The Peerless Tang Sect’s Sun and Moon Glory - Chapter 293 Emerald Demon Bird (4k)
When the morning sun first emerged, the branches and leaves on the tall and sturdy trees divided the warm sunrise into fine golden spots.
Xu Zihuang and Ning Tian were walking on the bluestone floor steps among the mountains and forests. Looking up, you can see the flat and empty training platform on the top of the hill not far away.
There was still plenty of time, so the two of them were in no hurry to rush there.
Ning Tian leaned on Xu Zihuang, with a heart-stirring smile on her pretty face. With hazy eyes, she stretched out her jade hand and raised it to her head. The mottled light and shadow slipped through the gaps between her slender fingers and fell on her beautiful face.
For ordinary people, this is a game they played as children. But since she was born, she has shouldered the important responsibility of inheriting the position of the sect leader, but this is the first time she has tried this. Of course, the most important thing is that she has someone she loves by her side.
“This is a bit unlike you.” Xu Zihuang led Ning Tian and slowed down.
Ning Tian looked sideways at Xu Zihuang and said with a smile: “Aren’t all girls like this? Senior Sister Xiaoya is right. I have suppressed myself too much since I was a child and lost a lot of my girlish nature. Occasionally I I also get jealous and want to act coquettishly in front of the people I like.”
“Is this all what Senior Sister Xiaoya taught you?” Xu Zihuang responded with a smile, his tone gentle but firm.
“Actually, what Senior Sister Xiaoya said is true. With me by your side in the future, you don’t have to shoulder the heavy responsibility of the sect alone like before. Just be yourself.”
Hearing Xu Zihuang’s words, although the smile on Ning Tian’s face did not diminish, his nose felt sour, and his aqua blue eyes couldn’t help but be covered with a layer of mist.
Being herself, something so common and natural, was a luxury for her before.
It wasn’t until she met Yu Tianhuang that her boring and monotonous life became colorful.
Ning Tian stopped and hugged Xu Zihuang tightly with affection in his eyes. Then he closed his eyes and stood on his toes.
The sound of cicadas chirping and birds chirping echoed in the woods, and at the same time there was the sound of two people breathing together.
After a long time, the two of them continued to walk towards the training ground. But this time the fit was tighter.
Ning Tian’s red lips and jade neck made a swallowing motion, swallowing the saliva that absorbed Xu Zihuang’s breath. But then she noticed Xu Zihuang’s weird expression, and her cheeks became slightly hot.
In the past, she would do it afterward to reflect on it, but today she was moved by affection and couldn’t help but do it in front of Xu Zihuang.
However, the children of the big family are the children of the big family after all. Although they are shy and unbearable in their hearts, they still look dignified and graceful on the surface.
“Tianhuang, since you have allowed me to be myself, I admit that I care a little about what you told Senior Brother Xu before about the senior students I met at the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy.”
Naturally, Xu Zihuang would not deliberately undermine Ning Tian, so he smiled and took the initiative to tell him about Orange and Keke.
“Those two seniors are called Orange and Keke. They are students taught by my mentor at the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy…”
Ning Tian listened thoughtfully and silently, his shy mood gradually dissipating.
With the two deliberately slowing down, it was already half an hour later when they arrived at the training ground.
There were seven people in total on the training ground. Wu Feng, Xiao Xiao, Nanmen Yun’er, Dai Huabin and Xie Huanyue are the five newly promoted inner court disciples, as well as an inner court teacher and an inner court assistant.
The teacher in the inner courtyard was Wang Yan, and the assistant teacher was a female student from the inner courtyard who looked to be 27 or 28 years old. This female student’s figure is similar to Zhang Lexuan, the senior sister in the inner courtyard, but her face is thinner, her eyes are as black as paint, the expression on her face is very soft, her appearance is not stunningly beautiful, and she is a more attractive type.
Xu Zihuang also knew something about this female student from the inner courtyard.
Her name is Han Ruoruo, and she is the only Contra-level powerhouse among the students in the inner courtyard of Shrek Academy. In terms of qualifications and age, he is still above Zhang Lexuan, but his cultivation is slightly inferior. From the fact that she usually calls each other directly by name when she gets along with Zhang Lexuan, it is enough to confirm her status in the inner courtyard of Shrek Academy.
Wang Yan and Han Ruoruo stood next to the training ground, occasionally looking at each other, and the smiles on both sides’ faces would be a little brighter. Apparently they get along very well.
Xiao Xiao, Wu Feng and Xie Huanyue were also beside Wang Yan and the other two, while the remaining Dai Huabin and Nanmen Yun’er were in the center of the training ground, looking like they were preparing for a spirit battle.
“Teacher Wang, long time no see, how are you lately?” Xu Zihuang waved to Wang Yan from a distance, and then nodded to Han Ruoruo.
