Fighting Against the Odds: I Am the Right Path

Even at this point, Yunzhi still chose the latter between her original intention and responsibility.

Although this choice made Yao Chen very angry, he also felt deeply regretful.

Since Yunzhi still made this choice after doing that, Yao Chen could only choose to respect her.

It was a new day, and when the sun was rising, Xiao Yan was still asleep.

Outside the cave, Yunzhi stood under the waterfall with his eyes tightly closed. His consciousness was concentrated in the purple seal on his chest, and his fighting spirit was gradually rising.

Finally, Yunzhi suddenly opened her eyes.

"break!"

With a shout, the purple seal on Yunzhi's chest suddenly shattered, and the fighting spirit in Yunzhi's body that had been suppressed for several days suddenly burst out, completely restoring her original strength.

Dou Huang, returns!

Feeling the majestic fighting spirit in her body, Yunzhi looked at the gradually rising sun, a trace of loneliness flashed in her eyes.

It's time to leave

Yun Zhi had lived here with Xiao Yan for a short period of time because her fighting spirit had not yet recovered, but now that her strength has been restored, she has no reason to stay here any longer.

Not only does Yanran need the purple spirit crystal to refine the elixir, but more importantly, Yunzhi herself is afraid to stay here any longer.

She was very scared, scared that she would not be able to control herself, scared that she would give up her identity, her responsibilities, and confess to Xiao Yan what happened that day.

Yun Zhi knew deep down that what happened that day was a heavy burden for both herself and Xiao Yan.

Let this matter be buried forever.

Yunzhi strengthened her heart, and the wings of fighting spirit appeared behind her, flying decisively towards the distance.

However, after flying less than a hundred meters, Yunzhi stopped in mid-air, hesitated for a long time, and finally returned to the cave.

Folding the wings of fighting spirit, Yun Zhi came to the stone bed, looked down at Xiao Yan's honest sleeping face, and couldn't help but think of what she had done that day.

The heart that had calmed down was stirred up again.

I can't help but feel sad, regretful and reluctant.

If I could lower my status a little.

If only his status could be raised.

If I were not the teacher that Yanran respected.

If he wasn't the boy Yanran liked.

Shouldn't we two just have to worry so much?

There was a flash of sadness in Yun Zhi's eyes. She stretched out her slender hand and gently stroked Xiao Yan's face.

His heart was trembling as he stared at Xiao Yan's lips.

After a long time, Yunzhi made a decision in her heart.

This is the last time.

Yun Zhi slowly leaned down, lifted her hair, and slowly moved her face towards Xiao Yan.

If he wakes up, I will confess everything, both my feelings for him and what happened that day.

If he doesn't wake up, then I will completely stop thinking about him. Forever.

Thinking of this, Yun Zhi's lips finally touched Xiao Yan's lips, recalling the touch that made her intoxicated that day.

Deep down, I was hoping that Xiao Yan would wake up, but at the same time, I was worried about Xiao Yan waking up.

However, the kiss lasted for several seconds and Xiao Yan still showed no signs of waking up.

Perhaps it was because yesterday's training was too tiring that Xiao Yan was unaware of this tenderness.

Yunzhi felt deeply lost in her heart.

The lips that were embracing each other slowly parted.

Looking at Xiao Yan's sleeping face, Yun Zhi let out a bitter smile.

Maybe we really shouldn't be together.

Yunzhi turned around and walked to the stone table, leaving a letter and the Heart of the Sea Armor that she had been wearing.

And then, I left without any regrets.

After Yun Zhi left, Yao Chen's figure emerged from the ring. He looked at the cave entrance, then glanced at Xiao Yan who was sleeping soundly, and sighed deeply.

Be self-aware, control your desires, and take responsibility seriously.

Although they are all positive qualities, they have formed many shackles between Xiao Yan and Yun Zhi, preventing the two people who are in love with each other from taking a step further.

It's really, really sad.

On the other side, after leaving the cave, Yunzhi did not leave the Warcraft Mountains immediately, but came to the entrance of the cave of the Amethyst Winged Lion King.

The Amethyst Winged Lion King, who had just awakened, stood at the entrance of the cave, looking at the Yunzhi flying towards it, his brows slightly frowned.

Now that the seal has been lifted and the purple spirit crystal you want has been obtained, why does this woman still come here?

"Lion King." Yun Zhi floated in the air, looking directly at the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King, and asked, "Besides the Transformation Pill, do you want anything else in exchange for the Purple Spirit Crystal that day?"

Hearing Yunzhi's question, the Amethyst Winged Lion King frowned even more tightly.

Flying here just to ask this?

"No more." The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King bared his teeth and said, "All I need now is the Transformation Pill."

"Really? I understand."

Yunzhi murmured in a low voice, then looked at the Amethyst Winged Lion King and said seriously.

"I promise you that I will do my best to find the Transformation Pill. Once I get it, I will send it to you immediately to thank you for giving me the Purple Spirit Crystal."

"what?"

The Amethyst Winged Lion King was stunned for a moment, then came to his senses, and his dislike for Yun Zhi subsided a little.

