During the past six months together, Qi Xu experienced the long-lost maternal and paternal love, as well as another heart-wrenching separation...
Qi Xu sat quietly for a while before throwing herself into her mother's arms and bursting into tears. Qi Xu's cries were heart-wrenching, releasing all the exhaustion, grievances, and sorrow of the past few days.
The mother blackbird was just as sad, but she knew that this was the most important moment. She didn't want the colony to live in fear anymore, nor did she want her chicks' efforts to be in vain.
He forced himself to cheer up and comforted Qi Xu.
After crying for an unknown amount of time, Qi Xu's sobs gradually subsided, leaving only intermittent sobs. "I won't let Dad down, and I will end all of this."
"You will never let us down, you will always be our proudest little one."
Qi Xu nodded, took a deep breath, wiped the tears from his face with his wings, and hugged the big black bird mother tightly. She was the one who was saddened the most, and he wanted to give her strength!
Qi Xu took one last look at the big black bird father lying there with his eyes closed forever. The sadness in his eyes turned into a cold resolve. He slowly stood up and, together with the big black bird mother, buried the big black bird father.
Busy until midnight, Qi Xu finally lay down to rest for a few hours. Half of her embrace was missing, but she was not lacking in warmth. The mother blackbird had given her everything she could.
Qi Xu is content.
As dawn broke, the sounds of flapping wings and the scratching of claws against rocks echoed across the open ground at the bottom of the cliff.
Hong, along with Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu, has already started practicing. These days, besides gathering food, they have been working hard to practice flying and strengthening themselves, not wanting to put all the burden on Qi Xu alone.
I also want to fight alongside her, at least not be the one who holds me back.
Qi Xu was still tired and sleepy, but he forced himself to get up. The sleeping behemoth wouldn't give him much time, so he had to be faster, even faster.
We quickly led everyone to the agreed meeting place. For the past five days and nights, we had worked tirelessly, and almost all the tribes we had contacted came. The scene was... a sight to behold.
Many of them were even natural enemies, but now they have all sheathed their fangs and hostility, crowding together in this open valley, their auras intertwined yet without the slightest conflict.
Qi Xu stood in the center, on a protruding boulder, morning dew still clinging to his wings, the bloodshot in his eyes still visible, yet revealing an undeniable determination, even though his feathers were covered in dust, his eye sockets were sunken, and the weariness in his eyes was almost overflowing.
He still possesses a strong leadership quality, attracting everyone's attention as soon as he appeared.
The mother blackbird stood beside Qi Xu, slightly behind him by half a step. Her healed wings were slightly spread, and she tried her best to create a calm aura for her baby. Even though the blackbird clan is no longer as glorious as it used to be, I will always be my baby's most steadfast supporter.
Qi Xu was somewhat surprised; it seemed that the number of tribes that came today was much greater than the number of tribes he had worked hard to win over over the past five days.
Although animals don't have the same high-tech means as humans to communicate, they are driven by their instinct for survival to imprint every movement and sound in their surroundings into their senses.
News of Qi Xu's high-profile gathering of forces and declaration of war against the sleeping behemoth had already spread.
I'm not necessarily here to join, but I just want to see what gives them the confidence to boast about defeating the sleeping behemoth!
But when they stepped into this open valley, all their hesitation and doubts vanished in shock at the sight before them...
