This Punch Will Look Awesome!! [The Data's a Bit Bad, Please Keep Reading]

Without the Purple Flame's assistance, the Amethyst Winged Lion King's strength had dropped drastically, but dealing with Hai Bo Dong was still effortless.

"What, you can't beat it, so you're coming after me instead? Do you really think I'm that easy to bully?!" Hai Bo Dong was furious. This Amethyst Winged Lion King kept targeting him.

I am the mighty Ice Emperor, one of the Jia Ma Empire Top Ten Experts. How could I possibly...

"Young Master, save me!" Hai Bo Dong called out toward Xiao Chuan. This Amethyst Winged Lion King might be planning to seize him as a hostage.

The Amethyst Winged Lion King had gone mad. Ignoring his attacks, it lunged at him like a rabid dog.

"Lead it over here!"

Xiao Chuan sent Hai Bo Dong a voice transmission.

Hai Bo Dong accelerated and flew toward Xiao Chuan.

However, the Amethyst Winged Lion King was incredibly fast—so fast that it nearly caught Hai Bo Dong.

But Hai Bo Dong was no pushover either. He swiftly dodged and evaded the Amethyst Winged Lion King's claw.

"This is too much!!"

Hai Bo Dong felt that his life had truly been pathetic. He could not defeat Queen Medusa, and now he could not even defeat this tiny Amethyst Winged Lion King.

The Amethyst Winged Lion King sped up. This time, it would not let Hai Bo Dong go. It had to capture him.

Xiao Chuan no longer felt like the Dou Wang he had once been, but rather a formidable expert who inspired fear.

Seeing the Amethyst Winged Lion King charging at him, Hai Bo Dong's heart nearly turned cold. Then Xiao Chuan's voice suddenly sounded before him.

"Old Hai, watch closely. This punch of mine will look awesome!"

Hai Bo Dong saw that Xiao Chuan had already gathered his strength. He immediately sidestepped and moved behind Xiao Chuan.

The Amethyst Winged Lion King pounced head-on. When it saw Xiao Chuan standing before it, its massive body could no longer stop.

It could only charge forward!

"Baji Collapse!!"

This punch had no flashy Dou Qi effects, no dazzling skill name—only three simple words.

Yet when Xiao Chuan's fist struck the Amethyst Winged Lion King, powerful Dou Qi gathered around his knuckles and entered the beast's body.

Baji Collapse contained eight layers of force that erupted within the enemy's body. It specialized in breaking defenses, and its power became even greater once mastered.

Xiao Chuan's Baji Collapse had already reached the Heaven Tier Middle level, but he did not have the strength to unleash a Heaven Tier Baji Collapse.

Thus, he could only suppress its power. This punch was already a high-level Di Tier Baji Collapse.

Moreover, Baji Collapse itself contained eight layers of force. So although it only possessed the power of a high-level Di Tier technique, it was already incomparably close to the might of the Heaven Tier.

This punch!

Once again severely wounded the Amethyst Winged Lion King, whose injuries had only just recovered!!

And its injuries were even worse than before!

Hai Bo Dong watched the Amethyst Winged Lion King fall like a kite with a snapped string. Stunned, he looked at Xiao Chuan, then at the Amethyst Winged Lion King that had crashed to the ground.

"Old Hai, was that punch awesome?" Xiao Chuan curled his lips into a faint smile and turned toward Hai Bo Dong.

"Fucking awesome!!" Hai Bo Dong gave him a thumbs-up. He had learned that phrase from Xiao Chuan.

"Keep it low-key, keep it low-key."

Xiao Chuan thoroughly enjoyed the moment. "Come on, let's go see how the Amethyst Winged Lion King is doing."

The Amethyst Winged Lion King was badly injured. It could not even flee now and could only lie on the ground like a lamb awaiting slaughter.

"Amethyst Winged Lion King, you have two choices. First—"

Before Xiao Chuan could finish, the Amethyst Winged Lion King immediately replied, "I choose the first!"

"The first? You choose death?" Xiao Chuan asked.

