Starting from Douluo to Capture Goddesses

"But even if my strength is restored, I'm still no match for that guy." Yun Yun frowned her delicate brows. She had underestimated the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King before; her own strength was a notch below, and the Magic Beast Mountain Range was its territory.

"Could it be that I have to ask Xu Ran for help again?" Yun Yun felt conflicted.

Unless she got the kind of Breakthrough Sect Pill that Xu Ran mentioned, she couldn't defeat the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King on her own. Even if she managed to obtain such an elixir, she would need to prepare herself before taking it.

However, Xu Ran was very powerful. If he was willing to help her, the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King would not be able to harm her.

The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King wanted a Metamorphosis Pill. For Xu Ran, making such an elixir shouldn't be difficult. After all, Xu Ran could even produce a Breakthrough Sect Pill, and even if she had doubts about whether Xu Ran was an Eighth-grade Pharmacist, he must be at least a Seventh Rank Alchemist.

But now, was she going to ask Xu Ran for help again?

Who knows what kind of crazy idea Xu Ran would come up with next?

"Hey, why are you staring at me like that?" At this moment, Xu Ran returned carrying a roasted chicken. It was a Fourth-order Magical Beast, which had the misfortune of being chosen by Xu Ran to become barbecue.

"This is..."

"Aren't you a bit extravagant?" Yun Yun recognized at a glance that this roasted chicken was a powerful Magical Beast by its smell. Xu Ran was really lawless. If he stayed in this Magic Beast Mountain Range any longer, the strong Magic Beasts here might all end up being eaten by him.

Here, no Magical Beast could do anything to Xu Ran.

"It's just a Fourth-order Magical Beast. If you're seeking revenge, I might as well roast the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King too." Xu Ran began devouring the meat in large bites.

"You!"

"Forget it. The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King didn't provoke you," Yun Yun couldn't help but click her tongue. Even though the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King defeated her, she didn't hold any grudges. After all, she was the one asking for a favor. Plus, there weren't many strong rank 6 Magical Beasts in the Magic Beast Mountain Range.

The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King was a top-tier Magical Beast in the Magic Beast Mountain Range, not the slightest bit inferior to any of the Douhuangs from the Jia Ma Empire.

It was precisely because of these Magical Beasts that there was a balance in human mining activities in the Magic Beast Mountain Range.

If the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King were gone, the other Magical Beasts in this region would also be in danger.

"Didn't it provoke you?" Xu Ran said. He could wipe out the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King with a flick of his finger.

"You can't just kill it outright. A lesson is enough. All I want is the Purple Spirit Crystal. You just need to help me get that," Yun Yun nibbled on the roasted meat, feeling somewhat sympathetic for the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King.

If a rank 6 Magical Beast like that ended up as roasted meat, that would be too tragic.

"Oh."

"That works."

"But if I help you get it, how do you plan to thank me?" Xu Ran smiled. His relationship with Yun Yun had become much closer these days. Plus, he noticed that whenever he brought up Yan Ran to tease Yun Yun, she would get very angry, but underneath that superficial anger, there seemed to be something else hidden...

With plenty of experience, Xu Ran immediately felt that Yun Yun might just have a taste for this sort of thing. It was a question worth pondering. He would have to try harder to explore this in the future.

"What the hell do you want to do now? Don't even think about it. I will never agree!" Yun Yun stood up, her heart in disarray from Xu Ran's gaze, and turned her back on him.

She had never seen someone so bold before.

Even then, you can't just keep staring at a girl's face like that!

"Oh? And you, by yourself, can defeat the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King?" Xu Ran asked leisurely.

"If I can't win, I'll just go back to the Yunlan Sect and call for help," Yun Yun bit her silver teeth, refusing to be suppressed by Xu Ran. She was, after all, the Sect Master of the Yunlan Sect; how could she always be led by the nose by Xu Ran?

"Call for help? If you can call for backup, can't the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King do the same? This is the Magic Beast Mountain Range; it's their home turf," Xu Ran retorted.

"I really don't get it, how you could come to someone else's territory and try to steal things. Even if you did defeat the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King, there are still other powerful magical beasts here. Are you just big-breasted and brainless?" Xu Ran said irritably.

Xu Ran was getting angry just thinking about it!

In the original story, if Xiao Yan hadn't come across Yun Yun, she would have been finished.

At that time, an unconscious Yun Yun could have been killed by any magical beast in the inner area of Magic Beast Mountain Range.

And that Purple Spirit Crystal wasn't such a remarkable treasure to begin with.

"You're the one who's big-breasted and brainless. What business is it of yours what I do?" Yun Yun stamped her foot, feeling agitated. She too thought that she had been rash. Ever since her breakthrough to Douhuang and becoming the Sect Master of Yunlan Sect, she had grown proud and hadn't anticipated that the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King would be stronger than her.

"You're my woman; if I don't care about you, then who will?" Xu Ran pursed his lips.

"Who is your woman? When did I ever agree to that?" Yun Yun grew even angrier.

"Isn't it just a matter of time?" Xu Ran muttered under his breath.

"You!"

"Despite already having Yan Ran, you still have your eye on someone else. When I get back to the sect, I'll certainly expose your true face. Yan Ran loves you so much; back at the Sect, she's so lovesick that she can't even think about eating or drinking... Men really are all rotten," Yun Yun said, flushed with both embarrassment and anger.

Ever since Nalan Yanran left the Xiao Family after breaking off the engagement, she had been constantly thinking about Xu Ran, bordering on being unable to eat or drink.

Thinking about her beloved disciple having genuine feelings for Xu Ran, while he was fickle, made her feel furious and frustrated. At the same time, she felt an indescribable sensation at the bottom of her heart.

"Yan Ran will understand me..." Xu Ran said, though even he felt somewhat embarrassed.

"Forget it, let's say I help you get that Purple Spirit Crystal back. Now that your strength has recovered, it's time for me to leave. Heh, I'll come to visit you at Yunlan Sect later," Xu Ran said, and with a stomp of his foot, he disappeared.

"This bastard..."

On hearing that Xu Ran was about to leave, Yun Yun was stunned for a moment, feeling a sense of loss.

She lightly tapped the ground with her foot and followed after Xu Ran. She had to see for herself how Xu Ran would deal with the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King.

Was Xu Ran's strength really that impressive?

...

"Purple Crystal Winged Lion King, come out."

Xu Ran frowned and, upon arriving at the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King's territory, released just a hint of his bloodline aura.

That mere hint sent all the magical beasts in the mountain range into a state of panic, scurrying about in fear, and the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King itself was startled. These past days, it had been anxiously fearing that Xu Ran would come looking for trouble.

It knew that, although it reigned supreme in this Magic Beast Mountain Range, its strength was as nothing in the eyes of those top-level magical beasts. Just one breath from those mighty beings could leave it with no place to die. And in its eyes, Xu Ran was such a powerful entity.

It had never before encountered a magical beast so terrifying. Just the aura of his bloodline was enough to completely suppress any thought of resistance in it.
