46: Yue Mei’s fear!

“Hehe, I didn't expect to encounter a Dou Wang-level powerhouse so soon after arriving in the great desert. Your Excellency must be one of the leaders of the Snake-People Tribe, right?”

Gu He's Dou Qi wings lightly vibrated behind him as he stepped forward, smiling as he looked at a charming snake-person in the distance, and said with a smile.

The snake-person's face was enchanting and alluring, and her figure was incredibly voluptuous and eye-catching.

Within her beautiful, diamond-shaped eyes, a hint of amorous moisture rippled.

“Who are you? Why have you come deep into our tribe at night? Don’t you know that this place is forbidden to you Human Race?”

The charming smile on Yue Mei’s pretty face had completely faded by now.

In its place was a chilling solemnity. Clearly, in front of the suddenly appearing formidable group, she had no leisure for jokes.

“We want to see the Queen!”

Gu He stated directly.

“You want to see Her Majesty the Queen?”

Upon hearing this, Yue Mei’s beautiful eyes immediately curved into a beautiful and dangerous arc, and she sneered, “Our Snake-People Tribe and your Human Race have been at odds for many years. What is there to discuss?”

“If you are sensible, I advise you to leave quickly. Otherwise, once the eight great leaders of my Snake-People Tribe gather, the number of powerhouses in the Jia Ma Empire will probably be greatly reduced.”

Yue Mei threatened.

“It seems there’s nothing to talk about!”

Gu He was clearly not going to retreat because of the other party’s threat. As his voice fell, the other two Dou Wangs beside him began to launch an attack on Yue Mei.

Yue Mei, seeing the unfavorable situation, chose to flee... At the oasis lake, the snake-people of the Mei-Snake Tribe, under the deterrence of the Lion King, did not dare to approach the oasis, only sending out intelligence.

A sixth-tier Demonic Beast, even if Yue Mei, the strongest leader in their Mei-Snake Tribe, were here, she probably wouldn't be able to stop him.

What's more, the leader of the Mei-Snake Tribe, Yue Mei, has already left.

The remaining Mei-Snake Tribe members could only be wary of the Lion King and Gu Fei's group.

Extremely vigilant gazes swept over them from time to time. Those snake-people who used to cruelly kill humans upon seeing them dared not rush over to attack.

As for Gu Fei's side, he only decided to set off after Xiao Yi Xian and Qing Lin had finished bathing and changed into clean clothes.

Xiao Yi Xian was delicate and gentle, while Qing Lin’s green eyes were cold, yet her whole person exuded a sense of obedience. Both of them, wearing the less conservative dresses of the desert, were beautiful in their own unique ways.

The desert was extremely hot. Although protected by Dou Qi, Xiao Yi Xian still found it troublesome and, imitating Qing Lin, coiled her long purple hair into a single braid, letting it hang from her shoulder from back to front.

Gu Fei, seeing her exceptionally gentle appearance, couldn't help but be momentarily stunned.

Xiao Yi Xian, originally wearing an open dress that revealed her fair, lotus-root-like arms, blushed shyly.

Seeing Gu Fei's gaze on her, her ear tips turned red, and she turned her head away, not daring to look at him.

[Xiao Yi Xian experienced shyness, emotional value +100]

Next, the three of them sat on the back of the Amethyst Winged Lion King and began to travel deeper.

As night fell, a massive tribal fortress slowly appeared on the distant horizon.

Inside the fortress, lights blazed brightly.

However, the flickering flames amidst the peace and tranquility revealed something unsettling.

Upon the massive city walls, dozens of meters high, countless arrow towers were densely packed.

The pale purple arrowheads, protruding from the arrow towers, gleamed with a chilling luster under the moonlight.

They were precisely and coldly aimed at every corner of the surroundings; once fired, anyone would be riddled with holes.

However, strangely, within this heavily guarded defensive perimeter, a huge passage had been forcibly breached.

