Unexpected Joy

"I can help you remove the seal."

A wisp of Black Flame appeared on Xiao Yan's fingertip.

Strange Flame, even if the Void Swallowing Flame was just a Sub-Flame, just a child, it was still a Strange Flame, a flame with mystical power. Moreover, this was the second-ranked Void Swallowing Flame on the Strange Flame Ranking List.

The Amethyst Crystal Winged Lion King had merely used the Amethyst Crystal Fire within its body to block Yun Yun's meridians, sealing her Dou Qi. As long as the Void Swallowing Flame devoured the Amethyst Crystal Fire in her meridians and acupoints, Yun Yun would naturally be able to recover her Dou Huang strength.

Her injuries were nothing to worry about; Yun Yun had her own medicinal pills to recover.

Yun Yun's beautiful eyes stared at the Black Flame on Xiao Yan's fingertip, her delicate eyebrows furrowing slightly as she asked in puzzlement, "To materialize flames, one needs to be at least a fourth-grade Alchemist, or have the cultivation of a Dou Ling. Your battle prowess is comparable to a Da Dou Shi, but your cultivation should only be that of a Dou Shi, right?"

Yun Yun was also bewildered; the young man before her completely shattered her common sense.

Only a fourth-grade Alchemist or someone above the Dou Ling realm could materialize flames, yet he, a Dou Shi, had done it.

Only a Dou Wang could form Wings of Dou Qi, yet he had also done it.

Even the seal that she, a Dou Huang, couldn't break, he claimed to have a solution for.

Was he really a Dou Shi? He seemed more like a Dou Zong.

"Your Black Flame is very peculiar. It feels weak, yet it gives off a very dangerous aura," Yun Yun wasn't an Alchemist, so she couldn't possibly know about the Strange Flame Ranking List. She knew about Strange Flames, but the Black Flame was too weak, too different from the Strange Flames she knew, so she didn't consider that possibility.

"It's ancestral. Although it's a bit weak, its effects are top-notch." Xiao Yan touched his nose, lying without batting an eye.

"Let me see where the Amethyst Crystal Winged Lion King's seal is. It will take some time to completely remove the seal."

Hearing Xiao Yan's words, Yun Yun's body visibly trembled, and a blush immediately appeared on her cheeks.

Finally, after pondering for a moment, Yun Yun reached out and gently unbuttoned the front of her clothes. The sight of the beauty unfastening her garments already made Xiao Yan's mouth dry.

In the end, a purple rune was branded on the hollow of Yun Yun's chest bone. The rune extended many purple threads, and it was these threads that blocked her Dou Qi.

Xiao Yan glanced at the purple rune. It was large, so large that even her beautiful inner armor couldn't hide it.

Of course, this referred to the rune.

Xiao Yan took a deep breath, banishing all distracting thoughts, and condensed the Void Swallowing Flame on his fingertip, slowly approaching the outermost purple rune thread, gently touching it on her snow-white skin.

"Ah."

!!!? Hearing this cry, Xiao Yan instantly retracted his right hand, his pupils filled with shock! What are you yelling about!

Looking at Yun Yun, whose cheeks were as red as apples and filled with shame, Xiao Yan bit his tongue lightly and said in a deep voice, "Miss Yun Zhi, please bear with the pain."

Xiao Yan was becoming more and more skilled at lying. That cry didn't sound like pain at all. Xiao Yan had never tried using the Void Swallowing Flame to devour a seal before, so he didn't know what it would feel like.

Only Yun Yun knew that when the Void Swallowing Flame invaded her skin and devoured the Amethyst Crystal Fire, a surge of heat would enter her body due to the collision of the two flames, causing her body to heat up.

Xiao Yan's hand was even trembling slightly as the devouring power of the Void Swallowing Flame slowly devoured the Amethyst Crystal Winged Lion King's seal.

Yun Yun slowly closed her beautiful eyes, her long eyelashes trembling slightly, her lips tightly sealed, her hands forcefully gripping the hem of her skirt, enduring the 'pain' to prevent herself from making a sound.

After exhausting all his Dou Qi, Xiao Yan retracted his finger and turned around, saying, "Let's continue tomorrow after I recover my Dou Qi."

"Oh." Yun Yun exhaled a breath of hot air, as if she had taken a hot bath, her skin flushed, her eyes filled with spring.

"You can stay in the cave for now; I'll keep watch outside tonight."

