Treasure-Stealing Duo

"You go lure away that Aquatic Cyan Scaled Dragon, and I'll go get the Seven-Leaf Xuanbing Lotus."

Nalan Chenfeng pondered for a moment, then earnestly instructed Ziyan.

Why should I be the one to lead them away?

Ziyan pouted in dissatisfaction.

"Because you're currently stronger than me, you're bigger, and you can take a beating."

"Besides, aren't these medicinal herbs for you to consume?"

Nalan Chenfeng looked at Ziyan and said matter-of-factly.

Even if Dou Huang expert is very fast, and can stop time and safely retreat a distance, once their aura is locked on, they can still be easily caught up.

Therefore, he should try his best to avoid this situation and avoid direct contact with Sixth-Rank Magical Beast.

Ziyan is different. Even a Dou Zong powerhouse like Great Elder Su Qian would have a hard time capturing Ziyan. The spatial talent of the Ancient Void Dragon race is truly remarkable.

"Snort..."

Ziyan was speechless after being choked by Nalan Chenfeng's words, but upon closer reflection, it seemed that what Nalan Chenfeng said made sense.

Her physical defense and strength are indeed much stronger than Nalan Chenfeng's small frame.

She was taking the medicine herself, and the fact that this person was willing to help her was already very kind of them.

"Alright, then hurry up, don't keep me waiting too long, I can't beat that big guy."

Ziyan nodded and agreed.

"You don't need to fight him, just keep him occupied for a bit. Five minutes later, regardless of whether I succeeded or not, return to the Inner Academy."

Nalan Chenfeng's expression was solemn as he gave the instructions again.

The consequences of angering a Sixth-Rank Magical Beast are extremely serious; this is not a child's play, but a matter of life and death.

Sixth-Rank Magical Beast mostly have their own territories. For example, the places they had carefully passed through before were all territories of the Fifth-Rank Magical Beast under the command of this Aquatic Cyan Scaled Dragon.

Once this king of the Magical Beast Mountain Range goes berserk, he, One-Star Dou Wang, and Ziyan will have a hard time dealing with it.

"Good."

Ziyan nodded her little head, this time without expressing any dissent.

"That's a good boy."

When Nalan Chenfeng first saw Ziyan being obedient, he couldn't help but reach out and pat Ziyan's head, looking quite mature for his age.

Don't touch my head, or I'll beat you up.

Ziyan slapped Nalan Chenfeng's hand away, revealing her tiger teeth, and puffed out her cheeks in a threatening manner.

When this guy came out of Sister Yue's place, there was a lingering milky scent on his hands, which was Sister Yue's scent.

She has a very sensitive nose; she has an innate keen sense of smell and can easily distinguish it.

It's easy to imagine what this guy did to Sister Yue with that hand before.

"Don't mess with the tiger's backside. Alright, let's hurry up."

Nalan Chenfeng paid no attention and was completely unaware of the impression he left on Ziyan, and continued on his way.

Ziyan followed closely behind, and the two concealed their auras, quickly heading towards the mountain where the Sixth-Rank Magical Beast was located.

About ten minutes later.

Nalan Chenfeng and Ziyan stopped in the dense forest, gazing at the majestic mountain peak in front of them.

"This is it."

Ziyan lowered her voice and pointed towards the mountaintop.

Nalan Chenfeng looked up and saw that the mountain peak was shrouded in clouds and mist, from which he could vaguely sense the aura of a fierce magical beast.

That is the king of this mountain range, Sixth-Rank Magical Beast, the Aquatic Cyan Scaled Dragon.

"Proceed according to the previous plan, but be careful."

Nalan Chenfeng nodded to Ziyan.

"Um..."

Ziyan responded, and then a pair of purple wings appeared on her back. Her Dou Wang- level aura was not concealed at all, and her figure transformed into a stream of light, heading straight for the mountaintop.

Seeing this, Nalan Chenfeng did not linger. He concealed his aura and went to the other side of the mountain, waiting for the right opportunity.

Inside the mountain peak lies a hidden paradise.