Even more bizarrely, all the arrow towers near that massive passage had been smashed into smithereens by a powerful force from an unknown source.

Gu Fei, seeing this passage where the sturdy fortress had been forcibly breached from the outside, fell into thought.

“Looking at this situation, could it be that Gu He and his group went ahead and forcibly broke into the Mei-Snake Tribe’s fortress…”

Looking at the fortress ahead, Gu Fei murmured in his heart.

However, he remembered that in the original story, at this point in time, Gu He and the others should not have set off yet.

But from the traces of destruction, it could only be Gu He and his group.

Because no one else possessed such formidable strength, and powerhouses of this caliber wouldn't suddenly run deep into the desert and so precisely locate the Mei-Snake Tribe.

Therefore, it could only be Gu He, who coveted the Heavenly Flame, who, for some special reason, brought all of this forward.

However, Gu Fei soon stopped dwelling on it too much.

Perhaps his Transmigration to this world had caused some butterfly effects.

In that case, it was normal for some events to deviate, and he didn't need to delve so deeply.

Gu Fei looked up at the fortress ahead, thought for a moment, and decided he didn't need to be so timid, after all, this was the Snake-People Tribe's territory.

“Lion King, charge straight through, don’t stop…”

Gu Fei commanded the Lion King.

The Amethyst Winged Lion King's body paused, then, without reducing speed, it galloped straight towards the Mei-Snake Tribe.

Among the Snake-People Tribe.

The guards protecting the fortress initially didn't notice anything unusual until they saw the massive Demonic Beast flying in the distance, at which point they realized something was wrong.

“Stop it!”

One person shouted angrily.

Immediately after, cold arrows and countless poisoned spears quickly flew from the city wall.

The Lion King snorted disdainfully.

Were these snake-people looking down on it?

A few small, poisonous pieces of trash, yet they dared to dream of stopping it?

As the Amethyst Winged Lion King's wings flapped, a powerful hurricane swept forth.

The hurricane blew away the poisoned spears, and those attacks were completely unable to get close to its body.

The Lion King continued flying nonchalantly, completely ignoring these attacks.

Gu Fei was not a bloodthirsty person either.

He was forcibly intruding into someone else's tribe this time, so he didn't kill anyone.

He only let the Lion King fly over the fortress, causing no casualties to the snake-people.

After flying past the Mei-Snake Tribe, Gu Fei continued his journey.

Along the way, he encountered many snake-people trying to stop him.

However, those obstructions simply couldn't amount to anything.

The Amethyst Winged Lion King was high in the sky, and many attacks were launched from the ground, posing no threat to it at all… A day later, Medusa Holy City.

In the spacious and luxurious main hall, a graceful figure leaned back slightly against the chair, looking a little tired. Occasionally, her gaze lazily swept over the empty purple crystal throne above the high platform, and she couldn't help but shake her head helplessly.

Rubbing her smooth forehead with a slender hand, a look of joy suddenly appeared on the woman's pretty face. She looked up at the outside of the hall, as a dark black shadow shot in like lightning.

“Finally, he made it…”

Seeing the dark black shadow enter the hall, the woman couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.

“Yue Mei, what exactly happened?”

“Why did you issue three emergency alerts? Are those humans very strong?”

The figure who entered the hall was clearly a male snake-person, subtly exuding a fierce aura.

Glancing at this male snake-person, whose status in the tribe was comparable to her own, Yue Mei sighed softly and said languidly, “Very strong… I ran into them last night and fled in disarray. And, there’s more than just this one group of people!”

“Oh? Do you know their exact strength?” Hearing this, the male snake-person’s pupils constricted slightly. He walked to the center of the hall, sat down at the spacious table, his voice carrying a hint of barely concealed chill.

“One Dou Huang, three Dou Wangs, and four Dou Lings.”

Yue Mei pursed her sensual red lips.

When she spoke again, she sat up straighter, and her previously languid face became somewhat serious: “The most important thing is the other group of people!”
