She splashed a bowl of water at the black eagle’s nose.
But it was already too late. The powder had taken effect and the black eagle was rubbing its nose with its wings.
It was too ticklish.
Xia Muqing felt a little helpless. She took out a stalk of shiny green grass from her bag and crushed it before putting it on the black eagle’s nose.
That was the itching powder she made when she was bored.
Unexpectedly, it was used on the black eagle.
“Sister, I’m itching.”
The black eagle whined aggrievedly, and its eyes had turned red.
Xia Muqing glared at the black eagle. “Let’s see if you still dare to be so curious.”
The black eagle surveyed the various bottles on the ground.
It was no longer as curious as before and took a step back in fear.
Xia Muqing was relieved to see that the black eagle had learned its lesson.
Fortunately, it was the itching powder this time. If it were any other lethal poison, the consequences would be terrible.
After putting away all the bottles, Xia Muqing led the black eagle out of the mountains.
Just as she reached the periphery, she saw a group of people running over in a panic.
Xia Muqing noticed that it was someone familiar.
Wasn’t that the unruly princess she met when she was about to enter the mountains?
Huangfu You was originally dressed in luxurious clothing, but now she looked disheveled and dirty.
If Xia Muqing hadn’t taken a closer look, she wouldn’t have recognized her.
Huangfu You rushed in Xia Muqing’s direction with a fright written all over her face. A few guards followed her.
This was the first time the black eagle had seen so many people and it approached them curiously.
Huangfu You, who was fleeing for her life, turned around and saw an enlarged eagle head.
“Ah!”
Huangfu You screamed and collapsed on the ground.
When the guards following her recognized that it was an Azure Cloud Eagle, they were also shocked and drew their swords to protect Huangfu You.
The black eagle, who was taken aback by Huangfu You, also let out a sharp cry.
Huangfu You and the others became even more nervous, and the atmosphere gradually became solemn.
Slap!
They saw the black eagle being slapped on its head. Huangfu You and the others were stunned. Who was so bold?
Xia Muqing walked out from behind the black eagle.
Without the black eagle’s huge body to cover her, Huangfu You could finally see Xia Muqing’s face clearly.

She pointed at her and stammered, “You, you, you are…”
Because she was too nervous, she couldn’t complete her sentence.
Xia Muqing smiled and apologized. “I’m sorry, my pet has frightened you guys.”
After saying that, she turned around and chided the black eagle. “Why are you screaming? You scared them.”
The black eagle replied with grievance. “When that woman shouted just now, my wings were touched by their swords.”
As it spoke, it even spread its wings for Xia Muqing to see its wound.
The corners of Xia Muqing’s mouth twitched. She was speechless when she saw that the black eagle didn’t even have a scratch on its wings.
These days, she had also completely understood the black eagle’s personality.
It may look mighty and domineering, but in reality, it was just a delicate little princess who couldn’t be touched.

It would make a huge fuss over a minor wound.
Xia Muqing often thought that the black eagle’s parents agreed to let it go with her, because they were tired of it.

Huangfu You and the others couldn’t understand the exchange between Xia Muqing and the black eagle.
They could only see the black eagle screeching a few times before flapping its wings.
The reason why the Azure Cloud Eagles were so famous was because of their powerful wings.
The humans immediately gathered together nervously, and tried their best to minimize their presence.
When Xia Muqing noticed them, she apologized even more apologetically.
Another slap landed on the black eagle’s head, forcing it to move further away.
The black eagle rubbed its head and walked away, feeling bored and wronged.
Huangfu You and the others were dumbfounded when they saw how obedient the black eagle was.
What did Xia Muqing just say?
That eagle was her pet!
The Azure Cloud Eagle was her pet!
This time, the way they looked at Xia Muqing changed.
