129: Chapter 129 The Queen Has No Contrast! The Butterfly Is the Contrast

“It's a Dou Huang!”

On the Golden Raging Lion energy body, Hai Bodong felt an aura fluctuation of the same realm.

The previous Giant Green Flame Eagle was cast by a Peak Dou Wang expert through Beast Fire; combined with elemental suppression, it had barely managed to suppress him.

This Golden Raging Lion was a Dou Technique of a Dou Huang expert, and it was of the violent metal attribute, making it even more difficult to resist.

Hai Bodong decided to accept his fate, but at that moment, a huge crack suddenly appeared in the void.

“Swish!”

The aggressive Golden Raging Lion energy body was directly swallowed by the pitch-black crack, and then everything returned to silence.

Hai Bodong: !?

All the Dou Wangs and Dou Huangs present: !!!

“Tearing through the void, a Dou Zong!”

The shocked voice of a middle-aged man rang out from a distance.

In the next moment, a ripple appeared in space, and a woman wearing a black one-piece long dress appeared out of thin air.

Her long dress completely covered her body below the neck, revealing only a pair of fair jade-like feet and an exquisite swan neck.

A lazy smile played on her cold and beautiful face, yet it felt brighter than the sunlight.

To everyone's surprise, she was actually standing directly in the void.

“Hai Bodong, you're not good enough.”

The stunning woman stretched lazily, her tone also very languid.

Her dress moved slightly with her actions, the lower half splitting gently to reveal a straight, slender, and fair thigh.

“Uh...” Hai Bodong's lips twitched, not knowing what to say.

But in his heart, stormy waves surged.

This 'female devil' had actually broken through to the Dou Zong level.

Was little friend Gu Han alright!?

“Cai Die, don't speak of Old Hai that way.” Space rippled again beside Cai Die, and Gu Han, with blue and white wings condensed on his back, flew out, his voice serious. “Fighting five Dou Wangs alone, including a Sixth-Rank Alchemist who controls Beast Fire, plus a six-star Dou Huang, and not being defeated for so long is already very impressive.”

“I know, Master.” Cai Die pursed her lips slightly, seemingly dissatisfied that Gu Han was lecturing her for someone else's sake.

“Master!?”

The experts all around gasped in unison.

Such a stunning female Dou Zong cultivator actually called a youth 'Master'.

What exactly was this youth's background? Could he be a Personal Disciple from a top-tier power on the continent!?

Hai Bodong was even more shaken, shouting in his heart, “Impossible!”

How could Queen Medusa have such girlish expressions and gestures? How could her tone be like this?

But looking at her face, it was clearly Queen Medusa. Had she been possessed!?

And the name Gu Han gave Queen Medusa was clearly Colorful Glass.

Why has it become Cai Die now!?

“With our current relationship, it's no longer appropriate for you to call me Master.” Gu Han turned his head to look at Cai Die, his tone carrying a unique warmth and a smile. “Just call me by my name from now on.”

Cai Die was his first woman in this world, and she held a different significance for him.

Furthermore, he could trust this woman absolutely; she had a bright future and great strength, capable of keeping pace with him.

“In private, I'll call you by your name, or Die'er could call you husband if she wants.” Cai Die winked playfully, her hands behind her back as she smiled brightly. “In front of others, I'll still call you Young Master, and in front of Colorful Glass, I'll call you Master.”

Gu Han: “...”

Colorful Glass has no gap.

But Cai Die is the complete opposite of Colorful Glass.

“As you wish.” Gu Han chuckled somewhat helplessly.

“Heehee, then Young Master.” Cai Die's gaze swept over everyone around. “Does Die'er need to make them all stay?”

The killing intent released at that moment made everyone's skin crawl. They immediately gathered together, their eyes extremely wary.

“This Young Master!” A somewhat handsome middle-aged man with a unique charm cupped his hands in greeting. “I am Mu Xiusi, a Sixth-Rank Alchemist. I sensed the aura of the Yin Yang Twin Flames and invited a group of experts to accompany me here.”

