Chapter 46: Yue Mei's Apprehension!
"Heh, I didn't expect that having only just arrived in the great desert, I would actually encounter a powerhouse at the Dou Wang level. I presume Your Excellency must be one of the leaders of the Snake-People Tribe, right?"
Gu He lightly flapped the Dou Qi Wings behind his back, took a step forward, and looked at the enchanting Snake-Person in the distance with a smiling expression, smiling slightly.
That Snake-Person had a charming and enchanting face, and her figure was even more fiery and eye-catching.
Within those beautiful diamond-shaped eyes, ripples of spring-like wateriness were swaying.
"Who are you people? Why have you come to the depths of my tribe in the middle of the night? Don't you know that this place is forbidden for you humans to enter?"
The charming smile on Yue Mei's pretty face had completely faded at this moment.
Replacing it was a cold and stern air; clearly, in the face of this suddenly appearing terrifying lineup, she had no leisure to joke around.
"We wish to see the Queen!"
Gu He said straightforwardly.
"You wish to see Her Majesty the Queen?"
Upon hearing this, Yue Mei's beautiful eyes immediately curved into a pretty yet dangerous arc, and she sneered: "Our Snake-People Tribe and you humans have been at odds for many years; what else is there to talk about?"
"If you few are sensible, I advise you to leave quickly. Otherwise, once the eight great leaders of our Snake-People Tribe gather, the powerhouses of this Jia Ma Empire will likely shrink significantly."
Yue Mei threatened them.
"It seems there is nothing left to talk about!"
Gu He was clearly not going to retreat because of a threat from the other party. As his words fell, the other two Dou Wangs beside him began to launch a siege on Yue Mei.
Seeing that the situation was unfavorable, Yue Mei chose to flee.
……
On the side of the oasis lake, those Snake-People of the Charm Snake Tribe, under the intimidation of the Lion King, did not dare to approach the oasis and only sent information outward.
A Sixth Rank Magical Beast, even if their Charm Snake Tribe's most powerful leader, Yue Mei, were here, she would likely be unable to stop it.
What's more, the Charm Snake Tribe's leader, Yue Mei, had already left.
The remaining members of the Charm Snake Tribe could only remain on guard against the Lion King and Gu Fei's group.
With extremely vigilant gazes, they scanned them from time to time; those Snake-People who used to kill humans cruelly upon seeing them did not dare to rush over and initiate an attack at all.
As for Gu Fei's side, it was only after Xiao Yixian and Qing Lin had finished bathing and changed into clean clothes that he decided to set off.
Xiao Yixian was delicate and gentle, while Qing Lin had a pair of cold green eyes, yet her whole person exuded a sense of docility; the two of them wore dresses that were less conservative than those in the desert, and each was beautiful in her own way.
The desert was truly hot, and although they had Dou Qi protection, Xiao Yixian still found it troublesome, so she learned from Qing Lin and braided her long purple hair, letting it hang from her shoulder from back to front.
That exceptionally gentle appearance made Gu Fei pause for a moment when he first saw it.
Xiao Yixian had originally been wearing an open dress, revealing a pair of fair, lotus-root-like arms, and she blushed with some shyness.
Seeing Gu Fei's gaze fixed on her, the tips of her ears turned red, and she turned her head away, not daring to look at him.
【Xiao Yixian feels shy, Emotion Value +100】
Next, the three of them sat on the back of the Amethyst Winged Lion King and began to advance into the deeper regions.
As night fell, a massive tribal fortress slowly appeared on the distant horizon.
Inside the fortress, lights were bright.
However, the flickering firelight within this calm and peaceful scene revealed some restless things.
On top of the huge city wall, which was dozens of meters high, countless arrow towers were densely packed.
Those arrow tips, shimmering with a pale purple hue, protruded from the arrow towers and shone with a cold luster under the moonlight.
They were precisely and coldly aimed at every corner of the surroundings; once fired, no matter who it was, they would be riddled with holes.
However, strangely, within this strictly guarded perimeter, a huge passage had been forcibly destroyed.
