The black snake sensed it.
It swished its tail and swam toward the golden eagle.
Just as the snake was about to bite the golden eagle, a bright orange figure pounced, its sharp claws piercing the wound the golden eagle had inflicted.
A loud tearing sound suddenly rang out.
Lin Qian jumped to the side, sniffed the snake blood on its two front paws, and couldn't help but lick it.
Ah...it smells so good!
Crispy snake meat, here comes this tiger!
A sharp pain shot through his brain, and the black snake thrashed about, its body writhing wildly, its mind filled with questions.
What, what's going on...?
How dare this little tiger attack it?
It was clearly a powerless creature...
The black snake's questions could not be sustained, nor were they answered, and it had no chance to find the answers.
The black snake was naturally aware of Lin Qian's existence, but the little tiger, which had no spiritual power, was very ordinary in its perception. It could easily take care of such a small creature with a single tail strike, so the black snake didn't pay much attention to it.
Unexpectedly, it didn't die from the golden eagle's claws, but from the claws of a half-grown tiger cub.
"cracking……"
A worried cry came from the female golden eagle. Lin Qian looked up and felt a pang of sadness as he looked at the dying golden eagle.
Just ten minutes ago, he was the prey of this big bird.
But now, they're all going to become his food.
In Lin Qian's view, the male golden eagle was already dead, and the female eagle was also about to die.
Although he didn't hunt it, food that falls right in front of him is free food, so why not eat it?
Just then, a rustling sound came from under the flowers, and then with a whoosh, a pair of pale golden wings stretched out.
The golden eagle is still alive!
The male golden eagle ignored Lin Qian and struggled to fly to the female golden eagle's side, looking quite exhausted.
The male golden eagle was in critical condition; the toxins in its body were on the verge of exploding, its spiritual energy was exhausted and could no longer be suppressed, and it was about to die.
Its usually sharp gaze softened. It touched the female eagle's head and lowered its beak to preen the feathers on her injured wing.
This was probably the last time it helped its wife preen her feathers...
The male golden eagle seemed somewhat sad and reluctant to leave.
It had only just begun to understand the meaning of life when death came so quickly.
The female eagle sensed the male eagle's sadness. She cried out anxiously, folded her wings, and gently nuzzled the male eagle's shoulder.
It was terrified and anxious, but it was helpless. It had lost sensation in half of its body due to the snake venom and could barely move.
The male eagle comforted her, calling softly and telling his wife not to grieve for his death.
Living under this sky, death is nothing unusual; they have long been accustomed to it, and can only be accustomed to it.
Lin Qian looked at the golden eagle chirping softly, a hint of surprise in his eyes.
The sight of this golden eagle couple being so affectionate reminded him of tiger parents.
He vividly remembered the two big cats' affectionate moments, but now Tiger Dad was seriously injured and he had no idea where Tiger Mom was.
I wonder how they are doing...
Lin Qian naturally hoped that the mother tiger and the tigress behind him hadn't fallen into the crevice and that he could survive, which was entirely due to the good protection he received from the father tiger, who was the best-built tiger in the family.
Even so, Tiger Dad was still seriously injured and on the verge of death.
Lin Qian didn't dare to think about what would happen if the mother tiger and the tigress also fell down.
Even if the underground river below is wide and deep enough, such a height is still very dangerous; the impact of falling into the water would be enough to cause serious injury.
In addition, the river is extremely turbulent. If you are knocked unconscious by the force of the impact and swept away by the current, you will encounter many rocks and dangerous situations along the way.
If he and his father had been less lucky, they could have died in the river, let alone made it ashore.
The Lin father and son were able to get ashore only after Tiger Dad woke up and swam out of the river with great effort.
The underground river was surging with undercurrents, and Tiger Dad, who was already weak from internal injuries, suffered further damage from this.
So when Lin Qian woke up, Tiger Dad had already fallen into a deep coma due to his injuries.
As his thoughts raced, a pair of tiger claws had already pierced the snake's belly. Seeing the throbbing snake gall, Lin Qian paused.
This thing seems to have an antidote effect. Even if it doesn't, he could sense that the snake gall contained a very high concentration of spiritual energy, so who knows...
Lin Qian hesitated for a moment, then decisively took off the snake gall, grabbed it, and ran towards the golden eagle couple.
"Thud." A snake gall the size of a fist was thrown in front of her, and the female golden eagle was stunned.
The male golden eagle was already in a daze. When it saw the colorful feathers approaching, it instinctively struggled with its wings, but after a slight movement, the wings became unresponsive.
Lin Qian didn't linger. He dropped the snake gall and turned back to the black snake, starting to tear at its flesh. He was afraid he would regret it if he didn't hurry.
A rich aroma filled the flower bushes as the little tiger devoured the crisp and tender snake meat, eating with incredible speed.
This black snake is highly mutated, and its spiritual energy content is much higher than that of any spirit beast he has eaten before.
The female golden eagle sensed that the energy in the snake's gall could detoxify it. Although she didn't know what the tiger cub's actions meant, her survival instinct made her quickly eat a few bites.
The effects of the snake gall were immediate; the female golden eagle quickly regained consciousness, and the rich spiritual energy contained in the gall made her feel refreshed.
The female golden eagle's eyes lit up, and she picked up half of a snake's gall bladder from under her body and fed it to the male golden eagle.
At this point, the male golden eagle was already in a daze, but it was still instinctively using its willpower to suppress the surge of power.
It instinctively opened its mouth and ate the snake gallbladder that the female golden eagle fed it.
