In order to prevent the alien black-clawed wild bees from harming too many lives, Su Rui planned to go back to the Golden Whip Cliff first to report the black-clawed wild bee rebellion caused by Taoist Fire Crow to the Law Enforcement Hall and bring some reinforcements.
According to Taoist Fire Crow's memory, there are still many black-clawed wild bees in the wild of Qingxu Town. In order to ensure that Qingxu Town will not be destroyed by the black-clawed wild bees, turning the house he just bought in Qingxu Town into a haunted house, Su Rui asked Chi Jiao to stay in Qingxu Town with the little fox demon.
After receiving the Fire Dragon Belt from Su Rui, Chi Jiao couldn't let it go and wanted to practice it right away. Su Rui's request to stay behind was just a trivial matter to it, and of course it had no objection.
Seeing Chi Jiao nod, Su Rui immediately grabbed the spirit of the Iron-winged Vulture from the Yuan Shen illusion, used the Yuan Shen true energy and shook his body, then he turned into the Iron-winged Vulture leader he had killed on Beifeng Mountain. He spread his wings and soared into the sky, soaring in the clouds.
After he collected the Iron-Winged Vulture's spirit, he realized that it had no special features other than flying, so he forgot about it. It was only when he saw a strange birdman in the Yuan Mirage when he was refining the Fire Crow Taoist's spirit that he remembered it!
Su Rui turned into a birdman because he was in a hurry to travel, otherwise it would be so great to fly with a sword, allowing him to travel quickly and master the sword-flying technique at the same time!
After transforming into a bird, the feeling of flying was truly wondrous. Although there was a whistling sound in his ears, it didn't affect his hearing, nor did he feel any noticeable resistance from the strong wind. The feeling of flying, to him, was like walking for an able-bodied human; it had become an innate, instinctive reaction.
This was a completely different experience from his previous windward sword-flying technique. Flying the sword against the wind was extremely awkward and strenuous, while transforming into an eagle was extremely graceful and effortless.
In the vast sky, above the boundless sea of clouds, Su Rui felt the long-lost freedom.
There really is a sense of ease and comfort that "the sea is wide enough for fish to leap, and the sky is high enough for birds to fly"!
"No wonder those great poets like to compare the state of freedom to a caged bird returning to the mountains and forests. The metaphor is so apt!" Su Rui thought to himself as he gently flapped his iron wings, cutting through the strong wind, riding the air flow, and maintaining a forward-rushing posture.
As he was thinking about this, Su Rui saw the Golden Whip Cliff hidden among the mountains and forests, and couldn't help but exclaimed, "How fast!"
It's a pity that this iron-winged vulture itself is not an exotic bird and has no potential to be tapped. Otherwise, Su Rui would like to develop it well, and it might have other uses in the future.
Just as Su Rui was adjusting the angle and planning to land on the Golden Whip Cliff, he suddenly saw a ball of golden light the size of a finger shooting out from the Golden Whip Cliff and hitting his body.
Su Rui flapped his wings and shot out an iron feather, trying to intercept the golden light. However, the golden light was very weak. It lost its strength after being touched by the iron feather and fell into the vast forest.
Su Rui took a closer look and saw that the falling golden light was actually a weak golden pill. Just as he was using his demonic power to retrieve the iron feather he had shot out, he saw a sword light rising from the Golden Whip Cliff and stabbing towards him.
The sword light was quite powerful. It shot into the air, emitting a dazzling streak of cold light.
Su Rui was shocked. He realized at a glance that his Iron-feathered Vulture Demon Body might not be able to defeat the other party's flying sword, so he had to summon his Thunder Scales to entangle the sword light.
Then he saw a boy of eight or nine years old with two towering braids and two beautiful yet distinctive girls suddenly appear on Golden Whip Cliff. The boy was constantly channeling his Qi to cast a spell to control the sword light entangled by the lightning scales, attempting to break through the lightning scales' interception.
Su Rui recognized the boy. He was the boy who snorted coldly at him on the second floor of the library that day.
Su Rui saw that one of the two girls was looking at the younger girl, and seemed ready to summon her flying sword to join the fight.
Su Rui's pupils condensed, and he immediately controlled the Iron-feathered Vulture demon body to dive in the opposite direction, landing on a rocky peak a hundred feet away. He rolled on the ground and changed back into a young boy.
The boy, upon seeing him, had no intention of recalling his flying sword. The two girls, however, became even more vigilant, each drawing their own flying swords and charging towards him with their blades blazing.
Su Rui frowned and immediately shouted, "Three senior brothers and sisters, are you planning to kill our fellow disciples on Golden Whip Cliff?"
Su Rui was not sure about the identities of the two girls, but since they could stand with the boy, they should have entered the sect earlier than him. Even if they were not from the Qingcheng Sect, as long as they were people of the right path, there would be no problem in calling them "Senior Sister".
Su Rui's shout took effect immediately. The two girls who had already released sword lights immediately changed their sword techniques and called back the sword lights.
The boy hesitated for a moment and waved his hands repeatedly, trying to recall the sword light, but he was entangled by the thunder scales and could not do so.
At this time, inside the cave of Golden Whip Cliff, some fellow disciples had heard Su Rui's call and flew out on their swords. Within a few breaths, more than ten Qingcheng Sect disciples, both men and women, appeared at the edge of Golden Whip Cliff.
When they saw that it was just a sword fight between fellow disciples, they lost their vigilance and fell on the surrounding rock walls, becoming spectators.
One of the sword lights fell beside Su Rui, and it was Zhang Beiyang.
He looked up at the two flying swords fighting in mid-air. His eyes narrowed for a moment, and then he took sides. As if afraid that his fellow disciples around him couldn't hear him, he asked loudly:
"Junior Brother Su, but Sun Xiaotian wants to kill you?"
Su Rui nodded and responded concisely with a "yes".
