Chapter 760: The Return of the Black and White Birds

Parrots the size of flies? Xia Fei had never seen such bizarre creatures in his life. Suddenly, as he looked through his memories, he realized, ‘Aren’t these two outrageously small birds Blackie and Whitey whom I encountered in the insectoid territory?’

One was mature and composed, whereas the other was a chatterbox, the two Divine Beasts under the Black and White Gods!

*Whoosh~*

He lightly thrust out his finger. Xia Fei’s first reaction was shock; his second was to close off his spatial ring and cut off his connection with Oro.

He did not know the names of the Black and White Gods, but there was an incredibly high chance that they were from the God Race. Since Blackie and Whitey, their Divine Beasts, had appeared before him, the Black and White Gods must be nearby.

Carrying an important Demon Race figure was very inconvenient. Xia Fei instinctively closed his ring to prevent Oro from being discovered. Otherwise, it would be too hard to explain.

Xia Fei remained unperturbed, allowing the two absurdly small parrots to land next to his ear.

“Greetings, Lord Shatterstar. Greetings, Xia Fei,” Blackie politely said. Whitey disliked Xia Fei, but she nevertheless nodded her head, but that was out of respect for Furball, not Xia Fei.

In Xia Fei’s bosom, Furball yawned and slightly opened his eyes to look before falling back into slumber. He apparently did not care much about the sudden arrival of the two parrots. It was very normal for Holy Beasts to be haughty. Other than Xia Fei, Furball did not truly care about anyone else.

Xia Fei gave a slight nod. “Why are you two here? Please wait a moment. I’m listening to the conversation in the tent; I’ll talk to you guys after that.”

Blackie nodded to indicate that he understood while Whitey coldly snorted.

…

Putting away Peacock Blue, Xia Fei used his Breath Control and quietly left Sezsny’s camp. Once he and the two birds were a hundred kilometers away, he stopped.

*Whew!*

Xia Fei took off Enigmatic Autumn Sun and put on the higher-grade Monohorn Ogre. Blackie and Whitey had seen such things before, so they did not care much about this rather strange suit of armor.

“You’ve really got a lot of guts. Don’t you know that the leader of those warriors is from the Darkpearl Clan, which happens to be your counter?” Whitey chattered like she was scolding Xia Fei.

Xia Fei shrugged. Oro had already explained the distinguishing characteristics of the Darkpearl Race to him, so he naturally knew about that.

“Nothing ventured, nothing gained. If I didn’t get up close, how could I find out their secrets?” Xia Fei nonchalantly countered.

Blackie was surprised, asking, “What exactly did you find out?”

Xia Fei replied, “From what I heard so far, there are three warriors from the Darkpearl Clan, with Sezsny being their leader. They seem to have some sort of plan, bringing more than a thousand Demon Race warriors to the hill zone and using them for their personal gain.”

Blackie asked in confusion, “What sort of personal gain would make them be willing to wager the warriors on their side? If the others find out that the Darkpearl Clan used their Demon Race comrades, their entire clan won’t be able to stand in the Law Realm anymore. This is an enormous risk.”

Xia Fei nodded. “In any case, this has to be something that they’re willing to risk the extermination of the clan for. I think it should be some extremely rare weapon or treasure.”

Blackie nodded like a human. He had returned to its normal size, a head taller than Xia Fei.

“How did you two end up here?” Xia Fei asked.

Before Blackie could speak, the talkative Whitey spoke first.

“Hmph! Because of you!”

“Because of me?” Xia Fei pointed at himself. “How am I involved in all this?”

Whitey began to speak rapidly. “Master feels that he has some connection to you and doesn’t want to see you get slain by the Demon Race warriors, and he also can’t stand to see the God Race’s juniors returning in defeat. As such, he sent the two of us over.”

“So the Black and White Gods are nearby?” Xia Fei looked around, somewhat nervous.

“No,” Blackie flapped his wings and said. “It is inconvenient for our masters to enter the Ancient Battlefield, but Whitey and I are Divine Beasts, so we aren’t bound by the rules. The masters said that they wished to meet you after the battlefield closed.”

“Alright, then. I’d also like to meet them, but I don’t know whether it’s proper to refer to them as the Black and White Gods…” Xia Fei smiled as he lit a cigarette.

Blackie shook his head. “The Black and White Gods is how the insectoids refer to our masters, for one likes to wear black and the other likes to wear white. Still, those aren’t their real names. You should be calling them Lord Hua Hei and Lord Hua Bai.”

“Oh, so their surname is Hua,” Xia Fei muttered as he spat out a smoke circle.

“The masters are very interested in knowing how you are doing with the Law of Primal Chaos and why you joined the Skywing Clan.”

Xia Fei helplessly shrugged, lightly saying, “This is a very long story that will take a while to explain. Before this, I happened to bump into an old fellow from the God Race called Sigh. That old man questioned me about Seniors Hua Hei and Hua Bai.”

