Ling Tian listened to Bai Ju's words, his heart tangled in conflict.
Truthfully, he was somewhat resistant to meeting this legendary father. All these years, he had never even hoped that he had a father.
Deep in his heart, there was even a faint, lingering resentment.
He resented his parents for abandoning him when he was young, resented them for doing nothing.
But when he considered his father's identity and put himself in his place, Ling Tian felt that perhaps there had been helpless reasons beyond their control behind it all.
The abandonment had been so that he could live a better life.
That was why his heart was so conflicted.
Just then.
A piercing eagle cry suddenly rang out above the cliff.
Immediately after, an Azure Eyed Eagle dove down from the clouds. Its sharp talons gleamed with eerie blue-green light as it lunged straight at Ling Tian and Tang Yuan, who had their backs turned.
It had clearly regarded the two of them as prey.
The terrifying aura emanating from the eagle pressed close to the level of four breaths in the Heaven Soul Realm.
The moment Lu Feng and Ye Fan noticed it, fear and wariness appeared on both their faces. Caught off guard, neither of them could easily withstand the force of that dive.
"Courting death!"
At that moment, Bai Ju took half a step forward.
An invisible, terrifying aura surged directly toward the eagle.
The next instant, Lu Feng witnessed a scene that left him dumbfounded and frozen in horror.
That eagle, whose aura had been so violent and ferocious, was actually torn apart mid-dive by invisible blade gleams. Flesh and blood flew everywhere, while black feathers scattered across the sky and drifted in all directions.
"How did he do that!?"
Lu Feng was horrified.
