful divine descent, they first helped the Fu Kingdom win several battles before heading northwest. Even though their divine descent on Pulu Island didn't attract much attention, their public appearance and powerful display on the Fu Kingdom's battlefield were witnessed by countless eyes.
This kind of intelligence is not easy to hide.
"You claim to be powerful, yet you can't even conceal your whereabouts?" Mother Earth said bluntly, "Useless!"
Perhaps this trouble was brought about by these two useless demons.
Xi Yu raised an eyebrow, somewhat displeased.
Wherever they went in the human world, not only ordinary people, but even generals, kings, nobles, and powerful demons treated them with utmost respect. Only this stone man ordered them around, arrogant and rude.
Wu Yao said, "The human world is very different now than before. With the rise of nations, even immortals and demons have to attach themselves to them. They spy on each other, and their methods are so sophisticated and covert that ordinary immortals and demons can hardly imagine them."
"The rise of nations?" Mother Earth chuckled, her voice full of sarcasm. "I haven't seen any rising nations along my journey."
Xi Yu said, "A tiny country like ours is no match for Mother Earth."
"Oh?" Mother Earth understood. "Then which country do you consider my rival?"
Does this demon mean that small countries are no good, but large countries are?
"Let alone Bega and the Mu Kingdom, even the newly emerging Cang Yan, you might not get the better of them there." Xi Yushen also got a little angry and said bluntly, "In the past few years, several ancient sects have emerged from seclusion in the Gold Plains, and each of them wants to challenge Cang Yan. And what's the result? As a result, Cang Yan has been living a peaceful and prosperous life."
