Only Those Who Dare to Fight Can Win!

"Yunzhi, congratulations!" Xiao Le hurriedly changed the subject.

Unfortunately, it was too late. Yun Yun's face flushed. Thinking back on their time together over the past month, she immediately realized it—what kind of physician was Xiao Le? No wonder she had never seen him prepare any medicinal herbs.

A three-foot azure blade instantly appeared in Yun Yun's hand. Holding it, she looked rather valiant, but the icy smile on her face left Xiao Le in no mood to admire her.

Xiao Le truly wanted to slap himself twice.

A chaotic chase and scuffle soon played out in the quiet little courtyard, adding a touch of warmth to the place.

Yun Yun, whose seal had yet to be lifted, quickly ran out of strength. She had not truly intended to kill him; she was merely upset and wanted to teach Xiao Le a lesson.

Xiao Le understood this as well. Seeing Yun Yun exhausted, he slowed down and let her catch him. After a friendly exchange, the two sat down on the ground.

The atmosphere of parting immediately eased somewhat.

"I hope you can do me a favor. Once I lift the seal, I will seek out the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King again. When the time comes, while I keep it occupied, I hope you can sneak into its lair and help me find the Purple Spirit Crystal." Yun Yun broke the silence.

"Mm!"

The night sky was exceptionally beautiful. For some reason, the stars shone with boundless brilliance one after another, and even the moon was perfectly full.

Little Fairy Doctor also set aside her work and sat beside them, admiring the night sky together.

Xiao Le secretly glanced at the two women beside him. He did not believe that Yun Yun could have fallen in love with him after less than two months together. As for giving up on Yun Yun, Xiao Le knew he could not do it.

To hell with it—if I die, I die!

Xiao Le gritted his teeth and thought fiercely. He stared at Yun Yun with a savage look, and Yun Yun sensed something strange and turned toward him.

Before Yun Yun could react, Xiao Le suddenly lunged at her.

"Xiao Le, you—"

Before Yun Yun could finish, Xiao Le bit down on those shy red lips.

After doing all this, Xiao Le lay flat on the ground, closed his eyes, and said shamelessly, "If I didn't do it now, I'd never get another chance. Kill me or torture me, go ahead!"

"You..." Yun Yun bit her lip, furious. She cursed Xiao Le inwardly for not knowing how to cherish a woman, actually using his teeth. Her delicate lips still hurt.

"I just like you. I'll take responsibility no matter what. Even if you won't give me a chance, I'll still do it!" Xiao Le raised his head and continued acting shamelessly. After throwing out those words, he lay back down and played dead.

Little Fairy Doctor's eyes remained calm, making it impossible to tell what she was thinking. Yun Yun, however, was feeling extremely conflicted. She still had far too many responsibilities to bear.

Ever since that forceful kiss, Yun Yun ignored Xiao Le, while Little Fairy Doctor remained as she had always been, unchanged. This left Xiao Le depressed for quite some time.

Xiao Le had not stopped searching for the Tempering Heart Mist Grass, but he still found no trace of it. He even had the Beast Venerable read the memories of magical beasts, yet there was still no progress.

This made Xiao Le increasingly frustrated, and he was about to give up searching the Magic Beast Mountain Range.

Boom!

Powerful Dou Qi surged violently, and the thatched cottage instantly turned into flying straw. Had Xiao Le not pulled Little Fairy Doctor away quickly enough, the two of them might have been blown away by that aura.

Fortunately, the owner of the Dou Qi quickly realized what had happened and swiftly withdrew it. Yun Yun, who had once fought the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King alone, had returned...

The next day, Yun Yun flew toward the site of their previous battle while carrying Xiao Le like a chick. This was also her way of getting back at him and venting the dissatisfaction she had built up over the past few days.

Yun Yun set Xiao Le down from afar. She had already sensed the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King approaching.

"Human, I never thought you would dare come back?"

Before the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King arrived, its deafening lion's roar had already swept over them.

Yun Yun had no desire to waste words. Gripping her three-foot azure blade, she charged straight at the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King and caught it completely off guard.

"Madwoman!"

The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King's furious roar rang out.

Only after shocking fluctuations erupted in the distance did Xiao Le run toward the cave where the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King lived.

At the cave entrance lay three enormous magical beast corpses. They had been guarding the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King's lair. Xiao Le quietly avoided the remaining guards and stripped the entries from the three corpses.

Only after completing the download did he sneak toward the cave entrance.

The stench was so thick it nearly knocked Xiao Le unconscious. He sealed his breathing with Dou Qi and endured the discomfort as he felt his way into the cave.

The cavern was broad enough for more than a dozen people to enter side by side. As he went deeper, scorching heat enveloped him, and fire-element energy within was especially active. If a fire-attributed cultivator trained here, one day would equal three days of arduous cultivation.

Xiao Le soon reached the end. There stood a stone platform built from piled purple crystal stones, upon which rested a purple, spherical object as large as a head.

The Companion Purple Crystal Source!

Of course Xiao Le recognized it. Staring at the sphere emitting scorching heat, he was extremely excited. This was a treasure.

"Companion Purple Crystal Source? Kid, your luck..." Even the Beast Venerable did not know how to praise Xiao Le's luck.

Xiao Le quickly took out a diamond-shaped crystal from his chest. Yun Yun had given it to him before they came; with it, he could locate the Purple Spirit Crystal.

"Don't say this old man didn't warn you. There's a third-tier young Purple Crystal Winged Lion King in this cave, and this old man will not help you!" After saying that, the Beast Venerable turned into a wisp of green smoke and slipped into the soul crystal in Xiao Le's chest.

Xiao Le grumbled helplessly. Following the crystal pendant's guidance, he headed toward another section of the cave and peeked inside.

A miniature, immature Purple Crystal Winged Lion King was sleeping peacefully, completely unaware that a little thief had slipped in. A third-tier magical beast was not something Xiao Le could deal with at his current level.

If he triggered the aura Yun Yun had left inside him, not only would he alert the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King, he would also waste this life-saving trump card.

Poison? No. How had Xiao Yan dealt with this in the original story? No matter how hard Xiao Le thought, he could not remember the original plot. Too much time had passed, and he had long forgotten it.

Xiao Le suddenly wanted to slap his thigh, but fortunately remembered in time that his current surroundings did not allow such a thing.

Before he came, Little Fairy Doctor had given Xiao Le many life-saving poisons. One of them was colorless and odorless, capable of spreading through the air. It contained not the slightest toxicity; it merely made sleeping creatures sleep more deeply.

The temperature in the air was extremely high. The moment Xiao Le took out the jade bottle and pulled out its wooden stopper, the medicine inside evaporated rapidly. He gently blew it toward the young Purple Crystal Winged Lion King.

After waiting for quite a while, until the entire bottle had evaporated, Xiao Le quietly crept toward the young Purple Crystal Winged Lion King.

Following the guidance, Xiao Le finally felt a powerful signal from the purple crystal stones near the young Purple Crystal Winged Lion King's feet.

He lightly tapped the purple crystal floor tile.

Sure enough, it was hollow. Xiao Le carefully pried up the hollow purple crystal brick.

A purple spirit stone the size of a fist, covered in sharp spikes, appeared within the hollow. He hurriedly took it out and placed it in his storage ring.

The Purple Spirit Crystal was his!
