81: Chapter 81 Revenge

Eight thousand meters above the ground.

Qin Ce sat on the back of the Azure Luan, looking down at the flock of Ravens that were still circling below.

A total of seventeen had besieged him, while the rest of the Raven Flock had already flown far away.

There were three lower-grade Silver-rank Ravens and fourteen Upper Bronze Rank Ravens.

It was these very creatures that, ten minutes ago, had driven him and the Azure Luan to a dead end!

The Azure Luan had been heavily injured, and he had been on the verge of death; man and beast had almost been buried under their hunt.

If the Azure Luan hadn't broken through at the last moment, and if the second stage of the Nine-fold Azure Sky, Wind Mastery, hadn't awakened to significantly boost the Azure Luan's speed and combat power, it would be their corpses falling into the mountain forests below right now.

But now.

The corners of Qin Ce's mouth curled into a cold arc.

He gently patted the Azure Luan's neck.

“Xiao Qing,” he chuckled softly, “is it our turn next?”

“Let those bastards taste what true despair feels like!”

The Azure Luan turned its head, looking at him with its golden eyes.

Then it turned toward the Ravens and let out a cry filled with hatred.

...

The three Silver-rank Ravens below were still circling there.

They hovered at an altitude of about six thousand meters, their blood-red eyes fixed on the sky above. In their eyes, although the Azure Luan had broken through, it was still only at the Bronze Rank.

Instead, what they were more worried about at the moment was that the Azure Luan was flying so high they couldn't reach it. If the Azure Luan escaped now, they would likely fail the execution mission ordered by the Raven King!

The other fourteen Upper Bronze Rank Ravens, however, were somewhat hesitant.

The process by which the Azure Luan had killed their kin just after its breakthrough was too clean. They vaguely realized that they might no longer be a match for the Azure Luan.

But because of the Raven King's command, they had no choice but to continue the siege. Within the flock, the Raven King's orders were an iron law that could not be disobeyed!

...

Seeing the Ravens below still restless and ready to move.

Qin Ce said coldly,

“Xiao Qing, kill!”

The Azure Luan let out another clear cry, tucked its wings, and dove downward like a bolt of azure lightning!

The wind howled in its ears, and clouds flashed past its eyes.

As the Azure Luan began its dive from eight thousand meters.

The altitude dropped rapidly, and with the added acceleration of gravity, the Azure Luan's speed reached its absolute limit!

And when they saw the Azure Luan's figure descending from the sky and rushing toward them again, the three Silver-rank Ravens let out excited cries simultaneously!

The Azure Luan hadn't run; it had actually charged down!

That annoying fly had actually come down!

This was seeking death!!!

The three Silver-rank Ravens let out angry screeches at the same time, bloodthirsty light flashing in their blood-red eyes. They spread their wings and rose to meet it in a triangular formation!

The fourteen Upper Bronze Rank Ravens followed closely behind, quickly forming a hunting formation below!

However, in the next moment—

They were stunned.

The Azure Luan's speed was incredibly fast!

In their eyes, a single flap of the Azure Luan's wings was like a flicker, its figure already crossing a distance of over a hundred meters!

Triple the speed.

The enhancement of the Wind-Attribute Roaming Dragon.

The acceleration of gravity.

Under the influence of all three.

The effect was terrifyingly powerful!

Just as the two sides were about to make contact, the Azure Luan flickered again!

Before the three Silver-rank Ravens could even react, the azure shadow had already swept past them, pouncing directly toward the fourteen Upper Bronze Rank Ravens below!

“Gah—!!!”

A terrified scream rang out.

An Upper Bronze Rank Raven instinctively tried to dodge, but the Azure Luan was too fast—so fast that its nerves didn't have time to transmit the command to flee.

Qin Ce gave the order.

A Spider-Web Wind Blade was generated.

The large azure net draped over its head, and the Raven was firmly ensnared.

But unlike before—

This time, the Raven didn't struggle as it had previously.

The binding effect of the Spider-Web Wind Blade at the black iron rank had already been enough to make it impossible for a bronze low-grade Raven to break free.

Now that the Azure Luan had promoted to mid-grade bronze, the power of the Bronze Rank Spider-Web Wind Blade had increased by more than ten times!

The eighteen Wind Blades were no longer shallow superficial wounds; they cut directly into the Bronze Rank Raven's muscles, bones, and internal organs!

And the wind cords that the Wind Blades subsequently transformed into were like real chains, tightly binding the Raven's wings, body, and talons.

It struggled desperately but couldn't even manage a single movement.

Then, the Upper Bronze Rank Raven, just like the bronze low-grade Ravens before it, began to fall.

But this time, it was falling straight down from an altitude of over five thousand meters.

“Gah—!!!” A shrill scream echoed in the air.

But eventually... after a long while.

“Thud—!”

A dull sound came from below.

Qin Ce didn't even bother to look down at the result.

Falling from this height, death was a certainty.

“Next.”

The Azure Luan made a sharp turn and instantly appeared in front of another Bronze Raven!

The same Spider-Web Wind Blade, the same result—

Another Raven fell screaming!

A slaughter!

A complete slaughter!

Those Upper Bronze Rank Ravens had absolutely no power to fight back before the current Azure Luan!

Their speed couldn't catch up, their attacks couldn't land, and their defenses couldn't hold!

Next came the third, the fourth, the fifth...

Within a mere minute, six Bronze Ravens had already been hit by Spider-Web Wind Blades and fallen from the high sky!

The Azure Luan's figure wove through the sky like a bolt of azure lightning.

With every flicker, a large azure net would shroud a Bronze Raven.

One by one, the Upper Bronze Rank Ravens were netted and fell screaming from the heights.

By now, the three Silver-rank Ravens finally reacted.

They went completely mad.

Fires of rage burned in their crimson eyes as they stared fixedly at the azure shadow weaving through the flock of Bronze Ravens.

They roared and pounced at the Azure Luan, wanting to stop this slaughter.

But their speed... was too slow.

With the enhancement of the Azure Luan's triple speed, their movements were like slow motion.

With every pounce, the Azure Luan could easily dodge, and while dodging, it would conveniently net another Bronze Raven.

The seventh Bronze Raven was killed using a Tethering Wind Blade to directly shift the direction of an attack after the Azure Luan dodged a Silver-rank Raven's strike.

The eighth Bronze Raven was taken out while under the siege of two Silver Ranks.

The ninth one died from friendly fire when a Silver-rank Raven's attack landed directly on it.

The tenth...

...

When the last Upper Bronze Rank Raven fell screaming, the eyes of the three Silver-rank Ravens turned completely red.

Anger.

A heaven-shaking anger.

Over a hundred of their kin had been followed and slaughtered by this human.

The high-level Raven hunting squad of eighteen had fifteen of its members killed by him.

Moreover, they were killed cleanly right in front of their faces.

This was a disgrace!

This was rubbing their Silver Rank dignity into the dirt!

The leading Silver-rank Raven let out a screech of extreme fury, no longer caring about any formation or cooperation.

It spread its wings and charged straight at the Azure Luan with bloodshot eyes!

It wanted to go head-to-head with the Azure Luan!

It wanted to tear this damned human to pieces!

Seeing this, the other two Silver-rank Ravens adjusted their direction and followed closely behind.

The three Silver Ranks, one after another, charged from the same direction like three black meteors!

Qin Ce's eyes narrowed slightly.

Here they come.

He gently patted the Azure Luan's neck.

The Azure Luan understood; it didn't dodge or flee.

With a flap of its wings, it also met them head-on!

The two sides thus began their head-on dash in mid-air!
