Gu He Comes Looking

Looking at the bruises left on her body, although the seal on her body had been lifted, Yun Yun did not immediately return to the Misty Cloud Sect.

Even after you gave the Purple Spirit Crystal to Yun Yun, Yun Yun didn't make a move.

Yun Yun was somewhat puzzled when you took out the Purple Spirit Crystal, but after you explained it briefly, she didn't ask any further questions.

--The Purple Spirit Crystal was a piece that the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King shed over twenty years. This object might be of great use to humans, but it was utterly unremarkable to the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King.

[One day, after being away for a long time, Pill King Gu He searched the Magical Beast Mountain Range and even discovered the cave where you and Yun Yun were living together.]

"Sect Master Yun, are you in the cave?" With his experience as Sixth-Rank Alchemist, Gu He easily discovered the medicinal powder that could exorcise magical beasts nearby.

This indicates that humans live in the valley, and there are not many people in the Jia Ma Empire who can venture so deep into the Magical Beast Mountain Range.

Without a doubt, Yun Yun, who possesses the strength of Dou Emperor, is one of them.

The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King is the overlord of the eastern region of the Magical Beast Mountain Range. Although Yun Yun has the strength of Dou Emperor, there is still a possibility of unexpected events if she enters the territory of the monsters.

Did Yun Yun's deal with the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King fail, and was she subsequently attacked and injured by the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King?

Gu He thought with great concern.

"Ah...?"

Upon hearing Gu He's shout outside the cave, Yun Yun's scream immediately echoed from inside.

However, the sound had a strange, indescribable quality to it.

"Yun Yun, are you injured?" Gu He hadn't expected to find her so easily, and immediately stepped forward. "I have many healing medicines in my Storage Ring."

"Elder Gu... Elder Gu He, don't come in." Hearing Gu He's approaching footsteps, Yun Yun spoke haltingly, but her voice sounded quite anxious.

Gu He was taken aback for a moment, but he still listened to Yun Yun and stood still.

"Yun Yun, where is Xiao Yan? Is he dead?" Gu He asked from outside the cave.

Even Yun Yun, who was at the Dou Emperor level, was seriously injured, and her voice had changed. Given Xiao Yan's level, he was probably already dead inside the monster's belly.

It's a pity that Nalan Yanran, from the Nalan Family, became a widow not long after marrying Xiao Yan.

Gu He sighed and shook his head. He had originally thought that after Nalan Yanran got married, his disciple Liu Ling would give up his thoughts and focus on cultivating the art of alchemy.

With Liu Ling's talent, it's highly possible that she will surpass him in the future and become a Seventh-Rank Alchemist.

But now he's back to being distracted, which is very detrimental to his cultivation.

Gu He pulled Liu Ling up with one hand. Gu He knew very well that even Nalan Yanran's status as a widow could not stop Liu Ling.

"Dead?" Yun Yun looked at Xiao Yan, who seemed ready to devour her, her face flushing redder. She actually hoped that this scoundrel Xiao Yan would die.

Xiao Yan glanced at Yun Yun, then suddenly chuckled mischievously. Yun Yun immediately sensed something was wrong and tensed up.

But Yun Yun overestimated her endurance and suddenly cried out in surprise.

"What's wrong now?" Gu He's heart skipped a beat; it sounded like Yun Yun's condition wasn't good.

"Brother Gu He ..." Yun Yun pressed down on Xiao Yan's black hair, forcing herself to speak, "Xiao Yan is injured, and I'm healing him."

Upon hearing that Xiao Yan was still alive, Gu He breathed a sigh of relief and suggested, "Even if Xiao Yan is injured, he should still take some pills. With the pills I made, his recovery will be much faster."

Pills... Yun Yun pursed her lips; it was almost turning into a pill.

"Speak up, or Pill King Gu He will be coming in soon." Seeing Yun Yun lost in thought, Xiao Yan Yun Yun close to her ear and reminded her.

Yun Yun lowered her voice, a hint of pleading in it, and said, "Knowing that Gu He is outside the cave, once we return to the Misty Cloud Sect..."

"We'll talk about returning to the Misty Cloud Sect Misty Cloud Sect," Xiao Yan said, holding Yun Yun's slender hand with a rather greedy expression.

"You..." Yun Yun sighed softly, "It will all be over once we return to the Misty Cloud Sect. Don't have any other thoughts. I don't want Yanran to misunderstand."

"Is that so?" Xiao Yan chuckled mischievously. Yun Yun's insincerity was all too easy to spot.

Yun Yun found it difficult to look directly into Xiao Yan's dark eyes, and she knew that her words were not very convincing.

Given the current critical situation, Yun Yun couldn't imagine how she could possibly accomplish what she had said she would.

Yun Yun, too lazy to continue talking to Xiao Yan, glanced at the direction outside the cave and quickly said, "No, no need!"

"It's almost over," Yun Yun added. "Don't disturb us."

Gu He had a rather strange feeling, but he also knew that if the healing process was interrupted at a crucial moment, it wouldn't be good for either of them, so he didn't say anything more and just anxiously paced around in circles.

Hearing Gu He's rustling footsteps, Yun Yun tensed up. She was really afraid that Gu He might suddenly have a change of heart and come into the cave, in which case she would be too ashamed to face anyone.

Yun Yun suddenly exerted force with her arm, knocking Xiao Yan to the ground, her beautiful hair swaying.

Seeing Yun Yun go berserk, Xiao Yan's eyes widened in surprise.

After circling around for a while, Pill King Gu He suddenly stopped. If he had known it would end like this, he would have been more careful.

In fact, with Nalan Yanran's talent, if she cultivates slowly, she will definitely surpass her teacher Yun Yun in the future, so there is no need to rush.

Just as Gu He was deep in thought, his attention was suddenly drawn by a scream from the cave.

"What's wrong?" Gu He asked, quite surprised.

If Yun Yun, Dou Emperor, were to heal Xiao Yan, there should be absolutely no problem. Could it be that Xiao Yan suffered some fatal injury?

"It's over..."

The voice sounded weak and listless, yet possessed an indescribable quality, causing Gu He to frown.

"Elder Gu He, please wait a moment while I adjust my Dou Qi." Realizing her voice was off, Yun Yun quickly added.

With a clear conscience, Gu He silently sat down on a nearby rock.

"What do we do now?" Yun Yun looked at Xiao Yan, who looked completely at ease, and then glanced at the bruises on her own legs, completely oblivious to how to hide it from Gu He outside.
