Saving the Beauty from the Ape Claw

After a long while, Xiao Tian slowly released Xun'er. Xun'er's face was flushed, and she leaned on Xiao Tian's shoulder, panting. Her eyes seemed to be shimmering with tears.

"Xun'er." Xiao Tian looked at Xun'er with eyes full of love and said softly.

"Brother Xiao... Xiao Tian Gege, please put me down."

Xun'er said to Xiao Tian with a shy expression.

Xiao Tian knew Xun'er was shy, so he gently put her down. The moment her feet touched the ground, her legs went weak, and Xiao Tian quickly caught her.

"Let me carry you back." Xiao Tian picked her up in a princess carry, walked up the stairs, and headed back to her room.

Xiao Tian gently placed her on the bed, kissed her forehead, and then prepared to leave.

"Xiao Tian Gege, Xun'er... Xun'er can help... you."

She had sensed something was wrong before.

Xiao Tian paused, looking at Xun'er in disbelief. He knew exactly what Xun'er meant by those words.

"You... you... didn't you have this idea before? Don't think I didn't know, hmph."

Xun'er's voice came out intermittently, her face flushed red like a red-hot iron, probably steaming if you put water on it, and her hands gripped the hem of her clothes tightly.

Upon hearing Xun'er's words, Xiao Tian was instantly wide awake, his eyes bulging like saucers.

"Xun'er, I'll leave it to you then."

Xiao Tianyi appeared in front of Xun'er in an instant and kissed her on the forehead.

Xun'er nestled directly in Xiao Tian's arms, nodded gently, and looked ashamed to be seen by anyone.

As the Dou Qi Shield was erected, a voice instructing came from inside the room; Xiao Tian was guiding Xun'er in her cultivation.

As time passed, quite some time went by, and lunchtime gradually arrived.

After instructing Xun'er on cultivation, Xiao Tian walked out of the room feeling refreshed. It was clear that today's guidance had been very fruitful. Although beginners inevitably stumbled along the way, under his guidance, their progress gradually became smoother and more fluid.

Through Xiao Tian's figure, one could vaguely see Xun'er had just finished lunch, wiping her mouth and occasionally coughing.

Xun'er watched Xiao Tian's departing figure, then covered her face: she never expected that the part she considered a burden could be like that.

No wonder Xiao Tian Gege likes Sister Ya Fei so much; he's really wicked, always tormenting people in these strange ways.

Xiao Tian stepped out of the pavilion and onto the street. He felt many eyes secretly watching him, and his brows furrowed slightly.

He unleashed his Golden Feather Sky Wings and soared into the sky, flying towards the deep mountains surrounding the Inner Academy.

"That scared me to death! When I saw Demon King Xiao frown, I thought he was going to give me a huge sinus."

"I'm scared too, help me up, I'm wet."

"Dude, why does your pee attract so many ants?"

Whispers arose from the corner, mostly from various factions who had come to monitor Pan Gate.

He was afraid that Xiao Tian would come knocking on his door one day, so he could prepare how to kneel down in advance.

Xiao Tian ignored those people and plunged straight into the deep mountains, intending to find some medicinal herbs, as well as the Earth Core Body Tempering Milk, and also practice refining Sixth Grade Pill.

Xiao Tian entered the deep mountains and forests, where the forest seemed to stretch endlessly before his eyes.

"This forest is indeed vast; no wonder Jia Nan Academy has been able to continuously harvest medicinal herbs from it since its establishment."

Xiao Tian plunged directly into the forest, flying slowly beneath the tall trees.

Xiao Tian continuously surveyed the forest, discovering many medicinal herbs along the way. However, these were all herbs used to refine low-level pills, so he didn't pick them. The best one he found was a Mystic Heart Fruit, which was needed to refine the Imperial Zenith Pill.

Xiao Tian searched for a long time but couldn't find the cave containing the Earth Core Body Tempering Milk.

Just as he was about to give up, Xiao Tian heard a deafening roar.

