Another Pet Acquired
In fact, for someone who was already at the Divine Realm First Order, killing a bird that was only at the Demigod Realm was extremely easy.
A single punch or a knife could have resolved the situation, but Hua Qiang fought with his opponent for so long because he had his own motives.
One reason is that they don't want to reveal too much of their strength in front of others.
Everyone believed that, given Hua Qiang's age, his maximum potential was at most the eighth or ninth level of the Saint Realm. The fact that he could kill Tie Sihai, a Demigod Realm old man, was either due to luck or because of the high level of his cultivation technique, which allowed him to easily defeat enemies of higher levels.
The second reason was to subdue this flat-headed beast and then keep it as a pet.
This is a flying demon beast, even more powerful than the Flying White Tiger.
The Flying White Tiger was left to Huo Qingtong to protect her personal safety.
I always feel uneasy when I'm not around.
This bird has reached the Demigod Realm and can barely get around.
It's embarrassing to go out without a decent means of transportation.
Upon hearing Hua Qiang's question, Lightning Condor King hurriedly replied, "My lord, I want to live!"
Nonsense, who would want to die if they could live?
Even ants steal food, let alone Lightning Vulture that has painstakingly cultivated to the Demigod Realm.
Hua Qiang's smile widened.
"If you want to live, acknowledge me as your master and sign Master-Servant Contract!"
Lightning Condor King cursed inwardly, but said against his will, "I am willing to serve my master."
An hour later, Hua Qiang sat on the back of the Eagle King and flew to the Cloud Boat.
Everyone looked at Hua Qiang's new ride with envy, their mouths watering.
They want a mount that belongs to the Demigod Realm!
Deep in the sea of clouds.
Three enormous spaceships, like Primordial Giant Beast, floated silently between a precipitous and wondrous floating mountain range.
The mountain range is rugged with strange rocks, and the clouds and mist swirl around it, creating a wonderful fusion of a mysterious fairyland and a perilous wilderness.
These three spaceships hovered there abruptly, as if coveting everything from the past.
On the bow of the largest airship in the middle, a group of fierce-looking thugs were gathered.
The leader was a bald, burly man. He was tall and strong, standing there like a majestic mountain, exuding a chilling aura.
A black eye patch covered his left eye, and beneath it, a long, grotesque diagonal scar snaked along the corner of his eye, resembling a twisted centipede crawling on it, as if telling people about the countless bloody battles he had experienced in the past.
Beside the bald, burly man stood a man with the air of a military strategist.
He was dressed in a black robe and held a feather fan, which he was slowly waving.
Every sway of that feather fan seemed to be plotting some unspeakable conspiracy, his eyes flashing with cunning and sinister light.
Just then, a small and agile airship sped by, and a person jumped off from it.
The man quickly approached the one-eyed bald man, knelt on one knee, and said with an excited yet obsequious expression, "Reporting to the chief, there is a Cloud Boat speeding towards us from a distance of ten miles away."
Judging from the style and imposing presence of that Cloud Boat, it must belong to someone from a major sect, presumably heading to Sky City to participate in the Martial Arts Tournament.
"Hahaha!"
Upon hearing this, the bald, burly man Wei Tianba immediately threw his head back and burst into laughter.
The laughter echoed through the mountains like a booming bell, so loud that the surrounding clouds and mist seemed to dissipate.
"This is the tenth wave we've encountered, and it's another fat fish."
Thanks to Sky City, after this round, we can take a few years off!
His voice was filled with greed and smugness, as if he could already see countless treasures and riches about to fall into his pocket.
"Great Chief is mighty!"
"The Great Leader is so domineering!"
"Our Great Leader is both wise and virtuous, and will unify the Star Sea!"
The surrounding crowd immediately began to flatter him, their obsequiousness evident.
The strategist Sima Zhao stood to the side, a faint smile appearing on his face.
This notorious gang of space pirates had been lying in wait here for a long time, and had already robbed countless treasures, making a fortune for each of them.
At this moment, they were all secretly thinking that once they returned, they would definitely enjoy themselves to the fullest, squandering the wealth they had plundered on fine wine, beautiful women, and all sorts of extravagant pleasures.
Meanwhile, Hua Qiang and his companions were leisurely piloting their Cloud Boat, heading towards the Sky City.
They chatted and laughed all the way, eagerly anticipating the upcoming Martial Arts Tournament.
Little did they know that they had become a plump prey in the eyes of others, waiting to be slaughtered.
Danger was creeping closer and closer to them, but they were completely unaware.
The Cloud Boat carrying Hua Qiang and his companions, as light as a willow leaf, glided smoothly through the vast and boundless sea of clouds.
The people on the boat either closed their eyes to rest or sipped their anticipation for the upcoming Martial Arts Tournament, creating a relaxed and joyful atmosphere.
Suddenly, a colossal Starship, obscuring the sky and blocking the sun, emerged from the clouds ahead like a ghost, rudely blocking their path.
The Starship gleamed with a cold, metallic luster, its cannons standing in rows, exuding a suffocating sense of oppression.
Immediately afterwards, two more Starship slowly emerged from the left and Starship sides of the cloud Cloud Boat, forming a triangle that tightly trapped the Cloud Boat in the middle, like a net tightening around it, a death trap.
The disciple in charge of piloting the Cloud Boat reacted extremely quickly, activating the Cloud Boat's protective shield immediately.
A pale blue light shield instantly enveloped the Cloud Boat, barely creating a safe haven in this perilous sky.
He then immediately dispatched a quick-witted junior brother to inform Sect Master Huo Cangliang and Hua Qiang of this sudden turn of events as quickly as possible.
The man's voice carried a hint of anxiety and tension. "Quickly inform the Sect Master and Supreme Elder Hua Qiang that we have been attacked by space pirates!"
Upon hearing the news, Hua Qiang and Huo Cangliang immediately came to the bow of the ship with solemn expressions.
At this moment, the other disciples also gathered here, each holding a weapon, their eyes burning with anger, staring intently at the three ill-intentioned Starship in front of them.
"Hahaha, you're surrounded! Male girls stand on the left, female girls stand on the right, and those who are neither male nor female stand in the middle."
"Hand over your valuables obediently, and I'll spare your lives!"
An extremely arrogant voice boomed like thunder, shaking the sea of clouds and making people's eardrums ache.
The voice was filled with greed and arrogance, as if it regarded the people on the Cloud Boat as lambs to be slaughtered, to be manipulated at will.
Huo Cangliang's face was gloomy, and his eyes revealed extreme anger.
How did we end up being targeted by those damned bandits?
It seems a bloody battle is inevitable today.
