Chapter 47

**Chapter 47: Yun Yun Seriously Injured

"Ha! you arrived just in time.

Now I can finally let loose!" Xiao Ning cracked his knuckles, turned around, and grinned as he saw the little Amethyst Winged Lion King charging out of the passage.

The little Amethyst Winged Lion King was only a third-tier magical beast.

Despite its impressive potential, it was merely at the peak of the third tier.

Xiao Ning, who could easily defeat even high-level fourth-tier beasts, considered it nothing more than a minor obstacle.

Earlier, Xiao Ning had used a powder to avoid detection and summoned the Amethyst Winged Lion King.

But now that he had secured his prize, there was no need to hold back.

Activating his Ziyun Wings and some Kunpeng techniques, Xiao Ning darted towards the passage with no attempt to conceal his movements.

"Roar!"

A furious roar echoed from ahead as the little Amethyst Winged Lion King glared at Xiao Ning with rage-filled eyes. Without hesitation, it launched an attack, enraged by being knocked out in its own home.

"Heh, as expected, that powder didn't keep you down for long,but it did its job."

Xiao Ning smirked with excitement.

He threw a punch at the little Amethyst Winged Lion, their clash sending shockwaves through the air.

"Boom!"

In an instant, the amethyst ground beneath Xiao Ning's feet shattered, debris flying everywhere.

The little lion king, which took up nearly half the passage, was hurled into the air, slammed against the cave roof, and crashed back down.

Stars danced in its vision, leaving it disoriented.

"Haha, is that all you've got?" Xiao Ning laughed loudly. Seizing the opportunity, he punched the little Amethyst Winged Lion again, sending it tumbling further down the passage.

Its amethyst armor rattled, barely holding together.

Yet, Xiao Ning held back from delivering a killing blow.

He wasn't a fool,Yun Yun was still locked in battle with the Amethyst Winged Lion King outside.

If he killed its offspring, the Lion King would become uncontrollably furious.

Instead of continuing to fight Yun Yun, it might rush back to deal with him.

And no matter how confident Xiao Ning was, he knew he wasn't ready to face a fully enraged sixth-tier beast.

"Woo..."

The little Amethyst Winged Lion , now awake, darted through the passage, desperately trying to escape.

It let out a pitiful whimper, its eyes filled with confusion.

It couldn't comprehend how someone with such low aura could overpower it, the stronger one.

Despite Xiao Ning's reluctance to kill, the little lion king struggled to survive, narrowly evading his attacks.

Meanwhile, outside, in the sky above, Yun Yun and the Amethyst Winged Lion King were clashing with tremendous force.

Their battle sent shockwaves through the clouds and devastated the surrounding area as if a natural disaster had struck.

Below, other beasts trembled in fear.

"Boom!"

Another thunderous explosion echoed, as terrifying energy ripples spread from the collision of storm and fire.

The meeting of their powers caused the very space around them to ripple.

"Bang!"

After a few minutes of intense stalemate, both the storm and the pillar of fire exhausted their energy and vanished in a muffled burst.

"Damn woman, leave the Warcraft Mountains!" the Amethyst Winged Lion King roared furiously. Its entire body glowed with gathering energy, causing countless amethysts to expand in the void and shine in the reflected sunlight.

"If the Lion King hands over the Purple Spirit Crystal, I will leave immediately," Yun Yun replied calmly, her expression solemn.

The Lion King's power was undeniable, and her normal sword strikes were ineffective against its protective amethyst armor.

The Amethyst Winged Lion King's strength was truly formidable.

"You humans are shameless, disguising your robbery as negotiation!" the Lion King spat in anger.

Yun Yun remained silent, her aura surging as multiple tornado vortices formed around her, each growing stronger by the moment.

She was ready to fight to the end.

"Very well!" The Amethyst Winged Lion King, enraged beyond reason, prepared to attack again.

Yun Yun's eyes sharpened, her sword's green light intensifying as she braced herself.

But then, the Lion King suddenly froze, its head snapping back in shock.

A roar, filled with monstrous anger, shook the forest.

"Damn human, you have accomplices?!"

The Amethyst Winged Lion King sensed the danger its offspring was in.

With a furious roar, it turned and flew towards the cave.

Yun Yun was momentarily startled by this unexpected turn of events, but she quickly regained her composure.

As a seasoned warrior, she wouldn't waste such a golden opportunity.

Taking advantage of the Lion King's distraction, she unleashed a crescent-shaped wind blade that sliced through the air, striking the Lion King and drawing blood.

"You insolent woman, how dare you harm me?!" the Lion King roared, its anger boiling over.

The amethyst light on its body surged, and energy condensed on the horn above its head.

The wind howled violently around them.

Yun Yun's expression turned grim as she unleashed dozens of powerful blue wind blades.

They intertwined and spiraled forward like a cylinder covered in blades, spinning at high speed.

"Amethyst Seal!"

"Splitting Wind Dance!"

The two powers collided, but the wind blades quickly disintegrated under the force of the purple beam.

Yun Yun coughed up blood as the beam struck her, and the Amethyst Winged Lion King swooped in, its claws poised to tear her apart.

"Wind Extreme, Meteoric Kill!"

At the last moment, Yun Yun's sword glowed with a deep blue light, and a tiny beam, no thicker than a finger, shot out, slicing through the Amethyst Winged Lion King's horn.

The beast howled in pain, giving Yun Yun the chance to dodge away.

The battle was over.

Xiao Ning, watching from a distance outside the cave, saw the green light fall and his expression changed.

His Ziyun Wings snapped open, and he hugged the forest canopy, quickly retreating.

Moments later, the Amethyst Winged Lion King burst into the cave.

Finding the place in ruins and its son gravely injured, it let out an earth-shaking roar.

"Find them! I want that woman torn to pieces!"

Meanwhile, at the edge of a waterfall, Xiao Ning took a deep breath and landed on the ground.

After catching his breath, he looked ahead.

There, floating down the river beneath the waterfall, was a beautiful woman in plain clothes.

Her eyes were closed, her cheeks pale-Yun Yun, gravely injured, drifted helplessly in the water.