"..."

The Amethyst Winged Lion King fell silent. "Then I choose the second!"

Who made the first choice death? Shouldn't it have been submission?

This human really did not play by the rules!

"The second is death too..."

"???"

The Amethyst Winged Lion King's eyes widened. You never intended to let me live, did you?

"I was just joking." Xiao Chuan smiled. "I recall you said before that you would never submit."

"I did say that." The Amethyst Winged Lion King explained, "But I was young and hot-blooded then. A dog won't be a mount, but I will!"

Hai Bo Dong said, "Amethyst Winged Lion King, if you want to take human form, then I think you've made the right choice."

The Amethyst Winged Lion King looked at Hai Bo Dong, not understanding what he meant.

Hai Bo Dong continued, "I'll tell you plainly: Young Master is now a Tier 6 Alchemist. How long do you think it will take him to become a Tier 7 Alchemist?"

Upon hearing this, the Amethyst Winged Lion King finally understood what Hai Bo Dong meant. This Young People... was also a Tier 6 Alchemist?

If that were true, then at most three years later, he would become a Tier 7 Alchemist. Wouldn't that mean its Humanoid Transformation Pill was as good as secured?

"Honestly, if Young Master did not lack a mount, do you really think he would take an interest in you?"

Hai Bo Dong held his head high. "Guess what other magical beast Young Master has by his side?"

"Another magical beast?"

The Amethyst Winged Lion King looked at Xiao Chuan and saw a Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python appear in his hand.

"Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python!!"

"You know Queen Medusa of the Snake-Person Tribe, right?" Hai Bo Dong looked at the Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python. "It evolved from Queen Medusa. Even Queen Medusa has submitted to my Young Master. Do you think you'd be losing out by submitting?"

The Amethyst Winged Lion King had not expected Xiao Chuan to possess such deep backing. That was a Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python, with a bloodline countless times stronger than its own.

"There's one more thing." Hai Bo Dong said meaningfully, "Queen Medusa was able to evolve into a Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python because of my Young Master."

He felt that this was not wrong. If Xiao Chuan had not used Heavenly Flames to lure Queen Medusa over, she could not possibly have evolved into a Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python.

The sleeping Queen Medusa had already awakened upon noticing the commotion, but Hai Bo Dong's words made her extremely displeased.

"So this was your scheme. Hai Bo Dong, just you wait!" Queen Medusa was furious.

"Achoo!!" Hai Bo Dong suddenly sneezed. "I'm a mighty Dou Emperor. How did I catch a cold?"

"Master!"

After hearing all that, how could the Amethyst Winged Lion King hesitate any longer? It called out the word "Master" with exceptional warmth, without the slightest awkwardness.

"Don't call me Master. Just call me Young Master, like Old Hai does." Xiao Chuan found it awkward. It still felt better when women called him Master.

The Amethyst Winged Lion King was moved, as though it had found a wise master. He had not treated it like a maid!

"Young Master, from now on, I am willing to climb mountains of blades and plunge into seas of fire for you, without hesitation!"

"I'll also make you a promise. As long as you're willing to work hard, I'll find a way to get you a Humanoid Transformation Pill." After saying that, Xiao Chuan recalled his boss from his previous life. That person seemed to have sold him the same kind of empty promise.

"Thank you, Young Master!!"

The Amethyst Winged Lion King said gratefully.

"Take this healing pill. It can help you recover from your injuries." Xiao Chuan tossed the pill into the Amethyst Winged Lion King's mouth.

After refining the pill, the Amethyst Winged Lion King's injuries improved, and it could already fly through the air.

"Go bring your child and return to the Xiao Clan with me." Xiao Chuan instructed, "Your son seemed quite fond of the idea of you becoming my mount. When he saw me arrive, he even specifically told us that you were in the cave."

The Amethyst Winged Lion King flew into a rage, leaping into the air and rushing toward the cave.

Not long afterward, the cub's miserable cries echoed throughout the forest. Xiao Chuan and Hai Bo Dong exchanged smiles.
