56: Chapter 55 Yin-Yang Reversal Gu! The Inner World!

Day three of the Survival Stage, the fourth hour.

Half an hour had passed since he held hands with Zisha,

and Lin Wan finally spotted his first Tier 3 Chaotic Beast.

"No wonder Old Mu only killed ten Tier 3 beasts in a whole day. It turns out Tier 3s are so hard to find!"

"But I remember there was a Tier 3 entrenched where Xiao Qing was locked up. I can go check it out when the time comes!"

"As for now..."

Lin Wan looked down from the sky,

only to see a winged tiger, its wings covered in purple ice crystals, roaring furiously atop the oasis jungle.

Lin Wan understood its roars.

Someone had formed a contract with its daughter and stolen its Purple Source Crystal, which was why it was so enraged.

"This Trial-taker is really bold, daring to provoke a Tier 3!"

[Purple-Gold Winged Tiger King]

[Rank: Tier 3 (Continental-class)]

[Combat Power: 1,533,251]

[Evaluation: Born in the Western Region of Chaotic Beasts, he was accompanied by his childhood sweetheart, a female Golden Winged Tiger. However, the good times did not last. During his growth phase, when he was at his weakest, a Purple-Gold Winged Lion King appeared, shattered the peace, and snatched away his childhood sweetheart.]

[Faced with the threat, his childhood sweetheart voluntarily became the beloved consort of the Purple-Gold Winged Lion King to protect him from harm. Grief-stricken, he repeatedly increased his strength to defeat the Winged Lion King and reclaim his childhood sweetheart, but every attempt ended in failure.]

[He watched as his childhood sweetheart's eyes went from disappointment, to coldness, and finally to dazed indifference, completely forgetting his existence.]

[His heart was like dead ashes, until one day, a Red Crystal Winged Tiger King descended from the sky to his side, offering to take him as her disciple.]

[From that moment on, his life felt as if it had been salvaged from the depths of the sea.]

["Someone salvaged from the sea by her couldn't possibly be a waste, right?"]

[The Purple-Gold Winged Tiger advanced courageously and rapidly, eventually becoming the Purple-Gold Winged Tiger King. He also maintained an ambiguous relationship with his master, which eventually blossomed into true love.]

[But not long after, devastating news arrived.]

[It turned out that the Red Crystal Winged Tiger King knew about his past. Keeping him in the dark, she had secretly gone to seek revenge on the Purple-Gold Winged Lion King. Ultimately, both the tiger and the lion suffered heavy losses. When she returned, she passed away after uttering only a few brief words.]

[From that moment, the King's heart died. For the Red-Gold Winged Tiger King had left him a child, and that child no longer had a mother.]

[The child was very sensible and knew how to make him happy, but the more she did so, the guiltier he felt. He felt that nothing he did could make up to her. Until one day, a swarm of Gu insects broke into his cave and lured him out. By the time he returned, he had fallen victim to a classic diversion tactic—his daughter had been taken away and contracted...]

[Description: A rampaging Earth-attribute Chaotic Beast. It is highly recommended not to provoke him at this moment. Of course, this warning does not apply to smurfers!]

This was the first time Lin Wan had seen such a padded evaluation, but the cosmic will was indeed quite amusing.

Love and hatred among Chaotic Beasts?

And those Gu insects...

"The Gu Refining Civilization..."

Lin Wan murmured softly.

He opened the combat power leaderboard to check who the strongest person in the Gu Refining Civilization was.

[013: Fang Yuan / Human Gu Clan]

[Combat Power: 8,321]

[Affiliated Civilization: Gu Refining Civilization]

"Holy crap, what's going on? How did he rise so fast?"

Lin Wan was shocked.

Even the EX-grade Ye Fan was still lingering around the hundreds. When he first looked, this guy was only in the nine-hundreds, and now he had rushed all the way to 13th?

Could it be some talent that accelerates growth in the early stages?

This certainly woke him up.

Lin Wan licked his lips.

[Target "Fang Yuan is the one who lured away the Purple-Gold Winged Tiger King", Difficulty: 1-Star, Completed]

[Rewards settling...]

[Congratulations to the host for obtaining: Warm Brown Sugar Ginger Tea * 1]

It was indeed true. It seemed he could hold off on killing this winged tiger for now and see what happens.

