Starting from Douluo to Capture Goddesses

If the gap weren't too vast, it would still muster the courage to fight.

But if the gap were beyond imagination, that would be akin to seeking death.

And it had no intention of courting death.

When the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King heard Xu Ran's voice, it trembled with fear on the spot and immediately, with its tail between its legs, walked out from its cave, displaying a posture of submission.

"Master, I..."

The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King prostrated on the ground, and looking at Yun Yun by Xu Ran's side, it grew even more terrified.

If it had known about this human woman's relationship with the master, how could it have committed such a foolish act? If it had offered the Purple Spirit Crystal earlier, might it not have had the chance to forge a connection with such a powerful figure?

An endorsement from such a ruler among Magical Beasts could cause its "Cultivation Level" to surge.

It had wasted such an opportunity for nothing!

Now, it might have already offended the master to death.

The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King was filled with regret.

Though the Purple Spirit Crystal was exceptionally precious, to be in good favor with that powerful being would have been a huge gain indeed.

Yun Yun's eyes widened upon seeing the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King kneeling directly before Xu Ran. She knew that these Magical Beasts were incredibly proud and getting them to kneel was harder than ascending to the heavens.

How could Xu Ran...

A Sixth-order Magical Beast was kneeling before Xu Ran. Was she seeing things? Even though Xu Ran was a Seventh Rank Alchemist, the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King didn't know that.

Could there be other secrets about Xu Ran that she was unaware of?

At this moment, Yun Yun felt that Xu Ran was shrouded in secrets everywhere; despite becoming more familiar with him over the past few days, she still couldn't see through him at all.

Why would a sovereign among Magical Beasts fear Xu Ran like this?

Was it solely out of fear of death?

These Magical Beasts were known to harbor deep animosity towards humans. Especially the sovereigns, who would rather die than bow down to humans. Otherwise, why wouldn't powers like the Yunlan Sect have a few Magical Beast pets?

If they were ordinary Magical Beasts, submission was possible. But a Magical Beast above rank 6, and moreover, one that ruled over a territory, was simply unimaginable.

"What kind of magic does this guy possess?" Yun Yun couldn't help but stare at Xu Ran's profile, pondering in her heart.

She had to admit, even she was subdued.

Such a man was indeed an irresistible existence for a girl.

A powerful Magical Beast, which was so defiant in her presence just a while ago, now in front of Xu Ran didn't dare even to release a single fart.

This stark contrast made her gaze at Xu Ran with a myriad of fascination.

If Xu Ran weren't such a philanderer, she might have fallen for him too.

"I would never fall for such a jerk! And besides, he's already with Yan Ran." With a complex expression, Yun Yun suppressed the surging thoughts in her heart.

"Purple Crystal Winged Lion King, you hurt my woman. Are you aware of your crime?" Xu Ran looked at the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King, as an even more terrifying aura pressed towards it.

The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King became even more fearful.

The presence that seemingly towered above all living beings made it even more respectful.

"My lord, I... I did not know she was your woman. If I had known, not even ten times the courage would have prompted me to do such a thing," the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King said in human speech, quivering with fear.

It had the feeling that this powerful being before it could easily take its life without a second thought.

"My lord, these are Purple Spirit Crystals. All the Purple Spirit Crystals of our Purple Crystal Winged Lion King clan are here," said the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King, hastily presenting the crystals it had prepared for several days.

The pile of Purple Spirit Crystals that had been assembled into a small mountain made the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King feel pained by the loss, but for its life, the price was worth paying.

"So many?"

Yun Yun was startled by the Purple Spirit Crystals brought out by the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King. These Purple Spirit Crystals were treasures; otherwise, the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King wouldn't have guarded them so jealously. But now that it actually brought out so many, it probably handed over the entire treasure reserve of its clan.

This left Yun Yun astonished.

"Is this enough?" Xu Ran looked towards Yun Yun.

"Enough, enough indeed," Yun Yun was at a loss for words. She knew Xu Ran could get Purple Spirit Crystals from the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King, but she hadn't expected Xu Ran's actions to make the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King give up its principal reserves.

And so easily...

"Seeing your sincere attitude, I'll spare you this time. I'm not unreasonable, so take this elixir as compensation," Xu Ran said casually as he tossed an elixir next to the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King.

"My lord, is this?"

The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King was overjoyed.

In its eyes, whatever Xu Ran took out was definitely worth much more than the Purple Spirit Crystals.

Initially embarrassed for kneeling to Xu Ran, it suddenly became excited beyond words, wishing it could kowtow a few more times to receive more rewards from Xu Ran. Don't assume these magical beasts are so proud; that's only in front of their subordinates and the weak. When facing a strong being from the Magical Beast Realm, they are as docile as kittens.

"This is a Metamorphosis Pill."

"Metamorphosis Pill..."

"Thank you, my lord, thank you. From now on, anything you command, even if it means climbing a mountain of swords or descending into a sea of flames, I will not hesitate," the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King looked at Xu Ran with eyes filled with admiration.

It had actually received a Metamorphosis Pill!

And it always felt that this pill was not that simple. It could sense the immense power within it. If it ingested the pill, it could not only transform but might also seize the opportunity to break through to the Seventh Order as a Magical Beast.

"There's no need for thanks. Just be more astute in the future. If my people come to the Magic Beast Mountain Range again and something happens, you know the consequences. But if you handle things well, the Seventh Order will be far from your limit," Xu Ran said indifferently. Without his help, the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King would have reached the limit of its growth in this life and would have struggled to make further progress.

"Yes, yes, yes. I'll remember this. From now on, I'll be vigilant; whoever dares to harm your people is making an enemy of me, the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King!" the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King knelt on the ground, overjoyed.

Yun Yun, witnessing this scene, went from initial shock to unsurprised acceptance. However, the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King seemed to have misunderstood her relationship with Xu Ran. When had she become Xu Ran's wife?

"With the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King around, the people of Yunlan Sect will have extra protection when they cultivate in the Magic Beast Mountain Range," Xu Ran said to Yun Yun.

"Mm, thank you for your trouble," Yun Yun said with a slight nod and then proceeded to collect all the Purple Spirit Crystals into her Storage Ring. These Purple Spirit Crystals, if auctioned, would be worth tens of millions and could equate to the Yunlan Sect's annual income.

"Now that the matter is settled, I should take my leave. If you find the time, come and visit Yan Ran at the Yunlan Sect," Yun Yun said, having no reason to linger after obtaining the Purple Spirit Crystals.
