Call Me Big Brother

The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King snapped back to his senses in terror. Facing the Black and White Great Hand that seemed capable of suppressing everything, the once-arrogant Purple Crystal Winged Lion King actually came to a halt in midair, wearing an expression on the verge of tears.

"Stop fighting, stop fighting! I surrender!!"

The Black and White Great Hand promptly dissipated, and at some point, a figure had already landed in front of Yun Yun.

"I'm telling you, it's only been a while since I beat you up. Is your skin itching again?" Lin Mu asked the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King.

"So it really was you!"

The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King's body trembled. He was practically about to cry.

What kind of monster was this guy in front of him?!

Last time, he had used the Kun Peng Method, and this time, he had unleashed that terrifying move. He was the mighty Purple Crystal Winged Lion King, the overlord of the Monster Beast Mountain Range. Just how had he offended this guy?!

"Do me a favor. Stop fighting."

Lin Mu smiled. He seemed to be offering kind advice, yet no matter how the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King listened, he could hear the threat in his tone. How could he dare refuse? Yun Yun's strength was comparable to his own, so he had the confidence to fight her to the death.

But before Lin Mu, he could not act imposing at all.

If he had taken that attack just now, he probably really would have fallen here today...

"Thank you for lending a hand, sir."

Because of Lin Mu's intervention, Yun Yun had only suffered a partial energy seal. Though her strength had declined, she was still at the level of a one-star Dou Wang and could barely maintain her Dou Qi Wings to fly.

Yun Yun studied Lin Mu's profile and sighed inwardly. Such a young boy, yet he already possesses power at the Dou Emperor level... When did the Jia Ma Empire produce such a genius?

"Mesmerized by me?"

Lin Mu's words brought Yun Yun back from her daze. She then shifted her gaze away somewhat awkwardly.

Meanwhile, not far away, Yao Lao's face was filled with shock.

"That just now... what kind of Dou Technique was that?! It actually caused such a terrifying phenomenon in heaven and earth. Earth-tier...? No, even ordinary Earth-tier Dou Techniques could not possibly create such a phenomenon!"

Yao Lao could not suppress the shock in his heart. Seeing Yao Lao, who rarely changed expression over anything, reveal such a look, Xiao Yan naturally asked curiously.

"Teacher, what kind of Dou Technique did Lin Mu use just now?"

Yao Lao slowly shook his head. "I don't know. Perhaps it was among the highest grades of Earth-tier techniques, or perhaps it was... the legendary Heaven-tier..."

That scene, which stirred the energy of heaven and earth into turmoil and made even the sky seem to tremble, left even him, a former Dou Venerate with vast experience and sharp insight, deeply shocked.

The appearance of such a Dou Technique was not particularly rare.

But for such a Dou Technique to be in the hands of a mere Dou Emperor brat was extremely strange.

"With his strength, how could he possibly master such a terrifying Dou Technique?"

The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King cursed his bad luck inwardly. Why had he run into Lin Mu, this cursed star, again? Just as he was about to return to his nest, he saw Lin Mu land in front of him.

"What do you want? Don't tell me you really intend to kill me completely?! This King warns you, even if I am no match for you, if you want to kill me, you'd better be prepared to suffer a setback!"

The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King glared furiously. No matter what, he was a Sixth-tier Magical Beast. If Lin Mu kept pressing him, he truly would risk his life!

"If I wanted to kill you, you'd already be dead."

Lin Mu rolled his eyes. "I need you to do me a favor."

"A favor? Impossible. Who do you think I am? I may not be able to beat you, but that doesn't mean you can order me around—"

Before the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King could finish, Lin Mu walked over with a smile. Golden Light flickered from his right hand, clearly forming the Kun Peng Method, while black-and-white light flashed from his left hand, as though he intended to use the Black and White Great Hand again...

"Uh, what favor? I'm always happy to help."

The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King smiled.

"..."

Xiao Yan's mouth twitched several times from afar. "This big lion really has no principles..."

"Enough. Go continue cultivating. Their level is still far too distant for you."

Yao Lao smacked Xiao Yan on the head.

"He only seems to have the strength of a four-star Dou Emperor, yet he can unleash such a terrifying Dou Technique. No wonder the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King fears him so much."

Yun Yun also landed behind Lin Mu. Her face was somewhat pale. The battle just now had drained her considerably, not to mention that she had been struck by the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King's seal.

"It's simple. Have your Magical Beast underlings search the Monster Beast Mountain Range for a Fire Seed."

Lin Mu said.

"A Fire Seed?" The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King frowned. Such an abstract thing—where was he supposed to find one?!

"You have an objection?" The phantom of Kun Peng flickered faintly in Lin Mu's hand.

"Of course not, of course not."

The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King threw back his head and roared. He was venting his dissatisfaction on one hand and summoning his underlings on the other. Soon, several Magical Beasts rushed out from the distant forest and gathered together.

"I've already ordered them to search the Monster Beast Mountain Range for unusual objects. If there is any news, they will notify me."

The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King said to Lin Mu.

"Good job. As your big brother, I'm very satisfied." Lin Mu nodded approvingly.

"Big brother?"

"Yep!"

Lin Mu burst into laughter, completely ignoring the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King behind him, whose face had twisted with fury.

"May I ask where you studied, sir, so that I may repay you for saving my life in the future?" Yun Yun stepped forward and cupped her fists. In her view, for Lin Mu to possess such strength at his age, there had to be a powerful force behind him.

Or perhaps he had inherited some legacy at a young age.

"I'm just an independent cultivator. Just call me Lin Mu."

Yun Yun continued, "My name is Yun Zhi. I came here for the Purple Spirit Crystal."

"Your aura is extremely unstable, and you are already very weak. You should find a place to recover as soon as possible," Lin Mu said to Yun Yun.

Not far away, the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King snorted coldly at Yun Yun. "Human, you should know just how precious the Purple Spirit Crystal is. If you cannot produce what I want, then leave."

"For his sake, I won't kill you."

The "him" the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King referred to was naturally Lin Mu.

Yun Yun snorted as well. "Do you really think you can kill me?"

The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King was just about to flare up, but then he remembered that Lin Mu was nearby. He simply turned around and returned to his nest to recover. As for Yun Yun, although her strength remained at the one-star Dou Wang level, she could not exert that power at all. It was merely an empty appearance.

That was precisely the domineering aspect of the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King's seal.