At this moment, relying on the origin of his bloodline, the Purple-Gold Winged Tiger King was guided to search for his daughter.

He maintained an enraged, ferocious expression until he finally felt that he was getting closer and closer to his daughter.

But right then, a lion's roar resounded in all directions.

Lin Wan understood it.

"Purple-Gold Winged Tiger King, you've crossed the boundary!"

The Purple-Gold Winged Lion King roared,

followed by a Golden Winged Tiger Beast.

The Golden Winged Tiger Beast walked unsteadily, its gaze filled with resentment as it looked at the Purple-Gold Winged Tiger King.

"Give me back my daughter!!"

The moment they met, they were at each other's throats, a clash of both old and new grudges.

"This Fang Yuan is quite interesting. Does he want to pit the lion and tiger against each other so he can reap the benefits as a bystander?"

Two Tier 3 Chaotic Beasts. Without Lin Wan's interference, Fang Yuan indeed could have rushed to second place on the leaderboard. He has quite an ambition!

He wondered where Fang Yuan got such confidence.

In Lin Wan's information, the Purple-Gold Winged Lion King had been heavily injured and had still not recovered.

And before his last death rollback, he had slept for a whole day and hadn't seen Fang Yuan make it to second place on the leaderboard!

"Forget it, whatever!"

"He wants the lion and tiger to fight, but I... refuse to let it happen!"

With his current overwhelming strength, why would he waste time watching this boring drama?

He wanted to find Fang Yuan as quickly as possible, and then slay the two Tier 3 Chaotic Beasts.

If he didn't find Fang Yuan first, he was afraid the guy would steal the last hits.

Under the hundreds of calculations of the Target Settlement, Fang Yuan naturally had nowhere to hide.

Twelve golden wings blossomed from Lin Wan's back.

Angel Domain, expand!

Empowered by his mental strength, he waved his hand, easily grabbing the human and beast hiding in the shadows.

Under the coverage of the Angel Domain, the two beast kings naturally felt Lin Wan's oppressive pressure, making them temporarily too suppressed to move.

The moment Fang Yuan and a Red Purple-Gold Beast appeared, the Purple-Gold Winged Tiger's eyes turned blood-red.

"So it was you!"

He let out an earth-shattering roar.

Lin Wan said nothing. He raised his hand to suppress the tiger, and holding Zisha's hand, he teleported next to Fang Yuan.

He stared at the human and the beast. After looking closely, a look of realization dawned on him.

"To be able to contract a Red Purple-Gold Beast with over ten thousand combat power while only having over eight thousand combat power yourself, you're pretty impressive!"

"But it seems to be just an equal contract..."

If it were a master-servant contract, the servant would die if the master died. But with an equal contract, that wouldn't happen.

That made sense. No matter how strong Fang Yuan was, it was impossible for him to force a beast with higher combat power than him to sign a master-servant contract.

"You... how can you be here?"

Fang Yuan seemed shocked by Lin Wan's appearance here.

"What's wrong? Am I not supposed to be here?"

Lin Wan found it a bit baffling.

Why did everyone from the Gu Refining Civilization seem to know him? Did Fang Yuan also have some sort of rebirth method?

Just as Lin Wan was feeling puzzled, Fang Yuan smiled.

"Not only do I know you, but I also know your title!"

"My title?"

"Yes. The world's heroes are as numerous as crucian carps crossing a river, but you are the most genius person I have ever met there—without exception!"

"There?"

Lin Wan was utterly confused. Where did "there" refer to?

"You won't have the chance to find out. Thank you for giving me the time to channel my Gu energy."

"Goodbye, Empress of the Galaxy!"

In an instant, Lin Wan saw,

Fang Yuan's form suddenly became illusory. Following that,

his entire figure suddenly became exceptionally voluptuous, with curves appearing where they shouldn't have been, and his full head of black hair turned white.

He transformed into an incomparably beautiful woman.

Cold, elegant, with an immortal-like aura!

"Yin-Yang Reversal Gu, activate!"

In the blink of an eye, Fang Yuan disappeared on the spot, leaving absolutely no trace.

It was as if he had gone to another world.

"Damn, this is troublesome!"

"If I'd known, I wouldn't have let my curiosity get the better of me. I really need to break this habit of waiting for the villain to finish casting their skills!!"

Lin Wan stood frozen in place, scratching his head in frustration.
