Xiao Xuan Takes Action! Slaying a Sixth-Tier Magical Beast

Yun Yun's expression changed instantly.

"Watch out."

As soon as she spoke, several enormous figures dove down from the sky.

Six magical beasts appeared before them.

Two Sixth-Tier Magical Beasts and four Fifth-Tier Magical Beasts.

At their head was a pitch-black giant ape, three zhang tall, with fur standing upright like steel needles.

Its scarlet eyes stared at the group.

A Sixth-Tier Magical Beast—the Black Demon Ape.

It was equivalent to a human Dou Emperor-level expert.

Beside it stood a slightly smaller silver giant wolf, covered in silvery-white fur, its eyes gleaming with cold killing intent.

A Sixth-Tier Magical Beast—the Silver Moon Wolf King.

The other four Fifth-Tier Magical Beasts were two Crimson Flame Tigers and two Frost Pythons, equivalent to human Dou Wang-level experts.

The Black Demon Ape's gaze swept across the group before finally settling on Yun Yun.

"Hand over the Ascending Emperor Pill."

Yun Yun's face darkened.

"I bought the Ascending Emperor Pill. Why should I give it to you?"

A trace of savagery flashed through the Black Demon Ape's eyes.

"You refuse?"

"Then die."

It suddenly waved its hand.

"Kill."

The Silver Moon Wolf King threw back its head and let out a long howl.

The four Fifth-Tier Magical Beasts lunged forward at once.

Yun Yun drew her sword, and the Dou Qi within her surged explosively.

The aura of a Three-Star Dou Emperor erupted without reservation.

She slashed her sword at the Crimson Flame Tiger charging in front.

Her sword aura was fierce, forcing the Crimson Flame Tiger back with a single strike.

But the other three magical beasts had already reached the group.

Gu He circulated his Dou Qi and met a Frost Python head-on.

He possessed the strength of a Dou Wang and could barely hold on against a Fifth-Tier Magical Beast.

Liu Ling stood to the side, his face deathly pale.

He was only a Dou Shi. In a battle of this level, he could not intervene at all.

Nalan Yanran was equally pale. She gripped her sword tightly, her hands trembling.

The Black Demon Ape moved.

Its enormous body charged toward Yun Yun, every step shaking the ground.

Yun Yun raised her sword to block.

The Black Demon Ape smashed down with its fist.

Yun Yun's sword flew from her grasp, and she was sent flying into the wall.

She spat out a mouthful of blood.

A Three-Star Dou Emperor against a Sixth-Tier Magical Beast—the gap was simply too great.

The Silver Moon Wolf King pounced at Gu He.

Gu He was locked in combat with the Frost Python and had no time to react.

The Silver Moon Wolf King's claw struck his chest.

Gu He spat out a mouthful of blood.

Yun Yun leaned against the wall, her face pale and a streak of blood still hanging from the corner of her lips.

The Black Demon Ape walked toward Yun Yun step by step.

Its gaze swept across Yun Yun's body, and greed flashed in its eyes.

"Human woman, you're quite good-looking."

It extended its massive hand toward Yun Yun.

Yun Yun gritted her teeth and tried to circulate the Dou Qi within her body, but that punch had seriously injured her meridians.

She could not raise her Dou Qi at all.

The Silver Moon Wolf King's gaze fell upon Nalan Yanran.

Greed also flashed through its eyes.

"This little one isn't bad either."

The two magical beasts attacked at the same time.

The Black Demon Ape reached for Yun Yun, while the Silver Moon Wolf King lunged at Nalan Yanran.

Nalan Yanran's face turned completely white.

She closed her eyes.

Just then, a figure appeared before her.

Xiao Xuan.

He raised his right hand and threw a punch.

The force of his fist collided with the Black Demon Ape's palm.

A thunderous boom rang out.

The Black Demon Ape's palm was knocked back, and its massive body staggered back several steps.

The Silver Moon Wolf King's claw was also knocked aside by Xiao Xuan's palm.

The two Sixth-Tier Magical Beasts steadied themselves and stared at the human youth before them, surprise flashing through their eyes.

Yun Yun opened her eyes.

When she saw Xiao Xuan standing in front of her, she froze completely.

Nalan Yanran opened her eyes as well.

Looking at Xiao Xuan's back, an indescribable emotion welled up in her heart.

