“This is bad!”

The moment the rippling sound wave enshrouded him, Ye Xuan felt a blast in his ears, and his grip on the Ironwood Thorn immediately loosened.

Even after he’d caught a glimpse of the Dual-Winged Tricolor Amber Tyrannosaurus’s attributes, he genuinely hadn’t expected this blockhead’s roar to be this powerful.

After his consciousness recovered slightly, he prompted his mind and was about to activate the Protection Amulet hanging over his chest.

Otherwise, if he landed on the ground, this enormous being may very well tear him apart.

Swoosh!

But at that moment, a vine with green leaves clinging to it suddenly descended from the sky and wrapped around him like a snake, taking him high into the sky.

“Lil Wan?” Ye Xuan raised his head in shock.

He saw that although Lil Wan had also been affected by the creature’s Amber Tyrannosaurus Roar earlier on, seemingly because of her Psychic Power, she was able to regain her foothold in just a brief amount of time…

And unleash her vines, bringing him higher up into the sky.

Roar!

Behind them, seeing that its attack hadn’t brought down both Ye Xuan and Lil Wan, the Dual-Winged Amber Dragon burst into a rage, its eyes flickering coldly.

Immediately, it stretched out its icy-cold body, which seemed as if it were made of amber, in the open space. Then, with a forward thrust, it flapped its wings and propelled itself towards Ye Xuan and Lil Wan.

“Oh gosh!” Ye Xuan was stunned.

Although this thing had the term “winged” in its name, its body was extremely bulky, after all.

So Ye Xuan hadn’t expected that this thing could actually fly.

His heartbeat accelerated when he saw it flying towards him.

But fortunately, although this creature could fly, it could at most glide for some 20 to 30 meters in the air before it would inevitably decline in altitude.

“Roar!”

When the Dual-Winged Amber Dragon, who was falling, saw Ye Xuan fly even further up in the sky, the rage in its eyes intensified, and it shook its body and continued its pursuit.

“What’s wrong with this guy? Is it for real?!”

Ye Xuan was at a loss for words.

It wasn’t that he hadn’t encountered a monster in these past few days that he couldn’t deal with.

Just yesterday, he had accidentally run into an Amber Mammoth.

However, at that time, after Lil Wan took him high up into the air, the Amber Mammoth only went after him for a few steps before giving up.

It hadn’t been at all as persistent as this massive dude.

Lil Wan flew Ye Xuan down the hillside into the dense, complicated forest in an attempt to shake the dragon off.

Crackling!

However, the moment Ye Xuan and Lil Wan maneuvered into the dense forest, the Amber Sparrow and all the other birds fell from the trees when they saw the Amber Tyrannosaurus that was behind them.

One by one, like frightened quails, they shrank and retreated to the edge of the big trees.

“What the hell?”

Ye Xuan was dumbfounded.

“You guys are birds!”

“Can’t birds fly? With your speed, you can just fly away! Is it necessary for you to be so terrified of this big guy?”

He was bewildered.

He couldn’t understand what was going on at all.

Swoosh!

But just as Ye Xuan thought about this, in the forest, a small Amber Sparrow, which looked like a new-born, made a different choice from the rest of the birds, who were all terrified after catching sight of the ginormous figure of the Amber Dragon.

It fluttered its wings and flew away.

“Roar!”

The Dual-Winged Amber Tyrannosaurus had eyes as sharp as lightning. Even as it chased Ye Xuan, it continued to observe its surroundings. Seeing that the Amber Sparrow was trying to fly away, it opened its mouth, and a colorful aura gushed outwards, along with a terrifying sound wave.

The Amber Sparrow was enveloped in a flash.

Thud!

Struck by the shock, the Amber Sparrow immediately fell from the air.

After it fell, the Dual-Winged Amber Dragon snarled at it. Only when the bird started trembling in fear did the dragon unhurriedly continue to chase after Ye Xuan.

It seemed that it wouldn’t give up trying to catch up with Ye Xuan.

Ye Xuan was speechless when he saw this. “What in the name of heaven is it doing?”

“Does it have a deep grudge against us or something?”

However, recalling how this Dual-Winged Amber Dragon had ignored the Amber Sparrow after it’d fallen to the ground, a flash of inspiration sparked in his mind.

“Lil Wan, we need to go lower. Drop down in a low-lying area and be ready to trigger your Protection Amulet to leave this place at any moment!”

Ye Xuan’s eyes were vivid.

After all, Lil Wan was only a High-Level apprentice. She had limited Mind Energy.

If this continued, it wouldn’t take long before they would have to actively trigger the Protection Amulet and leave the secret realm.

Hence, he had to quickly come up with a plan.

“Darn this thing!”

Lil Wan clenched her fist.

She was also a three-star beast. But when faced with this Dual-Winged Amber Dragon, she had no other option but to embarrassingly flee with Ye Xuan.

This made her feel extremely helpless.

However, she listened to Ye Xuan.

After Ye Xuan told her what to do, she looked around and, after finding a relatively low-lying place, dropped down with Ye Xuan.

The Dual-Winged Amber Tyrannosaurus, which was following immediately behind, saw Ye Xuan and Lil Wan descending. And what’s more, they were landing in a low-lying region.

With a roar, it charged towards the two. When it was some two meters away from them, it halted its steps, raised its head haughtily, and stared at them condescendingly with a kingly gaze.

It was seemingly telling them: this entire secret realm is my territory.

You are all my people.

No matter who you are, you are only worthy of being looked down on.

No one is qualified to look down on me.

Phew!

When Ye Xuan saw that the Amber Tyrannosaurus had actually stopped, he couldn’t help but let out a long, thick breath as he immediately scrapped the idea of activating the Protection Amulet.

But even so, he remained vigilant towards this creature in case it suddenly attacked him.

“Roar!”

After watching Ye Xuan and Lil Wan for a few seconds, this strange Two-Winged Amber Tyrannosaurus finally roared, turned around, and left contently.

It seemed that its purpose from beginning to end had been to make the two surrender under its despotic might.

“This thing, what kind of kink is this?”

Ye Xuan was dumbfounded when he saw the Double-Winged Amber Tyrannosaurus, which had been chasing him and Lil Wan for so long, leave just like that.

Fortunately, he reacted quickly this time.

Earlier, when he’d seen the Amber Tyrannosaurus ignore the Amber Sparrow after it’d fallen from the air, he had suddenly come up with a strange idea.

At that time, he’d needed to come up with some sort of plan. Otherwise, he and Lil Wan would really have had to leave the secret realm early.

“It left?”

On Ye Xuan’s shoulder, Lil Wan looked at the departing Amber Tyrannosaurus, her mouth dropping open in amazement.

She still couldn’t quite figure it out yet.

She didn’t understand why this big guy had chased them for so long, only to turn around and leave after catching up with them.

Ye Xuan looked at the departing Amber Tyrannosaurus, and after a moment of contemplation, he said with clenched fists, “Let’s go, Lil Wan. Let’s follow it and see what its deal is.”

“What? Follow it?” Lil Wan stumbled in shock, and almost fell from Ye Xuan’s shoulder.

“Yes!” Ye Xuan nodded. “This guy is simply perfection. In any case, I must give it a go. Let’s see if I can form a contract with it!”

He was wondering if maybe this time in the Amber Secret Realm, no four-star Amber Dragon beast had been born.

And that instead, that big guy who’d chased after them just now was in fact the king of this secret realm!
