Chapter 28 The Ancestral Eagle's Intimidation
Before going to bed that night, Lu Liufeng invited Jiang Xi to sleep with him again.
Jiang Xi naturally refused.
She returned to her mud house where she burned charcoal; the wooden door let in some fresh air, and she slept warmly all night.
The next morning.
Jiang Xi drank a bowl of hot honey goat milk and then set off for Rehe Valley.
Mu Ling and Yi Yuexi also wanted to go.
However, both of them were land-dwelling beastmen, and by the time they arrived at the Jehol Valley, Jiang Xi and Lu Liufeng had already returned to their tribe.
Jiang Xi arranged for them to continue making tables, chairs, and benches.
I spent all night working on it and ended up with a bunch of defective products.
She drew the shape on the stone with charcoal, gave them some instructions on the details, and then followed Lu Liufeng, ruthlessly abandoning the two of them.
Yi Yuexi leaned lazily against the door, watching the female master and Lu Liufeng leave, and narrowed her eyes.
The female protagonist seems to be distancing herself from him and Mu Ling, and getting closer to Lu Liufeng.
He seemed determined to completely sever ties with the two of them.
Mu Ling glanced at the discarded bamboo twisted into various shapes in the kitchen and picked up the stone knife.
"I'll go cut some more bamboo."
The orcs who controlled the airspace of the tribe had all gathered outside the tribe.
There were seventeen or eighteen of them, mostly young orcs.
When they saw Jiang Xi appear, they were all stunned for a moment, and then quickly looked away.
Even though she found food and contributed to the tribe, it doesn't erase the evil deeds she committed.
Chief Rupert stood outside the tribe and greeted Jiang Xi as soon as he saw her.
"The female ruler Jiang Xi is going too."
Jiang Xi nodded.
Rupert is a land-dwelling orc and is not participating in this expedition; he is standing here only to assemble the group.
He smiled and pushed out a tall, thin young man.
“Mistress Jiang Xi, this is the second child in the family, Jiaxi, a member of the Kite Bird Clan under the Eagle Clan. Although his beast form is not as large as Lu Liufeng's, he looks very beautiful when he flies in the sky.”
The leader's enthusiastic attitude made Jiang Xi realize without guessing that he was trying to arrange a marriage between her and an orc.
She glanced at Lu Liufeng awkwardly, but Lu Liufeng only looked at her with a gentle smile in his eyes.
Ever since Rupert went to the home of the female master Jiang Xi, he knew that marrying her would definitely bring him a good life!
If it weren't for his own bloodline of beastman son, who would take at least two or three more years to transform into human form, he wouldn't have introduced the female master's other beastman husbands' children to the female master Jiang Xi.
As a leader, he had keen intuition.
He could sense that if he didn't establish a marriage alliance with Jiang Xi as soon as possible, he might never be able to get close to her again.
First, let Jiaxi marry into that family. Once that connection is established, we can arrange for the boy in our family to marry into that family in a couple of years...
Rupert had a good idea, but Garcy frowned, took an impatient step back, and said directly.
"I have a female I want to marry."
Jiang Xi breathed a sigh of relief.
Good, good, it's good to have a female you want to marry.
At this moment, Lu Liufeng, who was standing behind Jiang Xi, suddenly spread his huge wings, which blotted out the sky.
The oppressive aura of the Ancestral Eagle bloodline caused Jiaxi's face to turn pale. He retreated repeatedly, his impatience disappearing and replaced by fear and respect.
The eagle-clan beastmen from the Eagle Strait all possess the bloodline of the ancestral eagle and are the royal family among the eagles. Those with strong bloodlines can prevent other eagles from taking flight simply by exerting their pressure.
As the former young clan leader of Eagle Strait, Lu Liufeng's bloodline is naturally superior to that of ordinary Eagle Clan members.
In the Cursed Lands alone, no eagle bloodline can surpass him.
Jiang Xi is not a beastman, so she cannot feel the pressure.
