Chapter 160

Yan Kexing glanced down at the white-shouldered eagle, which remained motionless, as timid as a quail, showing no trace of its earlier Shi Wen.

Shi Wen seeing Yan Kexing, Shi Wen's panic subsided somewhat, and he was now in a better mood to examine the white-shouldered eagle. Before leaving, he even joked, "I thought this guy would be quite big, but it's not even as big as our goose."

Yan Kexing: "It just has a large wingspan, strong bones, and sharp claws and beak. In reality, it's not very heavy, and its fighting ability isn't as terrifying as humans think."

Shi Wen looked at the white-shouldered eagle and said, "Indeed."

The white-shouldered eagle is no longer the focus; Shi Wen is eager to experiment with his new wings.

He dared not try it in the main courtyard, for fear that he might accidentally smash himself against the wall.

He simply ran out to the large meadow.

The commotion was so loud that all the dogs came out in fright.

Before they could even look at the white-shouldered eagle being held by Yan Kexing, their eyes were first drawn to Shi Wen's wings.

Xing Wa, Fu Wa, and several other dogs showed signs of fear, but despite this, they did not back away.

Shi Wen tried it a few times on the grass and found that the wings did indeed propel him, but the propulsion was not so obvious, at least not as helpful as before.

He paddled around for a while, feeling like he was just dog-paddling in the air.

Aside from being able to float slightly, it serves no other purpose and is completely illogical.

Shi Wen looked at Yan Kexing dejectedly. "It's no use."

Yan Kexing: "It's probably because your Abilities level isn't high enough, and your wings aren't big enough, so we can't help you fly directly into the sky for now."

Shi Wen, "I see. When will it be fully grown?"

Yan Kexing: "I don't know, maybe we'll have to eat Variant Ingredients for another two years?"

The two tried it on the grass for a while, Shi Wen quickly lost interest.

Shi Wen looked at her two wings and said, "I think I can't shrink back anymore."

Yan Kexing handed him his coat. "Put on your clothes first. Will you feel uncomfortable wearing them?"

"There's a slight feeling of pressure," Shi Wen carefully, "But it's bearable; there's nothing too unusual."

Yan Kexing: "Let's go back inside and talk about it."

After returning to their room, they sent messages to all parties involved.

The main task is to report the matter of the wings to the Abnormal Affairs Bureau.

As for the white-shouldered eagle, just tell Zhou Hongzhong.

Zhou Hongzhong and his group lived relatively close by and arrived quickly by car.

Shi Wen had changed back into normal clothes, but now he was wearing loose-fitting ones that wouldn't constrict his wings or cause him any discomfort.

Zhou Hongzhong was completely oblivious to his strange behavior, his attention entirely focused on the white-shouldered eagle in his hand. "That's amazing! How did you even catch it?"

Shi Wen, "You just caught it like that? Luck."

Zhou Hongzhong: "Then we'll take it back. We'll attach a locator later, check it, and if there are no problems, we'll put it in a more distant place."

Shi Wen, no longer caring about his past grievances with the white-shouldered eagle, said, "Suit yourself. Just make sure it stops ravaging our ranch."

Zhou Hongzhong: "We will intensify our efforts in education; if that doesn't work, we'll think of another way."

The white-shouldered eagle in Zhou Hongzhong's arms finally came to its senses and cried out at Shi Wen.

Zhou Hongzhong was also puzzled as to why the white-shouldered eagle had suddenly become so agitated. "What's wrong with this guy?"

Shi Wen stared at the white-shouldered eagle and said, "I don't know, maybe it's hungry."

Chapter 160

The white-shouldered eagle was taken away by Zhou Hongzhong, who kept it in a cage.

In the evening, Zhou Hongzhong told Shi Wen, "We've sent that white-shouldered eagle to the G Province National Zoo for breeding, so it shouldn't bother you again for a while."

Shi Wen, whose attention was now entirely focused on his wings, replied somewhat absentmindedly, "That's great."

Zhou Hongzhong: "It's strange, the leaders specifically instructed that the white-shouldered eagle should stay in the zoo for more than six months. I wonder what the reasoning behind that is?"

Shi Wen, "Perhaps the breeding task is quite demanding?"

He then thought of the ram Eight Treasures that his family had bred back then. They had no experience when they first bred it, and it was really tough on Eight Treasures.

Zhou Hongzhong: "Possibly. This white-shouldered eagle has a rather strange personality; it keeps calling out at your ranch, I don't know what it's calling out for?"

Shi Wen, "This white-shouldered eagle has a very strange personality. Captain Zhou, I have to go now, I have other things to do."

Zhou Hongzhong: "Okay, you guys go ahead and get busy. We'll talk again when we have time."

Shi Wen threw it on the table and called to Yan Kexing, "I feel like my wings are really sore and weak. Can you come over and check if there's anything wrong?"

Yan Kexing lifted his clothes to examine him closely.

His back muscles were smooth and graceful. His wings were actually very small, only about half the size of Yan Kexing's palm. From a distance, Shi Wen like a tattoo, but it wasn't very noticeable.

Yan Kexing out and gently pressed the muscles at the base of his wing. His muscles twitched, and he couldn't help but frown.

Shi Wen gritted his teeth and didn't cry out, but Yan Kexing could tell from his expression and twitching muscles that he was in pain.

Yan Kexing: "How do you feel now? Still feeling sore and weak?"

Shi Wen, "Yes, there's that kind of soreness and weakness in the knees after overexertion, a twitching sensation that's very noticeable."

Although the feeling wasn't pain or itching, it was extremely agonizing, and he felt his heart clenching with each beat.

Yan Kexing inside and brought back a bottle. "I'll wipe it for you."

As he spoke, Yan Kexing opened the bottle cap, poured out the oil, heated it up, and massaged Shi Wen.

The oil had a unique, refreshing fragrance as soon as it was poured out. When Yan Kexing warmed it by rubbing his hands together and then pressed them against the oil, Shi Wen immediately felt the spasms in his back muscles subside.
