The Battle Through Heaven
Rushing To The Tribe At Night
Watching the vast desert, Xiao Yan gradually recovered. He lowered his head, looked at the ring on his finger and helplessly said, "Teacher, you should be able to get out now."
Hearing Xiao Yan's words, the ancient-looking old black ring trembled slightly and Yao Lao slowly floated out. His gaze first swept to the horizon where the people from before disappeared and then turned to Xiao Yan. He smiled and said with a deeper meaning, "It seems like something big is going to happen in this desert."
Xiao Yan nodded. With such a group of extremely strong people coming, it would be strange if this desert did not become a mess. It seemed like after Yue Mei returned, the Snake-People tribes in the desert would become fully armed and guarded.
"Why did they come to the Tager Desert? Was the Jia Ma Kingdom thinking of starting a war with the Snakes again? " Xiao Yan frowned and said uncertainly.
"Hearing their discussion earlier, it seemed like they intended to look for Queen Medusa." Yao Lao said softly.
"Find Queen Medusa yes even though their line-up is very strong, Queen Medusa is far from weak. Moreover, there were many other strong people among the eight great tribes of the Snake People. Once they had the chance to gather together, I guess the previous group would not be able to leave the desert safely and healthily. " Xiao Yan waved his head. His smile had an arrogant meaning. That group of people, with the exception of the black-robed mysterious person who gave him a good impression, were only passers-by. Naturally, Xiao Yan did not bother to worry about them.
"The black-robed person is also a Dou Huang." Yao Lao said with a smile.
"So what if he was a Dou Huang? Wasn't Hai Bo Dong a Dou Huang in the past? But Queen Medusa still managed to turn it into that miserable state. " Xiao Yan laughed before he immediately mused, "But returning to the topic, why are they looking for Queen Medusa? Humans were the least favored creatures among the Snake-Man race. "
Yao Lao gently stroked his beard and said with a smile, "The previous middle-aged man is the person I mentioned earlier, the one who has a very strong Spiritual Perception. He must also be an Alchemist. "
An Alchemist? Hearing this, Xiao Yan was silent for a moment. After which, he quickly shouted involuntarily, "A Dou Wang level alchemist? How come? "
Seeing the uncertain expression on Xiao Yan's face, Yao Lao shook his head and smiled faintly. "My feelings won't be wrong. He is an alchemist. "
Seeing Yao Lao's gentle smile, Xiao Yan also slowly calmed down. He knit his brows tightly and softly said, "If he really is an alchemist, then with the strength of his Dou Wang, wouldn't he at least be a tier six alchemist? But in the Jia Ma Empire now, there was only one tier six alchemist! " Xiao Yan's eyes were getting smaller as he said those words. He let out a long sigh, as if spewing out all the shock in his heart. A while later, he finally whispered, "Don't tell me that the previous middle-aged man was Pill-King Gu He?"
"If that person is really Gu He, then it is no wonder that he is able to gather so many strong people." Yao Lao said with a smile. He knew very well what kind of interesting ability a tier six alchemist possessed.
"Hey. It was really unexpected "Xiao Yan shook his head and laughed softly. There was a strange and unknown expression on his face. He remembered that the Qi Gathering Powder that Nalan Yanran had taken when he cancelled the marriage had been refined by him.
"An alchemist suddenly gathered so many strong people to come to the desert and search for Queen Medusa. I think ... his intention was probably Heavenly Fire. I don't know how he got that information. " Yao Lao raised his head, looking at the horizon of the desert as he spoke with a smile.
Hearing this, Xiao Yan's expression changed. His fist suddenly stiffened. He has been trying hard for ‘Fire Green Lotus Core’. Anyone who intended to prevent him from obtaining it would be considered an enemy, even if this person was Pill-King Gu He who had a strong ability to gather people in the Jia Ma Empire.
"Teacher, let's move .." Xiao Yan's palm suddenly grabbed the heavy ruler that was inserted into the top layer of sand. He then sighed softly and said grimly, "Despite whether their motive is ‘Fire Green Lotus Core’ or not, we should hurry to the inner regions of the desert. If that Gu He really saw the flames, then I would let them fight amongst themselves like fish and shells before obtaining the flames. " TL: Let them fight and take the spoils when they are not able to
"Ke Ke, that too. Let's be fishermen once. " After pondering for a moment, Yao Lao smiled and nodded his head. His body then shook and incarnated into light before entering into the ring.
Xiao Yan stored the Heavy Xuan Ruler into the ring and pursed his lips. His back shook and the Purple Cloud Wings stretched out. They flapped slightly and his body slowly floated into the air. He lifted his head, looked at the silver moon and said softly, "Now the Mei Tribe should have turned into chaos as Gu He and the others passed by. We can also use this opportunity to walk in peace. I think Yue Mei will not stay inside the Tribe. He would probably go to the interior of the desert to pass on that information to Queen Medusa. "
"Yes, let's go. As we pass through the tribe, I'll help you hide your Qi. This, along with the dark sky, will allow us to successfully pass through it. " Yao Lao's voice was emitted from within the ring.
Nodding, Xiao Yan placed the ‘Energy Recovery Pill into his mouth. He flapped his wings violently and his body turned into a black shadow that once again flew towards the large tribe that stood on the main road under the dim moonlight.
After Xiao Yan ferociously flew across the sky for about half an hour, a huge fortress gradually appeared on the distant flat plains.
The fortress was brightly lit but the flickering flame light repeatedly revealed something disturbing.