Among the other airborne orcs, the eagles trembled, and the other airborne orcs who were not eagles, even without the pressure of bloodline, faintly sensed this oppressive force.
Everyone subtly stepped back, making room.
Given the current oppressive aura, it's possible that Lu Liufeng might challenge Jiaxi to a duel.
Rupert was sweating profusely. He hadn't expected things to turn out this way. He never imagined that this kid, Garcia, would show disdain for his mistress in front of Lu Liufeng.
Just as he was about to call for an apology from Jiaxi, Jiang Xi's voice rang out.
Shall we set off now?
Seeing that Lu Liufeng had already transformed, and that the other Sky Beastmen had also retreated and separated, Jiang Xi assumed that everyone was about to transform and then set off.
Lu Liufeng gave a low "hmm" and did not refute.
Jiang Xi didn't turn around because she had been afraid to look Lu Liufeng in the eye since last night.
Even though those amber eyes were gentle and affectionate, she still sensed a subtle, inexplicable aggression—the aggression of a beastman.
Jiaxi took a deep breath and apologized in a trembling voice.
"Mistress Jiang Xi, I'm sorry, I didn't mean what I said just now."
Jiang Xi looked at him with a puzzled expression.
Did you just say something?
She thought for a moment, and realized that it just meant he had a female he liked.
She was puzzled.
"You have a female you like, isn't that great?"
Gacy paused for a moment, and Rupert, realizing what was happening, quickly spoke up.
"Let's go, let's go! The First Female and the other females are already waiting for you in the Jehol Valley!"
The First Queen, also known as the Rupert Queen or the chieftain's wife, is generally referred to as the First Queen and is responsible for managing female affairs within the tribe.
Jiang Xi took a deep breath; this time, she had no choice but to turn back.
She looked up at Lu Liufeng and made the suggestion.
"Do you want to transform into your full beast form? Wouldn't that make you fly faster?"
She'd much rather sit on his eagle's back than be awkwardly carried in a princess carry.
Lu Liufeng slightly closed his outstretched wings behind him, looking at the female master's shimmering eyes without revealing anything.
"No need, if I transform into my full beast form, they won't be able to catch up."
"This is a group trip for the tribe, so it's inconvenient to leave the group."
Now, Jiang Xi couldn't find any other excuse.
The young beastmen transformed into their full beast forms and soared into the sky.
Lu Liufeng bent down, picked up the female master horizontally, spread her wings, and flew into the sky.
Jiang Xi wrapped her arms around his neck; the embrace of a grown man was broad and strong, and her heart was pounding.
Two days later, I was once again held in someone's arms and flown.
But clearly, their mindsets were different, and the atmosphere was naturally different as well.
This time, without Jiang Xi needing to be curious, Lu Liufeng would take the initiative to introduce the snow forest they were passing by.
"That bamboo grove is where Mu Ling went to cut bamboo."
"There's a lake ahead. In the summer, the beastmen in the tribe like to come here to bathe and swim."
"There are many fruits on this mountain below. You can come here to pick them in the summer."
"..."
Lu Liufeng told her everything he knew.
Tell her about the world, tell her about life in the tribe.
It subtly contains a hopeful expectation for the future.
Jiang Xi was unaware of these things. Her attention was gradually drawn away, and she no longer focused all her attention on Lu Liufeng.
Lu Liufeng showed her many sights, occasionally falling a few steps behind the young airborne beastmen, but quickly catching up again.
A group of airborne orcs flew together, crowding one after the other. Upon seeing this scene, they discussed it in hushed tones.
"Didn't they say that Lu Liufeng doesn't like his female master?"
"My sister keeps urging me to find the Golden Soul Fruit because she wants to marry Lu Liufeng."
A large bird sighed.
“My mistress also likes Lu Liufeng. She makes us go find the Golden Soul Fruit every day. She thinks my beast form is not majestic enough among the airborne beastmen.”
