Under the clear night sky illuminated by moonlight.
The giant owl, with one eye shot blind, was wobbling and struggling among the broken and chaotic trees, standing up, making noticeable loud noises.
Accompanied by a strong demonic power fluctuation, a similarly intense demon qi emanated from its body, swirling around like a visible airflow, revealing its astonishing physique and robust life force. From such a high sky, it crash-landed, snapping countless trees and carving a deep groove through the dense forest.
Yet, it still seed to have the strength to continue struggling, showing a remarkably vigorous feeling.
However, it stopped there. The remaining two blood-red eyes of the just-recovered giant owl clearly reflected the waving, beautiful black hair—
Boom!!
A slender, fair hand ford a fist and stamped onto the upturned owl's head like lightning!
The next instant, the whole ground seed to shudder evidently.
Dust and debris were raised to several feet high; the giant owl, which had just struggled to stand up, was slamd hard to the ground, as if its body was about to wedge into the solid ground from the massive impact!! Cracks spread out on the ground like lightning, extending in all directions!!
The girl's figure was as light as a nimble butterfly, leaping back gracefully and landing gently on the ground, right in front of the house-sized demon bird.
From just this scene, it was impossible to see that her slender figure actually had such astounding power, capable of smashing this enormous creature to the ground with a punch, causing its body to sink slightly into the earth as if a massive hamr had fallen, deforming the terrain.
"If I kill you... what then..."
A pair of exquisite golden ghost horns, radiating a holy glow like a full moon, faintly appeared above her head as Miss Saito spoke softly.
Her tone was filled with overwhelming murderous intent; she was truly angered by this troubleso demon bird.
Behind, Gu Mo slightly squinted his eyes; if he hadn't seen that this demon bird was not surrounded by too much blood and resentnt of living beings, and thought of using it to quickly find the Chuye Village, it would have been killed on the spot by Hidechika and the lady.
After all, although it was indeed a very powerful demon in this region, capable of covering mountains with its domain in the Jinzhai area, making it a ruler commanding countless demons, compared to the demon blood inherited by the sisters, it was still far inferior... Its only advantage was having wings that allowed it to soar the skies.
But that was about it; unless it fled imdiately, it would inevitably be slain on the spot within a few encounters...
Blood spattered across the vast sky.
However, this demon owl itself didn't seem to have any such awareness; instead, it was stirred into a frenzy, becoming even more savage and vicious.
It was not until now that it suffered a severe blow, but Miss Saito also seed to have lost patience... Was this the violent side of demonic nature surfacing to her personality? Gu Mo's thoughts raced like lightning but he didn't say anything; instead, he stretched out his hand to stop Hidechika, who was frowning and trying to move forward.
The black-haired girl showed a trace of confusion on her face, but hesitated and still stopped.
"..."
"..."
In the midst of silence.
The giant owl seed to finally feel fear, struggling to stand up again, the cries from its mouth no longer sharp, but only filled with a sense of pleading terror. In its perception, standing before it was no longer a weak prey, but a... ghost.
In the air that made it feel suffocated, the girl's ghost horns slowly faded and eventually disappeared into the air.
With a cold snort, Miss Saito kicked the owl hard without saying anything more, turned around and walked back. Maybe she hadn't been pushed to the extre, or perhaps her bloodline wasn't fully activated. In any case, she managed to suppress her violent instincts smoothly and returned to normal.
"It's okay now..."
Returning to the side of the two, she took a deep breath, seemingly striving to suppress sothing, and said wearily.
"Mm, I'll take it from here."
Gu Mo gave the girl a thumbs up in approval, then strode forward. Seeing this, Hidechika quickly followed with quick steps, her hand resting on the hilt of her sword at her waist.
Despite proving his abilities along the way, she still instinctively felt sowhat uneasy, probably due to the initial impression and habits ford... The two quickly arrived in front of the giant owl, with the demon bird lying prostrate on the ground, letting out weak whimpers after narrowly escaping death.
Gu Mo reached out and touched the giant head of the demon owl, then let go gently.
"It's done."
He said calmly.
The next mont, a shrill, penetrating cry echoed through the mountains and forests.
The black-haired girl was alertly about to draw her sword to prevent the demon bird from suddenly attacking, but was surprised to find the heavily injured and on the verge of death demon owl seed excited, its remaining two eyes tightly fixed on Gu Mo, displaying a remarkably obvious fervent emotion.
As if seeing the closest and most trusted person.
— "Base Contract."
Using such a skill for the first ti, its effect seed quite good.
Gu Mo could feel a subtle and clear connection forming; he had signed a cellular-level contract with this giant owl, and without any resistance, it beca his most loyal servant.
