Chapter 39 The vengeful bird starts extorting money.

"Junior sister, don't be shy, I'll give it to you, it's free!" The senior sister seemed to have discovered something new, so she wondered if teasing her junior disciple was so enjoyable.
"Really?" Another disciple approached from not far away. "Since you gave her a ride, you should give me one too."

The senior sister immediately retracted the large fat worm, her face darkening as she chased it away, "How can you be so shameless? Get lost!"

The big fat bug was finally taken back, and Su Su breathed a sigh of relief; she was terrified.

"Senior sister, I'll be going now." Su Su quickly climbed onto the crane and sat down obediently.

"Sigh, so afraid of a fat worm." The senior sister was still shaking her head.

After Su Su sat down, the crane let out a long cry and flew into the sky. The angle of the crane caused her to subconsciously hug its neck.

The crane swayed its long neck, seemingly in some discomfort, so Su Su gently loosened her grip.

The first flight of a man and a crane was a success (mainly because Su Su successfully rode a bird).
The first experience riding the crane was not bad. The feathers on its back were smooth and fleshy, so it wouldn't hurt her bottom. Since the crane didn't have a spiritual energy shield, Su Su didn't dare to stand, afraid that a gust of wind would blow her off.

"Crane, head to Broken Sword Peak." Su Su held the crane's head and activated a spiritual energy shield to avoid wind resistance. Her spiritual energy shield wasn't very thick, so the crane's speed couldn't be increased much.

"Cry!" The crane cried out, indicating that it understood.

As time went on, Su Su's feelings shifted from tension to excitement, an experience that could not be compared to either riding a cloud boat or flying on a sword.

The cloud boat is as stable as an airplane, and with her martial uncle by her side, it's like having a coach in skydiving. If something really happens, she won't be the only one who dies.

The only difference is riding the crane. It's just one person and one bird. The bird isn't afraid to fly, but Su Su is. If she falls, she'll be a bloody pulp. There are no safety measures at all, just a shallow spiritual energy shield, which she created herself.

Getting on the crane felt like riding a drop tower. If her senior sister hadn't insisted on giving Su Su a big fat worm, she would still be dawdling at the crane rental shop.

"This is my first time riding a crane, and in the future, it will be my first time flying on a sword by myself," Su Su murmured. "Crane, do you have a name? Will you be happy for me?"

"Cry! Cry!" The crane's brief but sharp cry sounded so pleasant to Su Su.

The transformation from a modern person to a monk...

"Screech!" "Screech!" A crane responded and flew towards Su Su's vicinity.

Something's not right. Something's definitely not right.

"This situation is not good..." Su Su hugged the crane's neck.

"Screech!" The red-beaked crane charged at Su Su first, its speed so fast that she couldn't defend against it, and her spiritual energy shield shattered with a single blow.

Su Su's face was brushed by the long beak, and a trace of blood-red liquid flowed out.

"Are you crazy? Why are you attacking me for no reason?"

The red-billed crane let out a long cry, "Cry!"

Before Su Su could reactivate the spiritual energy shield, the crane she was holding suddenly pulled its head back, flipped over 180 degrees, and Su Su fell off its back.

"!" Su Su was about to speak when her mouth was filled with air. Damn it! Her face was distorted by the wind, and she could only forcefully close her mouth.

Before anyone could react, Su Su was less than a thousand meters from the ground when another red-billed crane, which had been waiting, gently snatched Su Su's trouser leg and outer robe with its long beak.

"Ah!" Su Su was startled, realizing she had stopped falling. She clutched her wildly beating heart. "What are you doing?! I paid the spirit stones!"

She was still hanging upside down in the crane's beak, and dared not swear.

The red-billed crane that had come earlier also followed. The crane that Su Su had rented glided beside the two cranes, motionless and silent, as if watching a show, before letting out a long cry, "Caw!"

Su Su: ……

At this moment, Su Su actually understood what the crane was thinking. It was dissatisfied that Su Su didn't want the free, fat worms, leaving it unable to eat them.

"Lord Crane! I was wrong! I'll prepare more insects for you next time!" Discretion is the better part of valor; Lord Su Su is magnanimous. He'll complain to his senior sister after they descend from the sky. The red-beaked crane, clinging to Su Su's trouser leg, also let out a long cry, "Caw!"

Su Su, who was originally being pecked by it, felt her legs loosen and continued to fall down.

Su Su: Type in the password, did you hear me! Type in the password!
"Ah!!!!" The descent forced Su Su to scream.

The sound resounded through the sky, and could be heard from three miles away.

"Another disciple has been ganged up on by the cranes?"

"The crane rental office doesn't seem to care, they've spoiled these birds and beasts so much they're getting bolder and bolder!"

One disciple shook his head, "There's nothing we can do. Cranes are cheap, after all. If you don't like them, go take a Didi ride on a flying sword."

"I think you've all been brainwashed! Decades ago, cranes were definitely not like this!"

While the group was arguing, Su Su was caught by another crane about 100 meters above the ground.

"Huff, huff." Su Su gasped for breath, finally managing to regulate her breathing. "Okay, put me down!"

Once the spiritual energy shield is activated, a cultivator wouldn't die from a fall within a mere hundred meters; at most, they'd suffer a broken bone.

The red-beaked crane ignored her and flew into the sky, carrying Su Su by the collar.

Su Su: ……

What followed was so heartbreaking that it brought tears to the eyes of all who heard it.

After being fooled seven or eight times in a row, Su Su fell silent, her voice completely gone after several screams.

"Stop playing." The voice was hoarse, so soft that even the crane couldn't hear it.

"No..." Su Su burst into tears. Why is it that every time she steals the male lead's favor, she ends up as someone else's toy?

The first time, I was forced to work as a corporate slave in the Imperial Preceptor's Mansion for a month. The second time, I seized the space and entered the sect peacefully, but I was cheated out of two thousand spirit stones by Bai Yishan. As a result, I was urged by the sect leader to practice swordsmanship for a day.

Su Su completely forgot that the second time Heaven truly made things difficult for her was with Chen San; a defeated opponent like him didn't deserve a place in her heart.

The third time, she had just managed to snatch the Heavenly Heart Tree stump when she was reduced to a crane toy.

"Help..." Su Su's voice was hoarse, tears and snot streaming down her face. She managed to close her mouth to keep the filth out of her mouth.

The crane stopped, shook its head, and Su Su followed suit, swaying wildly, feeling dizzy all over.

It snapped twice and then stopped moving.

Pretending to die for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, the crane indeed got bored and stopped on its own. Then, the crane that had been carrying Su Su from the beginning flew to Broken Sword Peak.

Su Su lay perfectly still, not caring about her personal image at all. She clasped her hands together on her stomach, intending to use this image to extort money from the crane rental shop.

Su Su had figured it out. Regardless of whether these were all coincidences or Heaven's displeasure with her, she would not give up on seizing the male lead's opportunity.

Just because Heaven is dissatisfied, does Su Su have to give up cultivation? Most cultivators in the world are defying Heaven, so why not just give up cultivation altogether and all just lie down and give up?

"Cry!" The crane cried out, and at the spot where it landed on Broken Sword Peak, there was a clearing that was just big enough to put Su Su down.

The crane's back trembled, and Su Su tumbled down with it. Just as it was about to fly away, it found that its wings were being grabbed. Moreover, the person was very arrogant, only grabbing three feather shafts, while the other hand was gripping the crane's neck.

"Help! Someone's going to die!" Su Su's voice was hoarse, and she couldn't shout. She could only pinch the crane hard.

"Screech!" The painful cry immediately caught the zookeeper's attention.

(I cried, I failed the PK, it hurts.)
