Chapter 336 Deception, Deception~
With Yun Yun by their side and Li Muyang joining in the fun, the Amethyst Winged Lion King arrived at its cave. Although the lion didn't understand human relationships, it still knew how to enjoy itself, and it had set up the cave quite nicely.
Not only were there two low-level magical beasts guarding the entrance, but the interior was also quite spacious. The walls of the cave were decorated with glowing purple crystals, providing ample light to the cave and improving the cultivation environment. The fighting spirit inside was very suitable for the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King to cultivate, and it was also comfortable to stay there.
Upon arriving at the cave, the Amethyst Winged Lion King first settled Li Muyang and Yun Yun in an open area, then went into a secluded room, saying he was going to retrieve the Amethyst Cloud Crystal.
After watching the other person leave, Yun Yun cautiously asked Li Muyang, "Senior, it didn't run away, did it?"
Li Muyang was looking around when he heard the question and shook his head: "No, it can't get away. It's just that there's not only Purple Cloud Crystal inside, but also the accompanying Purple Crystal Source. It probably wants to keep it for its offspring, so it's keeping an eye on us."
"Oh." Seeing this, Yun Yun didn't ask any further questions. The Purple Cloud Crystal was enough for her needs. Although the accompanying Purple Crystal Source might be more effective, if Li Muyang refused to help, it would still be dangerous for her to defeat the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King on her own.
Let's resolve this peacefully if possible. Yun Yun didn't want to leave Li Muyang with the impression that he was greedy. Most importantly, the two of them had only met for the first time and were not familiar with each other at all!
A moment later, the Amethyst Winged Lion King came out with some Amethyst Cloud Crystals and handed them to Yun Yun: "Human, we're even now. Please leave here as soon as possible!"
Seeing this, Yun Yun didn't waste any words. While preparing to leave, she asked Li Muyang, "Senior, are you going to Wutan City? Do you need me to accompany you?"
Li Muyang waved his hand: "It's nothing. I just want to find an eighth-grade alchemist to become my apprentice. I've encountered some problems in alchemy and would like to ask for his advice."
"What?!" x2
Both the man and the lion were utterly astonished! An eighth-grade alchemist? In Wutan City? Are you kidding me?
Yun Yun was still surprised that an eighth-grade alchemist had appeared in Wutan City, but the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King suddenly realized something, and its mind raced! It had finally seen the light! Even if it didn't understand human relationships, it understood! This powerful figure before it was a great opportunity!
"Please take me in, senior!" The Amethyst Winged Lion King immediately slid to his knees: "I was very rude just now! I hope you will not take offense, senior. I am only willing to follow you and serve you!"
Li Muyang raised an eyebrow and said casually, "It's not that I don't want to take you... a sixth-tier magical beast... to me, you probably wouldn't even qualify as a errand boy, you'd only be fit to be kept as a pet..."
Then, he released his aura.
Along with several divine beasts, the Bodhi tree, several spirit beasts, elves, the overlord, and the Night Parade of a Hundred Ghosts...
The Amethyst Winged Lion King was petrified!
It found itself seemingly unable to even match the weakest breath!
I'm talking to you, Onion Soldier!
Haha, if my brother Cong were to launch a meteor attack now, even Yunshan probably wouldn't dare to take it head-on!
Yun Yun almost burst out laughing, then felt a pang of emotion. The Amethyst Winged Lion King, whom she had struggled to defeat, was being looked down upon even for running errands in front of this mysterious powerhouse.
There's no way around it. Even though it's a Cong Youbing, with Li Muyang's resources supporting it, its strength has improved by leaps and bounds. At the very least, it still can't compare to ordinary sixth-tier magical beasts on the Dou Qi Continent.
The main reason is that Shennong Beast has the means to purify the bloodline of demon beasts. Therefore, demon beasts that value bloodline highly can cultivate quickly with the help of Shennong Beast. Although the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King is a tyrant in the Demon Beast Mountain Range, it is just cannon fodder in the entire Dou Qi Continent.
As for Li Muyang... he might only be able to encounter a Dou Sheng now, and he'll need to put in some effort to deal with him seriously.
"Alright, I won't discourage you anymore. How about this, you probably just want me to help you refine that companion amethyst source into a pill, right?" Li Muyang asked leisurely. He refused to accept this lion because he had too high standards!
If it had been a little earlier, Li Muyang might have accepted it, but now it's better to forget about it.
The Amethyst Winged Lion King lowered its head somewhat embarrassed after Li Muyang exposed its thoughts; monsters are just straightforward.
“If it’s just about alchemy, I plan to find a master. There’s a high chance I’ll have a senior or junior brother. His cultivation level is probably still weak, not even a Dou Zhe yet. If possible, you can protect him for three years, and I’ll refine pills for you!” Li Muyang said meaningfully, “Trust me, you won’t lose out!”
"If you're worried about your child, you can bring them along!"
Clearly, the Amethyst Winged Lion King was somewhat tempted by Li Muyang's words.
First of all, the Amethyst Winged Lion King trusted Old Li's words quite a bit, because Li Muyang possessed so many auras from magical beasts (in its opinion)! And each one was stronger than the last! In addition, given the strength Li Muyang had displayed, there was absolutely no reason for him to lie to it!