“Since the Yin Yang Twin Flames already have a master, we shall leave immediately.”

Gu Han glanced at Hai Bodong and shook his head slightly. “Leaving just like that? I'm afraid that won't do.”

Mu Xiusi's face darkened, but after feeling Cai Die's gaze, he took out a jade bottle from his storage ring. “In this jade bottle is a top-quality fifth-grade pill, the unceasing creation minor restoration pill. Even for a severed limb, as long as it hasn't been too long, taking this can allow the limb to be reattached and recover from most of the damage.”

“It also restores abnormal conditions within the body...”

“I see that the Ice Emperor's cultivation has regressed, likely due to some kind of seal. This pill can help His Excellency return to his prime.”

Hearing this, Gu Han didn't decide immediately but looked at Hai Bodong. “Old Hai, what do you think?”

“Fine!” Hai Bodong was not greedy and nodded in agreement.

Getting a fifth-grade pill that could restore him to the strength of a five-star Peak Dou Huang just for fighting this battle was worth it!

Gu Han looked back at Mu Xiusi, his eyes filled with pressure. The latter tactfully threw the pill to Hai Bodong.

Once the latter confirmed there was no problem with the pill, Mu Xiusi prepared to leave.

But just then, Gu Han spoke again. “I didn't say you could leave!”

Even Mu Xiusi, who was highly respected even by the Three Elders of Mu Lan, had an extremely ugly expression upon hearing this. “I have seen your portrait, the genius disciple of the Cloud Mist Sect, Gu Han.”

“I am willing to back down out of respect for Queen Medusa, who has broken through to Dou Zong. Even if your Sect Master of Yunlan Sect, Yun Yun, were here, she would have to give me some face.”

“This is the Mu Lan Empire, not the Jia Ma Empire, and certainly not the Cloud Mist Sect. Do not make a mistake.”

This was true. With Mu Xiusi's status as a Sixth-Rank Alchemist, Dou Huangs and even Dou Zongs from several surrounding empires would show him some respect.

Furthermore, they were currently in the Mu Lan Empire. Mu Xiusi could call upon a group of Dou Wangs and Dou Huangs at any time, or even the Three Elders of Mu Lan, who could contend with a Dou Zong when working together.

“The unceasing creation minor restoration pill is good, but it's only enough for either yourself or everyone else but you to leave.” Gu Han's expression didn't change at all as he spoke as if to himself. “How do you choose?”

“You mean you want this seat to give you another similar fifth-grade pill?” Mu Xiusi weighed his options in his heart.

Since the Cloud Mist Sect had Pill King Gu He, a Sixth-Rank Alchemist, as a Guest Elder, it was normal for Gu Han not to show him any face.

“What, do you have an objection?” Cai Die took a step forward, and tiny cracks appeared in the void.

Gu Han reached out to stop her and said, “I don't actually need a fifth-grade pill. I heard that Master Mu once obtained a piece of beast skin said to be related to Heavenly Flames. Just hand that over to me.”

“You know the secret behind the beast skin?” Mu Xiusi's gaze shifted.

He had obtained this beast skin over ten years ago when he had just become a Fourth-Rank Alchemist, and he had been unable to crack its mystery for all these years.

If the beast skin itself weren't unusual—likely coming from some Rank 7 Magic Beast—he would have doubted the truth of its connection to Heavenly Flames.

“I do.” Gu Han naturally wouldn't tell the truth, so he spoke with half-truths. “After refining the Yin Yang Twin Flames, I can feel the special energy fluctuations in that beast skin. This skin is related to a natural treasure that can enhance the grade and energy of Heavenly Flames.”

“To someone who possesses a Heavenly Flame, this item is priceless, but to someone without one, it's just like a piece of scrap paper.”

“This item is useless to you, but very attractive to me. Using it as a bargaining chip for your safe departure isn't too much to ask, is it?”

“Not at all, not at all.” Cai Die immediately chimed in, looking at Mu Xiusi with a fierce gaze. “If you're unwilling, I can just take it myself.”

Gu Han: “...”

As a hype-man, Cai Die was quite excellent!
