First Encounter With Queen Medusa
Lian Xue forcefully suppressed the rampaging Green Lotus Core Flame and handed it to Li Xiao.
Nodding in satisfaction, Li Xiao took the flame and placed it into the system storage. If he had put it in his storage ring, everything inside would have been burnt to ash. The system storage, however, was an independent space, impervious even to the strongest Heavenly Flame.
His harvest this time wasn't only the Heavenly Flame but also the Green-colored Lotus Platform and Core-Fire Lotus Seed.
This green colored lotus platform was formed from the agglomeration of the planet's flame for a thousand years. As long as you removed it and sat on it to train in the future, the increase in training speed might not be as exaggerated as tenfold, but at least you would experience an increase in efficiency of three or four times higher than usual.
The other treasure, the Core-Fire Lotus Seed that was known as the essence of flame spirits was something that requires a hundred years to form, coveted even by Dou Emperors.
The trip this time really brought him a great harvest.
The next step was to sell the Heavenly Flame.
...
In the scorching depths of the Tager Desert, several figures flew rapidly towards a marked spot on the map they possessed. This map indicated the distribution of Snake-People Tribe warriors across different directions in the desert.
They were the leaders of the eight great tribes of Snake-People Tribe. Unless summoned by the Queen, they usually stayed in their territories, striving to enhance their strength. Among the vast regions they ruled, the territory of Queen Medusa was the strongest, making this place hold a high prestige among the tribes. Moreover, this was also the place where the former Queen Medusas resided, a sacred sanctuary for the Snake-People of sorts. With all the eight leaders present, it could be said that all the elite of the Snake-People Tribe had gathered here.
Other than Queen Medusa, the Snake-People Tribes also housed several peak Dou Emperor elders. Those people had witnessed the current Queen Medusa's rise and the tribe's prosperity, but they only appeared at big events; otherwise, they would stay in seclusion all year long to cultivate.
As night fell, Li Xiao and his companions arrived at an oasis. Finding an oasis within the desolate Tager Desert was indeed a true blessing. As they entered, a refreshing breeze greeted them, dispelling the heat from their bodies.
"This feels great," Li Xiao stretched his sore muscle, glancing at the Amethyst Winged Lion King behind him. "Have you been here before?"
Amethyst Winged Lion King shook his head, "No, as I was the overlord of Magical Beast Mountain Range, so I rarely venture to the deeper part of the Tager Desert. But I've seen Queen Medusa before; she is quite terrifying."
Back then, he was still young and vigorous. Dissatisfied with the little corner he had, he set his sights on the territory of Snake-People Tribe in the Tager Desert. But, in the end, he kicked an iron board and was beaten back by the formidable Queen Medusa to retreat. If he hadn't fled quickly and knew some sealing techniques, he would've perished long ago. Recalling that event, it still sent a chill down his spine.
"Who dares to trespass our Holy Pool!" Suddenly, a sharp shout echoed from afar.
Li Xiao frowned, wondering how they had been detected despite hiding their presence. Turning around, he saw that the Amethyst Winged Lion King had brazenly released its aura, seemingly declaring its territory.
Li Xiao's face darkened immediately, contemplating making lion head stew tonight.
Two figures appeared in the sky simultaneously. The leading woman was stunningly beautiful Dou Emperor, almost bewitchingly so. Her narrow almond eyes with their enchanting gaze seemed capable of captivating any man's attention.
She wore a luxurious purple robe, and beneath it, her voluptuous and delicate body was as enticing as a ripe peach, exuding a faint allure.
Her long, silky black hair cascaded freely over her fragrant shoulders, reaching down to her slender waist. A section of her purple snake tail peeked out from under her robe. The snake tail swayed slightly, radiating a wild, seductive charm that made one's body inexplicably heat up.
Beside her was another snake-woman, though she was only at the Dou King level and her beauty could not compare to the Dou Emperor.
Yue Mei drew her whip, coldly eyeing the group below. "Amethyst Winged Lion King, it's you again! Didn't you suffer enough back then? How dare you barge into Snake-People Tribe's sacred land. Do you want to die?"
Old enemies met in narrow roads; their emotions couldn't help but stir up as they ended up in glaring wars.
Amethyst Winged Lion King and the other rank five magical beast let out deafening roars.
Yue Mei's fingers danced, sending hundreds of small purple snakes rushing toward the Amethyst Winged Lion King and the humans beside him.
Amethyst Winged Lion King, however, didn't bother to spare them any glance. A mere Dou King dare to challenge the dignity of Northern Forest's overlord? How presumptuous. With a resounding roar, all of Yue Mei's summoned snakes were destroyed, disappearing without a trace.
Seeing this result, Yue Mei frowned slightly.
Li Xiao restrained the Amethyst Winged Lion King, who was ready to pounce at his enemy. He was here for business, not to fight. He shifted his gaze to Yue Mei in the sky, speaking warmly, "Lady, we come without any ill intention."
Yue Mei glanced at the queen beside her, then back at Li Xiao. She couldn't discern the strength of these people. However, with the queen's support, she wouldn't be submissive. "You just barged into our sacred place, this is what you call coming without ill-intention?"
Li Xiao ignored the foolish woman whom he couldn't communicate with, focusing on the stunning beauty instead. "Your beauty is unparalleled. You must be the Snake-People Tribe Queen Medusa, correct?"
Queen Medusa half-closed her eyes, not answering Li Xiao's question, but instead addressing the Amethyst Winged Lion King. "Amethyst Winged Lion King, Lapis Gold Beast, I didn't expect you two to be with humans. Don't you despise humans the most?"
With Pavilion Master's assistance, Amethyst Winged Lion King managed to reach the peak of Dou Emperor, on the verge of breaking through to Dou Ancestor, so he wasn't afraid of Medusa now.
"Medusa, you almost killed me back then. Today, I want to see if you still have the guts to say such things!"
"Are you seeking death?"
Li Xiao's face darkened throughout. He felt like they were treating him like air the whole time.
Lian Xue covered her mouth, giggling. The Pavilion Master also had his day.
"We, Snake-People Tribe, always fight our enemies till our last breath!"
Yue Mei charged at Li Xiao, but a fierce roar from the Amethyst Winged Lion King sent her stumbling back. One blow was enough to make Yue Mei's blood boil, nearly costing her life.
