A Millionfold Return: My Children Cultivate Immortality, I Become a God - Chapter 264

Chapter 264: Customs of Buzhou Mountain, Rescuing a Violet Thunderfinch

“What kind of rule is this exactly?”

Wu Yidao’s face was full of confusion. He knew that some factions had rules forbidding members from leaving at will, but he had never heard of an entire place implementing such a regulation.

Hearing this, Zi Lei sighed helplessly.

“I don’t really know either. After all, the rules were set by the five strongest factions within Buzhou Mountain, each with Late Stage Immortal Emperors. It’s not something our Violet Thunderfinch Clan can understand.”

The Violet Thunderfinch Clan only has a single Immortal Emperor, and that one’s still at the Initial Stage. Naturally, their power can’t compare to those factions led by Late Stage Immortal Emperors.

“In any case, you should leave as soon as possible. While most Violet Thunderfinches don’t hold hostile attitudes toward humans, there are still a few who do. If you stay longer within the clan, you might end up targeted.”

Upon hearing this, Wu Yidao nodded, then, under Zi Lei’s escort, left the Violet Thunderfinch Clan’s territory.

It was only after traveling a significant distance away that Zi Lei finally spoke.

“All right, I’ll see you off here. From now on, you’ll have to make your own way.”

“Mm, take care, Senior. If you ever need anything, feel free to contact me.”

Wu Yidao cupped his fists in respect before heading deeper into Buzhou Mountain. Seeing this, Zi Lei sighed helplessly, then turned around and headed back to her clan territory.

“I wonder if the spatial instability here in Buzhou Mountain is connected to the Ancient Star Road I’m searching for. Oh, and I forgot to ask if the Violet Thunderfinch Clan has encountered Senior Chen Zian.”

After all, when Chen Zian entered Buzhou Mountain, he was already at the Peak of Immortal Venerable cultivation. If he passed by the Violet Thunderfinch Clan, they undoubtedly would have noticed him.

But now, being far away from the Violet Thunderfinch Clan, it was inconvenient to go back and ask, so Zi Lei pushed that thought to the back of her mind.

However, after traveling a little farther, Wu Yidao sensed something and frowned slightly.

“There seems to be a fierce battle ahead. Better to avoid it for now.”

Wu Yidao always tried to steer clear of fights among the powerful in Buzhou Mountain. Battles here were usually between demon beast clans backed by strong forces. He was just a Little Immortal King after all, and it wouldn’t be wise to get involved.

Just as Wu Yidao prepared to leave, he detected something else. His expression grew serious.

“That aura… Is that a Violet Thunderfinch?””Forget it, forget it. Since I’ve benefited from the Violet Thunderfinch Clan’s kindness, I can’t just stand by if one of their own is in trouble. I’d better go rescue her.”

With that thought, Wu Yidao headed toward the source of the battle aura.

Meanwhile, nearby where the fight was taking place, a Violet Thunderfinch was fiercely battling three Golden-feathered flying eagles.

“Damn you, Holy Light Eagle Clan! How dare you attack me? Are you not afraid that the Violet Thunderfinch will take revenge afterward?”

The Violet Thunderfinch’s face was grim as she spoke. She had been sent deep into Buzhou Mountain on orders from the clan leader, Zi You. Yet on the way back, she unexpectedly encountered enemies of her Violet Thunderfinch Clan—the Holy Light Eagles—who had launched their assault.

With her cultivation at the Peak of Immortal King, she could handle one of them, but facing three Holy Light Eagles, even she couldn’t escape. She had to bring out the clan leader’s name in a bid to force the attackers to retreat.

But it was clear that since these three Holy Light Eagles had made their move, they had no intention of letting her go.

“Hmph, our races have a death-or-glory grudge. Killing you won’t end it. If the situation were reversed and you were stronger, I doubt you’d spare us either.”

The leader of the Holy Light Eagles sneered coldly. Their attacks grew fiercer, their sharp claws making it impossible for the Violet Thunderfinch to defend herself. Soon, she was caught with wounds that wouldn’t heal.

At these words, the Violet Thunderfinch’s expression darkened. She struggled to fend them off, searching for an opportunity to escape. Once she made it back to Violet Thunderfinch territory, she swore they would pay a heavy price.

But the current situation was extremely dire. It wasn’t just about escaping; even surviving another two and a half minutes was questionable.

Just as the Violet Thunderfinch was about to fall, a figure appeared before her, holding a long spear. With a single thrust, he sent the three Holy Light Eagles flying.

“What? There’s another strong one!”

Shock and alertness spread across the faces of the three Holy Light Eagles.

The Violet Thunderfinch was equally serious, ready to strike at any moment, unsure if this newcomer was friend or foe.

At that moment, Wu Yidao, spear in hand, calmly pointed at the three Holy Light Eagles and said,

“I’ve saved this Violet Thunderfinch. You’d better leave immediately.”

Wu Yidao had no intention of killing unless absolutely necessary. To strike to kill meant an unending feud.

Upon hearing this, the four demon beasts present were all stunned, clearly not expecting Wu Yidao to intervene to save the Violet Thunderfinch, let alone that the one stepping in would be a member of the Human Clan.

Especially the Violet Thunderfinch sheltered behind Wu Yidao; her face was full of suspicion. She was very curious why Wu Yidao saved her, as she was certain she had never seen him before.

Meanwhile, the three Holy Light Eagles exchanged glances. The leader quickly formed a plan in his mind and snorted coldly.

“He’s just a mere Immortal King at the Intermediate Stage. Could he possibly be a match for the three of us at the Peak of Immortal King? Let’s all attack together!”

At the leader’s command, the next moment, the three Holy Light Eagles launched an attack on Wu Yidao simultaneously.

The Violet Thunderfinch, hiding behind Wu Yidao, instinctively warned,

“Be careful!”

However, Wu Yidao remained unfazed. Perhaps when he was still at the Initial Stage of Immortal King, this would’ve been tricky. But now, unfortunately for them, he had broken through to the Intermediate Stage of Immortal King, making slaying three Peak Immortal Kings a trivial matter.

“Hmph, if you insist on being stubborn, then I’ll just send you off,” Wu Yidao said, gripping his Chaos Spear as he charged at them with imposing momentum. Even from hundreds of light-years away, this overwhelming force could be felt clearly.

Seeing this, the Violet Thunderfinch intended to step forward and help. Though she wasn’t particularly fond of the Human Clan, this man had acted because of her, so she couldn’t just stand by and do nothing.

But in just an instant, she was shocked. Wu Yidao reached the three Holy Light Eagles in front of him, and with only three spear thrusts, he eliminated all three. The Chaos Spear pierced through their skulls, and their Divine Souls were torn apart.

Looking at the three corpses of the Holy Light Eagles, Wu Yidao showed no hesitation and immediately stored them in his Storage Ring. After all, he quite liked to eat, especially demon beasts.

He had never tried Holy Light Eagles before, and he was curious to see what they tasted like.
