"Sorry. It was an emergency, so please don't take offense."
Xiao Tianci took a deep breath, forcefully suppressing the distracting thoughts in his heart before speaking.
He truly could not understand why Yun Yun had still been able to walk moments ago, yet had become like this in the blink of an eye!
"Leave. We need to leave first. The Purple Spirit Crystal can trigger the seal." A trace of color appeared on Yun Yun's pale face as she nodded and spoke in a voice as faint as a mosquito's buzz.
At this moment, her entire body was limp and powerless. The Dou Qi within her had been completely sealed, and even walking was difficult, so she could only rely on Xiao Tianci to support her.
"Alright." Xiao Tianci hurriedly nodded at the sight.
With every second he delayed, he felt that Yun Yun's condition worsened slightly.
Therefore, Xiao Tianci did not dare hesitate in the slightest. With a flick of his arms, he directly scooped Yun Yun into a princess carry and rushed toward the cave exit.
For now, Yun Yun's safety was the most important thing. As for the Purple Spirit Crystal, they could deal with it after her seal had been lifted.
Otherwise, they might have a life to take it, but no life left to use it.
Yun Yun felt the way Xiao Tianci was carrying her.
In an instant, her pretty face turned crimson, and even the skin beneath her clothes seemed to take on a faint flush.
"I..." Yun Yun parted her red lips slightly, as though she wanted to say something.
Yet the moment she opened her mouth, a faint purple flame emerged.
Yun Yun immediately shut her mouth.
For some reason, being held in Xiao Tianci's arms gave her a slight sense of security.
"Don't overthink it. Once we're out, I'll treat your injuries." Xiao Tianci hurriedly said.
Yun Yun had an exceptionally good figure, so every movement she made was quite a trial for Xiao Tianci.
Especially in such a scorching environment, Xiao Tianci felt as though he could barely suppress the heat rising within him.
Just as Xiao Tianci held Yun Yun and charged toward the cave exit.
Outside the valley, three black figures quietly flew over.
These figures were completely wrapped in black robes, and the aura they exuded was exceptionally cold and sinister.
"Why have these ghostly things followed us here?" Yao Lao's voice suddenly rang in Xiao Yan's ears, filled with deep wariness.
"What are they?" Xiao Yan subconsciously looked toward the sky.
At once, the three black-robed figures appeared in Xiao Yan's field of vision.
A storm surged through Xiao Yan's heart.
What were these things with such evil and powerful auras?
"Teacher, who are they?" Xiao Yan asked instinctively.
However, the familiar voice did not sound in Xiao Yan's mind.
A stunned expression appeared on Xiao Yan's face.
"Teacher? Teacher?"
The ring on his hand remained completely still, without the slightest reaction.
Something suddenly occurred to Xiao Yan.
"Could they be the Soul Hall people Teacher mentioned before?"
That icy aura filled Xiao Yan with an intense sense of disgust.
At the same time, Xiao Yan carefully observed them.
He knew that with his current strength, he was definitely no match for these three Soul Hall members. If Yao Lao were discovered by Soul Hall now, Xiao Yan feared he would have no way whatsoever to stop them.
Therefore, before his strength improved, fleeing was the most sensible choice.
Unfortunately, the moment the three black-robed figures arrived, their soul power sealed off the entire area.
Yao Lao was concealing Xiao Yan's aura. If he remained still, perhaps the Soul Hall members would not notice him.
But if he ran, given his own strength, there would be no outcome other than being captured.
"Damn Soul Hall. Once I gain enough strength, I'll wipe every last one of you out!"
Xiao Yan gritted his teeth, unable to stop his fists from clenching as he spoke in a low voice.
At this moment, he did not even dare speak loudly!
"This is the place."
After the three Soul Hall members arrived above the valley, they stopped in midair.
All three instinctively turned their gazes toward the magical beast corpses on the ground.
"Heh heh heh, I can sense it. That person was struck by the Amethyst Winged Lion King's Amethyst Seal, and their strength has greatly declined. The moment they come out, attack!"
The leader of the black-robed figures laughed as he spoke. His laughter sounded like sharp pieces of steel scraping against one another, making goosebumps rise uncontrollably.
"Mm."
The three then looked toward the Amethyst Winged Lion King's cave entrance, gathering their Dou Qi as they prepared to strike at any moment.
"So these three are here for that man and woman from earlier." Xiao Yan finally let out a breath of relief.
As long as they were not here for him, it was fine.
But then, a trace of anxiety appeared in his eyes.
If he remembered correctly, that Dou Emperor woman had suffered severe injuries, while the sword-wielding young man had expended a great deal of strength. He did not know whether the two of them could withstand the Soul Hall members.
Xiao Yan's gaze also instinctively turned toward the cave entrance.
Under the watchful eyes of several people, Xiao Tianci carried Yun Yun and strode out of the cave.
"Attack!" the leader of the Soul Hall members roared.
Whoosh! Whoosh.
Three black chains shot out from beneath their black robes at incredible speed.
The targets of those three chains were none other than Xiao Tianci, who had just stepped out of the cave!
The chains carried immense force and were wrapped in black mist.
The three clearly coordinated flawlessly. As the chains twisted, they directly sealed off Xiao Tianci's retreat!
Under such circumstances, an ordinary person would likely be pierced through by the black chains before they could make any preparation at all.
Unfortunately for them, they were facing Xiao Tianci.
The arm holding Yun Yun did not tremble in the slightest.
His leg gave a slight twitch, and a smile crossed his lips.
Then, one black wing and one white wing spread open behind him.
With a light beat of the Demon God Wings, Xiao Tianci's speed suddenly soared. He flew into the sky, easily evading the three chains.
The three Soul Hall members clearly had not expected Xiao Tianci to dodge, and for a moment, they failed to withdraw their strength.
The three black chains slammed viciously into the mountain wall behind them.
Boom!
The chains sank into the mountain wall with a deafening crash.
Even the sturdy amethyst crystals spread across the mountain wall were effortlessly pierced through!
After flying into the sky, Xiao Tianci stopped, his face cold as he looked at the three Soul Hall members.
"I didn't expect you to find us so quickly. Since that's the case, then all of you can stay here for good."
