The Emperor is Above

Chapter 109 A Battle Caused by a Bird Egg
The night is dark and the crescent moon hangs alone.

The night on the lonely hill is quiet, and occasionally the roar of animals can be heard from the distant wasteland.

A tallow candle as thick as a child's arm lit up the room exceptionally brightly. Qing Yi sat in the room, writing and drawing on a piece of animal skin.

Written on it were names such as Blood Wolf Tribe, Black Wind Tribe, Ghost King, Ghost Witch Tribe, Cat Ghost God, and Xianyu Tribe, and they were connected by lines.

Qing Yi frowned in thought, muttering from time to time: "The more than 100,000 troops of Xian Yu invaded the northern border town and refused to withdraw, which is abnormal.

The Ghost King might be related to the Ghost Witch Tribe, which has gathered many wild folk settlements to cause trouble in the northeast. On the southeastern border, there is the Black Wind Tribe, which worships the Black Wind Evil God and controls a region, which is actually like establishing a country.

There has been a series of chaos in the capital area before and after the New Year, and now an evil cat ghost has appeared. Not only are many people scrambling to worship it, but even the titles in the management pavilion have been bought off.

The Ghost Witch Tribe and the Black Wind Tribe may have formed an alliance, and the Cat Ghost God and the Black Wind God are both evil gods. I wonder if the two are related. It seems that Xing State is about to face troubled times, and I must become stronger as soon as possible."

After analyzing the current situation, Qing Yi's eyes became more determined. He had all the foundations to become stronger, but unfortunately time was too tight.

Thinking of this, his eyes fell on a wooden box in the room. In the box were four bird eggs, each with a diameter of one and a half feet. The eggshells had a light green background, and mysterious patterns naturally grew on them.

Reaching out and touching a few bird eggs, one can feel the tremendous vitality contained in them, as if a few ferocious birds are sleeping inside and can break out of the shells at any time.

These four falcon eggs were produced by Xu Zhengjia's fifth-grade mount. The hatched falcons have a very high possibility of being promoted to fifth-grade ferocious birds. Unfortunately, it will take at least three to five years to raise them to adulthood.

"Meow-"

The civet cat twisted its round body and squeezed through the crack in the door to get in. Looking at the falcon eggs, it couldn't help drooling. It rubbed Qing Yi's calf with its long tail, and it was obvious that it wanted to steal the eggs.

"These falcon eggs are extremely valuable. I bought them with four fourth-grade alligator dragon teeth. I can't give them to you to eat!"

Qing Yi couldn't help but smile and comfort the civet cat, "Be patient, the little phoenixes are laying eggs during this period. When their babies grow up and lay eggs, you will be fed as much as you want."

"Meow-"

The civet cat was unhappy at first when it heard that it could not eat the falcon eggs, but when it heard that the little phoenix was laying eggs, its originally squinted eyes suddenly widened into a round shape, and it quickly squeezed out from the crack of the door.

"Oh my god, this fat cat is not going to rob the bird's nest now!" Qing Yi was stunned. The civet cat looked so impatient that he felt very uneasy.

Sure enough, not long after, the angry cry of a big rooster came from the back of the yard: "Oh oh oh——"

"Cluck, cluck, cluck--" The little phoenix, which had always been afraid of the civet cat, also made an angry cry.

Soon after, he heard the sounds of fighting and the fierce cries of a civet cat. Qing Yi could no longer sit still and ran out. By then, the yard had already become a scene of chaos.

"Meow-"

"Oh oh oh-"

"Ah wu——"

"Giggle-"

The civet cat and the big rooster were fighting each other, and the little fox, an eighth-grade exotic beast, helped to stop the little phoenix, also an eighth-grade vicious bird.

The whole yard was suddenly filled with chickens flying, cats jumping, foxes howling, and birds chirping. The flying hair and feathers in the air slowly fell on Qing Yi's shoulders and face.

Qing Yi accidentally sucked a cat hair into his throat. He could not help coughing repeatedly, even coughing out tears. He finally spit out the hair. He could no longer hold back and shouted angrily, "What a rebellion!" At this time, Gongsun Wu and the Dongmen brothers who were sleeping heard the noise and ran out. They worked together to separate the little phoenix and the little fox, but they could do nothing about the civet cat and the big rooster, which were seventh-grade exotic beasts.

