C20 Have Been Cheated
Not long after, the Golden Flare Hawk on the branch stood up, stretched its wings, and let out a clear eagle cry. It looked at the bird's nest, and then spread its wings, flying out.
"You go lure it away, and then I'll go get your baby and meet up at the place where we met last night." Mu Yun stared at the bird's nest and said softly.
"Alright, I'll be going then. Remember to be careful and not touch my baby." White Crow said slyly. Then, the White Crow picked up a rock and flew to a spot not far away from the bird's nest. It flung its little head and the stone flew out, striking straight onto the bird's nest.
"Xia!"
A short, cold, and angry cry came out from the bird's nest. Then, a golden head popped out from the nest, and a piercing gaze landed on Mu Yun.
"Xia!"
Once again releasing a wail, the Golden Flare Hawk jumped out of the lair. With golden flames boiling around it, it revealed its cultivation, impressively, it had already reached the second level of Martial Profound Stage. After that, it slightly spread its wings, and its entire body swooped down like an arrow leaving the bow.
"Damn, something doesn't seem right." Mu Yun exclaimed, then pointed towards the White Crow: "It's him, go find him."
However, there were no signs of the White Crow. The White Crow had disappeared at some point.
Seeing that the Golden Flare Hawk was getting closer to him, Mu Yun did not bother looking for it anymore. He spread his legs and ran into the forest.
The Golden Flare Hawk was not willing to let this human boy who was provoking it go. It flapped its wings and followed him into the forest, following closely behind.
When the White Crow had stopped, a rock moved slightly, and then emitted a silvery white radiance. "Haha, we can finally have a taste of the Golden Flare Hawk's egg." Who else could it be other than the White Crow that just disappeared.
"Stupid crow, just you wait." At this moment, how could Mu Yun not know that he had been tricked. This White Crow was clearly telling him to lure the Golden Flare Hawk away.
The more Mu Yun ran, the faster he ran, and he specifically went towards the dense trees, hoping that the dense trees would slow down the Golden Flare Hawk. However, Mu Yun obviously underestimated the agility of the Golden Flare Hawk, as long as Mu Yun could get through, the Golden Flare Hawk could easily pass through.
Seeing the Golden Flare Hawk getting closer and closer, so close that Mu Yun could feel the cold killing intent emitted by its sharp claws, Mu Yun knew that it would be useless to run anymore, so he might as well fight it out.
Mu Yun changed his direction and sprinted a few steps to the right before stopping immediately. He turned around and looked straight at the Golden Flare Hawk and the Flowing Cloud Sword appeared in his hands.
When Mu Yun turned around, the eagle claw was only a hair away from Mu Yun. Mu Yun turned around and grabbed with the eagle claw. Because it was too fast, it couldn't keep up with Mu Yun's turn and reached a big tree.
Kacha! Half of the tree trunk was ripped off by the eagle claw.
"Xia!"
With a cry from an eagle, the Golden Flare Hawk opened its claws and once again rushed towards Mu Yun.
Mu Yun felt his heart go numb as he looked at the big tree with half of its trunk grabbed. If this thing were to land on him, it would definitely feel good.
"Let me see how powerful you are." Mu Yun looked at the approaching sharp claws. His fighting spirit was high. He slightly turned his arm and traces of spirit energy circulated on the blade. The red, orange, and yellow colors quickly changed and merged into one, turning into a broken gray.
He suddenly stomped on the ground with his feet and pierced through the clouds, drawing out a gray line towards the sharp claws that were already within reach.
"Ding!" A loud sound was heard and a huge force was transmitted from the cloud to Mu Yun's hand. Mu Yun quickly retreated a dozen steps before he managed to resolve the huge force.
On the other hand, the Golden Flare Hawk only blocked Mu Yun's attack for a bit. With a flap of its wings, it extended its claws and once again quickly charged towards Mu Yun.
"Hmph, I don't believe that you're useless." After a cold snort, Mu Yun leaped to the side to dodge. Waiting for the Golden Flare Hawk's sharp claws to grab empty air, Mu Yun ruthlessly slashed towards the Golden Flare Hawk's leg.
