âWhat was written?â
Little Kingfisher was very curious, âWhat made you so happy? It made you forget all your complaints.â
âIt talks about Little Green Kite, who has grown since his birth, his body covered in a layer of soft fluff, so cute. The magpie couple adores him, giving him insects to peck at every day.â
Lin Qingluo read the letter happily to her little pet, satisfying its curiosity.
âJust that?â
Little Kingfisher was unimpressed, âThat was enough to make Master so happy?â
âThereâs more.ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Lin Qingluo continued, âHeâs learning martial arts from Big brother, making quick progress. Big brother even complimented his talent, saying heâs a promising martial arts student.â
âWith his Wu Clan lineage, he is exceptionally gifted.â
Little Kingfisher comprehended, âFor him, martial arts should be easy. Technically, he should be able to cultivate secret techniques just like the Noble Lord.â
âHeâs still young, itâs not suitable for him to cultivate secret techniques.â
Lin Qingluoâs eyes darkened slightly, looking a bit irritated, âThe danger of foreknowledge has not yet been resolved, we canât create more problems and bring disaster.â
âIf he doesnât practice, he doesnât practice.â
Little Kingfisher dismissed, âThe Wu Clanâs secret techniques arenât so impressive, theyâre just methods of controlling the mind.â
âBrother Meng and the others have arrived at the border.â
Lin Qingluo lowered her head again to read the letter, âFourth Brother, Fifth Brother, Feng Yi, Shitou, Brother Lan, they all came.â
âTheyâre quite slow.â
Little Kingfisher expressed disdain, âThe giant eagle has flown back and forth, and theyâre still not here.â
âNo matter how fast a horse runs, it canât compare to a giant eagle.â
Lin Qingluo laughed upon hearing this, patted the giant eagleâs wing and took out a Spirit Pill to feed it.
The eagle stared curiously at the Spirit Pill, pecking it up and eating it.
This time, Little Kingfisher had no objection, it looked down arrogantly from the eaves, its dark eyes twinkling with ridicule.
With the giant eagleâs new intelligence, it had another little brother.
This new brother seemed to be okay, he helped the Master deliver letters, which made him quite competent, like a homing pigeon.
Lin Qingluo fed the giant eagle the Spirit Pill with the intention of having it deliver letters.
She wanted to live at the border for a while, helping the soldiers and civilians to clear and cultivate the land.
Seeing that her twelfth birthday was drawing near, her family in Capital City were waiting for her, looking forward to their beloved pearlâs return home.
Briefly unable to return, she naturally had to give her beloved family a reasonable explanation.
Especially to her mother.
She could already picture her motherâs tear-streaked face, crying in disappointment upon learning she wouldnât come home for her birthday.
**
Folding up the letter and frowning in thought, she returned to her room, picked up her writing brush and started writing.
She wrote three letters in a row.
Two reply letters, one for Big Brother and one for Lin Yixuan.
The other letter was for her family in Capital City, tactfully explaining why she couldnât return home for her birthday.
Finally, she put down her brush, blew on the letter to dry it, rolled it up and tied it with a fine string.
She then went outside to the giant eagle, and put it into the bamboo tube in the eagleâs right paw.
A golden light flashed between her brows, she gently patted its wing and pointed in the direction of Capital City.
âChirp chirp.â
The eagle understood her meaning. With a long call, it flew into the sky, circled twice over the military camp, and flew away.
**
The afternoon of the day after the giant eagle left, a group of people who had traveled a long way from Woniu Village finally arrived at Phoenix Pass, appearing in Fourth Master Linâs courtyard.
âDamn it, we finally get here, the battle is over, we didnât even get a chance to show off on the battlefield.â
