<h4>Chapter 1846 (Raw 1857): Is This Its Biological Child?</h4>


    “Big Brother, this bird is really ferocious, and stupid as well! Hahaha! It purposely ran away a few times and turned back to sneak-attack me, thinking that I would not know.”


    The little monk was really ruthless. He forcibly held the gigantic bird’s wings together and dragged it over that way on the sea.


    “Whoosh!”


    Xiao Chen, who found that bird familiar,nded on the sea with a sh and scrutinized the beast.


    Aside from the tail feathers, most of the scarlet bird’s feathers were stripped off.


    Its enormous, naked body looked pitifully scrawny and weak.


    Xiao Chen appeared startled. To think that this really was the Demon Blood Vulture. He originally just found it familiar. However, he was finally certain after careful observation.


    Upon seeing this scene, Xiao Chen could not helpughing. “Where did you catch it?”


    The little monk answered honestly, “It charged over by itself. I had not gone very far when I saw it flying in our direction. It was giving off killing Qi from its entire body, and it possessed a strong demonic nature. Feeling that it was not easy to deal with, I was prepared to give up on it. Who knew, this lowly bird pecked my head! Then, it flew away whileughing strangely. This was truly unbearable.


    “Look, it nearly pecked through.”


    When Xiao Chen looked, there was indeed a clear mark on the little monk’s shiny, bald head.


    The Demon Blood Vulture held captive by the little monk cried in its heart. After it finished the trial of its race, its strength had increased explosively. Without a second thought, it came out to avenge itself against Xiao Chen.


    After wandering around for a long time, the Demon Blood Vulture sensed the ck Cuss’s aura and quickly gave chase.


    Along the way, it saw a baldy at sea and felt curious, so it pecked him.


    Unexpectedly, the Demon Blood Vulture ended up bringing great trouble upon itself. Even after using all its strength and wits, it still could not defeat this monk.


    After the Demon Blood Vulture was captured, it became a pitiful sight to behold. The little monk, whose head had never been injured before, pulled out all its features in a fit of anger.


    The more surprising thing had yet toe. The little monk actually dragged it before Xiao Chen.


    This was simply mortifying. The Demon Blood Vulture originally wanted to appear majestically before Xiao Chen and ruthlessly teach him a lesson.


    Unexpectedly, the Demon Blood Vulture arrived in such a sorry state, making an embarrassment of itself in front of Xiao Chen.


    The Demon Blood Vulture, who wanted revenge, wished that it could dig a hole in the ground and hide in it. Unfortunately, its reputation waspletely destroyed.


    “Let it go. This is my demonic pet,” Xiao Chen said softly, smiling involuntarily as he took in the Demon Blood Vulture’s appearance.


    The little monk eximed in shock, “This is Big Brother’s demonic pet?!”


    How can that be? This great me is the Blood Vulture King! The Blood Vulture King! How can I be someone’s demonic pet?! Don’t listen to him!


    The Demon Blood Vulture cried out in its heart, Don’t let this great me go! This great me is no one’s demonic pet.


    Naturally, Xiao Chen and the little monk did not care about what the Demon Blood Vulture thought.


    The little monk said tearfully, “Big Brother, sorry about that. I plucked out all the feathers of your demonic pet...”


    Xiao Chen smiled casually. “It’s fine. Go and rest first. I have some things to say to the Demon Blood Vulture.”


    “Hehe! Big Brother is truly magnanimous. I’ll go ahead.”


    After identally reducing Xiao Chen’s demonic pet to such a state, the little monk simply felt too embarrassed to remain here.


    Feeling relieved of a heavy burden, the little monk fled.


    This left Xiao Chen and the featherless Demon Blood Vulture staring at each other in silence.


    The Demon Blood Vulture broke first. It continuously cursed Xiao Chen in its heart. However, when it looked him in the eyes, his eyes always inspired fear in it.


    This was especially so in the Demon Blood Vulture’s current weak state. It struggled to p its wings but found that it could not fly at all.


    Xiao Chen stepped forward, and the Demon Blood Vulture scrambled back in a fluster. Then, it moved forward before retreating again.


