Chapter 99: Purple Crystal Seal
Sister Yun Zhi!
Seeing the heavily injured Yun Zhi, a panicked expression immediately appeared on Xiao Yans face as he hurriedly came to her side and crouched down.
Yun Zhi, on the other hand, visibly relaxed upon seeing Xiao Yan unharmed.
Xiao Yan Cough, cough!
Yun Zhi was about to say something when she felt a sharp pain in her chest, causing her to cough violently, alarming Xiao Yan.
Sister Yun Zhi! Dont speak for now!
Gently supporting Yun Zhis delicate body, Xiao Yan took out a healing medicine from his storage ring and fed it to her. He then furrowed his brows and looked towards the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King.
What happened just now?
Its not my fault, huh! The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King turned its head slightly, grinning, This woman attacked first, and I was just defending myself.
In the first place, facing a human who was forcefully robbing something from it, the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King wouldnt feel guilty for injuring her.
However, the situation was a bit awkward because the woman turned out to be an acquaintance of Xiao Yan. Moreover, Xiao Yan seemed to have done a great favor to the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King, or else, as a dominant figure in the Magic Beast Mountain Range, it wouldnt bother explaining things to a mere Dou Shi (Battle Master, 3rd Level).
Whats more, she was the one who attempted to rob the item first. Although it was due to being forced into it, it was still a fact. She already felt embarrassed about doing such a thing, but she wouldnt go as far as denying her actions.
Hmph! If you had told me earlier that you knew Xiao Yan, you wouldnt have suffered like this! The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King looked down at Yun Zhi with a dismissive tone, while Yun Zhis expression became somewhat speechless.
How was I supposed to know that a sixth-rank magical beast like you knew Xiao Yan? Besides, I tried to stop you several times during the robbery, but it didnt work!
Enough, its not its fault. I was the one who prepared to rob it first.
After taking the healing medicine, Yun Zhi felt some of her injuries recovering. She spoke up with a sigh.
She had also noticed that Xiao Yan and the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King knew each other. Furthermore, it seemed that Xiao Yan had done the beast a great favor, or else the dominant figure in the Magic Beast Mountain Range wouldnt have bothered to explain things to a mere Dou Shi (Battle Master, 3rd Level).
Moreover, she was the one who attempted to rob the item first. Although she was forced into it, it was still a fact. It was embarrassing enough to engage in such a shameful act, but she wouldnt stoop so low as to deny her own actions.
Hmph! I only gave it to you because of Xiao Yan. If it werent for him, you wouldnt get the Purple Crystal Essence even if you brought the Form Body Transformation Pill.
The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King spoke, and with a thought, a purple crystal flew out from its mane and landed in Yun Zhis hand. She stared at the purple crystal in her hand in a daze.
Indeed, it was the Purple Crystal Essence, without a doubt.
Yun Zhi felt somewhat foolish, looking up at the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King.
Wait Youre giving it to me just like that? Why did you ask for the Form Body Transformation Pill earlier? Were you just trying to pick a fight with me?
The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King noticed Yun Zhis conflicted expression and snorted lightly.
Im only giving it to you because of Xiao Yan. If it werent for him, theres no way you would get the Purple Crystal Essence from me.
The Purple Crystal Essence was a crystal that the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King would shed every twenty years. Although it was extremely precious, it didnt have much practical use for the beast.
However, even so, it wasnt something the beast would give away to anyone who asked for it. The Form Body Transformation Pill it had asked from Yun Zhi earlier was not just to test her; if Yun Zhi really had the Form Body Transformation Pill, it wouldnt be a problem to give her more than just one piece of the Purple Crystal Essence.
Yun Zhi held the Purple Crystal Essence in her hand, feeling dazed for a moment. Although the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King took the initiative to give her the crystal as compensation for her injury, Yun Zhi knew very well that if it werent for Xiao Yan, the beast wouldnt have done so. She would have died just now.
Xiao Yans face must carry tremendous weight for it to act this way.