“Hello, Senior Sister Han.”
The conversation with Han Ruoruo was suddenly interrupted by Xu Zihuang’s voice, and Wang Yan looked a little embarrassed. After all, his purpose in contacting Han Ruoruo was impure.
But after this brief moment of embarrassment, the expression on his face was instantly replaced by surprise.
“Tianhuang?! I heard Mr. Xuan say that you are practicing in seclusion, aren’t you? Why are you here?”
Being able to teach an outstanding student like Yu Tianhuang is what he is most proud of in his life. And with the experience of the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Competition, the relationship between the two has always been harmonious.
“Cultivation just ended this morning. I heard from Ning Tian that you are going to give them guidance and teaching today, so let’s come over and have a look.” Xu Zihuang responded.
“Teacher Wang, you wouldn’t mind if I came over to listen, would you?”
Wang Yan smiled and scolded: “How come? Come here first, just to test your boy’s cultivation progress in the past few years.”
Between words, Xu Zihuang and Ning Tian had already arrived in front of Wang Yan and Han Ruoruo. Ning Tian also bowed slightly to Wang Yan and Han Ruoruo.
After so many consecutive tutorials, Han Ruoruo and Ning Tian were very familiar with each other, and her eyes mostly stayed on Xu Zihuang.
“I heard from Le Xuan that your talent is even higher than hers. You were appointed by Mr. Mu as the heir to the Poseidon Pavilion, so I’m very curious about you.” Han Ruoruo smiled gently.
“After Yoona and Hua Bin finish their competition, why don’t you go up and give it a try?”
Xu Zihuang smiled calmly and said: “Senior Sister Han has said so, so I have no reason to refuse.”
Han Ruoruo turned to Wang Yan, who nodded towards her. There is an extremely tacit understanding between every move.
Wu Feng stood obediently behind Ning Tian with his head lowered and changed from his usual bad temper. With Ning Tian’s warning, no matter how much disgust and resentment she had towards Yu Tianhuang in her heart, she did not dare to show it.
On the other side of Wu Feng is Xie Huan Yue.
Several years have passed, Xie Huanyue’s figure has grown taller, and her appearance has also changed a lot. However, his so-called tall figure is completely developing towards a spherical shape.
Xie Huanyue showed a kind smile to Xu Zihuang.
There was never any bad blood between the two of them.
Xu Zihuang responded with the same gesture and said hello to Xiao Xiao again.
“Xiao Xiao, it seems that you should be the first one besides me in our class to be admitted to the inner courtyard.”
Xiao Xiao shyly avoided Xu Zihuang’s gaze and spoke in a soft voice.
“Actually, I only entered the inner courtyard half a year ago.”
As the two grew older, they had no contact for a long time. Xiao Xiao originally thought that her vague affection for Yu Tianhuang would gradually dissipate, but it turned out that she had taken it for granted. Such an excellent and perfect Yu Tianhuang is unimaginably attractive to the opposite sex of the same age.
At least, she couldn’t remain calm when facing Yu Tianhuang.
Looking at Ning Tian who was behaving intimately with Yu Tianhuang, a ridiculous thought even came to her mind. If she had mustered up the courage, would she be the one standing next to Yu Tianhuang?
Nanmen Yun’er in the center of the venue also showed a gentle smile towards Xu Zihuang. Compared to Xiao Xiao, she looked much more relaxed and generous.
As for Dai Huabin, although the expression on his face is still a bit cold, he has already calmed down and his eyes are burning with fighting spirit. He knew that he was not Yu Tianhuang’s opponent yet, but he wanted to know the real gap between the two.
Ning Tian hugged Xu Zihuang’s arms around his chest without hesitation, but out of the corner of his eye, he caught Xiao Xiao’s strange behavior. Xiao Xiao, who has twin martial souls, can indeed make her feel threatened.
Not long after, everyone’s eyes focused on the center of the training ground again.
Wang Yan watched Nanmen Yun’er and Dai Huabin take up their positions, and shouted loudly: “Get ready! Although it is just a competition, I still hope that you will show your abilities as much as possible so that I can guide you. The others are me and Ruoruo watch.”
Xie Huanyue narrowed her eyes and said mysteriously: “Just watch, Dai Huabin will definitely suffer a big loss this time.”
“Huh?” Hearing Xie Huanyue’s words, not only others, but also Xu Zihuang were a little surprised.
Among the students admitted to the inner academy this year, Dai Huabin’s soul power level and overall strength should be second only to him.
Ning Tian knowingly explained to Xu Zihuang in a low voice: “Yoon’er behaved very low-key when she was in the outer courtyard. I only heard that her martial spirit had mutated and she was promoted to a core disciple. It took nearly half a month before she was admitted to the inner courtyard. I haven’t seen her actually take action on the matter.”
