Yun Yun Arrives at the Monster Mountain Range (Edited)

At dawn, as the valley was just beginning to lighten, Xiao Yan opened his eyes.

A delicate, pretty face, fast asleep, came into view.

Her long, azure hair was casually draped over her shoulders, and beneath her fair neck, the snow-capped mountains could be vaguely seen, partially obscured by a thin blanket.

Seemingly sensing the awakening of the person beside her, Yao Ling slowly opened her eyes and immediately saw the person she had been longing for day and night, looking at her with a smile.

Immediately, she recalled what had happened last night, and a blush spread across her cheeks.

His Dou Qi seems to have increased.

It wasn't just my imagination.

That's roughly the increase in her Dou Qi after a week of focused training.

However, the specific situation still needs further investigation before a conclusion can be reached.

With her skills Tier 9 Golden Pill Core alchemist, she will surely achieve something!

With something on her mind, Yao Ling naturally wouldn't stay in bed any longer. She immediately crawled out of the covers, speaking in a childlike but extremely gentle tone:

"I'm going back now. If you need to relax, just let me know. I'll grant any request from Junior Brother Xiao Yan."

After saying that, Yao Ling buried her little head in Xiao Yan's arms again, listening to the boy's strong and powerful heartbeat, feeling very satisfied.

Hmph, although Ya Fei has already made a fait accompli and won first place, Yao Ling will definitely be the second!

Having said that, she ignored the two ice-blue outfits she had left aside the night before, put on a new dress, and hurriedly left.

She still needs to come up with a plausible explanation for not coming home last night.

Otherwise, it would look like she's cheating, which would be too hurtful to their sisterly relationship.

Xiao Yan felt quite comfortable. After lying on the bed for a while, he put the ice-blue suit into his Storage Ring and placed it together with the small pieces he had obtained earlier, thus completing his set.

After feeling comfortable, I can finally focus on my cultivation.

Taking out the Green Lotus Throne, Xiao Yan got up and sat down. He then casually set up a soul barrier to cover the small wooden house and prevent him from being disturbed before beginning his cultivation.

On the other side, Yao Ling had just returned to the small wooden building when she bumped into Shi Xuanxuan, who was coming out of her room to prepare for her morning exercise.

Shi Xuanxuan was also taken aback when she saw Yao Ling return from outside. She remembered that Yao Ling didn't usually get up this early.

"Good morning, Sister Xuanxuan!"

Although Yao Ling had eaten two meals, she clearly lacked experience and simply walked over, greeting Shi Xuanxuan with a smile.

"Hmm, what's this?"

Shi Xuanxuan looked at Yao Ling, who had changed her clothes and looked refreshed, and felt a little strange.

"I encountered some difficulties in refining medicine last night, and I consulted Senior Xiao Yan all night."

Yao Ling had already prepared her explanation and said with a smile.

Seeing the satisfied smile on Yao Ling's face, which clearly indicated that she had gained something, Shi Xuanxuan had no doubts.

"I'm going for my morning exercise. I've been busy all night. You can send me a message when you get back."

Shi Xuanxuan nodded and walked directly towards the door.

"Okay, Xuanxuan, you go ahead."

As Shi Xuanxuan brushed past her, Yao Ling nodded obediently.

Huh?

This smell is so familiar...

As Yao Ling began to speak, her childlike nature was immediately apparent.

Shi Xuanxuan paused, but then continued walking as if nothing had happened, stepping out of the cabin.

Call!

Yao Ling breathed a sigh of relief, still unaware of anything unusual about herself, and silently returned to her room.

In the room next door, Ling Yanfei, who knew that Yao Ling had gone to Xiao Yan's place and hadn't returned all night, was already used to it and didn't find it strange.

After all, they dared to mine like that before the relationship was even established. Now that the relationship is established, if they still mine, wouldn't the establishment of the relationship have been for nothing?

