The black eagle’s huge body was nailed to the wall by two steel nails. The blood that flowed out of its wounds had dyed its entire body red.
Xia Muqing didn’t dare to touch it and she whispered into its ear, “Black eagle, black eagle.”
The black eagle didn’t react at all, and it lowered its head with its eyes closed.
Xia Muqing gave up and checked its wounds instead. She took out a silver needle and inserted it into his body to stop the bleeding.
She couldn’t make any drastic move yet. If Flying Bird came to check on her, she would be exposed.
Xia Muqing had to control her treatment well. She couldn’t let anyone notice her during the process.
As the silver needles entered its body, the black eagle was stimulated and it moved slightly.
Xia Muqing was delighted and shouted again, “Black eagle?”
The black eagle wanted to flap its wings, but its wings were fixed and it couldn’t move at all. Its efforts only caused the blood that had just stopped to flow again.
Xia Muqing quickly said, “Stop moving.”
However, the black eagle didn’t listen to her. It continued to struggle and make low sounds with anger and helplessness.
Xia Muqing frowned. What was going on?
She reached out to comfort him. The black eagle struggled even more and looked in her direction.
Seeing that the black eagle had opened its eyes, Xia Muqing clenched her fists tightly. She wished she could fight those people right now.
The Azure Cloud Eagles had always been known for their eyesight and speed. These people had actually ruined its eyes!
The black eagle’s eyes were empty, and its eyeballs had been dug out by someone.
Xia Muqing held back her tears and gently touched its eyes.
The black eagle seemed to have recalled a bad experience and shook its head even more violently.
Xia Muqing quickly comforted him. After a while, she realized that something was wrong. Its ears had also been pierced by a metal object.
Xia Muqing suppressed her rage. Seeing that the black eagle’s constant struggle had worsened its injuries, she could only use silver needles to seal its consciousness. The silver needles entered its neck and the black eagle fainted.
As expected, Flying Bird was worried and came back to take a look.
When she saw that the black eagle still hadn’t woken up, she frowned and asked, “Has this beast never woken up?”
Xia Muqing nodded and said, “Yes.”
Flying Bird’s frown deepened. She circled the black eagle twice and whipped it. The black eagle shook but it didn’t wake up.
Xia Muqing guessed her meaning and said, “Palace Mistress, this Azure Cloud Eagle looks like it’s about to die. If it’s still useful, let’s treat it first.”
Her words made Flying Bird look at her instantly.
Xia Muqing was a little nervous. She was feeling fine but she was worried that the black eagle would be harmed if she was exposed. However, she remained composed as she looked at the eagle.
Flying Bird suddenly asked, “You know medicine?”
Xia Muqing quickly nodded and said, “A little.”
Flying bird scrutinized Xia Muqing. After a while, she smiled and said, “That’s great. I’ll leave this beast to you then.”
She waved her hand, and a few strong women entered the secret room. They untied the black eagle and carried it out together.
Xia Muqing and Flying Bird followed them.
Fei Niao gazed at Xia Muqing’s back and said, “Go and investigate her.”
A figure suddenly appeared and left after nodding.
The Goddess Clan didn’t have a physician. Where did this woman come from?
Xia Muqing followed the women in front of her into a room and they threw the black eagle onto the ground.
“I need gauze and water,” Xia Muqing said calmly.
The women glanced at each other and walked out together, leaving one guard at the door. The others went to get what she needed.
Xia Muqing knew that she had attracted the attention of Flying Bird, but that wasn’t important anymore. What she had to do was to bring the black eagle out of the dark room.
