Subduing the Lion King! 'Ex-Husband' and 'Ex-Wife' Meet in Different Places!

Chapter 30: Subduing the Lion King! 'Ex-Husband' and 'Ex-Wife' Meet Far from Home!

Deep within the Monster Mountain Range.

After Gu Fei unreservedly unleashed his aura, the previously chaotic and arrogant low-rank magical beasts instantly fell silent.

Even the Amethyst Winged Lion King's body froze for a moment.

Raising the tip of his foot slightly, Gu Fei took a few light steps forward. Though he looked as leisurely as if taking a stroll, the moment a sharp sound of breaking air rang out, he instantly appeared before the Amethyst Winged Lion King.

Even the Amethyst Winged Lion King failed to react to that utterly terrifying speed.

Standing before him, Gu Fei was as tiny as an ant, yet the Amethyst Winged Lion King sensed an intensely dangerous presence from him.

It was the long-forgotten scent of death.

A terrifying threat he had never felt again after becoming the ruler of this mountain range.

The Amethyst Winged Lion King felt fear. Emotion Value +50

The sensation of his heart racing made the Lion King's scalp tingle.

With an angry roar, he instinctively extended his massive claw and slapped it toward Gu Fei.

The Amethyst Winged Lion King held nothing back. It was a full-force strike, because his instincts told him that if he did not use all his strength—if he dared underestimate Gu Fei in the slightest—he would undoubtedly die.

The Lion King's sudden strike made Yun Yun's expression change.

Although she could sense Gu Fei's power, compared to the Lion King's enormous body, Gu Fei appeared far too small and frail.

Yun Yun felt nervous and worried. Emotion Value +100

"Will he be alright if that kind of blow hits him?"

However, in the next instant, that massive claw, heavy enough to crush mountains, abruptly stopped in midair as though it had been slammed on the brakes. It could no longer press down even an inch.

At the same time, an intense sound of metal clashing rang out in the sky.

The sound was ear-piercing, and the immense energy erupting at its center caused the nearby low-rank magical beasts below to cough up blood.

Yun Yun stared without even blinking.

Only after narrowing her eyes did she realize that Gu Fei had extended one hand.

That hand, compared to the giant claw, was like an ant beside an elephant's foot—yet it had blocked the descending claw.

Yun Yun felt shocked. Emotion Value +100

"How is that possible?"

Yun Yun cried out in shock.

Her seal had almost completely been lifted, and she had long been able to sense the fluctuations of energy in the outside world.

The reason she was so shocked was that she could sense that Gu Fei, one of the two combatants, had not used any Dou Qi at all!

He had merely extended one hand and used nothing but his physical strength to forcibly block a full-force blow from a Rank 6 Magical Beast!

And this was no ordinary Rank 6 Magical Beast!

The moment his attack was effortlessly caught by Gu Fei, the Amethyst Winged Lion King felt a sharp pain shoot through his claw.

The Amethyst Winged Lion King felt fear. Emotion Value +50

He instinctively pulled his claw back at once, fear rising in his heart.

The Amethyst Winged Lion King was somewhat stronger than Yun Yun. As an intelligent magical beast, he was also quite knowledgeable.

Naturally, he could tell that Gu Fei had withstood that blow through physical strength alone.

Moreover, Gu Fei's expression remained calm, as though he still had plenty to spare.

A magical beast's greatest strength had never been its Dou Qi, but its formidable physical body.

In contrast, most humans' weakness lay in their fleshly bodies.

Yet now, the positions of human and magical beast had been completely reversed. Without using Dou Qi, Gu Fei had easily blocked his full-force strike.

The Amethyst Winged Lion King's fur stood on end, his pupils contracting sharply.

Just how terrifying was Gu Fei's physique?

Gu Fei shook his hand, feeling that this was utterly lacking in challenge.

He still remembered what the system panel had said: his physique was Level 78, equivalent to the physical strength of a late Rank 7 magical beast with Emperor-grade bloodline.

Once magical beasts reached the later stages of cultivation, every rank advancement was a qualitative leap.

The gap between Rank 6 and Rank 7 was already a chasm.

Not to mention the boost from Emperor-grade bloodline.

If Gu Fei got serious, he could easily crush the Amethyst Winged Lion King using physical strength alone!

It was not easy to encounter a magical beast that barely suited his tastes. Gu Fei decided to persuade him one last time; his patience was running out.

"Believe me. Becoming my mount will be the wisest decision of your life."

"In the future, breaking through to Rank 7, or even Rank 8, will be possible. At the very least, it will be better than remaining entrenched in this Monster Mountain Range forever."

The Amethyst Winged Lion King felt hesitant. Emotion Value +50

After intimidating the Amethyst Winged Lion King with his strength, Gu Fei understood well the principle of giving a date after a slap and laid out several conditions.

Then, seeing that the Amethyst Winged Lion King was still hesitating, Gu Fei smiled faintly and spoke again.

"Afterward, I'll give you a Transformation Pill."

With an absolutely effective combination of kindness and intimidation, coupled with the various potential Gu Fei had displayed, the Lion King finally wavered.

The Amethyst Winged Lion King felt indecisive. Emotion Value +50

Following such a future peerless powerhouse, even if only as a mount, did not seem shameful.

Moreover, Gu Fei had already given it ample face.

He had said this much already. If the Amethyst Winged Lion King still refused, it would likely face a deadly calamity today.

And the child in that cave dwelling would also be in danger.

"Greetings, Master!"

Thus, after weighing its options, the proud Amethyst Winged Lion King ultimately chose to lower its head and submit to Gu Fei.

"Very good!"

Seeing this, Gu Fei nodded with a smile.

Below, Yun Yun witnessed the entire scene with her own eyes.

Yun Yun felt astonished. Emotion Value +100

She was so shocked that she could not speak.

Gu Fei's strength repeatedly overturned her understanding, having long since far surpassed even her imagination.

Yun Yun could not help wondering whether such a monstrous genius truly existed.

In the sky, Gu Fei was still giving instructions to the Amethyst Winged Lion King.

"Since that is the case, make your preparations. Later, you will leave the Monster Mountain Range with me. As for your child, handle that yourself."

Afterward, he descended to the ground and came to Yun Yun's side.

Yun Yun felt embarrassed. Emotion Value +100

Yun Yun rarely felt so awkward. She had actually thought that such a powerhouse had merely been boasting.

At this moment, Yun Yun's attitude toward Gu Fei had quietly changed.

She no longer regarded him as the immature youth she had seen just moments ago. This was the natural reaction of the weak toward the strong.

At the same time, Yun Yun found it laughable that she had even offered to recommend Gu He to Gu Fei earlier.

Gu Fei smiled faintly and was about to tease this icy beauty, who rarely showed such emotion.

Suddenly, his brows drew together slightly as he looked east.

"Why has she come?"

Yun Yun looked in the direction of his gaze without understanding, remaining silent.

Gu Fei frowned, feeling somewhat irritated.

What exactly did those two want, coming here to disturb him?

Although Xun'er and Ling Ying had not deliberately revealed their auras, Gu Fei still sensed them approaching through his powerful soul perception.