However, it's clear that I shouldn't even think about Yao Ling Spirit Summoning Technique on the medicine spirit anymore.

Otherwise, who knows what kind of trouble this sister with her lewd mind would cause me!

The other women seem more normal.

Huo Zhi, on the other hand, was focused on cultivating.

Winning over Xiao Yan is, of course, necessary.

But cultivation should not be neglected.

She knew what Xiao Yan would face, and therefore, she wanted to do her part.

Although she really likes Xiao Yan, she hasn't reached the point where she can suppress her feelings and let go of everything like Yao Ling.

As for Zi Yan?

"Xiao Yan!"

Zi Yan woke up screaming from her nightmare.

After taking in her surroundings, Zi Yan patted her bare chest, took a few deep breaths, and calmed down.

She had a nightmare!

She dreamt that she was trapped inside a strange energy crystal layer, and Xiao Yan was using his Heavenly Flames to help her refine that energy crystal layer.

This process is very long.

After an unknown amount of time, Xiao Yan was exhausted and almost couldn't hold on any longer, but he gritted his teeth and persevered.

At this crucial moment, many enemies arrived. They seemed to be his own people, but they were hostile to him.

One of them possessed an extremely powerful aura, far surpassing her current level.

It felt like an Eighth-Rank Magical Beast.

That person wanted to harm Xiao Yan.

Then she woke up.

A strange dream.

Is this some kind of early warning?

Or is it that I've been thinking about him too much lately?

No, I can't be imagining things. This dream was too real; it felt like it actually happened!

No, I can't let Xiao Yan get into such danger because of me!

She needs to work hard at her cultivation!

Thinking of this, Zi Yan took out a jade bottle from her Storage Ring, and then actually stuffed the entire bottle of pills into her mouth and swallowed them whole.

So much, I'm so full...

As Zi Yan felt the abundant medicinal power within her body being refined, she felt, "Ugh, so sleepy..."

Her small body slumped back, and Zi Yan fell asleep again.

The other entrance to the Monster Mountain Range.

A figure in azure light stopped, revealing a stunningly beautiful woman within.

She wore a light blue elegant dress, her hair was styled up, and an exquisite Phoenix Hairpin added to her noble air. Her mature and voluptuous figure, accentuated by the fitted dress, was as tempting as a ripe peach. Her beautiful and charming face was calm and serene. Judging from her graceful and noble demeanor, she was Yun Yun, who had rushed here overnight after leaving Misty Cloud Sect.

I wonder how Xiao Yan's cultivation is going. Once I get the Purple Spirit Crystal, I'll send him some; it should be of great help to him.

After all, this Purple Spirit Crystal can not only be used in medicine, but also help those who practice fire-attribute techniques to accelerate their cultivation speed.

Although obtaining the Purple Spirit Crystal was actually a costly task for Gu He, who was the only Sixth-Grade Alchemist in the sect, she would have preferred to give it to Xiao Yan if the Purple Spirit Crystal she obtained were insufficient to share. As for Gu He, she could simply say that she hadn't won and return the payment for his help.

After all, his little apprentice seemed to be an alchemist as well, and quite skilled at it. He also had a teacher who was Sixth-Grade Alchemist, and before they parted, the apprentice had secretly given him an Imperial Extreme Pill.

Yun Yun was initially a little unhappy because Xiao Yan had secretly taken another teacher.

But after receiving the Imperial Extreme Pill, Yun Yun realized that Xiao Yan still preferred her as his teacher. Otherwise, how could he have persuaded his alchemist teacher to refine the Imperial Extreme Pill for her?

What a wonderful little apprentice!

Moreover, Gu He's feelings for her were too obvious, but she just couldn't like his personality. As for the Imperial Extreme Pill he had offered to curry favor with her not long ago, she had already taken it, so she naturally had no use for it.

Given the choice between a man who has designs on her but whom she has no interest in, and her favorite little apprentice, she would naturally choose the latter!