"Cough cough cough-"

After a few muffled coughs, Aunt Bo came out with the help of Daniu. Seeing the civet cat and the rooster still fighting fiercely, she couldn't help but said sternly: "Hua Ni, come here!"

It's amazing to say that the civet cat, a seventh-grade exotic beast, ignored the obstruction of Gongsun Wu and the Dongmen brothers, but was obedient to Bo Wu, who was just an ordinary person.

He immediately separated from the fight with the big rooster, and ran to Auntie Bo obediently, rubbing her ankles with his long tail: "Meow--"

While Qing Yi was trying to comfort the big rooster, he said helplessly to Aunt Bo: "Hua Ni actually went to steal the eggs of the little phoenix in the middle of the night. This cannot go on."

Auntie Bo was usually very strict with Daniu. When she heard this, her eyebrows immediately stood up and she scolded the civet cat fiercely: "Have you learned to steal things? Doesn't grandma usually give you good food and drink? Stretch out your hand!"

The civet cat, which always acted arrogantly in front of others, now stood on its hind legs and carefully stretched out its two front paws, and there was actually a small phoenix egg the size of a fist inside.

Aunt Bo picked up the bird eggs and handed them to Qing Yi, then she picked up a stick and rudely whipped the civet cat's front paws. The fat cat, who always had a bad temper, just lowered his head and endured it without any resistance.

“Tsk, tsk, tsk—”

Seeing this scene, Qing Yi couldn't help but feel envious. Usually, he could only bribe the civet cat and didn't dare to punish it at all.

"Eh? Since the civet cat listens to Auntie Bo so much, wouldn't it be better to ask Auntie Bo to take care of the phoenix cubs after they hatch?"

This thought suddenly came to his mind. After all, after he was granted the title of Guqiu, all internal and external affairs were handled by Gongsun Wu, Dongmen, Chai Yong and Daniu.

Aunt Bo seems to be very bored with nothing to do recently, so we need to find something for her to do, which will also prevent the civet cat from stealing the bird eggs in the future.

When Aunt Bo heard this, her eyes lit up: "Young Master, just leave this matter to me. From now on, I will keep a close eye on Hua Ni and prevent her from stealing bird eggs again."

As the morning star rose in the east and the sky was about to brighten, Qing Yi didn't want to go to sleep anymore, so he asked Dongmen Hu to bring a wooden ladder and prepared to personally return the bird's eggs to the nest.

Before walking to his room, Qing Yi's eyes swept across the four bird eggs in the wooden box and he couldn't help but smile again. He had been worrying about how to hatch these eggs, and now he might as well ask the little phoenix to hatch them together.

"Giggle-"

When the red sun rose from the east, Qing Yi, with the cooperation of the Dongmen brothers and Gongsun Wu, put the little phoenix egg and four falcon eggs into the bird's nest.

But the little phoenix looked frightened and refused to return to the nest. It was obvious that the eggs of the fifth-grade ferocious bird carried the aura of a higher-level ferocious bird, which scared the little phoenix. The big rooster looked even more unhappy.

"I've really been feeding you two for nothing!" Qing Yi said in a stern manner, "We have to hatch the eggs anyway, and hatch four falcons at the same time. They will be your godchildren from now on.

If that fat cat comes to bully you again, with these powerful godchildren to help you fight, won't you be victorious in every battle? If I didn't know how to hatch eggs, how could you two have a turn?"

Seeing that the big rooster and the little phoenix were still unwilling, Qing Yi simply threatened and lured them: "If you two are still unwilling, then next time I enter the Divine Lord's Spiritual Realm, I will not take you two with me."

Qing Yi discovered that the spiritual realm of Lord Ju Mang was very attractive to them. Although he was still not very happy in his heart, he still agreed reluctantly.

The little phoenix carefully ran back to the nest, spread its huge wings and wrapped up the four falcon eggs including more than twenty of its own eggs. The big rooster looked dejected with a green head.