    “Plop!” The Demon Blood Vulture staggered and fell over, nearly swept away by the waves.


    Strange. What’s wrong with this silly bird? I’m just going to treat its injuries. Why is it so agitated?


    Xiao Chen rubbed his chin, feeling somewhat confused, some misgivings bubbling up in his heart.


    Has it turned into an idiot? I was prepared to give it that mysterious Medicinal Pill for beasts. It looks like I will have to think twice.


    “Don’t move.”


    “Boom!”


    Xiao Chen sent out his will of soul and finally forcibly suppressed the Demon Blood Vulture.


    He brought out the demonic nature in his body, and the Demonic Qi Veritable Essence Energy in his Primal Core spread throughout his body. His eyes turned ck.


    It’s over! It’s over! He really is going to eat me!


    The Demon Blood Vulture was frightened into trembling. However, in the next moment, Xiao Chen directly used his Demonic Qi Veritable Essence Energy to treat its injuries.


    As ck Demonic Qi entered the Demon Blood Vulture’s body, its injuries healed slowly.


    Feathers sprouted all over the Demon Blood Vulture’s body.


    What a strong recovery speed! What fortuitous encounter did this Demon Blood Vulture run into?


    Xiao Chen was startled. Although his Demonic Qi Veritable Essence Energy was vast, it did not have such a great healing effect.


    It looks like this Demon Blood Vulture had some fortuitous encounters while it was gone.


    When featherspletely covered the Demon Blood Vulture, Xiao Chen looked carefully and discovered some great changes.


    First was in the Demon Blood Vulture’s scarlet tail feathers. These now had a golden line down the middle.


    Then, there was a faint golden light shing in the Demon Blood Vulture’s eyes.


    This fellow’s bloodline mutated!


    Xiao Chen thought to himself, Fortunately, the little monk was the one that found it. Otherwise, it might have been eaten up already.


    Suddenly, Xiao Chen remembered what the little monk said. The Demon Blood Vulture had taken the initiative to fly over. Furthermore, it did so in a ferocious manner, emitting killing Qi.


    At this thought, Xiao Chen stopped what he was doing and gave the Demon Blood Vulture a strange look.


    Was iting to seek trouble for me?


    When the Demon Blood Vulture, who was plotting some tricks, suddenly saw Xiao Chen’s suspicious gaze, it was startled and hurriedly lowered its head.


    “Boom!”


    Just at this moment, a Demonic Might spread throughout the ce. Demonic clouds churned in the sky and surged over, covering the sky above the ck Cuss before stopping.


    “Big Brother, there is a Sovereign Personage experting!” the little monk, who was on the deck, shouted extremely anxiously, somewhat worried that one of the Sovereign Personages of the three great Demonic Dao sects might be giving chase.


    Xiao Chen frowned slightly. He ignored the Demon Blood Vulture and returned to the ck Cuss.


    Who knew, when the Demon Blood Vulture saw the demonic clouds in the sky, it became even more afraid than Xiao Chen was. It immediately flew up and hid in the ck Cuss’s Spirit Beast tform.


    “The aura is not right. It feels like a ferocious beast,” Xiao Chen muttered. The oneing did not seem like a Demonic Dao cultivator but more like a terrifying ferocious beast.


    The little monk said softly, “Even if it is a ferocious beast, it is still a Sovereign-Personage-level ferocious beast. We will end up dying even more miserable deaths.”


    That was true. Ferocious beasts were much more violent and cruel than cultivators.


    Xiao Chen did not say anything. He only took out the God Shadow Bow and nocked an arrow.


    He had learned his lesson. This time, he merged the Heart me with the arrow in advance, preventing the arrow from exploding under the God Shadow Bow’s great force.


    “A Soul Tool!” the little monk eximed.


    Then, after a realization, he said, “Big Brother, you weren’t going to use this Soul Tool to shoot me earlier, right? I was wondering why it felt like death shrouded me, and I could not shake it off no matter what I did!”


    Xiao Chen’s expression did not change as he retorted indifferently, “How can that be? Is Big Brother that kind of person?”


