Chapter 272: Wood Peacock
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Flamy was flustered and exasperated. It lowered its head only to see its feathers floating off, as well as its bare stomach.
My prettiest feathers!!! Flamy lamented in agony, almost spitting out blood in grief.
It hadn’t seen itself so bare since it was young. It currently looked the same as a golden roasted duck fresh that was from the oven.
I’ve actually become as naked as Goldie!
Flamy knelt down as it repeatedly punched the ground with its wings.
One of the main reasons it didn’t like to use its fire feather skill was because if the rate of use was fast enough, it would become bald for a short period.
…
The situation had been dire just now, so it hadn’t thought too much and had directly released all the feathers on its body.
Goldie ran over. Flamy turned its head to the other side, ashamed and resentful. This damned bald duck… It is here to mock me?
Goldie rushed over and looked curiously at Flamy, then took off the small yellow jacket it was wearing and handed it over to Flamy. “Here! Don’t catch a cold.”
Flamy suddenly trembled and looked at Goldie in disbelief.
After a minute of standing there stunned, its face suddenly flushed red as it glared at Goldie. “Hmph, I don’t need your help!”
As it finished speaking, it waved its wings before expanding them to prepare to fly away.
However, in that instant, it had forgotten that it had no feathers on its body, and it didn’t like flying by only relying on its meaty wings. It flopped in the air and dropped violently, crashing into Goldie.
Goldie rolled on the ground twice, and a purple light flashed…
“Since you’ve seen it, just stay here permanently. You have only yourselves to blame for seeing something that you shouldn’t have seen,” a voice said from behind a tree. “In your next life, remember—see less, listen more!”
Jia Ru noticed that pure long-range attacks seemed unable to threaten this group, so he quickly and quietly descended the mountain while Goldie and Flamy were arguing.
A giant blue beast leapt through the forest with great speed like an agile ape. Its left arm hung on a thick and strong branch, and the strong inertia allowed it to fly away with a whistling sound. Then its right arm accurately grabbed onto the thick and strong branch of another tree over a hundred yards below it.
The branch sunk violently and suddenly as the leaves rustled.
The forest shook violently, and a ray of lightning burst out, piercing through dense leaves and landing on Goldie’s back.
The dense runes on Goldie’s skin shone and let off a chilly light. The power of the lightning was halved instantaneously. Goldie, who had just stood up, staggered. It was sent flying horizontally into the air before crashing into a tree.
Another purple light flashed…
Although Goldie’s back looked black, as if it had been roasted, its injury wasn’t serious, only a flesh wound.
Assuming by himself that he had eliminated one of his enemies, Jia Ru didn’t think that a duck that wasn’t even at the Commander-tier would be able to withstand such an attack.
“How unexpected. There are actually two more Lord-tier familiars. Looks like you aren’t pushovers.” Jia Ru noticed the existence of Dumby and the Horrifying Murderous Female Spider, but he still wasn’t nervous at all.
It was as if these two weren’t Lord-tier familiars, but two Commander-tier familiars.
He snapped his fingers.
A dark shadow descended from the sky, and a strong and pressuring Lord-tier aura covered the area. The dark green Lord-tier aura was overwhelming, and it dyed the entire space green.
“Gugugu…”
Boom!
A humongous beast landed in the middle of the scene, sending smoke and dust into the air.
Strong tremors and noises shook the air. Immediately after that, like a giant formless hand slapping the ground, it quickly landed on the ground.
Finally, the full picture of the huge, ferocious beast appeared.
The huge beast stood proudly with its chest puffed out in the middle of the empty space. Its dark green body sparkled under the sunlight. The tips of its dark green feathers had connecting gold flower patterns, like strands upon strands of golden threads were embedded on a large piece of emerald.
A small dark green sapling on its head danced along with the wind while a tall banyan tree dragged behind it.
It waved its tail lightly, and in the next moment, it suddenly expanded!
The banyan tree like tail that dragged behind its body suddenly shot straight up. Roots crisscrossed against each other horizontally while its branches and leaves expanded. The dense tree covering completely blocked the sunlight coming through the trees in the forest!
The dark green Lord-tier aura took the form of a round tree, while faint green light seeped into the earth beneath their feet.

This was a Lord-tier familiar at the Perfect grade! Moreover, it was a healing and support type.
Gao Peng couldn’t help but turn serious. Now this is going to be troublesome.
Looking at the attributes of the Wood Peacock, one might guess that it was probably promoted to the Lord-tier when it was an Epic-grade Commander-tier, and now, its lowered grade still hadn’t recovered yet.
Although for Gao Peng, recovering grades was easy, since, after all, he could directly see the materials required. However, for other people, it was a rather difficult task.
Two Lord-tier familiars, this was what emboldened Jia Ru!
One Lord-tier familiar was enough for a person to conquer an area and become a small overlord, so, two Lord-tier familiars were even more frightening.
“To allow you to repent for the sins you’ve committed in front of the almighty Saint Luotian after you die, I feel I have to let you know exactly who the Saint Luotian you’re about to meet is.”
Jia Ru shook his black robe, clearly thinking that victory was within his grasp.
In a situation where he was guaranteed victory, he didn’t mind showing off his classy demeanor, especially in front of two Lord-tier familiars.
This sort of feeling was really…
Jia Ru was completely engrossed with himself.
No wonder so many people liked to show off their classy demeanors in front of losers. It turned out that this feeling was rather satisfying.
“Remember, the person sending you to repent in front of Saint Luotian is the greatest bishop in the Golden Hands Order, the Forest of Life, Bishop Jia Ru!” Jia Ru spread his hands with great fervor.
Gao Peng paused.
Huang Ya did the same.
Do all fanatics act like eighth-graders?
Who would bullsh*t so much before a fight…?
Is he crazy?!
“Pooh!” When enemies went face to face against each other, their eyes were exceptionally red. Flamy became furious as it saw the Winged Thunder Monkey, so it opened its mouth and spat out a flaming red ball of fire!
The scorching heat condensed and transformed into a ball of red flames that flew crashing towards the Winged Thunder Monkey.
As if once wasn’t enough to satiate its anger, Flamy continuously spat several times in a row!
