A Child's Failure to Learn Is the Father's Fault. You Get Out There Too
"Master, what happened? Why so suddenly?"
A moment later, figures appeared one after another in the hall.
The middle-aged man didn't speak immediately, but kept looking into the distance.
Once everyone had arrived, he flicked his hand, pointed at the few teenagers on the ground who were attracting everyone's attention, and said...
"Those lads went in and stole the egg of that big red bird."
"Moreover, the big red bird has now spotted us and is chasing after us."
These words, once spoken, caused an immediate uproar, like a pebble dropped into a calm lake; no one present could remain composed.
Almost all eyes were on the boys, filled with shock, disbelief, anger, and a touch of fear.
The middle-aged man glanced at everyone's reactions and spoke up to remind them.
"The eggs of that big red bird were originally part of our plan, to use the act of stealing or destroying the eggs to draw hatred towards the Cheng Clan."
"Based on the strength that the giant red bird displayed last time, it could easily inflict heavy damage on the Cheng Clan in its rage. When we make our move then, we will surely be able to annihilate the Cheng Clan."
"I don't know how these kids managed to do something so difficult, but now, this trouble that should have fallen on the Cheng Clan has become our problem."
As soon as the words were spoken, a voice immediately rang out from among the powerful figures.
"It's simply impossible for those kids to steal the big red bird's eggs and actually succeed."
"How could it be such a coincidence that they actually did it? This can't be explained by luck alone, can it?"
These words immediately raised strong suspicions on the faces of many people present.
"That's right, with their strength, how could they possibly have managed to steal this bird egg?"
Others, however, had cold expressions as they sized up the teenagers and spoke up.
"This must be a conspiracy by the Cheng Clan."
At this moment, the head of the Jiang Clan spoke up.
"Now is not the time to discuss these things; the big red bird has already arrived."
Everyone quickly turned their heads to look in the direction he was looking, and sure enough, they could vaguely see a red figure in the distance.
"So what do we do now? Fight this big red bird?"
Someone frowned and spoke up.
"Given the strength of this Great Red Bird, if we were to go toe-to-toe with him, our fate would probably be no better than that of the Cheng Clan."
The head of the family spoke up.
That egg cannot be kept.
"Send the eggs out first."
After saying that, he turned his gaze to another person and said...
"Prepare some rare and precious herbs, and release them along with them."
The man nodded and asked.
"Approximately how much?"
"Take everything from Tianyao Pharmacy out."
Upon hearing this, everyone present reacted quickly, and some even spoke up.
"Master, this is far too much."
"What else can we do?"
The patriarch snorted coldly.
"The patriarch just told me he's going into seclusion to focus on his breakthrough; don't disturb him for the next two days under any circumstances."
"Two days, just two days, only one day has passed, and this has already happened."
By the end, the man's voice was almost a shout.
Everyone fell silent.
They were mostly aware of the situation regarding the big red bird.
Although the price we're paying right now is quite high, it's all worth it as long as it brings peace and tranquility.
After all, if it really comes down to a head-on confrontation, even if they can hold out, the Cheng Clan probably won't let them.
At this moment, the figure of the large red bird was getting closer and closer.
At that moment, someone suddenly spoke.
"Master, this great red bird has a violent temper, and now that it involves bird eggs, I'm afraid it will only become more furious."
"Simply returning the egg to him and providing some rare and precious herbs probably won't quell the anger."
Upon hearing this, the head of the family looked at him and said.
Do you have any other thoughts?
The man nodded and immediately pointed to the group of teenagers.
"You must take responsibility for your own mistakes."
"Let them out. If the big red bird is willing to let them go, then let them go."
Upon hearing this, the faces of the boys immediately turned extremely ugly.
One of them exclaimed in surprise and anger.
"Aren't we members of the Jiang Clan?"
The man frowned and snorted coldly.
"When you were preparing to do this, why didn't you think of the Jiang Clan?"
"How did we know that the big red bird would find it so quickly?"
At this moment, another middle-aged man, who bore a striking resemblance to one of the boys, spoke up.
"Jiang Xiong, that's enough."
"They're just kids; everyone makes mistakes sometimes."
"That is."
The other person also spoke up.
"Isn't the purpose of building power for future generations?"
"They have to bear the consequences of such a small mistake all by themselves. If word gets out, who knows what kind of laughingstock they'll become?"
Jiang Xiong snorted coldly.
"Both of your children are inside, so you'll definitely say that."
"That's perfect. If a son is not taught, it is the father's fault."
"If your children are not properly disciplined and Courting Death disaster upon their clan, then you fathers will all be exiled."
"As long as you can survive, the Lineage will do everything in its power to save you afterwards."
"Jiang Xiong, you've gone mad!"
One of the first two to speak roared, and his aura surged forth.
At that moment, the head of the family slammed his hand on the table, causing the entire house to shake.
Then his voice rang out.
"Let's do as Jiang Xiong said."
"Don't say I'm being heartless, these little brats are all out here."
"As for their fathers, let them go if they want!"
As soon as the words were spoken, the expressions of several figures present turned extremely ugly.
Before they could react, the middle-aged man raised his hand and waved it.
Instantly, the figures of those teenagers appeared in mid-air.
The next moment
"Brush--"
The grand formation activated, transforming into a solid barrier that enveloped the entire Lineage while simultaneously isolating the youths from the outside, along with the egg they had stolen.
Meanwhile, the great red bird they spoke of was already approaching.
"Brush"
A wisp of power emanated from the Daniao, which rolled the egg back onto its body and hid it among its feathers.
The next moment, his head drooped slightly, and his gaze was fixed on those teenagers.
For a moment, the boys seemed to be frozen in place, their bodies completely still, only their changing expressions revealing what it meant to be ashen-faced.
The giant red bird stared at the boys for a moment, but did not attack them. Instead, it turned around and headed back the way it came.
Seeing this, all the powerful members of the Jiang Clan present were overjoyed, and some even breathed a sigh of relief.
"This big red bird is quite easy to coax."
Just then, the large red bird, which had already turned and flown away for some distance, suddenly turned back.
After a brief pause, the aura that seemed to have begun to recede suddenly erupted, even more intense than before, and then began to surge wildly.
On its two giant claws beneath it, golden light shone like inscriptions.
Seeing this scene and sensing the change in the aura, the Jiang Clan patriarch froze on the spot, his pupils shrinking as he murmured softly.
"That previous attack, could it be...?"
"Are you pretending to be weak?"
