Chapter 439: Chapter 49: The Big Fat Bird_2
The Bone-eating Demon Bird was eager to fly and snatch someone, but hesitated for a moment and suddenly looked at him warily. "Gua, why don’t you fly?"
"I’ve eaten too much, got too fat, so I can’t fly anymore."
"Gua, gua, that’s funny, that’s funny, you big fat bird, can’t move, chubby, you really are clumsy." It cackled as it flew away.
Xiao Jie was at a loss for words. Alright, he retracted his previous statement; the local demons were too impolite.
Fortunately, it seemed like the illusion effect of the Phantom Spirit Pearl could pass a Monster’s judgment.
Xiao Jie continued forward, and the deeper he went, the more birds there were in the trees. At first, there were all sorts of demonized birds, Bone-eating Demon Birds, Bloodthirsty Demon Birds, Bone-Carving Demon Sparrows.
It wasn’t long before some true Bird Demons appeared.
Eagles, vultures, crows... there was even an Eagle Demon. All sorts, all with the appearance of half-human, half-bird.
Circling in midair, or perched on the thick branches of trees, as far as the eye could see there were red dots overhead.
Xiao Jie felt a bit nervous inside; no matter how much confidence he had in the illusion effect of the Phantom Spirit Pearl, walking alone in a horde of monsters was still unnerving.
Luckily, these demons looked at Xiao Jie with curiosity but none attacked.
Xiao Jie also noticed that there were some Monsters on the ground. For instance, next to a row of wooden cages nearby, Xiao Jie saw a two-meter-tall rooster standing, hands on its hips, sighing towards the sky.
"All these fellows are bad birds, just because they can fly they think they’re so great? Making me do such menial tasks as picking wild fruit and chestnuts, outrageous! My ancestors were renowned Great Demons!" It complained as it dumped the collected fruit from the basket into a large bamboo basket for storage.
Suddenly, it turned its head 180 degrees and looked towards Xiao Jie behind it.
"Eh, you look rather unfamiliar, friend?"
"Hey, I’ve just joined the group. But I’ve certainly eaten my share of humans, you see my figure?"
The big rooster nodded; the difference between a demon and a Demon was mainly seen in the change of form. Demons generally looked like humanoid creatures, even with the head of a bull or the muzzle of a horse. They had the outline of a human, and you couldn’t tell the difference from a human with a set of clothes on.
Once a demon ate a human, their form would change, grow larger or smaller. In any case, they grew increasingly less human-like, and demons generally didn’t wear clothes. Xiao Jie’s current appearance, however, was seventy percent non-human.
"Eh, brother, are you also in a tragic state, being ridiculed?"
"Ah, precisely, these flat-haired beasts are truly despicable. Just because they can fly, they act so superior. So what if birds can fly? It’s more valuable to be down to earth like us."
"Ooh ooh! Brother, you’re absolutely right. These fellows flying around in the sky, they have no idea about the principles of being down to earth—er, I mean, of being a good demon."
The big rooster, finding a kindred spirit, poured out his grievances.
It turned out that this big rooster was originally a rascal from a nearby town, who, after accumulating a buttload of gambling debts, had no choice but to eat his creditor and flee to Duan Hun Forest to become a Demon.
Although he was a Bird Demon, he couldn’t fly and could only act as a ground-bound chicken, leading to disdain from the other demons, and was left to do odd jobs.
Xiao Jie deliberately engaged in conversation; the two birds chatted away, quickly getting along famously.
Perhaps it was due to their shared misery, the ground-bound chicken was an open book.
"Where’s our boss?"
"He’s inside, as you well know."
Xiao Jie followed where the big rooster was pointing and saw that atop the thickest tree, there was a massive treehouse that stood out among all the other Bird Demons who didn’t even have a nest to their name.
It seemed that this was the Boss Room, but how to get in there and find Ying Baiyu without drawing attention?
As he pondered, a shrill bird call came from behind.
"Gua gua, look! Look!"
Xiao Jie turned around and saw several Bird Demons being escorted by a group of Bone-eating Demon Birds, with a group of ’humans’ in tow.
Among them was the one that had spoken to Xiao Jie earlier.
Damn, they actually got caught?
These humans were evidently local residents of Canglin State, several Sheep Headmen, Bull-men in tattered clothes looking like farmers, and a plump pig-headed man in a brocade robe, looking around fearfully at the surrounding demons.
As the Bird Demons saw food, they swooped down from the treetops.
"Where did they capture these humans?"
"Just at the edge of the forest, they ran over from a village to the south, tasty, gua gua, tasty."
The surrounding Bird Demons circled and landed on nearby branches, eyeing these ’humans’ rapaciously. freёnovelkiss-com
"Eat! Eat!"
"Don’t hurry to feast, let the king have a look first."
"If the king doesn’t eat, we will! We will!"
"King! King!"
The Bird Demons clamored with a gua gua commotion, really quite noisy.
"Shut up, a bunch of idiots!" Suddenly there was the cry of an eagle, and all became silent.
A figure appeared at the edge of the nest.
With a leap, they descended gently like an angel incarnate.
Xiao Jie took one look and couldn’t help but admire the handsome appearance of the BOSS.
Contrary to the half-human half-beast form of those like Niu Dali and Li Jinlin, even before their transformations, they looked monstrous.
The figure before him, Ying Baiyu, at first glance appeared human, with a handsome face and flowing black hair. He only had a pair of black eagle wings on his back and white plumes behind his ears, which betrayed his identity as a demon.