If Li Muyang were to become an apprentice of an eighth-grade alchemist, let alone his junior brother who hadn't even reached the level of a Dou Zhe, even an ordinary person would be willing to protect him for three years! Who wouldn't be happy to be associated with an eighth-grade alchemist? There are only a handful of eighth-grade alchemists in the entire Dou Qi Continent!
Don't be fooled by the fact that the Amethyst Winged Lion King is a sixth-tier magical beast. Compared to an eighth-grade alchemist... there's absolutely no comparison!
Without other opportunities, the Amethyst Winged Lion King would only ever reach the sixth rank. But an eighth-grade alchemist, even a scrap of material, could be enough to propel the Amethyst Winged Lion King to the next level! It's a sure-fire deal!
“Ziyun is willing to go!” The Amethyst Winged Lion King quickly made his decision and immediately bowed down!
Seeing this, Li Muyang didn't waste any words. He told the Amethyst Winged Lion King to take care of his own affairs, and then they would set off together.
Yun Yun wasn't in a hurry to leave. Her disciple was probably still on his way to Wutan City, so there was little point in her going back. Besides, an opportunity to make friends with an eighth-grade alchemist was right in front of her! How could she possibly give it up!
It would be better to follow Li Muyang to Wutan City. Firstly, you might meet your own disciple, and secondly, you might even form a good relationship with an eighth-grade alchemist.
It was... A possibility that Yun Yun herself dared not believe flashed through her mind: the one Li Muyang had mentioned, who might be his junior or senior brother, and who was currently not even a Dou Zhe... Could it be...?
Thinking of this, Yun Yun couldn't help but smile bitterly. If that were really the case, then...
"It's exactly what you think." Li Muyang, who was meditating with his eyes closed, said leisurely and teasingly, "The kid I'm talking about is Xiao Yan from the Xiao family, the fiancé of Sect Master Yun's disciple."
Yun Yun trembled and looked at Li Muyang in shock. When? She hadn't even introduced herself yet.
"Sect Master Yun, although my appearance here was accidental, I came here specifically for you after witnessing your fight!" Li Muyang slowly opened his eyes and said expressionlessly, "Since I'm going to become your disciple, I should at least find out about my future teacher's current situation, right?"
"Correspondingly, I have also done some investigation into Xiao Yan, who is most likely my junior brother and senior brother, as well as some of the situations around him."
"...What does Senior mean...?" Yun Yun asked solemnly. With such a powerful figure in the picture, the marriage between her disciple, Nalan Yanran, and Xiao Yan was indeed a bit uncertain.
Li Muyang waved his hand: "I can't interfere in this kind of thing. Sect Leader Yun, my suggestion is that they handle their own affairs, but as elders, we must take the blame! We will definitely help bear any consequences and responsibilities!"
Yun Yun gave a wry smile: "What you say is very true, senior. Yun Yun understands."
"These are all minor matters." Li Muyang looked at Yun Yun, who was deep in thought, and continued, "The most crucial issue is your Yunlan Sect! I heard that your former sect leader, Yun Shan, seems to have been in contact with the Central Continent Soul Hall?"
"This..." Yun Yun looked bewildered; she really didn't know this news!
"Alas! Elder Yun is so foolish!" Li Muyang sighed with a pained expression, "The Soul Hall is a notorious organization in Zhongzhou! They capture people's souls and devour them for cultivation! This kind of cruel and evil cultivation method is despised by all living beings! In Zhongzhou, everyone hates to kill it! There should never be any contact or cooperation with such a force!"
Yun Yun turned pale with shock at Li Muyang's words; she knew absolutely nothing about this! In a moment of panic, she exclaimed, "Senior, do you have any evidence? If you don't have evidence, you shouldn't speak recklessly!"
Li Muyang shrugged: "I've only heard about it so far, but Sect Leader Yun must take this seriously! The Soul Palace is no trustworthy partner. Cooperating with them is like asking a tiger for its skin! In the end, we'll only be devoured!"
Yun Yun took a deep breath and solemnly promised, "Please rest assured, senior, I understand! I will definitely not allow my teacher to do such a foolish thing!"
Yun Yun understood perfectly well that Li Muyang was giving her a warning! Whether the Soul Hall was as evil as Li Muyang claimed was no longer important. What mattered was that if her teacher had indeed had contact with or even cooperated with the Soul Hall, then she would inevitably become an enemy of Li Muyang!
Judging from the strength and influence Li Muyang has displayed, Yun Yun is absolutely determined not to let Yun Shan and the Yunlan Sect die! What Soul Palace! Can they suddenly produce a group of Dou Zong or Dou Zun level magical beasts? And there's also the unfathomable Li Muyang!
"By the way, I don't know your name, senior?" Yun Yun suddenly realized that she didn't know Li Muyang's name.
Li Muyang awkwardly touched his nose, having been so busy fooling Yun Yun that he forgot he hadn't introduced himself yet.
"Li Muyang." A little embarrassed, but in order to maintain his masterly demeanor, Li Muyang could only respond in a slightly aloof manner, and then immerse himself in cultivation again.
Hmm, this alchemy technique is really interesting. I'll study it some more.
Yun Yun didn't bother Li Muyang anymore. She had learned too much information at once and needed to sort it out. Besides, she had just fought with the Amethyst Winged Lion King and was not completely unscathed. She needed to recover first!
