"Is this what it means for the spirit to leave the body? It feels pretty good!"
Having experienced the novelty of slaying enemies across thousands of miles, Xiao Ning smiled slightly and muttered to himself, "Let's see how much influence my wisp of divine sense has!"
On the other side, after Xiao Ning's figure disappeared, Xiao Yan felt a chill in his heart and shivered. Looking at the mysterious woman whose cultivation was sealed not far away and the heavily injured Purple Crystal Winged Lion King, his lips twitched.
Xiao Ning's skills, comparable to those of a sword immortal, filled Xiao Yan with awe and admiration. However, after his swift and decisive action, he left Xiao Yan with a mess, which made Xiao Yan secretly complain.
"Showing off and then running away, is that really a good thing?"
Looking at the scene before him, which resembled a disaster, Xiao Yan swallowed hard. Just then, the heavily injured Purple Crystal Winged Lion Beast, disregarding its injuries, ran away like a rabbit.
In the blink of an eye, they disappeared without a trace.
"Holy crap, this monster is way too cautious! It ran away as soon as Brother Ning left... Was it just pretending to be dead?"
Xiao Yan stared in disbelief at the disappearing dust in the distance, feeling as if his worldview had been shattered to pieces.
"A dignified Douhuang Realm magical beast, admitting defeat so quickly, how shameful! Coward! Bah!"
After complaining for a while, Xiao Yan turned around and went to the woman. He swallowed hard.
"Gurgle!"
The mysterious woman, who was sealed away, was sleeping soundly, revealing a delicate face. Her exquisite body was radiating an inexplicable power that attracted the attention of the little boy, Xiao Yan.
He felt a sudden dryness in his mouth and a surge of desire, longing to explore its secrets and to kiss its beauty.
Just as Xiao Yan was filled with excitement, the distant jungle faintly echoed with the roars of several magical beasts.
"Wow, that's so exciting!"
Like a bucket of cold water poured over his head, Xiao Yan immediately came to his senses, mumbled something, bent down, and picked up the woman.
His hands encircled her calves and the back of her head, forming a princess carry, and he immediately felt her tender and smooth skin, as soft as warm jade, a truly wonderful sensation.
Xiao Yan bit his tongue, forcibly suppressing the lingering desire in his heart. He carried the sleeping mysterious woman and then ran frantically towards the cave.
They ran wildly until they were within ten meters of the cave before they finally breathed a sigh of relief.
With the residual aura of the Amethyst Winged Lion King still lingering, ordinary magical beasts dared not approach, fearing that they would invade the territory of a superior magical beast and be subjected to bloody suppression.
Carrying the woman in his arms, Xiao Yan rushed into the cave, gently placed her on the stone platform, and sat down beside her, breathing heavily for a few moments.
During the break, Xiao Yan finally had time to observe this beautiful Dou Huang powerhouse up close and carefully examine her.
A sense of amazement gradually welled up in Xiao Yan's heart. It seemed no exaggeration to describe her with words like "beautiful features" and "skin as white as ice and bones as jade."
Moreover, what amazed Xiao Yan the most was the elegance and nobility she exuded, his gaze sweeping over her flawless, pretty face.
Xiao Yan's gaze slowly moved downwards, his brows furrowing slightly. He saw five terrifying claw marks on her chest below her jade-like neck, the blood staining her clothes crimson. She was unconscious, her delicate brows slightly furrowed, a hint of pain lingering on her cheeks.
Although this appearance was somewhat out of character for her, it was still quite charming and touching.
"By the way, Brother Ning seemed to have mentioned that she... is the sect leader of the Yunlan Sect?"
"I never imagined this woman would be so stunningly beautiful, a true beauty that could topple kingdoms. She's far more sexy than that young girl, Nalan Yanran!"
Xiao Yan frowned, recalling the words Xiao Ning had left behind before she departed.
He was torn between two conflicting thoughts: on one hand, the lewd desire to kiss her, and on the other, the taboo surrounding her identity.
Just as Xiao Yan hesitated, Yun Yun, who had been keeping her eyes closed, suddenly opened them. Her beautiful eyes flashed with a mixture of coldness and embarrassment as she stared intently at Xiao Yan.
"Oh, you're awake?"
Yun Yun suddenly woke up, which startled Xiao Yan. He quickly took a few steps back. He had witnessed the woman's ruthlessness before and was afraid that if she suddenly lost her temper and slapped him to death, wouldn't that be a wrongful death?
Seeing Xiao Yan step back, Yun Yun breathed a slight sigh of relief. Her eyes, which had been less cold towards Xiao Yan, were now filled with a sense of relief. However, when she was about to get up, she found that her whole body was numb.
It struggled slightly, but remained motionless.
"Damn bastard, he imprisoned me and then just left me alone!"
Yun Yun gritted her teeth and cursed in a low voice.
Xiao Yan squatted in the corner of the cave, looking at Yun Yun who couldn't move for a long time, his face full of innocence, and he had no intention of taking the initiative to help her.
After struggling for a long time, Yun Yun had no choice but to stop her futile struggles, turn her head slightly, and look at Xiao Yan, who was squatting on the ground drawing circles.
After carefully examining the latter, he didn't seem to find any danger in this rather handsome young man.
Yun Yun asked softly, "Young man, who are you?"
Her voice was melodious and pleasant to listen to, and perhaps because of her status, it carried an undeniable air of nobility.
Xiao Yan raised his head, stared at Yun Yun, blinked, pondered for a moment, and replied, "My name is Zhang Fei. And who are you?"
He made up a name off the top of his head, pretending to be a naive fledgling who had never seen the world, and gave a simple, honest smile.
"Zhang Fei, right? Could you do me a favor and deliver a message to the Yunlan Sect? I will surely reward you handsomely!"
The woman parted her lips slightly, but did not reveal her identity.
Xiao Yan looked troubled and hesitated, saying, "This... it's not that I don't want to help you, but Yunlan Sect is hundreds of miles away from here. It would take at least five or six days to go back and forth. You can't move, and I'm afraid that you won't be able to hold out until the people from Yunlan Sect come to rescue you, and you'll be eaten clean by the demonic beasts!"
Hearing Xiao Yan's words, Yun Yun was taken aback. Then, she shook her head, thinking to herself, "How many years has it been? No one has dared to say such things to me?"
However, what the young man said made sense, and Yun Yun frowned slightly, falling into deep thought.