As Xiao Yan flew closer, he could hear the sound of disturbance coming from within. At that moment, he rejoiced in his heart and calmly said, "It seems like the group from before is actually attacking from here …"
The city walls that were tens of meters high were filled with countless watchtowers. The tip of the pale purple arrow protruded out from the watchtower, emitting a thick and icy luster under the moonlight.
Seeing that extremely tight and tight defense, Xiao Yan involuntarily wiped away his cold sweat. With their defensive strength, even a Da Dou Shi or Dou Ling would be shot into a beehive if they were careless.
The defense of the fortress was extremely tight, but Xiao Yan rejoiced when he realized that this extremely tight defense had been forcefully breached, leaving behind a huge passageway. The watch towers that were near the passageway were all smashed into powder with an immense force. Clearly, these remains were the work of Gu He and the group before.
Perhaps it was because of this sudden destruction, but the entire great fortress had fallen into a state of panic. Using this panic situation to his advantage, Xiao Yan was fortunate to be able to pass through the heavily defended wall. He flew into the fortress through the sky and then flew towards the other end of the fortress.
As he flew high into the sky, Xiao Yan once again sensed the enormous size of the fortress. If one were to compare sizes, even the largest city Xiao Yan had ever visited, Black Stone City, would have difficulty comparing them.
"The eight great tribes are indeed the strongest forces of the Snake People." Xiao Yan was unable to hold an emotional breath as he flew at high speed through the night sky.
"We'll leave the fort. Careful. There were fewer broken watchtowers here and not much defensive power was lost. " While Xiao Yan sighed, Yao Lao's voice suddenly sounded in his heart.
Hearing this, Xiao Yan's expression became straight. His gaze swept over the high city walls in the distance and realized that the city walls there were not destroyed. There were only a few large crack lines climbing along the walls. Moreover, there were several hundred heavily armed Snake-People who, while carrying sharp spears in their hands, were patrolling.
"Aw"
Just as Xiao Yan was planning to attack through the last layer of defense at once, a strange roar that sounded like a mixture of wolf howls and fox cries suddenly sounded.
Hearing this roar, Xiao Yan's expression quickly changed. He raised his head and discovered that above his head, there was a large dark black eccentric bird flying around. Clearly, it was a kind of warning system installed by the Snake-People in the air.
"Warning! The warning! There's someone in the air. Spear thrower get ready, put poison on the spear and get ready to shoot! " Hearing the buzzing warning in the night sky, a cold loud voice immediately sounded from the city walls.
Upon hearing this command, the somewhat confused and vigilante Snake-People unit suddenly fell silent. They quickly applied the poison liquid, which they carried around the waist, to their flying spears. With ferocious expressions on their faces, they watched Xiao Yan who was flying wildly towards them.
"We have been found ..." Chief Xiao Yan felt a little numb as he was stared intently by several hundred gazes. Instantly, he did not have time to think of the huge dark blackbird swirling above his head. The Purple Cloud Wings flapped rapidly and its body turned into a streak of dark black light that flew towards the city walls.
"Move to where Wolf Owl is. Shoot her! " On the city wall, an ice Snake Woman with a graceful body stared at Xiao Yan, who was in midair, with furious but beautiful eyes. A moment later, he coldly and gently gave the order.
After the Women-Snakes gave the order, the several hundred heavily armed Snake-People on the city walls immediately shouted loudly. Their right side retreated and they twisted their bodies to the side. After which, they suddenly bowed forward. Instantly, the long spear in their poison-filled hands was thrown forward. Their sharp whistling sounds resounded throughout the night sky.
"This damn human, do they think our May Tribe is so easily bullied? They actually dare to repeatedly enter our city again! " The ice-cold Snake Woman clenched her teeth and furiously said as she used her cold thick eyes to look at Xiao Yan who was surrounded by long spear attacks. Gu He's group, which was the vanguard, had forcibly entered the city when there were no strong guards within the tribe. How could this Serpent Woman, who was clearly holding a high enough position, not be angry now that Xiao Yan had come himself as if to ridicule them.
Staring at the sky with an ice-cold gaze, the icy-cold Serpent Woman seemed to have seen the frightened face of someone who was about to die. His red lips lifted into bloodthirsty curls as he waited for a feast of blood in the air. He could clearly sense that the humans in the sky only had the strength of a Dou Shi. Although he did not understand why this Dou Shi could fly, it did not hinder the killing intent in his heart. A Dou Shi only had one end under the attack of this poison spear from all directions, which would be pierced into many small pieces of meat.
However, under the several hundred gazes on the city walls, a thick white flame suddenly surged from the man flying in the sky just as the poison spear was about to hit his body. After which he charged straight into the poison spear that shot at him from all directions. A moment later, the Snake-People watched with dumbfounded faces as a fire-man figure recklessly broke through a group of poison spears symbolizing death. His body did not make the slightest pause as he flew out of the city wall like lightning and finally quickly disappeared into the night.
Damn her!
As she blankly looked at the back that disappeared in an instant, the cold Serpent Woman on the city wall suddenly punched the wall in front of her. Instantly, many lines of cracks began to spread, shocking the nearby Snake-People warriors until they dared not speak.
"Clean the city, stay on the city wall. Immediately send the information to all the tribes of snake people nearby. At the same time, tell the leaders of the other seven great tribes. Ask them to immediately transmit their strongest power and surround this vile group of humans. Let's make sure they die in this desert! " The ice-cold Serpent woman stared at the pitch-black night sky. His cold voice was filled with killing intent.
