Chapter 2526: Demon Clan 59
Editor: Henyee Translations
As Gu Chaoyan ventured a short distance, the details became clear—someone was injured. However, it wasn’t a human but the very bird that had sought to peck her to death earlier. Its leg was severely injured, blood steadily trickling from the wound.
Caught in a dilemma, Gu Chaoyan weighed the decision to save or not to save. The demonic beasts on this continent surpa.s.sed her in cultivation, posing a risk if she approached. Yet, standing idly by meant forfeiting any chance of rendering a.s.sistance.
Despite the dangers, she felt compelled to act. After a moment of hesitation, Gu Chaoyan decided to save the injured bird.
Sighing, she carefully examined its injuries, extracting holy spring water from her s.p.a.ce to cleanse the wounds. Utilizing herbs from her s.p.a.ce, she applied medicinal treatment and bandaged the injuries as best as she could.
With her efforts completed, Gu Chaoyan accepted the uncertain outcome.
Turning to leave, she suddenly recalled the bird’s potential hunger once it woke. Given its incapacitated state, hunting for food would be impossible. Deciding to leave some fruits behind, she took a few steps before departing.
As she turned away, the bird emitted a chirp, breaking the silence.
Gu Chaoyan turned around and found the bird staring at her motionlessly.
“I’ve bandaged your wound and left some food for you. Do what you can.” Uttering these words, Gu Chaoyan aimed to leave.
Suddenly, the bird rose and flew toward her, catching Gu Chaoyan off guard. Despite her protests, she found herself being pursued by yet another bird on this troublesome continent.
Angrily running away, she shouted, “I didn’t harm you! I bandaged your wound and offered food. Yet, you repay kindness with ingrat.i.tude. What have I done to deserve being hara.s.sed by a group of birds? If I had known, I would have left you alone.”
To her surprise, the bird reached her and perched on her shoulder, constrained to one leg but seemingly content. The medicinal treatment had worked wonders, improving its condition.
As Gu Chaoyan pondered the bird’s unexpected behavior, her surroundings s.h.i.+fted abruptly. In an instant, her weight disappeared, and she found herself back in the chaotic s.p.a.ce.
Familiar with the primal chaos s.p.a.ce, she was puzzled by the sudden return. Questions swirled in her mind—was the Chaotic s.p.a.ce playing games with her, and why was she back so swiftly?
Her confusion deepened as she noticed the injured bird still present.
It dawned on her—this was the mission’s completion. The Chaotic s.p.a.ce had orchestrated her to save and bring back the bird.
“Your mission is complete. See you next time,” echoed the voice of the chaotic s.p.a.ce before falling silent.
Perplexed initially, Gu Chaoyan eventually felt grat.i.tude toward the chaotic s.p.a.ce. It had provided her not only a mission but also a pet beast with a considerable cultivation level.
Gu Chaoyan departed with the bird in tow. However, just as she left, she sensed someone actively searching for her outside.
Ensuring the bird was settled, she opened the entrance to admit the visitor.
“Sister, we’ve located that woman. Let’s go find her,” exclaimed the Dao Child of the Demon Clan upon entering.
“You found Pei Yueling?” Gu Chaoyan expressed both surprise and joy.
“Yes,” confirmed the Dao Child of the Demon Clan, leading her to the individual they had located.
Gu Chaoyan couldn’t help but appreciate the woman’s cunning and intelligence.
