Invincible Snake Emperor

Chapter 663: Chapter 618: Crowned Golden Eagle (2)

’Fast’ is relative.

The Crowned Golden Eagle, a Pseudo Demon King, was carrying the Six-eyed Golden Lion in its beak as it fled. Its speed left him in the dust; he suspected only his precious Immortal Spirit Peacock Azure Owl could catch it.

But Azure Owl wasn’t with Tu Xiao’an right now. It was staying at Su Rushi’s villa, serving as her personal bodyguard.

So, Tu Xiao’an could only rely on this newly subdued Golden-winged Flying Horse.

As he gave chase, Tu Xiao’an’s demonic eyes gazed into the distance, and he spotted a faint black dot. The distance between them was likely no less than a hundred li.

He could only see the Crowned Golden Eagle’s silhouette thanks to his thousand-li sight.

"Giddy-up! Giddy-up! Faster! At this rate, you’ll never catch that golden eagle!" Tu Xiao’an wasn’t about to let the Six-eyed Golden Lion get away so easily.

’In my mind, I’ve already decided the Six-eyed Golden Lion’s fate: submission or death.’

’I absolutely can’t let it run free. That beast is too savage; there’s nothing it won’t do. If I let it go now, it will definitely join forces with the Yellow Demon King, and they’ll be even harder to deal with then.’

"Master, I’m afraid I can’t catch it. The Crowned Golden Eagle is royalty from the Hundred Birds Lineage and is an exceptional flier. Within the entire Hundred Bird Race, there’s likely nothing that can match its flight speed. Besides, it has the Cultivation of a Pseudo Demon King."

The Golden-winged Flying Horse had always been proud of its flight speed, but when compared to the Crowned Golden Eagle, it could only admit defeat.

The eagle had the advantage in both its race and its Cultivation Realm.

Tu Xiao’an frowned. The Golden-winged Flying Horse was already incredibly fast, moving like lightning itself, but now he was about to lose sight of even the black dot that was the Crowned Golden Eagle.

It was clear just how fast the Crowned Golden Eagle was.

It was probably covering ten thousand meters in a single second.

"You have to catch it! If you can’t, what use are you to me? Are those big golden wings of yours just for show? Your potential! Unleash your potential for me!" Tu Xiao’an said indignantly from the horse’s back.

The Golden-winged Flying Horse felt like it was using every last ounce of its strength, but it still couldn’t catch up. The Crowned Golden Eagle was a royal of the Hundred Birds Lineage with a higher Cultivation. It would be a miracle if it *could* catch up.

"Giddy-up, giddy-up..." Tu Xiao’an was getting anxious and slapped the horse’s rear hard.

"Master, stop slapping me! If you keep it up, you’re going to slap the crap right out of me!" The Golden-winged Flying Horse was miserable but couldn’t properly complain. ’I’m a flying horse! Do I really need you to spur me on?’

’Damn it!’ Tu Xiao’an was truly unwilling to let the Six-eyed Golden Lion go just like that. This was equivalent to letting a Deep Mountain Demon King’s Lifebound Golden Core slip through his fingers.

’What a loss. A huge loss.’

"My dear horse, you have to catch up for your master. Here, eat a Lifebound Golden Core to replenish your stamina." Tu Xiao’an had figured it out. If you want a horse to run fast, you have to feed it.

His was a Golden-winged Flying Horse, so of course it didn’t eat grass. With a grand gesture, Tu Xiao’an shoved a Rank Three Demon Spirit’s Lifebound Golden Core into the horse’s mouth.

He had killed quite a few Rank Three Demons just now and collected seven or eight Rank Three Demon Spirit Golden Cores.

NEIGH!

The Golden-winged Flying Horse swallowed the Lifebound Golden Core in one gulp. As if shot full of adrenaline, its speed instantly doubled, so fast it was like it was teleporting.

"Hehe, that’s more like it. Chase them down for your master. I’ve got plenty of Demon Spirit Golden Cores."

A Rank Three Golden Core contained immense power. For the Golden-winged Flying Horse, eating one was basically like taking a powerful stimulant.

’Now *that’s* what I call unleashing potential.’

’Hehe, the Six-eyed Golden Lion wants to run? Not a chance. Not in a million years.’

’And that Crowned Golden Eagle... tired of living, are you? How dare you help the Six-eyed Golden Lion oppose me, the Snake King.’

Far in the distance, the Crowned Golden Eagle’s flight speed slowed slightly. It was confident that no one was chasing it, or rather, that no one *could* catch it.

"Lord Golden Lion, I have brought you to safety."

The Six-eyed Golden Lion, now just a single, ferocious head, gave a grim smile. "You did well. Little Eagle, could it be you also escaped from the Demon Prison?"

’Little Eagle?’

