Chapter 91 - 108: The Annoying Eagle Beast
Beast Gathering City was occupied by three major clans.
The terrestrial Beast Clan, the flying Feather Clan, and the aquatic Sea Clan.
Every five years, the Clan Leaders of the three great clans would compete for the position of City Lord.
And now, the Tiger Clan City Lord was past his prime. It was highly likely that the next ruler of the city for the coming five years would be the Clan Leader of the Feather Clan.
Several years ago, Song Yi had already defeated the previous Clan Leader of the Feather Clan. Now, the Feather Clan he led was responsible for patrolling and securing Beast Gathering City, as well as guarding the mineral resources in the city’s mountain ranges.
In contrast, his younger brother, Song Ke, was a carefree playboy who paid no mind to serious matters. His greatest pleasure in life was traveling to various places to search for beautiful females.
Lin Xixue was now being kept by Song Ke in such luxury that she had already forgotten that her two partners had died tragically at his hands. Comparing the two situations, she now felt ashamed of her previous life of poverty in the Barbarian Bear Tribe.
’Thankfully, this eagle saved me. Otherwise, I’d still be living in that poor little tribe, enduring hunger and cold, wearing tattered animal hides that barely covered my body, and eating disgusting, bloody roasted meat...’
’I just don’t know when that eagle plans to form a partnership. If only he were half as focused as his brother, I wouldn’t have to worry about this.’
In truth, compared to Song Ke, his brother Song Yi was more to Lin Xixue’s liking.
Song Yi had become the Clan Leader of the Feather Clan at a young age. He was a terrifyingly powerful Seven-striped Beast, with a cold and focused disposition, and had never been seen entangled with any female.
But the thought of his face, so cold it could freeze you solid, made Lin Xixue quickly shake her head, her heart filling with dread.
She took a large gulp of beast milk to calm her nerves. ’The gentle-natured Song Ke is still more likable.’
After finishing the roasted meat, Lin Xixue patted her stomach and was about to go for a walk to aid her digestion when she suddenly heard a chorus of eagle screeches from outside. Her expression brightened, and she ran downstairs with a PITTER-PATTER.
As she went out, she nearly crashed into a golden-haired man approaching her.
Before she could steady herself, the man walked straight past her without offering a hand to help.
The man was tall and upright, with golden hair and blue eyes, a high-bridged nose and deep-set eyes. His handsome face was cold and severe, and a golden feather ornament hung from his right ear.
’This man is strange.’ Unlike ordinary males in the Beast World who couldn’t wait to wear shorter beast-hide skirts to attract the attention of females, he wore a loose, crimson-gold feathered robe that completely concealed his tall and powerful body.
The man’s arrival brought with it the chill and dampness from outside. Lin Xixue, shivering from the cold, wrapped her animal-hide clothes tighter around herself and looked at him with a delicate, dissatisfied pout, yet she quickly hurried after him.
"Where is Song Ke?" The man’s sharp, eagle-like eyes swept over the empty Stone Castle, not missing a single corner.
His low, husky voice was as intoxicating as smoke. Lin Xixue’s body instantly went weak, and her gaze upon the man grew even more heated.
"You’re Song Yi?"
’He rarely comes back. Why today...’
Lin Xixue hurried forward to get closer to the man, her eyes burning as she looked at Song Yi. She softened her voice, putting on a delicate tone, "I don’t know either. He went out and hasn’t come back yet."
"Isn’t he obsessed with you? How could he just leave you in the Stone Castle and go off by himself?" Song Yi narrowed his long, blue eyes, looking at the female’s unsightly expression. He watched as she moved closer, deliberately brushing the softness of her chest against his arm from time to time.
"..." Song Yi’s face was as cold as ice.
The man’s long, sword-like brows furrowed. His thin lips pressed into a tight line, and his jaw tensed. A look of disgust and rejection flashed across his handsome, cold face.
Without any regard for the fact that she was a female, he shoved her away.
Caught off guard, Lin Xixue fell to the ground. She let out a shriek and, trembling all over, glared at Song Yi. "I’m a female! How could you treat me like this?"
Instead of answering, Song Yi returned with a question. He glanced down at her, his voice cold and indifferent, "You are my younger brother’s female. Why are you deliberately trying to seduce me?"
"..." Lin Xixue was momentarily speechless. She could only stare at him resentfully, feeling utterly indignant. This, however, only made her want him more.
Since coming to this world, she had received endless adoration from all sorts of men. This was the first time she had ever encountered such an unromantic block of wood.
Unable to find the person he was looking for, Song Yi turned and left.
The man’s tall, wild body instantly transformed into a Golden Feathered Giant Eagle. He launched himself out the door, his body spanning five meters after unfurling his wings. He soared majestically into the sky and vanished as fast as lightning.
The moment he completely disappeared,
the oppressive aura pressing down on Lin Xixue finally dissipated. She climbed up from the ground, glaring viciously at the distant horizon.
"Damn it! That Song Yi really won’t give me the time of day! I’m the person his brother holds dearest to his heart, yet he dares to give me such a foul look!"
’I’m the most beautiful female here! It’s impossible for any male not to like me!’ Lin Xixue quickly regained her confidence and snorted indignantly. "Song Yi, you just wait! The day will come when you’ll be on your knees, begging me to form a partnership with you!"
