Chapter 596: Non-Mainstream Big Bird
"I know, I'll be careful. By the way, Illusion City, when do you plan to restore it?" Tang Rao asked.
"What are you asking me for, just restore it whenever you say. You're the boss, this is for you to decide. If I do everything, what do we need a boss like you for?" Yan Wei mumbled.
"That's great, Yan Wei, are you actually trying to stage a coup? Tell me, have you been scheming against me all along? Have you always wanted to go solo!" Tang Rao shouted.
"Crazy!" Yan Wei rolled his eyes to the sky and cursed, then directly severed the connection to Illusion City.
After Yan Wei hung up, Tang Rao felt his whole life had become boring.
This guy, Yan Wei, couldn't he chat with me a bit more? I'm deep in the tiger's den here, and you can't even offer me some consolation? A two-cent chat would do.
"Forget it, better to rely on myself than on heaven or earth." Tang Rao mumbled to himself, then began to rummage through the Space Ring.
"Wuluo Country movies... forget it, I didn't bring enough tissues."
"Xiao Ba Wang gaming console, damn it, who stuffed this thing in here?"
"TV series DVDs, damn it, Yan Wei, you lunatic, you've prepared all sorts of stuff..."
The jumble of things inside Tang Rao's Space Ring were all put there by Yan Wei. They really had everything, there was even a Peking Opera collection. Are you actually thinking I've gone mad?
Finally, Tang Rao pulled out a shotgun, a double-barreled one.
"Well, let's shoot some birds." Tang Rao muttered to himself, then loaded the gun with bullets and sat in the yard, aiming at the sky.
Whenever a bird flew over, he would shoot.
In less than an hour, the yard was full of feathers.
"When did the birds of the Seventy-two Domains of the Nine Realms become so lame." Tang Rao mumbled. None of these birds were Spiritual Beasts, they were all just common ones, completely lame.
Initially, he wanted to roast them to eat, but the taste of these common birds was just too inferior compared to that of Spiritual Beasts.
"Eh? That's a good bird!" Suddenly, Tang Rao's eyes lit up. Overhead, a large bird with a riot of colors was circling.
The bird was big, definitely a lot bigger than the eagles and vultures found on Blue Star. Including its tail, it was probably about ten meters long.
It looked like the mythical Phoenix but definitely wasn't one. The feathers were red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet - the Phoenix definitely didn't sport such a non-mainstream look.
"Bam!" Tang Rao didn't care, he just lifted the gun and fired a shot.
The range of the double-barreled shotgun was terrible. The shot barely reached the large bird.
Clearly, this bird was a Spiritual Beast, and not of a low level either. Tang Rao's shot didn't even knock a single feather off it.
On the contrary, the large bird let out a screech, looking down at Tang Rao on the ground, the screech was clearly mocking him.
"Ah damn my hot temper." Tang Rao was pissed off by the non-mainstream bird's look.
To be looked down upon by a bird, that really sucked.
"Fine, you think you're so cool!" Tang Rao put the shotgun away and then took out an advanced tech gun from the Space Ring.
Without a second thought, he aimed at the non-mainstream big bird and fired.
Boom!
The advanced tech gun emitted a beam of white light, hitting the big bird right in the head.
"Wow!" The bird cried out in pain, its huge head drenched in blood.
Tang Rao's advanced tech gun was of the Mahayana Realm level; even a Cultivator of the Mahayana Realm caught off guard would be knocked down. Of course, this was the only piece Tang Rao had, it was too troublesome to manufacture, and the cost was also very high.
The big bird was blasted once and began to fly erratically, its huge body constantly falling down.
"Boom!" At about thirty meters high, Tang Rao fired another shot.
This shot hit the big bird's tail, almost blasting into the bird's butt~~.
"Ow!!" The non-mainstream bird cried out in forlorn despair, and also completely lost its ability to fly, crashing down into the courtyard with a loud thud, smashing heavily onto the ground.
"Hahaha, a Body Integration Realm Spiritual Beast, it must smell especially delicious when barbecued!" Tang Rao grinned, this big bird was enough for an evening meal.
Moreover, this was a Body Integration Realm flying Spiritual Beast, which was quite rare.
If this were to be sold, it would sell for at least ten million Spirit Stones.
High-rank flying Spiritual Beasts, after all, are hard to come by. They can be used for travel as well as for flirting and picking up girls, in the Nine Realms and Seventy-two Domains, they are highly sought-after goods.
However, Tang Rao had no intention of training this non-mainstream bird as a mount; he wanted to eat the bird.
Everything under the heavens is great, but eating is the greatest.
"It just has too many feathers, plucking them will take a while," Tang Rao muttered, stepping forward to first break off the bird's wing to roast and taste.
But as soon as Tang Rao grabbed the bird's wing, he saw a slender figure underneath the feather covering.
What the hell?
Tang Rao was surprised, then swiftly lifted the dense bird feathers.
"Holy shit!" After lifting the feathers, Tang Rao cursed out loud, his eyes firmly fixed on the body covered by the feathers.
Completely bare, not a stitch of clothing, a decent physique, probably about one meter seventy, skin snow-white and translucent.
Yes, this was a woman, as Tang Rao could tell from the things on her chest.
But a naked woman hiding under the body of a strange bird, no matter how you think about it, it's weird.
"Let me check if she's dead or not." Tang Rao thought for a moment, and then reached out his hand, hmm, to check for a heartbeat or something.
"Hmm, she's alive." Tang Rao came to a conclusion.
"What to do?" Tang Rao began to ponder.
"Forget it, let's deal with the bird first." Tang Rao muttered, casually draped a cloth over the woman, and then began to focus on handling the non-mainstream big bird.
The non-mainstream big bird was already dead from the fall, so it wouldn't struggle or anything.
In less than an hour, Tang Rao had completely plucked the feathers, and also separately tore down the wings, chopped them into several pieces, then set up a barbecue stand, and started roasting directly.
Soon enough, a delicious aroma wafted out.
Since it was a Spiritual Beast, the meat was already full of Spiritual Energy, and didn't have any strange taste, only a fresh fragrance.
Tang Rao sprinkled a handful of cumin, and the taste became even better, not exaggerated even if it could be smelled from ten miles away.
"Roasted bird wings, my favorite..."
"Who... Who are you?" Just as the bird wings were eighty percent cooked, Tang Rao heard a pleasant female voice from behind him.
Obviously, the woman hidden inside the non-mainstream big bird had woken up.
"Me? I'm Xiao Hei, who are you?" Tang Rao turned around and asked.
The woman had already flipped up from the ground, clutching the cloth tightly around her body. Looking at Tang Rao with eyes filled with fear and wariness.
