Chapter 50: Snake-People Tribe's Foundation? Still Vulnerable!

The figure suspended in the air slowly became clear; a brilliant light shone in Yun Yun's beautiful eyes, and for the first time, she felt a sense of peace.

【Yun Yun experiences a sense of peace, Emotion Value +100】

She is the Sect Master of the Yunlan Sect, and she has always been the one protecting thousands of others.

She had almost never been protected by someone like this before; the only two times were both by Gu Fei.

What's more, Gu Fei still possessed a youthful face, yet his strength was so formidable.

【Yun Yun experiences a sense of gratitude, Emotion Value +100】

Gu Fei landed beside Yun Yun. Before he could speak, Yun Yun parted her lips first and thanked him sincerely: "Thank you, you saved me again!"

【Yun Yun experiences a sense of affection, Emotion Value +100】

Gu Fei gave her a faint smile, his demeanor so calm and detached that it was hard to believe he was the same person who had just protected her so domineeringly.

Yun Yun met his gaze, her eyes sparkling, and she lowered the hood on her head.

Originally, she had thought that after they parted ways, there would be no more intersection between them.

【Yun Yun experiences a sense of longing, Emotion Value +100】

Never did she expect that in this encounter with danger, it would be Gu Fei who saved her once again.

At this moment, in Yun Yun's heart, her affection for Gu Fei was almost at its limit.

This was the second time she had experienced a hero saving a beauty; although she did not understand what emotion was surging in her heart, she wanted to be closer to Gu Fei.

However, Yun Yun was not like Xiao Yixian or Qing Lin, who were unburdened and could be taken along; behind her stood an entire massive sect.

"A small matter!"

She stared intently at Gu Fei's face, her gaze almost greedy, yet she hid the joy of their reunion well.

She tucked the thin long sword to her side, on which there were still undried bloodstains.

He had happened to save her when she was severely injured and helped her break the Seal of the Amethyst Winged Lion King; the brief physical contact between them…

During this time apart from Gu Fei, whenever she thought of the events that occurred in the Magical Beast Mountain Range, her mind was filled with images of Gu Fei.

Gu Fei smiled with a feigned calm expression.

If not for the prompt from the system, Gu Fei would never have discovered the fluctuations in Yun Yun's heart.

That scorching palm seemed to press against her back once more, causing her heart to tremble.

Gu Fei heard the system's prompt and was stunned for a moment, his eyes changing slightly.

She carried too many burdens on her; she could not let go, and she could not put them down.

【Yun Yun experiences a sense of heart-fluttering, Emotion Value +100】

Her feelings for him were not even limited to affection; there was something more.

Her gaze was calm as she stood tall by his side; her small face, covered by the black hood, was cold and noble, and a cascade of dark hair fell down.

【Yun Yun experiences a sense of joy, Emotion Value +100】

Through the Emotion Value provided by Yun Yun, Gu Fei also understood some of her thoughts.

There was no need for Gu Fei to force Yun Yun to put everything down and follow him.

Therefore, after some idle chatter, Gu Fei intended to leave.

He and Yun Yun both had their own things to do; their fate could only support this brief intersection.

After this, they would be like two lines that no longer crossed, each walking their own path.

Gu Fei did not intend to say these words aloud.

Because he understood that Yun Yun must know, she just did not want to know.

As for the people of the Snake-People Tribe, who had been extremely arrogant, they now only looked at this mysterious powerhouse with trepidation, not daring to act rashly.

After all, Gu Fei's strength had already exceeded their imagination.

Even the combined Array of the five Dou Wangs, the Five Snake Poisonous Killing Seal, had been easily broken by this person.

Unless those tribal elders took action, none of them dared to go up and throw their lives away.

Among them, the older Snake-People leader, Yin Shi, looked at Gu Fei with trepidation before quickly rushing into the Holy City.

Here, after Gu Fei and Yun Yun finished their idle chatter, the two fell into a brief silence.

Yun Yun knew clearly that Gu Fei was leaving, yet she could not ask him to stay.

【Yun Yun experiences a sense of reluctance, Emotion Value +100】

But as she watched Gu Fei's figure, who was about to leave, he suddenly stopped.

【Yun Yun experiences a sense of confusion, Emotion Value +100】

Gu Fei's expression did not change as he told her in a low voice: "A few old fellows are coming to back up their young tribesmen."

Because he had just sensed that the four Dou Huang auras that had always been dormant in the Snake-People Holy City had suddenly begun to move.

Previously, no matter how they fought with the Snake-People Tribe, or how many Snake-People Gu He and Yun Yun had killed in the Holy City, those four Dou Huang auras had never moved.

Regarding these four, Gu Fei was very clear that they were the foundation of the Snake-People Tribe.

However, because these four were advanced in age, they would not easily take action; as long as it was not a critical moment, they would only stand by and watch.

Because if a great battle were to occur, it would inevitably deplete their vitality.

They never acted easily, which was also the reason why these four old fellows could live for so long.

Yun Yun furrowed her brows and looked toward the distant sky.

That was precisely the direction of the Snake-People Holy City.

Although her cultivation had reached the Dou Huang level, she was far inferior to those four old fellows.

Therefore, she could only perceive vague, powerful, and domineering auras rapidly approaching.

"My Snake-People Tribe is not to be bullied by anyone!"

Following a rather sharp voice, the Snake-People not far away raised their heads one after another, their faces filled with ecstasy and respect.

"So these four old things have finally decided they can't help but make a move."

Within Gu Fei's line of sight, four elderly Snake-People women were rapidly rushing out from the city.

In just an instant, four highly oppressive auras approached; the four grim-faced elderly Snake-People women stood proudly in mid-air, with wings formed from Dou Qi behind their backs.

Their eyes were all fixed tightly upon Gu Fei.

At this moment, Yun Yun, standing beside Gu Fei, muttered in disbelief: "Four Dou Huangs?"

"And the Snake-People Tribe is skilled in combined attack Arrays; the combined power of these four far exceeds that of a Dou Huang, and could even touch the realm of a Dou Zong! We are in trouble now."

Looking at the lineup that had appeared on the Snake-People side, even Yun Yun's pretty face revealed panic.

She looked at Gu Fei with some unease.

If it were just her, she would have no power to contend with these four.

On the other side, Gu He and his party, who had stopped fleeing because they thought the situation was settled after Gu Fei made his move, also had their expressions change drastically.

The information they had previously gathered regarding the Snake-People Tribe had not mentioned these four Dou Huangs in the slightest.

They had not expected the Snake-People Tribe's foundation to be so vast, possessing four Dou Huangs.

Moreover, with Gu He's discernment, he could naturally tell.

These four were not ordinary Dou Huangs, but were all outstanding figures among Dou Huangs.

Any one of these four Dou Huangs would be enough to crush the manpower Gu He had brought.

Not to mention that there was still a large Snake-People army over there.

Added to that, the Snake-People from the Eight Great Tribes were still continuously rushing to this location at this moment.

Gu He could not help but regret not having evacuated in time just now.

He sighed inwardly; escaping from here would likely be extremely difficult now.

However, while Yun Yun, Gu He, and the others were worried, Gu Fei's face remained calm.

He did not have the slightest ripple of emotion due to the sudden appearance of the four Dou Huangs.
