Chapter 451: Just Come With Me Obediently
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The choice had been made, and now it was time to decide who would take action.
“It’s definitely you, Golden Feather. After all, your nest is the one that’s been occupied.”
The Golden Feathered Roc had no objections to this.
It just wanted to quickly wake that person up and get him out of there as soon as possible.
They could tell that Gu Qingluan was a Saint, but compared to them, the ninth-grade Saint Beasts, she was much less experienced.
They hadn’t even considered the possibility of not being able to capture her.
Of course, they didn’t want to resort to violence unless absolutely necessary, to avoid any repercussions from that Lord.
The Golden Feathered Roc spread its wings and took off high into the sky. For it, covering dozens of miles was a matter of moments.
Gu Qingluan and Lie Yan were not far away.
In the blink of an eye, both the human and the beast sensed a terrifying aura descending from the sky.
Lie Yan quickly rushed in Gu Qingluan’s direction.
Gu Qingluan raised her head alertly and saw an extremely ma.s.sive Golden Feathered Roc approaching from a distance.
It was the first time she had ever seen such a large Roc in the Cloud Plains Continent.
She felt that the other party was unfathomable.
“It’s the Golden Feathered Roc! One of the three giants of the Death Mountain Range!” Lie Yan rushed to Gu Qingluan’s side and exclaimed.
“It seems to be coming for us! This is bad! It must be because we intruded into its territory and angered it. Master, we need to run!”
Gu Qingluan replied, “It’s too late.”
A strong wind blew, and sand and rocks filled the air.
Gu Qingluan’s black hair and white clothes danced wildly in the tumultuous winds.
She squinted her eyes, standing her ground and remaining on guard.
“Human, 1 mean no harm to you. Just come with me obediently,” the Golden Feathered Roc said as it hovered above Gu Qingluan. Its clear voice carried a hint of arrogance.
It had made an effort to restrain its usual cold and aloof att.i.tude.
In the Golden Feathered Roc’s thoughts, it reasoned that if this human had truly rescued that Lord, her position would certainly be elevated. Right now, there was no need to strain their relationship excessively; otherwise, it could create difficulties to resolve in the future.
Gu Qingluan felt a hint of surprise.
Wasn’t it here to drive them away?
She raised an eyebrow and asked, “Where are we going?”
“You’ll know when we get there. Will you come or not? If you don’t, don’t blame me for using force!”
Gu Qingluan’s mind raced.
While she didn’t know what this ninth-grade Saint Beast wanted, its att.i.tude didn’t seem hostile; instead, it appeared to need her a.s.sistance.
If that was the case…
Gu Qingluan’s lips curled into a smile. “If you want me to go, that’s fine, but you have to answer a question for me first.”
Lie Yan, who was standing nearby, took in a sharp breath.
Could his mistress be negotiating with a ninth-grade Saint Beast?
He hoped she wouldn’t provoke the Golden Feathered Roc.
He quickly glanced at the Golden Feathered Roc.
As expected, the Roc’s eyes widened unbelievably, its aura suddenly becoming imposing, and its voice growing a bit deeper. “You dare to make conditions with me?”
A cultivator who had just entered the Saint Realm was showing such boldness in front of it.
“If you don’t want to answer, that’s fine. I have other matters to attend to, and 1 won’t take that trip with you.”
The Golden Feathered Roc became anxious. “Wait! Did 1 say 1 wouldn’t answer? You’re too impatient, little girl, and quite audacious to dare to make conditions with me! Since I’m in a good mood today, I’ll answer one question for you. Go ahead and ask.”
A faint smile played across Gu Qingluan’s eyes.
It seemed her guess was correct; this Golden Feathered Roc did indeed have a favor to ask of her.
“Have you seen two human Saints in the vicinity in the past few days?”
The Golden Feathered Roc’s eyes gleamed as it scrutinized her sharply. “Yes, someone did come by. What do you want with them?”
She had guessed correctly!
With such a significant disturbance happening here, a ninth-grade Saint Beast couldn’t possibly be unaware.
Gu Qingluan immediately pressed for more information. “Where are they now?”
“First, tell me why you want to find them, and then 1’11 answer you.”
If this young girl was an enemy of the other person, wouldn’t that be like inviting a wolf into their den?
The Golden Feathered Roc certainly didn’t think that this girl could handle that Lord, but if they were to make that Lord think they had teamed up with his enemies to go against him, they would be in a lot of trouble.
So, it had to clarify the situation first and ensure there were no misunderstandings before taking her back to their mountain.
Gu Qingluan found the Golden Feathered Roc’s att.i.tude somewhat peculiar. It had asked the same question twice in a row as if the answer was of great importance.
Could it be colluding with Xiu Yunyi?