And even more bizarrely, all the arrow towers near that huge passage had been smashed into pieces by a powerful force that came from who knows where.
Gu Fei saw from afar the passage where this sturdy fortress had been forcibly destroyed from the outside, and he was lost in thought.
"Looking at this situation, could it be that Gu He's party walked in front and forcibly broke into the Charm Snake Tribe's fortress..."
Looking at the fortress ahead, Gu Fei murmured in his heart.
However, he remembered that in the original work, at this point in time, Gu He and the others should not have set off yet.
But judging from the traces of destruction, it could only be Gu He's party.
Because others would not have such powerful strength, and a powerhouse with such strength would not suddenly run into the depths of the desert and find the Charm Snake Tribe so accurately.
Therefore, it could only be Gu He, who was plotting for the Exotic Fire, having moved everything forward for some special reason.
But soon, Gu Fei stopped dwelling on it too much.
Perhaps, by traveling to this world, he had triggered some butterfly effect.
Since that was the case, it was normal for the direction of some events to deviate; he did not need to delve into it so deeply.
Gu Fei raised his eyes to look at the fortress ahead, thought for a moment, and felt that he did not need to be so timid; after all, this was a Snake-People tribe.
"Lion King, just charge over, don't stop..."
Gu Fei ordered the Lion King.
The Amethyst Winged Lion King's body paused, and then, without slowing down, it sped straight toward the direction of the Charm Snake Tribe.
Within the Snake-People Tribe.
The guards defending the fortress did not notice anything unusual at first, until they saw the massive Magical Beast flying from afar, and only then did they realize something was wrong.
"Stop it!"
One person shouted angrily.
Immediately after, on top of the city wall, cold arrows and countless poison spears flew out rapidly.
The Lion King snorted disdainfully.
Were these Snake-People looking down on it?
Some poisonous little trash, and they dared to dream of stopping it?
As the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King flapped its wings, a powerful hurricane swept over.
The hurricane blew away those poison spears, and those attacks were completely unable to get near its body.
The Lion King continued to fly indifferently, not bothering to pay any attention to these attacks at all.
Gu Fei was not a bloodthirsty person either.
Since he was forcibly trespassing into someone else's tribe this time, he did not kill anyone.
He only let the Lion King fly over the fortress, causing no casualties to the Snake-People.
After flying over the Charm Snake Tribe, Gu Fei continued on his way.
Along the way, he encountered quite a few Snake-People blocking his path.
However, those obstructions were completely unable to amount to anything.
The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King was at a high altitude, and many attacks were launched from the ground, posing no threat to it at all.
……
One day later, Medusa Holy City.
Inside a spacious and luxurious grand hall, a beautiful figure leaned lightly against the back of her chair, looking slightly weary; she occasionally swept her lazy gaze toward the empty purple crystal throne on the high platform, unable to help but shake her head helplessly.
Rubbing her smooth forehead with a slender hand, a flash of joy suddenly appeared on the woman's pretty face; she raised her head to look outside the grand hall as a pitch-black shadow shot in like lightning.
"You've finally arrived..."
Seeing the pitch-black shadow enter the grand hall, the woman could not help but heave a sigh of relief.
"Yue Mei, what exactly has happened?"
"To think you issued three martial law orders in a row? Are those humans very strong?"
The figure who entered the grand hall was clearly a male Snake-Person, faintly exuding an aura of ferocity.
Glancing at this male Snake-Person, whose status in the tribe was on par with her own, Yue Mei sighed softly and said lazily, "Very strong... I ran into them last night and fled in a panic, and furthermore, there is more than just this one group of people!"
"Oh? Do you know their exact strength?" Upon hearing this, the male Snake-Person's pupils constricted slightly; he walked to the center of the hall and sat down before the spacious table, his voice revealing an undisguised chill.
"One Dou Huang, three Dou Wangs, and four Dou Lings."
Yue Mei pursed her sexy red lips.
When she spoke again, her posture straightened slightly, and her originally lazy expression became a bit more serious: "The most important thing is the other group of people!"
