Elder Yao's Fear

"The seal within my body should be restored by tomorrow." Xiao Yan lay quietly on the boulder in front of his cave, recalling the events of the past few days.

"Ah..." After an unknown amount of time, Xiao Yan sighed with a sense of melancholy.

"Forget it, we still have to go to that Magical Beast's cave tomorrow, why think so much?" Xiao Yan shook his head and laughed self-deprecatingly.

However, Xiao Yan felt these past few days had been worthwhile. With such a beautiful woman by his side, even the monotonous and tedious cultivation was no longer so unbearable.

Not to mention...

Xiao Yan recalled a certain romantic scene, and his face instantly turned red. Although he was a pervert, he was still a little embarrassed!

Where Xiao Yan couldn't see, a figure in green robes was also looking at Xiao Yan's location with a complicated expression. Sensing that the other party seemed to be in front of her, she immediately closed her beautiful eyes and slowed her breathing.

"Are you sure you're okay?" Yun Yun looked at the young man with a worried expression.

This time, we're going to force our way into the Amethyst Winged Lion King's Cave. If they block the entrance, we won't even have a chance to escape.

"Don't worry, I'm a Dou Shi after all, and my movement skills are pretty good too, so there won't be any problems." Xiao Yan said with an eager expression.

His decision to help this woman named Yun Zhi obtain the Amethyst Spirit Crystal was not only in response to her request, but also driven by his body's instinct for adventure.

The thought of doing something so exciting made Xiao Yan's blood boil.

"Alright, be careful!" Yun Yun whispered.

"What do you want?" Yun Yun said, her face flushed, as she slapped away the groping hand that was reaching out to her.

"Of course I'll have you take me there," Xiao Yan said matter-of-factly, then his tone shifted. "Do you really want me to take such a huge risk and run all the way to the Amethyst Winged Lion King's Cave by myself?"

"You..." Yun Yun rolled her eyes at Xiao Yan, feeling that he was up to no good.

However, what Xiao Yan said did make sense, so she could only reluctantly agree, "Don't move around, or I'll throw you down."

He made his threat with a sour expression, but it was clearly not very effective.

"Don't move your hands!"

"The wind is too strong, and I'm afraid of heights..."

Along the way, Yun Yun could only endure someone's little antics, but it was obvious that she couldn't actually throw him out.

The two of them, through a mixture of taking advantage of each other and enduring the situation, arrived near the Amethyst Winged Lion King's Cave.

"The Amethyst Winged Lion King's Cave is so heavily guarded!"

Looking at the several high-level Magical Beast in front of the cave, Xiao Yan couldn't help but click his tongue and sigh.

"I will do my best to deal with these Magical Beasts and lure the Amethyst Winged Lion King out. Then, it's up to you," Yun Yun said solemnly.

"Alright!" Xiao Yan knew that now was not the time to let his mind wander, and he was equally serious.

After the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, Yun Yun unleashed her Dou Qi without reservation. With a swing of her long sword, she instantly killed several third-tier Magical Beast leaning against her.

"You damned human, how dare you provoke me!" The moment she appeared, the furious voice of the Amethyst Winged Lion King suddenly echoed from the cave.

"Lion King, if you hand over the Amethyst Spirit Crystal to me, I will leave immediately," Yun Yun's cold voice rang out.

"Give you Amethyst Spirit Crystal? I'll send you on your way right now!" But the only response was the Amethyst Winged Lion King's murderous declaration.

Then Xiao Yan saw a purple streak of Flowing Light shoot out from the cave, and Yun Yun's azure wings fluttered slightly, suddenly soaring into the sky. Immediately afterwards, another earth-shattering battle broke out in the Magical Beast Mountain Range.

Meanwhile, the many Magical Beast guarding the entrance to the Amethyst Winged Lion King's cave were also watching the battle in the sky with great concentration. Some of the lower-level beings did not even dare to glance at it and could only prostrate themselves on the ground, trembling all over.

