In Battle Through the Heavens, lying down makes you stronger.

Chapter 137 Lion King, I thank you properly!

Xiao Ran asked with a smile,

"What, doesn't it seem like it? I didn't practice before just because I didn't have the medicinal herbs, but that doesn't mean I don't know how."

Yun Yun nodded happily.

She had always known that her teacher was working hard to break through to the Dou Zong realm in the back mountain, but she had never thought of refining a Breakthrough Pill to help her teacher break through.

It's not that I hadn't thought about it, but there are no seventh-grade alchemists in the entire Jiama Empire, or even in several surrounding empires.

Rather than hoping to break through to the next level, it's more practical to go into seclusion and cultivate to achieve a breakthrough.

Xiao Ran was willing to help refine seventh-grade pills.

Yun Yun gratefully turned around and hugged Xiao Ran.

"Thank you, little man."

Xiao Ran pulled Yun Yun's slender waist into his arms and said with a smile,

"We are husband and wife, there's no need for thanks. But I really dislike being called a 'little man' by you. Whether I'm 'little' or not, didn't you know last night?"

Yun Yun blushed and lowered her eyes shyly.

Last night, although she fought very bravely and perfectly demonstrated the strength of a female fighting queen.

But she was, after all, a woman, and her physical strength was inevitably somewhat lacking.

She was just angry that Xiao Ran was always attracting attention from other women, so she wanted to give him a warning.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Ran still betrayed him in the end.

However, upon hearing Xiao Ran's words, Yun Yun felt both grateful and appreciative.

She knew that Xiao Ran would not lie to her.

"I'll talk to the teacher when I get back, but if the teacher insists on..."

Xiao Ran smiled slightly.

"Yun'er, remember this: the reason I'm willing to help is because you are my woman, not because of anyone in your Yunlan Sect."

"The force your teacher is currently cooperating with is an extremely evil organization on the Dou Qi Continent. Once you join it, your life and death will be controlled by others."

"If you don't want your teacher to become a puppet like that in the future, try to minimize their contact with him."

"If he insists on going astray, then I will only take you away."

Yun Yun remained silent for a long time after hearing this.

Xiao Ran reached out and ran his hand through Yun Yun's long, black hair, feeling the smooth strands of hair under his fingertips.

Yun Yun pondered for a long time before finally letting out a soft sigh.

"Don't worry, I'll definitely talk to the teacher when we get back!"

Instead, his expression turned serious, and he said...

"But you said it's an evil organization on the Dou Qi Continent. My Yunlan Sect is only located in the Jiama Empire; I'm afraid we're no match for them!"

Xiao Ran gave Yun Yun a thumbs up.

"As expected of the Sect Master of Yunlan Sect! This keen insight is truly extraordinary!"

Yun Yun rolled her eyes at Xiao Ran.

"Stop saying all this now. What if they turn on us?"

Xiao Ran smiled and said,

"Don't worry, the reason they found your teacher in the Jiama Empire is mainly to get him to help that organization do some dirty work."

"They dare not show themselves rashly in the Jiama Empire or even the entire Northwest Continent, otherwise more powerful figures would have warned them."

Yun Yun was very clever and immediately understood that even that evil organization was being checked and balanced.

However, she did not ask Xiao Ran what that organization was.

If Xiao Ran wanted her to know, he would tell her.

The two spent another tender moment together.

Xiao Ran took out the ingredients and barbecue grill from his storage ring.

After enjoying a delicious meal with Yunyun, I waved goodbye to her.

After seeing Yun Yun off, Xiao Ran looked at the sky with a sense of loss.

She shook her head slightly. A brief separation is for a long-lasting stay!

Immediately,

Flaming wings appeared behind them, and they flapped their wings back in the direction they had come from.

When Xiao Ran returned to the entrance of the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame cave.

From afar, one could see Xiao Yan craning his neck, looking around.

After he got close,

Xiao Yan, with a gossipy look on his face, stepped forward.

"Ran-ge, was that Ran-sao last night too?"

"Where did you go last night? Why did it take so long?"

"Also, where is Sister Ran? Why didn't I see her come back with you?"

Xiao Ran glared at Xiao Yan.

"Why are you asking so many questions, you little kid?"

Xiao Yan curled his lip.

"Tch! Don't think I don't know anything!"

Xiaoqing happily stepped forward,

"Young Master, you're back."

Xiao Ran smiled and nodded, then pinched Xiao Qing's little nose.

At this moment, the Amethyst Winged Lion King, standing to the side, said...

"Human, last night I used a trick to help you keep your female human companion. How will you thank me?"

Xiao Ran chuckled and stared intently at it.

"The Lion King is right. I really should thank you properly. Come with me!"

The Amethyst Winged Lion King felt a chill run down its spine under Xiao Ran's gaze and shook its head repeatedly, asking,

"Human, what's wrong with you? Why are you staring at me like that?"

Xiao Qing tilted her head, looking at Xiao Ran with a puzzled expression.

Xiao Ran patted Xiao Qing's head and said,

"Xiao Qing, wait here for me. I need to say a few words to the Lion King."

Then, with a flap of his fiery wings, he spoke to the Amethyst Winged Lion King.

"Lion King, come with me."

Looking at Xiao Ran's eyes, which seemed to want to devour a lion.

The Amethyst Winged Lion King shook his head repeatedly and subconsciously took two steps back.

"Human, what do you want to do? I swear I will obey, even to the death!"

"Really?"

Xiao Ran chuckled, and a ball of white flame rose in his hand.

"Lion King, I just want to say a few words to thank you properly. You wouldn't refuse to give me that much face, would you?"

The Amethyst Winged Lion King's cheek twitched.

"Hehe, just say what you want, it's no big deal."

Then, looking at Xiao Yan and Xiao Qing, he said...

"This human is too kind; I am truly flattered!"

As he spoke, he flapped his wings and followed Xiao Ran.

Soon, under the puzzled gazes of Xiao Yan and Xiao Qing, Xiao Ran and the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King were reduced to two small black dots on the horizon.

In the end, they disappeared without a trace.

Xiao Yan asked, puzzled.

"Xiaoqing, do you know what Ran-ge took that lion king to do?"

Xiaoqing shook her head.

"I don't know either."

Xiao Yan sighed, "Sigh! I'm still waiting for Ran-ge to come back so I can discuss the matter of the strange fire with him!"

At that very moment,

Suddenly, the mournful howl of the Amethyst Winged Lion King echoed from afar.

"Oh~ Oh~ I was wrong."

"Awooo! I was wrong, human, please stop hitting me!"

"How dare you, human! If you strike me again, I will... let you hit me as you please."

"..."

Hearing the screams of the Amethyst Winged Lion King, Xiao Yan subconsciously shivered.

Even in the scorching desert, a chill ran down my spine.

He shook his head and sighed.

"What terrible law did the Lion King break? It sounds absolutely tragic!"

Xiaoqing, meanwhile, gazed at the distant sky, lost in thought.

……

Stone Desert City, the base of the Ironclad Mercenary Group.

The Amethyst Winged Lion King's two eyes, each the size of a cartwheel, had narrowed into slits.

When he limped into the camp, it aroused concern and curiosity among many mercenaries.

They all wondered what kind of formidable enemy the Third Regiment Commander had encountered while out for a walk.

Even such a powerful magical beast was beaten like this.

Moreover, this lion beast is so loyal! Even though it was beaten up like this, the Third Regiment Commander and the others didn't have a single scratch on their faces!
