If the phoenix that has transformed into its original form is so noble, then the little yellow chicken sheltered under the wings of the hen is so small and cute.
However, at this moment, her little eyes were filled with fear and anxiety.
The desert chicken is a species with a relatively large population on the Ember Desert, but due to its own weakness, it has fallen to the bottom of the food chain in this land where it grew up.
Just like now, a large number of desert chickens are jumping around and looking for shelter everywhere.
It was nothing else but the Rock-feathered Magic Vulture, a creature at the top of the food chain of the desert chickens, was hovering in the sky above the desert, preparing to hunt.
Watching
The game of eagle catches chicken begins.
Eagle language: "Hide well, hide well, we will come to find you~"
The eagle's cry was uttered, and flocks of Rock-feathered Demon Vultures swooped down. Their rock feathers fluttered, stirring up a large sandstorm, and the sparse vegetation and weathered stones were shattered.
One by one, the hiding desert chickens were found, contributing a whole bucket of chicken to the rock-feathered magic vultures!
There are always desert chickens that become food for the rock-feathered magic vultures.
Fortunately, the little yellow chicken and its mother were hiding in the grass and were not discovered for the time being.
The little yellow chicken trembled with fear at the sound of the Rock-feathered Demon Vulture outside eating the flesh and blood of its own kind, crushing their bones, and the shrill cries of their own kind after being captured.
And its mother was constantly comforting it in soft voices.
Just when the little yellow chicken and its mother thought they had escaped...
"Hey, I found you guys~"
A rock feather flew by, and the little yellow chicken and its mother could not escape the other's detection.
Cluck, cluck, cluck~
When the little yellow chicken was frightened to the point that its legs went limp, the mother hen was clearly trembling with fear, but she still used her not-so-broad body to block the little yellow chicken.
"Baby, run away."
Xu Kun, who could understand the language of the chicken tribe, frowned. He could feel the despair in the mother hen's voice.
Women are weak by nature, but they become strong when they become mothers.
This is not unique to humans; most intelligent species have this kind of emotion.
The little yellow chicken was completely frightened, and even though its mother urged it, it couldn't move.
It watched helplessly as its mother chicken became a bloody mess at the teasing of several Rock-feathered Demon Vultures, with feathers flying everywhere, and fell in a pool of blood.
That look was one of reluctance and regret...
The strong mother hen was ultimately unable to resist the hunting of her natural enemies. Under the gaze of the little yellow chicken, the mother hen was eaten up by three rock-feathered vultures. The bloody scene dealt a heavy blow to the little yellow chicken's young heart.
After a hearty meal, the three Rock-feathered Demon Vultures stepped on the chicken feathers on the ground and turned their attention to the little yellow chicken.
Just as the little yellow chicken was crowing in its childish voice, venting its inner anger and helplessness, a loud eagle cry sounded.
This was an order issued by the leader of the Rock Feather Demon Vulture, announcing the end of the hunt and cleaning up the battlefield.
The three Rock-winged Magic Vultures discussed for a while. Having had a full meal, the three vultures did not eat the skinny little yellow chicken immediately. One of them stretched out its claws and grabbed, and like the other Rock-winged Magic Vultures that had completed hunting, it took the surviving desert chickens towards the gathering place.
These desert chickens under the eagle's claws will naturally become their food. After all, the desert of embers is too barren and it is not possible to eat a full meal every day.
Just like that, following the perspective of the little yellow chicken, Xu Kun watched the little yellow chicken and other desert chickens being locked up in the chicken coop prepared for them by the Rock-feathered Magic Vulture.
Here, there are hundreds of captives like the little yellow chickens.
But it is the smallest one among them, but the most eye-catching, because compared with the yellowish feathers of ordinary desert chickens, its feathers are so bright and colorful.
Its small body is particularly eye-catching in the chicken coop.
However, this special feature did not bring any benefits to it. On the contrary, because it was thin, it often ran into obstacles when competing with other desert chickens for the few sandworms in the soil.
The crisis comes not only from outside, but also from within.
Even though these desert chickens imprisoned in the chicken coop knew that their fate would be to become food for the rock-feathered magic vultures, they still adhered to the principle of living one more day and monopolized the few available foods.
In this way, as the little yellow chicken went hungry day after day, its already thin body became skin and bones, and its number of people gradually decreased.
Perhaps because of its thinness, it did not become the first choice of the Rock-feathered Demon Vultures.
The ones that die the fastest are definitely the fatter and stronger desert chickens.
But even if it wasn't their turn early, when there were only a few skinny chicks left in the chicken coop, it seemed that their fate was sealed.
But as the saying goes, big fish eat small fish, and small fish eat shrimps.
As the natural enemy of the desert chicken, the Rock-winged Demon Vulture is so powerful when hunting the desert chicken.
But they also have their natural enemies.
Storm Hawk!
The existence at the top of the food chain in the Ember Desert.