Inside a naturally formed karst cave, a vast, emerald-green lake lies quietly, its waters crystal clear and shimmering with wisps of cool air.

In the center of the lake, a lotus flower, entirely white, blooms quietly. It has seven petals, each one like an ice sculpture, with a thin layer of frost on its surface.

Seven-Leaf Xuanbing Lotus.

At the heart of the lotus, the seven lotus seeds gleamed with a lush green luster and emitted a refreshing fragrance.

On the other side of the lake, a huge cave is clearly visible, with an entrance several meters wide, deep and dark, and a powerful aura emanating from it.

"Boom!"

Just then, a loud bang suddenly came from the direction of the mountaintop.

Immediately afterwards, an angry roar came from the depths of the cave, the sound waves rolling and causing rocks to fall from the cave ceiling.

"It's you again, you wretched little thing!"

"This time, I will definitely skin you alive!"

A colossal creature burst out of the cave, its entire body covered in azure scales, its body over ten zhang long, and its vertical pupils filled with ferocity.

Aquatic Cyan Scaled Dragon, Sixth-Rank Magical Beast.

"You big stupid snake, come and catch me if you dare!"

Ziyan's figure flashed across the mountaintop, stuck out her tongue at the Aquatic Cyan Scaled Dragon, and then flew away into the distance.

"Court death!"

The Aquatic Cyan Scaled Dragon roared, its massive body unfurling wings, and soared into the air, chasing after Ziyan.

"Now."

Seeing the Aquatic Cyan Scaled Dragon chasing after the Ziyan, Nalan Chenfeng's eyes narrowed, and he shot out from the other side of the mountain peak, heading straight for the center of the mountain.

In just a few breaths, Nalan Chenfeng had already reached the mountaintop and could see the hidden cave within the peak.

"Seven-Leaf Xuanbing Lotus, such abundant energy! No wonder that little girl can't stop thinking about it."

Nalan Chenfeng's gaze lingered on the lotus-shaped plant in the center of the lake, sensing the abundant energy emanating from it, and he understood.

Herbs that can be guarded by Sixth-Rank Magical Beast are clearly not ordinary.

"Go!"

Without even raising his hand, Nalan Chenfeng unleashed a dark red battle Dou Qi that instantly condensed into a blade and slashed towards the base of the lotus flower.

"Bite!"

A crisp collision rang out, and a transparent energy barrier appeared around the Seven-Leaf Xuanbing Lotus, blocking Nalan Chenfeng's attack.

"Prohibition..."

Nalan Chenfeng frowned.

As expected of a spiritual herb guarded by Sixth-Rank Magical Beast, it wasn't so easy to obtain. However, the power of this restriction wasn't strong; it was only used for sensing.

The energy restrictions set up by Dou Emperor are different from the spatial barriers left by Dou Zong; their protective capabilities are limited.

Flame Explosion Fist!

Nalan Chenfeng took a deep breath, clenched his right fist, and condensed dark red Dou Qi at the tip of his fist, slamming it hard against the energy barrier.

"Bang!"

As Nalan Chenfeng unleashed his Dou Technique with a punch, the transparent energy shield surrounding the Seven-Leaf Xuanbing Lotus shattered with a deafening roar.

Then Nalan Chenfeng waved his hand, transforming his energy into a blade, and slashed at the lotus root, causing the Seven-Leaf Xuanbing Lotus to detach from the lake.

"Succeed!"

Nalan Chenfeng raised his hand and placed the Seven-Leaf Xuanbing Lotus into the Storage Ring box in his storage ring, a process that was done smoothly and effortlessly.

It is obvious that the year or two that Nalan Chenfeng spent training in the Black-Corner Region taught him a lot.

"This place is no place to linger!"

Ignoring his joy, Nalan Chenfeng remained tense and, without the slightest hesitation, turned and flew towards the Inner Academy.

With the energy barrier broken, the Aquatic Cyan Scaled Dragon will surely sense it and rush back; it cannot linger for even a moment longer.

Just as Nalan Chenfeng flew out of the mountain peak, an angry roar suddenly came from afar, echoing through the sky.

"You little brat, you actually have accomplices!"
