Chapter 252: Gold Dragon Boat
Indeed, the clothes which Lei Shan’er was holding was extremely beautiful; especially the flas.h.i.+ng lightning, adding on a layer of beauty to the set of clothes. Because the Lightning Cry tree was a type of Lightning spiritual wood, the Lightning Eagles loved to stay in them to most. The biggest speciality they had was that they carried with them lightning bolts.
However, clothes were created for humans, and furthermore SongZhong was not a Lightning Eagle. How would he be able to endure the lightning bolts on them? Thus, after he saw the set of clothes, he replied with a bitter laughter, “Shan’er, wouldn’t I become a roasted duck if I put this on?”
Lei Shan’er was first stunned before coming to a realization, “Ai yah yah, I forgot. It’s alright, we have other kinds of leaves!”
As she said that, Lei Shan’er threw the clothes made from lightning leaves aside and took out another pile of leaves, quickly making a set of clothes for SongZhong. Then, she revealed it to him as though she was displaying jewelry.
As SongZhong looked at it, he realized that were small holes on the set of clothes, intentionally poked by Lei Shan’er. Thus, he asked with a bitter laughter, “Why are there holes all over? What are they for?”
“So it’s more cooling!” Lei Shan’er widened her eyes in shock as she said, “Little elder brother, don’t you know that the Eastern Ocean is extremely hot. If you don’t poke holes all over, you will perspire for sure!”
“This, it’s alright if there are holes on the upper half. Why are there holes on the bottom half as well?” SongZhong asked with a bitter expression.
“Your a.s.s is so big, of course you will need some circulation!” Lei Shan’er replied confidently.
“This, I don’t think that’s necessary!” SongZhong said with a bitter laughter, “Anyway, you should make a pair of pants without holes!”
“Why?” Lei Shan’er asked in doubt.
“Err~” As SongZhong heard that, he did not know how to reply her.
As Lei Shan’er heard that, she replied in grievance, “Little elder brother, do you not like the clothes which I made?”
“No no!” As SongZhong saw that she was almost crying, he shouted in shock, “I like it, of course I like it! Bring it over, I will wear it now!”
As Lei Shan’er heard that, she burst into smiles and handed SongZhong the clothes full of holes. SongZhong then received it bitterly and put it on under the sheets. He then climbed off the bed awkwardly. At the same time, a gust of wind blew past, making him feel cooling both in front and behind. It made him think of a phrase; it is really cold for wind to blow your little chick!
SongZhong just could not take it and hurriedly picked up a pile of leaves to cover his crotch. Only then did he let out a heave of relief as he said to Lei Shan’er, “Shan’er, can you bring me around?”
As Lei Shan’er saw SongZhong’s weird actions, she only frowned and did not ask further. Instead, she replied without hesitation, “Alright, let’s go! I’ll bring you out. This is my bedroom which is also at the peak of Lightning Cry Mountain. Lightning Cry Island is right on the outside!”
As Lei Shan’er explained, she brought SongZhong out of the room. In that instant, SongZhong was overwhelmed by the scenery he saw.
It turned out that the Lightning Cry Mountain was a hundred thousand feet high with a steep terrain and narrow ridgelines. There were countless of Lightning Cry Trees growing all over the mountain and Lei Shan’er’s bedroom was right at the peak of the mountain. As SongZhong looked down from the railing, he could see that the island was filled with Lightning Eagles. Some were big, others small and there were over ten thousand of them present. They enjoyed themselves on the island, sometimes flying out into the ocean to catch a fish or two with a lightning bolt. The Lightning Eagles were all dancing around him alive with many Lightning Eagles younglings in their nests chirping with their parents there to feed them. It was just like the scenery of an utopia.
While SongZhong had seen the majestic view of 10,000 Lightning Eagles flying before, it was not as shocking as the scene in front of him now. So, it seems that the brutal Lightning Eagles also had such a caring side to them.
As Lei Shan’er saw that, she could not help but ask curiously, “Little elder brother, how is my Lightning Eagle Island?”
“Good, I have never imagined the view to be so spectacular!” SongZhong replied in awe.
“Hehe!” As Lei Shan’er heard that, she replied in delight, “This place isn’t considered too bad, filled with Lightning Cry Trees, being the most important provider of Lightning type spiritual wood in the Eastern Ocean. There are many thousand year old trees here which have been pre-ordered by the seniors from the other clans. With them taking care of us, our Lightning Eagle Island can have a good life in the Eastern Ocean!”
As SongZhong heard that, he could not help but laugh, “If that’s the case, can the homeless me come stay at your place?”
“Aiyah, I would not dare to keep you!” Lei Shan’er waved her hands anxiously, “I had already reported your news to the higher ups. They will send someone to fetch you not too long later!”
“Fetch me?” As SongZhong heard that, his face changed, “Shan’er, what have you done?”
“Nothing much. Little elder brother has the royal bloodline and should not be so pitiful. You must definitely be well taken care of by our Eastern Ocean for sure. I would definitely not dare to conceal such a large matter, thus I had already reported this matter up!” Lei Shan’er then questioned, “Did I do something wrongly?”
As SongZhong heard that, he became depressed as he thought to himself, ‘You are indeed wrong, I don’t have any royal bloodline but am only a human cultivator. You are only of the 5th grade and may not be able to tell. But if you send me into the inner parts of the Eastern Ocean Empire to see the 6th or even 7th grade demonic beasts, those old monsters may probably see through my disguise. If that’s the case, I will definitely be sliced into pieces by them for sure!’
Thinking about this, SongZhong realized that he cannot stay here for any longer. Thus, he replied with an apologetic laughter, “Haha, you are not wrong. It is just that I do not like to meet strangers. So, it’s best I leave first!” As he said that, SongZhong wanted to fly away.
But as Lei Shan’er heard that, she hugged SongZhong’s arms and began to cry and whine, “I don’t want little elder brother to leave, I don’t want little elder brother to leave!”
Seeing how Lei Shan’er was crying like a child, SongZhong did not feel good in his heart. However, his own life was in danger and it was not the time for he to bother about all these.
Thus, SongZhong hardened his heart and asked, “Shan’er, won’t we still be separated if you send me to the Eastern Ocean Empire?”
“We won’t! Shan’er will definitely accompany you!” Lei Shan’er replied anxiously.
As SongZhong heard that, he almost fainted on the spot. Seeing that this excuse of his wasn’t useful, he said again, “But what if those old fellows lock us up?”
