Chapter 110: Stirring Up Trouble
"Lady Yue Mei, should we kill him?" the Snake-Women who had been guarding outside the forest earlier asked. Their gazes were fixed coldly on Xiao Yan. After all, to the Snake-People, humans were the enemy.
"Wait, don't be hasty. This guy is an alchemist. If he can refine pills for our tribe, we can give him some benefits." Yue Mei said with a charming smile. Her snake tail slowly extended from Xiao Yan's ankle to his thigh. She didn't mind exposing her naked, delicate body to his eyes.
In Yue Mei's view, even if Xiao Yan wasn't a dead man, he was at most a male slave.
Two figures flashed and appeared behind Yue Mei, draping a black robe over her to conceal the alluring sight that could make any man's blood boil.
"Let's go back." As soon as Yue Mei finished speaking, with a rumbling sound, a Rank 3 Desert Giant Python burst out from beneath the sand.
The giant python had a structure resembling a canopy on its back. Yue Mei grabbed Xiao Yan by his clothes and pulled him onto the python's back with a flick of her snake tail.
The other Snake-People guards also leaped onto the python's back. With a hissing cry, the Giant Python shot off like a gale, shuttling through the yellow sands toward the tribe Yue Mei ruled.
Xiao Yan sat timidly in the corner like a little bride, not daring to make a sound.
"Hehehe, don't be afraid. If you provide enough pills for our tribe, I'll give you anything you desire." Yue Mei said with a smile as she looked at Xiao Yan, but the gleam in her eyes certainly didn't match her words.
Xiao Yan nodded, appearing terrified on the surface, but inwardly he couldn't help but snicker, 'You still want me to refine pills for you? Just wait until I get into your tribe, I'll burn it all down in one go.'
After the Giant Python had sped through the desert for nearly half an hour, a city comparable in size to Rock Desert City gradually appeared in Xiao Yan's view.
'Finally here. According to the map Hai Bodong gave me, once I pass through this city, I'll quickly reach the Holy City.' Xiao Yan secretly rejoiced in his heart. He never thought he would be able to sneak in so smoothly. Now he just had to wait for the key players to arrive and stir
things up.
!? 'Hmm!? They're a day early!' Xiao Yan's eyelid twitched. His Spiritual Strength had sensed several powerful auras rapidly approaching from the distance.
"Hahaha! I said there was a powerful Snake-Person's aura in this direction. It seems I was right." A hearty laugh carried by Dou Qi resounded through the desert.
With several thunderous booms, two figures that had been flashing through the sky at extreme speed suddenly halted. The sharp air currents from their movement sounded like a clap of thunder in the air.
'Two elite Dou Kings. These must be Lion King Yan Shi and Wind Walker Feng Li of the Ten Strongest. Sigh, it seems that old fellow Gu He doesn't really trust Hai Bodong. He actually moved secretly a day in advance.'
Yue Mei's pretty face turned extremely solemn as she cast a cold glance at the two men in the air.
A resounding roar rang out not long after they appeared. A giant magical beast with a completely green body gradually emerged in the sky above the desert.
Six black-robed figures sat on the back of this powerful Rank 4 magical beast.
Xiao Yan watched the sudden appearance of these figures. Although none of them showed their faces, he knew their identities from Hai Bodong's letter.
The one leading in the center was none other than Gu He. The others were all elite experts Gu He had gathered.
'Tsk tsk tsk, an elite Dou Emperor, three advanced Dou Kings, four peak Dou Spirits, and a Rank 4 magical beast. If Queen Medusa doesn't make a move, the entire Snake-People Tribe will definitely be turned upside down.'
What Xiao Yan was most concerned about was the black-robed figure standing quietly to the side. That was a Dou Emperor, and one Xiao Yan knew.
Three of the Jia Ma Empire's Ten Strongest had arrived!
But this wasn't enough. If things stayed as they were, Queen Medusa definitely wouldn't rashly go to war with Gu He. He still needed to add some fuel to the fire.