Thinking of her little apprentice, whose talent was nothing short of monstrous and whose temperament was quite mature, a faint smile appeared on Yun Yun's face.

Despite the fact that she had been trying to rectify the Misty Cloud Sect for the past two years and found that there were many problems that needed to be addressed, she felt very disappointed and exhausted.

But the thought that Xiao Yan would be willing to formally join the Misty Cloud Sect after it was thoroughly reformed gave Yun Yun more motivation, and her fatigue was greatly dispelled.

Hmph, I'll make that little brat look at the Misty Cloud Sect with new eyes!

What's with the pretense of being a little adult? Even though two years have passed, there's still some time until that kid's fourteenth birthday. He's clearly still a child, yet he cultivates so diligently. I don't know why...

However, considering the timeline, if we can successfully obtain the Purple Spirit Crystal, sending it to the Jia Nan Academy would be a perfect birthday gift for him.

Will he like this gift?

The smile on her lips deepened, and Yun Yun's beautiful eyes looked into the depths of the Monster Mountain Range, her gaze becoming sharp.

Hopefully, that Amethyst Winged Lion King will be sensible.

Otherwise...

Soon, Yun Yun arrived deep into the Monster Mountain Range. Her light blue dress fluttered in the wind, making her look like a goddess descended from heaven, with unparalleled beauty.

Her cool gaze swept across the mountains and forests below, and she quickly sensed the most powerful aura within the mountain range!

This is it.

Yun Yun whispered, her figure transforming into a streak of azure light, releasing the immense aura that only Dou Emperor could possess, and rushed straight towards the Amethyst Winged Lion King's cave.

"Roar--!"

A deafening roar erupted from the depths of the cave, the violent sound waves whipping up a fierce wind, and a colossal creature slowly emerged from within.

Its body was covered with thick purple crystalline scales that shimmered with a cold, hard luster in the sunlight. On its ferocious lion head, a single spiral horn burning with purple flames stood out, exuding majesty and power. Behind it, a pair of broad purple wings spread out, with Purple Flame rising from them. Its large, bell-sized eyes were fixed on the blue figure in the air, filled with vigilance and ferocity.

"A human Dou Emperor? What brings you to trespass on my territory?"

The Amethyst Winged Lion King spoke in human language, its voice like muffled thunder, causing the surrounding rocks to fall down in a rustling sound.

Sensing that Yun Yun's aura was even stronger than his own, the Amethyst Winged Lion King hesitated to attack directly.

It had only been a year since it became Dou Emperor, and even with its strong physical body, it could only barely contend with Two-Star Dou Emperor. The woman in front of it, however, was Three-Star Dou Emperor. If they really fought, it would be very troublesome.

Yun Yun hovered in the air, her voice clear and calm:

"I apologize for disturbing the Lion King's meditation. I have come here only to request five pieces of Purple Spirit Crystal."

"Purple Spirit Crystal? My Amethyst Winged Lion Clan can only shed a small piece from their bodies every twenty years. How can you just ask for it like that?"

Upon hearing this Amethyst Winged Lion King's eyes flashed with mockery, and he coldly said...

"Having cultivated to such a level, the Lion King must have shed quite a few Purple Spirit Crystal over the years. Why don't you just name your price? I'm willing to exchange them for pills or treasures of equal value."

Yun Yun patiently tried to negotiate.

"Exchange? Sure, if you can get me a Human Transformation Pill, I'll give you three Purple Spirit Crystal, how about it?"

Upon hearing this, the Amethyst Winged Lion King laughed loudly.

"That's really asking for the moon."

Upon hearing this, Yun Yun's eyes turned icy cold.

She realized that this stubborn fellow had no intention of switching places with her at all; he was treating her like a victim of injustice!

"In that case, I'll take it myself!"

Yun Yun flipped her hand, and a strangely shaped longsword appeared in her hand. She then raised her arm, pointed the sword at the Amethyst Winged Lion King, and said coldly.