The Golden Flare Hawk also reacted very quickly, rolling in the air. A few feathers were chopped off, but it dodged Mu Yun's cut off leg.
"Xia!"
With an angry roar, the Golden Flare Hawk opened its sharp mouth and peck at Mu Yun. Its speed was so fast that no one could react in time.
Mu Yun was unable to dodge in time and hurriedly took two steps back, but he only dodged to the back to avoid being hit by the dagger. The beak was like a dagger, piercing straight into Mu Yun's shoulder, leaving a deep bloody hole.
The Golden Flare Hawk, on the other hand, did not stop. After its successful attack, its two sharp claws immediately grabbed towards Mu Yun's abdomen.
Seeing that the sharp claws were about to grab onto his abdomen, Mu Yun couldn't dodge anymore. He knew that he needed to be calm more at this time, because if he wasn't calm at this moment, he might lose his life.
The spirit energy in his hands rotated crazily, and with a sudden move, the clouds drew a gray arc in the air, straight towards the Golden Flare Hawk's abdomen.
At this moment, the Golden Flare Hawk only had two choices. Either give up on attacking and defend, then it would lose the chance to kill Mu Yun. It could also continue to attack, but it could also be cut in half by the sword.
This exchange was based on injury for injury, and it was a move Wang Hao had used when he fought with his life on the line. However, it was Mu Yun's victory that time, and it was still unknown who won and who lost this time.
The claws of the Golden Flare Hawk clawed towards Mu Yun's abdomen instinctively moved towards the middle, blocking the fatal strike that was aimed at Mu Yun's abdomen and letting out a light "dang" sound.
Another huge force came from Mu Yun's hand. He borrowed this force to retreat more than a dozen steps back.
Obviously, Mu Yun had won this time, even though he had only temporarily neutralized the Golden Flare Hawk's attack.
"Sure enough, the second level of the Martial Profound Stage is not something I can handle right now. Truly powerful." Mu Yun was breathing heavily as his thoughts raced. He was thinking of all kinds of ways to escape.
However, the Golden Flare Hawk did not give him any time to think. With a flap of its wings, it charged again, attacking Mu Yun.
Right at this moment, a white streak of light rushed towards the Golden Flare Hawk from behind them. Like a shooting star or a flash of lightning, its speed was even faster than the Golden Flare Hawk's.
"Giggle!" The Golden Flare Hawk released a strange cry, its eyes were wide open, it turned around in a hurry, opening its sharp beak, it rushed towards the incoming ray of light, and swallowed it in an instant.
Only then did Mu Yun see that it was a white egg with a little gray dots on it.
"Little falcon, your egg is not tasty at all, I'll give it back to you." A tiny figure appeared on a tree branch not far away. It was the White Crow that Mu Yun did not find just now. At this moment, the White Crow was constantly spitting out saliva, "Pah, pah, that tastes so bad."
The Golden Flare Hawk seemed to understand what the White Crow was saying and looked at it furiously, as if it wanted to swallow the White Crow whole. However, it looked at Mu Yun again and hesitated for a moment. In the end, it silently flapped its wings and left.
Although the Golden Flare Hawk was ferocious and fearless, it still had the unhatched child in its mouth, so it was impossible for it to continue fighting. It was afraid that it would hurt its child during the fight, so it could only endure and leave.
When the Golden Flare Hawk was far away, Mu Yun heaved a sigh of relief. Looking at the bloody hole on his shoulder, blood was still oozing out from it. However, the broken sword had been repaired by the gray fog since he was injured, and it was much better than before.
"Brat, your performance is pretty good. Come with me in the future, I guarantee you a good meal." The White Crow flew over and landed on a tree branch beside Mu Yun, looking down on him.
"F * ck off." Mu Yun swallowed a simple word before he turned around and walked out of the forest.
He finally understood that the words' seizing the nest 'and' robbing the child 'were all fake. It was made up by this crow. Its purpose was to let him lure the Golden Flare Hawk away and then steal the egg for himself.
"Little brat Mu Yun, don't be so stingy. If worst comes to worst, we can call you over to go with us next time." The White Crow followed and flew up as they chattered on and on, "I realized that our teamwork is flawless."