Blackie and Whitey were stunned, asking in unison, “You ran into that old monster Sigh? What did he ask you?”

Xia Fei said, “Old Sigh said that your masters are wanted criminals?”

Blackie flapped his wings and helplessly said, “Ugh… This is a very long story, and the details are extremely complicated, but there’s no need to be in a rush. Once the battlefield is closed and you meet with our masters, you’ll naturally learn everything.

“The masters gave us the mission of assisting you. Since the Demon Race warriors are up to something, what do you plan to do?”

Xia Fei sternly said, “Beat them at their own game. They’re after some unspeakable secret, so we’ll follow them and see what they’re up to.”

…

Xia Fei had never imagined that he would meet the Black and White Gods here, but this was a chance. At least, he now knew the names of the Black and White Gods, and these problems regarding the Law of Primal Chaos, which had troubled him for some time, could be resolved soon.

The Demon Race warriors soon assembled once more. Xia Fei watched from a distance, and he saw a dark-skinned fatty with a repulsive and arrogant face walking out of the crowd. The fatty raised his arms high, indicating that everyone should be silent.

“That’s Sezsny of the Darkpearl Clan, also known as Lightning Hand. Dealing with high-speed warriors like you is the Darkpearl Clan’s specialty. The two warriors you see next to him are from the powerful clans of Edusa and Kerry. One is called Cheney and the other is Yaku. They all possess outstanding strength.

“Of the Demon Race warriors, these three are the most powerful, but Cheney and Yaku are all brawn and no brains. The one you have to be most wary of is Sezsny.”

Xia Fei was startled, asking, “You guys know a lot! You even know their names and specialties.”

Whitey smugly said, “Of course! Just think about who we are.”

At this time, Sezsny loudly said, “Brothers from the Demon Race! I have two pieces of good news for you!”

The crowd fell quiet as they listened to Sezsny speak. The consecutive days of victory had raised their confidence and Sezsny’s prestige to unprecedented heights. Everyone believed in him now.

Sweeping his gaze over the crowd, Sezsny sternly said, “First, two days ago, three beautiful girls entered the hills. According to witnesses, their beauty is more dazzling than the stars in heaven!”

“Hurrah!”

The Demon Race warriors all grew restless, starting to drool as they imagined the faces of those beauties.

“They’re right in front of you, not just their beauty but also their many valuable treasures! The one who captures them will be rich!”

“Hurrah! Hurrah!”

The warriors became even more excited. Obtaining both beauties and treasures was a dream come true.

Sezsny was very satisfied by their response and nodded his big head repeatedly.

Suddenly, his expression turned harsh.

“In truth, these girls are just appetizers. There is a big banquet in front of us! According to the spies we sent out, there is a mysterious valley deep in the hill zone, and various signs indicate that a divine weapon might appear there!”

“A divine weapon!”

“A divine weapon left behind from ancient times?”

The Demon Race warriors grew even more restless. Why had everyone come all the way over here? It was so that they could get a chance to get a divine weapon left behind from ancient times!

Even though Sezsny said that there were only signs that a divine weapon would appear, it was enough to have everyone seething with fervor!

*Rumble!*

The over one thousand Demon Race warriors once more went on their way, moving even faster than before. Excitement had caused these warriors to cast aside all apprehensions, all of them trying to be at the front and not to fall behind.

Xia Fei found it very laughable. They had no idea that they were just pawns being used by Sezsny. The faster these warriors charged, the happier Sezsny became.

As they marched night and day, thirty-six hours went by in the blink of an eye. Xia Fei stayed around the periphery of this horde, not exposing himself. Occasionally, a warrior would fall behind because he ran out of strength, and all of them became Xia Fei’s prey.

As the saying went, ‘the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the yellow oriole behind,’ and Xia Fei, this yellow oriole, was a carnivore! He also had two divine beings for companions, one being the Holy Beast Shatterstar and the other Peacock Blue, which had integrated two other Immemorial Mystical Armaments!

The surrounding terrain grew steeper and steeper, the wind more powerful and powerful. Even the rumbling of the train sounded as if it were right beside his ears.

There were four days left until the Ancient Battlefield of Gods and Demons closed, and the calm battlefield gradually began to approach its final climax!

*Bang!*

*Rumble!*

The front of the group suddenly became chaotic and brimmed with excitement. Xia Fei hurriedly looked into the distance and saw that these Demon Race warriors had begun attacking… a very ordinary mountain?!

“Why are they just randomly attacking a mountain?” asked Blackie in confusion. He and Whitey had reduced their sizes and were now perched on either of Xia Fei’s shoulders.

*Whoosh whoosh whoosh!*

As Xia Fei was wondering what was going on, the mountain suddenly collapsed! Dazzling amethysts flew out from behind the mountain! Barely blocking the enemy attacks!
