I woke up to find myself transmigrated into a disabled child.

Chapter 264 The New Underling

Sure enough, as he grasped the completely deformed hand, or rather, claw, a glint flashed in Lezhi's eyes. His body had just given him a pleasant surprise.

What else can we do next?!

As the bird spun rapidly, Lezhi swiftly extended his arm, digging his claws deep into the bird's flesh to steady himself, while also eliciting a few cries of pain from the bird.

Because of his sharp claws, he was able to climb on the huge body of the celestial bird as if walking on flat ground, and soon he arrived at the base of the wing on one side of the celestial bird's body.

To strike a snake, strike its vital spot. If you're going to take action, it's best to hit the mark in one fell swoop. If Lezhi didn't want to kill Fanle Bird, then he could only control its actions. A smile appeared on his lips, and he freed his right hand and made a few grasping motions in the air. Suddenly, his eyes sharpened, and before Fanle Bird could react, he quickly slashed at his chosen target.

"咴咴～"

A scream pierced the sky. Lezhi's grab was incredibly vicious, instantly crippling one of the Fanle Bird's wings. With only one wing remaining, the Fanle Bird could no longer support its body and continue flying.

The massive body lost its balance in the air, struggled for a while, and finally rolled into the jungle unwillingly, crushing countless plants along its descent and creating a mess along its path.

The culprit behind all this was the bird of joy, which had already left the plane and was destined to crash. It flapped its wings and stood in mid-air as a victor, watching the bird of joy fall in a sorry state.

With a heavy slam, the Bird of Joy lost all chance of turning the tide, and the outcome of the battle was clear.

Originally, the victorious side should have been cheering, but because the victory came too suddenly and too thoroughly, the onlookers were still wary of Lezhi. Therefore, the depths of the forest, which had been temporarily used as a battlefield, were now completely silent.

No one, including Maoqiu and Leixiu, stepped forward; they all just watched from a distance.

Pure white wings slowly flew towards the Bird of Joy and landed, a flash of light passing through his hand. As Yuezhi's fingers returned to normal, he arrived in front of the Bird of Joy.

Glancing at the birds and beasts lying on the ground in agony, unable to stand, Lezhi leisurely folded his wings, his expression elegant as if he were on vacation.

He stared directly into the eyes of the celestial bird. Though a smile played on his lips, the lingering bloodlust in its pure white eyes sent shivers down the bird's spine. His rosy lips parted slightly, and the words that came out were laced with boundless coldness: "Do you admit defeat? Or do you wish to continue?"

What's the point of continuing? Are we going to be completely defeated?

Understanding the unspoken meaning behind Yuezhi's words, Fanle Bird couldn't help but shiver, its dark eyes looking away for the first time during their eye contact.

Although it could still move, after the battle, it understood that Lezhi hadn't used its full strength; it had crushed it almost entirely on instinct.

Continuing will not change the outcome, but it will teach a more thorough lesson.

From the Windwalker Clan to the Spiritwing Clan, the invincible Prosperous Bird let out a soft cry, its raised head slowly lowering, its crest completely drooping, showing its submission through its actions.

He who knows the current situation is a hero.

If the two sides were evenly matched, then Fanle Bird would fight to the very end, even at the cost of his life. But that's clearly not the case now. Lezhi has proven with his strength that he can easily crush him, and this is without Lezhi using any of his abilities.

The Joyful Bird is not stupid. On the contrary, it was able to track down Lezhi and his group all by itself and even build up a team along the way. Among birds and beasts, the Joyful Bird is definitely one of the best.

Therefore, it didn't hesitate for long before immediately recognizing the situation.

Confirming that the bird before him had no intention of continuing to resist, the fighting spirit in his eyes gradually cleared. Emotions slowly returned, his terrifying aura softened noticeably, and even the smile on Lezhi's face seemed much more genuine.

"That's right. In that case, you have to be a good boy/girl from now on~"

"Eh~"

Well, although it wasn't as smooth and tacit as communicating with Maoqiu, at least I could understand what it meant. Lezhi raised her hand and patted Fanle Bird's head feathers, pondering to herself.

The bird, having already recognized its owner, readily accepted Lezhi's touch. Not only did it accept it, it thoroughly enjoyed it. Heaven knows that from the very first moment it saw Lezhi, it secretly longed to get close to him, but the little white ball of fur was watching it too closely, so it never had the chance.

Now things are different. Lezhi has won. According to its logic, Lezhi is its master. Both are birds by their masters' side. Its size is about the same as that little white ball after it transformed, but its feathers are much more colorful. Among birds and beasts, colorful feathers are always the most popular trend indicator.

When it first met its owner, wasn't the owner also dazzled by its own feathers? What does this show? It shows that although it came later, it had an advantage.

The bird that was once the owner's favorite might soon be replaced by another bird!

With its round eyes narrowed in enjoyment, the Joyful Bird was happily imagining its wonderful future while enjoying the caresses of Joyful Bird. It did not notice anything unusual about its behavior, which was almost seamless from deciding to submit to instantly accepting Joyful Bird's caresses.

The parties involved are often blinded by their own perspective, but from an outsider's point of view, it's a completely different story.

Those who were able to witness this battle up close were generally people with exceptional combat skills and sharp eyesight. They could immediately detect whether the people on the battlefield still intended to fight.

Almost at the same moment that Lezhi withdrew its momentum, without needing any other signals, they all rushed towards this direction.

Maoqiu took the lead, and before it even arrived, its voice reached the ears of Lezhi and Fanlebird.

"Chirp chirp~ Chirp chirp chirp~"

The call not only expressed concern for Lezhi, but also a hint of worry about the safety of Fanle Bird. It was probably something like, "That flashy fellow isn't dead, is he?"

"Hush~" Although the fluffy bird was concerned, its tone made the bird unhappy. The bird, which had already placed itself on the same level as the fluffy bird, raised its eyes and cried out unhappily to express its protest, while also trying to be affectionate with the bird.

However, the flirtatious glances from the celestial bird were not received by the intended recipient.

The main reason was that as soon as Lezhi looked up, he saw the person closely following Maoqiu, and his attention was immediately drawn to them.

"Lei Xiu, what are you doing here?"

Lezhi caught the fluffy ball that rushed into her arms, but her eyes were fixed on Lei Xiu.

The fluffy ball, already used to it, didn't protest. It simply nestled comfortably in Lezhi's arms, cooing and settling into a position before stopping. Through Lezhi's shoulder, the fluffy ball gave the still-lying, feigning-death bird a disdainful look.

You think you can mess with me...?

Just from a glimpse from afar, Maoqiu knew what Fanle Bird was up to. Such a little scheme could not possibly escape the notice of the battle-hardened Master Maoqiu.

You have to understand that this relationship with Lezhi was something that Maoqiu snatched from those ugly big insects in the beginning, and then it was something that Maoqiu fought with those tree spirits for. Even now, only Maoqiu can occupy the most important position by Lezhi's side.

Lei Xiu doesn't count, because Mao Qiu can't beat him.

But if it can't beat Lei Xiu, can't it beat Fan Le Niao? It doesn't even need to fight; just one look from it is enough to infuriate that flashy, green tea bitch.

The two birds' playful argument didn't bother Lezhi and Leixiu, especially Leixiu. After several days apart, he looked Lezhi up and down to make sure she wasn't hurt before answering, "I came to find you..."
