This Is My Primitive Tribe-Chapter 117 - 101: Young Bird Tang Yuan

The Hunting Team pressed on, carrying the Giant Horned Beast. Having captured such a massive creature, everyone felt elated, chatting excitedly about how much could be made from the beast’s horns, hide, and bones.

Jiang Xuan was also in high spirits, for he truly felt his immense power now, a guarantee for survival.

"Leader, there’s a bird up ahead. It can’t fly, and it’s huge!"

Just then, a Warrior scouting ahead came rushing back, excitement all over his face.

"Can’t fly? Take me to see it."

Jiang Xuan followed the Warrior, running swiftly forward.

In the Primitive Jungle, there are all kinds of birds; some can fly, some cannot.

Flying birds are more difficult to catch, but non-flying ones, like the plump Unihorn Bird, make excellent hunting targets for the Vine Tribe.

Having already hunted a Giant Horned Beast, another large non-flying bird would make everyone even happier.

Jiang Xuan moved quickly through the jungle’s varied terrain, his feet occasionally stepping on the massive moss-covered vines and fallen trees without making much noise.

The Warriors of the Hunting Team did the same, and apart from those carrying the prey, everyone appeared to advance lightly.

This was inherent for Hunters as too much noise would scare the prey away.

Soon, they arrived at the foot of a tall mountain and saw a peculiar-looking large bird.

This bird stood over half a man’s height, extremely plump. Based on Jiang Xuan’s extensive hunting experience, he estimated the bird’s weight to be at least seventy to eighty pounds, more than twice the size of a Unihorn Bird.

"Strange, I’ve never seen such a non-flying bird before?"

Jiang Xuan stared at the large bird under the tree, finding it odd.

It was excessively plump, or rather, fat. Its eyes were large, but unlike those of Fierce Birds, they appeared somewhat doe-eyed, and its movements were slow.

The Vine Tribe Warrior, who was scouting, judged it to be a Fierce Bird because of its hawk-like beak and strong, sharp claws, and didn’t dare to act alone.

Jiang Xuan, relying on his strength, approached with a Bone Spear after sensing something unusual about the large bird.

As Jiang Xuan approached, the bird spread its wings, issuing a menacing call at him.

"A fledgling?"

Jiang Xuan was startled to discover that the bird’s wings were fluffy, not covered in the robust feathers typical of adult birds.

Moreover, its call wasn’t sharp at all; rather, it sounded quite immature.

"What kind of bird species is this? How can even the fledglings be bigger than other adult birds?"

Jiang Xuan found it incredible; what would its size be if it were an adult?

The first thought that crossed Jiang Xuan’s mind was the Old Witch’s giant black eagle.

That giant eagle had a wingspan of over twenty meters, terrifyingly large, preying on all kinds of fierce and strong beasts.

Secondly, there were the Black Teeth Tribe’s Black-toothed Birds, with wingspans of over ten meters. Although not as large as the giant eagle, their endurance was excellent, capable of long-distance flights and strong in attack.

Could this rotund fledgling be another type of giant bird?

Jiang Xuan’s heart raced; he longed for a large bird that could take him across the world, just like the Old Witch or the Black Teeth Tribe’s traveling teams.

The Vine Tribe currently had Giant Dragonflies, but they lived short lives and were difficult to form bonds with, let alone communicate.

However, large birds typically lived long lives and were quite intelligent, capable of understanding simple words and commands over time.

Thinking of this, Jiang Xuan’s eyes gleamed as he stared at the large fledgling, frightening it into retreating repeatedly.

"Eee...Eee..."

The fledgling maintained its wings open, making itself appear larger.

During confrontations, animals use various methods to seem taller and more menacing, hoping to scare off their opponents.

However, knowing it was just a fledgling with little attack power, Jiang Xuan ignored its actions and charged at it.

Seeing its threats were ineffective, the fledgling turned to flee but, being too plump and inexperienced in running, couldn’t move quickly.

In no time, Jiang Xuan caught up with the fledgling, pinned it down, and tied its claws, preventing further escape.

"Eee...Eee..."

The fledgling cried loudly, but it was futile; its mother was clearly not around.

Jiang Xuan relaxed, previously fearing that the fledgling’s cries would attract a bird as large as the giant eagle, forcing them to flee in panic.

"Bring a vine net here!" Jiang Xuan shouted to the Hunting Team Warriors who had caught up.

One of the Warriors, responsible for carrying the vine net, quickly took one from his back, and with Jiang Xuan, netted the fledgling.

Jiang Xuan tried lifting it but found the fledgling too large to carry, so he found a pole, hung the vine net from it, and had two Warriors carry it.

Gou Teng approached Jiang Xuan and looked at the still calling fledgling, saying, "Leader, are you planning to bring it back for taming?"

Jiang Xuan replied, "That’s right. This is a fledgling; we’ll take it back and see if we can rear it."

"A fledgling?"

Gou Teng thought he misheard, staring in disbelief at the massive bird in the vine net, saying, "Such a large fledgling is really rare."
