What do you mean I've traveled to worlds geared towards children?

Ignoring the mimic bat stabilizing itself beside him, Ron casually said to Mu Dongyin:

"Go and support Master Hu."

"…And you?"

“I don’t like fighting the weak. Right now, none of them are a match for me, so… let’s talk about it after they’ve defeated you.”

Ron made up a random excuse.

But he was right. With fantasy-level power, An Yan and the others would probably be no match for Ron.

As for the phantom beasts that came to support the Lion King, they were also no match for the Ghost Angel.

If Ron were to go and help, it would likely put the Phantom Beast Warriors at a disadvantage. Although An Yan is the protagonist and might be able to turn the tide, Ron didn't dare to gamble that they would definitely win.

Ron still remembers the death of the butterfly fairy.

Therefore, it would be most appropriate for Ron to go out and openly declare his 'betrayal' of the Beast Warriors after the Beast Warriors have weakened the Demon God's side.

……

"I am the strongest!!!"

Master Tiger roared and leaped down from the sky with his greatsword, smashing it down on the phantom beast warriors.

The phantom beast warriors split up, causing the attack to miss, and the huge, black-dyed greatsword slammed heavily into the ground!

boom!!

The floor tiles of the Guardian Temple shattered, and the scattered fragments flew in all directions.

Upon seeing this, Jiang Chen, transformed into a shield bear, stepped forward and blocked all the fragments.

Ding ding dang dang

Brick fragments struck the shield and fell from it.

Seeing this from behind, Chen Xiaolian couldn't help but shout:

"This guy seems stronger than before! What do we do?!"

"I'll stop him."

Seeing that the group of Phantom Beast Warriors was about to be stopped here by Master Tiger, the Sky Eagle Guard, who had come with them, said to everyone:

"Keep going! Rescue your companion as quickly as possible! I'll hold him off!"

"But...you're all alone...?"

An Yan was very worried.

Jiang Chen said at this moment, "I'll go with the Skyhawk Guards. As for An Yan... I'll leave the task of rescuing Ron to you!"

The Sky Eagle Guardian and the Shield Bear, which Jiang Chen had contracted, are both phantom beasts with extremely high defensive capabilities, making them perfect for holding off Master Hu.

If given some time, they might even be able to defeat the enhanced Tiger Master!

Therefore, once they were certain that Master Hu could be kept here, An Yan and the others did not hesitate.

"Watch out!"

He gave the two men a few words of advice and then continued forward.

A major battle may be coming up, and they must not waste time and energy here. They must conserve their strength for the final battle.

Chapter 69 Everyone Has an Opponent

"None of you can leave!!!"

Tiger Master, whose mind was corrupted by darkness, roared at the Phantom Beast Warriors.

He brandished his broadsword, sending blade energy flying in all directions, while roaring:

"Fierce Tiger's Chaotic Slash!"

"Don't even think about it!!"

Standing at the very front was the Shield Bear Jiang Chen, whose body seemed to grow even larger, with the shields on his arms coming together in the middle to become an even bigger shield blocking his way.

A strong shield protects you!

"Me too! Strengthen the defense!" The Sky Eagle Guardian also unleashed his ultimate move at this moment, joining Jiang Chen in blocking Master Tiger's attack. Then he turned to An Yan and said:

"Run!!"

"Let's go!" Without hesitation, the Lion King punched away the scattered sword energy, and then continued forward with the Divine Fox Witch, An Yan, and Chen Xiaolian.

Roar! ! !

Master Tiger continued to roar in frustration. He wanted to keep An Yan here, and he wanted to keep the phantom beast warriors who had defeated him here. However, his attacks could not penetrate the special moves of the two phantom beasts that focused on defense. Therefore, he could only watch helplessly as An Yan and the others ran into the depths of the Guardian Temple.

As the sounds of battle behind him faded into the distance, An Yan's resolve, fueled by his armed mindset, grew ever stronger.

He wants to rescue Ron here, and together with everyone, see if they can eliminate the culprit who plunged the Endless Forest into darkness, that so-called Demon God!

Therefore, he absolutely cannot stop here!

But... just as An Yan thought this, a point of light suddenly appeared in the darkness deep within the hall before everyone's eyes.

The light flickered once, and only once, before the Lion King sensed something was wrong.

"careful!"

The Lion King shouted, and at the same time immediately pushed An Yan aside and hid to the other side.

It was precisely in the instant he and An Yan dodged that the point of light deep within the hall suddenly transformed into a thick, purple cannonball with black arcs of electricity, piercing through the two of them!

"There are still enemies?!" The fox spirit priestess suddenly turned her head to look into the depths of the hall.

Accompanied by the 'tap tap' of footsteps, Mu Dongyin, tall and slender with a perfect figure after her transformation, appeared before everyone.

Stop here.

Her right hand transformed into the shape of a mechanical cannon, aimed at the crowd.

The mask on his face shows a small figure with a big X over it, indicating that passage is prohibited.

"It's you……"

An Yan recognized Mu Dongyin at first glance, recognizing this beast warrior who should have been their comrade but had instead defected to the enemy.

The moment An Yan saw Mu Dongyin, he remembered what Ron had told him.

Mu Dongyin... might have been deceived by the demon god.

Thinking of this, An Yan couldn't help but call out to Mu Dongyin:

"Although I don't know your name, but... look carefully! We are allies! No matter what that demon said to you, he is still here..."

boom!!

Before An Yan could finish speaking, Mu Dongyin launched another scathing attack on him without any mercy.

"Get out of the way!" The Lion King reacted quickly, grabbing An Yan and preventing him from being hit by the magic cannon immediately.

But having just saved An Yan, he grabbed An Yan and pulled him close in the next second, roaring:

"Don't get distracted! And don't try to persuade the enemy with words! Can't you see? This guy, like me before, has been corrupted by darkness!!"

"!!"

An Yan immediately looked at Mu Dongyin, fixing his gaze on the center of Mu Dongyin's heart.

The rabbit icon, which serves as the symbol of the Phantom Beast Warrior, is now flowing with a dark luster, and beneath Mu Dongyin's mask, one can vaguely see the light in her pupils, which are tinged with black and red.

An Yan then realized that even if Mu Dongyin had really been deceived by the demon god, at this moment Mu Dongyin was also a force of darkness.

Dark power flows through her body!

Wait... if Mu Dongyin is corrupted by darkness, then what about Ron, who was captured...?

An Yan suddenly realized this.

Even through the mask, the Lion King could sense An Yan's sudden realization. He released An Yan and said coldly to him:

"You've figured it out? If you have, then move on past her! Don't let your companion end up like her!"

Mu Dongyin was tainted by darkness, and unless An Yan used the Beast Purifier to purify her, it would be impossible for him to pull her to his side in a short period of time.

However, using the Mythical Beast Purifier is quite time-consuming.

What if, while they hesitate, Ron is swallowed by darkness and suffers the same fate as Mu Dongyin?

This is an outcome that An Yan cannot accept!

Therefore, An Yan's journey cannot stop here!

"The Divine Fox Priestess, she's in your care."

The fox spirit priestess beside the Lion Dynasty gave the order.

Chen Xiaolian glanced at An Yan, then said to the Lion King, "I'll stay here too."

After she finished speaking, she smiled at An Yan and said, "There has to be someone who stays here to 'purify' her, right?"

As Chen Xiaolian spoke, she shook the pet purifier in her hand, which had turned pink and had a cute heart-shaped pattern.