    You are! the Demon Blood Vulture said in its heart as it sneaked its head out of the Spirit Beast tform.


    The little monk rubbed his head, wondering if he really falsely used Xiao Chen.


    Young man, put away the Forbidden Treasure in your hand. It cannot injure me, and I do not have any malicious intentions, either.


    Suddenly, a voice appeared in Xiao Chen’s mind. This startled him. What a terrifying ferocious beast! Its will actually broke through his mental barriers and forcefully appeared in his mind.


    “Can’t injure you? That’s hard to say. However, I believe that you do not have any malicious intentions.”


    Xiao Chen put away the God Shadow Bow, no longer preparing to make a move. This was because he saw a pair of scary eyes at the ends of his vision.


    The owner of those eyes was a Demon Blood Vulture as well.


    However, this Demon Blood Vulture was terrifyingly strong; the Demon Blood Vulture on the ck Cuss was noparison.


    Xiao Chen had the vague feeling that this Demon Blood Vulture surpassed Sovereign Personage, somewhat unfathomable.


    However, this was not a surprise. Demon Blood Vultures were rather special ferocious beasts in the first ce. As long as they took in sufficient demonic nature, their strength could grow infinitely with no particr bottleneck.


    Of course, this was not the reason why Xiao Chen refrained from attacking. The main reason was that he could sense some kind of bloodline connection between the two Demon Blood Vultures.


    That Demon Blood Vulture hiding on your ship is my young son. It has a naughty and mischievous disposition and is rather antisocial. This time, it went missing for half a year and suddenly returned to participate in the king’s trial, where it defeated its senior brothers unexpectedly. Its bloodline has even mutated, which is something unprecedented for my Demon Blood Vulture Race.


    However, after it stole and ate the holy fruit of my race, it ran away again.


    So, that is the case. After knowing the reason, Xiao Chen prompted, “So?”


    I wanted to see who exactly the human that caused it to change so much was.


    Xiao Chen said indifferently, “Well, now that you have seen me, you should know that I have no malicious intentions towards it, have not signed a blood contract with it, nor forcefully tamed it. If you want to bring it away, I have no objections. However, if you intend to attack me, I will not just surrender.”


    No! No! No! You misunderstand. I want it to follow you. I will help you form a blood contract with it.


    Upon hearing Xiao Chen say that it could take its son away, this Blood Vulture King immediately turned anxious and said “no” three times.


    This reply stunned Xiao Chen, bbergasting him.


    Which father would give their own son away and make their son sign a blood contract?


    Why, are you not willing? I can give you some benefits. What do you want? A Demonic Dao Cultivation Technique? A treasure of the Demonic Dao? A divine object from the bottom of the sea? The essence blood of ferocious beasts? Everything is negotiable.


    When Xiao Chen remained silent, the Blood Vulture King thought that he was reluctant.


    Xiao Chen’s lips twitched involuntarily. Is this fellow really its biological son?


    “There’s no need. There’s no need. Being able to subdue a Demon Blood Vulture with a mutated bloodline is a great help for me.”


    Xiao Chen felt somewhat embarrassed. He would alreadye out ahead by gaining a Demon Blood Vulture.


    He was too embarrassed to ask for more treasures.


    Hahaha! Unexpectedly, there is such a good person among humans. In that case, I’ll get this unfilial son to follow you for one hundred years!


    The mysterious Blood Vulture King in the distance seemed to execute some kind of Secret Technique.


    Then, the Demon Blood Vulture in the Spirit Beast tform shrieked, and its demonic nature burst out and turned into a beam of red light soaring into the sky.


    In the next moment, the beam of red light plunged towards Xiao Chen and turned into a ring on his index finger.


    Xiao Chen felt something attach to his soul, entrusted to the scarlet ring on his finger.


    Goodbye.


    The horrifying demonic clouds in the sky came quickly and left even faster, falling back like the receding tide.


    “What’s happening? Why did it run off all of a sudden?” The little monk rubbed his head as he spoke, finding the turn of events extremely strange.


    Xiao Chen looked at the ring on his finger. Then, he looked into the distance and replied, “It came to sell its son.”
