Chapter 136: Old Memories Resurfacing (1/2)

With the Green Flame Eagle at the center, the Phoenix King Valley took the lead and formed an encirclement around it with a 1000 mile radius. The members of the Palace of Brilliance Resurgence and the princes were among the people surrounding the Green Flame Eagle. When Bai Luochu arrived, her attention was placed on the Green Flame Eagle instead of the factions present.

The Green Flame Eagle was entirely green in color and it was massive. Right now, it could already cover the sky before it extended its wings. It was clear that the Green Flame Eagle was giving birth as it released pitiful groans from time to time. During this crucial moment, no one dared to make a move on it. They glared at it like a tiger watching its prey. They were probably also afraid to take action in case they became a delicious meal for the Green Flame Eagle.

Bai Luochu had a Green Flame Eagle mount in her previous life, thus, she wasn’t as anxious when facing this beast before her. However, that couldn’t be said for everyone else. Right now, Bai Luochu’s eyes were slightly narrowed as she sized up the Green Flame Eagle. The more she looked at it, the more familiar she felt. However, she couldn’t remember where she had seen it before.

In the beginning, the Green Flame Eagle was prostrating and from Bai Luochu’s angle, she could only see the front and couldn’t see its abdomen and talons. In the next moment, the Green Flame Eagle changed positions and it revealed its gorgeous flame-like talons. A sudden realisation struck Bai Luochu.

Bai Luochu’s thoughts drifted back to her previous life, when Lu Wenshu had been accompanying her every day.

...

It was a usual day for Bai Luochu as she scoured the mountains for herbs. During her search, she casually looked around for spirit beasts she could set up contracts with. As the saying goes, ‘it’s not harmful for one to possess more skills’. The same could be said for owning spirit beasts.

Bai Luochu was deep in the forest when she heard a strange voice. When the voice appeared, the Green Flame Eagle who formed a contract with her started to turn restless. Bai Luochu became curious as the Green Flame Eagle had the same personality as her, cold and aloof. She didn’t understand why it was behaving in such a weird manner. Bai Luochu pondered over it for a moment and thought of a possibility. She quickly used the Heaven and Earth Contract to transmit her thoughts into her Green Flame Eagle’s mind, “Is that a cry for help from another Green Flame Eagle? Is it in danger?”

As soon as Bai Luochu asked the question, her Green Flame Eagle released a loud cry. Without wasting a single moment, she called out to Lu Wenshu before heading straight for the source of the sound.

Her determination was rewarded and Bai Luochu arrived just on time. However, when she looked at the scene in front of her, a trace of terror crept up her heart.

There was a python the size of an adult’s thigh trying to swallow a young Green Flame Eagle. Due to its tiny physique, half of its body was already swallowed by the python. The calls of the Green Flame Eagle became weaker and weaker as the mouth of the python slowly closed around its body.

Bai Luochu didn’t hesitate to offer her assistance. She circulated the spirit qi into her palm and seven swords were formed as they shot straight towards the python. As the swords landed on the snake, it started to wriggle about in pain as it collapsed onto the ground. Due to its size, the ground trembled slightly and soil flew into the air as its humongous body slammed down onto the earth.

When Bai Luochu saw the python crashing down, she quickly went over and sliced open the body and head of the python, rescuing the young Green Flame Eagle. As soon as she completed her rescue mission, she could feel the Green Flame Eagle in her body calming down.
