Chapter 859: Way of the Sacrificial Bird

Little Black Bird was struck by the lightning. The small cloud thought that it would turn Little Black Bird into charcoal. Who would have thought that even though Little Black Bird was making a scene by rolling and crawling around, he was still alive and kicking after half a day? He also constantly provoked the cloud.

“Aiya, you stupid lightning. You can only count to ten, right?! If you can do more, prove it to me by striking me twenty times!”

“Cheh! Is this really a lightning bolt? It’s so weak! I can’t feel anything when it strikes my body!”

“Little weakling, did you not eat? Why don’t you come back after eating? You are so weak, I feel ashamed for you! No wonder you were only assigned to guard weeds, you are too weak!”

…

‘Master, I have been struck by dozens of lightning bolts. Although the lightning is not as strong as the ones outside, I can’t hold on for much longer. You have to hurry up!’ Little Black Bird said to Yun Chujiu with his spiritual sense.

“Little Black, there doesn’t seem to be any abnormal spiritual fluctuations here. We have to change locations,” Yun Chujiu said with a frown.

Little Black Bird was about to cry. Master, you have to be more careful! I can’t fly here. I can’t run away from these damn lightning bolts forever with these two short legs!

Just as Little Black Bird was cursing in its heart, Yun Chujiu picked up Little Black Bird and sped away. The lightning bolts in the sky had not reacted for a moment. By the time it had recovered, Yun Chujiu had already run dozens of miles away, then, she placed the Little Black Bird on the ground and said, “Continue teasing it!”

Little Black Bird had no choice but to provoke Wu Yun once again. “Bastard thundercloud! I’m warning you, I’m not afraid of you. I’m just tired of the scenery of that lousy place. If you have the guts, continue striking me!”

“You can’t strike me with lightning me anymore, right? Why don’t you admit defeat? I won’t laugh at you. After all, not all lightning bolts deserve to be called Heavenly Lightning. There is still a kind of weaker version called Vegetable Lightning in this world.”

…

The Wu Yun was so angry that it twitched in the sky. Ever since it gained sentience, that was the first time it had been insulted! It had to electrocute that ugly bird to death!

Little Black Bird was struck by lightning again. When he felt that it couldn’t hold on any longer, Yun Chujiu gave it two heavenly grade exploding spirit pills and instantly revived him to full health. Little Black Bird was also shocked at her willingness to use such high-grade pills on him.

When the Little Black Bird finally couldn’t hold on any longer, Yun Chujiu let the Little Black Bird back into the Spirit Beast Bag. She thought that the lightning would vent its anger and strike her instead. She did not expect that this Wu Yun would stop for a while and then float away.

From that day on, Yun Chujiu started to exploit the situation.

Little Black Bird’s miserable daily life now involved provoking the Elixir Valley Wu Yun and then get struck by lightning! The Wu Yun here hated that ugly fire-breathing crow to death. It felt that the bird’s mouth was too mean so it had to kill it!

Finally, three days later, Yun Chujiu said to Little Black Bird, “Little Black, I finally found a spiritual fluctuation somewhere, I need to confirm it’s really there.”

Hearing Yun Chujiu’s words, Little Black Bird could only change the accept its fate and continue to curse the lightning cloud. Fortunately, while he did not learn anything else from Yun Chujiu, his cursing had reached a new level with constant use.

Yun Chujiu suddenly raised her hand and shot a bolt of purple lightning toward a specific area. As expected, she encountered a barrier. It seemed that she had found it!

“Master, can I call it a day?!” Little Black Bird asked pitifully.

Yun Chujiu nodded and let Little Black Bird back into her Spirit Beast Bag. Then, she struck the enchantment with lightning a few more times. To her surprise, she found that the enchantment had trembled from the repeated impacts. This meant that the enchantment was not that strong and she could break it.