Gu He leaned against the wall and stared at Xiao Xuan, his eyes filled with shock.

Xiao Xuan did not turn around.

He circulated the Dou Qi within his body, and the aura of a Six-Star Dou Emperor erupted.

A trace of gravity flashed through the Black Demon Ape's eyes.

"Human brat, who are you?"

Xiao Xuan did not answer.

He raised his right hand, and golden flames surged from his palm.

Golden Emperor Burning Heaven Flame.

The flames danced in his palm before transforming into a pillar of fire that blasted toward the Black Demon Ape.

It stared at Xiao Xuan, its eyes full of shock.

"A Heavenly Flame?"

Xiao Xuan gave it no chance to catch its breath.

His body flashed, and he appeared before the Black Demon Ape, striking its chest with his palm.

Golden flames erupted from his palm.

The Black Demon Ape let out a miserable scream.

Its enormous body flew backward and crashed heavily to the ground.

The Silver Moon Wolf King saw this, and terror flashed through its eyes.

It turned and fled.

Xiao Xuan did not pursue it.

He raised his right hand and circulated the Dou Qi within his body.

A high-level Heaven-tier Dou Technique—Yellow Spring Heaven Wrath.

An invisible sound wave spread in all directions.

The Silver Moon Wolf King's body suddenly stiffened.

The four Fifth-Tier Magical Beasts froze in place as well.

Blood poured from their eyes.

Blood flowed from their seven orifices.

The Silver Moon Wolf King let out a shrill scream.

Its enormous body crashed to the ground.

The four Fifth-Tier Magical Beasts also collapsed one after another.

All of them were dead.

The Black Demon Ape struggled to rise.

When it saw the corpses of the Silver Moon Wolf King and the four Fifth-Tier Magical Beasts, its eyes filled with terror.

It dropped to its knees with a thud.

"Spare me, my lord. I failed to recognize your greatness and offended you."

"Please spare my life, my lord."

Its voice trembled. None of its earlier arrogance remained.

Xiao Xuan looked at it without speaking.

The Black Demon Ape repeatedly kowtowed.

"Please spare my miserable life, my lord."

Xiao Xuan raised his right hand and struck out with his palm.

The force of his palm hit the Black Demon Ape's head.

Crack.

The Black Demon Ape's skull shattered.

Its enormous body crashed to the ground and did not move again.

Two Sixth-Tier Magical Beasts and four Fifth-Tier Magical Beasts.

All of them were dead.

Yun Yun leaned against the wall, watching the scene with eyes full of shock.

Sixth-Tier Magical Beasts were equivalent to human Dou Emperor-level experts.

Two Sixth-Tier Magical Beasts and four Fifth-Tier Magical Beasts had not even possessed the strength to fight back before Xiao Xuan.

Nalan Yanran stood frozen.

She looked at Xiao Xuan's back, her mind completely blank.

Xiao Xuan walked over to the corpses of the magical beasts.

He took a knife from his Storage Ring, split open the Black Demon Ape's skull, and retrieved a fist-sized black Magic Core from within.

A Sixth-Tier Magic Core.

Then came the Silver Moon Wolf King.

Its silver-white Magic Core was also the size of a fist.

He removed the Magic Cores from the four Fifth-Tier Magical Beasts one by one as well.

The multicolored Magic Cores radiated dense energy fluctuations.

Xiao Xuan stored the Magic Cores in his Storage Ring and stood up.

Nalan Yanran walked over to him.

Her eyes were still slightly red.

Just now, she had truly thought she was going to die.

Xiao Xuan had saved her.

"Xiao Xuan."

"Thank you."

Xiao Xuan glanced at her.

He withdrew his gaze and turned to leave.

Nalan Yanran froze for a moment.

"Xiao Xuan, you..."

Xiao Xuan did not stop walking.

"I killed those magical beasts for their Magic Cores. It had nothing to do with you."

Nalan Yanran stood where she was, watching Xiao Xuan's retreating back as she swallowed all the words on the tip of her tongue.

Yun Yun withdrew her gaze and sighed inwardly.

Gu He struggled to his feet.

He looked in the direction Xiao Xuan had disappeared, excitement nearly overflowing from his eyes.

He had to find a way to befriend Master Xiao.

At any cost.
