"Ding! Accompanying Purple Crystal Source has been successfully plundered. Please check your inventory."
After slipping out of the cave with some difficulty, Chen Mo heard the system prompt ring out in his mind.
With a thought, he noticed a little red dot in the system inventory. Upon opening it, he found that besides the Aura Concealment Technique and three Healing Talismans, the items tab also contained four bottles of Accompanying Purple Crystal Source.
"Reliable."
Just as Chen Mo was about to leave this dangerous place, an idea suddenly came to him.
A transmigrator who did not cause trouble for the protagonist was not a qualified transmigrator.
Meanwhile, Xiao Yan stared at the stone platform, having truly squeezed it dry of every last drop of Purple Crystal Source. Just as he was about to put the two small Jade Bottles containing the Purple Crystal Source into his Storage Ring—
He suddenly discovered that the two small Jade Bottles were miraculously empty.
"Damn it, where did my Accompanying Purple Crystal Source go?"
"Teacher, the Accompanying Purple Crystal Source is gone."
"..."
ROAR!
ROAR!
BANG!
Just as Xiao Yan panicked over the miraculous disappearance of the Accompanying Purple Crystal Source, the beast roars and ensuing fight outside made Elder Ya's expression change.
"Not good. Someone is provoking the guards at the cave entrance!"
"Teacher, it must be him." At Elder Ya's reminder, Xiao Yan looked at the dust faintly falling from above the chamber and thought of Chen Mo, who had just left. His eyes blazed with fury.
Elder Ya's expression was equally grim. He had not expected to stumble in this tiny Beast Mountain Range, but having weathered countless storms, he quickly calmed down and urged, "Let's go. Retreat quickly, or that big fellow will block the cave entrance."
"Mm."
As though even Elder Ya sensed the danger, after darting out of the passage, he directly possessed Xiao Yan and continued rushing tirelessly toward the cave exit.
Not long after he darted out of the passage, an angry lion's roar sounded from ahead.
The Little Purple Crystal Winged Lion King was in a miserable state, its expression full of rage.
It had never expected that during the brief time it took to use the toilet, intruders would sneak into its lair one after another.
Worse still, if it had not dodged quickly just now, that woman would have cut it down with a single stroke.
Since it could do nothing to that woman, it would at least tear a chunk of flesh from this one.
However, Xiao Yan, possessed by Elder Ya, was even harder to deal with than Yun Yun. The moment it approached, a massive black blade slammed heavily into its body, sending its huge frame crashing into the cave wall.
"Whimper!" After taking the heavy blow, the Little Purple Crystal Winged Lion King's head buzzed, while cracks spread across the cave wall behind it.
"Don't get distracted. Go quickly, that big fellow is coming." The instant the former was sent flying, the latter did not pause in the slightest and continued sprinting toward the cave exit.
They had just flown out of the cave.
But they were still one step too slow. When the Lion King, who had failed to catch Chen Mo and the other, returned and discovered there were still people in its home—especially when its son staggered out after it, clearly badly injured—its mood was easy to imagine.
"Detestable humans, I will not spare you today!"
A purple radiance even more massive than the previous two roared from the Lion King's mouth. The fury piled up three times over poured down heavily upon Xiao Yan.
Whether or not he was with that woman, someone had to bear the beating.
A great battle was on the verge of erupting.
In a concealed forest outside the mountain range, Yun Yun could still sense that enormous energy fluctuation despite the great distance.
The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King was utterly enraged.
"What exactly happened? Why is the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King so furious?" Even Yun Yun, who had provoked it twice in succession, had never experienced such rage.
As she spoke, Yun Yun turned and crouched down. Before her, Chen Mo lay half-reclined against a large tree, still animatedly recounting his heroic exploits while proudly waving the Purple Spirit Crystal in his hand.
Yun Yun's gaze lowered slightly to the rather gruesome wound on Chen Mo's chest, and her heart could not help but ache. With a thought, she took out several bottles and jars from her Storage Ring one after another.
She opened a small bottle, poured a little pale green liquid onto her fingertip, and carefully applied it to Chen Mo's wound. As she did so, she said, "You had already gotten out safely. Why did you provoke that guard magical beast?"
Chen Mo's smug words came to an abrupt halt. It was the first time he had seen Yun Yun this gentle. Then he laughed heartily. "Blame that kid for being unlucky."
Thinking of Xiao Yan suffering under his scheme made Chen Mo exceedingly happy.
"That kid?"
"Mm. Before I arrived, someone had already gotten there first."
"Someone else? How many?"
"Two, I suppose. Hiss." Chen Mo winced in pain. After a moment's thought, he still revealed Xiao Yan's name.
"Xiao Yan?" Yun Yun froze slightly. Could it be that Xiao Yan?
"Mm, he said he was from Wutan City. You know him?" Chen Mo deliberately asked, closely watching her expression.
Yun Yun hesitated for a moment, then poured some medicinal powder from another bottle and sprinkled it over Chen Mo's wound. Only after seeing that it had stopped bleeding did she sigh. "There are some things you were bound to learn sooner or later. I do not intend to hide them from you anymore."
Chen Mo seemed to know what she was about to say and listened quietly.
"Didn't I tell you before that once we arrived at the Misty Cloud Sect, I would introduce you to a girl of comparable talent?" Yun Yun slowly rose to her feet, then stood with her back to Chen Mo. "Her name is Nalan Yanran. She was once Xiao Yan's fiancée."
"Ah!" Chen Mo feigned surprise.
Yun Yun continued, "And my name is not Yun Zhi. I am Yun Yun, the Sect Master of the Misty Cloud Sect."
"Ah!" Chen Mo acted surprised again, as though he were hearing it for the first time.
"I'm sorry. I deceived you, but I... ah!" Yun Yun suddenly turned around, intending to explain herself to Chen Mo, only to find that he had somehow appeared behind her. Her body abruptly fell into his embrace.
"Hiss, that hurts." Two soft mounds happened to press against Chen Mo's wound, making him wince in pain. Before he could savor the feeling, she hurriedly pushed him away.
"Cough." Chen Mo coughed dryly and smiled. "Then should I call you Sect Master Yun Yun now, or Yun Zhi?"
"You don't blame me?" At some point, Yun Yun had begun to care about Chen Mo's opinion of her.
"I understand. We had only just met, after all, so there was no need to reveal your real name." To keep Yun Yun from misunderstanding, Chen Mo added, "But I did not hide anything. My name really is Chen Mo."
Yun Yun lightly bit her red lips with pearly teeth. The sincerity in the young man's eyes left her somewhat at a loss, and her gaze kept darting away. For a moment, both fell silent.
Chen Mo was the first to break the silence. He took Yun Yun's jade-like hand. He swore that he absolutely was not trying to take advantage of her—he was merely placing the Purple Spirit Crystal in her hand.
"The teacher you meant to introduce was yourself, wasn't it?" Chen Mo said with a faint smile.
A blush appeared on Yun Yun's pretty face. Then her Willow eyebrows rose as she put on a stern expression. "What? You're unwilling?"
"I am willing, but can I not call you Teacher? Can I just call you by your name? Or Sister Yun Yun."
"Why?"
"Because that is my condition."
"Fine, but only in private."
"Sister Yun Yun."