"Who are you? Why have you come to the depths of my tribe's territory in the middle of the night? Don't you know it's forbidden for you humans to enter here?" The charming smile on Yue Mei's pretty face had completely vanished, replaced by a cold and stern expression.
Obviously, she had sensed how terrifying the lineup before her eyes was. She was no longer in the mood for jokes.
"Hehe. We have indeed come to the Tager Desert for some important matters. I wonder if you could take us into the Holy City to meet Her Majesty the Queen?" Gu He removed the hood of his robe and said with a smile.
"You want to see Her Majesty the Queen?" Yue Mei's beautiful eyes instantly curved into a dangerous arc upon hearing this.
"Our Snake-People have been at odds with you humans for many years. Both sides have hands stained with the other's blood. What is there to discuss? If you know what's good for you, I advise you to leave quickly. Otherwise, once the eight great leaders of our Snake-People gather, the ranks of experts in your Jia Ma Empire will probably be greatly thinned out."
"Old He, I told you long ago. Don't even think about negotiating with the Snake-People Race. These lowly snakes only respond to force, not kindness." Yan Shi laughed heartily at the middle-aged man.
"This one is Yue Mei, the leader of the Mei Snake Tribe. Capturing her will allow us to pass through the Mei Snake Tribe's territory. You've already delayed for some time. If we're late and that thing is gone, then it's gone." Feng Li said indifferently.
Yue Mei's expression was grave. Even if she had never fought these two before, there were no weaklings among elite Dou Kings. Moreover, they were two advanced Dou Kings. She might still have a chance in a one-on-one fight, but in a two-against-one situation, she was sure to
lose.
Yue Mei paid no more attention to Xiao Yan. With a pop, Dou Qi Wings formed behind her as she flew toward the tribe.
"Stop her!" Yan Shi shouted with a furrowed brow when he saw the sudden surge of Dou Qi on
Yue Mei's body.
Before his voice had even faded, Feng Li beside him transformed into a streak of wind and shot toward Yue Mei like a bolt of lightning.
"Snake Technique: Division!" Yue Mei's body suddenly trembled, then, to everyone's astonishment, abruptly exploded.
However, instead of flesh and blood being scattered by the explosion, countless huge snakes
of dark green energy poured out from the point of explosion and charged toward all directions like a vast ocean.
"What a strange beast technique." Yan Shi casually sent out over a dozen threads of Dou Qi, smashing hundreds of energy snakes into nothingness. Yet, the seemingly endless wave of energy snakes still surged forward.
"Forget about her. Let's move. We can't afford to delay any longer."
The giant beast flapped its wings. Xiao Yan sat on the yellow sand, watching Gu He and the others preparing to force their way through the Mei Snake Tribe's territory. The only Dou Emperor on the beast gave Xiao Yan a deep, lingering look.
Xiao Yan sighed and shook his head as he watched the giant beast grow smaller in the distance. Gu He was a guest elder of the Misty Cloud Sect, so it was natural for him to seek
their assistance.
Aside from Yan Shi and Feng Li, the rest were all from the Misty Cloud Sect. The elite Dou Emperor among them was naturally the Sect Leader of the Misty Cloud Sect, Yun Yun.
Hai Bodong had long ago revealed all the information to Xiao Yan. He knew Yun Yun would
come along.
When he saw Yun Yun again, memories of past events involuntarily flooded back into his mind, particularly when he had gone berserk. He had tightly embraced Yun Yun and even bitten her at one point.
He shook his head, dispelling all these thoughts. He took out the Soul Robe from his storage ring and put it on again. With a whoosh, he summoned Mao Wu and said, "Mao Wu, follow
those people."

A green light flashed. Xiao Yan took out a Core-Fire Lotus Seed and fed it to Mao Wu as he instructed, "Do everything according to plan. You follow them. I'll go to the Holy City's treasury to find the Heavenly Flame. When the time comes, listen for my spiritual voice
transmission. We'll stir up a big mess for them!"
