Lin Yuan only saw a giant hawk with a wingspan of nearly 40 meters flying from the sh.o.r.e. It had dark-brown feathers with a sharp metallic sheen. The color of its back feathers was darker, almost black.
Instead, the color of its abdominal feathers was lighter, showing a coffee color. However, the giant hawk's head had golden plumes that were as sharp as a sword and created the sound of a sword piercing the air in flight.
The sword feathers on both cheeks were erected, with a pair of sharp hawk's eyes, making this giant hawk with a wingspan of 40 meters look heroic and extraordinary.
Lin Yuan used True Data to check this giant hawk's attributes.
[Fey Name]: Sword Plume Sea Hawk
[Fey Species]: Long-Feathered Hawk/Sea Hawk
[Fey Grade]: Diamond (10/10)
[Fey Type]: Metal/Wind
[Fey Quality]: Fantasy V
Lin Yuan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. It seemed that this Sword Plume Sea Hawk should have reached the barrier of breaking through to Suzerain. It should be long before it broke through.
Looking at the Sword Plume Sea Hawk flying toward him and the others, Lin Yuan knew that what should come finally came.
The Sword Plume Sea Hawk withdrew its wings and landed on the desolate island where everyone was. The gusts of wind caused dozens of Lightning Gathering Moths to be blown hundreds of meters away before they were able to stabilize themselves.
Zhou Luo immediately commanded the Lava Dragon Lizard to go onto the sh.o.r.e and block before Lin Yuan, Liu Jie, and Listen. He fulfilled his duties as a white-clothed follower and also a servant.
An old man and a middle-aged man dressed in half armor jumped down from the outstanding Sword Plume Sea Hawk's back.
When Lin Yuan saw this old man, an indistinct smile spread across his face.
Wasn't this old man the same old man with a cedar aura following Young Master Zheng back in the Indigo Azure Sea Market?
He scanned the other middle-aged man wearing half-body armor and thought, Did the Zheng family's third lineage send two emperor-cla.s.s experts at once with the intention of attacking me?
How much did they want me to die?
At this moment, the old man with a cedar aura had a straight back and an indifferent expression. His tone was gentle as if he was talking to his own grandson.
“Not bad. All three of you are here. I don't have to bother with more work.”
After saying that, the old man with a straight back and a cedar aura glanced at the Lava Dragon Lizard that was roaring violently and said with some regret, “A Diamond I/Fantasy I lizard. It's somewhat weak.”
When Zhou Luo saw the Sword Plume Sea Hawk earlier and sensed its mightiness, he knew that the strength of this group of people was far from his own. However, he looked unwilling to be outdone.
Zhou Luo knew that Lin Yuan had two Myth Breed feys that could take human form hidden in the shadows.
What else was there to worry about when there were two Suzerain/Myth Breed feys that could take human form and were at least Myth II protecting them in the dark?
Therefore, Zhou Luo said to the old man with the cedar aura without the slightest concern, “Old man, your hair is white, your beard is white, your eyebrows are white, and you're a bit old.”
The old man with a straight back and a cedar aura did not react for a long time. It seemed that he didn't expect someone to speak to him like that.
However, the middle-aged man in half armor besides the old man frowned and responded. “You dare talk back? Quickly leave this deserted island. Otherwise, don't blame me for not warning you beforehand when you lose your life.”
Zhou Luo was about to retort when Lin Yuan put his hand on his shoulder and patted twice. He stopped talking and immediately commanded the Lava Dragon Lizard to retreat while he still blocked Lin Yuan's side.
Lin Yuan was a little surprised at this point as the middle-aged man wearing half armor wanted to drive them away, not directly kill them.
Lin Yuan was puzzled. Was the middle-aged man in half armor not from the third lineage of the Zheng family?
Immediately after that, he heard the old man with a straight back and cedar aura say, “Duan He, there's no hurry. You don't have to rush to drive them away. I still have something to say to them.”
The middle-aged in half armor clearly looked impatient and stored the Sword Plume Sea Hawk into his spiritual spatial zone with a wave of his hand.
Lin Yuan took a step forward and asked with a smile on his face, “Does your Young Master Zheng want the mask on my face so badly that he rushed to send you to make another deal with me?”
A gentle smile appeared on the old man's face, but instead of answering his question, he asked, “This huge Indigo Azure City has only ever had three trees that rise to the sky.
“Whether it's a dragon or snake, they can only coil on the branches of the trees in Indigo Azure City. Do you understand this principle?”
Lin Yuan smiled even brighter and replied, “Of course, I understand that. Which place does not have a tree that rises to the sky, and which tree doesn't have dragons or snakes?
“Self-righteous trees always forget to look at the top and think they are big trees when, in fact, they're actually covered by larger trees.”
Lin Yuan paused before saying, “Are the large trees that rise to the sky the Zheng family's main family or the third lineage?
“If it's the latter, the main family of the Zheng family won't be happy to know that the few branches that parasitize on the tree roots actually have the intention of growing into a big tree.”
The old man with a straight back and cedar turned solemn, and his voice seemed to be synchronized with the coldness of the cedar.
“You have a tongue that will kill you at such a young age.”
Lin Yuan shook the wind-blown moon-white spirit qi clothes and asked instead, “Will I not attract a fatal disaster without this tongue?”
At that moment, the middle-aged man in half armor knitted his brows, looked at the old man beside him, and asked, “Jiao Hanzhong, what's going on? Didn't you ask me to help your fey bear the World Cleansing?”
The old man with a straight back and a cedar aura looked at him apologetically and answered, “Duan He, this is Master's personal matter.
“Wait for a moment, and I'll instantly resolve this big personal matter. We can't taint this good place for World Cleansing.”
The middle-aged snorted, walked a few steps away, and spoke.
