Chapter 155 – Surprise, Taming the Eagle! (Part One)

[Ding! Congratulations, Host, for gaining a little admirer. Prestige: +100. Obtained: Maidenheart Badge ×1!]

Ye Yunxi: ……

Hah, what the hell?

Why is the System’s setup getting weirder and weirder??

“Young—Young Emperor! Wh-What’s the urgent matter you called me for?”

Mo Yuxiang rushed in, panting and out of breath. The atmosphere in the room was eerie—Lao Yezi’s face was pale, the little princess was teary-eyed, and the entire scene felt bleak and desolate.

Mo Yuxiang: …

Damn, who the hell is this fierce enough to have barged into the Di Estate??

System (proudly): My Host! This is what you call a direct assault on the Yellow Dragon!

“Carry your sister-in-law’s luggage.”

Mo Yuxiang: ……

So, after all the rush and urgency, he was just called here to carry luggage??

Glaring fiercely at Ye Yunxi, Mo Yuxiang could only resign himself to being a porter, carrying the luggage upstairs.

Tsk, she’s even been brought home!!

What’s so great about this woman?

Sure, she’s a bit pretty, but what exactly happened during the all-around competition??

Even if something did happen, given the Young Emperor’s status, there’s no need to personally bring her home, right?

And no matter how you look at it, this woman isn’t worthy of my Young Emperor.

Mo Yuxiang grumbled to himself as he went upstairs.

Even though it was her first visit, Ye Yunxi remained completely calm and showed no sign of unease. Di Junxie curled his lips into a faint smile, leading her to the room’s entrance and gently pushing the door open.

The room was beautifully decorated, full of charm and clearly meticulously arranged—it felt incredibly warm. But Ye Yunxi didn’t care about any of that. She only asked, “Where’s the surprise?”

The man raised his eyes. Hanging from the ceiling was an exquisitely crafted cage, filled with a mess of straw. Something was wriggling inside, and after a moment, a pair of fierce eyes peered out.

Ye Yunxi’s eyes lit up, and she quickly stepped forward.

Inside the cage was a young eagle!!

No, to be precise, it was a golden eagle!

Golden eagles belong to the Accipitridae family. Adult birds have an average wingspan of over two meters and can reach a body length of one meter—they are renowned aerial raptors!

There have been rumors of such golden eagles successively killing 14 wolves. Though the truth of these tales is uncertain, it’s a fact that some northern nomadic tribes tame golden eagles to protect their flocks from wolf packs.

The benefit of taming an eagle like this is that, within a hundred-mile radius, there would be no more worries about predators like wolves, tigers, or leopards!!

This was indeed a huge surprise!

However, this golden eagle was still young, its feathers clearly just fully grown. It had likely been brought here not long after leaving the nest.

Even so, nothing could hide the untamed wildness in the eagle’s eyes.

The king of the skies in the cage seemed to still be perched high in its cliffside nest, looking down upon the humble world and the ant-like humans!

“This is truly a surprise!”

Ye Yunxi couldn’t help but voice her admiration. The quality of an eagle is judged by its ferocity, and this one, though just learning to fly, already radiated killing intent—it could be described as extremely vicious.

While hawks are also raptors, in the presence of a two-meter-wingspan eagle, they’d have to tuck their tails and behave!

The more she looked, the more Ye Yunxi found herself liking it.

In the secret forces, many people enjoyed taming pets. Eagles and hawks were common, and some even raised lions, tigers, or leopards. But none compared to birds—they were easier to smuggle past customs and more practical for carrying out missions.

“It’s yours, but…”Di Junxie walked to the edge of the cage. Before he could do anything, the young eagle suddenly lunged forward. If not for the cage blocking its sharp claws, Di Junxie’s peerlessly handsome face would likely have been turned into a sieve.

So damn fierce!