From the perspective of the little yellow chicken, it saw that the Rock-feathered Demon Vultures, which had eaten its mother, slaughtered its people, and raised them as food, were easily defeated by a group of Storm Hawks.
This was the first time in the little yellow chicken's memory that he had a deep understanding of the four words "the strong are respected".
The Rock-feathered Demon Vulture that murdered its mother met a tragic end. Vulture Mountain was littered with their broken corpses. The little yellow chicken had no time to feel the pleasure of revenge, as it and the remaining members of its tribe became captives of the Storm Hawk.
But this time, before the Storm Hawk could return to its habitat with its spoils, a huge rooster hundreds of feet tall appeared.
Just a rooster's crow was enough to make the storm hawks, which were already unimaginably powerful in the eyes of the little yellow chicken, explode.
Xu Kun immediately recognized the origin of this creature that crushed a group of Storm Eagle warriors with its Dharma body.
The Benzhi branch of the nine branches of the Xuanwu Sect!
Its feathers are earth yellow with a hint of red, and it has the blood ability to shrink the distance into an inch. With a rooster's crow, the earth will shake!
If we trace back the ancestors of the Desert Chicken, it is the Benzhi lineage!
The Ashes Desert is just a place of exile. If a powerful person in the fifth realm, or a descendant of the nine clans of the Xuanwu clan, comes here, it will be a real dimensionality reduction attack.
Through the perspective of the little yellow chicken, Xu Kun also learned that this descendant of the Five Realms Benzhi was exiled to the Embers Desert after committing a serious crime with the Phoenix Clan.
But the strong can live a comfortable life no matter where they go.
This exiled descendant of the Five Realms Benzhi wants to build his own empire in this desert of ashes.
As a descendant of Benzhi, this descendant of Benzhi in the fifth realm, who can be regarded as the leader of all chickens, naturally intends to build an empire based on various types of chickens.
In addition to the rescued little yellow chickens and other desert chickens, Benzhi's descendants have already gathered tens of thousands of chickens of various types.
The fate of the little yellow chicken changed again. It escaped from being a slave and entered the newly established Benzhi Empire in the Ashes Desert.
Although it still lives a life at the bottom of the social ladder and is bullied by other strong chickens there, fortunately, it no longer has to worry about being in danger of death and becoming food for other creatures.
The days passed peacefully one by one. For the little yellow chicken, the tragic death of its mother would wake it up in the middle of the night and become its nightmare. However, the busy work on weekdays and the delicious insects it could occasionally taste made it forget its troubles.
If everything could go on smoothly like this, it might be a good choice for this little yellow chicken.
But it is just as the saying goes: When God is about to confer a great responsibility on a man, he must first make his heart and mind suffer, his muscles and bones tired, his body hungry and empty, and his plans frustrated. This is to stimulate his heart and harden his nature, and increase his ability to do what he could not do before.
The stable life, with the coming of war, the little yellow chicken is now gradually growing up, but its bloodline has not even awakened, and it has gone to the battlefield.
Really powerless!
The struggle between the Benzhi Empire and other forces made the little yellow chicken see the cruelty of war.
But it had no ability to resist and could only pray that the war would end soon so that it could go back to catch those delicious little bugs.
The little yellow chickens are very lucky. They are only responsible for logistics work and do not need to fight on the front line.
But with the fall of the Benzhi Empire, the shadow of war still loomed over them.
There was chaos everywhere, and the little yellow chicken and its friends began to flee.
But how could these fragile little chicks escape from an opponent that even defeated Emperor Benzhi?
Chicks were constantly being caught. Fortunately, the little yellow chicken was very smart. Having been chased many times, it had some experience in escape.
It did not flee with the main force, but hid in a remote area with some friends it met in the Benzhi Empire.
But as the enemy forces that defeated the Benzhi Empire launched a carpet search, the little yellow chicken and its friends were finally found by one of the enemy's soldiers.
In times of crisis, the little yellow chicken was pushed out by its trusted friends.
When facing a strong enemy, you don't have to outrun the enemy. You may be able to survive by outrunning your teammates.
Xu Kun could feel that the little yellow chicken was desperate at that time.
With its simple thoughts, it didn't understand why these little friends who used to catch insects with it would betray it.
If it hadn't been running with them, they would have been caught long ago.
But reality did not give the little yellow chicken time to think, as the enemy had already set its sights on it.
Today, the little yellow chicken has grown into a big hen, just like its mother, and can provide the other party with a good meal.
It retreats, it chases, it has no way to retreat!
Before the little yellow chicken knew it, there was only a thousand-foot cliff behind it.
Accidentally, the little yellow chicken fell off the cliff amid the enemy's anxious shouts.
"Damn, what a waste!"
The captor cursed angrily at having missed out on a delicious meal.
The poor little yellow chicken fell into an abyss that was so deep that it was as deep as a gaping mouth.
But what awaits it will be another change of fate!
