Chapter 1088: Save Yun Yun_1

The azure sky was a spectacle, with shades of cyan and red covering nearly half of the horizon.

In the sky, there was a giant magical beast. Its massive body, about seven or eight meters in length, was actually covered in a layer of purple crystalline substance. Bathed in sunlight, it dazzled and shone, quite blinding to the eyes.

The head of the magical beast was a fearsome lion's head, with blood-red eyes flecked with a strange purple light. Its enormous mouth was filled with sharp teeth, and above its lion's head was a fiery red spiral horn. Clusters of purple flame twined around the tip of the horn. On the sides of its massive body were a pair of purple wings; as they flapped, bursts of pale purple flame spilled out like flamethrowers, covering the sky. Its four sturdy paws were also encapsulated in a layer of purple crystal. Each step it took made the void tremble, unimaginable was the extent of its strength.

The massive magical beast stood aloft in the void. An invisible, awe-inspiring pressure descended from the sky, causing other magical beasts in the Magic Beast Mountain Range to scatter in terror and flee in all directions.

"Is this the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King?"

Xu Ran looked at the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King with some astonishment, noticing its obviously noble lineage. If on Soul Land, such a bloodline, if properly cultivated, would surely achieve a level no less than that of ferocious beasts like the Red King.

Shaking his head in amazement at the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King's appearance, Xu Ran then turned his gaze to Yun Yun, who was confronting the creature.

His gaze swept over Yun Yun's curvaceous figure, and Xu Ran couldn't help but swallow his saliva.

She was clad in a simple gown that hugged her full and delicate form, holding in her hand a rather odd-looking long sword that emitted a cyan glow. Her hair was styled in an elegant Phoenix hairpiece, and her beautiful, tranquil face did not show any signs of concern despite facing the formidable magical beast well-known in the Jia Ma Empire.

Behind Yun Yun, there was a pair of cyan wings that were slightly ethereal, a sign of their formation through her own Dou Qi concentration. Dou Qi Hua Yi was almost a hallmark of powerful Douwang and above.

In the sky, Yun Yun stood calmly, her peaceful beauty belying nobility and grace that even her simple attire could not hide.

"Human woman, why have you come to disturb my rest?" From above in the sky, the massive Purple Crystal Winged Lion King suddenly bellowed in human speech.

"I wish to borrow a piece of your Purple Spirit Crystal," Yun Yun replied, her captivating eyes focused on the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King, her mild voice resonating like pearls dropping onto a jade dish, clear and delightful.

"Purple Spirit Crystal? My clan can shed only a small piece from our bodies every twenty years. Do you think it's something you can have just by asking?" The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King sneered.

"I can exchange it for something you need," said Yun Yun, who seemed to have some reservations about this sixth-order ferocious beast, thus her tone was not forceful.

"An exchange? Heh, good, I've been in the Metamorphosis Phase recently. If you can bring me a Metamorphosis Pill, I will give you the Purple Spirit Crystal, how about that?" the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King taunted.

"Metamorphosis Pill..."

"Since the Lion King is unwilling, then we can only start a battle," Yun Yun said, frown tugging at her graceful features as she then raised her long sword, sending out a streak of cyan sword light.

Watching the grand battle unfold between Yun Yun wife and the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King, Xu Ran admired Yun Yun's exquisite beauty.

"What a pity. She's a bit outmatched," Xu Ran commented as he watched the battle in the sky, easily determining that Yun Yun was no match for the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King. Although the lion king was still at the Douhuang level, it was nearing the latter stages, while Yun Yun was somewhat weaker in terms of "Cultivation Level". Moreover, magical beasts were tough and resilient, and in battles of equal rank, it was difficult for a cultivator to gain the upper hand. More importantly, the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King possessed a sealing ability.

"Amethyst Seal!" After a prolonged battle, the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King roared, and a beam of purple light instantly shot into Yun Yun's body. In just a moment, Yun Yun felt the speed of her Dou Qi flow within her body drastically slow down.

And the next instant, the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King's paw swipe towards Yun Yun's chest.

"Get lost!"

Xu Ran furrowed his brows.

Although he was prepared to play the hero and save the beauty, he also didn't want Yun Yun to actually get hurt. She was his intended wife, after all. If she were really injured, where would he put his face?

And on top of that, a chest wound?

In the original story, Yun Yun was injured there, and then Xiao Yan took advantage of treating Yun Yun's wounds. Xu Ran certainly didn't want the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King to injure Yun Yun in the same way again. Although that would give him a chance to get close to Yun Yun, she would eventually be his, and he wasn't in a rush for the moment.

Even if a magical beast touched his wife, he would get angry.

A terrifying bloodline aura awakened from within Xu Ran's body. As the beast blood boiled, the mighty Ancestral Dragon Bloodline blossomed a mere sliver, and it drove all the magical beasts within the Magic Beast Mountain Range mad.

Within the mountain range, countless powerful magical beasts awoke from their slumber in terror; as a result, the somewhat deserted mountains suddenly echoed with various strange and exotic beastly roars.

The magical beasts that were qualified to live within the heart of the Magic Beast Mountain Range were at least rank 3 or above. These magical beasts were beginning to possess spiritual intelligence, unlike those outside who acted purely on instinct.

But at that moment, they felt an unprecedented pressure.

It was an aura that only the supreme of magical beasts could possibly possess.

That oppressive feeling was something even magical beasts of the Dou Huang Level could not compare with!

It seemed as if a mere thought from this presence could erase them from existence!

The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King was also scared senseless, looking at Xu Ran in the high sky, holding Yun Yun in his arms, its massive body trembling uncontrollably. It had greater intelligence than an average human and naturally understood that the oppressive sensation was emanating from Xu Ran.

Instantly, the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King thought of many possibilities.

But this must be a super magical beast!

And one that had already transformed into a human!

Because at this moment, its bloodline was being oppressed to the point it had no ability to retaliate, and the subconscious in its bloodline couldn't help but want to kneel and worship the human before it.

Xu Ran didn't stay any longer, holding Yun Yun, he headed off into the distance.

He didn't want Yun Yun to notice anything.

"You are..." Yun Yun looked at Xu Ran in surprise. She had not expected that at the very last moment, someone would come to her rescue. That was fortunate... otherwise, with her current condition, her Dou Qi sealed, falling into the hands of the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King would have been terrible.

"Xu Ran." Xu Ran did not conceal his identity.

"You are Xu Ran?" Yun Yun was somewhat astonished. She looked him up and down, somewhat shocked; Xu Ran was much younger than she had imagined.

So young, yet with such achievements, and also possessing such high attainments in alchemy, how high must his talent be?
