Chapter 30: Smooth Plan, Smooth Result

--- Chapter 29 ---

Amethyst Winged Lion has been on guard in the last few days.

The 6-rank magical beast actively guarded the area of his den, watching over if those shameless humans dared to steal his treasure again. He looked back at his home and checked a purple crystal above thick dry grass.

"Hmm, rain is forming in the sky?"

"The weather was just fine a moment ago."

A formation of black clouds gathered above the Amethyst Winged Lion's den, swirling in the sky ominously. It was a weird phenomenon, but not too far from reality because this world is changing quickly.

"Is there a heaven and earth treasure growing under my nest? No, that can't be. I didn't sense anything miraculous in my whole life."

Amethyst Winged Lion yawned and suddenly sensed an abrupt change in the wind in the area. He raised from the ground and walked out of the den, seeing a familiar female human.

She silently stood while wielding her sword, seemingly waiting for him to come out.

"Grrr... Human."

Yun Yun stared at the Amethyst Winged Lion calmly and replied, "I'm here to retrieve the purple crystal essence. I do not wish to fight you, but you won't agree no matter what."

Amethyst Winged Lion frowned and spat indifferently, "Hateful female human. How dare you ask for my treasure." This chapter is updated by nov(e)(l)biin.com

"I couldn't take your life last time, but now... I'd kill you quickly."

Yun Yun lifted her sword and commented, "You used dirty tricks against me last time. You can't use it twice."

Rain is pouring from the sky, and the Amethyst Winged Lion weakened slightly, the 6-rank magical beast still on the same level as Yun Yun. Only purple flame becomes arguably a little worse than usual.

ROAR!

Amethyst Winged Lion charged forward and swung his claw at Yun Yun, creating a sharp whistling sound.

"Wind Sword." Yun Yun watched this and waved her sword.

Clank!

"We are almost there." Baek Ain observed the fight from afar.

He hid between rocks and glanced at the cloudy sky, timing everything perfectly. He moved his gaze to the top of Amethyst Winged Lion's den and lifted his right hand.

At the top of the den, "strangely." shaped like a crooked pyramid, Lan Rou nodded her eyes and started to create a big enough hole for her to enter and run.

Excluding Yun Yun, Lan Rou's speed is more stable than Baek Ain's.

While Baek Ain won with explosive jumps, Lan Rou's mastery of the silent shadow steps is so high that Amethyst Winged Lion shouldn't be able to sense nor hear her.

Lan Rou also consumed the extreme fire resistance pill Baek Ain made for this scenario in case they got dragged into the fight with the Amethyst Winged Lion.

"Done." She confidently reported.

Baek Ain smiled and returned, "We are almost there. This operation is close to its climax."

As the Amethyst Winged Lion went on a rampage, Yun Yun prepared a finishing move and infused her Dou Qi into the sword. She gave the 6-rank magical beast a last look and swayed her sword down.

"Extreme Wind Fallen Massacre..."

Yun Yun's calm voice echoed throughout the magical beast mountain as extreme wind pressure descended from the sky. Fallen stars seemed to drop, creating several straight lines.

BOOOOOOOM!!

Roar!

The mountain shook violently, and Amethyst Winged Lion roared before falling miserably.

"M-My child..." Amethyst Winged Lion closed his eyes.

Yun Yun landed on the ground and huffed because that last attack consumed a decent amount of her Dou Qi. She shuddered instinctively and turned around as fast as possible.

"MY CHILD!!"

ROAR!

"Assisted Parry." Baek Ain instantly appeared before the half-dead Amethyst Winged Lion and parried the claw with his tanto.

CLANK! BAM!

The claw warded off, and Baek Ain kicked a sharp-looking spear with his leg.

[Super Jump 10x]

The spear combusted with brown flame and pierced through the weakened 6-rank magical beast's head.

[Ding! You have killed a 6-rank magical beast]

Cough!

Baek Ain spat blood from his mouth and mumbled, "Even with assisted parrying, I couldn't ward off the damage completely..."

Assisted Parry is why Parry(B+) has a cooldown, allowing Baek Ain to ward off an attack properly. Of course, he could do it manually, but the outcome is not good.

He is still perfecting this skill, after all.

"Are you okay?" Yun Yun asked worriedly.

Baek Ain waved his hand to dismiss her worry and responded, "Just a scratch. We have another problem."

"How do we split this treasure?"
