Xia Muqing and Jin Chao returned to the underground cellar again.
When Radiant Sun saw that they had returned, it excitedly said, "You guys have finally returned. That Azure Cloud Eagle has just woken up."
Xia Muqing looked at the black eagle who was tied up and had a piece of cloth in its mouth. She frowned at the sight.
Radiant Sun rubbed its head in embarrassment. "I had no choice. It started to struggle as soon as it woke up. I was afraid that its cry would attract the people of the Goddess Clan. So I could only do that."
Xia Muqing had no intention to blame it. She nodded and stroked the back of the black eagle's neck to remind it to stay quiet. This was a common action between them.
The black eagle, which was struggling, suddenly fell silent. It couldn't see and could only sense the person beside it. It tilted its head and carefully rubbed against Xia Muqing.
Xia Muqing was delighted. Had it recognized her?
