Night Encounter with the Little Fairy Doctor

"Full? Let me see how well your wound has healed. If there's nothing serious, I can start helping you remove the seal today," Wu Changqing said.

"Okay."

Yun Yun obediently sat down in front of Wu Changqing, then slowly undid the buttons at her collar.

As she unfastened them one by one, her cheeks grew hotter and hotter.

This time, though, she did not need to take off all her clothes. She only needed to expose the area around the wound.

Even so, Yun Yun was still very embarrassed.

After all, the wound was located in one of the two most private places on a woman's body.

Wu Changqing gave it a brief examination. "The wound has recovered quite well. It's already begun to heal."

"If you don't have any other issues, we can remove the seal now."

Yun Yun buttoned her clothes back up and nodded. "No problem. You can remove it."

Having her cultivation sealed was an awful feeling.

Going from a powerful Battle Emperor to an ordinary person unable to use any cultivation at all left her with no sense of security.

The two then sat cross-legged facing each other. Wu Changqing swiftly formed two hand seals, then pointed a finger and gently pressed it against Yun Yun's chest.

"Sword Furnace: Devour!"

The Amethyst Winged Lion King's Amethyst Seal had fused with Yun Yun's meridians. Using the unique properties of his Sword Furnace, Wu Changqing drew out all the power of the Amethyst Seal.

As purple energy gradually flowed into his fingertips, Yun Yun's cultivation began to recover bit by bit.

In the end, Wu Changqing took less than ten minutes to extract all the power of the Amethyst Seal.

Yun Yun's cultivation was fully restored as well.

"How is it? Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?"

Yun Yun checked herself. Her cultivation had completely returned. "I feel like my cultivation has fully recovered. Other than the wound still hurting a little, I don't feel uncomfortable anywhere else."

"I didn't expect the Amethyst Winged Lion King to be so fierce. If not for the Heartsea Armor protecting me, I might really have been in danger."

Thinking back to yesterday's battle, Yun Yun still felt lingering fear.

Ever since breaking through to the Battle Emperor realm, she had never truly fought a life-or-death battle against an opponent of the same level.

Although she had sparred with Yun Shan and Wu Changqing before,

sparring was completely different from a battle where one risked one's life.

"Thankfully, it was a close call without any real danger. Now that the Amethyst Winged Lion King is dead, there are no magical beasts in the Magical Beast Mountain Range that can threaten us," Wu Changqing said.

"Although the Amethyst Winged Lion King is dead, we still haven't gotten the Purple Spirit Crystal. There should be more Purple Spirit Crystals in its nest. Let's go look."

Yun Yun had not forgotten the real reason they had come to the Magical Beast Mountain Range.

If they could not find the Purple Spirit Crystal, would this trip not have been for nothing?

The two left the cave and soon found the Amethyst Winged Lion King's lair.

With the Amethyst Winged Lion King dead, naturally no magical beast could threaten them.

They quickly found Purple Spirit Crystals inside the cave, as well as the precious Companion Purple Crystal Source, and took everything with them.

During this time, they also encountered a juvenile Amethyst Winged Lion.

But a young Amethyst Winged Lion was naturally no threat to them. It could only watch helplessly as everything in its home was taken away, wanting to cry but unable to shed tears.

Thus, Yun Yun and Wu Changqing's mission in the Magical Beast Mountain Range was complete.

Outer region of the Magical Beast Mountain Range.

A herbal-gathering party was advancing in an orderly manner.

"Everyone, be careful and stay alert!" The people responsible for guarding them were members of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group.

The Wolf Head Mercenary Group was one of Green Mountain Town's three major mercenary groups, and its strength was formidable.

Naturally, a herbal-gathering party that could hire them as guards was no ordinary group.

"Little Fairy Doctor, since yesterday, no one knows what has happened deep in the Magical Beast Mountain Range. Those magical beasts have been fleeing outward like mad, and there are clearly far more magical beasts around than usual."

"If we continue deeper, we may encounter even more danger." The leader of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group was their young commander, Mu Li.

Hearing this, the Little Fairy Doctor could not help frowning.

"Who knows what happened inside the Magical Beast Mountain Range to make so many magical beasts flee?"

There normally were not so many magical beasts in the outer regions of the Magical Beast Mountain Range.

"Then everyone should set up camp and rest here for the night. We'll return first thing tomorrow morning," the Little Fairy Doctor said.

"Yes!"

Having received her order, everyone began setting up camp where they were.

The night was dark and the wind howled. From deep within the forest came the occasional roar of magical beasts.

Most of the herbal-gathering party was resting. Only one figure silently slipped away from the group and came before a cliff under the cover of night.

"The cave seems to be down there."

The Little Fairy Doctor took out a rope, tying one end to a tree and lowering the other down the cliff.

Looking at the bottomless abyss below, she hesitated for a long while. Finally, she gritted her teeth, grabbed the rope, and slowly climbed down.

In a cave beneath the cliff was a place she had discovered while gathering herbs last time, a place that likely held something valuable.

When she had come to the Magical Beast Mountain Range to gather herbs this time, she had originally planned to take the opportunity to sneak down and see whether there was anything good inside.

She had not expected the situation in the Magical Beast Mountain Range to be so abnormal these past two days. They could not even go to the place where they had planned to gather herbs.

Although she could not gather herbs, it had not been easy to come all this way to the Magical Beast Mountain Range. Naturally, the Little Fairy Doctor wanted to see what was in the cave below.

She had chosen to come out at night because she did not want anyone else to know.

Especially Mu Li!

That was why she had secretly acted alone.

Although she was a little nervous, her desire to explore the treasure allowed her to overcome everything.

I hope there's something good.

The Little Fairy Doctor carefully made her way down.

However, she accidentally stepped on a loose stone, and her entire body suddenly plunged downward.

She hurriedly grabbed the rope, but not only did she fail to stop herself, the immense friction instantly tore open her delicate palms, leaving them bloody.

The Little Fairy Doctor could no longer hold onto the rope and fell downward.

It's over!

I'm going to die!

Just as her eyes filled with despair, a warm embrace suddenly caught her steadily.

The Little Fairy Doctor opened her eyes in shock. By the bright moonlight, she saw a handsome face, with a pair of Dou Qi wings spread behind him.

A Battle King?!

Wu Changqing held the Little Fairy Doctor and quickly flew to a stone platform nearby, setting her down.

"Running alone to such a dangerous place this late at night, aren't you afraid of dying?" Wu Changqing said.

If he had not happened to pass by, she would already have been smashed to pieces!

Still shaken, the Little Fairy Doctor's heart pounded rapidly.

"Thank you, Senior, for saving my life..."

Wu Changqing glanced at her torn hands and said,

"Hold out your hands. I'll bandage them for you."
