845 Interesting Events of the Southern Border (2/2)

After a couple of days, Yan'er could bear it no longer. She transformed into a little green sparrow and flew off as she cried out, ”I will go look for food, go on without me, I will catch up with you soon!”

Qin Mu was unable to stop her in time. He could only watch as the little green sparrow quickly flew off into the boundless divine mountains and disappeared amidst the divine rays.

Qin Mu had no choice but to let the dragon qilin continue on their way.

Soon after, the sky suddenly darkened. The group raised their heads only to see a large bird with green wings swooping over. Its wings spanned for miles, and it had razor-sharp claws that looked as though they were forged out of metal and stone. Gripped in its claws was a formidable-looking devil god.

The devil god was more than 100 yards tall and seemed to be a powerful half-god. However, now that he was caught and immobilized by the green bird, he wore a dejected look on his face, as though merely waiting for death to come.

The group was dumbstruck by this sight.

Yan'er's voice emerged from the beak of the green bird, she cried out, ”I found food! Fatty Dragon, you have the biggest appetite. Open your mouth, I will drop this in your mouth!”

The dragon qilin opened his mouth, but upon realizing that he wouldn't be able to stomach it, he shook his head quickly. ”Sister Yan'er, I eat spirit pills, how could I eat meat? Moreover, this devil god is still alive, it's not cooked...”Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.

The green bird folded its wings and landed, rolling the devil god on his back with a single sharp claw. ”Wait, it will be cooked shortly.”

She opened her beak—divine flames raging in her mouth—ready to grill this devil god well-done.

Everyone was stunned at this.

The dragon qilin looked towards Qin Mu. Qin Mu's head started to hurt as he immediately responded, ”Sister Yan'er, we don't eat this.”

The green bird bewilderedly released the devil god and said, ”It's very delicious. When I was young, I ate this a lot. Why don't you try it?”

The devil god shivered in fear, laying flat on the ground and not daring to move even an inch.

Qin Mu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. ”Gods and devils aren't part of our diet. Sister Yan'er, you don't have to waste your efforts on our rations.”

The devil god's gaze flickered as he tried to sneak off. Almost immediately, he was seized by one of the green bird's claws.

Doubtfully, the green bird asked, ”You really don't want to eat this?”

Qin Mu, Celestial Venerable Yu, and the dragon qilin shook their heads in unison. The water qilin hesitated. He had the desire to eat, but since his master also shook his head—being unable to deviate—he had no choice but to shake his head in consensus, thinking to himself, 'What a pity, I have never had the chance to eat gods and devils before...'

The green bird pecked on the devil god, picking him up and swallowing him down as the group watched on in fear. She transformed back into the green-clad dainty girl and leaped onto the head of the dragon qilin moodily.

Cold sweat rolled down the dragon qilin's forehead profusely as he thought to himself, 'Where exactly did Cult Master abduct this girl from? How formidable and brutal...'

Soon enough, the green-clothed girl flew off again and brought back many fruits to feed them. Although the dragon qilin and water qilin didn't like to eat fruits, they forced themselves to anyway.

Finally, they reached the Li River Academy. It was located near the southern seas, and just a few divine mountains away was the territory of the remaining survivors of Crimson Light. They were an extremely powerful race, and as such, this area was considerably tranquil.

Qin Mu went to meet with Chancellor Ba Shan, and just as he expressed his reason for dropping by, he heard the miserable whines of the green bull, who was getting beaten up by the dragon qilin.

Qin Mu pretended not to hear it only to hear the water qilin beating the green bull this time. Celestial Venerable Yu sat before Chancellor Ba Shan tamely, also pretending that he heard nothing.

Chancellor Ba Shan ran out hurriedly and caught the dragon qilin and water qilin beating up the green bull together. His face darkened, and he turned around angrily. ”Junior Brother, hurry up and break up this fight!”

Qin Mu and Celestial Venerable Yu promptly chided them and pulled them apart.

The green bull crawled up and yelled, ”Just you wait! I will ask my godfather to come! You better stay here!” With that, he left angrily.

The dragon qilin and water qilin stood up, putting their hands on their waists and looking proud of themselves as they replied, ”It doesn't make a difference if you ask your godfather to come, even if you ask your grandfather to come, we will still beat you up!”

”I have long found this bull to be an eyesore. Always holding that peony in his mouth and scrunching his bull nose up to the sky!”

Chancellor Ba Shan sighed in relief, turning to Qin Mu. ”You may not know this, but the Li River Academy is different from other academies. We are split into many different skills and factions here. There are my Battle Techniques Faction and Chancellor Yu Zhaoqing's Nature Faction—even Crimson Light Son of God of the Creation Faction comes down to give lessons. These few days, Teacher Heaven Knife and Martial Arts Heavenly Teacher are here together to help forge the city defenses and teach martial arts and knife skills.”

”Grandpa Butcher and Martial Arts Heavenly Teacher Guan Cha are both here?”

Qin Mu was overjoyed to hear this news. Suddenly, he remembered something and probed, ”So who exactly is the green bull's godfather?”

The sound of the dragon qilin and water qilin calling out traveled indoors. The dragon qilin cried out, ”Big Brother Sanduo, I didn't know he was your godson. Please stop hitting me! Senior Brother Sanduo, do you remember how we smoked water pipes together... Big Sister, save me—”

As they were listening to the commotion, a white figure flashed by. A young girl of eight to nine years of age sprinted in and headed straight towards Qin Mu, her white fox tail bobbing around behind her. She suddenly sprinted to Qin Mu's side, circling him as she transformed into a white fox and climbed atop his shoulder. A few of her tails wrapped around his neck, and she climbed onto his head, finally covering his entire face with the rest of the furry white tail.