“start!”
Before Ning Tian finished speaking, Wang Yan had already waved his right hand.
I don’t know if it was because Xu Zihuang’s arrival aroused the fighting spirit in Dai Huabin’s heart, but his mood was particularly high at this time. His fists collided in front of his chest, and the bones throughout his body crackled.
The White Tiger Martial Spirit completed possession in an instant. Two yellow, two purple, and one black, the five optimally matched soul rings appeared along with the pale soul power. White hair crazily emerged from his body, releasing the powerful and domineering White Tiger Spirit, the king of beasts.
The hair all over his body suddenly emitted a strong golden light, his whole body swelled up again, and his whole body’s aura surged. Immediately afterwards, a layer of white halo also enveloped his body.
From the beginning, Dai Huabin directly used his two major amplification soul skills: White Tiger Body Barrier and White Tiger Vajra Transformation.
“Roar!” Amidst the roar of the tiger, Dai Huabin suddenly rushed forward with big strides. The idea that powerful attack type soul masters restrain agile attack type soul masters has been around for a long time. His plan is to suppress Nanmen Yuner forcefully.
At the same time, Nanmen Yoona also moved. His body was light and weightless, turning into a green afterimage to meet Dai Huabin. The speed was so fast that it was difficult for Ning Tian, Xiao Xiao and others to see her figure clearly.
You can only vaguely see the light and shadow of the five soul rings beside Nanmen Yun’er, two yellow, two purple and one black.
So fast!
He has such amazing speed even though he hasn’t used any soul skills yet.
But Xu Zihuang relied on the ability of the Golden Eyes Martial Spirit to capture Nanmen Yun’er’s figure.
Behind Nanmen Yoona, a pair of green wings appeared. But compared to the way he remembered Nanmen Yuner releasing his martial spirit back then, only one other thing had changed about Nanmen Yuner now.
Those were her eyelids. The upper and lower eyelids on both sides of her dark green eyes turned into bright gold, which was extremely magical.
At the same time, something happened to Xu Zihuang’s second martial spirit, and a wave of disgust and disdain stemming from his bloodline and martial spirit emerged in his heart.
“This is……”
“Emerald Demon Bird? Yun’er’s martial spirit is actually the Emerald Demon Bird? No wonder Mr. Song values her so much.” Han Ruoruo, who suddenly understood, answered this question. The Emerald Demon Bird is a particularly rare and ferocious spirit beast. When she and Zhang Lexuan led the disciples of the inner courtyard to go deep into the Star Forest to obtain soul rings, they encountered an emerald demon bird with a thousand years of cultivation.
She wouldn’t admit it.
The emerald demon bird’s cultivation was only three thousand years old, but it caused them a lot of trouble. It is true that this kind of soul beast is too fast and can fly.
“What?! The Emerald Demon Bird?!” Wang Yan was even more shocked. He had not seen this kind of emerald demonic bird with his own eyes like Han Ruoruo, but he had seen records about the emerald demonic bird from the ancient books in the Shrek Library.
Due to his cultivation level, he could not fully see the changes in Nanmen Yun’er’s martial soul release, so he could not recognize it at the first time.
The Emerald Demon Bird is one of the most cruel species among bird soul beasts. Their growth depends on sucking the brains of various creatures. Whether it is soul beasts or humans, they are their targets. The explosive speed when flying over short distances is unmatched by any flying spirit beast.
According to legend, in ancient times, the emerald demon bird caused a huge disaster. At that time, they were still gregarious soul-like beasts. They would often fly over an area, and the brains of all creatures in that area would be sucked out.
Later, it was said that an emerald demon bird king even sucked the brains of a real dragon and eventually evolved into the most terrifying killer of that era. At that time, the Dragon Clan was still ruling the continent. When the real dragon was killed, the furious Dragon Clan concentrated its power and launched a crazy revenge against the Emerald Demon Bird Clan, nearly wiping them out.
So much so that in today’s world, although soul beasts like the Emerald Demon Bird still have a legacy, their existence is probably even rarer than that of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear. And because they are so hated by those powerful soul beasts, the existing emerald demon birds rarely dare to show their heads.
Ning Tian, Xiao Xiao, and Wu Feng also had strange expressions on their faces. The name of a vicious bird like the Emerald Demon Bird is too loud. Even now, there are still legends about the Emerald Demon Bird.
Only Xie Huanyue, who was in the same class as Nanmen Yuner and had known her beforehand, seemed calmer.
He had competed with Nanmen Yun’er in the outer courtyard’s upgrade assessment, and the result was that even the powerful defense of his skin-like martial spirit could not stop the extreme sharpness of Nanmen Yun’er’s martial spirit.
Even though he is a supporting character, the hole he dug still needs to be filled.