The Crowned Golden Eagle instantly felt a sense of dismay. It was a Pseudo Demon King that had cultivated for nearly a thousand years. But since the one who said it was the Six-eyed Golden Lion, it didn’t dare to retort. Instead, it replied earnestly, "That’s right. I was locked up by those damned humans for a full four hundred years."

"With your flight speed, how could you have been captured by humans?" Knowing it was far from Wencheng, the Six-eyed Golden Lion asked about the little golden eagle’s origins, breathing a sigh of relief.

At this question, the Crowned Golden Eagle’s eyes filled with a cold light. "Four hundred years ago, I competed with a Dapeng Bird for the throne of the Hundred Birds Lineage. Unfortunately, I lost and was severely injured. But that Dapeng Bird, after winning the throne, refused to let me go and hunted me relentlessly. I had no choice but to flee the Yaoling Mountain Range. In order to recover quickly, I had to resort to eating humans, and in the end, I unfortunately encountered a human expert and was captured."

"Hmph. If I hadn’t been severely injured, which greatly affected my flight speed, mere humans wouldn’t have been able to touch a single feather on me."

Speaking of this, the Crowned Golden Eagle was filled with resentment. It hated humans, but it hated that Dapeng Bird even more—despicable and shameless, it had won the throne to become the King of Hundred Birds, yet it still wanted it dead.

That bird was the current King of Hundred Birds, the Dapeng Divine Bird.

"Tsk tsk. You risked your life to save me. Are you hoping I’ll help you reclaim the throne of the Hundred Birds Lineage?" the Six-eyed Golden Lion sneered.

The Crowned Golden Eagle’s cold eyes lit up. "Four hundred years have passed. That Dapeng Bird must have already reached the Demon King Level. Meanwhile, I’ve been imprisoned by humans for over four hundred years with no progress in my Cultivation, still stuck at the Pseudo Demon King Level. If I want to reclaim the throne, I can only rely on you, Lord Golden Lion."

"Haha, you’ve thought it through. Speaking of which, your Hundred Birds Lineage is a great clan, but in my eyes, it’s nothing. A Dapeng Bird at the Demon King Level is even less than nothing," the Six-eyed Golden Lion said with a look of utter contempt.

"Yes, yes, of course! Lord Golden Lion, you are a Deep Mountain Demon King, invincible under the heavens! Dealing with that Dapeng Bird will be as easy as catching a chick," the Crowned Golden Eagle flattered.

’Invincible under the heavens... hmph...’ The Six-eyed Golden Lion felt those words were a mockery. It had been beaten by a snake until only its head remained. How could it be called invincible?

The Crowned Golden Eagle instantly realized it might have said the wrong thing and quickly changed the subject. "Great King, where are we heading now?"

"To the Yaoling Mountain Range, of course."

"Understood."

"Once I recover from my injuries, I will slaughter that city and eat that damned snake alive sooner or later!" The Six-eyed Golden Lion seethed with Demon Qi. It should have been Ruling the World, but now it was fleeing pathetically with only its head remaining. The humiliation was unbearable.

"Six-eyed Golden Lion, where do you think you’re going?!"

Just then, a roar like rolling Celestial Thunder erupted from behind the Crowned Golden Eagle, startling both it and the Six-eyed Golden Lion.

"What’s going on? That snake caught up! Didn’t you say your speed was unmatched? How could you let a snake catch up to you?" the Six-eyed Golden Lion immediately demanded, displeased.

The Crowned Golden Eagle glanced back and saw not a snake, but a flying horse with a pair of large golden wings, and a person riding it.

"Hmph. A mere flying horse thinks it can catch me? Dream on."

Done with the conversation, the Crowned Golden Eagle let out a sharp cry and went full throttle.

"Faster! Giddy-up! We’re about to catch them!" Tu Xiao’an yelled excitedly from the back of the Golden-winged Flying Horse.

His so-called "about to catch them" just meant that he could once again see the tiny black silhouette of the Crowned Golden Eagle. The distance between them was still no less than a hundred li.

"Master, couldn’t you have waited until we were actually close before shouting? That golden eagle had gotten complacent and slowed down. Now that you’ve yelled, it’s flying faster than a ghost!"

the Golden-winged Flying Horse said, exasperated.

"My bad, my bad. Your master got excited," Tu Xiao’an said with an awkward grin. He opened his hand, and a Grade Three Lifebound Golden Core appeared. He stuffed it toward the horse. "Here, eat another Golden Core. Try to catch up in one burst. As long as you can close the distance with that golden eagle to ten li, I’ll show them some legendary eagle-shooting."

After swallowing another Rank Three Demon Spirit Golden Core, the Golden-winged Flying Horse reared its head back and roared. Its speed climbed to another level as it gave chase with reckless abandon.