Just as Yun Zhis mind was in confusion, Xiao Yan furrowed his brow and looked at the peculiar purple mark engraved on the fair skin where her neck and chest connected. The mark was sealing her power, causing Yun Zhi, who should have been a Dou Huang (Battle Emperor, 7th Level), to now have her strength reduced to that of a Dou Zhe (Battle Practitioner, 2nd Level) .
What is this
Thats my Purple Crystal Seal. Until the seal disappears, her strength will remain at the Dou Zhe (Battle Practitioner, 2nd Level) level, the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King explained. Xiao Yan paused for a moment and looked up at it.
Is there a way to remove the seal?
I dont know.
The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King replied directly, and that was indeed the truth.
Normally, it would never intend to let its opponent survive when using this move, so why bother seeking a way to remove the seal?
Hearing the answer from the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King, Xiao Yans brow furrowed even tighter, and he inwardly asked Yao Chen for advice.
(Yao Chen, what is this Purple Crystal Seal)
(I dont know. Ive never heard of it. Dont ask me.)
Before Xiao Yan could finish asking, Yao Chen immediately denied it three times, leaving Xiao Yan stunned in place.
Although Yao Chen answered resolutely, Xiao Yan couldnt help but feel that something was off.
Its okay Give me some time, and Ill find a way to remove it myself. Yun Zhi, leaning against Xiao Yans arm, whispered to him, then looked at the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King and held the Purple Crystal Essence with a respectful bow. Thank you for the gift, and please forgive my previous offense.
Facing Yun Zhis gesture, the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King snorted dismissively, not taking it seriously at all.
In the beasts impression, Yun Zhis behavior had already put her in the same category as those greedy humans. Whether it was giving her the Purple Crystal Essence or Yun Zhis bow, it was all because of her acquaintance with Xiao Yan. Moreover, Yun Zhi was still alive because of Xiao Yans presence.
To the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King, Yun Zhis bow, along with her previous intentions to forcefully seize its possessions without any negotiation, further deepened the impression that humans were hypocritical and pretentious.
Since it had no regard for Yun Zhi, the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King naturally wouldnt show her any kindness. In any case, it would have no further interaction with her, so it didnt care how it treated her.
Xiao Yan, if theres anything wrong with my son, Ill call for you.
In contrast, the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King treated Xiao Yan with considerable attention and friendliness. After speaking, it turned and prepared to enter the cave. Xiao Yan hurriedly called out to it and extended the bottle of Purple Spirit Crystal towards it.
Wait, take this bottle of Purple Spirit Crystal
That was something I didnt finish eating before. If you dont mind, just keep it.
The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King said indifferently, then entered the cave.
Yun Zhi was left stunned by this scene.
It was reasonable for the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King to be displeased with her since she had intended to forcefully seize its possessions after negotiations broke down. Who would show a good face to a bandit?
However, Yun Zhi was puzzled by the way the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King treated Xiao Yan. A Dou Shi (Battle Master, 3rd Level) receiving favor from the ruler of the Magic Beast Mountain Range, the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King, was something that would be considered outlandish in stories.
Xiao Yan, why is the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King so friendly towards you?
Yun Zhi looked at Xiao Yan calmly and inquired.
I just helped it a few times, Xiao Yan replied, putting away the Purple Spirit Crystal. Since the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King said so, he wouldnt insist on giving it back, even though he still didnt know what it was.
Xiao Yan then looked at Yun Zhi with a hint of tenderness in his eyes and asked, Sister Yun Zhi, can you stand up?
Um
Only then did Yun Zhi notice that she was still being held in Xiao Yans arms. Her face blushed slightly as she struggled to sit up on her own. However, she ultimately failed.
The blow from the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King was too powerful, and it was only thanks to Xiao Yans healing medicine that her internal injuries had stabilized. As a result, she couldnt stand up on her own.
If you cant stand up, dont force yourself, Xiao Yan whispered, holding Yun Zhi and helping her to her feet. Let me take you back to the cave where I live for now.
Okay, Yun Zhi nodded gently and replied softly.
