"Crack!"

At the same time, the Blazing Bull Demon, whose entire body was engulfed in flames, had one of its massive horns, several meters long, along with a large chunk of flesh, severed by a single claw from the Suanni and fell to the ground.

This scene stunned all the ferocious beasts and birds of prey. They all fell limply on the spot, trembling.

In the clouds, the Azure-Scaled Eagle trembled, its heart filled with fear. The Suanni was still alive, and just moments ago they had been fighting over its remains—how terrifying was that?!
"Eek, how come it's alive again?" The little one scratched his head, confused.

Shi Ziling, who was following behind, showed a look of surprise. If Suanni had died directly, it would likely have destroyed the precious bone before it died. However, fearing that the other party wanted to set a trap to kill the ferocious beasts that coveted it, the other party's precious bone might have been preserved. In fact, it might have been too exhausted to destroy the precious bone!
"Roar……"

A deafening roar echoed through the mountains and forests. The demon ape roared in fury as its arm was torn off, causing it excruciating pain and madness, with blood gushing out.

It attacked with its single arm, smashing a punch at the golden beast lord that soared into the sky. The Suanni showed no signs of aging, and in a flash, it appeared a hundred meters away.

With a deafening roar, the demon ape shattered the remaining half of the stone mountain with a single punch. Its divine power shook the desolate forest. After missing its target, it didn't stop but leaped two hundred meters high, ready to spread its wings and escape.

Although it was furious, it knew it was no match for the old Suanni.

The Suanni's golden pupils were extremely cold, and its body was swirling with clouds and smoke like a tsunami, with golden lightning shooting up and striking the demon ape's back with a crack.

"Ow..."

The demon ape roared, its whole body trembling, and blood immediately splattered more than ten feet high. Just like before, it suffered a great loss under the terrible magic of the Suanni clan, and a bloody hole that was clear from front to back appeared on its chest and back.

The most powerful demon ape suddenly fell down, opened its bloody mouth, revealing its snow-white fangs. It attacked with its one arm, runes flashing all over its body, as if it was about to use a powerful magic.

On the other side, the Lihuo Bull Demon's entire body was as red as fire, like silk, and it was also going crazy, with runes flashing all over its body. It didn't really want to fight with the Suanni, and wanted to break through, so it chose to escape as soon as possible.

However, Suanni was too terrifying. Two beams of light shot out from the depths of its golden pupils, accompanied by thunder, and hit the body of Lihuo Niu Mo, causing its runes to disintegrate and leaving terrible blood marks on its body.

"Moo..."

The thirty-meter-long crimson bull demon was enraged, its body ablaze with flames. It stood upright, opened its enormous maw, and spewed out blazing light, turning the stone peak into lava that swept across the surrounding area.

This attack reduced countless ferocious birds and beasts to ashes, leaving them unable to even utter a scream.

The lion roared, and the golden light all over its body became more intense and dazzling. The whole mountain area became a golden ocean, and the clouds and smoke surged, blocking the fire.

In the distant clouds, the little one muttered to himself, "The Suanni is faking its death, trying to get rid of its enemies. It deliberately lured the Demon Ape and the Fire Bull Demon here. It is indeed an intelligent race, smarter than many people."

Demons roared, flames surged, clouds and lightning intertwined, and the place was in an uproar. The three ancient creatures clashed, and the sound was earth-shattering, shaking the Great Wilderness.

Mysterious patterns intertwined on the bodies of the Suanni, the Li Huo Niu Mo, and the Ape King, densely packed and radiating intense light, like electric snakes dancing. Powerful forces stirred, wind and clouds gathered, and a precious technique was about to be unleashed!
"boom!"

Deafening sounds were heard one after another, like the thunder from the sky, the rosy clouds shot up into the sky, the clouds were filled with mist, the lightning and fire intertwined, the three giants, Suanni, Demon Ape and Lihuo Bull Demon, clashed hard, the mountains collapsed, it was like the end of the world.

"puff"

The demon ape flew through the air, falling from the golden divine light that filled the mountain. It was covered in blood, and countless bones were broken, but it finally managed to break free from the cloud and smoke range of the Suanni.

With a loud thud, it slammed its foot into the earth, and with a flap of its demonic wings, it created a hurricane that carried towering black mist as it rushed into the depths of the mountains.

The demon ape not only lost an arm, but its internal organs were also shattered, and countless bones were broken. It needed to find a quiet place to hide and recover immediately, otherwise, if it was discovered by its nemesis, it would surely die.

"Moo..."

The Fiery Bull Demon roared, its deep bellow shaking the mountains. Covered in blood, it struggled to break free. The flames turned the sky crimson. It smashed through a mountain peak and fled into the depths of the mountains, treading on lava.

Only one Suanni remained on the scene, its golden fur gleaming. It raised its head and roared, like a tornado crashing down. Grass and thorns were uprooted, giant trees snapped, and rocks tumbled down, creating utter chaos.