"Okay~ Then I'll just wait without any expectations~"

The Amethyst Winged Lion King laughed loudly, and Yunzhi immediately clasped his fists in salute.

"Farewell."

After saying that, Yunzhi turned and left the Monster Mountain Range without looking back.

As for why she did this, Yunzhi couldn't explain it.

After all, the Purple Spirit Crystal has been obtained. Even if this guarantee is not made, the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King will not pursue the Purple Spirit Crystal again.

After much thought, Yunzhi only got one answer.

Perhaps, he didn't want to lose face in front of Xiao Yan because of anything.

Chapter 108 Taking the Companion Amethyst Source

"Hmm~~~~~"

Inside the cave, Xiao Yan sat up slowly and stretched out lazily.

He had been undergoing high-intensity training these days, and the two time periods every day when Xiao Yan felt most relaxed were sleeping and waking up.

"Go wash your face and get ready for training~"

Xiao Yan pressed his neck, turned over and jumped off the stone bed, then glanced at the two objects placed on the stone table.

"That is?"

Xiao Yan raised his eyebrows and walked to the stone table to look at the two things.

A letter and a light blue inner armor.

And the inner armor.

Xiao Yan picked up the inner armor and couldn't help but sniff it, muttering to himself.

“It tastes like Sister Yunzhi”

As soon as he said this, Xiao Yan slapped his forehead hard, his expression full of embarrassment.

It's over. I'm really becoming more and more like Yao Senior.

Just as Xiao Yan shook off the rude thought in his mind, Yao Chen also appeared from the ring.

"This is the Heart of the Sea Armor, made from a strange metal produced in the body of the sixth-level magical beast Three-tailed Blue Whale, and has extremely high defense." Yao Chen gently pinched the white jade-like chin and said softly: "Let's not talk about whether it is sold on the market. If it is really sold, it should be able to fetch about a million gold coins."

"A million gold coins?!"

Xiao Yan was startled, then calmed down, picked up the letter next to him, and read its contents.

[Xiao Yan, please forgive me for leaving without saying goodbye. Don't worry about me. My strength has been completely restored.]

[These days of living with you make me very happy. Thanks to you, I can also let go of my status and enjoy the peace and quiet. 】

[If it weren't for you that day, I would have died in front of the Amethyst Winged Lion King Cave. You have been protecting me during these days when my power was sealed. The Heart of the Sea Armor is mine. Just accept it and treat it as a reward. Don't refuse it unless you want to make me angry.]

【There is one more thing I am very sorry about.】

[My real name is not Yunzhi. As for my true identity, you will know it when we meet next time.]

[So before that, let me keep it a secret~]

【Goodbye, Xiao Yan. 】

Looking at the beautiful handwriting on the letter paper, Xiao Yan's eyes gradually became depressed, revealing a deep loneliness.

"Let's go"

Although Xiao Yan said that there would be no future with Yun Zhi, he kept reminding himself of this in his heart.

But Xiao Yan still couldn't deny that Yun Zhi was indeed the first woman who made him feel good about her from the bottom of his heart.

However, Xiao Yan also understood that given the difference in their status, they would be separated sooner or later.

Xiao Yan just felt regretful from the bottom of his heart that he was not able to say goodbye to Yun Zhi in person.

As for Yun Zhi's true identity, Xiao Yan didn't care, and she didn't feel unhappy about hiding her real name.

No matter who Yun Zhi is, in Xiao Yan's mind, she will always be the gentle and upright Sister Yun Zhi.

"Xiao Yanzi, do you regret it?"

Yao Chen teased from the side, Xiao Yan folded the letter and put it back into the envelope, chuckling.

"I can't say I regret it, I just feel a little lonely. After all, I have gradually gotten used to Sister Yunzhi's company these days."

Xiao Yan put the envelope back into his ring, and then looked at the Heart of the Sea Armor on the stone table.

If it were the same as in the past, Xiao Yan would definitely keep such a valuable item and return it when he saw Yun Zhi again in the future.

But perhaps Yun Zhi had guessed that Xiao Yan was planning to do this, and she had already blocked Xiao Yan's plan in the letter. Not only did she give the reason for the gift, but she also stated the consequences if Xiao Yan refused.

This also indirectly reflects how well Yun Zhi understands Xiao Yan.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yan couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

If his status could be higher and sister Yunzhi's status could be lower, he would definitely not restrain himself and would actively and hard pursue Yunzhi.

But if it is just if after all, too much fantasy will only add to your troubles.

"Okay! Don't think about that anymore!"

Xiao Yan temporarily put away the Heart of the Sea Armor and began to move his body.

"It's time to continue today's training!"

"Wait, Xiao Yanzi."

Just as Xiao Yan was about to leave the cave, Yao Chen called him and Xiao Yan looked at Yao Chen in confusion.

"Senior Yao, what's wrong?"

"Take out the Companion Purple Crystal Source. Didn't you fail to absorb it in the past few days because Yunzhi was here? Now that she's gone, use that thing."

"Yes!"

Xiao Yan suddenly realized that if Yao Chen hadn’t reminded him, he would have really forgotten it!