Watching Xiao Yan's departing figure, Yun Yun smiled radiantly, "Thank you."

Xiao Yan ran far away before letting out a long sigh. Recalling the feeling of that skin just now, he felt a little restless.

He couldn't help but compare it to Xun Er's skin.

"She's over thirty years old, yet her skin is so well-maintained." It was evident how important Xun Er was in Xiao Yan's heart; he had to compare everything to her.

As the night deepened, Xiao Yan began to cultivate cross-legged.

"Hmm? What is this ball of pure energy near the Soul Collection?" Xiao Yan suddenly discovered that there was an extra ball of pure energy next to the Soul Collection in his body.

The Void Swallowing Flame could indeed devour everything, but it wouldn't provide feedback to Xiao Yan. It would only make itself stronger, so the Black Flame that Xiao Yan used would become stronger, but his cultivation wouldn't increase as a result.

"This extra pure energy is... is Yun Yun's?!"

The sudden thought made Xiao Yan's heart skip a beat. He never expected that when the Void Swallowing Flame devoured the seal, it would bring back a little bit of Yun Yun's Dou Qi energy.

Yun Yun was a Dou Huang expert, even if only a little bit of benefit leaked from her fingers, it would greatly benefit Xiao Yan!

After quite a while, he calmed down, pondered for a long time, and a hint of delighted smile quietly surfaced in his heart. He would just treat it as surgery fees. How could anything that reached Xiao Yan's hands be allowed to slip away?

Xiao Yan's mind sank, and his soul force controlled that ball of energy, beginning to circulate it according to the Burning Art Cultivation Method's route. Only after it faintly appeared somewhat viscous did he pour it into his Qi vortex, making it become a part of Xiao Yan's Dou Qi cultivation.

Xiao Yan couldn't help but lick his lips. If he had another one or two of these energy balls, he could break through from a three-star Dou Shi to a four-star. He had only just become a three-star not long ago, but unexpectedly, he had received a windfall.

This made Xiao Yan have even more anticipation for breaking the seal for Yun Yun tomorrow.

Why 'even more'? Only Xiao Yan himself knew.

Three days later, the purple runes on Yun Yun had already diminished by more than half, and the extended purple fire lines had been completely erased. Xiao Yan's finger was like an eraser, slowly moving down along the patterns of the runes.

His finger slowly felt an extraordinary elasticity. Xiao Yan gritted his teeth, muttering in his heart, "Hold on, Xiao Yan, you can't lose to beauty. If you mess up, Yun Yun will recover her Dou Qi and slap you to death. That would be a wasted death."

"My life is important! Xun Er is still waiting for me to return to Canaan Academy! I can't let her become a widow!"

Just as Xiao Yan was in the midst of a battle between man and god, a powerful aura suddenly awakened. Xiao Yan looked at Yun Yun, who had her eyes closed in front of him. That terrifying aura was erupting from Yun Yun's body.

Xiao Yan hurriedly retracted his finger and retreated. A surge of azure Dou Qi erupted from Yun Yun's body, forcibly breaking through the remaining bit of the seal! With a whoosh, a pair of azure Wings of Wind, resembling phoenix wings, appeared behind Yun Yun, proving that she had completely recovered! Looking at the imposing Yun Yun before him, Xiao Yan understood that this game of make-believe was coming to an end. It was time to meet the Amethyst Crystal Winged Lion King.

Before the unsealing, Xiao Yan could still maintain a playful attitude, but once a battle was required, Xiao Yan seemed to become a different person.

Yun Yun's jade hand slowly reached out and gently pressed against Xiao Yan's back, a surge of turbulent Dou Qi energy violently pouring into the Amethyst Cloud Wings.

A pair of azure Amethyst Cloud Wings appeared on Xiao Yan's back.

"This Dou Qi is enough for you to use a flying Dou Technique for an hour. If anything uncontrollable happens, leave immediately!"

Xiao Yan nodded faintly, his expression instantly turning cold, his eyes sharply looking towards the cave where the Amethyst Crystal Winged Lion King was. The ambiguous events that had occurred in the past few days seemed to have been instantly forgotten.

The most important thing in Xiao Yan's heart right now was still the Ten Thousand Beasts Spirit Flame.

Boom boom! With two sounds of air being torn apart, two streaks of azure light, dragging long tails of flame, shot straight towards the Amethyst Crystal Winged Lion King's cave.