"Hmm? Like an ape's roar? Could it be that?"

Xiao Tian didn't have time to think, and followed the sound, transforming into a streak of light and flying over.

The view gradually opened up, and after flying out, we found ourselves in a Small Mountain Valley.

Xiao Tianyi spotted a massive white Giant Ape, about three or four zhang in size.

"It really is the Blood Demon Sky Ape. It seems this is the place where the Earth Core Body Tempering Milk is."

The white Giant Ape was running around, its long arms and two ape paws the size of an adult's head constantly pounding on the rocks blocking its path.

A pair of blood-red eyes, filled with rage, stood before it, and before it was a silver-haired, silver-skirted figure fleeing in a disheveled state.

"Hmm, isn't this Han Yue?"

Upon seeing this unique appearance and clothing style, Xiao Tian realized that there was only one person in the entire Inner Academy, and it was none other than Han Yue he had met in the Inner Academy before.

"It's still a long time before they besiege the Blood Demon Sky Ape. Judging from the current situation, Han Yue has probably just discovered the Earth Core Body Tempering Milk here."

As Han Yue ran, she fired ice spikes backward with her Ice Element Dou Qi, attempting to distract the Giant Ape.

However, the ice spikes of this magnitude did not cause much damage to the Giant Ape; they were directly crushed by its body.

The distance between them couldn't be widened no matter what they did; in fact, as their Dou Qi gradually depleted, the distance was constantly being narrowed.

Han Yue finally collapsed to the ground, her Dou Qi exhausted and her strength failing her. Watching the Giant Ape approaching her, Han Yue refused to give up. Instead, she stood up bravely and kept calculating and searching for a chance to escape.

But he found himself trapped with nowhere to run and no cover in sight.

She gathered the last of her Dou Qi in her hands, preparing for a desperate fight, but before she could use these Dou Technique to unleash her Dou Qi, a pair of huge claws had already reached for her.

It was the Blood Demon Sky Ape that had been chasing after them.

Han Yue watched the Ape Claw gradually approaching her, a bitter smile appearing on her lips. She slowly closed her eyes, which were filled with despair, her face etched with endless desolation.

"Little sister, I can no longer protect you. It's such a pity I'll never see you again."

Just at the critical moment, a white light with a golden hue flashed past like lightning.

Han Yue, who was originally under the giant claw, vanished without a trace. The giant claw slammed heavily into the ground, raising a huge cloud of smoke.

The white figure held Han Yue, hovering a hundred meters in the air. Looking down at the beautiful woman in his arms, whose face was pale with fear and whose body was trembling slightly, he saw her.

Han Yue waited quietly for death to come, but she felt no pain.

"Am I dead? Why don't I feel any pain at all?"

Han Yue's voice sounded confused, then she moved slightly and realized that she seemed to be being held.

She slowly opened her eyes, and what came into view was a handsome and otherworldly face reflected in the sunlight. When she saw this face clearly, Han Yue murmured to herself in disbelief.

"Xiao... Junior Xiao Tian?"

"Senior Han Yue, you're alright."

Xiao Tian's Golden Wings fluttered slowly, and he gradually landed on a large rock.

When Xiao Tian landed on the ground, Han Yue found herself being held in a princess carry. This was the first time she had ever been held in a man's arms, and a strange feeling welled up in her heart.

Han Yue's face instantly turned bright red. She shook her head slightly to banish these strange thoughts.

Xiao Tian gently placed Han Yue on the ground. She leaned against Xiao Tian as she stood, mainly because her legs were a little weak from being frightened earlier.

"Junior Xiao Tian, thank you for saving me." Han Yue looked up at Xiao Tian gratefully.

We'll discuss this later.

Xiao Tian gently pulled Han Yue behind him, his eyes fixed on the smoke ahead. As the smoke gradually dissipated, two red lights were revealed.

"Roar!!"

A tremendous roar came from within the smoke, and an extremely blurry figure with a red glow burst out from it, rushing towards Xiao Tian and his companion.
