Where is it taking itself?
Li Qing is currently eager to know the answer to this matter.
The eagle had been flying for a long time and could no longer hear the shouts of the hunting party. They flew over jungles and mountains, and the scenery ahead gradually turned into cliffs.
Is it trying to lead itself into its nest, kill itself, and let its offspring eat it?
Eagles usually choose very steep and dangerous places to build their nests. If they come out to hunt because they are hungry, they will definitely find a safe place to kill and eat their prey as soon as they catch it. This incredible eagle has been carrying me for so long and hasn't eaten me yet. So, it seems that there is only one explanation.
This is terrible!
Li Qing's stone hammer was dropped on the ground because of the sudden incident, and he didn't have it with him at the moment. This left him without the opportunity to act now, and even after things stopped, he wouldn't have the means to do so.
Of course, even with a stone hammer in hand, whether he could defeat the Heavenly Eagle is another matter entirely.
Li Qing knew that he would probably arrive at Ni Tianying's home soon, so he forced his brain to work at lightning speed.
There's a way, there must be a way!
The wind whistled past Li Qing's ears, and he felt a sharp pain in his eardrums, a sign that they were about to rupture.
Humans are exceptionally fragile in nature. Any lifestyle that other creatures are accustomed to would be an unimaginable torment for humans, and might even endanger their lives.
After thinking for a long time, Li Qing's mind was still a mess. What was worse, he had already seen the nest of three Rebellious Eagle chicks in the center of the cliff, with an endless abyss below and no trees above that could be used for support or climbing. The cliff was so steep that it was almost thirty degrees.
Just as I thought!
Li Qing's heart sank.
What chilled Li Qing's heart was the environment here.
There was nothing to climb, which meant that even if he were extremely lucky and killed the eagle, he wouldn't be able to escape from this unfortunate place.
It seemed the only way out was to close my eyes and jump down, and pray that there was an old man below—no, it should be an elderly shaman—who would accept me, heal my wounds, and grant me some inexplicable divine power like immortality.
All right.
Li Qingxin wasn't so daring as to risk her life.
Lost in thought, the eagle flew up to its nest.
Then, the eagle released its talons and threw Li Qing toward its nest.
Instinctively, Li Qing closed his eyes and landed in a nest woven from dry grass and branches. Fortunately, the nest of the Heavenly Eagle was much softer than Li Qing had imagined. After landing on it, apart from the pain in the few parts of his body that had been hooked by the Heavenly Eagle and were bleeding, as well as dizziness, he felt almost no particular pain.
Three eagle chicks, seeing prey fall from the sky, excitedly cried out to their mother in the heavens, expressing their gratitude for the feast.
But this eagle didn't seem to have any intention of sharing this hard-won feast with its chicks; it circled in the sky, as if waiting for something.
A thought suddenly popped into Li Qing's mind: "Could it be that this Heaven-Defying Eagle wants its cubs to kill it with their own strength?"
This is indeed in line with the character of an eagle.
Eagles are among the harshest animals when it comes to their offspring. Sometimes, even when their chicks are not yet old enough to fly, their parents will push them off cliffs, forcing them to learn to fly. Some eagles, in this perilous situation, will unleash tremendous potential and successfully soar into the blue sky. These are the ones their parents consider worthy of nurturing. After they successfully fly home, they will often receive a piece of meat or other, even better, rewards. On the other hand, some timid and untalented eagles, even if they fall to the ground and are smashed to pieces, will not be saved by their parents. Instead, they will be left to die without any grief or regret.
The weak are destined to be eliminated by the harsh survival of the fittest in nature.
Moreover, even if these offspring grow into healthy eagles, they might be killed by other enemies one day—a short pain is worse than a long one. It's better to let them die now than to be heartbroken later. Perhaps they will be reincarnated and become even stronger.
This is the harshest law of nature: survival of the fittest, the strong preying on the weak!
All creatures living in nature believe in and abide by this law, and it is precisely because of this that they have ushered in this era of great prosperity!
Li Qing pressed down on his lower body.
Very sturdy and reliable.
His weight must be greater than that of the three chicks and the male eagle flying in the sky, but somehow the nest was built so that it didn't collapse even when he was thrown from such a height.
"In other words, even if I fight these three little guys with all my might, this place shouldn't collapse, right? After all, these three little guys shouldn't be old enough to fly yet. No matter how strict their parents are, they wouldn't risk making them fight me by letting them fall."
Li Qing looked at the three Heavenly Eagle chicks. They were so small, just like ordinary little birds. From their eagle eyes, Li Qing did not see the ferocity that one would expect in their eyes.
silence.
As soon as Li Qing landed, he was ready to fight at any moment. His adrenaline was already pumping. However, so far, the three young Invincible Eagles showed no signs of making a move, and the adult Invincible Eagle flying in the sky did not seem to have any intention of provoking them to fight. It seemed that its mission was over after dropping Li Qing down there.
What does this mean?
Li Qing was somewhat puzzled.
"Could they be mistaking me for their child? No, isn't this kind of scenario usually seen with chimpanzees? After all, I can't fly and walk on two legs. I don't seem to be related to the Sky-Defying Eagle at all." Li Qing was puzzled. "What's going on? I haven't seen any hostility from them... at least not yet. What do they want from bringing me here?"
As Li Qing pondered these questions, a cry of an eagle suddenly rang out from afar!
Another eagle soared over!
This eagle was larger and more majestic than the one Li Qing had just seen. However, upon seeing the stronger eagle, the eagle flying in the sky did not show any hostility, as if it regarded the other as family.
"It seems that the one that grabbed me earlier was a female eagle, and now it's a male eagle coming over."
"Wait, it looks like there's a person on that eagle's talons too!"