The Suanni's cold eyes swept over the surviving powerful creatures. With a low growl, they were finally granted a pardon. They cried out and rushed in all directions, escaping in the blink of an eye.

In fact, 80% of the ferocious birds and beasts died here, especially during the battle between the Suanni, the Li Huo Niu Mo, and the Ape King, which had a wide-ranging impact and caused great harm to all the ferocious creatures.

The mountains and forests were silent, the lava had cooled, leaving only a trail of blood. The old Suanni stood alone here, its massive body like that of a god, shrouded in divine radiance.

It looked somewhat forlorn, the light in its eyes gradually dimmed, and a trickle of blood spilled from its mouth, a shocking sight. Finally, its entire body erupted with light, cracked open, and it collapsed onto the mountainside with a loud thud.

"Ah, it's dead again. Is it really dead this time?" On the back of the Azure Scaled Eagle, the little one stared wide-eyed and said, "It was just too old. Its life had come to an end. It's a pity that even with the trap set, it still couldn't kill its enemy."

A glint flashed in the Azure Scale Eagle's eyes. It wanted to pounce, but it was afraid that the Suanni was not quite dead yet. If that were the case, it would be suicide.

The mountains and forests were completely silent; no one dared to approach. All the wild beasts and ferocious birds were frightened away by the Suanni and dared not look back, fleeing to who knows how many miles away.

"Auntie Azure Scaled Eagle, the Suanni should really be dead this time. Let's go take a look," Shi Hao whispered.

The wind howled, and blue scales flashed through the clouds. This intelligent creature was well aware of this, but it was still cautious and careful, circling for a moment before swooping down.

The mountains were a deep red, with many puddles filled with blood, and bits of flesh and bone scattered everywhere, the stench of blood filling the air.

"Oh dear, it's really dead." Little Dot and the Azure Scaled Eagle approached and touched the Suanni. Its body slowly grew cold, and its life force had died.

The Azure-Scaled Eagle was extremely excited and flapped its iron wings forcefully, causing sand and stones to fly everywhere. Soon it found the arm of the Demon Ape from afar. It was also an ancient remnant species and contained rare true blood.

With a series of huffing and puffing sounds, the little one carried back the broken horn, several meters long, of the Fire Bull Demon. He laughed carefree, his big eyes almost narrowing into crescent shapes, because this was also a priceless beast treasure.

"Auntie, let's hurry up and go," the little one reminded.

The Azure-Scaled Eagle was unusually excited. Unlike its usual fierce appearance, its eyes were half-closed, almost as if it were intoxicated.

"Oh dear, auntie, what's wrong?" the little one exclaimed.

When the Azure-Scaled Eagle snatched the corpse of the Suanni, it tried to flap its wings, but unexpectedly stumbled and almost fell to the ground.

"Ah, auntie, you've been poisoned, and the poison hasn't been completely removed yet." Shi Hao's big eyes were filled with worry. In the battle not long ago, the Azure Scaled Eagle was bitten by the Purple-Gold Serpent. Although it decisively cut off a large chunk of flesh, it still couldn't completely stop the spread of the poison.

Moreover, he had been attacked by blood weasels and a terrifying rat king that fed on metal, suffering serious injuries that weakened his body and caused the toxins to spread more rapidly and become difficult to control.

"Auntie, let's hurry back to Stone Village and let Grandpa Clan Chief help you detoxify!" Little Shi Hao shouted anxiously.

The Azure-Scaled Eagle flapped its wings and tried to take flight again. This time, it finally managed to grab the enormous Suanni and fly towards Stone Village.

On the way, it swayed several times and almost fell off. Its body gradually weakened and it was almost out of strength. Normally, it could easily catch prey that was twice as heavy as this.

"click"

As it flew over a rocky cliff, its iron wings collided with a boulder, shattering a large section of the cliff face, and it nearly plunged off itself.

The little one said worriedly, "Auntie, if it doesn't work, let's leave the Suanni here for now, or throw this Fire-Burning Ox Horn down and come back for it later."

The Azure-Scaled Eagle immediately and sternly stopped him, making him sit on its back, holding onto the several-meter-long crimson horn and the Demon Ape's arm, ensuring nothing was left behind. Its own claws gripped the Suanni tightly, swaying as it flew close to the forest, hurtling towards Stone Village.

Shi Ziling carefully followed behind, even collecting the remaining corpses of the Li Huo Bull Demon and the Demon Ape in his cave. These were precious blood used to baptize the children and could not be wasted.

Finally, Stone Village was near. The little one hugged the red horn and the devil ape's arm, his heart filled with happiness, and he smiled happily.

This trip was very dangerous; they nearly lost their lives several times. But they did bring back the precious body of the Suanni, as well as the horns of the Lihuo Niu and the arm of the Ape King, making a very rich harvest.

He was overjoyed, a satisfied smile on his little face, a smile that was sweet and pure, shining brightly in the sunset.

