Chapter 197: Battle

"Stop!" Zi Yan's childish voice rang out, and then she stood in front of these lizard men.

The Amethyst Winged Lion King also roared furiously and approached in front of the five of them.

"Hm, a girl and a sixth-rank magical beast? There should be two more."

"They should be in that cave..." Looking at Zi Yan and the Amethyst Winged Lion King blocking their way, the lizard men looked at each other and exchanged words in front of Zi Yan.

A moment later, the lizard man leading the group stepped forward and said in a fluent continental common language, "Humans, hand over the Heavenly Poison Fruit you have obtained and go out from the depths of the Nether Poison Swamp, and we will refrain from harming you."

Hearing his words, Zi Yan curled her lips and felt that the other party was talking nonsense.

"I don't know what Heavenly Poison Fruits are, I've eaten all the herbs I could find, and even if I did, I wouldn't give them to you, so you should leave now!"

"Eaten by you? How can that be?" The lizard man's eyes stared at her in disbelief.

The energy contained in the Heavenly Poison Fruit was extremely powerful, how could it be consumed so easily?

"The Heavenly Poison Fruit is something our clan has carefully cultivated, I'm afraid it's not right for you to just take it."

This statement was actually a bit shameless, the Heavenly Poison Fruit that Xiao Ming had discovered was actually cultivated by nature, and the first creature to discover it was actually a Blue-Scaled Python that was capable of living in highly poisonous fog. Later, the Blue-Scaled Python was killed by them, and the Heavenly Poison Fruit that the Blue-Scaled Python was guarding just fell into their hands.

In other words, this Heavenly Poison Fruit was not cultivated by them.

Of course, Zi Yan didn't care if they were telling the truth or not, not to mention that she didn't know what Heavenly Poison Fruit was, even if she did, no one else could dream of snatching the medicinal herbs that had come into her hands, except for Xiao Ming.

So she immediately spoke up impatiently, "Ugly lizards, I already told you, I don't have it! Why are you still insisting?" Zi Yan's words caused the lizard men's faces to darken.

The lizard men were not the most attractive of creatures, they had human-like bodies, but their skin was a pale green, dry and wrinkled, and their heads were lizard heads without any hair on top of them.

The lizard men also knew that they were probably not the most attractive among the other races, but to be called ugly out of nowhere was a bit too much.

And, since Zi Yan kept insisting that she didn't have the Heavenly Poison Fruit, this also exhausted their patience.

So they decided to issue an ultimatum. "Hand over the Heavenly Poison Fruit or face the consequences!"

Boom!

After uttering these words, five majestic auras rose towards the clouds, and even the black clouds in the sky seemed to shake a little.

"Hmph! Don't you want to fight? Let's fight! We'll see who's afraid of whom". Although she said these words, Zi Yan's face could not help but turn grave.

This was because, from the aura they just released, she could sense that the lizardmen in front of her were all actually in the peak Dou Emperor, which would be a formidable opponent.

The Amethyst Winged Lion King's face also started to turn grave.

It was only a magical beast comparable to a five-star Dou Emperor (originally comparable to a three-star Dou Emperor, Xiao Ming had fed it pills). Now it really had to fight against five peak Dou Emperors, and its teammate was still a Dou King, wasn't this a bit beyond the limit!?

The Amethyst Winged Lion King did not want to send itself to its death and intended to retreat.

But then it thought that since Xiao Ming had taken it as its subordinate, other than using it as a mount, he hadn't treated it badly and had allowed it to improve its strength, so it couldn't live with its conscience if it ran away like that.

Gritting its teeth, the Amethyst Winged Lion King said inwardly, 'I hope big brother comes out and saves me soon!'

Looking at Zi Yan and the Amethyst Winged Lion King, who were still refusing to back down in the slightest despite having released their Dou Qi, the Lizard-People's faces darkened.

"Hehe, you guys asked for it yourselves, do it!"

The leader of the lizard men gave an order, and four figures rushed at Zi Yan and the Amethyst WInged Lion King.

Because the Amethyst Winged Lion King was a Dou Emperor, three of the four figures aimed at it.

This caused it to roar in disgust and curse in its heart.

'Shit, how shameless! All of them are peak Dou Emperor powerhouses and yet three of them are surrounding me, there is no trace of the temperament of an expert'.

The good thing was that the lizard men still seemed to have some shame, and did not use a big killing move on the Amethyst Winged Lion King from the very first moment, which allowed the Amethyst Winged Lion King to hold on a bit thanks to its magical beast body and thick flesh.

Although Zi Yan was about to advance, she was still a Dou King and was still at a disadvantage against a peak Dou Emperor.

Seeing this, Zi Yan gritted her teeth and faint spatial ripples emerged from under her feet, and instantly, her speed increased several times, and her tactics became evasive.

Under the lizard man's attack, she could still withstand it.

There were only four people attacking Zi Yan and the Amethyst Winged Lion King, and the lizard man leading the group held back and did not join the siege.

When he saw that his companions were exerting so much effort against a Dou Emperor and a Dou King, he immediately showed an expression of dissatisfaction.

"We have no time to waste, hurry up and finish quickly".

Hearing these words, these four lizard men instantly had a ruthless look on their faces.

Their hand movements became increasingly violent, and as the target of the three lizard men's siege, the Amethyst Winged Lion King's amethyst crystals broke off over a wide area of its body, and the blood began to splatter.

Boom!

Suddenly, a loud energy-filled punch slammed into the Amethyst Winged Lion King's head, slamming it to the ground.

"Cough, cough, cough." Scarlet blood spurted from the corners of its mouth, the Amethyst Winged Lion King tried to struggle to get up when a foot stepped on it, this foot was pitifully small compared to the Amethyst Winged Lion King's body, but the Amethyst Winged Lion King felt that this foot was as heavy as a mountain.

"Hehe, wouldn't it have been better to give us the Heavenly Poison Fruit? Instead, you decided to put your lives on the line uselessly".

After saying this, this lizardman began to accumulate energy.

The Amethyst Winged Lion King, for its part, snorted coldly at his words, would they be fine with just giving them the Heavenly Poison Fruit?

What nonsense! Would the other side actually let the powerful people they had offended leave just because they obediently give them some heavenly treasures? This was amusing enough to listen to.

"Die!" the lizardman beside the Amethyst Winged Lion King bellowed before striking with full force.

Zi Yan, who had been able to withstand the lizardman's attack with her unique abilities, became worried as she saw the Amethyst Winged Lion King's predicament.

Ripples surged under her feet in an attempt to help it, but within a few steps, she was blocked by two other lizard men who had been left free.

'Heh, I haven't seen my son for a long time, if I were to die, Xiao Ming will give my son good training, right? After all, I promised to serve him and now I have done my best,' the Amethyst Winged Lion King thought of its child under the care of the Xiao family and felt a twinge of sadness at the thought of leaving it fatherless.

But this sadness was short-lived as it suddenly realized something was amiss.

'Wasn't he going to kill me, how come there's no pain?' The Amethyst Winged Lion King wondered.

Suddenly, a familiar voice echoed in its ears.

"Take the pill and step aside, I will deal with these creatures."

A jade bottle was thrown in front of the Amethyst Winged Lion King, and it looked up to see Xiao Ming with a fierce expression, holding a lizardman in front of him.
