935 Tempest-thunder Golden Hawk! (2/2)

Ye Xiao thought for a long time and then suddenly thought of something.

Three thousand years earlier, there was a supreme master cultivator in Qing-Yun Realm. He was called Peerless Man. He was like a shooting star, shining in the realm for a short time, splendid but short-lived.

Peerless Man had only showed himself in the martial world for three years.

However, in the three years, he defeated every cultivator in the realm. The recognized No. 1 cultivator at the time was defeated by him with only three moves.

After three years, he just disappeared. Nobody knew where he went.

In the entire Qing-Yun Realm, nobody knew this man's name. However, they all knew that wherever Peerless Man went, there were always two huge golden hawks following him.

Every time when the golden hawks showed up, there would be thunder and wind!

Golden hawks bring tempest-thunder!

There was records about this in the history book in Cold Moon Palace.

It must be that Peerless Man who wrote the words on the rock!

[The great man didn't die after defeating everybody in the realm. He lived on this mountain that nobody knew about.]

[This mountain is forty-eight thousand meters high… It should be the highest mountain in Qing-Yun Realm indeed…]

[The two golden hawks that followed the great man must be Tempest-thunder Golden Hawks. This one here must be their child…]

Ye Xiao thought, [However, something is wrong. The time. It doesn't make sense. The great man lived three thousand years ago. It says he stayed in this place for fifteen years until they laid the egg of the child hawk… Why is this silly hawk just seventeen years old?]

That was so unreasonable.

Ye Xiao couldn't think through it. So he read the latter part of the text again. 'Tempest-thunder golden hawk, species from the outer world. Only lightnings can make it hatch. The day of birth only depends on heaven's will.' He thought for a long time and finally arrived to a somehow ridiculous but in fact quite reasonable conclusion.

That was…

This golden hawk wasn't hatched by the two golden hawks in the old days. After they laid the egg… they put the egg somewhere. In that special place, lightnings would strike on the egg frequently.

It absorbed the power from the lightning. After a long long time, the egg hatched…

If the child hawk was only seventeen years old, then it must have been left in the world for about three thousand years as an egg!

[The hawk was hatched after being stricken by lightnings for three thousand years?]

[Un-freaking-believable…]

Ye Xiao's eyes started to twist.

[That Peerless Man was so reckless. He actually left a golden hawk egg in the world and that's it? Wouldn't he be afraid that maybe the egg could roll off the cliff or something?]

[What about the weather? What if it was too cold for it to hatch?]

[What if some beast ate it?]

[Okay. It hatched. But what was the baby hawk supposed to eat when it was just hatched? How did it live?]

[He actually didn't care about all these. He just lived his casual and beautiful life and cared about nothing.]

”'Life and death, god will plan'. I see why he wrote this.” Ye Xiao looked at the hawk in pity.

[You poor little thing. You don't know you were abandoned, do you?]

[Look at you. I know you want to show me something good about you, but you are showing your poor childhood to me… Do you know that…]