"Phew~"

"Time to get to work!" Looking at the two third-tier Magical Beast in front of him, Xiao Yan took a deep breath and clenched his fists.

Carefully making his way to the vicinity of the cave, Xiao Yan sprinkled some calming powder on himself and, seizing the opportunity, finally managed to sneak in.

"Amethyst Spirit Crystal... Amethyst Spirit Crystal..." Xiao Yan kept repeating in his mind as he ventured deeper into the winding cave.

After walking several dozen steps, the view suddenly opened up.

"Wow, this Amethyst Winged Lion King really knows how to enjoy life!"

Seeing the magnificent interior of the cave, Xiao Yan was amazed, especially by the incredibly impressive five-meter-wide bed, which made him want to lie down on it.

"You brat, stop joking around. Finding the Amethyst Spirit Crystal is the important thing. You don't have much time." At this moment, Elder Yao's inappropriate voice rang in Xiao Yan's mind again.

Elder Yao was well aware that the female Dou Emperor named Yun Zhi was significantly weaker than the Amethyst Winged Lion King.

If it weren't for the fact that her Dou Qi was wind-attributed and extremely fast, allowing her to barely manage a prolonged battle, she wouldn't even be qualified to fight the Amethyst Winged Lion King.

Moreover, for some reason, ever since entering the Amethyst Winged Lion King's cave, Elder Yao had a strange feeling.

"Understood, teacher." Xiao Yan complained slightly and continued to venture deeper into the cave.

More than ten minutes later.

"What is this?" Xiao Yan looked at the stone platform in front of him, which was more than a meter high, with a purple sphere the size of a human head on it.

"Teacher, it's your turn!" Xiao Yan had become quite adept at using the tactic of consulting Elder Yao when in doubt.

Upon hearing Xiao Yan's call, Elder Yao slowly floated out, observed the purple sphere for a while, and then said with great surprise, "You really have incredible luck, kid, to even encounter Accompanying Amethyst Source."

"Accompanying Amethyst Source?"

"That's right. This Accompanying Amethyst Source has a very small chance of being born only when the Amethyst Winged Lion King is giving birth, and it can smoothly upgrade a fourth-order Amethyst Winged Lion King to the Fifth Order."

"Do you think this is a good thing?" the Elder Yao asked in return.

"This thing is mine!" Xiao Yan exclaimed excitedly, immediately grabbing at the Accompanying Amethyst Source. But the next moment...

"Damn, this is so hot!" Xiao Yan looked at his scalded hand and quickly grabbed some healing medicine to apply it.

"Kid, you actually dared to grab me with your bare hands! I respect you as a real man!" Elder Yao's teasing voice came, making Xiao Yan blush.

"Teacher, tell me quickly, how can I get this Accompanying Amethyst Source?" The tone was anything but polite.

Originally, the Elder Yao wanted to keep the matter a secret and give this brat who didn't know how to respect his teacher a little more a bit of a challenge. However, the unease in his heart grew stronger and stronger, so he temporarily gave up the idea and said, "You can break it open with Amethyst Spirit Crystal."

"Amethyst Spirit Crystal?"

Xiao Yan was taken aback at first, then overjoyed and said, "The Amethyst Spirit Crystal should be in the other passage."

As he spoke, Xiao Yan suddenly turned around, retraced his steps, and headed towards another passage.

"Huh? There's actually a path inside?"

After Xiao Yan managed to lure away the Little Amethyst Winged Lion King in the cave using some tricks and found the Amethyst Spirit Crystal, he suddenly continued to walk deeper into the cave as if possessed.

Finally, as Xiao Yan moved forward, the end of the entire cave appeared before his eyes.

There was almost nothing in sight, but a dark hole facing Xiao Yan, emitting a strange fluctuation, caught his eye.

Just as Xiao Yan was about to continue his investigation, he suddenly heard Elder Yao's urgent shout, "Not good, Little Yanzi, retreat quickly!"