As the sun sets, the crimson sunset paints the entire mountainside with a rosy glow, creating a serene and peaceful atmosphere in its afterglow.

We're getting close to Stone Village. This area isn't teeming with wild beasts; it's located on the outer edge of the mountains, so it's relatively peaceful.

"Finally almost home." The little one breathed a sigh of relief.

"boom"

However, at that moment, the Azure-Scaled Eagle plummeted, its wings snapping some towering trees in half. It gradually became exhausted, black blood gushing from its wounds, and it could no longer hold on.

"Auntie, hang in there! We're almost home," Little Shi Hao encouraged it.

With a long cry, the Azure-Scaled Eagle finally exhausted itself. Its massive body plummeted, smashing leaves and breaking many ancient trees, destroying many large trees.

Fortunately, it glided down, rather than falling straight down; otherwise, falling from such a height would have surely resulted in broken bones and injuries.

With a loud crash, the Suanni treasure body that the Azure Scaled Eagle had grabbed landed first, cracking the boulders in the forest. Then the Azure Scaled Eagle's massive body landed among the grass and trees.

The little guy, carrying the crimson horn, also tumbled down. Fortunately, he was light and strong and managed to drop the several-meter-long horn in time, thus avoiding injury.

"Auntie, are you alright?" Little Shi Hao quickly got up and ran towards the Azure Scaled Eagle.

The descendant of the ancient demonic bird was in terrible condition. The blood flowing from its wounds was like ink, emitting a foul odor. It was weak all over and unable to stand up.

The Azure-Scaled Eagle cried out to the sky, its voice so high-pitched it seemed to pierce through gold and split rocks. Even little Shi Hao felt a pain in his eardrums and quickly covered his ears as leaves fluttered around him.

“Yes, Auntie, if you are in pain, shout loudly and let out a few long cries. We are not far from Stone Village. Dapeng and Xiaoqing will definitely hear us and will lead the clan chief to meet us.”

As the little one spoke, he ran to the fiery red horn, chopped off a large piece of the clump of flesh, and held it to the Azure-Scaled Eagle's beak, saying:

“Auntie, I’ve heard that rhinoceros horn can detoxify, and this is the precious blood from the horn of an ancient species. Although it comes from a cow, it might be of some use.”

He fed it into the Azure-Scaled Eagle's beak and then helped it close it. Only then did the fierce bird's eyes soften when it looked at him, as if it were looking at its own child. The descendants of the ancient demonic bird possessed extremely high intelligence.

Shi Ziling, watching from behind, nodded slightly. This action showed him his son's kindness. Although the precious blood seemed ordinary to him, it was extremely precious to Shi Hao, who had grown up in the village.

The fact that Shi Hao could so easily give this precious blood to the Azure Eagle shows that he truly regarded the Azure Eagle as a family member of the village. If he could treat the Azure Eagle this way, he would naturally treat the people in the village well as well.

"Hang in there, Auntie. The clan chief and the others will be here soon."

Time passed slowly, and the distant roars of beasts echoed. Little Dot was worried, wondering if the people of Stone Village had heard the long cry of the Azure-Scaled Eagle.

If he goes back first, and a ferocious beast comes along, the Azure Scaled Eagle will surely die in its current state, with no way to resist.

"Even if I don't hear it, Grandpa Chief will send someone to pick me up and take me back. Be patient, Auntie, hang in there, everything will be alright." The little one encouraged it in its childish voice.

The deep roar of the beast seemed to be approaching, and a rustling sound came from afar. The setting sun was almost gone, and the sky was dark, making the mountain forest seem particularly gloomy and terrifying.

"Auntie, have some more of the precious blood." The little one picked up another piece of flesh from the Fire Bull Demon and offered it to him.

Suddenly, the little boy felt a chill run down his spine. He quickly turned to the side, and a cold iron arrow grazed his throat before embedding itself in the rocks with a clang.

Only then did the terrifying sound of the arrow piercing the air reach us. The arrow was so fast, far exceeding the speed of sound, that its power was astonishing. If the little one had reacted even slightly slower, his throat would have been pierced directly.

Another flash of cold light appeared, and a second iron arrow shot out. The little guy dodged, and with a "plop," blood splattered out. The piece of meat he was going to feed the Azure Scaled Eagle was pierced through by the arrow.

Shi Ziling's face darkened as he watched from a distance. This guy was here to kill Hao'er!

"What a waste! Feeding it to a dying bird of prey is not as good as leaving it for us." A gruff male voice rang out.

"It's you?!" The little boy exclaimed in surprise and anger. He saw the people from the wolf village. The archer was the leader of their hunting team, who was about two and a half meters tall, with strong muscles and tendons as tough as snakes.

There were shadowy figures all around, about twenty people in total, each holding a hard bow and aiming iron arrows at him.

The little one was furious, his eyes wide, and said, "Last time, our Stone Village let you go, and you swore a blood oath. Now you want to kill me, you..." (End of Chapter)
